"Use the caddy, i'll be less chatty." "It's hilarious." "It's undeniably hilarious that i just said that." "Do you hear yourself?" "Great, we're in agreement." "Now just sign here, and we'll give you a key." "Give her a key?" "I'm a little confused." "Is that really necessary?" "It's like giving a squirrel a key to the park." "The park is always open, and the squirrel" "Is there with rabbit," "And squirrel and rabbit are there all the time." "So does squirrel need key?" "What is happening?"

"Yeah." "Look, if i'm being honest," "Yeah, i feel a little jealous." "You know, schmidt and i used to hang out" "All the time, and now we don't," "And it's weird." "I mean, to be honest, i think i was a little..." "Jealous, too." "Of me?" "In a way," "You're always gonna know him a little bit better than me." "Except physically." "You'd be surprised." "Hey." "Schmidt, relax." "We're good." "Yeah." "We talked, and everything's okay." "Yeah." "Thank god." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa." "Hey, easy, all right." "Okay." "Okay, there he is." "Everybody's..."
