"If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it"; "It's not White Boy Day, is it?"; "don't condescend me man"; "I'm not a whore. I'm a call girl. There's a difference"; "I'm the Antichrist. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood"

- Nominations: 'don't condescend me man', Drexel's crude line comparing himself to a woman's body, 'he must have thought it was white boy day', the gun line, 'she tastes like a peach'; the gun line is liked as a senior yearbook line for the high school students out there, and it is replayed with Clarence telling Richard that Lee Donowitz is not a pimp, credited to Clarence Worley, 1993.
- 'It's not White Boy Day, is it?' is what Zach Mack, one of the producers, immediately emailed when the episode was announced, perhaps because three white boys are talking about this movie; 'fell off the ugly tree and hit every branch' was considered, but the film may not have created it since a stepfather said it in the eighties.
- A lot of what Tarantino wrote here entered the culture: 'I'm not a whore. I'm a call girl. There's a difference'; 'When I'm with somebody, I'm 100%'; the minor and major importance line about believing her; Walken's character's Antichrist and vendetta lines and the 'angels in heaven' speech; Sizemore's appreciation of Clarence, 'I like this boy'; and Marty's (as transcribed) 'Motherfucking Charlie Bronson. Mr. Majestic.'
