Debra: Hi.
Ray: Hey, there, cummerbund. What are you doing? Oh, what's for dinner?
Debra: Lemon chicken.
Ray: Again?
Debra: What did you make?
Ray: Nothing.
Debra: Okay, you can have that and we'll have the lemon chicken.

Debra: Ally made a new friend. Daniel.
Ray: Daniel? A boy?
Ally: He's coming over on Sunday.
Ray: Coming over, yeah? Don't you think you should meet for coffee and see how that goes? Well, Ally, I'm looking forward to meeting your gentleman caller. And I hope Daniel realizes that he's getting involved with a very special young lady. [Ally looks to her mother]
Debra: Don't worry, honey. Daddy won't be here when he comes over.
Ally: Good.
Ray: You're gonna want me there when it's time to pay for the wedding, though, aren't you?

[flashback:]
Robert: Totally naked?
Ray: Yup.
Robert: Totally naked? A beautiful woman totally naked facing you?
Ray: Yes.
Robert: Another gift for Raymond. I burst into places all the time. I raid massage parlors. You know who I get to see naked? Fat guys. Fat hairy bald guys. You get to go out with a naked girl.

[flashback:]
Ray: There's no way I can ever go out with her.
Robert: Yes, you can.
Ray: No. The whole time she'll know that all I'm thinking about is her breasts.
Robert: Well, don't think about them.
Ray: Don't think about them, yeah. Don't think about zebras. Go!
Robert: Wow!
Ray: Yeah, see? What are you thinking about?
Robert: A zebra with breasts.
Ray: That's it, that's why there's no way I can go out with her.

[flashback:]
Marie: Robby, your father's coming home soon.
Robert: Yeah?
Marie: You're sitting in his chair. You know how upset he gets if he sees your imprint in his chair. [doorbell rings]
Robert: He can kiss my imprint.
Marie: It's just that he's working so hard, that's all. I can't wait till your father retires. Oh, he's gonna be so much more pleasant then.

[flashback:]
Debra: So your family seem nice.
Ray: Yeah, yeah, they seem nice.

Ray: So, hey, Ally asked that boy to come over? That's a little forward, don't you think?
Debra: Oh, please. If women waited for men to ask, the entire species would die out.
Ray: What are you talking about? We wouldn't have gotten together if it wasn't for me.
Debra: You?! We got together in spite of you.
Ray: No, get outta here. It was all me, okay? I came, I saw, I conquered, baby.
Debra: You know, as much as I would like to blame you, us getting together is my fault.

[flashback:]
Ray: She's pretty, man.
Gianni: Yeah, I can see why you'd want to smother her with the futon.
Ray: She's different. She's like different kind of pretty. You know, natural, walk-on-the-beach, have-a-wine-cooler kind of pretty.
Gianni: Let's get the frame started then you can write her a poem.

[flashback:]
Ray: She laughed at my joke. Did you see that? She laughed. You think she's got a boyfriend?
Gianni: I don't know. Check out the pictures.
Ray: I don't see any guys. There's no guys. Hey, maybe she likes women.
Gianni: Nah, if she was like that, she'd be putting this thing together herself. Ask her out, big nose.
Ray: No, what? Her? Go out with me? No, no, no. Yeah?
Gianni: Stranger things have happened. I can't think of any.

[flashback:]
Ray: Nah, I live with my parents.
Gianni: Fine, then I'll ask her out.
Ray: No, no, you can't.
Gianni: Why not?
Ray: 'Cause, you're the futon guy.
Gianni: You're the assistant futon guy.
