Why do I even ask.

In the flesh, so to speak.

Come on Al, tell me he's not real...

Do you have any Sweet 'n Low? Or Equal?

Sweet 'n low? Equal?

Sam

[Sam looks at Kelly.]

Sam

But boy, did they have women with big kazooms!

KKelly

Even with the cafe I'm rationed a half a pound of sugar a week. And Mike tries to put all of it into in his cup.

Are you forgetting who slips you an extra pound of butter every now and then?

KKelly

I didn't know I was swappin' sugar for it.

Sam

Well, if a pound of butter is all it takes, I got me a dairy farm that I...

[to Sam] Stop that!!

Give me what I want, baby.

Dammit Ziggy! Tell me something I don't know!

Tina's having an affair with Gushie.

Sam

Something to help Al.

Tea? Not coffee?

Sam

I'm making some tea. Tea. T-E-A tea. Tea, tea, tea. I don't like coffee, I like tea....Does drinking tea make me any less of a man than somebody who drinks coffee? I mean, is every tea-drinker in the entire history of the world gay to you? Is that it? What about the Boston Tea Party? Was that like some kind of a gay boat festival or something?

No, no. I thought...I thought that your heart had stopped. I was just trying to get it started again, that's all.

AAngela

Oh, why don't you back over me a couple more times?

You shouldn't move.

You shouldn't drive.
