Classic Bernard.
Bernard: Do you know what I saw earlier when you weren't here and you couldn't have seen it? He was, ummm.. He was sucking his trousers. And laughing!
Fran: That's a lie, isn't it?
Bernard: It- No! Absolutely tru- No don't, I made it up.
Fran: Come on Bernard, you'd be crazy to let him go. You need someone normal around here.
Bernard: Normal? He's normal is he? Is he? Haha what am I then?
Fran: Well you're a freak Bernard, you know that.
Bernard: ... Yes, I know... But I have rights!
