Ben: "Why'd Tragle have to kill himself and leave us with this jackass?"

Tonto: "Sex-crazed, that's why."

Rena: "He wasn't sex-crazed! He was in love!"

Tonto: "With a dental technician?"

Rena: "Not everybody has to be beautiful to have someone fall in love with them."

Tonto: "You don't kill yourself over a dental technician."

Tonto: "You ever hear of "Romeo and Juliet"?"

Tonto: "Was she a dental technician?"

Rena: "No, but people do kill themselves when they can have the one they love!"

Lucas: "Are you referring to the size of my penis?"

Bruno: "Yeah, I am."

Lucas: "With a flaccid penis, it's the number of folds that count. Besides, I'm not semi-erect like some of you guys here."

Bruno: "What did you say?"

Lucas: "A University of Chicago study. You can tell the fags in a warm shower by who's got the longest dong. Hey, yours seems to be growing even now."

Bruno: "The hell it is!"

Lucas: "It IS, look!"

Cappie: "I'm just being nice to her."

Alise: "Well, stop being nice to her! I don't want you talking to her anymore, I don't want to turn around and see you walking with her and smiling at her. I don't want her in this car on Friday night. We're not giving her any ride to any goddamn dance, she can put her fat ass on the back of Lucas's bike where it damn well belongs!"

Lucas: "There is a dance on Friday, and if you and Alise could take Maggie and me, it'd be great. See, she has to meet people. She has a strong need for acceptance."

Lucas: "Yeah?"

Maggie: "So?"

Lucas: "So?"

Maggie: "So the band goes to football games!"

Lucas: "We're totally different!"

Maggie: "Why?"

Lucas: "Because the band does not have fun there!"
