Jason Mendoza : Listen, back in Jacksonville, I was in charge of a 60-person dance crew. Whenever we auditioned a new dancer, we would rate them in 5 categories: dancing ability, coolness, dopeness, freshness, and smart-brained. I would give you an eight in every category.
Tahani Al-Jamil : Eight isn't bad, I suppose.
Jason Mendoza : No, no. Eight is the best. It was a scale of one to thirteen, but eight was highest. The scale went up and back down, like a tent.
Tahani Al-Jamil : Why? It's not important.
Jason Mendoza : Lately, you've been really down on yourself, but you're the most amazing person I've ever met, besides Michael. And he was constantly torturing us, so I'd only rank him a ten.
Tahani Al-Jamil : Which is worse than an eight? That's so unnecessarily confusing.
Jason Mendoza : The point is, you're cool, dope, fresh, and smart-brained. Never seen you dance, but I bet you're good because you're good at everything. You're awesome. Be nicer to yourself.
Tahani Al-Jamil : Thank you, Jason.
[Hands him a glass of champagne]
Tahani Al-Jamil : From one eight to another.

Eleanor Shellstrop : Red alert. Red alert. We need help.
Tahani Al-Jamil : What's wrong with Michael?
Jason Mendoza : Uh-oh, I know that look. He just snorted a bunch of printer toner.

Tahani Al-Jamil : [in bed together] So, um, we should probably discuss...
Jason Mendoza : That was awesome!
Tahani Al-Jamil : It was.
[sighs]
Tahani Al-Jamil : Surprisingly so. But we should still discuss...
Jason Mendoza : Want some breakfast? I know how to make cereal.
Tahani Al-Jamil : Sure, but, Jason, we should...
Jason Mendoza : Okay, be right back.

Tahani Al-Jamil : This is so depressing. I'm being forced to throw a party that I know will fail.
Jason Mendoza : That's why you're doing this. It's what you're best at. Just like I'm the best at getting empty water bottles to stay on the roof of a Pizza Hut.

Michael : So that's their plan.
Jason Mendoza : This doesn't seem so bad.
Michael : Yeah, it really tugs my nuggets.

Tahani Al-Jamil : I'm leaving. I'm too miserable to stay here for one more second.
Jason Mendoza : Why? There are baby monkeys and dolphins to ride, and a game of Hungry Hungry Hippos with actual hippos. This party is way better than ours. Why are you miserable?
[realizing]
Jason Mendoza : Oh...
