• [Little person Tito is not happy with the dream sequence] 

  Tito : Why does my character have to be a dwarf?

  Nick : He doesn't have to be.

  Tito : Then why is he? Is that the only way you can make this a dream, to put a dwarf in it?

  Nick : No, Tito, I...

  Tito : Have you ever had a dream with a dwarf in it? Do you know anyone who's had a dream with a dwarf in it? No! I don't even have dreams with dwarves in them. The only place I've seen dwarves in dreams is in stupid movies like this! "Oh make it weird, put a dwarf in it!". Everyone will go "Woah, this must be a fuckin' dream, there's a fuckin' dwarf in it!". Well I'm sick of it! You can take this dream sequence and stick it up your ass!

• Nicole Springer : I feel like such an asshole.

  Nick : You're just saying that because you have Preparation-H on your face.

• Nick : Great! I freak in your dream, I freak out in my dream, no wonder I'm so fucking exhausted.

• [Tito doesn't laugh when he's supposed to] 

  Nick : Cut! Tito... Didn't feel like laughing, did ya?

  Tito : I did.

  Nick : Oh. Guess I missed it.

• Nick : Hey Bob, you think you can make any more noise with the dolly you creaky motherfucker !
