You know, sittin' down next to you in there got me crazy. I got a hard on. You know, I don't like to admit it; but, I did. I mean, you don't know me, I don't - I - I try to come off like I'm being cool all the time, you know. I don't like to look like I'm hustling and there I was sittin' next to you with a boner. Am I embarrassing you?

  Carol Heathrow : Go on.

  Boogie : I don't know, it's just that the pain was killin' me, you know. To stop the pain, it was digging into the side of my leg, so, what I did was, you know, I opened my fly and loosened everything up. Just to give it a little air. And it worked. Everything settle down and I got caught back up into the picture and then, you know, that's when Sandra got her leg caught on that bush and she lifted up her dress. You know, it just popped right up, through the bottom of the popcorn box! The force of it just opened up the flap.

  Carol Heathrow : It just pushed the flap open?

  Boogie : It's Ripley's, I'm tellin' ya, it just pushed the flap right open and I couldn't move the box. You know, you would've seen it.

  Carol Heathrow : That's true.

• Fenwick : I said, "You like the way she looks, take her."

  [laughs]

  Boogie : Falsies.

  Fenwick : Were they?

  Boogie : First hand info.

• Diane : Why don't you take me home?

  Diane : I thought you worked in a Beauty Parlor?

  Boogie : Yeah, I do - during the day.

• Billy : I can't believe that Eddie is getting married.

  Boogie : It's crazy. I mean with Shrevie, here, it was nuts. With Eddie, it's lunacy.

  Shrevie : Hey! Marriage is all right. I'm not complaining.

  Boogie : Not complaining? Huh? That sounds wonderful.

• Fenwick : It isn't 100% sure thing, right guys?

  Billy : What? What do you mean? He's getting married New Year's Eve.

  Boogie : No, no. Not until she takes the test.

  Billy : What are you talking about?

  Boogie : Tell him.
