Rob: That one...that one, not as much as the others. [Another discussion about something they're not sure whether they should talk about. They elect not to. Don't worry -- it doesn't sound like anything you would knock yourself out to hear.]
Miss Alli: Hmm. Oh, boy, this is a good question I have here. Do you think you would have moved even faster if you had had matching outfits? [they laugh] I shoulda cut that one out, huh?
Rob: I'll tell you, I don't know how the Guidos got all that stuff in those backpacks, it's just really amazing.
Miss Alli: What...the...
Brennan: It was just the bottomless...what did we call it? The Pocket Universe.
Rob: Yeah. They've got a Pocket Universe in their backpacks.

I was embarrassed to be on the flight to Newark, because I was afraid the person sitting next to me was gonna think, "Who the hell is this guy, and why does he smell so bad?"
