A center of casual violence and capricious harassment where rampant vice and amorality permeate every stratum of society, and the barrier between food and sex has totally dissolved. Dialogue Paul: Mary, I just killed a man. Mary: [Looking at a black bag on the floor] He was a man. Now he's just a bag of garbage. Mary: [Talking about how to fund their restaurant] I was thinking about going to the bank and getting a loan. Paul: No bank is gonna loan us any $20,000. Mary: No, I know that. But a bank might loan us $10,000, and then we could sell some of your wine collection. Paul: Sell some of my wine collection? Paul: Why don't you go to bed, honey? I'll bag the Nazi and straighten up.
