[Burt, Danny, Jodie, Chuck and Bob are all drunk in a bar]

Burt:
Life plays funny tricks.

Bob:
[to Chuck] Oh, god, he's gonna make a speech. Spare me, please.

Danny:
Don't mind him, Burt, he's drunk.

Burt:
You see, what happens in life is this: Something bad happens to you and you say, "Oh, god! Look at this bad thing that just happened to me." Then you figure it's over and it will all get good again, but then what happens is another bad thing happens and then you say, "Pfft! That was a surprise. I mean, two bad thing in a row, but I guess that's it for a while, 'cause I just had my quota of bad." And then what happens is that some awful thing happens to you, like everything gets taken away from you, and you say, "Pfft! Well, that's it. I mean there's nothing else that can happen now. I lost everything!" And then, life plays its "funny trick"... you die.

Danny:
Life is unfair to do that!
