I'm bisexual.
Lucia Puh-lease! I went to a bar mitzvah once. That doesn't make me Jewish.

Carl
What's the point of sleeping with you if it doesn't get your attention? If I always come second to Bill?
Lucia Excuse me?
Carl
Say the point of sex isn't recreation or procreation or any of that stuff. Say it's concentration. Say it's supposed to focus your attention on the person you're sleeping with, like biological highlighter. [pause] Otherwise, there's just too many people in the world.
Lucia So while I'm sleeping with you, I'm not supposed to care about anybody else?
Carl
Look for me first in any crowded room. And I'll do likewise. [pause] Otherwise, a person ends up sleeping with somebody else. [Looks at her intensely and then sits back and waits]
Lucia It's just a habit, thinking about Bill. Because of Tom.
Carl
I know.
Lucia I don't know how you do it. You're always so nice and so calm. Tom was like that too. It's depressing.
You're nice.
Lucia That's how I always felt around you too, like the Baroness in The Sound of Music. While everybody's just singing and climbing an Alp. And I just wanna STUFF THAT GUITAR UP THAT NUN'S ASS! And... ugh!
Lucia Vagina, vagina, vagina. Does that word do anything for you?
I don't think it does much for anyone, gay or straight.
Lucia [Dedee in labor]
Are you having contractions?
No, this is my sleepy face! WHAT THE **** DO YOU THINK?
Lucia Oh, no, no. But bring another human life onto the planet - that's whim time.
