Quotes from Eli's Coming


"It's been my experience that men buy better cake than women. I find that women tend to get these yogurt frosted low-cal things laced with a rum and fruit concoction making cake into something you do to be polite. So that's why I was asking what kind of cake you're planning on getting to celebrate Isaac's return from vacation." -Casey
"Wow. I didn't know that you felt so strongly about it. But now that I do, I guess the answer is: whatever cake I damn please." -Dana
"Excellent." -Casey

"Chocolate cake. Chocolate filled, chocolate frosted, chocolate cake. I'm just saying." -Casey

"My girlfriend's ex-husband was in her office on a Saturday, and I'm fine." -Dan

"Okay." -Casey

"Maybe he stopped off." -Jeremy
"Where?" -Dana
"For a pretzel." -Jeremy
"I'm serious, he was supposed to..." -Dana
"The man's been in Europe for two weeks, he hasn't had a decent pretzel, maybe he stopped off and that's the cause for the delay." -Jeremy
"And how long does it take to buy a pretzel?" -Dana
"Well you've punctured a hole in my theory." -Jeremy

"What I meant was..." -Rebecca
"And due to a budget surplus, I can now offer you latte." -Dan
"Dan." -Rebecca
"But it's gonna look and taste an awful lot like the espresso and the cappuccino." -Dan

"What're you nuts? Are you just some... nutty, nut-girl who's nuts? There's a difference between divorced and separated. One is divorced and the other is separated. That's why they have those names. I never imagined that in a building populated by me, you, Casey, Dana, Natalie and Jeremy, Bobbi Bernstein would turn out to be the sanest person here!" -Dan

"Dana, whatever we're gonna do, can we not do it in front of the help." -Casey

"I want so badly to rip his face off." -Dana

"Listen, there's something I forgot to tell you before." -Dan
"What?" -Rebecca
"If you want to work on repairing your marriage, I will, in whatever way you want, support that." -Dan
"Really?" -Rebecca
"Yeah." -Dan
"Really." -Rebecca
"Really." -Dan
