- Asked how many times he has screenshotted this movie on his computer, like a Dr. Skin for Jason Segel, the reply is that it is Mr. Skin. — Bill Simmons
- A tangent asks what the startup site in Knocked Up was called, remembered as a Mr. Skin-style site; the first nomination is the pageant line, 'I think it's gonna be hard for her to enter the pageant without a face', and the club exchange spoken in initials, about not needing to put your P in a B right now, made one host laugh very hard.
- More nominations: 'God put our mouths on our heads for a reason', the breakup consolation 'It's like the Sopranos. It's over. Find a new show', and the line when he refuses to have sex because she broke his heart into a million pieces and his cock doesn't want to be around her anymore, because she is the goddamn devil, which one host calls the winner.
- Another host's favorite line, and the eventual answer, is 'Mutombo, out of the shot', from the sex scene with its 'Give me dirty crime scene, girl' and 'Andre the Giant, out of the shot, please'; the Christ-between-your-thighs-with-a-shorter-beard line is also loved and judged a definite ad lib.
- Other favorites: 'are those sad tissues or happy tissues', the blue-balls speech about a mid-blowjob interruption, and the 'he's like Gandhi but better, he likes puppets' line from the big guy; asked for the final answer, the hosts settle on the Mutombo line, with the Kunu exchange about Peter being the guy who works at Kaiser Permanente added afterwards.
