  • Lisa: Matty, what am I doing? I caught myself. Don't judge anybody else until you check yourself out that way you are lucky if it's your fault because then you can correct the situation. I'm nervous over something that is going on with me, and I ended up with an attractive guy who you would have to be an idiot to mistake for anything more than just a fun friendship, and... and, yes amazing sex, and then I give that guy a hard time for just being who he is. Totally my fault, I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
  • Matty: Are you apologizing?
  • Lisa: Yeah.
  • Matty: If you are really apologizing, you may be my dream girl. I heard those footsteps and I'm like, right somebody nuts is coming back to be more nuts and now an apology, you might be my dream girl.
  • Matty: I think I screwed up.
  • George: Not from my perspective.
  • Matty: I screw up, that's why I wrote something out that I wanna... I wanna say to you. OK this will be good. Is it bad that I wrote it out?
  • Lisa: Its unusual, it's not bad. Stop asking me things like that it's weird.
  • Matty: Oh yeah sorry, I went nuts when you left, I broke a lamp!
  • Lisa: OK, read me the thing.
  • Matty: That was the thing!
  • Matty: Let me ask you something, how do you know when you're in love?
  • Bullpen Pitcher: Well...
  • Matty: What?
  • Bullpen Pitcher: I've got a way, whenever this one thing happens I know I'm done. I will tell you but its personal and I don't want anybody making fun of me for it.
  • Matty: No, no-ones going to... just go!
  • Bullpen Pitcher: I think I'm in love with somebody when I wear a condom with the other girls, OK?
  • Matty: Holy shit I'm in love.
  • Lisa: George, this is my boyfriend Matty.
  • George: Nice to meet you.
  • Matty: Who is he?
  • Lisa: You didn't even say hello!
  • Matty: Yeah, I think you ought to check with me before you invite some guy over, so I'm a little bit too pissed off to say hello!
  • Lisa: OK, then this is what I need, if in the middle of the night I start crying, shaking or getting enormously upset I don't want you to ask me what's wrong, I just want you to ignore it. Is that OK with you?
  • Matty: Actually that's my preference!
  • Matty: I get a little afraid that you're missing my confidence here.
