Key Lines from Episode 2

“She's my daughter. I could never get that wrong.”

Evelyn Hart · Evelyn tells Adrian and Chloe at the front door that Nora is her child.

“Mom, Chloe's her best friend. And she looks like she's had a rough time. Why don't we adopt her?”

Adrian · Adrian suggests adding Chloe to the family after hearing her lament having no parents.
