Charlie: Yeah, well, he is a brilliant man.
Ross: You think? I mean, you went out with the guy who improved the accuracy of radiocarbon dating by a factor of 10!
Charlie: Yes, and while that is everything one looks for in a boyfriend he had a lot of issues.
Ross: Oh, like what? I'm sorry. I don't mean to pry. It's just that this must be what regular people experience when they watch "Access Hollywood."
Charlie: Okay, you want the dirt? Albie was seriously insecure. I mean, he was really intimidated by the guy I dated before him.
Ross: Who's intimidating to a guy who won the Nobel Prize?
Charlie: A guy who won two.
Ross: Two? What? Don't tell me you dated Benjamin Hobart?
Charlie: Yeah, for three years.
Ross: Oh, my God. Have you ever been in a relationship with someone who hasn't won the Nobel Prize?
Charlie: No. But there was my first boyfriend, Billy.
Ross: Oh, yeah? No Nobel Prizes for him?
Charlie: No, but he did just win a MacArthur "genius grant."
Ross: What a loser.
