Montel: Sylvia, my show is dead.
Sylvia: I know Montel. It's been talking to me from the other side all day. It is pissed.
Montel: Oh! What is it saying? I miss it so much already. I wish I could just see it syndicated, one more time. To say good-bye.
Sylvia: Wait, it's telling me something. You
what? You killed it? Montel — you killed your own show?? You KEEELLED it?
Montel: I didn't kill it. It will go on for another year in "Best of Montel" episodes.
Sylvia: I see headaches in your future, Montel. Headaches, and special features on Tru TV.
Montel: Not Tru TV!
Sylvia: It's called revenge! It's called karma! It's DEAD. And you DEADED it.
Montel: But I birthed it, too! It wouldn't exist without me.
Sylvia: That's what makes it so cruel.
