I love using this line.
I always assumed this was the reason he didn’t actually do the tests, although saying that he did earlier was a real cop-out.
I just love the way he took whatever money Lisa had and didn’t bother to do anything.
Well, like I mentioned earlier, I assumed that she clarified off-screen that she didn’t have ANY money to give him, so he never did the tests. But if he took whatever pocket change she could scrape together AND still didn’t do it, that would be even worse/funnier.
