Garrett: This is my office.
Catherine: Oh, I needed a base of operations for my sandwich cart business.

Gil Furnald: I'm not sick.
Denny: Lighten up, man. So what, you got caught in a skirt? That what you're saying?

Gracie Jane: [on TV] It takes more than a stiff whack on the head to keep me down, folks. Trust me, I get hit harder during sex. I'm only sorry this creepo didn't have at me with a shovel during sweeps.

Shirley: Are you telling me you're the one who assaulted her?
Lincoln: I say that in confidence, of course.

Gracie Jane: Gracie Jane.
Denny: Are you making fun of me?

Ivan: [about his wife, Missy] God, I hate her.
Shirley: Oh boy.
Ivan: I tried this time. I want to love her. No, I do love her. She's just too much. Too much singing, too much sex. I'm not a young man anymore. And, well, there's the fact that she's stupid.

Ivan: I brought wine, cheese, and condoms. I thought we'd picnic.
Shirley: Missy came to my office today.
Ivan: Aw. So just the wine and cheese.

Jeffrey: Bit of a weak stream you got going there. Get your prostate checked?
Brad: What did you say to me?
Jeffrey: Never mind.
Brad: So what? You're gonna make fun of my flow now?
Jeffrey: I'm sorry. It just seems a little lackluster. I would think a Marine would be a little more 'Hup To'. You gonna hit me, Brad?
Brad: Oh, you'd just love that, wouldn't you? For me to sink to your level.

Jeffrey: By the way, you are?
Denise: Drop dead.

Jeffrey: Denny. Seen Shirley?
Denny: Why?
Jeffrey: She was gonna meet me.

Denny: I told Alan, I'm telling you. Stay away from Shirley.

Cop: I thought you came down here to cooperate?
Jeffrey: You killed the moment.

Jeffrey: In which case he officially asks for he's lawyer and you can't talk to him. What is this? Good cop bad cop? If so, send in the good cop!
Cop: [Stare]
Jeffrey: That's quite a look.

Jeffrey: I suppose we better work this out.
Brad: Does it have to be now?
Jeffrey: Well, it is the season. Peace on Earth...love for your fellow man...
Brad: Wait. What was that?
Jeffrey: "Love for your fellow man"?
Brad: No, before that.
Jeffrey: "Peace on Earth"?
Brad: Liberal. I knew it!

Jeffrey: Small point. Mr Little here is a witness. Your questions seems to suggest he's a suspect. Maybe it's just me. You might try asking whether there were any cars parked in the street. Any strange people in the area. Any other information that might shed some light into who killed her. You do wanna know right?
Cop: You wanna let me do my job?
Claire: He's hoping you'll do it.
Cop: [Stare]
Claire: What? You wanna ask me out?
