Dead Like Me, Season 1

Dead Like Me (2003-2004), American dramedy show more »

[Dolores is setting George up for a conference roomful of collating.]

Dolores:
Collating is so Zen, so meditative. I suppose it's the rhythmic nature of repetition that frees the mind to think deep thoughts. It's like sweeping! Whoosh! Do you know where I'm coming from?

George:
[voiceover] Jupiter?

George:
I do.

Dolores:
You'll be amazed to discover how much your busy-bee hands have accomplished!

George:
Bees don't have hands.

Dolores:
No, they don't, do they? [grinning] But you know who does? You do. And you know what they say about idle hands?

George:
[voiceover] They'll strangle the person who asked them to collate?
