S1 E8A Cook

(George brings J. D. with her into Der Waffle Haus where she meets Rube, Mason and Daisy.)

What a gorgeous dog.

Isn't she?

Is it a golden?

Yes! She is.

What's its name?

J. D.

[Rube looks underneath J. D.]

J. D.'s a male.

Yes, she is.

Why you callin' him a she is he's a he?

Because dogs are referred to in the feminine.

In the way some guy would talk about a car?

Exactly.

As in, she's got eight under the hood, she gets twenty to the gallon?

... Sure.

Actually, you refer to dogs by their sex. As in, here boy, down girl.

(Daisy and George are talking about J. D. and whether they should let him into their apartment.)

Well, I know this isn't something you care about, but I own some very beautiful clothes.

What's your point?

He looks like a 'shedder'.

Ha! That's absolutely something I can live with.

[typing on her computer] Millie...did you put detergent in the dishwasher?

Uh, no...I thought you did.

Oh, silly us. We'll just have to locate those dishes and wash 'em again.

Your computer told you that?

No, silly, "stinky5000" did.

[on how her website operates] I've got a camera there [she waves at the camera], a camera there, a camera there, and a camera there. Not in the bathroom though... [in a conspiratorial tone] people watching me in the potty would just be plain wrong.

[voiceover] ...As opposed to watching you everywhere else?

[On the name of her website] I was going to call it "Her Big" Website, but I was afraid I'd attract people with [indicates with her fingers] a fetish for big things.

So, people actually pay to watch you?

I do get two cents every time someone clicks on but that would go straight to my favorite charity - The American Amputees Association.

[voiceover] Oh, Christ! My boss has a wooden leg.

S1 E9Sunday Mornings

My mother was more excited about me going to college than I was. It was like "Hey, here's a socially acceptable way to evict my daughter from our house."

I'll show you both, we'll be like Romeo and Juliet. We will.

You do know how that story ended, don't you?

If Romeo had just masturbated a couple of times a week he would have saved both those nice families a heap of trouble.

You need to fix it.

He put his hands on me.

Last time I checked, being pissed off wasn't enough of a reason to remove a person's soul from their body. Don't do that again.

I didn't think he'd turn into a nutball.

Well, how would you have responded, Roxy? God appeared to the man.

I wouldn't be making up words and shit.

He's creating a mythology to take back to his people. Joseph Smith had the same thing happen to him. Now the Mormons have a monopoly on the hotel industry.

Well what do you want me to do?

It's about restoring the status quo, the guy wasn't supposed to get enlightened, he was supposed to get a parking ticket. You got to turn him back into a prick. If you ever take someone's soul again, without first having a post-it, I'm gonna break this pipe off in your ass.

[voiceover] As you get older, the chance of making a really good new friend is probably about the same as being hit by a truck. And if you're hit by a truck (which is to say, dead) the chances of making a good friend are even slimmer.

[voiceover] Human beings are simple, predictable clichés. Broken hearts, betrayal, it's all been done a billion times before. The problem is, every time still hurts like the first. And if you're lucky enough to recover, you can be sure that just as you finish filling in all the cracks in your life, the next one is starting to open.

S1 E10Business Unfinished

[Dolores is setting George up for a conference roomful of collating.]

Collating is so Zen, so meditative. I suppose it's the rhythmic nature of repetition that frees the mind to think deep thoughts. It's like sweeping! Whoosh! Do you know where I'm coming from?

[voiceover] Jupiter?

I do.

You'll be amazed to discover how much your busy-bee hands have accomplished!

Bees don't have hands.

No, they don't, do they? [grinning] But you know who does? You do. And you know what they say about idle hands?

[voiceover] They'll strangle the person who asked them to collate?

[Roxy gives everyone a balloon]

What's the occasion?

I'm guessing she had sex with a carnie.

Why do I need to have an occasion to spread the love?

Because you are an ornery bitch and you eat puppy dogs for breakfast.

Goddamn it Georgia! Show some ambition! That's what separates us from the animals, you know. It's not the opposable thumb.
