Episode Quotes

Alan Shore: Last night I went to bed with a book, not nearly as much fun as a 29 year old, but the book contained a speech by Adlai Stevenson. The year was 1952, he said 'The tragedy of our day is the climate of fear in which we live and fear breeds repression. Too often sinister threats to the Bill of Rights, to freedom of the mind, are concealed under the cloak of anti-Communism.' Today, it's the cloak of anti-Terrorism. Stevenson also remarked that it's far easier to fight for principles than to live up to them. I know we are all afraid, but the Bill of Rights, we have to live up to that, we simply must.
Denny Crane: Why Alan? That's all I'm gonna ask. Why?
Alan Shore: Some people see things as they are and ask why? Others see things as they never were and claim mad cow.

Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (factual errors): Scott asks Denise "When did they make a left turn on red legal in Massachusetts?" A left turn on red is legal in Massachusetts if you are turning onto a one-way street. In the scene no cars pass behind Scott and Denise in the opposite direction, so she should not have been pulled over.

Trivia

  • The episode is dedicated to Robert "Big Bob" Morris.
