    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In the show, it is never mentioned what Patrick's job is. However, as Patrick is seen holding a miniature glass car, and because of his extensive knowledge about cars (which he displays in another episode), it is likely that he works for a car dealer.
    • Goofs
      As Patrick is leaving Sally's table, after the "code red", he puts his hand on a chair and a coat hanging there. The next time we see the chair, it's empty, without anyone moving or taking the coat.
    • Quotes

      Jane: You know the real way to tell if a man likes you? Have a drink with him, and if he puts his glass down really close to yours, that means he really likes you and something's definitely going to happen.

      Sally: You know, I think Patrick does that. I think he does that glass thing.

      Jane: Of course, as indicators go, an enormous erection's a bit more reliable.
