"I've got a lot of adopted granddaughters. In fact, one of Shira's friends..." (pause) "Some girl."
"They call him Berman the Bear because he can really pound the piano."
"I wanted to take away some money from you guys and make it easier on my executor."
"Would anybody like some of the Plan B cake?"
"I have 75 protegés."
