Jerry Minor: Richard

Quotes 

• Tom : Richard, hi. Hi.

  [to Marina] 

  Tom : Should we get back in there? Oh, do you hear that? I think it's starting.

  Richard : [flatly]  I'm obviously excited to see the top half of Julia Child, but I'd like to hear Marina's response.

  Marina : Uh, okay. Well, Richard...

  [sighs] 

  Marina : Like, what is property?

  Tom : [under his breath]  Yikes.

  Marina : You know? Like, do we own it, or in a way, does it own us?

  Richard : That doesn't make much sense.

  Tom : Yeah, well, I think what she's trying to say is that...

  Tom , Marina : [interrupts Tom]  Property is an abstract concept.

  Tom : [under his breath]  No.

  Richard : I'm trying to follow you, but it's incredibly difficult.

  Marina : Fine. I'm super high.

  Tom : Marina...

  Marina : Yeah. I was supposed to relax tonight. Tom was supposed to relax. We were all supposed to relax, but we can't because we're all paranoid about you and your questions. Questions, questions...

  [snarling] 

  Tom : [steps between Marina and Richard]  Hey, hey. We're very sorry, okay? She would never be like this at work. You know that.

  Marina : [whimpers]  The quest is on.

  Tom : She's a very serious person.

  Marina : Quest on!

  Richard : Marina...

  Marina : Hmmm.

  Richard : I'm gonna have to ask you to stop right there. Because I too am super high right now.

  Tom , Marina : [overlapping]  Say what? What?

  Richard : I'm tripping balls. I ate two THC-enhanced sour straws. It's a 3 1/2 hour musical, Marina. That's unacceptable. I thought you would've known by the outrageous way I was acting.

  Tom , Marina : [overlapping]  No, not really. No. This is how you always are, Richard.

  Richard : It's kind of you to lie like that. The only reason I was talking about work so much is, I was covering for how absolutely blazed I am right now. Just blitzed out of my skull. I'm higher than Jerry Garcia on the space shuttle. Nailed it.

  Tom : Right. Well, great.

  [chuckles] 

  Tom : I can't believe you're both high.

  Richard : Don't be such a square, Tom.

  [Tom looks perplexed] 

  Richard : Now, can you help me back to my seat? I can't feel my legs.

  Marina : I can't feel my hands.

  Tom : [herding Marina and Richard]  Okay, well, let's get you guys back to your seats. Stick together. I don't want to lose anyone. Okay, that's enough food. Ooh, got you, buddy. Come on. This way.

• Marina : Okay, I'm taking your gummy too.

  Tom : You sure that's a good idea?

  Marina : It's fine. Worst case, I fall asleep.

  [whispering] 

  Marina : Which is also best case.

  Richard : Marina!

  Marina : That's weird. It's already kicking in. I thought I just heard my boss.

  Richard : Marina! Marina!

  Marina : And now I think I'm seeing my boss.

  Tom : Wait, that's Robot Richard?

  Marina : Yep, he's utterly emotionless.

  Richard : [flatly]  Marina, I thought that was you, and it was. What a pleasant surprise.

  Marina : [irritated]  What are you doing here? I mean,

  [cheerfully] 

  Marina : Richard, hi! What are you... what are you doing here?

  Richard : I have a niece in the show. She's playing Clara Barton, the founder of the Red Cross. As you can tell, I'm over the moon.

  Tom : [perplexed]  Huh.

  Marina : Our niece is in the show too.

  Richard : What a funny coincidence, Marina. I'm very excited that we ran into each other.

  Tom : Are you?

  Richard : Don't I sound excited?

  Tom : Oh, no, yeah. No, very.
