History Funny / TheIndianInTheCupboard

* The ritual Twin Stars goes through to bathe and dress the fellows (who are understandably quite embarrassed by the whole thing) the next morning is pretty hilarious too.

* In ''The Key to the Indian'' Omri and his father arrive in Little Bull's time ''stark naked'' because Twin Stars neglected to clothe the Iroquois corn dolls she made for them to inhabit. Omri's father's reaction (he pronounces the word "naked" to rhyme with "baked") is what really sells it.

* Omri decides to test the cupboard's power by putting a bunch of different figures in it, namely [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]], the T-Rex from ''Film/JurassicPark'', Franchise/RoboCop, a [[Franchise/StarTrek Ferengi]], and a few others. He turns the key and opens the door, only for his excited expression to change to one of [[OhCrap horror]] when he finds them all fighting. A moment later, they all pause to take in what's going on and look up at him.

* In ''The Key to the Indian'' Omri and his father arrive in Little Bear's time ''stark naked'' because Bright Stars neglected to clothe the Iroquois corn dolls she made for them to inhabit. Omri's father's reaction (he pronounces the word "naked" to rhyme with "baked") is what really sells it.

* In the second book when Patrick sends Omri back in time, Omri becomes a patch of fabric that gets burned in a raid. While the raid itself is nightmare fuel, it becomes funny when Omri is brought back and Patrick is freaking out trying to figure out what they'll tell Omri's parents about the fact his ''hair has been burned away!"
---> "Patrick:'''The bruises are easy. We can just say we got into a fight, but your ''hair!''

** And Adiel is so embarrassed that he even helps Omri to his feet.

* There's a brief all-out battle between Darth Vader, the T-Rex from Jurassic Park, Franchise/RoboCop, a [[Franchise/StarTrek Ferengi]] and a few others. A second later they all pause to take in what's going on and look up at a very freaked out Omri.

--> "Oh my dear sweet lord. [[INeedAFreakingDrink I need me a drink.]]"
* A mild example, but there's one scene with Little Bear building his longhouse while Omri's away at school, singing in his native language as he works. Suddenly, from off screen, we hear the sounds of hammering (presumably Omri's father building the skylight that A.D. wanted.) and Little Bear suddenly goes quiet, listening. After a few moments, he decides whatever he's hearing isn't a threat to himself and starts singing again.

* When the cowboy character stumbles (obviously hungover) out of the titular magic cupboard, unaware that he'd been transported through time and space (and size). After swearing to lay off the hooch several times in a row, he realizes that he's surrounded by giant children, and proclaims... "Oh my dear sweet Lord. I need me a drink."
