- This exchange:Mildred: Hey fuckhead!Dixon: What?Desk Sergeant: Dixon, don't say "what?" when she comes in here calling you a fuckhead!
- And then she asks "You, get over here.", Dixon replies No, You, and thus she enters the police-only part of the station, making the desk sergeant even angrier.
- Robbie is angry and refusing to talk to Mildred, so she throws a spoon of cereal on his head. This right before his father Charlie arrives, leading him to complain that "I'm being insulted by a boy with Rice Krispies in his hair!" And as the conversation gets heated, Charlie's young girlfriend Penelope comes in, with all her remarks being so dumb that they make the scene even funnier.

Charlie: You don't have to explain yourself to me cause you're having dinner with a midget, Mildred.
Mildred: I'm not explaining myself to you.
Charlie: You kinda are. Look, I didn't come over here to break your balls. You can date as many midgets as you want. - During an argument, Mildred and Angela call each other a cunt, then Robbie chimes in, getting a "HEY!" from both women.

- A meta one: during Frances McDormand's Golden Globe acceptance speech, the producers were apparently terrified of her infamous Sir Swears-a-Lot tendencies and blanked out her saying words such as "Fox" and "shift," while a "shite" actually got through.
