Beth Wexler : Loong Ta.
Lawrence Bourne III : Loong Ta. Yes, of course. Uh, what say we, you and I, take the first night out, just for ourselves, huh? A bit of dinner, maybe a few drinks, and then see a little bit of the city, huh? I mean, there really is only one thing we haven't shared.
Beth Wexler : [laughs] Very funny.
Lawrence Bourne III : [Takes Beth's hand and starts kissing her hand and up her arm]

Lawrence Bourne III : Interesting.
John Reynolds : You must have some friends in pretty high places, Bourne.
John Reynolds : Yeah, well, we do consider Washington our General Store.
John Reynolds : Damndest thing I ever saw. Training waived, location approval, Just like that, you're officially in the Peace Corps.
[to Beth]
John Reynolds : Beth?
Lawrence Bourne III : [Bourne reads his telegram] Hey! John, John, John, This, this is ridiculous. Really, now I am obviously not, of Peace Corps fiber. It's not that I can't help these people, it's just that I don't want to.
John Reynolds : You know, looking at you I think two years in Loong Ta might do you some good.
Tom Tuttle : Hi, Tom Tuttle, from Tacoma Washington. Where do we saddle up for Loong Ta?

Lawrence Bourne III : John, for what I'm about to do, you should be ashamed.
[Lawrence gets down on his knees]
Lawrence Bourne III : I'd like to go home, please. Please, can I go home? Please? Just let me go home. Can I go home?
