- : What you were saying is you're a bug wuss who wants to get out of his date tomorrow night.
  : I don't believe I was saying that.
  : I believe you were.
  : And it's not a date.
  : I believe it is.
  : I'm saying it's not an actual date.
  : Right, and I'm saying you're a wuss.
  : Can we be men for a second?
  : Ok, but just a second.
  : I really don't wanna go.
  : No kidding.
  EDIT SHARE
- (After a back and forth about her name being spelled with an "s", Leesa but pronounced with a z, Leeza)
  Leesa: Listen, I don't know you two very well, and maybe it's just because you're drunk, but I think you're unnecessarily intense about your show. (laughing uncomfortably) Gordon's right, it's just sports, for crying out loud, it's not the Paris Peace Talks.
  Dana: Ah, get yerself a real name.

- Jeremy: I really thought they were gonna make the trade.
  Natalie: And I was pretty certain they weren't.
  Jeremy: I know.
  Natalie: In fact, I'm pretty sure I bet you five dollars they weren't gonna make the trade.
  Jeremy: Yes, I know.
  Natalie: You took the position that they were gonna make the trade, and [looking around at the others in the conference room, rubbing it in] I was an advocate for the notion that they were not.
  Jeremy: These are all things that I know.
  Natalie: Do you know you owe me five dollars?
  Jeremy: [holding out the forlorn hope] Trade deadline's midnight!
  Natalie: I'm gonna want a crisp five dollar bill, not some raggedy-assed thing from the newstand...
