Quotes from the episode

When I went to college I was being modeled into this modern dancer, I didn’t necessarily know what that meant, but I still wanted to be the best.
-MiRi Park

I think of them as people who do dance, as opposed to merely dancers. They are human beings that have histories of arrival and each person is unique, so there is never going to be just one story.
-MiRi Park

There was never a doubt in either of our minds that this could be done.
-Heather Castillo

Why keep the information to myself when I can share it with others?
-MiRi Park
