[edit] Quotes
- Jack: That's a sharp tie you've got there, Dennis.
- Dennis: That douchebag up front made me wear it.
- Jack: Does he know you're the Beeper King?
- Dennis: I don't think so.
- Liz: This is clearly the nicest restaurant we've ever been to.
- Dennis: Hold on a second, this place ain't that nice, alright. It's got rats and roaches like every other restaurant.
- Liz: No rat talk tonight, okay.
- Dennis: [to Jack] You know there are 17 million rats per person in Manhattan. You eat a pound of rat crap every year without even knowing it, huh?
- Jack: I think I read about that in The New Yorker. [pause] Um, anyway, we'll leave you two to your meal. I hope you enjoy the choices that you've made.
- Tracy: I need to protect my reputation. You take away my street cred, and I am Wayne Brady.
- Liz: Nuh-uh. Wayne Brady has three Emmys. You have a People's Choice Award that you stole from Wayne Brady.

[edit] Notes
The trucker hats Frank wears in this episode read "Ninja Expert" and "Joystick Master."
When they start to panic near the end, Pete offers that they may get lucky and be preempted by some national news event, then inquires about Gerald Ford's health. Gerald Ford actually passed away less than a month later, and on the DVD release, the line is replaced with, "It's still hurricane season, right?"
[edit] Reception
"Dennis too is well portrayed. He plays the loud mouth ignorant New Yorker with conviction right down to inappropriate rat facts and emotional connection to his sports team. The writers even throw in a little bonding moment for them as a couple when they people watch at the restaurant. It was nice to see them having fun as it made it seem more plausible that she would stay with him." - The TV Critic's Review
