Alan

How much did you tip him [the pizza delivery man]?

I don't know. I gave him a fifty.

Alan

That's... that's like a 300 percent tip!

If you say so. I was never good at math.

Alan

Oh, yeah, but you can figure out the point spread, the over-under, and the vigorish on every football game in the country.

What can I tell you? I've got a beautiful mind.

[at the supermarket]

I can't do this anymore, Alan. I quit.

Alan

You can't quit poverty, Charlie.

I want the good stuff! I want cheese that isn't air-dropped into Third World countries! I want ouchless toilet paper! I want vodka that doesn't look like Fred Flintstone would drink it! I want my life back.

Alan

Fine. Then swallow your pride, call Mom, and ask her to lend you some money.

Charlie [opening the bottle of generic vodka]: Yabba-dabba-doo.

Alan

Hey Charlie, what's miscellaneous cash expenses?

You know, extra things. Like if I want a hot dog or tickets to the movies.

Alan

It's $40,000!

Gambling losses, etcetera, etcetera

Alan

Charlie, miscellaneous cash expenses? What exactly is that?

I don't know, go see a movie, buy a hot dog, stuff like that.

Alan

It was $80,000 last year!

Oh, that. That's women and gambling.

Alan

Gone and gone.

Oh, great! Why don't I just shoot myself?

Alan

You can't afford a gun.

[Frankie and Alan kiss, and Alan starts crying]

FFrankie

What's the matter?

Alan

I don't know! It's been so long since anybody's touched me!

[Alan goes to bed with Charlie]

Alan?

Alan

Yes?

It's been so long since anybody's touched me!

Who gets him [Jake] in that [worst-case] scenario thing?

Alan

Cousin Jerry and his wife Fay.

Jerry and Fay? Why Jerry and Fay?

Alan

Well, they-- they've a good marriage, three kids, lots of dogs, a big backyard, and they live in a great school district.

Yeah, but I'm your brother!

Alan

Charlie, it's--

And I live right here! You wouldn't have to ship him off to... Cornhole, Kansas!

Alan

Coventry, Rhode Island.

Who am I thinking of that lives in Kansas?

Alan

I don't know, Dorothy and Toto?

Alan

What's this?

A picture of Jill. Look at it, will you?

Alan

The woman who dumped you?

She didn't dump me, will you get over that?!

Alan

All right, why are we looking at Jill?

Just look at it!

Alan

All right, she's cute. Very tall, broad shoulders-- HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!

Welcome to The Matrix.

Alan

So-so-so Jill is-is-is--?

Yep.

Alan

And-and-and you and-and Jill used to--?

Every chance we got

Alan

Now mom is--?

At this very moment.

Alan

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!

Alan

Do you realize what this means?

Yes. I slept with a woman who wanted to be a man. Or, I slept with a man in a woman’s body. Or - and this is my new favorite, and the title of my autobiography - my mom and I slept with the same dude.

OK, fine. You always wanted Liz, go ahead. Here's your chance. Give her your little "adjustment". And maybe while you're having a good time with my sister, I'll have a good time with your brother. [puts her right arm around Charlie]

Beg pardon?

Oh, don't be coy with me, Charlie. You know we've always had sexual tension between us!

Really? I... thought it was just regular tension.

Come on, I've seen you looking at my chest.

Alan

You looked at my wife's chest?

Hey, I'm a guy!

S1 E19 I Remember the Coatroom, I Just Don't Remember You
View quote →

Granted, I have no idea what's it like to be an eleven-year-old boy, but I do know one thing, sweetheart. You have no idea what real unhappiness is. Real unhappiness is being totally ignored by the very people you gave birth to! Real unhappiness is when you're recovering from liposuction and your only grandson doesn't even send you a get-well card. And FYI, I only had that surgery so you wouldn't have a grandmommy with matronly upper arms.

Alan

Well, if he didn't need a shrink before, he needs one now.

S1 E20 Hey, I Can Pee Outside in the Dark

[Jake is upbeat after several days of being sullen]

Alan

What happened to him?

If I didn't know better, I'd swear he got laid last night.

I hope you don't mind, but I talked to him before he went to sleep last night.

Alan

What did you say?

I said: "Drink this bottle of prune juice". You feed him nothing but pizza and pancakes! It's a wonder his eyeballs are still in their sockets.

Hey, if you listened to me in the first place, you wouldn't be in this mess. I'm the one who told you not to marry her.

Alan

You're also the one who told me that if I jumped off the garage roof with a bath towel tied around my neck, I could fly to school.

The one time you listen to me.

Alan

Let me tell you another thing: if I hadn't married Judith, there would be no Jake.

I didn't say you couldn't knock her up!

Hey, that was quick.

Alan

Yeah. Like every other time Judith screwed me.

What happened?

Alan

What happened? I'll tell you what happened. My settlement conference turned into a drive-by colonoscopy.
