my favourite line was when Peter was dressed up in all the clothes he bought from the other black dudes, and he is in the room talking to Howie, and Howie says
"you lookin like all kinds of stupid" and Peter says in a way he thinks is slang.
"really? well i got this outfit from your mama!"

i thought it was hilarious!!

ps: i don't know if i got the line exactly right, correct me if i'm wrong.

When Charlene went to Peter's office. Howie was also in the scene. Peter got a call from his secretary that Mr. Tobias is coming to see him.

Peter: Oh, God.

Howie: Well, this should be interesting.

Charlene: Uh-oh. What we gotta do, play "hide the sister"? Or do I gotta do that slave thing again?

My favorite was the part where Mrs. Arness wants to be invited for dinner and Peter really doesn't want to invite her.

Peter says, "Well, let me just go check if there's enough food. I'm not sure, because actually this is the night of uh, Yimenem, the holiday where white people eat very little portions because that was the night the Lord came down and he was given food and it was just too much, and he said 'No', and so he had a smaller portion. So that's why we might not have enough. So, I'll just go check and see what the Lord would say."

That was so funny. But all the ones quoted on this thread were funny. The whole movie was hilarious.
