- Cabbie: Hey, you know how long it takes to wait in line for melon like this in the Soviet Union? Six hours it takes. Six hours!

- [Claire is shopping for a new dress]
- Willie Pipal: So, this party. Who did you say you were going to with anyway?

- Willie Pipal: And pleasure, I bet. Maybe it's this guy that's been making you so invisible lately.
- Claire McCarron: There's no guy.
- Willie Pipal: C'mon, Claire! I can barely get you on the phone, you haven't been to yoga class for weeks and now you're buying a dress that you can't afford. Don't tell me there's no guy.
