I always love when "Hands" Espenson is on. Alan Shore is so funny and cute with Hands. Their first scene in the court room greeting each other and hugging was adorable. I loved it when the crotchety lawyer, played by legendary comedian Shelley Berman, said, "You two huggers don't get to decide. I decide. I'm the decider!"
Hands' fake cigarette was hilarious. He looked like FDR, talking with a cigarette in his mouth.
Alan was cruel! He wanted to win and he knew that Hands was going to beat him. He had this look on his face and he realized that he would have to take Hands down emotionally to win the case. Lame! Poor Hands! He crushed Hands with that, "You'll be reduced to a bumbling, inarticulate man with Asperger's, because that's what you really are, Jerry." Ass. As he said, it's the ugliness of being a lawyer, but he definitely is better at compromising his humanity to win than most.
That rubberized dead body was so gross. Made my skin crawl.
Denny on being Lutheran.
Midget girl: What do Lutherans believe in?
Denny: A lot of things. Mostly ... Luther.
Apparently Denny doesn't know what his religion is about. Very cute.
Denny: I was abducted once. I can't be sure. It felt like a dream, only more real.
Alan: What happened?
Denny: Well, these aliens in the form of Ann Margaret, took me to their spaceship and had sex with me.
Alan: I'm going to go with dream on that one.
Classic Denny line: "Holy crap! I shot the rabbi!"
I missed Denny's antics.
"You don't blow up a whole country because you get mad! Only the United States enjoys that privilege."
"If I had a nickel for every time a midget broke up with my over politics."
Love him!
Alan: Denny, you think you can understand what it means to be Jewish.
Denny: Oh please, I can't even understand what it means to be Lutheran.
Alan: Do you believe in God?
Denny: Of course, I do. You know I do.
Alan: Why?
Denny: If you believe in God and it turns out that he doesn't exist, no harm, no foul. But if you don't believe in God and it turns out there is one, then you're screwed.
Alan: What do you think he looks like?
Denny: Like me, but perhaps thinner.
I thought this episode was much better than most of the episodes this season. I think it was really hilarious. Jam packed with craziness and hilarity.
