- Victoria Grayson: [gasps] Charlotte. Oh, my, I wasn't expecting you for a couple of weeks.
- [hugs her daughter, kisses her]
- Charlotte Clarke: Well, apparently we no longer own property in Paris, which I loved discovering at 3 a.m. after chartering a car from Brussels.
- Victoria Grayson: Darling, I'm sorry nobody told you, but the European market is very strong right now.
- Charlotte Clarke: As is your stable boy, it seems.
- Nolan Ross: I guess sometimes payback's not a bitch. Although I imagine it will be for New York's first and worst family. What do you have on tap?
- Emily Thorne: A long summer of fun.
- Nolan Ross: Beginning with tomorrow's Memorial Day party?
- Emily Thorne: And if everything goes as planned, it'll be the last one the Graysons ever attend.
- [clinks Nolan's glass with devilish smile]
- Emily Thorne: I hope you didn't cut your trip short just so you could make my Memorial Day party.
- Charlotte Clarke: No, I'm home because my lovely mother has left me no other monetary option.
- Emily Thorne: Have you seen her?
- Charlotte Clarke: Seen her? I almost caught Lady Chatterley with her lover.
- Emily Thorne: Lover?
- Charlotte Clarke: More like boy toy actually. I think he's even staying at the house.
- Victoria Grayson: [looking up from playing the piano] Emily. It's a shame you still feel the need to drop by unannounced.
- Daniel Grayson: I didn't hear you come in last night.
- Emily Thorne: Um, I got a late start leaving the Hamptons, dropped in on your Mom for a goodwill call.
- Daniel Grayson: Yeah? How is the witch?
- Emily Thorne: She actually said she'd come today.
- Daniel Grayson: Really? It seems like we're all doing better apart than together.
- Emily Thorne: It's been a long time, Daniel. What could go wrong?
- Conrad Grayson: [to Charlotte, who said she's proud of him] You can't imagine what it's like for me to hear that. I'm proud of you too, kitten, especially after everything you've been through.
- Charlotte Clarke: [at South Fork Inn, Patrick comes out of the shower, to find unexpected visitor] I hope you don't mind if I let myself in.
- [rises from the bed]
- Charlotte Clarke: My family is paying for this suite after all.
- Patrick Osbourne: [towel around his hips] What are you doing here?
- Charlotte Clarke: Exactly what I was going to ask you. Though I guess I know what you were doing at my house.
- Patrick Osbourne: Charlotte, you don't understand.
- Charlotte Clarke: And when I tell my father about you, he'll squash you like a bug.
- Patrick Osbourne: Your father knows I exist.
- Charlotte Clarke: Who the hell do you think you are?
- Patrick Osbourne: I'm your brother.
- Charlotte Clarke: [whispers] What?
- Patrick Osbourne: Patrick. I'm your brother.
- Charlotte Clarke: Well, I guess it's typical. Daniel and I go away for a couple of months, and my mother buys our replacement.
- Patrick Osbourne: And I'm sorry you have such a low opinion of your mother. She's been nothing but gracious, generous, kind.
- Charlotte Clarke: [scoffs] Well, if you think... you're just gonna enjoy the perks without the misery, you're wrong. My mother will draw you in, then destroy you. It's what she does.
- [as she leaves:]
- Charlotte Clarke: And if she doesn't, I will.
- Patrick Osbourne: Charlotte!
- [but she's off, slamming the door]
- Victoria Grayson: You have no idea what you've done.
- Charlotte Clarke: Since you're obviously much happier with your other children, I'm moving out.
- Victoria Grayson: Fine.
