[The station has hired a tough arbitrator, "The Hammer," to renegotiate everyone's contract. Gil's salary has been slashed, but Bebe and Roz come in cheering.]
GilHow on Earth did you get all that?
Oh, we go way back, the Hammer and I. I know where the bodies are buried.... Usually, that's just a metaphor.
GilI must admit, I didn't notice he was all that handsome.
You didn't notice? You of all people?
GilJust what are you insinuating?
Well, you know... you're a little...
GilFor your information, I happen to be a happily married man.
You're... married?
To a woman?

[with obvious fervor] She made us want to paw the ground and rise up on our powerful haunches, fetlocks glistening. Smokey, Misty, Storm, away! [Gil downs his glass of wine in one long swig.]
