- Gilbert: I also knew the Beetles when they were getting together and they also, they couldn't come up with a name for their group. In fact, they uh, came to me and said, '...We're thinking of calling ourselves 'Five Nice-Looking Young Men Who Play Musical Instruments And Are Not Jewish'.' And I said, 'I think it's a long title and I think it's information that is not necessary.' ... Finally, they came to me and said, 'We're gonna call ourselves 'The Beatles ... Who Just So Happen to Not Be Jewish'.' Edit
- Dr. Katz: I have created what's called a profit sharing plan, which means that every quarter, I will put some money from this company into a, essentially a retirement account ... Money that will become yours when you turn 59. Laura: Oh ... could I just have an extra 15 minutes for lunch instead? Edit
- Ben: Since I haven't sent the chain letter, people have died, and nobody loves me. Do you see the connection? Dr. Katz: Yeah, nothing has changed, essentially. Edit
