"Sorry, we don't serve circus people."


Ray's smartass remark to Robert in "Lateness" regarding him wanting a table near the back when Ray comes down in a tux. And if Robert had wanted to be a smartass back to him he could have said "Oh really? Well, that's discrimination, and that's illegal. I want to talk to your manager, and I'm gonna get you fired for being a jackass. Hell, I might even get this whole place shut down because of your stupid mouth!"

Just a thought I had, nothing more. The fact that Ray makes a crack about Robert's "freakish" size and Robert just sits there and takes it, because it wasn't in the script for him to retaliate? Well, I thought that was really lousy. It was a throwaway joke that I thought was uneccessary. But Ray does end up paying the price for his stupid idiotness later on. That was at least somewhat satisfying!

"Stupid idiotness"? I gotta remember that one......

Thank you, I'm rather proud of it myself.
