The People vs. Larry Flynt (1996) Edit

A 36 year old male, gunshot wound to the left shoulder.

A Georgia prosecutor arrested some news dealers for selling Hustler …

A plea bargain because I found God.

A teacher educates our children …

A woman's vagina has as much personality as her face.

A.k.a. Jesus H. Flynt, Esquire.

Absolutely not.

Absolutely.

Actually, Larry, there's something else you and I have in common.

After one night, she's moving in with you?

Alan, it's Larry.

All I do is publish a magazine!

All I'm guilty of is bad taste.

All persons having business before the honourable U.S. Supreme Court …

All right, folks, make way. Let us through.

All right, marshal.

Also, and more importantly, it was a satire of a public figure …

Althea, good to see you.

Althea, that is the best damn idea I ever heard.

Althea!

Althea!

Althea! Hey, baby. Hey.

Althea?

Although Jesus told us not to judge, I know you will. So judge sanely.

An aversion to organised religion.

And …

And Alfred introduced her to all Reagan's Cabinet buddies.

And anybody who would like to purchase a copy of Hustler …

And as a preacher, you speak to a fairly broad audience.

And did you follow their advice on how to make a perfect martini?

And every time I come in there, you fuck me with this circus act!

And Hustler magazine has every right to express this view.

And I am good at what I do.

And I believe in going straight to the teachings of Jesus.

And I got money. And that gives me the power …

And I guess it's safe to say he …

And I'm afraid it wasn't funny the first time we printed it.

And I'm gonna use it to get back.

And if I go and prepare a place for you …

And if it ever loses sight of its basic heritage …

And if you don't like Hustler magazine, don't read it.

And it was your intent to destroy that integrity …

And keep in mind, we welcome Christians in here too. Thank you.

And next thing you know, bam, she's murdered.

And now, Americans for a Free Press …

And she was a real party girl. And they really liked her.

And that is a powerful idea. That's a magnificent way to live.

And that is the case here. The jury has already determined for us …

And that's not freedom.

And there is one thing I want to make very clear to you before you do.

And there's Toto, maybe, even.

And these tapes, Your Honour, are pure carnality.

And they should be! In all the times you've gone to court asking for help …

And this country is founded, at least in part …

And we can't see anything or do anything.

And what public purpose does this serve?

And who are you to defy God? Just shoot her!

And who is this man, and where is he?

And would you read the caption under that cartoon, please?

And yet sex is legal.

And yet, it is heroic to go spill guts and blood …

And you should care about it too.

And you're not on nothing?

And, honey, you're just taking this too far now.

Any research problems, I encourage you to use my archives.

Anything you say can and will be used against you.

Apparently it's been very successful for this kind of pain.

Are you ashamed to have your husband locked up?

Are you doing her?

Are you going to obey the court and reveal the source of that videotape …

Are you just trying to sell more magazines, Larry?

Are you saying you'd be interested in nude photos of Martha Washington?

Are you the publisher and the editor in chief of Hustler magazine?

Are you trying to hold the Reverend Falwell up to ridicule?

Arlo …

Arlo, you wanted something?

Arms up.

As far as they're concerned, you're just a pig.

As members of the Citizens for Decent Literature …

As much as I love you …

As soon as you get that ring around the finger, okay …

As you yourself said, I believe, in Pope v. Illinois:

At the heart of the First Amendment …

Baby, I'm just trying to illustrate that I am no longer willing …

Baby, let me see that flower in your left hand.

Baby!

Baby!

Baby!

Baby!

Baby!

Baby! Help!

Baby! Help!

Because a paper's got two sides, right? That's two. Multiples of two.

Because I think that sexuality is a God given gift.

Because I'm the worst.

Because of the million dollars that was offered for J.F.K.'s killers.

Because the freedom that everyone in this room enjoys …

Because we live in a free country.

Because we women, our batteries never run out.

Because what you're talking about is a matter of taste, not law.

Before we begin …

Boy, this is great, Larry. This is really great. I hope it was worth it.

Buckle up.

But ask yourself the question:

But ask yourselves if you want to make that decision for the rest of us.

But didn't it occur to you …

But don't give in to the bitterness.

But even beyond your membership, really, you've been recognised …

But he is guilty of inflicting emotional distress.

But I am not going with you!

But I could get in trouble printing these.

But I've always been supportive, always.

But isn't a community allowed to set its own standards?

But now there's a new, darker influence in Cincinnati.

But our right to decide for ourselves cannot be restricted.

But please don't ever, ever, ever doubt my sincerity.

But step away from the desk, will you?

But that's a far cry from committing incest with your mother in an outhouse.

But there's a price for that freedom, which is that sometimes …

But they are not irrelevant. They demonstrate the community standard …

But we have to take this seriously.

But what about children who gaze upon your magazine in our stores?

But what I do like …

But what is more obscene? This?

But what is the public interest you're describing?

But what these White House killers don't realise …

But what was …

But you didn't get his permission. And that's copyright infringement.

But you have to go back in that room and make some decisions.

But you know what? You guys can call this a circus …

But you know, Larry, I'm more ambivalent about what you do.

But you take a picture of somebody committing the act of murder …

But, you know, I have those tapes and this tape, and it just made me think of it.

Bye.

Came in pretty handy.

Can we discuss Cousin Bobby later? We need to discuss this seriously.

Can we just have our medicine, please, Dr. Bob? In peace?

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

Chester, you remember Althea? Shake her hand.

Closer.

Code pink. Code pink.

Code pink. Code pink.

Come here.

Come on, Althea, even Superman has his limits.

Come on, Larry. Stop. Stop it.

Come on, right on in here.

Come on.

Come on. It's okay.

Complain to the manufacturer. Okay?

Could I please buy a copy of the Hustler magazine?

Could you do me a favour?

Countersue.

Cut him into pieces and feed him to the animals! Get out of here!

Daddy.

Decent people are being corrupted.

Detour! Oh, no.

Did you enjoy this month's article …

Did you pray before you went into the courtroom?

Did you—? Excuse me, baby.

Didn't I fire you?

Do you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your saviour …

Do you agree?

Do you ever say anything positive, Jimmy?

Do you go to church, Larry?

Do you have an aversion to organised religion?

Do you have any connections to organised crime?

Do you have anything to say before I sentence you?

Do you have the tapes?

Do you really have the Vicki Morgan sex tapes?

Do you remember these instructions?

Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth …

Do you think that I wanted Jesus to tap me on the shoulder?

Do you want some coffee or tea or sandwiches …

Does that give you licence to mock the leaders of religious movements?

Don't ask for any more for a while.

Don't ever hit me like that again. Don't talk to me like that.

Don't hit me like that. I'll go back.

Don't interrupt me when I'm talking, okay?

Don't sneak up on us. Give us a heart attack.

Don't sweat it, bro. I love you.

Don't worry, the government will take care of you.

Don't you think?

Doug, get him out of here!

Dr. Kipper, please.

Dr. Kipper?

Everybody knows I've been a historical buff about first ladies for a long time.

Everybody's doing it, or everybody wants to be doing it, huh?

Everything's gonna be all right.

Excuse me?

Excuse me?

FBI. FBI, right?

Filthy. I've never seen anything—

Find somebody else to help you, then. This is not what I signed on for.

Fine, thanks.

Five and a half years since they shot me, and the government—

Flynt has been barricaded in his Beverly Hills compound for three days.

For the first time since those bullets …

For this court is now sitting.

Found it in a bathroom in a gas station.

Four million dollars' worth of cocaine, nobody's even nervous.

Freedom to speak one's mind is not only an aspect of individual liberty …

From now on, sex will be presented in a more natural setting …

From the waist down?

Fuck me? I believe you're the one …

Fuel the jet.

Furthermore …

Fuzzy pictures, articles …

Gentlemen, gentlemen, please.

Gentlemen, Playboy is mocking you.

Get that blow dried jerk motherfucker and throw him in the incinerator!

Get your friend Ruth to buy 2 fucking million of these magazines …

Give a big, big hand to Ilanis …

Give me a call after you get out of law school.

Give me a second.

Go ahead.

Go ahead. It's fine. Natural.

God is working through me. Don't you see that? I could accomplish anything.

God versus the devil. America's minister versus America's pimp.

God, do it. Just do it, then. Do it.

God, my French is so rusty.

Good Housekeeping? That's …

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.

Good, hardworking news vendors are being threatened.

Good. You're all fired.

Goodness, no. I do spiritual healing.

Gotta ask.

Grabs his champagne, and he walks away.

Hallelujah!

Hand the verdict to the bailiff.

Hands in front! Hands! You, hands on your head. Now!

Happy birthday, America!

Happy birthday, baby. And I have a heart from my heart.

Have to see what we can do about that.

He can hardly talk.

He claims he has naked pictures of Jackie O.

He is suing you …

He saw it.

He thought you and I would hit it off.

He told me that I was sick.

He's gonna be thrilled about this, really.

He's heavily medicated, among other things.

He's suing me? For heaven's sakes, on what grounds?

He's talking to Mrs. Claus and holding in his hand …

He's the VP of marketing!

He's very impressed by your conversion and wants to cut us a plea bargain.

Help!

Here I come.

Here it is, news service.

Here. Okay, that's perfect.

Hey, Althea, you—

Hey, baby.

Hey, don't look at me. Ask for bail, counsellor.

Hey, fuck you, Althea. You go be poor, okay?

Hey, go to hell, Larry. Go to hell.

Hey, Jimbo, are you trying to challenge my authority?

Hey, Larry. Yeah, it's Alan.

Hey, Leticia, I liked the way you blew that candle out tonight.

Hey, listen …

Hey, you show some respect.

Hey!

Hey!

Hey.

Hey. Are you that guy in that little sex paper?

Hi. How you doing?

How about this month we do Anita Bryant?

How do you feel about that?

How do you get the damn thing closed? They're all pushing down on it.

How many pages do we have right now, exactly?

How should I …?

Hustler depicts women and women …

Hustler magazine and Larry C. Flynt v. Jerry Falwell.

Hustler magazine depicts men and women …

Hustler magazine depicts Santa Claus …

Hustler magazine has a First Amendment right …

Hustler puts him and his mother together …

I … You bet your sweet ass I do.

I am a lawyer, okay, and I can't figure it out either.

I am in control now.

I am not a lawyer, Mr. Isaacman.

I am not ashamed of Larry. I never would be.

I am not trying to convince you …

I am renting the Puff and Read for the next 24 hours.

I am the publisher of the most tasteless, sleaziest …

I am this far, one second, one millimetre …

I apologise. I know I'm not supposed to joke, but that's sort of the point.

I believe him to be an undiagnosed manic depressive.

I bought this in a neighbourhood grocery store …

I can handle that. I think George can handle that.

I can't ever walk again.

I can't have a child with her.

I can't make love to my wife. I can't …

I can't speak for 20 years down the line.

I can't, Larry.

I could have to close up shop and fire a lot of people.

I could move mountains with God's help.

I do apologise, Your Honour, and …

I do.

I do.

I don't believe you.

I don't even know what we're engaged in anymore, Larry.

I don't have to.

I don't know.

I don't like what Larry Flynt does.

I don't mend bones. I mend troubled souls.

I don't wanna get married and stop the way we live.

I don't want to work at the magazine anymore.

I don't.

I fantasise about you, just, all the time.

I feel good.

I feel like I'm in hell.

I feel like it's me against the world. You're all I got, baby.

I figured we'd run maybe, eight, 10 pages per issue.

I fucking love you.

I got a subpoena for you to appear in federal court tomorrow …

I got bail taken care of. Don't worry about that.

I got limos and a jet, and I'm sitting on a mountain of money.

I got sent to an orphanage full of good, Christian nuns, who shoved my face …

I got this the other day, and I brought it by …

I have a hard time believing that you feel really great on nothing right now.

I have a number of honorary degrees.

I have a thought for you: Murder is illegal.

I have been giving you my best since back when people were laughing at you.

I have fashioned this American flag into a diaper.

I have in my hand Exhibit B …

I have it, and Mr. Fartwell …

I have some important announcements to make.

I have to agree with you.

I heard that you've slept with every single girl in every one of your clubs.

I just met you five minutes ago.

I know you can't, but …

I like that I live in a country where I can pick up Hustler …

I like the way you dance. I mean, don't get me wrong.

I love her.

I love you too, man.

I love you, baby.

I love you, brother.

I mean, hey, you're famous, right?

I mean, I got AIDS, Larry.

I mean, I look back at the stuff you did in the '70s, and it was …

I mean, sick sick.

I mean, there's no line between the two?

I mean, you know, if— It's like, if you don't make 20,000 plus a year …

I miss you too.

I need for you to answer one question, and then you're able to go back home.

I say Gerald Ford.

I say to them, Get some makeup. Get yourself some curlers.

I sentence you to 25 years in the Ohio State Penitentiary.

I specialise in civil liberties.

I think I missed that one.

I think it was six.

I think the real obscenity comes from raising our youth to believe …

I think you and I could teach each other a lot.

I thought I fired all of you.

I told you, I make that for peddling.

I turned the whole world into a tabloid!

I wanna appeal the Falwell case.

I wanna fess up and reveal my source.

I wanna take my bath.

I want him alive! I don't care if his head's in a fishbowl.

I want this ring on my finger …

I was taking the drugs because I was in pain.

I was wondering, because I thought …

I wish he'd have killed me. I do.

I would find that very difficult to believe.

I would suggest that if we're going to recycle it …

I'd appreciate your taking off that helmet.

I'd rather have a man who stands up for what he believes in.

I'll be perfectly honest. I don't particularly like what you do.

I'll give you a ride.

I'll go back, and I'll eat dog food, okay? Dog food.

I'm a secretary.

I'm done with it! I'm done with it, okay?

I'm gonna get some ice cream. You want some?

I'm issuing a bench warrant for his arrest.

I'm just a clown

I'm just curious why you haven't taken a stab at me.

I'm just kidding. I like you.

I'm Mrs. Flynt.

I'm never gonna be old and ugly, Larry.

I'm not gonna overdose. I'm in pain.

I'm not in pain now, so I don't want it. Why would I want it?

I'm only giving you half of what I just gave you.

I'm ordering you arrested for desecration of the flag.

I'm so impressed.

I'm so sorry, Althea.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Stapleton.

I'm sorry. Did you say no?

I'm sure she was.

I'm sure you were. But Oral Roberts wasn't, and Billy Graham wasn't.

I'm the most fun, I'm rich and I'm always in trouble.

If anyone tries coming after me, I'll shoot him between the eyes.

If I could just somehow let people know what great lays these girls are …

If I take that gag off of you …

If that's not censorship, I don't know what is.

If these magazines are legal and Hustler is not legal …

If we start throwing up walls against what some of us think is obscene …

If we want to change the laws, that's another discussion.

If you break moral laws …

If you do this, this company's gonna be worth nothing.

If you know what I mean, Your Honour.

If you violate his laws …

If you're gonna treat me like a baby, I'm gonna act like one.

Ilanis, I'll be by in about an hour, and I'll bring the Ping Pong balls.

Imagine suits against people like Gary Trudeau and Johnny Carson …

In a recent poll of Good Housekeeping magazine …

In my Father's house are many rooms.

In obedience to the will of God and upon the confession of this our brother …

In that case, Larry, this is a completely bullshit charge.

In the debate about public affairs …

In your case, what's more troubling is this organised crime charge.

Insofar as there is a public interest in having Hustler magazine …

Is it that hard to believe that I don't want any?

Is that the Tin Man?

Is your wife jealous of Ruth?

It depicts George Washington …

It don't matter. It's like when people slow down at a car crash to peek.

It is— It is time to feed the lions to the Christians.

It lets us look at public figures a little differently.

It may be wrong in some people's opinion …

It may not be the smartest thing to drink too much, but it's not illegal.

It says, Let's deflate this stuffed shirt and bring him down to our level.

It says, sir …

It says:

It serves the same public purpose as having …

It was a serious thing!

It's a picture of Santa Claus.

It's a very important value, but it's not the only value in our society.

It's all for the man on the go, man about town.

It's going too far. It's like you're losing your mind.

It's important you know …

It's interesting you mention Washington, Justice Scalia …

It's Larry Flynt. Is CBS interested in seeing videotape of the FBI …

It's me! I am not taking you.

It's not that simple, Larry. It's not that simple.

It's okay. They'll freeze us …

It's the easiest thing to claim and impossible to refute.

It's useless to argue about taste and even more useless to litigate it.

Jerry Falwell is always an asshole. That's why, Arlo.

Jerry Falwell talks about his first time.

Jesus Christ, Larry.

Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ.

Jesus loves me.

Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life.

Jesus, Althea.

Jimmy …

Jimmy …

Judge with your eyes open. What do you consider obscene?

Just a little something I got from down home.

Just another little touch wider.

Just calm down, Arlo. Don't panic on me.

Just forget I brought it up. Larry, just forget I brought it up.

Just get behind me on this, okay?

Just say yes because I pulled a lot of strings to make this happen, okay?

Just tell that miserable, old, grey haired bastard to go fuck himself.

Kerbside service. That'll be $8.50, lady.

Knock yourself out.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury …

Ladies and gentlemen, I ask that you review this material carefully.

Ladies, gentlemen …

Larry …

Larry …

Larry Claxton Flynt? Larry Claxton Flynt!

Larry Flynt.

Larry, do you have any regrets?

Larry, how could you misunderstand me?

Larry, I don't believe in labels.

Larry, I plead with you not to do this.

Larry, I went to Dr. Robert and …

Larry, I'm not gonna pretend that I understand what you go through …

Larry, it's a magazine, not a newsletter. How you gonna pay for that?

Larry, it's Jimmy here. You there?

Larry, listen to me for a second. Don't argue with me on this, okay?

Larry, over here!

Larry, there is an operation.

Larry, they say that you're paralysed.

Larry, what was your childhood like?

Larry, where did you get the tapes?

Larry, why are you here?

Larry, you look great, man.

Larry! Hey, Larry! Hey!

Larry! Jimmy!

Larry! Jimmy! You all get on to the house.

Larry?

Larry? Larry, you there?

Larry.

Leave it there. That's what you want.

Let me just say a word.

Let the cameras through, okay? You rolling?

Let's hear it for Camille. You were wonderful.

Let's recline a little. Yeah.

Leticia, I'll see you in two hours.

Listen to what I'm saying, okay? Listen to what I'm saying.

Listen, don't go any further.

Listen, I know the timing is lousy …

Listen, I was watching that damn island for four months …

Listen, it's just not that funny.

Listen, my folks are here, so just move the girls into the Jacuzzi …

Look around you. We are living in Roman times.

Look at that.

Look, it's not just them, Larry! Okay? It's me!

Look, Mr. Flynt, this case is bigger than just you and your magazine.

Look, there it is, the first Hustler newsletter.

Look, there's Larry. Look.

Look, you know, we're not running a flower shop here, okay?

Look, you stupid briarhopper, my dog could get an ID …

Ma'am, you cannot hide from this.

Madam Clerk, read the verdict.

Make yourself beautiful.

Many were surprised by the high court's decision to hear Flynt's case …

Marshal, put a gag on that man.

Maybe this is obscene to you.

Mister, what kind of business is this?

Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the court.

Mr. Flynt …

Mr. Flynt …

Mr. Flynt, do you think …

Mr. Flynt, how can you, as a good Christian, defend this filth?

Mr. Flynt, I don't want to step on your toes …

Mr. Flynt, I gotta ask you one time.

Mr. Flynt, I'd appreciate it, sir, if you would stick to the subject.

Mr. Flynt, is that an American flag you have on?

Mr. Flynt, is this a conspiracy?

Mr. Flynt, let your lawyer do the talking.

Mr. Flynt, obviously you can get whoever you want to represent you …

Mr. Flynt?

Mr. Isaacman, the First Amendment is not everything.

Mr. Keating, why are you here today?

Mrs. Flynt, now you listen to me.

Mrs. Flynt, were you surprised by the verdict?

My bank gives loans, and homes get built.

My client, Mr. DeLorean, will never find an impartial jury.

My client's name is Jerry Falwell!

My cousin Bobby shot a preacher in the back.

My dearest, how are you?

My friend, Alan.

My mind is fine.

My mother was a very godly woman …

My point is, they will never pick you …

NBC, ABC. What the hell's wrong with you, CBS?

Never in the outhouse as Hustler magazine suggested?

Never?

New Year's Eve?

No man comes to the Father …

No, a page has four. Four. It's like four. It's one, two, three, four.

No, but I don't think they had Playboy or People in mind either …

No, he's got that hat, like a funnel. You know, he's got that funnel hat.

No, I know the rules, okay?

No, it's gotta be an even number.

No, Justice Scalia. There is no line between the two.

No, Larry. You're the boss.

No, not that one. Your other left hand.

No, of course not.

No, that's all right. Can I just see the tape, please?

No, you're not!

No!

No! No!

No! No.

No?

No.

No.

No. But …

No. I think it was the interracial photo spreads. The KKK.

No. I told them I had the DeLorean tapes. Now they believe anything I say.

No. I was not surprised by the verdict at all.

No. No, you're not in hell. You belong to God.

No. That— Get back to that. That's exactly what we want.

No. That's just a disguise for censorship.

Nobody on this planet wants their religion and their porn mixed together.

None of you guys are fired.

Not for you to drink.

Now Flynt has to pay him 200 grand!

Now give me a little wider. A little wider.

Now I'm baptised too, is that it? Fuck you, Larry! Fuck you!

Now tell me who was the source of this videotape?

Now watch this. This is weird.

Now watch.

Now, I have a message …

Now, I'll ask you again, what was the source of this videotape?

Now, if Jerry Falwell can sue when there's been no libellous speech …

Now, our case is as good as any.

Now, the question you have before you today is whether …

Now, what do you boys have for me today?

Now, what we're gonna do here is …

Obviously not. So I'm gonna ask you one more thing.

Obviously, when people criticise public figures …

Oh, baby.

Oh, baby.

Oh, baby.

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

Oh, God. You know, there's nothing more certain …

Oh, Larry.

Oh, my God. First pussy.

Okay, and …?

Okay, I'm the big kahuna here! Do you have a problem with that?

Okay, let go. Let go.

Okay, let go. Let go.

Okay, let's go.

Okay, moving on. Asshole of the month.

Okay, now, let's go for that leg thing here.

Okay, that's all. I gotta go.

Okay? I am interested in your case.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay. I gotta give him some change.

Okay. Why don't you hop on?

On your knees!

One might say a national reputation for your sermons and your opinions …

One of the most cherished ideas that we hold in this country …

One, two …

Only in America, huh?

Only one.

Opinions are like assholes: Everybody's got one.

Or better yet, I can exercise my opinion and not buy it.

Or perhaps that's obscene to you.

Or this?

Order. Ma'am, if you can't control yourself …

Organised crime? Larry's not in the mob.

Our bed is so empty.

Our case is better than most. You're missing my point.

Our level in this case being admittedly …

Oyez, oyez, oyez.

Pa! What are you doing in there? Open up this door.

Particularly, you know, the big holidays …

Patch her through. Hello, this is Larry Flynt.

Patient doesn't appear to have any moving sensation.

Pay the preacher on the way in …

People there don't listen to me …

Plan. The plan is simple.

Please raise your right hand and place your left hand on the Bible.

Please, please …

Please, please help us.

Please, please, please.

Please, please.

Pornography has thrust its ugly head into our everyday lives.

Pretty shitty.

Prior to that, it's friendly.

Put him through. Yeah, hello.

Raise your foot.

Really, all it does is allow us to punish unpopular speech.

Really?

Reverend Falwell, at the beginning of this trial …

Reverend Falwell, have you ever had sex with your mother?

Reverend Falwell, you're a preacher, is that right?

Reverend, are you confident you will win this case?

Reverend, have you ever preached while you were drunk?

Reverend, I think you need to read this.

Right. I got it. Okay.

Ruth …

Say you ain't gonna do this. Promise me you ain't gonna do it.

Say you ain't gonna do this. Promise me you ain't gonna do it.

See that? That?

She ain't bad.

She ain't crooking me.

She doesn't look good.

She got the moves, don't she?

She said, quote, If a reasonable person could not believe …

She says she's the president's sister. Ruth Carter something.

She's a … She's a killer.

She's crooking you so hard, she's teaching you English now?

She's nice …

Shoot.

Shut up! It's my business, and I'll run it into the ground if I want to.

Some new technology or drug.

Some rules are made to help us, not hurt us, and I …

Somebody want to translate that for me?

Something stronger.

Sorry.

Sort of a prerequisite. I'm just wondering if that's true or not.

Stand back! Stand back! Ma'am, stand back!

Strip for me, baby.

Supper's ready.

Sustained?

Take off your pants.

Take this seriously, Larry.
