    Movie quotes

    • Handy Harrison: [Sound of flushing of a toilet at Monroe Cole's house; Handy Harrison emerges out of the bathroom in front of astounded ex-president] I'm all done in here.

      Handy Harrison: [Realizing that was double-entendre] I mean, I'm done fixing it.

    • Handy Harrison: There's supposed to be a meteor shower at eleven. That could be cool.

      Sally Mannis: It'll have to be another time.

      Handy Harrison: Oh, it's not gonna happen for 240 years. Oh, okay, I'll pencil that in.

    • Monroe Cole: I had dignity once. Does anybody remember that?
