About Last Night

Edit
Shared with you
  • Man in Joan's Apartment: [emerging from bedroom half-dressed] What's breakfast?
  • Joan: Egg McMuffin. Corner of Broadway and Belmont.
  • Debbie: Bullshit. You don't know what love is. You've gotten everything you have always wanted and now you're feeling sorry for yourself because there's something you want and you can't have it. But you had it! I gave you love. But you asked me to leave and I left.
  • Bernie: You know what Joan, if you didn't have a pussy there'd be a bounty on your head. You know that?
  • Joan: And you - are a psychopathic, schizophrenic, maladjusted social misfit who is clearly in the middle of a very deep homosexual panic.
  • Bernie: Yeah. Yeah, right. So you want to dance or what?
  • [Joan reads a story at Kindergarten]
  • Joan: 'And then an angel of the Lord, descended upon the Virgin Mary'
  • Kid #1: What's a virgin?
  • Joan: Eh? A virgin is someone who has never had sex.
  • Kid #2: What's sex?
  • Joan: Um, Sex - uh, sex is how men and women make babies.
  • Kid #3: Are you a virgin?
  • Joan: No.
  • Kid #3: So, you have a baby?
  • Joan: Eh, no. Men and women who don't want babies also have sex.
  • Kid #3: What for?
  • Joan: For about 10 or 15 minutes. 'And then an angel of the Lord... '
  • Bernie: Interesting broad. Where'd she develop her personality? A car crash?
  • Joan: So, did you have a nice evening?
  • Debbie: Yes. And I crawled away in shame.
  • Joan: Oh, aren't we a couple of sluts?
  • [Both giggle]
  • Debbie: I can't believe I slept with him on the first date!
  • Joan: It wasn't even a date, Deb.
  • Debbie: [rolls eyes] Thank you.
  • [pauses]
  • Debbie: I tell you, though. I couldn't help myself, because he is *so* gorgeous.
  • Joan: But can he type?
  • Bernie: I'm gonna let you guys do what you guys gotta do. Don't worry about me, I'm just gonna go home, make a little macaroni and cheese, seal the windows, and turn on the gas.
  • Bernie: Was that the chick from last night?
  • Danny: Yeah, I picked up the phone and she was already on the line.
  • Bernie: Yeah, right. Pull this leg and it plays jingle bells.
  • Joan: Tomorrow you know, they're going to come at me like marauding beasts bent on destruction.
  • Debbie: Stop it.
  • Joan: Deborah, you work in advertising... a civilized business. I on the other hand work with monsters.
  • Debbie: You're talking about 5 year olds!
  • Joan: Right! and my job is to break their spirit. That is what kindergarten is all about. The Germans invented it, think about it.
  • Pat: That 2nd baseman's got a really nice ass.
  • Joan: I refuse to go out with a man whose ass is smaller than mine.
  • Bernie: I stole it
  • Danny: You did not.
  • Bernie: Oh, that's great, Dan. I tell you I'm a thief and you call me a liar.
  • Bernie: You've got a lot of brass balls, you know that. I do all the work, you take all the credit. You know what your problem is? Your face.
  • Danny: Yeah, right.
  • Bernie: Come on, wise up, man, you're too good-looking. These girls go out with you and get nervous, man. They feel dumpy. They don't want to compete. They want a guy like - like me. You know, a guy that's gonna make *them* look good.
  • Danny: You're right. A basic Neanderthal type.
  • Bernie: Right! The swarthy type. A man's man. The kind of guy who oozes testosterone.
  • Bernie: Are you getting serious? Well, she seemed like a hell of a girl. From what little I saw of her. Not too this. Not too that. Very kind of, um, what?... Ah, what the fuck, I only saw her for a minute. First impressions of this kind can often be misleading. Does she give head?
  • Danny: What?
  • Bernie: To you, I'm saying. Does she give head to you?
  • [Silence]
  • Bernie: Forget it.
  • Bernie: What do you do?
  • Joan: Me?
  • Bernie: Well, yeah for a living?
  • Joan: I'm a neurosurgeon, you?
  • Bernie: I'm a prizefighter. Do you know much about boxing?
  • Joan: No...
  • Bernie: I'm the heavyweight champion of the world.
  • Danny: Hey, know one thing - I never screwed around on you.
  • Debbie: Oh, well, let's just give the boy a medal! I didn't realise it was such a sacrifice.
  • Bernie: You don't go here. You don't go there. You're about as much fun as a stick.
  • Joan: So, worried much about western civilization?
  • Danny: Not really. Not tonight.
  • Joan: It's collapsing, or hadn't you notice?
  • Danny: I live in a pretty good neighborhood.
  • Bernie: [Danny tells Bernie that he told Debbie he loves her] Ooohhhh! Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan!
  • [pauses]
  • Bernie: Who said it first?
  • Danny: I did.
  • Bernie: Ooohhhh! Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan!
  • [pauses]
  • Bernie: Was it before you came, or after?
  • Joan: Oh god, Pat's going in for the kill. Oh my! That was a nice turn.
  • Debbie: With just a hint of giddiness.
  • Joan: Her big move should be coming up any moment. The combination hair flip with a giggle.
  • Debbie: There is a 3.2 level of difficulty here. Joan let's see if she can pull it off.
  • Joan: This is it... this is it... Oh Yes!
  • Debbie: Oh Yes! Yes! Oh Bravo! Bravo! 9.0!
  • Danny: Yo, Gus. How about a refill?
  • Gus: Yo, Dan. You know where the coffee is.
  • Danny: I'm trying to impress my date.
  • Gus: Then you shouldn't have brought her here.
  • [repeated line]
  • Danny: Yo, Litgo!
  • Debbie: Fine. I'm gone. It's done. And you can go back to doing whatever you want to do, with whoever you want to do it, and whatever orifice you want to do it in.
  • Danny: [asking about Steve] Did you sleep with him?
  • Debbie: No, Dan, we were bowling partners.
  • [Danny makes fun of Joan when she comes in with a cake]
  • Danny: Joanie! God, she looks grea... Oh, and she baked us a pie!
  • Joan: Your vulgarian friend is downstairs, denting innocent people's fenders.
  • Danny: [shouts down the stair hallway] Yoooo, Litko!
  • Mr. Favio: You know what you are, Martin? You're a 14-carat fuck-up, that's what you are.
  • Danny: Something wrong?
  • Mr. Favio: Goddamn smartmouth. Jesus, you got a mouth! You think people like that mouth? You think customers like it? Mr Big Shot. How come you didn't cut off that dump on canal street?
  • Danny: The Swallow?
  • Mr. Favio: Awww, I say dump and he immediately connects with the Swallow! You know what a swallow is?
  • Danny: Oh let me guess, it's a bird?
  • Mr. Favio: Yeah it's a bird, a loser bird, a dodo!
  • Debbie: Look, you want me to make Bernie feel right at home? I'll serve him a fist full of white bread and a hunk of Velveeta. Okay?
  • Danny: Hey, he is a better person than that *bitch* on wheels you've got for a friend. You know, she's been trying to sabotage us from day 1.
  • Debbie: Oh, and Bernie's been really full of comfort and support. He hates my guts and I'm bustin' my ass, making a seven course meal for him.
  • Danny: Oh, you're not leavin' are ya?
  • Joan: No, we're walking in backwards.
  • Joan: Look, if he forgets to call one day, no big deal; two days, it's an oversight. Honey, he hasn't called you in three days; he's sleeping with somebody else.
  • Steve Carlson: I thought we had something kind of special.
  • Debbie: No, it was kind of sleazy. And now... it's kind of over.
  • Debbie: This is Joan, my roommate. She specializes in unsolicited attacks.
  • Debbie: Would you stop following me around. I don't want to have to start drinking in the suburbs.
  • Bernie: The best thing that could happen to you Danny, is an industrial accident.
  • [first lines]

  • [pumps a beer keg]
  • Danny: Anytime I can give you a hand.
  • Debbie: I'm finished. Just give yourself a hand.
  • Joan: I've been meaning to mention that it's really stupid to fuck your boss. I mean, for starters, it's a damn good way to lose your job.
  • Danny: You don't have to run off.
  • Debbie: Yes, I do. It's really - it's been a slice of heaven, alright. I - I just have to go home. It's - it's a habit of mine.
  • Joan: So, let me tell you about Gary. He's tall. He's nice to me. He's intelligent. And he doesn't make me sleep in the wet spot.
  • Debbie: Well, it's official. I've become my mother.
  • Debbie: I feel like a fire hydrant that's been pissed on.
  • Joan: Well, maybe it's job-related. I mean, the man does sell toilet paper for a living.
  • Danny: Hey, you leave here knowing one thing. I never fooled around. Not once!
  • Debbie: Well, let's just give the boy a medal. Forgive me! I didn't realize it was such a sacrifice!
  • Man in Joan's Apartment: [emerging from bedroom half-dressed] What's breakfast?
  • Joan: Egg McMuffin. Corner of Broadway and Belmont.
  • Joan: Oh, God! Another smoker! Look, do you mind?

  • [about a workshop on relationships]

  • Bernie: Ah, Mr Favio?
  • Bernie: Fuck you!
  • Danny: That's good! Now if you could find it in your heart, to take this thing and shove it up your ass.
  • Joan: Ah, that is very telling. On your instructions, I am supposed to rend and torture myself anally. Is that what your into? Does Deborah know about this?
