Olivia Moreno : [Mary learns Olivia is dating Cesar Calderon] I haven't said anything about anything to do with my dad to anyone. And Cesar hasn't asked.
Mary Shannon : [skeptically] Really?
Olivia Moreno : I swear to God, Mary, Cesar's legit. He's a producer.
Mary Shannon : Oh, a producer!
Olivia Moreno : Yeah.
Mary Shannon : Why didn't you say so? TV? Movies?
Cesar Calderon : Music.
Mary Shannon : Oh.
Olivia Moreno : Look, Cesar's only been in the business two years, and he already has a gold record.

Mary Shannon : I never got over the hurt of my father leaving me, and I don't ever want to go through that again. But I am not afraid of commitment. It's just that with the possible exception of Marshall, I seem to be the only person on the planet who... who believes you honor your commitments, no matter what, and that you don't break a promise because keeping it has become inconvenient. And you don't commit yourself to something as important as marriage because you got called up to the majors.
Raphael Ramirez : Well, you won't have to worry about that anymore.
Mary Shannon : Why? What are you talking about?
Raphael Ramirez : I retired.
Mary Shannon : What?
Raphael Ramirez : Yesterday.
Mary Shannon : What, you just woke up and decided to quit?
Raphael Ramirez : No. No, no. Look, it's not like that. I... I decided last year, after I hurt my knee, to give it six months and see how I come back. Then I hurt my hand. So I pushed it another three months. This decision has been almost a year in the making. Now it's time for me to get on with the next part of my life. And for the record, I bought the ring six months before I asked you to marry me. You are the most difficult woman in the world, but I have known for a long time that I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
