Episode Quotes |

Jack: Well, this co-host better not steal focus from me. I want a real toad! An Ed McMahon.
Amber: (Walks in) Hi! I'm Amber-Louise from the great state of Alabama.
Jack: Oh, even better, a British woman.
| (Pushing the American flag out of the way)
Jack: Stars & Dykes Forever, where did this come from?!?
| Amber: Okay, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. I'm not who you think I am. My real name is Peg. And I'm a hardcore lesbian. I'm into leather play, butch white girls, skunkin', pullin' the blinds, and poodle balling. Whatever you got, I'll eat it, snort it, or ride it, baby.

Episode Goofs |
| |
When Wanda makes the ad-libbed joke about "tuck it in", Debra jerks her head away and almost cracks up. But saves herself at the last moment.
| Storyline aside, why didn't Karen bother to mention she wanted a baby once before with Grace, much like she did with Jack? The divorce makes sense, but wouldn't it have added to make reference to this episode again? It seems like a minor plot left out to make way for something new.

Takei: That's what the show was about? Well, now I'm glad I did it!
Throughout the episodes, several references are made toward the original "Star Trek" and behind the scenes stuff. Like Shatner's speech and the meaning of the show.
| Rosario: You rang?
Karen: Yes, Lurch.
A quick reference to the 1960's show "The Addams Family."
