Quotes 

• Maggie Sawyer : I have one pet peeve, Danvers, and that's not being heard.

  Alex Danvers : Okay. I'm listening.

  Maggie Sawyer : [turning to leave]  No, forget it. I'm outta here.

  Alex Danvers : [stopping her]  Hey, no! You don't get to just walk out, Maggie. This is a relationship. You're the one who told me not to push my feelings down, so... now it's your turn.

  Maggie Sawyer : You want... you want to know?

  Alex Danvers : Yeah.

  Maggie Sawyer : Okay, yeah, fine. When I told you that my parents were supportive of my coming out, I lied.

  Alex Danvers : What?

  Maggie Sawyer : I had this friend when I was fourteen, Elisa Wilkey. We'd hang out in her parents' basement, watching horror flicks, and smoking cigarettes. I... I... she was the first girl that I knew I liked in a way that was different. And I-I thought that she liked me, too. And so on Valentine's Day, I put a card in her locker, declaring my feelings, and asking her to the dance. Well... she gave that card to her parents. And then they called my parents. And that's how I was outed. And then my dad kicked me out, and I had to live with an aunt for three years.

  Alex Danvers : Maggie, I'm... I'm sorry.

  Maggie Sawyer : Yeah, whatever.

  Alex Danvers : But I don't understand. I mean, why... why didn't you just tell me the truth?

  Maggie Sawyer : I didn't want to scare you. Okay? I wanted it to be better for you.

• Alex Danvers : Black coffee, a sesame seed bagel, dry, double toasted. Gross.

  Maggie Sawyer : Thanks, Danvers. You know me well.

• Maggie Sawyer : What's that?

  Alex Danvers : It's from my mom. It's... it's kind of silly. I mean, she's... she's always made such a fuss about Valentine's Day. Here I am, 28 years old, and she still sends me cards.

  Maggie Sawyer : I always wondered who bought these. Let me see this.

  [taking the card] 

  Maggie Sawyer : "Daughter, thank you for being who you are. You will always be my star." Oh, my god...

  Alex Danvers : I... Yeah, it's-it's kind of cheesy. I mean, Valentine's Day's kind of dumb, right?

  Maggie Sawyer : Well, the ridiculous notion that you need a manfuactured holiday to prove that you care? It just proves that people are patsies willing to throw away money on cheap chocolate and wilted roses. Makes me want to puke. I hate Valentine's Day.

  Alex Danvers : [covering, as her face falls]  Me, too.

  Maggie Sawyer : I knew we were right for each other, Danvers.

• Alex Danvers : Hey, I was just about to make my entrance, but I can't without the lights and music. You're not happy.

  Maggie Sawyer : I told you I hate Valentine's Day. What part of that got lost in translation?

  Alex Danvers : I'm... I'm sorry, I just... I thought maybe I could just change your mind.

• Maggie Sawyer : Wow, you're breathtaking.

  Alex Danvers : Maggie, what is all this?

  Maggie Sawyer : It's your belated Valentine's Day prom.

  [offering a corsage] 

  Maggie Sawyer : May I?

• Maggie Sawyer : I'm sorry. So sorry. I was too busy nursing my old wounds, and I forgot to look at the gorgeous woman in front of me and consider her feelings. You deserved all of this as a girl, the pomp and the fuss. And you deserve an amazing romance with the woman who is absolutely crazy about you.

  Alex Danvers : Don't you hate all this?

  Maggie Sawyer : Alex, you're the one woman that could make me like Valentine's Day.

• Maggie Sawyer : Hey, Kara. Alex around?

  Kara Danvers : I was looking for her, too. She's not here.

  Maggie Sawyer : I was hoping I could see her. I need to apologize. I acted like an idiot last night.

  Kara Danvers : Look, I know Valentine's Day might not be happy for you, but it means something to Alex to spend a romantic holiday with someone she cares about. Maybe you might want to consider making some changes for her.
