Quotes

Peter: What's the big emergency? Why did everyone have to come in on a Monday?

Bert: The internet pretty much only lets us fire white males, so if you're not a white male, you're safe.

Peter: So, is Derek Jeter safe?

[Umpire enters]

Umpire: Safe! He's half black!

Bert: Hey, there PG. Been a minute.

Peter: Hey, Ernie. Uh, I mea-I mean, Cookie Mons-I mean Bert! Bert, sorry.

[Peter answers the phone]

Peter: Goodbye?

Lois: I gotta say, Peter. I had reservations about this cruise, but you do seem more relaxed.

Peter: Hey, good thing I had reservations on this cruise, huh?

[Brian sees a hot girl walk by]

Brian: Looks like mine won't be the only tail I'll be chasing this week.

Stewie: Who the fuck is Bob Welch?

Chad: You're not from here, are you?

Meg: From the cruise? No. I'm from a town.

Chris: Look! Oates is hanging onto Hall for dear life!

Peter: What else is new? He's been doing that for 40 years.

Chris: [sarcastic] Ha ha. [annoyed] Yeah, make fun of more people more successful than you. He's a millionaire. You're nothing.

Meg: Preesh.

Peter: Oh, we-Oh, we found him!

Brian: Fuck you! You guys left me down there to drown!

Chris: Technically, we left you up there to drown. The boat flipped.
