Pilar: "You're married to Shubie. Frank and Nancy. Tom and Martha. Fred and Sadie. Oh, even Lenny is married to Mabel!"

Nat: "Okay. Mabye all your friends are married, but there are millions of fish in the sea! What you need is a date night. I'll get a bunch of single ladies I know, and hopefully you'll find one who you really like."
