Whatever mistakes you made, they were yours to make, but now it's my time to make my own.
Emilio
Val's beside herself mami. And she lost had parents, and she's beside herself, and I need you to find a way to make her need you less.
Beto
You can't expect me to live in your house, run your restaurant, raise your children and leave me no room to have anything or anyone of my own.
Emilio
All our goodbyes so many times a day. They take every inch of space. Can you help me with that you think Valentina? Can you help me so I'm not just living to hear you and see you? Maybe that will make me strong enough to be in the world a little more.
Gloria
Val: I was really nice of you to help him get a job.
Lucia: You sound surprised. I'm a nice person.
Val, look at me. I have status. I'm safe. You're safe. Were all safe.
Emilio
Vanessa: Is there something you'd like to ask me, Beto?
Beto: Is there something you would like to tell me, Vanessa?
She has something I want. That's worth a lot of money, and maybe it's the only thing in her life she has to sell.
Matt
Emilio: Don't give me that two families bullshit, Uncle Louie. You took advantage of us the entire time. Because my father had no choice but to say yes and thank you, and keep it to himself.
Louie: That's not how your father saw it. He knew we were friends.
Emilio: Friends? My father thought everybody was his friend. Friends don't charge 30% of a bar receipt for 16 years.
Beto: Why do you assume the worst of people? That no one can be on our side? Not everyone is out to screw us.
Emilio: Our parents were deported, Be. So yeah, I'm allowed to see the world as full of people not on our side.
Vanessa: It's all those phone calls with your parents. When she can't reach them, her anxiety spikes, and then she crawls into bed with you. And then the next day, you're exhausted, and it's that much easier for you to pass her off on them again.
Beto: I don't do that. OK, maybe sometimes.
Vanessa: You know without meaning to, when you send her off, what you're telling her is that's where she'll find her comfort. And what she gets from her parents over the phone a country away will never be enough to fully sustain her. It's not you she needs less of, Beto
Emilio: Are you available to work nights and weekends?
Lucia: He's available all the time.
Emilio: I'm sorry who is being interviewed here?
