Quote #7
JAY: Kay…
KAY: I've just been down the gullet of an interstellar cockroach. That's one of a hundred memories that I don't want.
(Jay puts on his glasses.)
KAY: See you around, Jay.
JAY: No, you won't.
Ultimately, Kay chooses to zap the painful memories of his Men in Black years. Jay helps by replacing those memories with a story about a coma and reunites him with his wife. Although Kay, the black belt of liars, knows he'll be deceiving himself, he wants it, reinforcing the idea that lies might be a beneficial survival strategy in this film's universe.
