Quotes 

• Dennis Miller : I love the set, very Joe Pyne.

  Jiminy Glick : [delighted]  Joe Pyne! I LOVE Joe Pyne! Who's Joe Pyne?

  [Dennis laughs] 

  Jiminy Glick : Who is Joe Pyne?

  Dennis Miller : Joe Pyne was one of your predecessors. He broke down the barriers...

  Jiminy Glick : Broke down the barriers!

  Dennis Miller : Yes.

  Jiminy Glick : And so many barriers have been broken down, but don't you think politically, in the new climate that we're in, that there's not enough barriers being broke down, and people are so into themselves. What do you think about that, Dennis Miller, what I just said to you?

  Dennis Miller : I... kind of glazed over halfway through.

  Jiminy Glick : Glazed over, halfway through it.

  Dennis Miller : The first four words, up to that first preposition, I was completely on board. And then, I locked into those eyes, you reminded me of Dennis Hopper in the cage in "Apocalypse Now", and I thought, "I am on television with a complete MADMAN."

• Jiminy Glick : What I love about Dennis, it's one of his best things: He loves to bust my chops.

  Dennis Miller : I like to slightly massage you when I'm poking fun at you, so you...

  Jiminy Glick : Well, now we're back to the pool.

  Dennis Miller : ...Don't deaden...

  Jiminy Glick : Yes.

  Dennis Miller : ...And go inward, and you're not there for me to trash later on. I like to keep it alive. It's like one of the bodies in "Aliens 2" that they put in the pod, and the aliens couldn't quite eat them right away, they would sort of leave them on baseline, flatline them, so they could come in and suck their essence out periodically...

  Jiminy Glick : Suck their essence!

  Dennis Miller : ...That's what I like to do with you.

  Jiminy Glick : That's what you do so well!

  Dennis Miller : I like to suck your essence out periodically.

  Jiminy Glick : Everyone says: "No one sucks in Hollywood like Dennis Miller!"

• Dennis Miller : [as Jiminy is choking on a gumball]  I'd heimlich you, but my arms are three feet too short!

  Jiminy Glick : [laughs]  Wonderful, wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful, wonderful.

  [Dennis laughs] 

• Jiminy Glick : You've been a wonderful guest and maybe you would like to come back to the house. It's my birthday and Dixie's serving my favorite dinner: Caesar salad, smoked salmon sandwiches and a Singapore Sling.

  Dennis Miller : I'd love to, Jiminy, but I've got a previous engagement I just cannot get out of.

  Jiminy Glick : Oh. Where are you going?

  Dennis Miller : Not sure, not sure.
