Language:
Christian: "Shit. What the hell are you doing here? Did you follow us?"
Gina: "My lawyer informed me this afternoon that you denied my request for visitation. What the hell else am I supposed to do?...This is just like you. You're all about appearances. What, you think Wilbur's gonna be more comfortable with her because she's black?"
Christian: "Jesus Christ!"
Christian grabs Gina and pushes her toward the door. Gina breaks free and Gina dumps a plate of food in Michelle's lap.

Sean imagines himself as a ventriloquist with Christian as his dummy.
dummy Christian: "Face it, jerkface! It doesn't matter what you do. I'll always be sexier than you, better-looking and more charming. Now get your hand outta my ass!"
Sex:
Sean: "I think we have the original mold of the Kimber doll's vagina in storage. Now, I can get it and show you the sensitive areas."
Matt: "I know where her clitoris is, Dad."
Sean: "Sometimes straight vaginal intercourse won't be enough for her to reach full arousal. Have you tried digital or oral stimulation?"
Matt: "See, that's why she wanted to talk to Christian instead of you…he can tell me how to make her hot. You make me feel like I'm talking to Dr. Ruth. It's totally embarrassing."
Sean: "Okay, fine! You wanna make Kimber hot. I get it. She's a former porn star. You have to be assertive. Be a man! When she says she wants you to give it to her in the rear -- and believe me, Kimber will say that -- you tease her first with your tongue. She'll beg you to stick it in, but hold off. Wait until she writhes and screams, until she can't take it anymore. Only then do you give her what she wants. You pound her so hard she'll beg for mercy! The neighbors'll either move out or send you flowers. That's what I did with her! Um -- what I'd do."
Matt is crestfallen.
Matt: "If that's what you did with her, I can't imagine what Christian and Kimber did together."
Matt: "You and I are gonna make a porno. You said how you always had real orgasms on the set. That's why you're such a big seller. So we're gonna do one right here…we're gonna be watching it repeatedly, so I just wanted the quality to be fantastic."
Kimber's old sex film partner Lena enters the bedroom and greets Kimber. Lena laments the state of the porn industry.
Lena: "It's all gone to shit now, though. Nobody wants artistic porn anymore. All they want is this niche crap -- bondage, bukkake, bestiality."
Kimber: "Oh, doctor! I'm burning up. And you're the only gynecologist who'll make house calls."
Matt stands at the foot of the bed dressed as a doctor.
Matt: "Oh, my. Well then, we must take your temperature."
Matt pulls Kimber upright and positions her on all fours facing away from him. Matt pulls out a huge rectal thermometer and kisses it, then moves it downward.
Lena: "Don't block the money shot, Matt."
Kimber flinches as Matt withdraws the thermometer and looks at it.
Matt: "Oh, your fever's so high it's making me hot. Is your husband home?"
Kimber: "No, doctor. He's away doing boy's things. I need a real man who can take care of me."
Matt stands behind Kimber and undoes his pants. He moves against Kimber.
Matt (whispering): "He's right here."

Lena runs about, filming the scene.
Lena: "Oh that's right baby. Do it for mama!"
Christian: "Thought you'd cop a feel while she was under?...Jesus! You gotta be kidding me. You pull this crap every time your fragile little ego gets bruised."
Liz breaks up their argument.
Liz: "Boys, boys, boys. This is why God gave women two breasts. Now each of you take one and go play in your corner of the sandbox."

Michelle: "Give him back, goddamn you! He's innocent! He doesn't deserve to suffer!"
James: "Do any of us?...It seemed alright somehow to deprive you of the happiness I can't have. To make you taste the misery that has become my life. Misery! So powerful it can make you do things, things you never believed yourself capable of...You were right, what you said. There is nothing human left in me!"

You know, the most beautiful thing in the world I've ever seen is that glow you get after you've had an orgasm. And I want to see that again. And you're the one that can give it to her now...I'm gonna be there when it happens. I think it's only fair that I get to watch, don't you?"
Christian: "Watch? What makes you think either of us would agree to let you do that?"
Burt: "Well, I think I'm being very generous here…it's you two that's making it difficult. I'm just trying to make the most of a shitty situation."
