- Woody Boyd: [the telephone at the bar rings and Woody picks it up] Cheers.
- [pauses to listen]
- Woody Boyd: Yes ma'am, right away.
- Woody Boyd: [to Carla] There's some lady screaming her head off.
- Carla Tortelli: What she want?
- Woody Boyd: I don't know. All I can make out was two-timing.
- Carla Tortelli: [yells] Sam. Telephone.
- Carla Tortelli: Woody, listen up and learn something.
- Sam Malone: [Woody hands the telephone to Sam] Sammy here.
- Sam Malone: Oh, hey, I thought you'd like those flowers.
- Sam Malone: Yeah, no, no, that sounds like my note, "Thanks for a wonderful evening Barbara, I had a great time."
- Sam Malone: Well of course I know your name's Karen.
- Sam Malone: Ah, you know, I see your mistake here. You see, you didn't realize that to me Barbara means Karen.
- Sam Malone: Well, because, because, ah, because Barbara reminds me of Barbra Streisand, and you know that song about people.
- Sam Malone: Well, I am getting to it. Um, you know the line "first be a person who needs people"? Well, who was the first person?
- Sam Malone: Well, all right, no, no, the first female person was Eve. And who's the most famous Eve of all but Christmas Eve, right?
- Sam Malone: Yeah, what do you do on Christmas Eve but you go carolin', right?
- Sam Malone: No, I know, I know your name's not Caroline. But after you go carolin', what you do is you 'karen' in the gifts.
- Sam Malone: Yeah, yeah, well, apology accepted, sweetheart. Talk to you in a bit.
- Diane Chambers: Sam, look at all the people who've fallen hopelessly in love with me with only the slightest encouragement: you, Frasier...
- Sam Malone: Yourself.
