You know, for the record, a lovely dinner doesn't necessarily preclude carpet burns and a bite mark on your ass.
AlanIn this case, it was just dinner and a pleasant conversation.
Well, that's why God gave us Cinemax and an opposable thumb.

You know, for the record, a lovely dinner doesn't necessarily preclude carpet burns and a bite mark on your ass.
AlanIn this case, it was just dinner and a pleasant conversation.
Well, that's why God gave us Cinemax and an opposable thumb.
Alan, sweetheart, you know I only want the best for you, right?
AlanUh...
I do! [to Berta and Rose]: I do! [to Alan]: Which is why, when Judith threw you out, I was right there supporting you.
AlanYou had other options?
Don't be naïve! I could have sucked up to Judith in order to have more access to my grandson. But, no, I burned that bridge. I said horrible things to her that I can never take back.
And keep in mind, this is a woman who worked the phrase "mousy bitch" into her wedding toast.
AlanWhat if he [Jake] comes back? Maybe I should go.
Or we could, uh, go upstairs and get in bed.
AlanBed? Our old bed?
My new bed.
AlanWhat was wrong with the old one?
Too many memories.
AlanOf what? You pretending to sleep and me watching Letterman?
AlanWhat are you doing?
Masticating.
AlanWhat?
Don't worry, it doesn't mean what you think.
AlanWhat do you think I think?
Jake [smiling]: You know...
Do you mind if I take your room?
AlanMy room? Gee, I, I--
Trust me, you want me to have a room with a private crapper.
AlanIncredible! I've been living here for two years, and you still consider me a houseguest.
No, my houseguests bring a bottle of wine and have sex with me.
AlanOh, I'm sorry, I'll go get some Chardonnay and assume the position.
Hey, don't be letting your mouth write checks your ass can't cash.
AlanYou know what the pecking order is in this house? Charlie, women Charlie sleeps with, Charlie's bookie, women Charlie hopes to sleep with, termites, me!
Well, that's just not right.
AlanYeah, but what am I supposed to do? I-I-I can't really afford my own place. I mean, I could, but it certainly wouldn't be on the beach, unless the beach was Guadalcanal.
It's a shame, you paying all that money for an ex-wife and an ex-wife's house, and you're not allowed inside either one.
AlanOh, this looks interesting: "Two-bedroom, needs work, up-and-coming neighborhood." Wh-- what does that mean, uh, "up-and-coming neighborhood"?
It means the realtor couldn't move the house saying "drug-ravaged battlefield".
[Jake made cupcakes for Alan and Charlie]
AlanIt's, uh, it's very tasty. What, uh, what prompted this?
I figured out I don't need a girlfriend. If I want a cupcake, I just make it myself.
Taking matters into his own hands. The metaphor is now complete.
Anybody want to lick the beater?
No.
AlanIsabella, I hate to be a fuddy-duddy, but we try to keep the house smoke-free.
I'm sorry. [she puts her cigarette out in Jake's cereal] Charlie didn't say anything when I was smoking in bed last night.
AlanYeah, well, Charlie's lungs aren't always on the same page as his penis.
AlanDo you have any idea what Isabella is really into?
So she's a little kinky!
AlanNo, no, no. "Kinky" is a feather duster up your butt. I think this woman tried to put a curse on me.
Oh, please, who of us hasn't done that? To know you is to curse you.
[seeing Alan's swollen eye] Great googooly moogoolies! What the hell happened to you?
AlanI'm not sure..
Looks like you got bitten in the face by one of them Ebola monkeys.
AlanI don't think so, Berta.
I mean, you were not exactly eye candy going in but... now. Woof! You could scare the flies off a manure truck!
Uncle Charlie?
Yeah, buddy.
You know what'd be cool? If you and Rose got married.
AlanYeah, Charlie, that would be cool! I could be the best man, carry the ring for you and the medication for her. Do pharmacies have bridal registries? Hey, have-- have you guys talked about having kids? Are we gonna hear the pitter-patter of teeny-weeny, crazy-ass feet? [to Jake]: No, he's not gonna marry Rose.
Why not? He's already getting sex from her.
Jake, Jake, the only reason Rose was in my bed is because she was too tired to go home.
Uncle Charlie, I'm an underachiever, not an idiot.
[Charlie opens the front door to find Evelyn using her cellphone]
Alan [on the phone]: Hello?
Alan! Oh, good, I'm glad you're home. [Alan turns around to see Evelyn at the door] Listen, uh, I'm in the neighborhood, and I know how Charlie hates it when I just drop in unannounced so I-- I thought I'd call first.
AlanI'll let him know. [hangs up the phone] Charlie, Mom's coming over!
Charlie [looking straight at Evelyn]: Tell her I'm not here.
Look, if you knew me at all and shut me down, it would be one thing, but to be dismissed on a simple "hello", well, that's a tough pill to swallow.
Would you rather I give it to you in a suppository?
Well, to be perfectly honest...
Good-bye. [leaves]
AlanHey, hey, did you hear that?
What?
AlanIt's a... it's a fat lady, and she's... singing.
You'd give up right now, wouldn't you?
AlanCharlie, Elvis has left the building! I mean, giving up is a little moot at this point.
Yeah, well, that kind of attitude is why you sleep alone with a copy of Monster Boobs magazine under your pillow.
AlanStay out of my room.
