[edit] Dr. Benjamin Stone
- Beverly Hills. The most beautiful woman in the world. Plastic surgery. What do those three things have in common? Me, in less than a week.
- I don't need a car. I'm moving to Los Angeles. Why would I need a car?
- [about being stuck in Grady] I'm trapped in this HeeHaw Hell.
[edit] Vialula
- [to Benjamin, after skinny-dipping in the lake] You can blink now.
- Can't poop in this town without everybody knowin' what color it is.
[edit] Others
- Nurse Packer: [reading from a note left by Doc Hogue] "When to call me, you've been stabbed, shot, poisoned, separated from an appendage, knocked or beaten unconscious, run over by a tractor mower, or generally about to bleed to death. Otherwise, leave me alone."
- Dr. Aurelius Hogue: [while being examined] Check Hollywood for knives. I don't want him operating in case I sneeze or something.
- Tommy: At the risk of sounding schmaltzy, I just want to tell you that you're a schmuck. And I hope I never see you again.
- Nancy Lee: I read somewhere that doctors have the highest suicide rate in any profession except for dentistry.
[edit] Dialogue
- Vialula: I suspect your version of romance is whatever will separate me from my panties.
- Dr. Stone: No, I am just talking about dinner. Wear make-up, put on a dress. Panties are optional.
- Nancy Lee: Is that a star?
- Hank: No, that's Ted Danson.
- Dr. Stone: You want to trade, the pig for the part?
- Melvin: If you can part with the pig.
- Dr. Stone: Good.
- Hank: [about Los Angeles] I heard the women out there have their chests enlarged, their thighs vacuumed, and barf on purpose.
- Lillian: [hits Hank in the back of the head] Not while people are eating.
- Dr. Stone: [while dancing] The music's stopped.
- Vialulu: What music?
- Woman with Glasses: There's a blurred spot in my vision... there... no, there, no, no...
- [Dr. Stone takes her glasses and cleans them]
- Woman with Glasses: I'm cured.
- [after Dr. Stone asks about how everyone is in Grady]
- Nancy Lee: Why don't ask me about Vialula?
- Dr. Stone: Well, she and Hank are probably...
- Hank: You're in my chair.
- [Ben looks up at Hank]
- Hank: Slide a bit, Nancy Lee. [sits down] There is a man in the toilet sellin' after shave. Now, what's that all about?
- Vialula: I'm going for breakfast, you want anything?
- Nurse Packer: Mmm-hmmm, how about Bob Barker?
- Vialula: [snorts] I'll see what I can do.
