Notes

• Mac used to hanging out with Frank "under the bridge" (he was playing with a stray dog and between this and then drank three bottles of champagne).
• Mac used to wear his leather jacket at the end of "Mac's Mom Burns Her House Down", too [and in Original Pilot as well].
• When Charlie is freaked out with something (and he's happened to be in his apartment), he just goes into the 'CREVICE' - probably, that's somehow related with the "Night Crawlers".

Quotes

Dennis: Do I look foolish?

Dee: Well, what in God's name have you done to your face?!

Dennis: I got a chemical peel.

Mac: You look like a MONSTER, dude...

Dennis: I was just trying to live up to all of your expectations of me.

Dee: What expectations?

Dennis: Physical perfection. (?)

Dee: What?!

Dennis: Clearly, the success of the bar has proved that I have achieved physical perfection. And now there's nowhere else for me to go but
DOWN from here, so now I'm hanging on by a thread!..

Dee: Why don't you... lay off the skin... treatments for a while?

Mac: Yeah, yeah...

Dennis: Oh... You're don't think I should mess with my face anymore?

Mac: Well, right now it looks like you're wearing a MASK of yourself over your face.

Dee: Mm-hmm...

Dennis: Not a good one, not a nice mask of myself?

Mac: Not a good one.

Dennis: Do you guys think that a normal mask of me might look good?

Dee: Oh, my God...

Dennis: And if there was, would you guys wear it?

Mac: What is happening here?!

Dee: I'm VERY confused...

Dennis: I'm going to be alone!.. (judgemental gaze)
