Jane : No, we're not taking drug money on the road with us. Put it back.
Holly : Well, it's not like you can tell by looking at it.
Jane : OK, you have a point: we'll just take half, all right? And we are not taking drugs on the road with us, either. So give them back.
[Holly returns the stash]
Jane : Thank you.
Holly : You're welcome.

Holly : [while Abe munches on his cob of corn] See this is her old problem. She creates a situation where she gets this rejection that everyone else sees coming.
Robin : She just wasn't being honest.
Holly : Well, I think it's a black thing too.
Elaine : [more shocked] Jane is black?
Abe : [mouth full of corn from his cob] Yes, Ma'am. She sure is.
Robin : And you can't live a lie. You just can't.
Holly : [glancing at Abe] Well, there's lying and then there's... just not telling.
[Munching on his cob of corn, Abe glances up at her]
Robin : Big diff.
Elaine : She's a black Lesbian?
Abe : [mouth full of corn from his cob] Yes, Ma'am. That is right.
Elaine : [looking at Robin] And she was living here? With you?
Holly : No, no, no no, no no. She was just living here. They weren't like fucking or anything.
[Elaine gasps; Robin rolls her eyes. Abe laughs, nearly choking on his corn]
Holly : [seeing Robin's expression and reconsidering] Were you?
Elaine : [shocked] Were you?
Abe : [eager] Were you?
Robin : [indignantly disregarding them] Ah - I'll get the coffee.

Holly : Anyway, uhm... Jane called me at work, wanted to know how you are.
Robin : I'm fine.
Elaine : Who's Jane?
Abe : [mouth full of corn from his cob] Jane used to live here up until a few days ago.
Robin : You stay out of this, Holly. It's between me and Jane.
Holly : Well, she asked for my advice, so I told her she's anti-Lesbian.
Robin : I am not.
Elaine : [shocked] Who's a Lesbian?
Robin : Jane is.
Elaine : [shocked] And she was living here?
Abe : Yes, Ma'am.
Robin : [indignant] I am not 'anti-Lesbian'!
Holly : Not you, her.
Elaine : Who?
Robin : Jane.

Holly : Poor Nick. He's such a nice guy once in a while.
