Quotes

Margaret: Brenda, let me find you a better internship, one that's more suited to your talents. I hate to let the fact that I've slept with half of Southern California's psychiatric academia go to waste. (edit)
Ruth (To George): You tricked me into marrying you! You knew you were crazy and didn't tell me! And now I have to take care of you for the rest of my life! What did I do to fucking deserve this!? (edit)
George: Do you know what they call an Italian hooker? (Ruth looks at him awkwardly) A pasta-tute. (edit)
David (While embalming a body): He was run over.
Nate: Yeah, he ran over himself.
David (Confused): How do you do that?
Nate: I have no idea. (edit)
Gallery Owner: The world is an evil place, Claire! (edit)

Trivia

Nate is still wearing his pants when he gets out of the bed after he had sex. (Black tight shorts) (edit)
