Eric: Ok, Corinna. Um, I don't know how to say this, so I'm gonna choose my words very carefully. I think you're a psycho. I wanna get as far away from you as I possibly can.
(edit)
Cory: Lock up your daughters, the hormones will be a-flyin' tonight! So, you believe me?
Shawn: No, but you're very sweet. (edit) Cory: Morgan! Have we learned nothing from the purple duck? (edit) Alan: So, its done?
Eric: Oh, of course its not done. I mean, don't you know me at all? Why would you send me to do something like that?
Alan: She smiled at you?
Eric (waves hands in starburst motion): Geh-heh!
Alan: Alright, look. Take her to lunch and ask her to take her act further down the road. Can you handle that?
Eric: Can I handle that? Yeah, I can handle that. Or fail to do so. But I'm gonna need some money, so can you give me some 'cause I gave her all of mine. (edit) Topanga: You have no idea what this is about, do you?!
Cory: Yes I do, and it happens to be a very important issue; not just to me and you but to all men and women in relationships, both here and abroad.
Topanga: You have no idea what this is about, do you?!
Cory: Oh, do I ever?! (edit)
Shawn: No, but you're very sweet. (edit) Cory: Morgan! Have we learned nothing from the purple duck? (edit) Alan: So, its done?

Song Title: "Eric Matthews, You're So Vain You Probably Didn't Know the Song Before This Was About You"
This is an allusion to the song "You're So Vain" by Carly Simon, in which she sings about an unnamed guy who had scorned her. (edit) Billy: They're trying to kill it!
The little kid that wants to stay up late to watch his favorite show is obviously referring to Boy Meets World itself, a show that was moved around on the Friday night lineup several times during it's run. He later refers to the "Curly haired kid", an obviously reference to Cory, to which Cory responds: "I love him, he's such a doof!" It is interesting to note that Billy says that the curly haired kid is digging himself in deeper and deeper, which was what Cory was doing at that exact second. (edit)
