Joe: Watch it, Daphne!
Daphne: When I was a kid, Joe, I used to have a dream. I was locked up overnight in a pastry shop, and there was goodies all around. There was jelly rolls, and mocha eclairs, and sponge cake and Boston cream pie...
Joe: Look, Stoop...
Daphne: and cherry tart...
Joe: Stoop, listen to me! No butter, no pastry. We're on a diet!

Jerry: We could dye our hair.
Sig Poliakoff: And you gotta be girls.
Jerry: We could...
Joe: No, we couldn't!

Sugar: Been waiting long?
Junior (really Joe): It's not how long you wait, it's who you're waiting for!

Junior (Joe): Oh well, I guess some like it hot.
