Transcript:
Huey: Who are you gonna talk to with your two-way? Huh? Tell me that! Riley: None of your business - don't worry about it! Huey: You're being brainwashed. The media are telling you every young black man has a two-way pager, and cornrows, and a wife-beater t-shirt, and a silly do-rag... Riley: That reminds me, who would I need to talk to about a platinum tooth - a dentist or a jeweler? Huey: Good grief.

I have a gold crown on a molar. It’s my second one. I sold the first one to a gold buyer for twenty dollars.

Ernest T. Bass wanted a gold tooth. He was going to have two front teeth removed and put it in the middle, so it would show up better.

The dentist. You only need the jeweler if you want a diamond inset.

I had a very skillful dentist, now retired, who loved her craft, and treated it like jewelry work, which in a way it is.
