Robin:
She just wasn't being honest.
Holly:
Well, I think it's a black thing too.
Elaine:
[more shocked] Jane is black?
Abe:
[mouth full of corn from his cob] Yes, Ma'am. She sure is.
Robin:
And you can't live a lie. You just can't.
Holly:
[glancing at Abe] Well, there's lying and then there's... just not telling. [Munching on his cob of corn, Abe glances up at her]
Robin:
Big diff.
Elaine:
She's a black Lesbian?
Abe:
[mouth full of corn from his cob] Yes, Ma'am. That is right.
Elaine:
[looking at Robin] And she was living here? With you?
Holly:
No, no, no no, no no. She was just living here. They weren't like fucking or anything. [Elaine gasps; Robin rolls her eyes. Abe laughs, nearly choking on his corn]

Jane:
...Do you miss it?
Robin:
What?
Jane:
Sex.
Robin:
Yeah, I do... You know what's weird? You never know the last time you sleep with somebody it's the last time. You're thinking: "Oh, we got problems, we got work to do," you know, but you never think... and then you break up and a month later you look back and you go: "Oh, that was it." That Tuesday or Friday or whenever, and you wished you paid attention because it was the last time... Well.

Robin:
But this person who dumped her, she was gay, right?
Holly:
Yeah, but even with gay girls there are no guarantees. They're very emotional. That's about all I know. They love uniforms and don't break their hearts.
Robin:
Uniforms?
Holly:
Oh, yeah, all kinds. Especially UPS.

Elaine:
I do the best I can, honey. I know it's not enough, and I'm sorry. But that's what you get in life, you know? You get whoever you end up with. Whoever is willing to stick by you, and fight for you, when everyone else is gone. And it ain't always who you expect. But you just have to make do.

Elaine:
[kindly] It's a cunt, dear. [nurse gasps]

Now why don't you leave us alone?
