[The brothers later arrive at the house to see a delirious Caesar being carried out on a stretcher by paramedics]

Oh, my God!

Caesar, what happened?

Paramedic

Please, sir, he's not well.

Try to think! Did you kill the mouse?

Caesar

What's that? Horse?! Fiendish! I won't eat it! [He keeps ranting and raving as he's carried away]

[as Ernie blasts the house apart with a shotgun]

Are you crazy? You're blowing the whole house up! The only thing you haven't hit so far is the mouse! Why don't you give someone else a chance with that gun? [Ernie levels the shotgun at him, and Lars immediately relents] You're doing a wonderful job.

[Doing taste tests with the mouse]

Here you go, knock yourself out. [The mouse takes a bite of the string cheese and throws it down] No good, huh? Otis, more curry! [He gives him the next string cheese] Okay, try this one. [He eats it all up] Eh? It's mozzarella and herring. You can taste the herring, right? I've also got a great idea for a caviar-brie swirl and a peanut butter and jelly-provolone for the kids.

[explaining to Ernie how April apologized to him]

She just showed up at the factory, took off her coat, and begged me to take her. We made love in a way that I've only ever seen in nature films.

[holding a tiny box, addressed to Fidel Castro in Havana, Cuba]

Aw... I forgot to put holes in the box! [He chuckles evilly]

[Upon seeing the box, returned for insufficient postage]

I told you, you should have weighed him.

Christmas isn't about complaining over what we don't have. We should be thankful for what we do have.

Ernie, It's Christmas. Instead of dwelling what we don't have. We should be thankful for what we do have.

No capers? But that's just grilled cheese. What's the point? Why don't they eat out of a trough? [He rings a counter-bell, looking around at the diner's customers] Alright! Which one of you palateless sheep sent my sandwich back?
