• [Bertie and Joe start slow dancing to the Rolling Stones' "Moonlight Mile"] 

  Joe Nast : What did I do?

  Bertie : You played my song.

• Bertie : [addressing Ben and Jo-Jo]  We've never actually met. I'm your route manager. I helped Joe here do some bin diving, dig up your invites. Really excellent paper selection.

  [pause] 

  Bertie : I... I'm sorry we couldn't complete the postal cycle for you.

• Joe Nast : [at the post office]  I think you have some mail here.

  Bertie : You think?

• Bertie : You think if you just run around fast enough, figure out what everyone wants, no one's gonna notice what a coward you are? Are you that scared? - You sleep in that house, eat their food... you act like everyday's just another Sunday

  [pause] 

  Bertie : you think if you just keep it up, these people won't notice their daughter's missing?

  Joe Nast : What are we doing that's so different? - Lend a hand, Bertie! There's not a body in that bar that thinks Cal McGinnis is ever coming home!

  [pause] 

  Joe Nast : You think I don't know that you're never gonna make room in your life for someone who want's to know you better than 60 lousy percent?

  [pause] 

  Joe Nast : It's the last 40 that counts!

  Bertie : [whisper's]  Where'd you go, Joe?

  [walks out, slamming door behind her] 

  Joe Nast : [whisper's to himself]  I'm... right here.

• Bertie : So, did you come back for that drink?

  Joe Nast : [chuckles]  No, the dancing, actually.

• Bertie : Oh shit, I gotta pee!

• Bertie : So, commercial real-estate?

  Joe Nast : Commercial real-estate.

  Bertie : What the hell does that mean?

  Joe Nast : [laughing]  I have no idea.

  Bertie : And this is what you want to do?

  Joe Nast : Not really.

  Bertie : Oh, and what do you want to do?

  Joe Nast : I want to figure out what I want to do.

  Bertie : So you're kind of in "Escrow" at the moment?... real-estate term.

  Joe Nast : Yeah, I recognized that one

  [chuckles] 

• Joe Nast : What did I do?

  Bertie : You played this song.

• Bertie : Sorry, we could not complete the postal cycle.

• Bertie : So, did you ever see that "Lucy" episode where she's in this big vat stomping grapes, making wine?... I feel like that everytime I cimb in. I pretend I'm in Italy

  [Bertie and Joe get into the mail bin] 

  Bertie : ... feeling Italian?

  Joe Nast : Uh - no, not just yet.

  Bertie : Give it a sec.

• Joe Nast : That song at the bar, that was your's?

  Bertie : He never actually heard it... but

  Joe Nast : ...But he knew you pretty well?

  Bertie : About 60%
