David

 * I'm so glad you're here. We have a lot to talk about. So much to say tonight.


 * Each one of us is on a journey and we feel it's important to be on this journey with the people you love.


 * It's too big for any of us alone.

Will

 * Maybe I wasn't prepared to be here tonight.


 * It's not about grief or counseling, or family. It's about fucking denial.


 * Something dangerous is going on, and we're all just ignoring it because David brought some good wine!

Eden

 * Grief, anger, depression, abuse... it's all just chemical reactions.

Pruitt

 * Forgiveness doesn't have to wait. I'm free to forgive myself and so are you. It's a beautiful thing. It really is.

Dialogue

 * Kira: Will. Will. Hey. I asked if you were okay.
 * Will: Sorry.
 * Kira: You know, we don't have to do this. We can just go home.
 * Will: I'll be fine.
 * Kira: [looking at their invitation] God, this thing is so thick. Official.
 * Will: Maybe they're overcompensating. It's kind of hard to call everybody up out of the blue after two years.


 * Will: You look different, Edie.
 * Eden: I am different. I'm free. All that useless pain, it's gone. It's something anyone can have, Will, and I want you to have it too.


 * Miguel: Will thinks you guys are on pills. Figuratively.
 * David: You think we're crazy?
 * Will: I-I never said that.
 * David: It's okay, I'm not offended. A lot of people think we're crazy. But I doubt they're as happy as we are.
