"Baby, I love you. Be my wife. Finally."

"Can you keep you safe? Can you stand there and tell me this won't end with you or Sly or somebody else taking a bullet? Or that you won't end up back in handcuffs? Do you know that I still dream about that too? I still have nightmares about how they led you away from me with your hands bound behind you in cuffs in that fucking dive bar outside of Chicago. I think about it all the time?"

"Ava's kept her distance, Dex.Tried to carve out a life for herself.I've tried to be as good a friend to her as I know how to be.But she's still in love with you.Of that I have no doubt. Bt she's not the same girl you left and I think you're already figured that out.She learned how to live without you and it's going to take her some time to feel like she can trust the fact that you're back.And she may not get there."

"Stop that too. Don't promise me. Don't we both know better by now?"
