Quote from Cliff
Cliff: Oh, I gotta get over there, Normie. She's- She's up to her armpits in batter.
Norm: You don't mind if I stay, Cliff. I've already seen that.
Cliff: Yeah.
Quote from Sam
Sam: Hi, Evan.
Evan Drake: Oh, Sam.
Sam: What are you doing here, huh?
Evan Drake: Well, I was on my way to the airport, and I thought I'd come by here and clear this matter up before I left.
Sam: Oh, yeah, listen, I gotta tell you, that whole thing at the party was my fault. I mean, we had had a little tiff, and she was trying to make me jealous.
Evan Drake: Yeah, I figured it was something like that. Yeah. Well, I better go back there and apologize to her.
Sam: Wait, wa- You're going to apologize?
Evan Drake: Well, yeah, I overreacted. I was a little rough on her.
Sam: Oh. Yeah. Uh, actually, uh, give me a second here, will you? Um... She probably needs to freshen up.
She's pretty upset by this whole thing. Her mascara's probably down in her shoes by now.
Quote from Sam
Sam: Listen, I did my best. I mean, I gave him the jealousy story, but he just didn't buy it. I tell you, man, he is really steamed.
Rebecca: Damn.
Sam: You know, he said that if, uh, if you were really in love with me, that he might understand. You know, that it would explain everything, but he just didn't buy that.
Rebecca: Oh, God, what am I going to do?
Sam: I don't know. I don't know. Unless...
Rebecca: Unless what? What?
Sam: Ah... No, no, yeah, yeah, that wouldn't work.
Rebecca: No, no, what? Tell me, please.
Sam: Well, all right, well, maybe, you know, if well, if he were to walk in here and find you kissing me more passionately than you kissed him...
Rebecca: Forget it, forget it, forget it.
Quote from Rebecca
Rebecca: You know, you never give up. You are always on the make. Let me tell you something, buster.
Sam: All right.
Rebecca: I still have a little self-respect. I have a little pride. [knocking]
Sam: Have it your way.
Evan Drake: Hello.
[Rebecca and Sam passionately kiss]
Evan Drake: [clearing throat]
Sam: Oh. Ha. Sorry, Evan, there. I didn't, uh, didn't hear you come in there. You know how it is with young lovers, here. We just can't keep our hands off each other.
Evan Drake: Yeah. You're a lucky man, Sam.
Sam: Oh, yeah, you're telling me. Well, this little honey of mine gives me a lot of good loving, don't you?
Rebecca: Sure do, punkin.
Quote from Sam
Evan Drake: Well, I just came by to apologize for how I reacted earlier.
Rebecca: Apologize? To me?
Evan Drake: Well, yeah, I told Sam outside.
Rebecca: You told Sam?
Sam: Gotcha.
Evan Drake: So why don't we just not say anything more about it?
Sam: I think that's a great idea. Uh, let me walk you to the car here.
Evan Drake: Yeah.
Rebecca: Malone.
Sam: No, no. I think we should say nothing more about this.
Quote from Rebecca
Sam: Hey, listen. Come on. I'm just having a little fun with you. You know, I know why you're upset. You found out something in that room you hadn't counted on. Your true feelings were revealed.
Rebecca: What?
Sam: No woman can kiss like that and not mean it.
Rebecca: Are you nuts?
Sam: No, no, no. No, it can't be done. You can't fake passion like that.
Rebecca: Oh, is that right?
Sam: Hey, Fras.
[As Frasier walks into the bar, Rebecca starts kissing Frasier. As their kiss continues, she lays him down on a table. Afterwards, Rebecca stands up, glares at Sam, and then walks off to her office.]
Sam: Nice try. Frasier? Frasier?
Frasier: [hiccups]
Quote from Sam
Evan Drake: You know, some of the guys down at corporate have asked her out, but she always shot them down. You tried your luck with her yet?
Sam: Oh, no. I have a rule about not dating people I work with.
Evan Drake: Struck out, huh?
Sam: Every time.
Evan Drake: Yeah, you know, some of the guys there in the office think she's a...
Sam: What?
Evan Drake: ...a lady's lady.
Sam: Rebec-? Oh, no. Oh, I can't believe it.
Rebecca: I'm so sorry, Mr. Drake. I would have been here sooner, but I was working on my car.
Quote from Sam
Sam: Uh, boy, I'd love to, man, but I don't have a dime to my name. And my boat sank and everything...
Norm: Yeah, I know, the bottom of the Caribbean.
Cliff: What is that, the 17th or 18th time we heard that speech?
