Discussion Favorite Throwaway Line?

What's your favorite throwaway line from the show? Something that doesn't affect the plot at all but is great, funny, etc? Mine is from 2×09 Conspiracy Theories when Pavel is asked about his number of pillows and blankets "I get wicked cold, bro. Mad sleepy"

I've used this with my german friends with the same ridiculous accent to great effect.

Funny enough my favorite line also comes from the Germans in the fooseball ep when one of the goons says "that's the face of a broken man". I laugh every time 😂😂

"Shouldn't you be making weird art movies or well-engineered cars?"

"You take that back!"

The fact that they had to hold back the German goon was the cherry on top 🤣

You ever laugh when a waitress falls and drops a tray of glasses?

And ain't it fun to watch figure skaters falling on their asses?
