- Nominees: 'put the bunny back in the box'; Cyrus's 'Define irony. A bunch of idiots dancing on a plane to a song by a band that died in a car crash'; and 'Sorry, boss. There's only two men I trust. One of them's me. The other's not you', which gets a vote because it sounds like something one of the hosts has said to another human being in his life.
- The host it was aimed at confirms having said that line to several people. — Shea Serrano
- Asked how many people he trusts and whether the questioner is one of them, the joke is that, like Cusack at the end of the movie, the questioner has been won over since they first met and is now one of the guys.
- Cyrus's 'it's not difficult to surmise how Nathan here feels about killing guards, and my own proclivities are well-known and often lamented facts of penal lore' is admired; his dialogue is really good, which makes it upsetting that Malkovich was upset during the shoot. There are some great quotes in this movie.
