Carla

[about gay men] I'm not exactly crazy about them. I mean I get enough competition from women. I'm tell you if guys keep coming out of the closet there isn't going to be anybody left to date and I'm going to have to start going out with girls. [looks at Diane] Ewww.

Carla, you don't have to worry about me. I like my dates a little more masculine than you. Not much but a little.

Hey Sam, you want me to hang around until your date gets here.

No, you probably want to get on home.

Carla

Are you kiddin'? It's two a.m., my kids might be there.

Carla

I know everything about you, Malone.

Yeah, right.

Carla

Your favorite color is blue. Your favorite hobby is sailing. And your taste in women is not what it used to be.

Right across the board. You do know me.

Carla

A lot better than you know me.

Yeah?

Carla

Yeah.

Your favorite meal is Chicken McNuggets. Your favorite hobby is drawing underarm hair on all the models in Vogue magazine. And your favorite movie is Lady and the Tramp and you always cry when they come to the part about the spaghetti.

Carla

I didn't think anybody knew that.

I'll tell you something else I know about you that you didn't think I knew.

Carla

What?

You go to Mass every Sunday.

Carla

Who squealed on me?!

Carla

When I'm in charge of the bar I know what God feels like.

How's that?

Carla

It's like I'm in complete control of people's destinies. Yeah, I can make their drinks too strong so they get sick. Or I can water them down so they're payin' for nothin'. Or if I don't like their attitude I can spit in it.

Carla

I have a way with inanimate objects.

Maybe you'd like to take a crack at Norm here.

Carla

Just so we can follow the fun, what's this fight about?

We're not fighting, Carla. We're merely discussing a little difference of opinion. Vodka rocks, two. I think Sam is a heartless mindless slack-jawed cretin and he disagrees.

Is there anything I can do?

No. This problem is strictly between myself and Frasier Crane. Suffice to say, he insists on making mountains out of molehills.

Carla

He wants you to wear a padded bra?

Carla

Eddie's got an extra ticket to the RV show for tonight, Coach. How's that sound?

Terrific.

Carla

Well go ahead. I'll cover for ya.

Hot dog!

Carla

Some luck, huh Eddie?

Well, I guess I'm not going to get a good night kiss.

Carla

You might if you're nice to him.

Carla

What a night. Two hundred bucks in tips.

What are you gonna do with all that money, Carla?

Carla

I am going to spend it all on my kids.

Good girl.

Carla

How many gunny sacks and one way tickets do you think it will buy?

S3 E5 Sam Turns the Other Cheek

[about women] They're only good for one thing.

Carla

And for you, not even that.
