Sarah and the Band exit. Sky Masterson enters
Sky Masterson: Nathan, you old promoter you.
Nathan: So what if I am, sue me.
Sky : For random fun, i bet I can take any doll you say to Havana.
Sarah walks on. Nathan points to her.
Sky: Her?
Nathan: Yeah, her. So sue me.
Sky: Excuse me Miss, wanna go to Havana.
Sarah: No. I hate your kind.
Sky: I'm rich and handsome. And I'll find you some sinners.
Sarah: Oh, okay.
They go to Havana. Sarah gets drunk.
Adelaide: Nathan, we've been engaged for 14 years and haven't been married.
Nathan: So sue me, baby.
Sky (To Gamblers): I'm gonna roll you all for your souls.
Gambler #1: That's kind of a random proposal.
Sky wins the roll
They go to the Prayer Meeting
Nicely sings the show-stopping 'Sit Down, You're Rocking the Boat'
The brilliance of the show is then slightly decreased by the anticlimatic ending
Nathan: Yeah, so sue me.

1776
John Adams: These colonies ought to be INDEPENDENT! NOW!!!
Continental Congress: Sit down, John!
John Adams: I'm obnoxious and disliked--so I'll never put this Independence thing over! Wait, I'll get that egocentric nitwit Richard Henry Lee to make a motion for Independence!
Richard Henry Lee: At your service, Johnny!
John Adams: Now we need someone to write it--what about that REALLY tall guy who never says anything?
Thomas Jefferson: C'mon, Adams, my wife just got in town today--she and I haven't had a good lay in three months!
Ben Franklin: Oh, I can help with THAT!
Thomas Jefferson: Okay--I wrote your freakin' declaration. The Continental Congress butchered the thing like a prime cut of beef--but they HAVE signed it! NOW, I'm going down on my wife like you wouldn't believe!!!

Pacific Overtures
Reciter: NIPPON! The floating kingdom. An island empire that for centuries has lived in perfect peace, undisturbed by intruders from across the sea. We have no troubles here. Here life is beautiful. The girls are beautiful. Even the orchestra is beautiful...
Kayama: I must stop the invasion of the barbarians.
Tamate: There is no other way.
Fisherman/Thief: Oh sh!t! Americans! They've come to bring Democracy...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Shogun: *grunt*
Shogun's mother: Have some tea, my lord. Some poisoned tea, my lord.
(Shogun dies)
Kayama/Manjiro: Why don't we put some mats on the ground where the Americans stand in the Treaty House? That way they never touch holy japanese soil.
Madam: I own a brothel. These are my prostitutes.
Men dressed as women: Hi!
Madam: Isn't Japan weird? Let's go get some American CocK...tails!
Reciter: We don't know what happened at the Treaty House...
Old Man: I was there.
Young Man: And thanks to time travel techniques, I AM there.
Warrior: So am I.
Commodore Perry: ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR!
American Admiral: Hello!
British Admiral: Hello!
A Bunch of other Admirals: Hello!
Kayama: I'm going to sing a song about a hat, and by the end of the song I am going to be much older, and I will fully support Western Civilisation.
Manjiro: I don't like America.
Sailors: Look! A Geisha. Let's go sing a really pretty song that audiences will love, but they're going to be really disturbed because what we're really saying is that we're horny and want to have sex.
Man dressed as woman: Oh no! Father!
Father: What are you doing? I must kill you!
Sailors: But we sang a really pretty song!
(Father kills one of the sailors. Others run away)
Kayama: I really like America
Manjiro: For that you will die.
(Kayama dies)
Emperor: I know I haven't had much to say, but I've decided I like America, so the events of this play have been for nothing.
Audience: *groan*
Reciter: SO! Where are your troubles now? Forgotten?! I told you. Here life is beautiful. The girls are beautiful. Even the orchestra is beautiful. It is now 1976 and Japan is rich.
Welcome to Japan.
(Audience starts crying because the Reciter is so sad when he says these last lines)
