NinaYou know, this is the only time of year I like White music.
NinaI knew you had a thing for her.
Yes, but I understand I'm not allowed to show it to her without her permission.
What's going on?
NinaOh, she's having a big affair.
What? You tramp!
Dick, it's a catered affair.
You're cheating on me and your diet?
Can we take more than one?
NinaTake as much as you want! Nobody's going to be at this thing.
Don't be so insensitive.
Nina[to Dick] Yeah, shame on you!
Nina, who is this 'Tom' that Mary keeps talking about?
NinaI don't know, and it's none of my business.
It's none of my business and I'm obsessed with it!
NinaThat's typical. Why is it that men think that when you plant the flag, you own the mountain.
I spent two years climbing that mountain, and I'm not about to let some guy yodel on it!
Nina, here are the keys to my Rambler. Take it somewhere and have my tires rotated.
NinaThat's not in my job description.
What is in your job description?
NinaTyping.
Okay, well, type it into your job description and have it done by lunch.
NinaWhere's Dr. Albright?
Well, we're not sure, but we think she's having sex with Dick in an unknown location.
NinaOh my God, what is she thinking?
What's she thinking? What is he thinking?
NinaOkay, can we just agree they're both freaks?
Yeah!
[Harry left twenty dollars under Nina's pillow as payment from the Tooth Fairy for the four wisdom teeth she lost. Just as they're about to have sex, Nina finds the money.]
NinaWhat's this?
Oh, you weren't supposed to find that 'till tomorrow morning.
NinaYou left me twenty bucks?
Well, yeah, that's the going rate, isn't it?
NinaGoing rate?!
Yeah, five bucks a pop; that seems pretty reasonable to me.
I have an aunt Florence.
What?
Oh, that was aunt Florence in Indiana.
NinaSince when do you have an aunt Florence in Indiana?
Since when do you have an aunt Florence in Indiana?
NinaI don't.
So where's the big coincidence? You know, Nina. Sometimes you makes no sense.
NinaYou think you're the smartest man on the planet, don't you?
For the thousandth time, YES!
And so they served us these balls made entirely of meat. Have you seen these?
NinaEr, yeah.
They're shaped like say a tennis ball. Have you seen these?
NinaOf course I have!
But you don't play with them, you eat them! You've seen these?
NinaMany times!
[Nina storms off]
Well it sounds like you haven't!
[holds up a football] This is a football, [Holds up baseball] This is a baseball, [Holds up a tennis ball] This is a tennis ball, [Holds up what looks to be a meatball] Now, do you know what this is?
NinaIt's a meatball.
No, Nina you're wrong. It's a ping-pong ball covered in meat. [Reaches into his pocket and pulls out a meatball] This is a meatball.
NinaYou are the meatball. YOU ARE THE MEAT BALL!
[Nina storms off]
She doesn't know what a meatball is. Sad.
Why do these people get to have their life stories in the paper? What makes them so special?
NinaThose are the obituaries.
Well, I want one about me!
NinaHopefully soon.
[Dick has entered the office wearing a tight-fitting construction worker's outfit and a tool belt]
Whaddaya think, Nina? Ya like beefcake?
NinaNot from your funky bakery. [winks]
