Shirley: Are you okay?
Denise: It's just that ever since Daniel died, I... All I can think about is...
Shirley: Yeah.
Denise: Sex. (Shirley looks startled) I walk down the street anything I pass in pants... I wanna have sex!
Shirley: Oh.
Denise: I'm not kidding, Shirley. I wanna screw anybody and everybody. Denny Crane is looking good to me right now. (edit) Denny: I must admit that the idea of a mother-daughter ménage à twaddle.
Alan: I think you mean trois. (edit) Jeffrey: Denny. Seen Shirley?
Denny: Why?
Jeffrey: She was gonna meet me.
Denny: Why?
Jeffrey: We had some business to discuss.
Denny: What sort of business?
Jeffrey: The kind that wasn’t yours, actually.
Denny: I told Alan, I’m telling you. Stay away from Shirley. (edit) Renee: She loved me.
Alan: Well, you made her laugh.
Renee: I'm funny.
Alan: Are you telling me this handwritten will is valid?
Shelby: Completely. It turns out Ms Winger is also a lawyer.
Renee: The plot thickens. (edit) Shirley: When you came here I made one request, Jeffrey. One simple request, "Don't step on toes." Silly me for not adding, "Don't punch jaws." (edit)

In the "Previously on Boston Legal" segment, a clip is shown of Lincoln Meyer (David Dean Bottrell) shouting at the judge. This clip was not shown during the previous episodes. (edit) When Alan Shore offers the highlighted insurance policy to opposing counsel, counsel extends his left hand to take it. When Alan then whips the policy away, we see it coming out of counsel's *right* hand. (edit)

Jeopardy
The 'final Jeopardy' theme from the gameshow is heard as Denny, Bella and Bethany await the results of the paternity test. (edit)
