‘The Affair’

Season 3, Episode 9 -  Aired March 7, 2017

Moira spends a boozy evening with Roland at a municipal conference. Meanwhile, Alexis wonders whether Patrick has his eye on David as they set up the general store.

Quote from Alexis

Alexis: This is a actually a great idea, David. Consolidating all of your products under one label instills brand recognition and creates synergy.
David: Um, I'm sure you're very excited about all the new words you're learning in your high school intro to business course, but I think a more effective use of your time right now, would be to go and get the hand cream that I asked you to get ten minutes ago.
Alexis: I got the hand cream.
David: Yeah. The box of hand cream. I asked you to get the box of hand cream, not sample the hand cream.
Alexis: That's like 53 pounds.

Quote from Roland

Moira: In the diamond club? That sounds grand.
Roland: It's the hotel bar. They have a special RAMC cocktail. It's a sparkling white Russian. The trick is to get it down before it curdles.
Moira: As appealing as you make that sounds, Roland, I think I'll just go to my room.

Quote from David

Patrick: There's a lot of stuff in here, David. You don't wanna spend too much money up front.
Alexis: Yeah, that's not good, David.
Patrick: You have to be prepared to survive a year without making any profit.
Alexis: Actually, the textbooks now say eighteen months.
David: Well, what are the textbooks saying about curating a selection of products from local vendors and selling them on consignment in a one-stop-shop retail environment, that benefits the vendor and the customer?
Alexis: Well, I don't have my textbook on me.
Patrick: I stand corrected.

Quote from Johnny

Johnny: I mean, I'm- I'm hearing about this for the first time.
Jocelyn: Moira didn't tell you?
Johnny: You know, we chatted this morning about how successful the night was, but sleeping with your husband didn't really come up as one of the reasons the night was so successful.
Jocelyn: And we probably shouldn't read anything into the fact that for some reason, Moira decided to hide this from you.
Johnny: Oh, no, no. I wouldn't say "hide." No, no. Because Moira was so exhausted when she got in this morning.
Jocelyn: Maybe she was exhausted because she was up all night with her mitts all over-
Johnny: No! No. No! No. I know Moira and she would never in a million years ever sleep with... Anyone. Else.

Quote from Jocelyn

Jocelyn: It's just that I know what it's like to be in bed with a naked Roland Schitt, and I am powerless against that.
Johnny: He was naked?
Jocelyn: He sleeps naked every night. Do you wanna order some thing to put chocolate sauce on?
Johnny: No.

Quote from Alexis

Alexis: Um, David, I can swing by the store and help out after school, if you want. I also may need some more of that lip balm that I liked.
David: Okay. Um, I think we've had enough of your help. And unless you planning on purchasing that lip balm you're not getting the lip balm.
Alexis: Okay. It's called sweat equity, David. I learned about this week. And that's when you help someone out and then they give you lip balm or whatever else you might need in exchange for your time and energy.
David: I think you might actually need to break a sweat, in order to earn sweat equity.
Alexis: Okay, what if I got Patrick to break a sweat for me. That's called outsourcing. Outsourcing...
David: Are you passing this economics course?
Alexis: Yeah. Yes, I'm pretty sure.

Quote from Alexis

David: Um, if you really want the lip balm that bad there are a few things around the store that I could use your help with. Just an FYI, Patrick won't be there. So there won't be anybody for you to flirtatiously boss around.
Alexis: Okay, I hate to break this to you, David, but there will always be somebody for me to flirtatiously boss around.

Quote from Patrick

Patrick: You know I've been thinking about all this and these products that Alexis was showing me yesterday are actually really impressive, I mean the whole model is actually very sustainable.
David: Thank you.
Patrick: But I think you're gonna need more start-up money.
David: Oh. More start-up money. Um, and where do you think I'll get that money?
Patrick: Well, when you're supporting local business, there are grants that you can apply for. And I would be happy to assist you with those applications.
David: Well, that is very, um... Very generous.
Patrick: Well, I wouldn't be doing it for free. See, if these grants came through, you'd have the money to start paying me.
David: Okay.
Patrick: Um, I really think you have something here, David. You just, you just need some help. You need a lot of help.

Quote from Patrick

David: Well, uh, then yes I am open to entertaining your investment offer.
Patrick: Great. And in the interest of us potentially working together, I did want to come clean about something.
David: Okay.
Patrick: [sighs] I, um... I actually picked out that frame.
David: I see. So thank you for making it very clear that I will be making the creative decisions for the store. Um, and I guess you can handle all the business stuff.
Patrick: I'm very comfortable with that.
David: Okay. Um, and you do know that if the grant money doesn't come through, then I won't...
Patrick: Oh, I'm gonna get the money.

Quote from Roland

Roland: Johnny, me and six of my closest friends were hoping we could have a little chat.
Johnny: Well, it's awfully late.
Roland: Johnny, I'm talking about the beer.
Johnny: No, I know, I know, you're talking about the beer. It's just that Moira's in the shower. She's been showering most of the day, actually.
