Quotes 

• Ben Chang : I'm Kevin. And you are?

  Jeff Winger : Not calling you Kevin.

  Ben Chang : Hi, not calling you Kevin. What are you having?

  Jeff Winger : None of this.

• Jeff Winger : Okay. The postman found Kevin here. He said he was soaking wet and smelled like fish. I know it's not a lot to go on...

  Annie Edison : Um, it's almost too much to go on. Look, Sullivan's trout farm is just 1/4 mile away. Who do you think you're dealing with, Winger?

  Troy Barnes : I don't know, Houlihan. Seems sort of thin.

  [On camera, filming the documentary] 

  Troy Barnes : In an investigation, one dude always has to go opposite the other dude. That's how they get things done.

  Jeff Winger : Well, you guys can work it out.

  Annie Edison : Yeah, we will.

  Troy Barnes : No, we won't.

• Jeff Winger : By trying to make Kevin a pariah, I accidentally became more Chang than Chang at his Changiest.

• Jeff Winger : I know Chang slipped up. He's not smart enough to play dumb all the time.

• Jeff Winger : We figure that out, we've got our smoking gun.

  Abed Nadir : And all thanks to Britta.

  Jeff Winger : Don't ruin this.

• Jeff Winger : Guys, did you hear? The history of ice cream class had another heart attack. Three more, and we're all in.

• Ben Chang : Jeff, thank you. When the dean told me you were going to help me, I couldn't believe it. A cool, smart lawyer like yourself reaching out to a little nobody like me?

  Jeff Winger : [smiles smugly]  I never told you I was a lawyer.

  Ben Chang : No, you didn't. Shirley said it, remember? You said, "You hired Chang?" And I said, "I'm Kevin, and you are?" And you said, "Not calling you Kevin," and I said, "Hi, not calling you Kevin. What are you having?" And you said, "None of this." And then Shirley said, "I don't care what he calls himself. He's a hard worker. We're all broken people, and we all deserve a second chance. Like how I gave Andre a second chance. Doesn't mean I forgot. I just forgave." And you said, "Chang didn't sleep with a stripper. He tried to k!ll us. Why does everyone keep forgetting all that?" And then Shirley said, "But he didn't. And you used to be a sleazy lawyer." Her words.

  Jeff Winger : Wow. That's quite a memory you have.

  Ben Chang : Well, my short term memory has actually improved. My doctor calls it a, um...

  [pulls up right shirt and sweater sleeves to expose Memento style writings on his arm, including Rent Memento] 

  Ben Chang : side effect.

  Jeff Winger : [cut to interview]  Oh. Well played, Chang. The chess match has begun.

• Abed Nadir : [reviewing 12 hours of Britta's unmonitored camera work, Chang dials phone]  Who's he calling?

  Jeff Winger : Good question. We figure that out, we've got our smoking gun.

  Abed Nadir : And all thanks to Britta.

  Jeff Winger : Don't ruin this.

• Abed Nadir : Hey, Jeff.

  Jeff Winger : What are you doing?

  Abed Nadir : Making a documentary on Changnesia.

  Jeff Winger : You gotta be bleep-king kidding me.

  Abed Nadir : Got it. Beautiful.

• Jeff Winger : I mean, all my friends believe this guy. What does it say about me that I don't?

  [...] 

  Jeff Winger : What does it say? It says I have gullible friends who will believe anybody, and I need to make that anybody me.
