RayYeah, it is the first thing they'd do. It's like, counter-intelligence 101.
RayHow 'bout a disgraced former minister. Long story, kinda boring, but I am still licensed by the state to perform marriages, the irony of which is not lost on me.
And don't even get me started on Miss Gillette.
[Meanwhile, at the office]
Gillette[To Pam and Cheryl] She has never liked me. But someday I'm gonna write a book about this place. Mhm, a real smackaroonie.
Why are you even here?
RayHello... [holding up number to bid on sex with Lana]
But you're gay!
RayGirl, please, nobody's that gay.
[looking into Malory's desk, seeing it's rigged] Oh, come on! What could be so secret, she wired it up with twelve pounds of C-4? Ugh, I don't...think I even want to know. [calls Ray on his cell]
Ray[annoyed] What?
Heh, nice. Here, take a look at this. [takes a picture of the C-4 wires] All right, which of these wires—
RayBlue and yellow.
The blue...you want to look at it for more than half a second?
RayI wired the damn thing, ass!
Well, I didn't know that, ass! [cuts the wires then opens the top drawer, pulling a memory stick out] Okay...
RayOh my God.
What?
RayI lied. I didn't wire it.
What?!
RayBa-dum-bump-ding!
You think that's funny?! [punches the drawer shut; it promptly starts vibrating] Wha—
RayNot compared to that.
What is that?
RayOh, yeah.
No.
RayYeaaaah.
No!
RayNot a bumblebee, is it?
So as far as Archer is concerned, I feel like I dodged the world's most dysfunctional bullet.
Yeah, but Cyril was... oh wait, did he have some sort of character flaw?
[Brief shots of Lana walking in on Cyril having sex with Scatterbrain Jane, Framboise, and Cheryl (whom he is choking); Cyril is looking up and nervously saying "Hello" in each one]
Couple things...
[She lunges at Cheryl. They fight throughout the following]
Bring it!
RayYeah, we are code blue here.
Hey. Yeah, blue! Like for baby boys.
RayNo, I meant, like, for her face...
[To Lana] Choke me!
No, like for let's have a baby shower for Trinette and the wee baby Seamus.
RayOh my god yes! But your place is disgusting, so where could we have it?
Well, Archer's got that bangin' pad.
[letting up on Cheryl] He'll hate that. I wanna come.
Ohhhhh, I think I just did.
[Pam has stolen Rona's journal]
RayGive me that! Little miss invasion of the privacy snatchers!
Oh, come on! Haven't you ever snooped on somebody you thought was dreamy?
Ray GilletteNo! Well, except Randy Muckler who, turns out, was just leading me on to get out of the draft. So, I made a phone call to the draft board and now who's laughing, Mr. Hooks for Hands? A booby trap blew his arms off.
So then it's settled. We're a go on Operation... what should we called it?
Dick Sledge.
RayYou wanna...
No, but it's like sour milk. You just gotta take a whiff. What's the story, Neckbones?
Sophomore year at my stupid college, I had a huge crush on the quarterback, this super-hot guy named Dick Sledge...
Sploosh!
RayJinx.
...but it was like I was invisible. He wouldn't even sign my cast when I broke my own arm. But I thought if I knew what he liked, then I'd have an in, so one Saturday when he had a game, I broke into his dorm room to see what music he was into, or turtles, or roll around in his clothes or whatever, but...
You were so busy sniffing his jock, you didn't hear him come in...
Because he totally snuck up on me. And I guess I blacked out because I don't remember stabbing him at all.
Why'd you have a knife?!
I didn't! It was a stupid pair of scissors, and it was his fault for grabbing me with his throwing hand! That's how his tendon got severed!
Holy shitsnacks.
Yeah, they said he could've gone pro.
Ray[loading up in the armory] No, shut up, we go in, drop the journal, and get out--no snooping.
[wearing infrared goggles] Aw, come on! I just wanna see if me and her have stuff in common, like...
Tons of cock porn lying around?
I don't have cock porn just layin' around! But sometimes, you know, you forget it's in the VCR.
RayHow do you forget?
You rub one out, flip back to regular TV, Superstars is on, and all of a sudden, here's Joe Frazier's dumb ass drowning, you forget it's in there! Until Mom and Dad come to visit to tell you she's got Lou Gehrig's disease.
RayWhy would you think it's okay to share that?
[with Lana's sniper scope] Oh my God, I can see my penthouse!
Well unless there's a sniper in it...
Well somebody's in it. Who the fuck's in my fucking penthouse?!
[In the penthouse are Ray and Pam with their hands up, and Cheryl, whose hands are behind her back]
RayWe are! We're complying!
You! Get your fricking hands up!
You're not my supervisor!
Shut up, we're gonna go to prison.
No we're not. Say the right stuff, and they just send you to a mental hospital for ten months.
RayI just this second realized why you do macrame instead of knitting.
Yeah, no sharp objects on the ward. They were super strict about that.
[Archer is standing over what appears to be a partly-dismantled nuclear warhead. It's emitting a green glow]
Wait, seriously don't open it?
Ray[via Com link] Yes!
Oh. I thought you were being sarcastic.
It's a pink ribbon, I have breast cancer.
[Laughing]' Seriously, breast cancer?
Yes.
Sure it's not lady vagina cancer?
[Laughing weakly] Excuse me.
[He leaps on Brett and starts punching him.]
[Between punches] I'm trying... to stay positive... both mentally... and spiritually... Brett!
Well he certainly doesn't have cancer in his fists.
RayNah, he's beatin' his ass.
I spent last night in the tombs, getting worked over by the cops!
RayFun! ... Oh, you mean literally.
[Archer is talking to the kidnappers]
How long do I need to keep them on?
RayTwo minutes.
What?!
What happened to thirty seconds?!
RayUh, your mother's budget priorities?!
Archer and Ray had to leave through the garage.
Well, they're not dumb enough to leave the door wide open... are they?
[Cut to garage]
Yes!
RayWhy?!
Because you're just wearing it to piss me off!
RayIs it working?
Yes, so take it off! We look totally gay!
RayI am gay.
Well, I'm not!
RayThen why are you wearing that turtleneck?
