Savage:
I have to say, I never did expect those birds to mate. I'm still amazed.

Penelope:
Does that mean I get my job back?

Savage:
Are you kidding? You're still fired. [he leaves]

Jaye:
Hey. Cheer up. At least they're doing it. That's what you wanted, right?

Penelope:
Yeah. I guess.

Jaye:
What do you mean, "I guess"? I've never seen anyone work so hard to get someone else laid in my entire life. You're like the total mack daddy bird pimp.

Penelope:
[confused] Thank you?

Jaye:
See how happy they are?

Penelope:
Uh-huh. And I know I should be too but I'm not sure I am.

Jaye:
Again, I go back to the working really hard to get someone else a piece thing. The payoff is never gonna be as great for you as it is for them. Don't you think you've been using these birds to avoid interacting with your own species for long enough?

Penelope:
Do you think that's what I do?

Jaye:
I do, yes. Yes, I do. I mean, human interaction is scary. And it's unpredictable and you have to interact with other, well, humans. And that's always messy. You're probably scared, and that's why you're using your animals as an excuse to avoid risk.
