• Bobby : Where are *you* goin'?

  Palm Apodaca : Alaska.

  Bobby : Alaska. What are you: on vacation?

  Terry : She wants to live there 'cause it's cleaner.

  Bobby : Cleaner. Cleaner than what?

  Palm Apodaca : You don't have to tell everybody about it. Pretty soon they'll all go there and it won't be so clean.

  Bobby : What makes you think it's cleaner?

  Palm Apodaca : I saw a picture of it. Alaska's very clean. It appeared to look very white to me. Don't you think?

  Bobby : Yep. That was before the big thaw.

  Palm Apodaca : Before the what?

• Palm Apodaca : You know, I read where they, uh, invented this car that runs on, ummm... that runs on, ummm... when you boil water?

  Terry : Steam.

  Palm Apodaca : Right, steam. A car that you could ride around in and not cause a stink. But do you know they will not even let us have it? Can you believe it? Why? Man! He likes to create a stink! I mean, I've seen filth that you wouldn't believe. Ugh! What a stink! I don't even want to talk about it.

  Terry : What do you mean, mass?

• Palm Apodaca : I have to come out and tell you the truth. You're not that clean either.

  Terry : Wait a minute. I'm not that neat maybe, but I am clean.

  Palm Apodaca : Well, you're not that bad.
