John : Does anyone else feel she should
be moving in slow
motion ?
Bender : Will she want a large wedding,
ya think?
Sol : Shall we say swords, gentlemen?
Pistols at dawn?
Hansen : Have you remembered nothing?
Recall the lessons of Adam Smith, the father of modern economics.
Sol : "In competition...”
Sol and Neilson : “… individual ambition
serves the common good.'' Exactly.
Neilson : Every man for himself,
gentlemen.
Bender : And those who strike
out are stuck with
her friends.
Hansen : I'm not gonna strike out.
Sol : You can lead a blonde to water,
but you can't make her drink.
Hansen : I don't think he said that.
Sol : Nobody move. She's looking over
here. She's looking at Nash.
Hansen : Oh, God. He may have
the upper
hand now, but wait
until he opens his mouth. Remember the last time?
Bender : Oh, yes, that was one for the
history books.
John : Adam Smith needs revision.
Hansen : What are you talking about?
John : If we all go for the blonde, we
block each other. Not a single one of us is gonna get her. So then we go for her
friends, but they will all give us the cold
shoulder, because nobody likes to be second choice. Well, what
if no one goes for the blonde? We don't get in each other's way, and we don't
insult the other girls. That's the only way we win. That's the only way we all
get laid. Adam Smith said the best result comes from everyone in the group doing
what's best for himself, right? That's what he said, right?
Hansen : Right.
John : Incomplete. Incomplete, okay?
Because the best result will come from everyone in the group doing what's best
for himself and the group.
