- [Johnny, in the control booth with Les, is on the phone with a fan who has called into the station, the call which Johnny has placed on speaker so that Les can hear]
- Dr. Johnny Fever: What's your name?
- Darlene: My name's Darlene...
- Dr. Johnny Fever: Hi.
- Darlene: ...and I just wanted to call and tell you that I you're the *sexiest* man in Cincinnati radio.
- Dr. Johnny Fever: Well, thank you very much, Darlene, and allow me to compliment you on your obvious sense of taste.
- Darlene: You know, I've often had fantasies about you.
- Dr. Johnny Fever: Is that so. Tell you what, Darlene, I got a couple of minutes here. Why don't you just run down a few of those fantasies for me.
- Les Nessman: [in overhearing the conversation, at which he has often grimaced] I think that's disgusting!
- Darlene: [to Johnny] Who's that?
- Dr. Johnny Fever: Oh, don't be upset, sweetheart, it's just Les Nessman, the newsman.
- Darlene: Wait a minute. You mean this isn't Les Nessman I'm talking to?
- Les Nessman: [in Johnny handing him the phone receiver] Oooo.
- Les Nessman: [excitedly on the phone with a big grin on his face] Les Nessman here.
- Darlene: Oooo.
- Les Nessman: [entering uncertainly] Jennifer, excuse me, do you have a moment?
- Jennifer Marlowe: Sure.
- Les Nessman: Herb said I should talk to you. He said you're an expert at getting rid of people.
- Jennifer Marlowe: [smiles] Well, certain people.
- Herb Tarlek: [very condescending] No, Les. Uh, the reason people don't like you is twofold. Now, firstly...
- Bailey Quarters: [entering] Hello, Les.
- [chuckles]
- Les Nessman: Oh, hi, Bailey.
- Bailey Quarters: I, uh, understand you had an obscene phone call this morning.
- Les Nessman: Yeah.
- [chuckles]
- Herb Tarlek: [incredulously] What?
- Les Nessman: A lady called me, Herb.
- Bailey Quarters: Uh-uh. A fan called. An ardent fan.
- [Les giggles and walks away]
- Bailey Quarters: It seems she has a thing... for Les.
- Herb Tarlek: [scoffs] Get out of town!
- Bailey Quarters: You get out of town! Hey, Les!
- [playful mock salute]
- Bailey Quarters: Keep on trucking!
- [giggles]
- Les Nessman: [smiles] Thank you. I'll do my best!
- Arthur Carlson: Little bit late, aren't you, Nessman?
- Les Nessman: [singing Johnny Mathis song] Chances are... Oh, gee, am I?
- [chuckles]
- Les Nessman: I didn't notice. The time must have just slipped away from me.
- [chuckles merrily]
- Andy Travis: [big smile] Did you have fun, Les?
- Les Nessman: [much chuckling, nods the whole time] Yes, Andrew, I did!
- Herb Tarlek: Yeah, I suppose you're gonna tell us that you... hit the jackpot, right?
- Les Nessman: Please, Herb, I'm not the sort to kiss and tell.
- Arthur Carlson: Kiss what and tell whom?
- Herb Tarlek: Les has a groupie, Big Guy.
- Arthur Carlson: What's that?
- Herb Tarlek: A groupie is a listener who likes to do a lot more than just
- [raises his eyebrows]
- Herb Tarlek: listen.
- Arthur Carlson: My goodness!
