Numb3rs 2x19

Dark Matter

Season 2, Episode 19

* Megan: Coincidence?
   Larry: Well, as a prominent cosmologist once said, "Coincidence is the last refuge of the uninspired".
   Megan: What cosmologist said that?


* Larry: Merely a very crude attempt at lending privacy. At the risk of sounding embarrassingly misguided, would you care to join me for dinner? Or a show, perhaps? Or maybe even some terpsichorean pleasure?
   Megan: I don't know what the third one means, but dinner sounds nice.

* Charlie: You got a date, huh? You don't seem too excited.
   Larry: Mine is an inner frenzy. Like some highly agitated molecular brew. I can't even settle on a restaurant.
   Charlie: Well, you know, Italian's always romantic.
   Larry: The kinetics of angel hair and red sauce, it's a bit too much of a challenge, I'm afraid. Plus, I think I prefer not to wear a bib.
   Charlie: I think you need to loosen up, you know? Free your molecules, and your ass will follow.
   Larry: Oh, yeah, well, sound advice.


* Larry: You know, in cosmology, when faced with logical inconsistencies, I like to fall back on an old chestnut: if you don't like the answer, ask a different question.
