00:01:50 Edie, baby, calm down.
00:03:58 I think you'd love the opera. The music and the voices,
00:05:33 Good. Then tell the pretty lady goodbye
00:07:03 I know who she is.
00:08:39 She's never too young to start accessorizing.
00:10:17 They told me I gotta talk to a judge.
00:11:48 Yeah, I see that now.
00:14:25 But trust me, Tom is gonna go to town.
00:15:53 Hold up.
00:17:45 Karl was doing it with his secretary.
00:19:05 and I can be that friend.
00:20:45 - and when she's... - Let's not make a scene.
00:22:39 Look, man, it's OK if you like her.
00:24:55 Last game, I threw 246 yards.
00:26:46 it'd make your head spin.
00:28:29 No! I am not doing this for you!
00:30:51 Peter?
00:32:28 It didn't take her long to figure out
00:34:09 Yeah, I kind of figured that.
00:36:47 If he's not gone by tomorrow, I'm calling the police.
00:38:42 He simply falls asleep.
00:40:39 which is crazy 'cause, if you knew me,
00:42:25 the answer is "no."
