Episode Quotes
Jake: So, what's going on? Anything exciting in your life that you maybe want to tell me about?
Doug Judy: I got a new job. I sit behind white CEOs when they have to testify before Congress, so they don't look so racist. Every 15 minutes I just whisper some nonsense at 'em.
[flashback:]
Doug Judy: The texture of quiche is unsettling.
[present:]
Doug Judy: I got paid $75,000 for that nonsense.
Jake: Okay, wait. I mean, obviously I love the premise and I think a reverse heist would make for a great movie and I already have the tag line, "This summer there are takebacks."
Doug Judy: Love that.
Jake: The poster would be you and me back-to-back with our arms crossed, but no, I'm not onboard with this. I'm a cop.
Doug Judy: And a cop's job is to prevent crime and that's what you'd be doing. Please, Jake. For me?
Jake: Okay, fine. 'Cause it's your bachelor party and only if I see them put back with my own eyes.
Doug Judy: Yes! Deal. Reverse heist, baby.
Jake: The Takeback. Coming this fall to HBO.
Doug Judy: It's a TV show now?
Jake: Well that's where all the best content is.
Charles: So in the end, it's more than a vending machine. It's a vending experience.
Amy: A vending experience that serves fried octopus balls?
Charles: It also serves eel balls and clam balls and... It's really just the three kinds of balls.
Amy: Oh, okay. On that horrifying note, Scully and Hitchcock, it's your turn.
Jake: All right, look, Judy, I know you're getting married.
Doug Judy: Damn it, I didn't think you'd find out about that. Who told you, Ronnie? Bobby? Ricky? Mike?
Jake: Don't try and change the subject by tricking me into singing New Edition with you.
Doug Judy: I don't know what you're talking about. Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky and Mike...
Both: [singing] If I like the girl who cares who you like
Doug Judy: Whoo!
Jake: What the hell was that? You almost blew my cover.
Doug Judy: Yeah, they're all suspicious now. You have to help us convince them that Jake's not a cop.
Trudy Judy: Why? I don't understand why you invited him. This was supposed to be a crazy weekend of boobs and butts.
Doug Judy: Trudy Judy, you're not gonna see boobs or butts this weekend.
Trudy Judy: I'll see butts if I wanna see butts.
