* BadToTheLastDrop:
** Mr. Laneer reports that the corporation's office smells like an "open sewer" after the stink bomb. This is followed by Barney saying "Uh Nick, I think your coffee's ready." Nick answers "Very funny," then realizes the coffee actually is ready and says "Oh, you're right!"
** The bag lady is completely silent until she takes a sip of Nick's coffee and says "Geez, you call this coffee?"

* BlowingARaspberry: The bag lady seems like she might be completely unable to communicate, until a frustrated Wojo says "I'm trying to help you!", and she blows him a raspberry.
* ICouldaBeenAContender: Mr. Laneer had a shot at being a Major League Baseball player but his mom made him go into the law. He comforts himself by saying that as a lawyer, he can still rise all the way to the Supreme Court.
