• John Munch : Where's my old Stanley?

  Al Giardello : Oh my god...

  John Munch : I can't wake up in the morning, I can't face the day unless I know he's gonna be more miserable than me! The whole world's outta whack, G! You gotta do something!

  Al Giardello : Like what?

  John Munch : Order him to be miserable again!

  Al Giardello : Aw, stop it...

  John Munch : Look Boss, it's for his own good, it's a safety issue, the guy's DANCING IN TRAFFIC... there's gotta be something in the books to forbid happiness... it's UNPROFESSIONAL!

• Al Giardello : I am NOT grieving...

  Stanley 'The Big Man' Bolander : You are still dating the same two women from five years ago! One of 'em you take to dinner at Gellazio's every Friday night! The other you take to the shore! You are still at the funeral!

• Al Giardello : Stanley, I'm pleased for you... pleased and jealous. Now, my only advice to you is, uh... use a rubber.

  [Stanley nods his head and smiles excitedly]
