    • Quotes
      • Jack Tripper: Wait a minute, you'd go to a nude beach and get naked in front of total strangers but you wouldn't in front of me? That doesn't make any sense.
      • Chrissy Snow: It makes perfect sense. See, I don't know them, and they don't know me and they don't know who they're seeing, and I don't know who's seeing me. But I know you, and you know me, and you know who you're seeing, and I know who's seeing me. And both of them are me! See?
      • Jack Tripper: No, I don't see.
      • Chrissy Snow: And you're not going to, either.
      • [out the door]
      • Jack Tripper: I'd undress in front of you!
      • Janet Wood: Later, Jack, when we need a good laugh.
