- Let's watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre!
- I tried a Dorito for the first time last night. It wasn't cheese. It was... cheese adjacent, but not cheese. It was really good!
Dialogue
- Claire: : Michelle, if you can't give me a raise, I can't continue to work here.
- Michelle Darnell: Well, look who finally showed up to my seminar. About time, Claire, I love it. I didn't know you were listening all these years. What am I always saying?
- Tito: Don't go in that room!
- Michelle Darnell: True. I do say that, but I also say, you want something, you gotta take it. Claire, you just took it and you grew a pair in the process.
- Claire: I'm holding your earrings?
- Michelle Darnell: You're holding a pair of earrings, as in 2001, I paid $ 62,000 for it, and that's your raise now, it's a good raise and you earned it.
- Claire: Thank you.
- Tito: Congratulations on your balls, Claire!
- Claire: Knocking on the bathroom door, while Michelle is in the bathroom] Michelle, you gotta get out of the bathroom. I'm already late for work and Rachel's gonna be late for school.
- Michelle Darnell: [inside the bathroom] Well, I'm going as fast as I can. You're welcome to come in.
- Claire: [opens the door to find Michelle applying self-tanning spray] Fine, but we gotta get on the schedule if you're gonna be here. Oh, my God! Close your robe!
- Michelle Darnell: No, absolutely not! I'm self-tanning and my legs are still wet.
- Claire: I can see your vagina.
- Michelle Darnell: Well, congratulations and you're welcome. You know, I had it rejuvenated in 2010. They called it a vaguvenation. You know, it's like a soft silk coin purse. [whispers] I can barely urinate.
- Claire: [still in shock] Oh, my God.
- Michelle Darnell: Now, do me a favor and tell me if I have any streaks on my hamstrings. [turns around, bends over and lifts up her robe as Rachel comes into the bathroom]
- Claire: Oh, my God! Put it away!
- Michelle Darnell: Huh?!
- Claire': Put it away!
- Rachel: [shows up] Whoa!
- Michelle Darnell: [turns around] Hi, Racquel.
- Rachel: [correcting herself] It's Rachel!
- Claire: Go grab your backpack, honey. We don't need to brush our teeth today. Our teeth are fine. [Rachel leaves the room, as Michelle goes back to spraying her leg with self-tanning spray] You need to wipe some of that off your face. You know, it dries darker.
- Michelle Darnell: No. Does it? [grabs the bottle]
- Claire: Yes.
- Michelle Darnell: That's not what the bottle says. [wipes her face with a bath towel] Oh. Oh, it's okay. It's coming off like a dream on your towel.
