Waiter: Who?
Ricky Diamonds: Oh my god! What a dumb dork! You don’t know who Chris Angel is? Seriously, you’re a dumb dork, dude!
Jemma: Babe, should I take the napkin off my head now?
Ricky Diamonds: Yeah. Magic’s over. Sorry Jean, Jemma can shoot your wife outside.
Vanessa: Okay. You know, it’s been a long night. So we’re just–
