Sam: Yeah, Norm is quite a guy, isn't he? You know, I don't think he had to sail to the South Pacific to make us admire and respect him.
Carla: He did for me.
Man: It was the only worthwhile thing he ever did in an otherwise wasted life.
Sam: Come on, come on. I'm serious. I mean, if Norm hadn't gone to Bora Bora, I don't think we would have thought any the less of him. Do you?
Cliff: You kidding? Of course we would.
Carla: Definitely.
Diane: Sam, what are you talking about?
Sam: Well, it's hypothetical. But just suppose that Norm had spent the last three weeks in a motel some place, and that he had sent those letters before he sailed and gave them to some fella to mail when he got to the islands, we wouldn't think any the less of him. Now would we?
Carla: That yellow belly is in your office, isn't he?
Sam: Now, don't be silly.
Carla: If he's not, he's not going to mind me doing this. [hits Sam's office door]
Norm: [opens door] Swell friends I have. That's the last you'll see of Norm Peterson.
