• Jon Stewart: Jon Stewart, here for my 2 o'clock with Dr. Katz.
  Laura: Hello.
  Jon Stewart: Hi. (sees Ben) Ah, are you here first?
  Ben: Oh, I'm not here to see the doctor.
  Jon Stewart: No, no, no, you don't have to be shy about it, we all have problems.
  Ben: I'm not in therapy at all!
  Jon Stewart: Uhhh, me neither!

• Ben: (Ben bursts into the office wearing a jogging suit) Laura - check it out!
  Laura: You're going to the gym?
  Ben: No, this is my walk outfit.
  Laura: You bought an outfit?
  Ben: Yeah, I mean, I borrowed - I'm gonna return it, after. I left the tags on. [edit]
• Ben: Maybe I'll start calling you by your first name now.
  Dr. Katz: It always bothered me when kids called their parents by their first names. It's a sign of a decaying relationship.
  Ben: You think so? What if I give you a nickname, like JK?

• Jon Benet Ramsey
  
  Wanda Sykes mentions the unsolved murder of 6 year-old beauty pageant contestant Jon Benet Ramsey. The young girl was found murdered in the basement of her parents' Colorado home, and while many suspected the family, which were not 100% cooperative with investigators, had something to do with it, the police couldn't prove their suspicions.
