Black Sails -
1. Jack Rackham: "I watched him defeat Edward Teach, in battle...outnumbered and through sheer force of will, saw his bloodlust with my own eyes. That man will never surrender his position here. He will never allow himself to be defeated by you or I. Not because we bribed him, not because Eleanor Guthrie told him so. He simply will not allow it to happen. I don’t know where that man went or what designs drew him there. But this I know: Woodes Rogers will be returning. And this fight isn’t nearly over." (Milo)

It's my psychology.” Oliver: “Monster as metaphor: I like it, but wrong. It's part of you, but not like a symptom. More like a parasite.” (Nirat and Milo)
3. Syd: “I was looking for the man I loved or did I just love the idea of him, the face he showed me?” (Nirat and Milo)
4. Oliver: "There's good news and there's bad news. The bad news is, it's not the drug. You're here, in the astral plane. You went too far in the make believe and got lost in your mind, consciousness, and now you're trapped in this, no place. Where every day is the same, where you can imagine yourself a kingdom. but nothing is ever real." David: "And what's the good news?" Oliver: "I'm not alone anymore." (Milo)

Harvey: "You don't know that." Mike: "Yes, I do and if you don't get that, then she's got you right where she wants you." Harvey: "So you're just gonna sit there tomorrow and let her take everything away from you?" Mike: "She's not taking anything away. She's keeping things exactly the way they are." Harvey: "You mean working for that clinic." Mike: "Harvey, I'm lucky to still have a job at that clinic. So tomorrow morning, I'm gonna go in there with my head held high. But what I'm not gonna do is let her strip you of everything that you are." (Laura)



Supergirl -
1. Maggie: "I'm here. You can tell me anything. What happened with your Dad?" (Donna) ~ A teary eyed Alex looked up, uttered a heavy sigh, then a shuddered sob, and then a complete emotional collapse into Maggie's arms with heart rending sobs. Without a single word Alex told Maggie how completely devastated she was by her father's betrayal. Chyler's Leigh's face spoke volumes!
