Emily Quartermaine: I've been searching my heart trying to find some sympathy for you, a little compassion. And I imagine that you weren't always like this. It must have been Connor's loss that took your sanity. I try to tell my myself that you aren't responsible for you actions and find excuses for poor, pathetic Mary. And then I realize that that's the exact mistake I have made all along - giving you the benefit of the doubt, looking for the deeper motive. My pity for you gave you the time you needed to keep Nikolas isolated and dependent on you, time for you try and have his baby, time enough for you to feel entitled to him. You are no one to feel sorry for, Mary Bishop. You are a loathsome, cunning, dangerous woman, and I hate you with every fiber of my being. More than anything, I wish that bullet had found its mark. You don't deserve to live.

Dr. Monica Quartermaine: I know that. But I can wonder, can't I. wonder if I had given him room, if I had respected what he wanted to do, would we be more than just uncomfortable acquaintance? Would I see him more than three times a year? Every Christmas I wait for him to show up, my brain says it's not going to happen, but my heart doesn't get that message.
