"Well, I guess we can add five more bucks to your tab." "Five dollars?" "For Barbra Does Céline?" "No!" "Oh, no." "Ridiculous." "No, $499." "Streisand comes expensive or she doesn't come at all." "Forget it!" "I wouldn't pay that much to see Barbra do Céline!" "Or would I?" "Maybe if I was in the room with them, peeking from behind the curtain... and they didn't know I was there." "How would it appear on my credit card bill?" "No, no, Stan, focus." "Here's the deal." "You and I both know I'm gonna get that pay-per-view code one way or another."

"Maybe" " Maybe I'm not a great vocal coach." " God, could that be?" " No, Dad, it's me." "I just need to sing harder." "No." "It's more than that." "There's something missing." "Something empty and soulless about your performance." " Hmm." " That's it." "See, Steve, the national anthem is about war." "And you'll never be able to sing it until you've been to war." "Can you expand on that idea?" "Certainly." "Take the song "Love in an Elevator."" "The reason it's so good... is because Steven Tyler actually lived in an elevator the summer he wrote it."
