Episode Quotes

Sam: Actually, it’s not so bad.
Vanessa: Yeah, if you’re a seal.
Sam: Look, the Japanese practically live off this stuff.
Vanessa: Yeah, well, my poodle eats the grass off my daddy’s pooling device, but you don’t see me out there griming.
Sam: I’m sorry it’s not cherry’s jubilee but it’s the we’ve got so if you wouldn’t mind I’m gonna keep you alive so just sit there, shut up and eat some of this.

Al: Oh Sam, these are busy bunnies. They have six kids by the time they get picked up in 1965!

Vanessa: Oh go ahead, you can just babble on as much as you want, you can even drool but I know you’re not crazy!
