Joe Adler: I should fire all 3 of you. Cuz you laughed at me when I bought those bus stop bench ads. But this Step guy, he's the Holy Grail. See if both his balls had been knocked clean off, it'd be a good case, but not a great case. and with no balls, he's no man at all. The jury will never feel they can walk in the shoes of a ball-less neutered He-She freak. But Step! He's got one ball! Barely. But to a jury, he's still a man. And that man is hanging on by a thread. I'M TELLING YOU, THIS MAN IS A FUCKING POWERBALL. THIS GUY IS A... Oh hello. I'm Joe Adler.

-
Dean: You know, I'm starting to think this might have been a mistake.
Joel: Really?
Dean: Maybe it was my fault, you know?, maybe it was your fault.
Joel: No, it's yours.
Dean: A lot of blame to go around here. I think there are some people who just aren't meant to do drugs, *Joel*. I think you're one of those people, man.

Joel: Step, I don't want to tell you what to do, but I just want you to think about this, you know? If you go beyond the settlement, you continue with the lawsuit, you could bankrupt that company. And people are going to lose their jobs, a lot of people are gonna be pissed off at you, so...
Step: No, I ain't worried about that. I can kick anybody's ass at that whole company.
Joel: Yeah...
Phil: Well, I'm gonna kick somebody's ass if you don't close that screen door!
