[Sam has leapt into Dr. Ruth, right in the middle of her Frank Talk About Sex radio show]
Caller : I have a problem most people would envy.
Sam : Uh, yes, w-what is your problem?
Caller : Well, I get orgasms that are so incredible and overwhelming that I end up pushing my husband out of bed. The last time, he got all bruised and scraped. Is there any answer for me?
Sam : [pause] Knee pads?

Al : Sam. Sex is not dirty. It's a very natural thing. Being frank about it, and educating your children to be morally responsible and safe, er, is better than sweeping it under the rug.
Sam : That's a pretty mature attitude, coming from somebody like you.
Al : No, it's not coming from me. That's coming from the real Dr. Ruth in the Waiting Room.

[Sam is recording promos for Dr. Ruth's radio show]
Sam : [very uncomfortably] This is Dr. Ruth Westheimer. Tomorrow on Frank Talk About Sex, we're going to discuss some common male sexual dysfunctions like premat-ture... premature... Well, we're gonna discuss a lot of things that I'm sure will be very stimulating. U-uplifting. Interesting! And that'll be tomorrow, right here, on my show.

Debbie Schaefer : ...Three days later you said you had the jitters. You stopped performing, remember?
Al : Oh, this sounds juicy.
Doug Bridges : What exactly do you mean by "performing"?
Debbie Schaefer : Do I have to spell it out for you? The cork on the champagne bottle wouldn't pop.
Doug Bridges : Uh-huh.
Debbie Schaefer : The thrusters weren't thrusting.
Doug Bridges : Oh, really?
Debbie Schaefer : There was no lift-off!
Sam : Could we change the subject, please?
Doug Bridges : No, please, let her go ahead. I think there's a couple in the next room who didn't hear about my thrusters!
Al : Not so good, Sam.
Sam : What am I supposed to do?
Doug Bridges : Get her a bullhorn. She can announce it from the Chrysler Building: "Doug's rocket didn't launch!"

Annie Wilkins : Why would someone as famous as you care about someone like me?
Sam : How do you think I got to be so famous? Besides, helping people's what I do for a living.

Sam : [whenever Sam's mind merges with Dr Ruth's] Now, we are getting somewhere.
