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!
(edit) Alan: I think we've just had our first three-way.
Denny: It didn't look like Shirley enjoyed it as much as we did. You know, she tasted differently than I remember....
Alan: (chuckles) That's because it was my slobber on her mouth, Denny. We've finally exchanged bodily fluids.
Denny: (quickly downs his glass of wine) Blech! (edit) White Supremacist Twins: (singing) Michael rowed the boat ashore...Hallelujah! Michael rowed the boat ashore....
Alan: You do know that Michael was a homosexual Jew from Mexico, right? (edit) Denise: (to Brad and Jeffrey, scoldingly) You're both partners! I'm not. So why am I the only one acting like an adult? (edit) Denny: Objection. Your Honor, she's being...objectionable!
Judge: Sustained. (edit) Alan: What's my motivation?
Shirley: Excuse me?
Alan: My character's motivation. Surely you can't expect me to simply jump in and take this case! (edit) Denny: Now, don't go knocking fat chicks! I love chubby-sex. (looks over at the female judge) I'm sure Your Honor does. (edit) "Pro-Ana" Lawyer: I guess we'll see each other in court.
Denny: (under his breath) Not if you turn sideways. (edit) Shirley: (to Alan) This was one of Edwin Poole's cases. Somehow it managed to slip through my cracks, so I was sure you'd find it especially tasty. (edit)

The twin blonde singers are based on the real life white supremacist singers Lamb and Lynx Gaede, who perform as Prussian Blue. (edit)
