Bob's agent drops by the set with bad news: Disney has called and a tabloid has pictures of Bob in a topless bar. Lenny warns him not to throw the opportunity away, pointing at the photo albums Bob shows around and telling him that "word gets around." Bob answers each charge the same way: he is a family man.
Lenny Warns Bob About the Tabloid Photo
Bob Brushes Off the Warning
Lenny stops by Bob's trailer on the set to deliver a warning. Disney has called about a tabloid photograph of Bob in a topless bar, and Lenny tells him bluntly not to blow the opportunity. He adds that the photo albums Bob passes around put people off and that word travels; Bob insists he is a family man.
The scene is a professional warning wrapped around a private problem. Lenny's real point is not the photograph but the pattern behind it: the albums, the bars, the need to show people. He puts it as plainly as he can, "There could be a very serious conflict here between your lifestyle and your career," and Bob simply refuses the premise, answering with the line he keeps ready, "I'm a family man, a one-woman man." The two men are not really arguing about facts; they are negotiating what Bob is willing to admit. Lenny wants a small change, a little discretion, and he gets nothing but denials. The scene sets up the rest of the film: the appetite Bob will not name, and the career that will eventually be asked to pay for it.

Because they show a pattern, not a single mistake. Bob shares explicit pictures with people, and Lenny argues that this habit is what will damage his reputation.
No. He insists he is a family man and a one-woman man, then jokes that he may be horny but is not stupid. He deflects the warning instead of answering it.
He twists a solemn line into a joke: sex isn't a solution, it's the thing he is always thinking about. The quip shows how lightly he takes Lenny's concern.
