Funny Girl

In I Fall To Pieces Doyle says, “and people who need people are the luckiest”. These are lyrics from the song ‘People’ written by Bob Merrill and Jule Styne, which was sang by Barbra Streisand in Funny Girl.
In The Magic Bullet, Lorne and Connor reference the song again:

Lorne: “You know what they say about people who need people.”
Connor: “They’re the luckiest people in the world.”

Quotes

Lorne: I can't believe little ole Fred managed to sway Angel back to the dark side.
Gunn: Evil, not evil, evil again - I wish he'd make up his mind.

Ted: Not a huge demand for serial killer autopsies when you're living in a Utopian wonderland. You know what I mean?

Connor: Why would anybody reject love?
Gunn: (glaring at Fred) Maybe 'cause she has a history of doin' that?

Deaf woman: (signing) I wish I could be in Fred's skull so I could explode her brain and kill her for rejecting Jasmine.

Fred: I'm so sorry. I hope you can forgive me.
Jasmine: It's okay, I forgive...
Fred: I wasn't talking to you! I was talking to Angel.

Connor: Cool.

Little kid: I love Jasmine because she makes food taste good.

Conner: You ruin everything!
