Stan

Roger? Where did you learn to skate?

On my planet. You really haven't read my MySpace page, have you? You say you have, but you really haven't.

This is the first time in twenty winters we've done anything together, and now you're dumping me to skate with Roger?! Why, Stan, why?

Stan

Well, honey, I-

I'll tell you why. Because winning some stupid contest means more to you than your own wife!

Stan

Yes. Thanks you. That would've sounded awful coming out from my mouth.

I want a popcorn maker for my attic.

Stan

Don't be stupid, Roger. The attic is above sea level, and popcorn doesn't pop above sea level. I know, I've spent time in Denver.

[Steve is confronting Roger after the stock that Roger invests in plummets to zero.]

What the hell was that?! You said "SJP" was a sure thing!

I don't understand, SJP is in the new Spielberg movie; it's gonna be huge!

What are you talking about?! SJP is a Canadian chiropractic supplies company!

You mean it's... not Sarah Jessica Parker?

What?! No!

Isn't this the Hollywood Stock Exchange? You know, where you buy and sell celebrity stocks based on the ups and down of their careers?

No!

Oh... Then what is all this?

This is the New York Stock Exchange!

Like in the movie Wall Street? I thought that was Hollywood make-believe, like children of every color being at the same McDonald's.

But back home, you said you were about to make a fortune in silver!

Ron Silver!

[Steve and Roger are standing in the rain in New York]

We're gonna make through this. We still have twenty bucks. In this town, with our brains, we'll turn it into a millions in no time. [turns to the kiosk behind him] I'll have the new issue of Cherry, and keep the change, my good man.

Roger!

Steve, it's a special big butts collector's issue; someday it'll be worth a fortune. Now we play the waiting game.

Stan

Honey, it's been three weeks; maybe we should... start..planning Steve's funeral. [Francine get a reaction and throws plate onto floor in response]

I WANTED TO GO GET HIM! I WANTED TO BRING HIM INSIDE! BUT YOU WOULDN'T LET ME! OUR BABY'S DEAD BECAUSE OF YOU!!!

Stan

[close to tears] Don't you think I know that?!

Stan

Ah, the lighting of the town Christmas tree- can you think of anything more American?

An American flag?

Stan

Or. Or an American flag with Christmas trees for stars! Ooh, that would make a good cake. [pulls out personal tape recorder] Note to self: I like cake.

[Stan has gone to God to get a second chance]

I'll just cut to the chase, I'm not going to help you.

Stan Smith

What? Then just help my family. You can't let them die.

Look, everything happens for a reason.

Stan Smith

What reason could there be?

Stan, I'm gonna level with you. If your family is allowed to live, Stanford's tennis team will go 0 and 8 in conference play.

Stan Smith

What?

[laughs] I'm just messing with you, the point is mysterious ways, have a little faith, I'm in the details. Now c'mon, you can be triceratops. I know he's your favorite.

[Stan draws a "Heaven Gun", which can kill anything]

Stan Smith

We're out of time. Now, send me back so I can save my family!

Not gonna happen.

Stan Smith

You have to!

Okay, so you know better than me, is that it? You're all-knowing?

Stan Smith

No. Yes. I don't know.

Exactly! You don't know, so stop trying to control everything.

Stan Smith

I don't do that!

Stan, you're holding a gun to God's head. I can't think of a metaphor that's better than this.

Stan, I did some research on that kiosk at the mall. If you gave me $5,000 of your bonus, I could start a business selling my muffins. I think there's a real market for...

Stan

Ooh, ooh, uh, I... I'm sorry... sorry to interrupt, but, uh, real quick, this is the worst idea I've ever heard. Never gonna happen, but please, keep going.

Oh, just forget it!

Stan

Great call, Francine.

Stan

I have to kill Klaus before he steals Francine, there's no time to loose!

VValet

That'll be three dollars.

Stan

What? That's a total rip, I'll park it myself.

···

Stan

Grrr!

···

Stan

All I have is a five.

VValet

Sorry, I don't have change.

Stan

Oh forget it, I'll park it myself!

···

Stan

Uh-uh-uh-eraaaaaaggh!!

Stan

I can't believe you're still upset. It's been a week.

You called me a pig.

Stan

I didn't say you were a pig. I said that dress made you look like a pig. And those shoes didn't help. All your fat, sweaty toes shoved in there like 20 Hondurans stuffed in a giant... shoe.

Now the world will never know the truth.

Stan

If only there was a place where you could make any outrageous claim you want with absolutely no proof, and millions of people would accept it as fact.

That's it!
