Quote from Finally! (Part 2)

Robin: At any rate, I wanted to thank you. And as a man of the world, I'm sure you've been in similar circumstances and know how embarrassing it can be. It was nice to find an ally in a sticky situation like that.
Sam: Ally, nothing. I just didn't want to see Rebecca hurt.
Robin: Nor do l, so I hope you'll keep up your continued silence. I mean, if the event should ever repeat itself.
Sam: "Emergency board meeting." You've got another date tonight, don't you?
Robin: Sadly, um... Yes.
Sam: I don't think I want to help you, pal.
Robin: Sam, you surprise me. You and I have the same weakness, beautiful women. I thought men like us share a common bond.
Sam: No, no. We don't share anything together. You know, Rebecca's my friend. You got a lot of nerve to think I'm going to help you cheat on her.
Robin: So you're taking an ethical stand. Well, let me counter with this. One phone call from me and you can have your bar back.
Sam: Why do you think that you can always buy anything... The whole bar? No down payment?
Robin: Cheers will be yours, Sam.
Sam: Okay, I don't feel very good about this, though.
Robin: Yes, well, you can print that on your cocktail napkins. Well, I'm off for a... Strenuous board meeting.

Quote from Indoor Fun with Sammy and Robby

Robin: Well, perhaps I could make the... Perhaps I could make the prospect a little more enticing if we threw in a wager? Shall we say, um, here... Uh, one U.S. dollar?
Men: Whoa!
Sam: One lousy buck?
Robin: Well, you see, Sam, a real sportsman wouldn't consider it a lousy buck, but a trophy. Something to be held over the head of the vanquished. A symbol of victory.
Sam: All right. Lie for break. Although I can't understand why anyone would get that excited about winning a dollar.

Quote from Indoor Fun with Sammy and Robby

Sam: Yeah, all right. OK. I'll... I'll play you a little game of chess. But let's not go for this weenie dollar bet here. I'll tell you what. Double or nothing.
Robin: Well, what do you say... What do you say we make it something worth our while? Both of us. Um, a week's pay. My salary against your salary.
Sam: Well, that's not exactly fair now. You don't make tips. [laughs]
Robin: Well, what do you say, Sam?
Sam: All right. Sure. Fine.
Robin: All right, I'm going back to my penthouse, and I'll get my chess set... And I'll see you in an hour, Sam.
Sam: I'll be here.

Robin: I won't have any money when I come out.
Rebecca: That doesn't matter. I'll help you rebuild your fortune.
Carla: Yeah, just look at what she's done with this bar.
Robin: Oh, shut up.
Carla: Boy, just because you lose a few billion bucks is no reason to cop a 'tude.

Quote from Where Nobody Knows Your Name

Robin: So, Sam, what have you got on your mind?

Robin: Can you be, uh, more specific?
Sam: The one you were running around with behind Rebecca's back.
Robin: Can you be more specific?
Sam: Jeanne Marie.
Robin: Oh! Oh, dear Jeanne Marie. Yes, I do hope her little game with the press isn't troubling Rebecca.
Sam: Yeah, well... Yeah, it is actually. You know this girl is running around getting exploited all over the place, but we all know that it's Rebecca that deserves to be exploited. Hey, these things are coming pretty fast. Can we slow them down?
Robin: Oh no, if they went any slower they wouldn't remain airborne. Yeah, yeah, Sam, look, if Rebecca is really getting troubled by this, why didn't she make mention of it to me?
Sam: Well, I don't know, actually. She, uh, tried to explain that to me, but l, uh...
Robin: Yes, enough said. Poor Rebecca. Her insecurities have finally got the better of her. Well, perhaps I should, uh, make an end of Jeanne Marie's little charade and go to the press and tell them the truth. Do you think that would help her?
Sam: Sure, yeah.
