Hal Quote #286

Quote from Hal in Poker

Hal: All right, we're gonna end this right here. Winner take all.
Abe: Fine.
Hal: Turn 'em up.
Abe: Three fives!
Hal: Three fives with a jack. [all cheer]
Abe: That makes six fives. What the hell kind of deck has six fives?!
Hal: I don't know. I got them from the boys' room.
Abe: You call yourself a poker player? You don't even have a decent deck!
Hal: Well, I'm sorry I don't have solid gold playing cards like you're accustomed to at your house!
Abe: This poor-guy act is getting a little tiring.
Hal: Your superior act is getting a little old, too.
Abe: Well, if I'm such a big jerk, why'd you come over?!
Hal: Pardon me for wanting to play poker with my best friend! I mean, I- I was really excited to come over and play poker and... meet your other friends.
Abe: Truth be told, I was excited for you to come over, too. I bought a new shirt.
Hal: That Hawaiian one? [Abe nods] I like that one.
Abe: Why are we fighting like this?
Hal: Because we're idiots! [both chuckle] Well, boys, what do you say we all go out, get some ice cream?
Abe: Sounds good to me.
