| 1 | * In "First Lensman", Rod Kinnison and Samms discuss a certain nefarious Senator who's basically campaigning to be President of North America. Kinnison briefly quotes and imitates "the demagogue's round and purple tones". And it ''is'' purple, even by comparison to the series' normal PurpleProse. So how does Samms think they should counter him? [[spoiler:Get Kinnison to run against him, because he's much more down-to-Earth and accessible to the common man. Even though he's ''still'' speaking in the series' usual overwrought dialogue, including his response to Samms' proposition.]] |
| 2 | * The part in "Second-Stage Lensman" where Kimball Kinnison casually decides he'll have to take over a planet in order to reach his objective. |
| 3 | * Kim Kinnison has an idea, and calls a conference of top-jet intellectuals to invent a new form of math. They're ''all'' such InsufferableGenius[=es=] that he loses 25 pounds from the stress of riding herd on them. ''And'' he had help. |
