Quotes[]
- Brian Hackett - "Hey, Antonio, what's up?"
Antonio Scarpacci - "Me, I'm up. I'm making a new start. No more lonely Saturday nights laying in a dark room listening to the faucet drip, drip, drip, and wondering what's the point of going on."
Brian Hackett - "Yeah, what are you going to do?"
Antonio Scarpacci - "I'm volunteering at the suicide hotline."
- Joe Hackett - "Hold on, are you telling me that a woman called you at the suicide hotline, and you asked her out?"
Antonio Scarpacci - "Yeah, so?"
Brian Hackett - "Technically, isn't that manslaughter?"
- Brian Hackett - "In my entire life I never thought I'd hear myself utter these words: Antonio, you can do better."
- Helen Hackett - "Joe!?"
Joe Hackett - "Helen!? This is not what it seems like!"
Helen Hackett - "How could you?"
Joe Hackett - "Look it was just this one time. I swear! I-I didn't even enjoy it."
Helen Hackett - "How could you pay for something you could get at home for free?"
Joe Hackett - "Helen, look, I walk by it everyday, it's in my face. I'm a man, Helen, I have needs!"
Helen Hackett - "Well, I hope your little tart was worth it."
Joe Hackett - "Look...Look, if it means anything to you, I was thinking about your food the whole time I was eating."
Helen Hackett - "You can just save it! I may not have fresh eggs, and I may not have fresh cheese, and I may not have fresh meat, but I have my pride."
- Cart Lady - "I'm sorry. I just can't stay in business here. I need more volume."
Casey Davenport - "More volume? Okay! I'll do my part. I know I don't usually snack between meals, but I can change!"
Brian Hackett - "I can eat more."
Fay Cochran - "Oh, me too."
Roy Biggins - "You know where I stand."
- Elise - "Hey, we've still got 15 minutes til Leno."
Antonio Scarpacci - "15 minutes, huh? Hey, I'm up for a marathon."
