The Affair
Sundays 9:00 PM on ShowtimeThe Affair Season 3 Episode 8: "308" Quotes
Honestly, it seems a little fast to me. You haven't exactly been a model of consistency since you got back.
Cole
Grieving Girl: What'd you do?
Alison: I had an affair. I wouldn't recommend it. It didn't turn out well.
Everyone assumes that life is a given, but you and I know that it's not. You and I both know that breath can end, so we know that life is a gift. You'll miss Dawn, but you'll keep her memory alive. You'll live now for both of you.
Alison
Helen: Oh that's right. You're daughter's here.
Alison: Yeah.
Helen: She turned out not to be Noah's?
Alison: No.
Helen: I'm sorry. I loved hearing that.
I think people see what they want to see in other people.
Helen
Cole: You guys gonna be OK?
Oscar: What do you mean?
Cole: Well, you just called your wife a cunt.
Oscar: Yeah, because she makes me deeeeply miserable. But do you mean are we doing to split? No, of course not. Jenny's like a, she's like a solid B+, and let's face it, I'm a C. So if she needs to call and yell at me and then hang up, well that's a small price to pay for a beautiful family, you know?
Alison, I built this whole life, I'm building a whole house just to prove to everybody that I don't love you anymore, that I don't need you, that I don't want you, that I don't miss you. But the truth is that I do. I need you, and I want you, and I miss you, and I love you, and I'm tired of pretending that I don't.
Cole
Alison: Just stop pretending.
Cole: I can't.
Alison: Why?
Cole: Because I'm not Noah Solloway. I am a good man, and I would have to be crazy to trust you again after what you did to me, and I am not going to go down that rabbit hole again and jeopardize everything that I built.
Alison: We keep coming back to each other.
Cole: I know.
Alison: Don't you think that means something?
Cole: I think that means we were unfinished.
Alison: And now...we are? You're scared. I think you're giving up because we've made a mess of everything, and it's too complicated. If you leave Luisa now, you can't play the good guy anymore. Then you're an asshole just like me. Yeah, but maybe you're a happy asshole instead of a miserable hero.
Luisa: You're still here.
Cole: This is my home, our home. If you'll still have me.
Luisa: I'll still have you.
