- Peter: There she is, boys, the S.S. More powerful than Superman, Batman, Spiderman, and the Incredible Hulk put together.
- Peter: I heard that one of Shannen Doherty's eyes is off center because it's trying to escape.
- Jake Tucker: [about Peter] What's that, Daddy?
- Tom Tucker: That's Mercury, Jake. The planet closest to the sun. What it's doing down here by the wharf, I haven't the foggiest. We should probably ask a scientist...
- Peter: I'm a guy, you jackass!
- [After Peter wins the boat at a police auction]
- Seamus: The last captain of that vessel lost his life. And it weren't no accident! His name was Salty. And he was devoured by Daggermouth, the man-eating blowfish. You want to buy that boat? Go ahead. But don't expect me to fish your dead body from an angry sea that gave you fair warning.
- Peter: Are you up for bids, too? You are just precious.
- [After Peter crashes into a boat which kills a clown at a Bar Mitzvah]
- Boy: Papa, he killed Mordecai the Dancing Yiddish Clown!

- Peter: How am I gonna come up with $50,000 by tomorrow?
- Quagmire: Well, you could whore yourself out to 1,000 fat chicks for $50 apiece. Or 50 really fat chicks for $1,000. What? Don't look at me like that. Fat chicks need love, too. But they got to pay.
- Quagmire: So, were you like, in an accident, or what?
- Seamus: No. Me father was a tree.
- Salty: And now I'm gonna give you $50,000 to be on your way.
- Peter: $50,000? For What?

- Daggermouth: Oh, you! [Takes out a gun]
- Boom Boom: Yipes! [Both run out the door; cut to Lois and Peter]
- Lois: Oh, Peter, I'm so glad being a fisherman is working out for you. You know I gotta admit I half expected to come home, and all our stuff would be gone, and we'd owe somebody a whole lot of money.
- Peter: How can you "half expect" something?
- Lois: I don't know. It's just a turn of phrase.
- Peter: How do you "turn a phrase"?

- Abby: Time!
- Stewie: It wasn't right the first time you said it, why the hell would it be right the next ten times?! God!
