Stephen Root: Jimmy James

Quotes 

• Jimmy : I had a dishwashing detergent with a great name: "Dandy Clean". Everybody trusted it, then that whole break-dancing fad hit, and my people told me to change the name so I can stay hip. The whole thing went bust in less than a year.

  Lisa : What did you change the name to, sir?

  Jimmy : Break-dancing Detergent.

• Jimmy : What's her problem?

  Max : Beth thinks I'm only quitting to get her to go out with me.

  Jimmy : Are you?

  Max : No, although I'm not averse to a quickie.

• Lisa : Mr. James, tell Joe he can't copyright my name.

  Jimmy : You can't copyright any employee's name.

  Lisa : See?

  Jimmy : Because I own the copyrights to all your names.

  Matthew , Joe Garrelli : What?

  Jimmy : When are you people going to start reading your contracts?
