Bethany[To Paul] What? You've never seen a smoking dwarf before?
BethanyI can get by that you're old. I can get by that you're old and gross. I can't get by that you had a history with my mother.
One meeting.
BethanyIn these offices. I'll call it even.
Not quite. One condition. Take off your clothes.
BethanyWhat!
Oh come on. That was the initial plan. We hit it off, eventually we get together, naked. Take off your clothes. Let me see that little package.
BethanyYou are the most disgusting, vulgar human being I have ever met.
You're right... Just the top then?
A meeting? Would I have to talk?
BethanyYou're much more impressive when you don't.
You two spoke over the Internet for two weeks, divulging personal intimate details. You leave out the fact that you're under three feet tall. Do you think that's honest?
BethanyLook at him. Did I get Mel Gibson?
[Denny makes a pose]
BethanyMaybe I did.
Okay, before we start, I want it on the record that I am very uncomfortable deposing a dwarf.
BethanyWhat's that supposed to mean?
It means I'm uncomfortable. I don't need any victims rights groups picketing outside my condo. Not to mention the fact you obviously have deep psychological issues to accept any date with a seventy-two year old man, let alone...
[stares at Denny]
Him.
You want a war? You get a war.
BethanyYou fat old man.
Bring it on, small fry!
BethanyHe baited me deliberately.
He did this because the book on you is your less effective when you lose your cool.
BethanyOh, shut up.
This is exactly the state of mind that he wants you in.
BethanyIt was an offer made in bad faith. I should bring a motion for sanctions.
That wouldn't make any difference.
BethanyShut up.
Shut up yourself.
[Bethany is nervous and breathing hard]
[to Denny] She okay? She's panting like a dog.
Bethany[angrily] I heard that!
[Bethany is pinching Denny's ear]
It's sexual this ear pinch.
BethanyYes. Pinching the ear gives you blood flow. When's the last time you got that without taking a pill?
Well. Shall we pick up where we left off, my little friend?
BethanyForget it.
Why?
BethanyBecause one of the rules I try to follow in my social life is, 'don't date guys who slept with my mother.'
BethanyI need to speak with you... [notices Alan] ...privately.
Anything you want to say to me can be said in front of him.
We're married.
[In court]
Hold on just one second; are you a midget?
BethanyAre you an imbecile?
Uh...objection!
Sustained.
BethanySo, you going to remind me again how I'm supposed to cross the wife?
Oh, shut up.
You people have an overreacting problem, you do know that?
[offended] "We people?"
Yeah, same thing in Lebanon. They grab a few soldiers, you respond with overkill. And that's a problem.
BethanyAre you saying Israel doesn't have the right to defend itself?
Well, of course, they do! But you can't blow up a country just because you get mad! Only the United States enjoys that privilege. We're a superpower; God is on our side.
