TV series:

• "Joe Blows, Part 1." Joe struggles to keep it together as he faces: Helen flaunts her relationship with Davis; Lowell (loudly) works on his new motorcycle; Roy incessantly playing Aeromass's new radio commerical; Fay insisting/expecting help for her umpteenth project; Brian seeking advice about his sex life with Alex; and an irritable passenger who lost some luggage. Joe maintains his composure, until the passenger complains about a scratch on his suitcase. The Crowning Moment of Awesome comes when Joe sends the suitcase to the complaint department (aka through a window) and calls everyone on their selfish behavior before leaving the airport on Lowell's motorcycle.
• "Boys Will Be Girls:"
  Lowell: Hey guys. Uh, listen, I was over at the drug store and they had these pictures ready for you. [Hands them envelope of photos of them kissing the dead body of their high-school gym teacher whom they'd dressed up as a woman, thinking he was asleep.]
  Joe: [panicked] Pictures?!
  Brian: Uh, listen, Lowell, you didn't take a look at them or anything did you?
  Lowell: Oh, no. None of my business. [sits at Joe's desk.]
  Joe: So, uh, is their anything else, Lowell?
  Lowell: Well, Joe... [puts feet up on desk and hands behind head] I think it's time we talked about a raise!
• Speaking of Joe, Helen, and Davis. . .Joe has just raced to New York to stop Helen from accepting Davis' proposal. As Helen tries to dismiss him and claim that the other night (when they slept together) meant nothing, Joe finally breaks down:
  Joe: You can't marry him! Have a life with him, have kids with him! That's OUR life! Those are OUR kids!
• In "The Lady Vanishes", after Joe ruins Antonio's chances at getting a girl (he needed help moving a filing cabinet, an inch), Antonio beats him up.

The band with Paul McCartney:

• Silly Love Songs. Paul wrote this song as a rebuttal to John Lennon and others, who criticized him for only writing... well... Silly Love Songs. The single went to #1 of the Billboard Top 100 for 1976, meaning it was the best selling single of one of the best years of music ever. It outsold Rock And Roll All Nite, Golden Years, and Bohemian freaking Rhapsody. I guess people haven't had enough of Silly Love Songs.
