Really brings out the yellow in my skin and the blue in my hair.::Homer: Marge, what are you doing in there?::Marge: Oh, uh, just testing out the new camera. And, uh, actually it's making me a little frisky. [chuckles]::Homer: Ohhh!::Marge: Yeah, I can totally see why this is so popular with so many celebrities. Pam and Tommy Lee, Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Sarah Palin's porn star look alike. I'm beginning to feel like a bit of a whorish celebrity.
Homer: Marge, are you almost done in there? I think the movie is almost done. And if we miss it I'll have to rewind it. And you know how much I hate pressing buttons. It reminds me of work.

"That Thing is My Son!"
Plot
Frank Horrigan is a secret service agent who keeps thinking back to November 22, 1963, when, as a hand-picked agent by President Kennedy, he became one of the few agents to have lost a President to an assassin when Kennedy died. Now, former CIA assassin Mitch Leary is stalking the current President, who is running for re-election. Mitch has spent long hours studying Horrigan, and he taunts Horrigan, telling him of his plans to kill the President. Leary plans to kill the president because Leary feels betrayed by the government -- Leary was removed from the CIA, and the CIA is now trying to have him killed. After talking to Leary, Horrigan makes sure he is assigned to presidential protection duty, working with fellow secret service agent Lilly Raines. Horrigan has no intention of failing his President this time around, and he's more than willing to take a bullet. White House Chief of Staff Harry Sargent refuses to alter the President's itinerary, while Horrigan's boss, Secret Service Director Sam Campagna, is supportive of Horrigan. As the election gets closer, Horrigan begins to doubt his own abilities, especially when Horrigan's colleague Al D'Andrea is killed by Leary. But Horrigan may be the only one who can stop Leary.

An assassin on the loose. A president in danger. Only one man stands between them...
Hunter: Was that you shooting?::Leary: Yes.::Hunter: That's a cool gun you got there. Could I see it?::[Leary gives him the gun]::Hunter: Shit, that's light! What's it made of?::Leary: Composite. Like plastic.::Hunter: Mind if I give it a little dance?::[Leary shrugs. The hunter shoots a duck]::Hunter: That is great! That is really really great! You wouldn't want to sell it would you?::Leary: No, I need it.::Hunter: For what?::Leary: To assassinate the president.::[Hunters laugh]::Hunter: Now what do you want to do that for, mister?::Leary: Why'd you kill that bird, asshole?::[proceeds to nonchalantly kill both of the hunters with his gun]
Leary: The irony is so thick you could choke on it.::Horrigan: There's no fuckin' irony, Mitch.::Leary: Think, Frank. Think. The same government that trained me to kill trained you to protect. Yet now you want to kill me while up on that roof I protected you. They're gonna write books about us, Frank.
Sam Campagna: Frank, The President sent his limo for you.::Lilly Raines: Well, that's the least he could do.::Frank Horrigan: Good, I love public transportation.
Mitch Leary: I have a rendezvous with death, and so does the President, and so do you if you get too close.::Frank Horrigan: You have a rendezvous with my ass, motherfucker!
Al D'Andrea: I don't know, maybe I'm... maybe I'm just wrong for the job.::Frank Horrigan: You're a good man, Al. You'll make a good agent.::Al D'Andrea: How do you know? This is the longest conversation we've ever had.::Frank Horrigan: I know things about people.
[Leary makes the first of a series of taunting phone calls]::Frank Horrigan: McCrawley?::Mitch Leary: Why not call me Booth?::Frank Horrigan: Why not Oswald?::Mitch Leary: Because Booth had flair, panache - a leap to the stage after he shot Lincoln.
Mitch Leary: What's kept you in the game all these years?::Frank Horrigan: Why don't we get together and have a drink? We could talk about that.::Mitch Leary: Oh, I'd love to, but I think the less you know about me the better.::Frank Horrigan: Oh, why?::Mitch Leary: Because I'm planning to kill the President.::Frank Horrigan: Oh, now you shouldn't have gone and said that. It's a federal offense to threaten the President. You could go to jail, even if you don't mean it.::Mitch Leary: I mean it all right. John F. Kennedy said all someone needs is a willingness to trade his life for the President's, right?::Frank Horrigan: That's right.::Mitch Leary: I'm willing.
Lilly Raines: What makes you think he'll call again?::Frank Horrigan: Oh, he'll call again. He's got, uh, "panache."::Lilly Raines: Panache?::Frank Horrigan: Yeah, it means flamboyance.::Lilly Raines: Mm, I know what it means.::Frank Horrigan: Really? I had to look it up.
Mitch Leary: What did happen to you that day? Only one agent reacted to the gunfire, and you were closer to Kennedy than he was. You must have looked up at the window of the Texas Book Depository, but you didn't react. Late at night, when the demons come, do you see the rifle coming out of that window, or do you see Kennedy's head being blown apart? If you'd reacted to that first shot, could you have gotten there in time to stop the big bullet? And if you had - that could've been your head being blown apart. Do you wish you'd succeeded, Frank? Or is life too precious?
[Lilly's wearing an evening dress]::Lilly Raines: What are you looking at?::Frank Horrigan: I was just wondering where you hide your firearm. Don't tell me, let me guess.

MENDOZA!
I was hanging with my friends and they said I looked peaked
I said I met a girl and she's making me freaked
Like no other girl that I've known before
She's driving me wild, knocks me flat on the floor
yeah she stole my heart with a butter knife
And I can't get away even if I try
Mendoza, Mendoza, why can't you see?
That you're the only girl, you're the girl for me
Mendoza
You got me burning now
You got me reaching out
And I don't know how
That I'll make it without you
You got me hanging by a string and tied up in chains
Girl you gotta set me free cause you're holding the reigns
You got me living in the shadow of your mountain of love
Girl you gotta help me up send a rope from above
Cause there is only one girl who can rock my world
Just one little chick and I know that girl
Like a key to a lock, things can never be the same
Yeah I know that girl, Yeah I know her name...
She took a rusty stiletto and she slaughtered my heart
Wrapped her finger 'round my mind, that was only the start
Dumped cement in my stomach just to even the score
And when she was done I only asked for more, More, MORE!
Cause you're too much woman for a man like me
And my love grows faster than a growing weed
Mendoza, Mendoza, why can't you see
That you're the only girl, you're the girl for me
