Quotes 

• Eugene Beale : Libby's a pole dancer in a strip club.

  Gabrielle : Oh! Wow, that, that sounds like interesting work.

  Libby : You'd think so, but it gets old quickly. My big dream is to become a choreographer.

  Carlos : Really?

  Libby : Yeah. I made up this one move. It's called the serpent's tongue, and all the girls at the club are doing it now. It's so cool. If I had a pole I could show you.

  Carlos : Well, we'll have to go down to the club and check that out. We'll make a night of it.

• Carlos : Oh, my god. Are you trying to say that you don't want Deanna's baby because she's plain?

  Gabrielle : No, plain I can handle. Carlos, since that woman has walked into our house, the clocks have stopped working.

  Carlos : No one can predict what a child is gonna look like. For all you know, her kid could end up winning beauty contests.

  Gabrielle : With her D.N.A., the only thing that kid's gonna be winning is best in show.

• Carlos : That was our lawyer. Libby rejected us as parents.

  Gabrielle : Why?

  Gabrielle : What? That's discrimination. It's illegal. We could have her arrested.

  Carlos : It's her baby. She can do whatever the hell she wants to with it. Damn it.

  Gabrielle : No! No, you don't just toss people aside because of the color of their skin.

  Carlos : We tossed those birth mothers aside because of their appearance.

  Gabrielle : Well, that's different.

  Carlos : Why?

  Gabrielle : Because I've read the constitution and it does not protect ugly people.
