Good Trouble
Tuesdays 10:00 PM on FreeformMariana Adams Foster Quotes
Joaquin: I can't be casual with you. Not as long as you have these unresolved feelings for Evan. I can't.
Mariana: Of course.
Joaquin: I'm sorry that I'm having a hard time letting go of looking for Madison. Do you really think she wrote her parents that letter?
Mariana: I guess I need to believe it because this is all getting a little overwhelming. I'm sorry that I said that you're an angry person.
Mariana: Former lovers Mariana and Joaquin are suppressing their PTSD by playing amateur detectives.
Joaquin: All while denying their obvious sexual chemistry. Just bump uglies already and get one with it.
Mariana: Maybe this is becoming an obsession that we're both using to avoid dealing with the fact that Evan was shot, and it could have been any one of us.
Joaquin: This obsession saved my sister from Silas, so if I didn't go after this obsession --
Mariana: You know what? She moved on. Maybe that's part of why Jenna left. She couldn't heal with us constantly retraumatizing her with our Silas vendetta. We have to move on. I'm done with this, and I think that you should too.
Evan: I'm sorry that you had to make excuses for me when we were dating.
Mariana: I didn't always have to. You're a good man. You always eventually did the right thing, with or without me.
Tech Guy: So, who should we report to with questions about our projects?
Evan: Me.
Mariana: Both of Us.
Evan: I mean, we, us, both.
Mariana: We will be covering everything together as co-Ceos.
Evan: I'm curious. What happened between us? Why did we break up?
Mariana: It was complicated.
Evan: Well, what was complicated about it? Bring me up to speed.
Mariana: Ok. Well, for one, we started dating in secret when you were still my boss, and it was hard because the culture here wasn't great for women; it was a big Boys Club, and you didn't see that until I had exposed the gender pay gap.
Evan: There was a gender pay gap?
Mariana: Yeah, there was. And then my app was overrun by white supremacists, and you didn't shut it down right away because it was bad for business, so my friends and I quit. I kept seeing you without them knowing. Eventually, I was forced to tell them when they decided to sue you. It was hard dating someone I kept having to make excuses for, so...
Evan: So you broke up with me.
Mariana: Yeah.
Mariana: Co-CEO or nothing. I know how valuable I am, and I won't sell myself short, so I guess it comes down to how much you need me.
Evan: Co-CEO it is, then.
Raj: They don't want you out of the company.
Mariana: Well, then, what's going on?
Raj: I'm going to be in a lot of trouble telling you this. They didn't want you to know after all you've been through, but they never recovered subscribers after Zelda posted the lies about the company. Bulk Beauty is going under.
I felt it. I felt the bullet. It went right past my ear. I felt the heat, the vibration; if it had been an inch closer, I would've been shot in the head. I would've died.
Mariana: I left Dennis' party the other night because I was having a panic attack. I almost didn't make it home. When I opened the door, Silas was here.
Malika: Silas was here?
Mariana: I don't know if he was really here or I was having hallucinations. I told him to get out, and a couple of seconds later, Joaquin was at the door, and he said he didn't see anyone.
