- Anna Ran: [incredulous] The cookbook?
- Anna Ran: Mr. Heep is here. He has a friend. She's beautiful. She's not feeling too well...
- [makes a drinking motion]
- Anna Ran: So she's lying down in my room.
- Vick: Why is she here? Why isn't she at his place?
- Anna Ran: Well, she got sick in the stairwell downstairs. She is wearing no clothes under his shirt. Blim-blam. Mr. Heep is a player.
- Vick: Mr. Heep, I KNOW I sent in that form. I gave it to you on the stairs... My sister's all angry at me now.
- Cleveland Heep: Well, i'll check again... By the way, this is my friend, Story.
- Vick: ...hi
- Story: [Looks up, then looks down shyly]
- Cleveland Heep: [watches out of the corner of his eye] Uhh, yep, you were right, here it is.
- Vick: ...Great.
- Cleveland Heep: You alright? You look a little...
- Vick: I'm feeling a little funny, it's nothing.
- Cleveland Heep: [looks at Story] Is it a pins-and-needles kind of feeling?
- Vick: Kind of... Yeah.
- Cleveland Heep: Maybe you should go lie down.
- Vick: [to Story] Nice meeting you.
- Story: I'm so very happy we saw each other.
- Vick: Change doesn't happen the way you say it's gonna happen, without dramatic events that accelerate thinking. I wrote this thing. It might take decades or longer to create a reaction before it anchors in the consciousness.
