Episode Quotes
Stan: Are you drunk?
Roger: Working on it.

Philip: Whoever sells the most cars by Friday wins a week in Hawaii.
Roger: Hawaii?! Thats where Japan goes to play golf!

Linda: I don't know why he's so mean to Francine, she's so nice....and pretty....
Bob: Oh, great. I know where this is going. Can I at least watch this time?

Roger: Don't you die on me, you bastard! You've never given up on anything before. Fight, damn you, fight!

Klaus: Speaking of killing, do you know what the French call an orgasm? "The little death." It harks back to the Middle Ages when only midgets were allowed to have orgasms. It's true. Read the Bible.

Roger: Cops already? What, are we next door to a freakin' Krispy Kreme?
Stan: You're thinking about donuts now?
Roger: No, I'm just saying the cops got here fast.
Stan: What the hell do fast cops have to do with a Krispy Kreme?
Roger: Because cops love donuts!
Stan: You're not making any sense!

Francine: Hey, Stan, now that you're stuck at home, I could really use your input on redecorating the living room.
Stan: Francine, the court order says I'm not allowed to leave the house. It doesn't say I have to give a crap about what it looks like.

Klaus: If that were a real Wish Bowl, it would be in the Ferrari of a 600-year-old Incan on the way to his job as Jessica Alba's G-string.

Stan: Oh, I... I don't know what to say.
Roger: Uh, you could say you have a whole new appreciation for how tough it is to be me.
Stan: There's something you should know about me by now, Roger. I don't learn lessons.

(Monkey's tearing up Roger's manual)
Roger: Hayley!
Hayley: Hey! I'm not the one who forgot to exercise the monkey's last night! Have you been to the basement lately?
Roger: Some of us work for a living!
Hayley: They've been huffing paint thinner, and having sex all night. It's like an eight grade house party down there!

Stan: Oh my God!... These Chocodiles, these Chocodiles Francine, oh my God, these Chocodiles, oh my God!



Episode Goofs
When Francine first gets her first black eye, it is just black around the edges, but when the cops come it is bloodshot. Although, a black eye may become bloodshot over time, I don't know.

Linda grabs her shirt in order to cover her cleavage from Stan, and when she removes her hand the buttons on her shirt are buttoned again.

Francine hits her eye on the door (the second black eye) and it is black for a moment, but is fine for the rest of the episode.

Early in the episode, Roger breaks his TV and complains to Stan that he is missing "The OC". Unless Roger watches the show on DVD, this is impossible because it's already been established that it's morning and "The OC" is a primetime show.



Cultural References
ES Suit

The ES Suit is somewhat like the one from the movie Aliens.



Episode References
Stan: By the way, Hayley, oh my God, these Chocodiles, these Chocodiles Hayley, oh my God, these Chocodiles, oh my God!

A few of Stan's lines from when he is acting like Roger are exact lines Roger has said from other episodes (Mostly the Pilot) like the one above.
