During the opening segment, a sort of fast-paced rap-like song plays, but close-captioning does not match and seems to reflect a much slower song.
Megan: That doesn't add up. Charlie: More than that, it defies mathematical principles. Constrained dynamics is used to analyze everything from traffic flow in supermarkets and malls to the mechanics of granular matter.... Colby: Meanwhile, back in the parking lot?
Charlie: But as we all know, machines aren't perfect, and the kids took advantage. Don: Right. And how'd they do that?
Marius: A guy wins five grand, I'm not risking twenty to life going after him. That's just economics 101. Megan: I still think I'm gonna need to see a list of employees over the past six months. Particularly the ones working security. That's just law enforcement 101.
Charlie: So, this is for a lecture I'm preparing, Math and Molecules: An Introduction to Fluid Dynamics. Don: Looks like, uh, mints and soda to me.
Don: That's a lot of notebooks. (flips through a notebook) Don: It's all numbers, equations. David: Lucky for us, we know a guy. Don: We do know a guy.
Alan: (on card counting) All those schmucks who play the game for fun, they think it's cheating. Larry: Those are the same schmucks who should stick to slot machines.
Alan: (to Charlie) Once again my living room has become a CalSci annex ... your living room.
Charlie: Can't you just see this as field work? Larry: Unfortunately, it's a poppy field.
Alan: What do you say? We bet the house! Charlie (smiles.. smile fades): You're not... you're not serious about betting the house? Alan: I'm always serious.
Alan: Hey, what are we talking about blackjack for.. let's play a real game. Don: A real game? Alan: Poker. Where all the math in the world is useless against the good read and steady nerves. Larry: Well, I've had enough action to last a lifetime. Besides, poker is for professional card players and underemployed celebrities.
Colby (about the guests at a strip club): Check out the mid-day crowd! It's like a bunch of dads got separated from their families on the bus to Disneyland!
Charlie: You said you attended my lecture! Amita: I had to dig out after roulette... I was prepping for my orals. Sorry. Charlie: Yeah.. yeah.. so much for an "Eppes Classic!"
Charlie: ..and we all know the importance of surface tension and fluid dynamics! Don: We do?
