Episode Quotes
 
McNeil: (to Toni) Let me explain a little something about adultery to you, sweetheart. It's the type of thing you wanna keep a lid on. You know, you don't send out 'Hey look at me I'm about to commit adultery' cards. You don't march in the Adultery Day Parade. And you don't meet each other's parents, okay? Believe me, it works. People have been doing it this way for thousands of years.
 
Tommy: (to Connie, in the jail cell) You know, I like a girl with strong opinions.
Connie: I could beat the piss outta you, with both hands tied behind my back.
Tommy: What would I be wearin'? (raises eyebrow)
 
Tommy: (to Connie, in the jail cell) So can I call you?
Connie: You got balls.
Tommy: You ain't kiddin'. You play your cards right and you'll get visual confirmation.
 
(Jan has just discovered that Barry likes to wear women's clothing)
Barry: Jan, I'm totally straight. It's just, every now and then I like to go out dressed as a woman and get hit on by strange men.
Jan: Oh, well, it's nice that we have that in common. And, it's a shame that I have to leave now.
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
Visual: Barry's chest hair

When Jan first meets Barry (in his Crystal alter-ego) he has a completely smooth chest displayed in a low-cut dress. But only a couple days later, when Jan goes to bed with Barry, he has a hairy chest.
 
 
Cultural References
 
McNeil: Great. I'm having an affair with Tony Soprano.

McNeil is referring to the mafia character Tony Soprano, from the HBO drama, The Sopranos. McNeil's girlfriend, Toni, is blackmailing him, threatening to cut off his testicles, and using words like "capiche," which are reminiscent of the behavior of a mafia boss.
 
 
Episode References
 
Visual: Patty

Patty, the woman in the restaurant who unknowingly reveals to Toni's parents that McNeil is married, is the same woman in the episode "Neighbor" who calls the police on Ruben and Al.
