Corey : Joe, you're the best boss in the world. Can I bring Rex his lunch?
Joe : Berko's taking him his lunch.
Corey : Um Joe, you know that Berko's gonna insult him to his face I don't think that's such a good idea.
Joe : I don't care if Berko sticks an M-80 up his butt and lights it. In fact, I hope he sticks one up mine, it might be an improvement.
Corey : Joe, I have to bring Rex his lunch.
Joe : Berko is.
Corey : Joe, I need to bring him his lunch.
Joe : Berko is.

Joe : Deb, what are you doing?
Debra : I just wanted to have a little chat with Warren.
Warren : Yeah? Have a little chat with my gun.
[waves it under her nose]
Debra : [into the barrel of Warren's gun] What do you want Warren?
Warren : *Stop calling me Warren! My name isn't fucking Warren!*
[kicks furniture to underline point]
Eddie : His name isn't Warren.
Corey : [whispers] His name isn't Warren?
Berko : [whispering as well] His name isn't Warren?
Mark : I thought his name was Warren?
Debra : [to Warren] Well, you can't kill me 'cause I'm already dead. And I talked to God, and she says, "Yo, wassup?" and she wants you to lose the gun.
Warren : What? You are a psycho! A *psycho!*

Joe : [after Lucas enters] Lucas!
Lucas : Joe!
Joe : Where's the money?
Lucas : Joe, the money is gone.
Joe : Yeah, I know it's gone... but where's it gone to?
Lucas : Atlantic City.
Joe : Atlantic City?... Is it coming back from Atlantic City?
Lucas : [nervous laugh] Oh, I don't think so, Joe.
Joe : What's it doing in Atlantic City, Lucas?
Lucas : ...Recirculating.
Joe : Recirculating?
Lucas : Yeah.
[Joe knocks the donation cup that Lucas was carrying out of his hands and grabs his arm]
Joe : Lucas, listen to me. I told Mitchell Beck that you forgot to deposit the money. I told Mitchell that the money was still here.
Lucas : Joe, that's not true. It's in Atlantic City... I swear.
Joe : Shut up, sit down, and don't you move.
Lucas : [sitting down] It could be in other cities by now...
Joe : Oh, shut up! Under no circumstances do I want you to leave that couch... unless it's to get me $9000, and then you bring it here to me, okay?
Lucas : Okay. You know, I think things are gonna be all right now, Joe.
Joe : Oh? And what makes you think that.
Lucas : Who knows where thoughts come from? They just appear.
[nodding]
Lucas : Mmhmm!
Joe : ...What a moron.
