No, Ryan. You are not the victim here. You made it so that I believed everything you said. So I could never trust anyone else. You made me think that I didn't deserve any better. You made me think that I didn't want any better. You made me okay with being a dirty little secret because I was a 17-year-old girl from a poor family swept off her feet by some rich, older, married man. Because of you, I don't know how to be in a real relationship. It's all warped in my head because I thought that the way we were was the way things are supposed to be. I can't even hold a guy's hand in public because you taught me the wrong rules.

George

Nancy: You killed Owen.
Josh: Well, if your boyfriend had just sent you the text like I asked him to, I would've let him go.
Nancy: You used him to lure me to you.
Josh: I tried. But, he wouldn't do it. He fought me, but I had to keep him quiet. It wasn't easy. He seemed to care more about you than his own life.

George: Now I know I deserve whatever the hell I want.
Nick: And, what's that?
George: You. Us. And not just some on the side version of us. You holding my hand in the center of town. So much PDA that the world is gonna barf. I guess I just got so used to being the girl you keep a secret. Not the girl you take to dinner.
Nick: Well, then I'll make reservations.

Ace: I know lately you've been pummeled by life. Everything you've learned about your parents, and now...if you ever want to talk about anything, I'm here.
Nancy: I really appreciate that. If I find the words, I will share them with you.

Nancy: Yeah, Lucy was pregnant. You guys were together on New Years Eve of 1999. Her due date was late September 2000. She died August 31st.
Ryan: Maybe she had the baby early, you know? She put it up for adoption?

Owen: I'm flying back to New York tonight. Why don't you come with me? I think after everything that's happened you deserve a few personal days.
Nancy: Yeah. Yeah, I do deserve that.

This is a picture of Lucy as a baby from our yearbook. Compare and contrast. You look like you could be twins, Nancy. Why is that?

Ryan

Nancy: I know what it feels like now. To have a secret that you don't want anybody to know, because if they find out it'll change anything.
Carson: I was afraid I was going to lose you.
Nancy: Keeping the secret changes everything, too.

Carson: Lucy's baby thrived. She grew up to be whip-smart and compassionate and kind and endlessly curious. And she loves solving mysteries.
Nancy: She's me. The baby is me.

Carson Drew did not kill Lucy Sable. She took her own life. And for twenty years, we told ourselves a story of a mysterious killer, when really the killer was us. This town. But I promise to remember the girl who lived, not the girl who died.

Abe: Who are you?
Ace: We're the busboys.
John: I'm the senior busboy.

Ace: Bone time.
John: It's pronounced forensic analysis.
