in

Tom:	We'll take your word for this; we swear!

and the major question of every intelligent well educated
college student is, 

Crow:	Are we there yet?
Tom:	And this is supposed to be _helping_ me?

"Is this the party?"  Weird aliens are commonplace, the
bizarre becomes the norm 
	
Tom and Crow:	NORM!
Tom:	How's the world treating you, Mr. Peterson?
Mike:	Woody, all I know is that you're too stupid to change.

and it's all a teenager can do to keep from being
kidnapped. Why? Well, that's complicated.

MANDY and
SAM.

Mike:	I hope that's enough emphasis.  Do you think there should have 
been 
a bit more?
Crow:	Nah.  I think we all had the point at emphasis.
