"Here's another TV convention that makes no sense. People in the middle of tawdry sex, particularly someone who's simply about surface physicality (Simone) will immediately revert to cloistered, Christian monogamy style thought. If I am to continue to have sex with this man, I MUST make him break up with his girlfriend so I can marry him! You see a lot of that in cartoons from The '80s. Villains who want to marry the ingénue in a secret and elaborate ceremony so that they can ravish her in lieu of the good guy... But when you're someone who can control minds in an instant, what's the worry? Lana walks in, 'I got you! The jig's up!'

Jiggly pendant. 'Go. And bring back pie.'

Lana: 'I will bring back pie.'

'And stop being passive aggressive.'

'I...didn't...hear...that.'

'Yes you did.'

Lana's head then explodes."

Odalia: Really, Mittens, I am tired of all this drama. Sneaking around in little disguises, convincing the twins to act out, are you trying to make me look bad?
Luz: She's trying to help people.
Odalia: Hush, brat.
Amity: [Furious] Don't you talk to my girlfriend like that!
Odalia: Girlfriend? Oh, no, no. That won't do. We'll find you a new girlfriend. Someone who's not on wanted posters everywhere.
