Quotes

Terry: Annie set the alarm this morning, which is a totally unhealthy way to wake up. So from 8:00 to 11:00, I fall straight back into a REM sleep, and then, bam! Every nine minutes, I'm back up.
Owen: [sarcastic] Yeah, I hate it when I can't REM sleep through to 11:00.
Joe Tranelli: Who are you kidding, anyway? You're up every nine minutes going "I'm sleeping with a 25 year old!". You're high-fiving your penis.
