S1 E15Unfinished Business

[while taking and reading Hamilton's book summary] :

Let's have a look, then. Every one of these blurbs says he's charming: «I was swept away by a wave of charm.»

«I was immolated in a firewall of charm and charisma.» «I almost exploded from the concentration of charm on the page.»

I bet I can open it anywhere and I find this fop posing on a jeep looking smug.

[he opens the book, finds the photograph]

Haha!

JJason

Now Fran, would you say that you had jungle experience, bearing in mind it could be handy on this trip?

Does Corfu count?

JJason

You've been to Corfu?

No.

Men have a different way of noticing hair and appearance. Which is not noticing.

I tell you what, we are going to this party, because I'm trying to picture this "girl" who "likes you" and all I can see is you in a dress.

And what am I supposed to do when you're doing the underpants charleston with this insane, blind tart?!

Why are you getting so angry?

I can't help being angry when I'm furious!

She's nice.

[points his finger threateningly at Manny] DON'T YOU DARE USE THE WORD 'PARTY' AS A VERB IN THIS SHOP!!

Let's... potter along... in order to attend the party! [Bernard lowers his finger]

Fran, get the wine!

What? [sees that there was alcohol in the house the whole time] Lies! Subterfuge! Seething corruption!

What is this I'm drinking? It's disgusting. It's like a choc ice fell into a bottle of bleach. This is children's booze! What's yours?

Bludge. It's quite good actually. You don't even have to drink it. You just rub it on your hips and it eats right through to your liver.

The music was too loud, the food was cold, the drinks were few, and the people were many. It was everything I expected, and less. I'm never going outside again unless I need someplace to throw up.

[to Bernard] Would you like some beetroot liqueur? You can have it. You can have the whole bottle. Really, I mean it, you can have..nearly all of it...Go on, go ahead...WHOAA Don't go mad.
