"I don't mean any disrespect, I get called the celery guy." "Well you're a man who celebrates, sells celery so therefore you're a guy and you're the celery guy." "I actually think that celery is exciting in its own right." "It's not that I need bacon." "But right now I could really use some help." "What do you have for me, that's what I'd like to know." "Do you have a girlfriend?" "I'm married." "Oh well." "But I'm willing to share the profits, of course." "Once celery takes off." "You want to play games with me?"

"Stop running, somebody catch them." "[Music]" "Hey, where were you, we almost got, what's happening." "We have everything we need, thanks for your help." "Who are you anyway?" " What kind of rows are those?" " Why is there corn everywhere?" "Corn used to be America's vegetable and then along comes bacon and makes every vegetable from zucchini to celery sexier than corn." "I'm sorry you got caught in the cross fire but our work here is done." "I was going to whore myself out, is that still on the table?" "Why would that still be on the table?" "For fun." "There was no FBI." "It was all a ruse big corn had been pulling the strings all along and celery was caught in the cross fire, thank you."
