• Marie Barone : Listen, it's none of my business but I think maybe this might be Debra's way of trying to compensate.

  Robert Barone : How so, Ma?

  Marie Barone : Well, if you can't cook in the kitchen.

  Ray Barone : Okay, goodbye.

  Robert Barone : You guys are *way* off. Here.

  [He hands the brochure to Frank] 

  Ray Barone : What are you?...

  Frank Barone : Holy crap!

  Robert Barone : That's Debra's aerobics instructor. She watches him flex all around and then she goes home all... inspired.

  Ray Barone : Why do you do that? Why do you tell Mom and Dad things like that? Huh? My personal things? Why? Why, why? Why?

  Robert Barone : Brings us closer.

• Ray Barone : Hey.

  Robert Barone : Hey.

  [Ray notices that Robert is standing in the kitchen only wearing his police shirt] 

  Robert Barone : How long is the mirror in your apartment?

  Robert Barone : Ma is sewing up my uniform. Left pant leg got all shredded on a call. These damn people with raccoons as pets. Never works out.

  Ray Barone : So what's going on with you?

  Robert Barone : No, you know, nothing.

  Ray Barone : Listen, Robert.

  Robert Barone : Yeah.

  Ray Barone : Do you ever... do you ever have a hamburger, and the whole time you're eating it, you're imagining it's a steak?

  Robert Barone : I have. Yes, I have.

  [Ray gives Robert the Aerobics pamphlet] 

  Robert Barone : Who's this?

  Ray Barone : That's the steak.

  Robert Barone : What?

  Ray Barone : I think this guy is the reason that I'm having more sex.

  Robert Barone : Look, before we go any further, I'd like to put my pants on.

• Frank Barone : Sounds like Mr. Muscle here is saving you some prep work.

  Marie Barone : I don't like that, Frank. And I have to say Raymond, I think that Debra is playing a very dangerous game.

  Frank Barone : Oh, what are you talking about? Who cares where she gets her appetite as long as she has her meal at home?

  Ray Barone : Okay, stop!

  Marie Barone : Raymond.

  Ray Barone : Stop!

  Marie Barone : Raymond, you have to get Debra out of this class right now.

  Frank Barone : Why? This guy is helping out. Maybe Ray doesn't have what it takes to get Debra's motor running.

  Marie Barone : Raymond's got plenty!

  Ray Barone : Thank you! Mom!

• Ray Barone : I guess I'm not aerobically gifted.

  Debra Barone : That's okay, a lot of people break the boombox on their first time out.

  Ray Barone : Yeah, that's funny. You wanna have sex?

  Debra Barone : What?

  Ray Barone : Yeah. I mean, the kids aren't home and the honeymoon suite is vacant.

  Debra Barone : Oh! No, not right now.

  Ray Barone : Why?

  Debra Barone : Um, you know, I'm just not really in the mood right now.

  Ray Barone : Why, 'cause you missed the class?

  Debra Barone : Missed the class? No, I'm just, you know, not in the mood.

  Ray Barone : Why?

  Debra Barone : What, are you seven? How many times are you gonna ask me why?

  Ray Barone : Just until you really tell me why.

  Debra Barone : Okay, because the kids are gonna be home any minute, I have a sink full of dishes and I why do I have to explain it? I'm just not in the mood!

  [Ray pulls out the pamphlet and holds in front of his face] 

  Ray Barone : How about now? Yeah. Huh? What? Are you in the mood now, huh? Huh?

  [He mimics aerobics movements] 

  Ray Barone : Kick, one two, kick, one two. Kick, one two. I'm a maniac, maniac.

  Debra Barone : Ah, now I'm in the mood

• Ray Barone : Every time you go to the class you're getting all turned on by Hunky Joe, right? And you come home to me to put out the fire.

  Debra Barone : Are you out of your mind?

  Ray Barone : [Imitating Nick, the Aerobics instructor]  Looking good, Debra. Looking good.

  Debra Barone : What, so you're getting all paranoid because we had a little extra sex last week?

  Ray Barone : Three times! Three times, right? You don't think that's out of the ordinary? I'm surprised it wasn't on the news.

  Debra Barone : So you think I'm cheating on you with you?

  Ray Barone : Put it however you want. You know what you're doing.

  Debra Barone : You know what? I'm tired. Could you just call yourself an idiot?

  Ray Barone : Yeah. You know I'm right, right? How would you like it if I did that to you?

  Debra Barone : Oh, please! What about every year when that stupid swimsuit issue arrives? I know I'm not gonna be getting much sleep that night. Why is that, Ray?

  Ray Barone : That's not true. That's not true. Don't try to make that like this.

  Debra Barone : What about the naked channel that you're always trying to check to see if they forgot to scramble it?

  Ray Barone : That's... I'm not checking it!

  Debra Barone : Oh no?

  Ray Barone : It's on the way to the Travel Channel.

  Debra Barone : Who's the one in the bedroom with all the little character suggestions, huh? "I'm the stock-boy and you can't reach the sauce. " Or "Ooh, come to bed with a limp. "

  Ray Barone : Look, that isn't the same, all right? You can't compare that.

  Debra Barone : Why is that?

  Ray Barone : Because none of those things are real, okay? They're all make-believe, they're games! This guy is real! He's flesh and blood and sweat and muscles, okay? And I don't like it! I don't like it!

  [Ray crumples up the pamphlet and throws it away and kicks the trashcan] 

  Debra Barone : Ray, did it ever occur to you that taking aerobics classes makes me feel better about myself? Yeah, so if I feel better about myself, I feel better about a lot of other things too.

  Ray Barone : Yeah, but that guy...

  Debra Barone : That guy teaches class, that's all.

  Ray Barone : That's all?

  Debra Barone : That's it. You know, I've seen good-looking men before.

  Ray Barone : Where?

  Debra Barone : All you ever do is complain about how little sex we have, and last week we had more than enough and all it did was make you suspicious.

  Ray Barone : I don't know. I'm an idiot, I guess.

  Debra Barone : My idiot.
