Jason Ralph: Mike Carr

Quotes 

• Aaron Lebowitz : Okay, but I'm telling it. Mike was the talent booker. He and Susie started getting all buddy-buddy. Another odd couple, like her and Harry.

  [Flashback to Toots Shor's bar] 

  Miriam 'Midge' Maisel : No, you know how you say a word too many times, it stops sounding like a word? Well, there's a word for that.

  Ralph : What's the word?

  Miriam 'Midge' Maisel : I can't remember the word.

  Adam : Cess, you went to Harvard. What's the word?

  Cecil : I don't know. I didn't major in words.

  Miriam 'Midge' Maisel : It's gonna bug me.

  Mike Carr : [At another part of the bar]  She's doing the tennis pro.

  Susie Myerson : Get out.

  Mike Carr : People say.

  Aaron Lebowitz : [voice-over]  Was it legit camaraderie, or just Susie working some angle? Either way the angle presented itself.

  Susie Myerson : Hey, Mike, who made that dumb rule that anyone who works on the show can't be on the show?

  Mike Carr : It's George. George made the rule about no one working on the show appearing on the show. It's some dumb superstition of his dating back to, I dunno, when he was a boy in Pompeii. Gordon follows it 'cause... I don't know. I don't know anything.

  Susie Myerson : George, huh?

  Miriam 'Midge' Maisel : Semantic satiation!

  Cecil : That's two words.
