View Quote [calling Eve but is left to leave a message on her answering machine] This is Adam. Look, I just wanted to thank you for everything you did for me. And... I wanted to tell you that I, that, uh... that I--that I wish so many good things for you. I wish so hard that all of your dreams come true. And... and that- and that's all I... And that's all.

Calvin: These are stock certificates. They denote ownership in a company.
Adam: Those look pretty. May I see them?
Calvin: Sure. They are yours. Your mother and I bought these for you before you were born to give you some money to help you out in your adult years. Unfortunately, they are all worthless now.

View Quote [Calvin returns to the shelter and reports to his family]
Calvin: Son, stay out of the adult bookstore.
Adam: How come?
Calvin: Poison gas is in there.

View Quote Eve: I made some champagne cocktails, like you requested. Funny, I only thought hookers drank these things.
Adam: I know Mom sure likes them.

View Quote [Adam brings his parents to a place out in the country, to a house that exactly looks like their old house in LA, to help them acclimatize with the outside world. He also introduced Eve to them]
Adam Webber: Dad, I don't know how to tell you this and I was gonna wait for a while to do it, but... Dad, there was no bomb. A plane crashed in our backyard. I looked it up in old newspapers.
Calvin Webber: You sure?
Adam: Positive. The Soviet Union collapsed without a shot being fired. The Cold War's over.
Calvin: That's what everybody believes?
Adam: Yes, sir. It's true.
Calvin: What, the Politburo one day say "we give up"?
Adam: Yes. That's kind of how it was.
Calvin: Uh-huh. [finally realizes that World War III didn't come to pass] My gosh, those Commies are brilliant! You've got to hand it to 'em! "No, we didn't drop any bombs! Oh yes, our evil empire has collapsed! Poor, poor us!" I bet they've even asked the West for aid! Right?
Adam: Um, I think they did.
