* Lawyer: Before we sign, we'd like to hear what your witness has to say. Alex: And why is that necessary? Lawyer: Because you might be bluffing. (Alex, Joey and Michael all burst out laughing) Alex: I don't think so. Lawyer: Please. Alex: Okay. Joey, why don't you prove to these people beyond the shadow of a doubt that we are not bluffing. Michael, let's hold hands. Joey: Uhh, yes... I remember the day very well... Especially the science... stuff. A lot of numbers were used... Six, twelve, fourteen... all the usual suspects.
* Joey: Where are you from? Glen: Minnesota. Joey: Wow, you're English is great. 
* Gina: I haven't been in a lawsuit since that dog-biting thing. Joey: Whoa, whoa, whoa. A dog bit you? Michael: No, no. She bit the dog.
