Episode Quotes
 
Stan: Well, date night was a rousing success. Me and my lady, eating steakes, drinking martinis, and I'm not too drunk or too full for sex. Too bad it's not sex night.
 
Leon: You got the money?!
Roger: You got the manners to say hello first?
Leon: Hello.
 
Roger: Well, that was about as obvious as the setup for the sequel at the end of Batman Begins.
Stan: What are you talking about?
Roger: You know, when Inspector Gordon gives him that Joker playing card.
Stan: No, what about Francine?
Roger: What about her?
Stan: You sounded like you were gonna say something important about Francine.
Roger: No. Don't think so.
Stan: Oh, okay.
(Long pause; Stan and Roger eat their cereal)
Roger: Oh, now I remember. Francine is fantasizing about the street racer you saw last night.
Stan: Why would she do that?
Roger: Why would who do that?
Stan: Francine! Street racers!
Roger: Oh, right, right. My mind, my mind's all drifty today. Uh, anyway, you're boring, and Francine's stuck on the street racer because he represents danger and thrills.
Stan: That's ridiculous. Francine doesn't think things she doesn't say. She's not a dog.
 
Stan: Francine, I've told you, sandwiches should be cut in triangles like a neatly folded flag. What am I supposed to do with this rectangular monstrosity?
Roger: Can't you just pretend it's an unfolded flag?
Stan: No!
Roger: God, you can be such a douche.
 
Francine: Stan!
Stan: That's 2 Fast 2 Furious! Which means you've already seen the first one! How else could you possibly follow the highly cerebral storyline?
 
Leon: Where's my money?
Stan: If you're smart, in U.S. Savings Bonds.
 
Hayley: I was so sick of Jeff, and now I can't stop thinking about him. I have to figure out a way to win him back from my stupid brother.
Klaus: Your brother is not the problem. The problem is Agathor. Kill him, and you'll get Jeff back.
Hayley: Oh, my God, you know how to kill him?
Klaus: The question isn't can I kill him. The question is, "Do you like me?"
Hayley: Not really.
Klaus: Oh. Anyway, I know how to defeat Steve.
 
 
Cultural References
 
Roger: Domino, bitch!

Roger's line is a reference to the movie Boyz n the Hood, where Ice Cube has a similar line.
 
Dungeons and Wagons

A spin on the game Dungeons and Dragons.
 
Hayley: Smile, you son of a...

The scene where Hayley kills the monster by blowing it up with the air tank after saying "Smile you son of a..." is similar to the end of the movie Jaws, where the character who blows up Jaws says the same line while blowing him up the same way.
 
Roger: I went all Nell and invented my own language.

Roger is talking about the movie Nell, in which Jodie Foster's character and her twin sister had their own language.
 
Fladnag and Zamfir

Fladnag, one of Steve's friend's character's names, is "Gandalf" backwards. Gandalf is the well-known Tolkien wizard character in the Lord of the Rings triology.

Zamfir is referring to Gheorge Zamfir, an artist who plays a Pan Flute much like Jeff's character.
 
Hayley: Rohtaga?

The idea of saying the enemies name backward being his weakness comes from Mr. Mxyzptlk, an enemy of Superman. The only way to kill him was by saying his name backward. Family Guy has also referenced Mr. Mxyzptlk.
 
Roger: Well, that was about as obvious as the setup for the sequel at the end of Batman Begins.
Stan: What are you talking about?
Roger: You know, when Inspector Gordon gives him that Joker playing card.

Roger is obviously referring to the movie Batman Begins. The ending he described was the actual ending of the movie.
 
Stan: That's 2 Fast 2 Furious! Which means you've already seen the first one! How else could you possibly follow the highly cerebral storyline?

2 Fast 2 Furious is a real movie about a gang of drag racers.
