Carly: I love Jax, and I know he loves me.

Diane: I don't dispute that, but are you prepared for the financial cost of dragging out this divorce?


Jax: All I'm asking you is that you stall the divorce.

Alexis: Indefinitely?

Jax: Well, for as long as it takes.


Carly: Today was a breakthrough. Jax finally heard me.


Jax: I'm not ready to stop being Carly's husband.


Alexis: You're my closest friend, and I happen to think you're the most wonderful man on the planet. And honestly, I think it's doubtful that I would consider any Woman worthy of you.

Jax: You've warned me about Carly before. I heard you. I understand your concerns. I do.

Alexis: Despite her best intentions, can she really be trusted?


Diane: Jax could easily realize that you are intentionally stalling the divorce.

Carly: So, we'll have to go for something big, something he wants.

Diane: Something of material value.

Carly: Something on an emotional level.

Diane: And according to my records, that something should be –

Diane and Carly: The Silent Lady.


Alexis: I think that you need to consider the possibility that Carly may be incapable of a mutually supportive relationship.

Jax: Carly loves me, okay? I'll be happier with her than anyone else.


Carly: Jax named the Silent Lady after me, but his name is on the paperwork. It's perfect. Tell him I want it.

Diane: Consider it done.

Carly: I knew you were the perfect lady for the job.

Diane: It's what keeps me in shoes. Let's just hope it's enough to accomplish our goal.

Carly: Jax's parents had an amazing relationship, and I know Jax wants that for himself. He'll give our marriage another try.

Diane: If he does, it may very well be his last try.


Jax: Carly and I have had such wonderful times together.

Alexis: As opposed to the not wonderful times?

Jax: Well, I mean, they outweigh the bad ones. We had wonderful vacations, trips to Montreal. We had picnics in the park, sailing the Silent Lady.

Alexis: I just don't want to see my friend get hurt again.

Jax: Yeah, that makes two of us.


Diane: Jax has reached the end of the line with you, Carly, and I must say, I wholeheartedly agree with him.

Carly: You're supposed to be my lawyer.

Diane: But if you throw Jax over for Sonny again, you're going to have to find yourself a new lawyer, because you will deserve exactly what you get.


Alexis: I just got a call.

Diane: What is going on?

Alexis: I just got a call. There's a suspect in custody, and the FBI took jurisdiction.

Diane: But on what grounds do they have for arresting Spinelli?

Alexis: Violation of the homeland security act, treason, and espionage.

Diane: Oh, come on, not to put too fine a point on it, but Spinelli would be hard-pressed to hurt a fly.

Alexis: That's true, which is why I suspect he's merely a means to an end.


Diane: I assume that the FBI is hoping that this is going to lead to a conviction for Jason. But it could be argued that anything on Spinelli's computer is his own work and does not implicate Jason.

Alexis: My guess is they're trying to persuade him to testify against Jason.

Diane: I doubt that Mr. Grasshopper would ever consider such a thing.

Alexis: You're his attorney, maybe you should let him know it might be in his best interest. Good luck.

Jason: Where's Spinelli?

Alexis: He's in the interrogation room, Jason. Who you are and what you do, I don't think has ever been real to Spinelli until this moment.

Jason: How bad? How bad is this?

Diane: It's bad, Jason. The FBI alleges that Spinelli has hacked into multiple law enforcement databases, defense grids, tax returns. You name it. The list goes on.

Jason: Do they have proof?

Diane: If they do, then Spinelli may very well be beyond our help.
