  Eggs : Same for me.

  [rubbing his jaw] 

• Maryann Forrester : Look at you. A few bumps and bruises? A small price to pay for bliss.

• Tara Thornton : I've never been this out of control before.

  Maryann Forrester : We need to be out of control. We crave it.

• Tara Thornton : [seeing Lafayette and Lettie Mae]  Ah well. Looky here. Aliens.

  Maryann Forrester : Ooh. Who's that?

  Tara Thornton , Eggs : Lafayette.

  Maryann Forrester : Ooh. Lafayette, Ms. Thornton. Welcome, join us!

  Lafayette Reynolds : No. We're good.

  Lettie Mae Thornton : I'm takin' my daughter away from you.

  Tara Thornton : Is that right?

  Lafayette Reynolds : Yeah, that's right.

  Lettie Mae Thornton : [to Tara]  Child, listen to me this one time for once in your life.

  Maryann Forrester : [as she, Tara and Eggs laugh]  Don't be ridiculous. Take a load off. We're in the middle of a game.

• Maryann Forrester : [to Merlotte's customers]  The god who comes demands his sacrifice! Where is Sam Merlotte?

  Maryann Forrester : Well, find him and bring him to me!

• Maryann Forrester : I don't wanna be blacking out.

  Tara Thornton : I have a little theory about blacking out. Maybe you rose to a higher state of consciousness.

  Maryann Forrester : We're all bashed up. There's nothing higher about that except for we must have been high. My mama blacked out for months at a time, I'm a blackout expert.

  Tara Thornton : Are you?

  Maryann Forrester : Certified.

• Maryann Forrester : What about the saints of India? What about the mystics of every religion?

  Eggs : What about them?

  Maryann Forrester : They would black out. Run and dance through the streets, levitate, act like monkeys, run around naked. Everybody thought they were crazy.

  Tara Thornton : They *were* crazy.
