• Parker Braithwaite : How can "The Senator and Stinky" get a zero share?

  Francine Kester : Not one of the fifteen hundred Computron sets were tuned into it. In short, nobody watched.

  Parker Braithwaite : Nobody watched, huh? It just so happens that we received four hundred letters complaining about the show... so somebody's watching.

  Francine Kester : None of the Computron households.

  Parker Braithwaite : Households. That's the flaw in your system! You don't take into account college dormitories... prisons... Our shows get a lot of fan mail from mental institutions. That never shows up in your ratings!

• Vic De Salvo : I don't remember any Francine Kester on the invite list, do you, Skip?

  Skip : Please, I have no knowledge of this woman.

  Francine Kester : You don't look like you've had knowledge of any woman.

• Francine Kester : What a place you've got here.

  Vic De Salvo : Yeah.

  Francine Kester : You're not an Arab, so you must be a drug dealer.

• Francine Kester : I guess that girl tonight hurt you pretty bad.

  Vic De Salvo : Nah, that was one of my healthier relationships. At least she didn't torch my warehouse. Some of them get vicious.
