Quotes

• Chett: See that set of curves over there? She wants me. She needs me. She broke into my house just to be near me. Yep. She's crazy about me... Or maybe she's just crazy - you know, one of those Black Widow ladies who pick some schmo out of the blue and lures them into her web with that sweet smile. Then (makes sucking sounds) Next thing you know, she's feeding on your carcass and you never saw it coming!

Lisa: Michael.

Chett: Coming, sweet-ums.
