This is a false statement. Americans are too poor (not too busy) to eat in restaurants. Bruno says "the average American family can't afford to dine in sit down restaurants anymore". This means Americans don't have enough money to eat in normal restaurants (where you sit down). If you can't afford (something), you don't have enough money (for something).
This is a false statement. Bruno has already invested money in Luigi's Pizza Incorporated. Bruno says "I bought some STOCK in the company, Luigi's Pizza Incorporated. 2000 SHARES to be exact." SHARES are units of STOCK that represent ownership in a company or corporation.
This is a true statement. Bruno says that Luigi's produce a "Super Power Pizza" that has "a diameter of 10 feet, and can feed ( or nourish) up to 100 people". Bruno thinks this unusually large pizza gives Luigi's a competitive advantage over other pizza companies.
This is a true statement. When asked what he did last night, Bruno replies that he had "a quiet night in". To have "a quiet night in" is to stay at home and relax.
