**Devon**: Whoa! Breaking Bad? I heard this show has adult situations.

**Donna**: Oh, that *is* great. Because there's so much work you can do *here*.
**Cleveland**: Uh, say what?
**Donna**: The gutters need to be cleaned, the lawn needs to be mowed, the house needs to be painted, inside and out, fix that hole, clean that plant up too, obviously, all the furniture in the guest room need to be taken to the garage, steam cleaned, and then put *back* in the guest room, except for the wood-carved African statue-
**Cleveland**: Excuse me.
*[Cleveland flies around the world like Superman and turns back time; He ends up going to the prehistoric age and comes face to face with a T-Rex]*

*[The T-Rex tries to bite Cleveland but Cleveland leaps up and flies back around the world forward and goes back to the present, right to the time just before he entered the house]*
**Cleveland**: Donna! You'll never believe it! I've been laid off!
**Donna**: Oh no! That's awful!
**Cleveland**: Yep!

**Dr. Fist**: These are great seats, Cleveland. How'd you get these tickets?
**Cleveland**: I bought 'em ... from a Scalper.
**Lester**: How much severance did you get?
**Cleveland**: Let's just say it had a comma in it.
**Lester**: *[whistles]* Exclermation point!

*[Donna eats at a diner, while the baseball game is on TV and she just barely misses seeing Cleveland and The Guys on TV]*
**Donna**: What's the score?
**Chef**: Nothing to nothing.
**Donna**: Who's winning?
**Chef**: The Bears.

**Lester**: Cleveland, what *is* this crazy place?
**Cleveland**: It's The Saturnine Spike. What's fine dining if it ain't high in the sky?
**Dr. Fist**: I miss The Broken Stool.
**Holt**: Yeah, The Stool is our *place*.
**Cleveland**: Guys, The Stool is for bums and working men. The Spike is classy.
**Tim**: But what about Gus?
**Cleveland**: Who needs Gus, when you've got our new bartender, Gustavo?
*[Gutavo, a French waitor version of Gus enters]*
**Gustavo**: Here you are, sir. Duck confit.
**Cleveland**: I only have nine dollars. I knew that coming here.

**Holt**: Dude, you already *MC Hammered* all your severance cash!?

**Donna**: Excuse me pi-I mean, officer. That's my husband, Cleveland. You gotta let me back up there!
**Pig**: Ma'am, I'm gunna need you to step back and take this breath strip.

**Tim**: I-I think it's time to back out now, uh, Cleveland. This uh, this-this is getting out of hand.
**Dr. Fist**: Yes, Cleveland. Your on a building towering 605 feet over solid concrete! As a doctor, I can safely say that you are not medically capable of surviving the potential fall.

**Cleveland**: *[narration]* I *did* sue Donna. She had to keep those extra jobs for a while to pay me off. I was then able to use that money to pay back my ill-gotten severance to Mr. Waterman, who was gracious enough to give me my old job back, and for no reason, showed me his penis.
