  Mick : I'm telling you, those men they were - They were going to kill us. They were going to kill us, and if it weren't for Tom... He's a hero.

• [Mick the diner chef tells Tom and Pat about the craziest girl he ever slept with] 

  Mick : Yeah. She used to have these crazy goddamn dreams where instead of her boyfriend, I was some kind of demented killer. I woke up one night, she stuck a goddamn fork in my shoulder.

  Tom Stall : You're kidding me.

  Mick : Nope. I'm spurting blood. She's sitting there crying, going, 'Baby, I love you, I love you.'

  Tom Stall : [Pat laughs]  So, what happened? You broke up with her, right?

  Mick : No, I married her.

  Mick : [Pat continues to laugh]  Hey, it lasted 6 years. Nobody's perfect, Tom.

  Tom Stall : I guess not.
