LATE NIGHT WITH SETH MEYERS

PRESUMED INNOCENT
“That I’m there at all, that tells the jury that I believe in my husband’s innocence. I need to be credible but for me to be credible I need to be truthful, and that is what I’ll be in that room. I will let them see my truth – that I am horrified, that I am sickened, that I am repulsed by such depravity. That I am offended by the mere notion that the father of my children could be responsible for such depravity. This is the darkest hour of my f—king life. I will not pretend otherwise.”

LAND OF WOMEN

“Excuse me. When I jumped his bones he was still in the seminary.”
Julia (Carmen Maura) makes an important distinction
LOVE ISLAND USA
“I don’t think I’m toxic. I think that I try to hold myself accountable as much as I possibly can. I’m just dramatic. I’ll take ownership on that part. But suck my d—k. Whatever you’ve heard about me, times it by a million. And if you think it’s bad, make it worse.”
Leah responds to a mean tweet calling her toxic
EVIL

Alys (Gayle Rankin) and Daemon (Matt Smith) get acquainted on an eerie evening at Harrenhal
THE BOYS
“Can you pick me up some Sugarfish?”
“No. We’ve talked about this. I can’t take part in the slaughter of albacore. One of my ride-or-dies is albacore.”

“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“‘Sometimes the way you get them is the way you lose them.’”
“Why are you quoting Lisa Vanderpump?”
