Carlton

You can't understand and respect women because you're not in touch with your feminine side.

And you know what your problem is? You're not in touch with anybody's feminine side.

S5 E6 Will's Misery
View quote →

(Will sees Carlton dancing.)

Carlton, what's wrong? Are you having a Malox moment?

Carlton

I'm getting ready for Soul Train. I believe there's dancing involved.

Two things. One: That's not dancing. And two: I'd appreciate it if you stayed away from the show.

Carlton

And why, pray tell, is that?

Again, two things, Carlton. One: Because you say stuff like "pray tell". And two: You're gonna embarrass me when I become the new co-host.

S5 E8 Sooooooooul Train
View quote →

You see, Soul Train's been looking for a co-host for months, and so far no one's worked out.

Carlton

And they're gonna give you the job based on your love for Don Cornelius dolls?

[annoyed] It's not a doll, it's an action figure! And you've got no business being on the Soul Hyundai, let alone the Soul Train.

Yo, Carlton, people are complaining there ain't no bacon on the BLT's.

Carlton

Well, where’s the law that says the "B" has to stand for "bacon"? Read the damn sign!

Bread, lettuce and tomato!?

[Will and Carlton poke through the gifts]

Oooh, I wonder what's in here? [drops and breaks the gift]

Carlton

Probably something that has to be replaced.

Looka here, looka here. Look at these cute little money-sized envelopes. [extracts cash] BOOM-BYA! This is one of my favorite presents: Ben Franklin! [to the $100 bill] Excuse me, Ben, allow me to show you to your seat... [inserts the bill into his back pocket and spanks it]

Carlton

I had my knife. I went into the wild. But how's a little brave supposed to survive with all these bells and whistles? Well, the madness is over. I'm Carlton again.

Carlton, look. A quarter.

Carlton

WHERE!? (he crawls on the floor, looking for the quarter)

You're pathetic!

Carlton

You're right, Will. I've hit rock bottom. How come you can see the quarter and I can't?

Because there ain't no quarter. (he slaps Carlton in the head)

(At the roulette table)

Carlton

Come on, eight. Eight. I need an eight.

Carlton, what the hell are you doing?

Carlton

What does it look like I'm doing? I'm gambling.

You can't bet all your money on one number.

DDealer

And the winner is... eight.

Yes, I love you man!

Will So how much are we up?

Carlton

We're not up. We're down.

Wht do you mean "we"?

Carlton

Well, after I maxed out my credit cards-

Carlton, you maxed out your credit cards?

Carlton

Well, yeah. I couldn't get full value for the airline tickets.

You hocked our airline tickets?

Carlton

Well what do you expect? I only got $200 out of your ATM card. Word to the wise, Will, never leave your PIN number in your wallet.

Will You stole my wallet? How much do we have?

Carlton

Whatever's on the table.

Wait a minute...

(He reaches over to the table, but the dealer slaps his hand.)

Dealer And the winner is... eight...

YES!

DDealer

...teen.

NO! Wait, that says eighteen. We got eight. We should get something.

(The dealer shakes his head.)

Carlton

Hey guys. Look what I found.

Hey, it's the dummy.

Yeah and he found Safety Guy.
