"when you hire a party down catering team?" "At Party Down,we have a simple motto:" "It's your party and you deserve to enjoy it, but how are you going to enjoy the party if you're worried about whether the shrimp cocktail's been sitting out too long or if there's enough ice or do the guests think the party's lame," "or are people stealing stuff,or going through the medicine cabinets because they're nosy or because they might find something that'll give'em a rockin' buzz." "I used to do that last thing,not anymore." "Clean and sober." "Um wow,that that is quite a motto,mr... donald." "Ron donald." "Ron donald,nice to meet you." "Hey okay no,no,no- why do they do these things so tight?" "Okay no,no,no." "Look at this." "Clean stick." "There will be no frowns today." "Okay leave the frowning to us." "Hey that should be part of our motto,what do you think?" "Mr. Donald,you are... efficient." "It seems like you've got your client feedback card already written!" "Okay people,eyes forward, we've got a lot to cover." "Chill,buzz kill!" " You ain't my moms." " They'll tear you a new one,t- okay people eyes forward." " Think I ain't privy to that info?" " Privy." "Privy to that info." "That's why they call it the palisades,bro- okay,kyle you really have to come into that moment." "You know what gene hackman said to me." "When we were shooting "lucky lady?" " He said you should be committed-" - constance!" "He got a callback on the palisades." "Ron,we're running the scene oh hey well,instead of running the scene how about we run some bruchetta." "Is that... okay uh- next thing the racial sensitivity seminar." "I took it you guys should take it," "I learned things that blew my mind." "Yeah like what?" ""Mexican. " Not offensive- constance, what are you- what did- what did I say?" "It's their cheese,not our cheese- right,so the guest run out of cheese- how are you going to feel about that?" "Terrible." "Right,so,spit it out." "Last thing,guys,your gonna love this, hostess said we could put out the tip jar tonight  oh come on." " I know what you're going to say- yeah,let's take the guaranteed twenty." "Or,why don't we bet on ourselves?" "Bet on success!" "Because we always lose." "Uh and maybe we should try harder,how about that?" "Try harder." "Hey,there he is." "Henry pollard,everybody,huh." "Hey okay,come on." "Yeah henry and I use to sling devours,back in the day." "Remember that?" "Before he left to be a big star." "But now he's back!" "Where's your shirt?" " I'm sorry." " Your shirt?" "Where's your shirt?" "Yeah,yeah,they said white shirt- yeah,so a crisp white shirt." "Crisp,crisp." "It looks like you've sleeping in that thing?" "In a forest?"

" Vaguely- - well,now I have a dream," "I'm gonna run my own soup r' crackers franchise." "What?" "The all you can eat salad place?" "And soup,they're known for there soup." "They have salads but they're known for their soup." "I was talking to allen,mr." "Duck about it." "Owner of party down,he said if I make good as team leader, that ah,he'll go partners with me- god you're just destroying the limes." "Don't touch anything." "Watch a pro,okay here we go."

"I will call you back." "Personal business on company time." "Which is what?" " Heartily encouraged?" " Forbidden and you're late." "For the second time." "So that's your final warning." "Who's this?" "What happened to sage?" "Oh uh- sage was caught doing that thing, so he's been let go." "This is henry pollard." " Our new team member." " So I just wanna be clear, sage got five warnings for masturbating in closets?" " Why do we have to say the word?" " And I'm on last warning already even though I've only been late two times?" "Hi casey klein." "Ah going for your own look,I see." "Yeah,thought I'd go for a helpful gay pirate kind of thing." "You don't look helpful." "Actually,I learned in sensitivity seminar, we don't use that word." "Okay,I mean,I'm not,but we don't know who-might be,you know  a pirate?" " Helpful?" "Gay." "Is that little fried chickens?" "Gordon,you aren't wearing that?" "What?" "You look like a homeless person." "What about the nice pleated shorts I got you?" "And are you planning on shaving?" "The guests will be here any minute." "I'm with you,on the shorts, like the motto says, it's your party and you deserve to  yes,excellent  oh excellent" "I like that word,use that word for your feedback card." "We'll be having video?"

"'Cause everyone is completely stupid." "No one knows repo man, but they'll put this idiot for a show about defensive walls- well,it's not about walls." "That's what "palisades" means." "Okay,maybe it's not as cool as your script about worms... wormholes." "You you ever heard of physics?" "A tear in the fabric of time." " Roman." " Wormhole." "What am I not hearing?"
