(edit)
Denny: (To Alan) What do you mean she's measuring you for trousers? Is that some kind of fetish? Would I like it?
(edit)
Marlene: You missed your ten o'clock.
Alan: Um, something came up.
Marlene: Something was supposed to come up, at the closet, at ten o'clock.
Alan: I've got a few minutes now if you'd like to go somewhere and... grab a bite. (edit) (Referring to Jerry's legal problems and infatuation with a doll)
Alan: I've got to get him help. My God, if you saw the way he hugged her.
Denny: Is she cute?
Alan: Denny, its a doll.
Denny: Oh come on, don't tell me you've never gone to town with a doll?
Alan: (Laughs) No, as a matter of fact. (pause) Have you?
(Longer pause)
Alan: Denny...
Denny: Well, not just any doll. Well, I mean I'm not... ah, what's the word?
Alan: Peculiar?
Denny: But I suppose I've been with... a special doll.
Alan: Would I like her?
Denny: You want to meet her? (edit) Marlene: Brad, did you hear? Denise is getting married.
Brad: (to Denise) Really?
Denise: I was going to tell you.
Marlene: Sometimes it's easier to hear it from a third party.
(Denise attempts to hit Marlene, but she ducks as Denise's arm flies past)
Marlene: (emotionless) That could've hit me. (edit) Marlene: Denise.
Denise: Marlene.
Marlene: I hear you're getting married.
Denise: I am.
Marlene: Congratulations. It must be a relief to have some financial security. Does Buzz know?
Denise: Buzz?
Marlene: Buzz Lightyear. Isn't that the nickname for the Ken-doll with benefits?
Denise: Marlene, I'm finding it extremely difficult not to assault you right now.
Marlene: (deadpan) Oh, I'm sorry. Am I being too familiar? I thought we were girlfriends. I was hoping the relationship wouldn't change when I made partner and you didn't but I guess it has. Oh well. (edit)
Alan: Um, something came up.
Marlene: Something was supposed to come up, at the closet, at ten o'clock.

Can't We All Get a Lung?Fair "Average" For a season premiere? Now they could have done better. Seems like they spent more time on the title (which is cute by the way) rather than creating a griping season opener that could have captured new audience Continue » Posted Feb 17, 2007 6:25 pm PST |
