Quote from Twyla

Twyla: Alexis, between us, I don't do this job for the money.
Alexis: Okay, well, if you don't do this for money I'm scared to know what you do do for money.
Twyla: Okay, now that you're leaving, can you keep a secret?
Alexis: Depends on how dark it's gonna get, but yes.
Twyla: I won some money in the lottery a few years ago.
Alexis: Oh my God, Twy! Go you! Why did you not tell me this before?
Twyla: Well, because you guys had just gotten here and, and you had just lost all your money. Well, what was I gonna say? I just won $92 million?
Alexis: You won $92 million?
Twyla: Oh, no. Sorry.
Alexis: Okay. Okay, because I literally was about to pass out.
Twyla: Yeah. No, no. I split the $92 million with another guy.

Quote from Twyla

Alexis: Twy, what are you doing here? You could be anywhere, doing anything.
Twyla: I have everything I need right here. And if I've learned anything from how my mom spent the money I gave her, it's that money can buy a lot of snowmobiles, but it can't buy happiness. So it's about how you live your life. You know, doing what makes you smile. And being here, getting to hear your stories over the past few years, even the scary ones, that makes me smile.

Quote from Moira

Moira: John, considering I'll have some time to fritter once we're there, do you think you might want to put me to work?
Johnny: Well, I didn't know that would be of interest to you, Moira. But I'll see if I can get you something. Remember when you were the Rose Video spokesperson that one year?
Moira: How could I not? Oh, that photo of me sunbathing atop a giant VHS tape, was a staple of Times Square for a whole season.
