ALLUSIONS
“Welcome Dorothy. You’re not in Kansas anymore” - This is a reference to Dorothy’s quote upon arriving in Oz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TP_wx0qrKu0
“I mean, I am getting married tomorrow, so no funny business, like slipping me an illegal substance as they did in The Hangover.” - The Hangover is an 2009 American comedy film, co-produced and directed by Todd Phillips and written by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore. It is the first film of The Hangover trilogy. The film stars Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, Heather Graham, Justin Bartha, and Jeffrey Tambor. It tells the story of Phil Wenneck, Stu Price, and Alan Garner, who travel to Las Vegas for a bachelor party to celebrate their friend Doug Billings' impending marriage. However, Phil, Stu, and Alan have no memory of the previous night's events and must find Doug before the wedding can take place. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcdUhdOlz9M
“I mean, I love Carlton, but three weeks ago, I was in a cell making soap tchotchkes.” - A tchotchke is a small bauble or miscellaneous item. The word has long been used by Jewish-Americans and in the regional speech of New York City and elsewhere. The word may also refer to free promotional items dispensed at trade shows, conventions, and similar large events. They can also be sold as cheap souvenirs in tourist areas, which are sometimes called "tchotchke shops".
“This dude has a receipt for a ticket to a Michael Damian concert.” - Michael Damian is an American actor, Billboard #1 recording artist and producer, best known for his role as singer Danny Romalotti on the soap opera The Young and the Restless, which he played from 1981 to 1998 and reprised as a guest star on several different occasions, the most recent being in spring/summer 2012. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2v-DMpgO7o
“Then that cop from Santa Barbara that looks like Mr. Bean got him.” - Mr. Bean is a British television programme series of fifteen 25-minute episodes written by Robin Driscoll and starring Rowan Atkinson as the title character. Based on a character originally developed by Atkinson while he was studying for his master's degree at Oxford University, the series follows the exploits of Mr. Bean, described by Atkinson as "a child in a grown man's body", in solving various problems presented by everyday tasks and often causing disruption in the process. Bean rarely speaks, and the largely physical humour of the series is derived from his interactions with other people and his unusual solutions to situations. The series was influenced by physical performers such as Jacques Tati and comic actors from silent films. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVuBFQ_qstc
“There are, like, 3 billion chicks out there that need dudes like us, and that's just in the Ukraine.” - The name "Ukraine" (Ukrainian: Україна Ukrayina [ukrɑˈjinɑ]) literally means "Within the border". It was first used used to define the territory of Kyivian Russ in the 12th century. "U" meaning"within" and "kraij" meaning "border". The name has been used in a variety of ways since the twelfth century. Today, it is the official name of Ukraine, the country in Eastern Europe. Prior to Ukraine's liberation from the USSR, Russians called the country "Ukraine" but when referring to Ukraine would typically say "On Ukraine": for example, "I am on Ukraine" as opposed to "I am in Ukraine". This distinction is a subtle Tsarist chauvanism which delegates Ukraine as a "borderland" rather than a defined territory or country: "within the border". English people mistakenly translated the Czarist derivation as "The Ukraine"(with the definite article appended before the name), but this usage is on the wane and officially deprecated by the Ukrainian government and many English language media publications.

DEVGRU and its Army counterpart, Delta Force, are the United States military's primary counter-terrorism units. Although DEVGRU was created as a maritime counter-terrorism unit, it has become a multi-functional special operations unit with several roles that include high-risk personnel/hostage extractions and other specialized missions.
“But then there will be those days when you are sick in bed, and he'll rub your feet, or he'll try to make you Eggs Florentine from a recipe that he found online...” - Eggs Florentine is a variation of Eggs Benedict that substitutes spinach for the ham or adds it underneath.] Older versions of eggs Florentine add spinach to poached or shirred eggs.

“I feel like Kunta Kinte.” - Kunta Kinte (also known as Toby Waller) (c.1750-c.1822) is a character in the novel Roots: The Saga of an American Family by American author Alex Haley. Haley claimed that Kunta Kinte was based on one of his ancestors: a Gambian man who was born in 1750, enslaved and taken to America and who died in 1822. Haley said that his account of Kunta Kinte's life in Roots was a mixture of fact and fiction. Kunta Kinte's life story also figured in Roots, a TV miniseries based on the book. The character in the miniseries was portrayed as a teenager by LeVar Burton and as an adult by John Amos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejQ7xKF2tA8

“Prosecco.” - Prosecco (/prəˈsɛkoʊ, proʊ-/, Italian: [proˈsekko]) is an Italian white wine. Prosecco DOC can be Spumante sparkling wine, Frizzante (semi-sparkling), or Tranquillo (still), depending on the perlage.

The following varieties are traditionally used with Glera up to a maximum of 15% of the total: Verdiso, Bianchetta Trevigiana, Perera, Glera lunga, Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio and Pinot Nero.

“I did a shot of absinthe at the bar.” - Absinthe is historically described as a distilled, highly alcoholic (45-74% ABV / 90-148 U.S. proof) beverage. It is an anise-flavoured spirit derived from botanicals, including the flowers and leaves of Artemisia absinthium ("grand wormwood"), together with green anise, sweet fennel, and other medicinal and culinary herbs. Absinthe traditionally has a natural green colour but may also be colourless. It is commonly referred to in historical literature as "la fée verte" (the green fairy). Although it is sometimes mistakenly referred to as a liqueur, absinthe is not traditionally bottled with added sugar; it is therefore classified as a spirit. Absinthe is traditionally bottled at a high level of alcohol by volume, but it is normally diluted with water prior to being consumed. Absinthe has often been portrayed as a dangerously addictive psychoactive drug and hallucinogen. The chemical compound thujone, although present in the spirit in only trace amounts, was blamed for its alleged harmful effects. By 1915, absinthe had been banned in the United States and in much of Europe,

“I did a shot of absinthe at the bar.” - Absinthe is historically described as a distilled, highly alcoholic (45-74% ABV / 90-148 U.S. proof) beverage. It is an anise-flavoured spirit derived from botanicals, including the flowers and leaves of Artemisia absinthium ("grand wormwood"), together with green anise, sweet fennel, and other medicinal and culinary herbs. Absinthe traditionally has a natural green colour but may also be colourless. It is commonly referred to in historical literature as "la fée verte" (the green fairy). Although it is sometimes mistakenly referred to as a liqueur, absinthe is not traditionally bottled with added sugar; it is therefore classified as a spirit. Absinthe is traditionally bottled at a high level of alcohol by volume, but it is normally diluted with water prior to being consumed. Absinthe has often been portrayed as a dangerously addictive psychoactive drug and hallucinogen. The chemical compound thujone, although present in the spirit in only trace amounts, was blamed for its alleged harmful effects. By 1915, absinthe had been banned in the United States and in much of Europe,
