Hostility and Self-Reflection in a Cab
Disco Cabbie
Uh, I'm sensing a lot of hostility coming from the back seat.
[Ellie is riding with Disco Cabbie complaining about finding Kevin with Lucy]
Ellie
Oh, really? That's very astute.
Disco Cabbie
Well, that's not good for me, man. That kind of energy damages the plush interior of my cab, right? And you're blowing a $5.00 high, mama. You need to find yourself a man who's secure enough to appreciate you for the superior woman that you are. I like a strong woman.
Ellie
Oh... yeah. Mm-hmm.
Disco Cabbie
And you are a strong woman. If I was you, I would pull over with me and celebrate our strength together. What do you think about that, baby?
Ellie
This corner's great. This corner's fantastic for me.

Reflection on Narcissism in Relationships
Ellie
I've dated enough narcissistically neurotic men to know that you are all just a pack of roving babies in search of a giant teat from which to suck the lifeblood out of me until I am a hollow shell.

Authority and Chaos in Talent Show Planning
Susie
Beth, I may regret saying this, but how dare you usurp my authority as producer...
[angry that Beth has invited Steve to take part in the talent show]
Ben
Hmph!
Susie
...director-slash-choreographer of the talent show. I need you to know I have been busting my balls, woman! I am telling you, the musical numbers are a mess, my kids are a bunch of amateurs, and the last thing I need today is some diabetic freak prancing around on stage making my life a living hell! All right; I'll put him on last.
[after a long pause and a glare from Beth]
Beth
Good.
Susie
Oh, she always wins!

Unexpected Reunions and Old Connections
Heather Mooney
That's Sandy Frink? The hell was I thinking?
[goes somewhere else]
Christie
Sandy, hi! You look so rich. I mean, great.
[tries to greet Sandy; Frink slightly smiles at her but moves on]
Sandy Frink
Michele. After all these years, you still take my breath away.
Michele
Thanks. So you must be, like, the most successful person in our entire graduating class.
Sandy
Well, I guess that depends on how you define "success." If, to you, success means having a house in Aspen. one in Acapulco, penthouse in New York, mansion in Malibu, 60-foot yacht, an eight-seat Windstar, a Bell Jet Ranger, a Bentley, a personal trainer, a full-time chef, a live-in masseuse, and a staff of 24, then, yeah... I guess I am successful. But no matter how much I accumulate... there's still one thing I just don't have.
Michele
Your own country?
[lost in his monologue]
Sandy
I don't have you, Michele. Will you dance with me?
Michele
Only if Romy can dance with us.
Sandy
Sure.
[they perform a dance rendition of Time After Time]
