| 6 | ->''"Yeah. That is a gun in my pants. But that doesn't mean I'm '''not''' happy to see you..."'' |
| 7 | -->-- '''ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}''' |

| 9 | Bob is a private detective. He's sitting in his office and waiting to meet his client, Alice. Bob has never met Alice in person before; he's only spoken to her on the phone. He has seen a picture of her before and, well, he… likes what he sees. The door to his office opens and he [[DoubleEntendre stands up]]. In walks Alice. Alice is extremely beautiful in a GaussianGirl or HeadTurningBeauty sort of way. Bob tries to [[DoubleEntendre keep his excitement down]] at meeting this gorgeous woman and tries to remain all business. Alice, however, is all too aware of the sort of effect she has on men. Noticing the look on Bob's face -- and Bob's ''pants'' -- she offers a sweet, sultry smile, and says, "Why, detective, is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" |
| 10 | |
| 11 | A clever StockPhrase originating from early Hollywood sex symbol Creator/MaeWest in which one character asks another if they have an erection while suggesting a less risqué reason for the other character to have a bulge in their pants. It has now become a common innuendo usually uttered by flirty women ([[HoYay or, occasionally, men]]). It's been said so much in media that subversions are more common; something besides an erection ''is'' in their pants. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | While the specific line just happens to be from Creator/MaeWest, this one is arguably OlderThanFeudalism: |
| 14 | |
| 15 | ->'''Herald:''' I am a herald, of course, I swear I am, and I come from Sparta about making peace.\ |
| 16 | '''Magistrate:''' But look, you are hiding a lance under your clothes, surely. |
| 17 | -->-- ''Theatre/{{Lysistrata}}'', Creator/{{Aristophanes}}, 411 BC |
| 18 | |

| 22 | !!Examples |
| 23 | |
| 24 | [[foldercontrol]] |
| 25 | |
| 26 | [[folder:Anime & Manga]] |
| 27 | * Inverted in the second volume of ''Manga/TheKindaichiCaseFiles'': Miyuki, wearing a low-cut dress, crouches down in front of Kindaichi, giving him [[{{Fanservice}} a good look at her cleavage]]. As she stands up, she notices his reaction and scolds him for keeping stuff in his suit pockets. |
| 28 | * After Sechs gets a male body in ''Manga/BattleAngelAlita: Last Order'', the team's Deckman servant greets him with this line. |
| 29 | * Done in the infamous ''Anime/CodeGeass'' swimsuit PictureDrama. Cornelia's bodyguards Guilford and Darlton are standing watch as Cornelia and Euphemia try on swimsuits, with a lot of suggestive dialog. Immediately afterwards, we see Guilford looking down as he asks Darlton if that's really the best place to store his handgun (we later see that he's in a Speedo). |
| 30 | * In the Latin Spanish dub of ''Manga/KomiCantCommunicate'', while they're celebrating Komi's birthday at her house, [[AmbiguousGender Najimi]] sits on top of Tadano's lap and then says "Hey, do you have another glass hidden, or are you just happy to see me?" |
| 31 | * In episode 8 of the ''Literature/ShakuganNoShana'' parody ''Shakugan no Shana-tan'', Wilhelmina and Margery are recast as prostitutes in a brothel Sabrac visits. Margery gets excited at how "large" he is down there, but he says it is the .44 Magnum in his pants. |
| 32 | [[/folder]] |
| 33 | |
| 34 | [[folder:Comics]] |
| 35 | * A variation from ''Comicbook/WhateverHappenedToTheManOfTomorrow'' |
| 36 | -->'''Hooker:''' I could break your heart for $50.\ |
| 37 | '''Metallo:''' ''(Rips open shirt to reveal a grappling hook where his heart should be)'' I doubt it. |
| 38 | * ''Comicbook/CableAndDeadpool'': |
| 39 | ** Lampshaded: |
| 40 | --->'''Cable:''' Did you go to a bar with a ''grenade'' in your pocket?\ |
| 41 | '''Deadpool:''' Or am I just happy to see you? |
| 42 | ** Played with again in an issue of a later volume after taking a GroinAttack which hurt Black Widow (the blonde one, Yelena Belova[[spoiler:, actually Natasha Romanoff working undercover in Norman Osborn's Thunderbolts]]) as well. See the Page Quote. Cue Black Widow trying to hold the laughter in. |
| 43 | * An issue of DC Comics' series ''Comicbook/YoungJustice'' featured Superboy, Robin, and Impulse at a Halloween party. A cheerleader flirts with Robin asking if he has a Batarang in his pocket, or if he's just happy to see her. He responses "Um, I'm [[BaitAndSwitchSentiment happy to see everyone here...]]" |
| 44 | * In ''Comicbook/TopTen'', after getting knocked into Dust Devil, Jackie Phantom says "That had better be a derringer in your pocket," to which Dust Devil replies, looking insulted, "Derringer?" |
| 45 | * In ''[[ComicBook/EarthX Universe X]]'', Venom (Mayday Parker) and dad [[ComicBook/SpiderMan Spidey]] are out of the fight with a gigantic Absorbing Man due to being hopelessly outclassed (he's taken on the attributes of ''Manhattan itself'' and is taller than the city skyline), so Spidey coaches her on one-liners "to make everyone think we have a plan". She finishes up with "Is that the Chrysler Building in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" Everyone glares at them for making light of the catastrophe, and Peter responds with "Damn. We're in ''that'' much trouble?" |
| 46 | * Inverted variation in ''Soeur Marie-Therese'': |
| 47 | -->'''Camille:''' ''(Not wearing any pants)'' I'm so happy to see you!\ |
| 48 | '''Marie-Therese:''' Yes, I've noticed. |
| 49 | * When ComicBook/BlackCanary and ComicBook/{{Zatanna}} see Franchise/JusticeLeague action figures in a toy store, Zatanna teases her friend by making the Black Canary and Green Arrow action figures talk to each other in [[BowChickaWowWow cheesy porn movie dialogue]]. In particular, "Black Canary" uses "Is that an arrow in your quiver or are you just happy to see me." |
| 50 | * Once, ComicBook/{{Robin}} ([[ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} Dick Grayson]]) and ComicBook/{{Batgirl}} (Barbara Gordon), were trapped in a safe by Crazy Quilt. Due to how close they were together, and Dick's attraction to her, Barbara asks, or hopes, if it's his belt that's touching her leg. Him standing awkwardly as ComicBook/{{Batman}} saves them suggests it wasn't. |
| 51 | * In the ''[[ComicBook/InspectorCanardo Canardo]]'' story: ''The Girl who Dreamt of the Horizon'', a seductive lady thinks Canardo is getting "excited", but he says he just has a revolver in his pocket. After they're interrupted by a motorcycle gang's attack, she is surprised to find out he wasn't kidding. |
| 52 | [[/folder]] |
| 53 | |
| 54 | [[folder:Fan Works]] |
| 55 | * No, it never does occur in ''Literature/HarryPotter'', but as Makani demonstrates, [[http://makani.deviantart.com/art/harry-and-ginny-that-one-part-29065414 it should have.]] |
| 56 | * Mai said it concerning a Lightforce Sword in ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries''. |
| 57 | * Inverted and subverted in the same line in ''WebVideo/YuGiOhGXTheAbridgedSeries''. |
| 58 | -->'''Alexis''': Is that an erection in your pocket or are you just a tennis ball? |
| 59 | * This seems to be a theme in ''Series/DoctorWho'' fanfiction; of course, the [[PowerPerversionPotential potential unconventional uses]] for sonic screwdrivers don't really help. |
| 60 | * Subverted with [[http://vanhinck.deviantart.com/art/Nice-Girls-Don-t-Date-Psychos-103792231?offset=0 this]] picture of ComicBook/TheJoker. |
| 61 | * Parodied in ''Fanfic/KyonBigDamnHero'', after [[spoiler:Kyon gets a new phone/PDA made from Ryouko's leftover data]]. Whilst the phone was still in his hand, this was said: |
| 62 | -->'''Tsuruya''': Is that the end of the world in your hand or are you just happy to see us? |
| 63 | * [[http://cosmicduckling.com/spirk/Kissing_by_Farf.jpg This]] ''Franchise/StarTrek'' drawing. |
| 64 | * In the ''Manga/DeathNote'' fic ''FanFic/FeverDreams'': |
| 65 | -->'''Light:''' You're hard.\ |
| 66 | '''L''' (thinking): No, I'm not. That's just the gun in my pocket. |
| 67 | * In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6624252/12/Nocturnal Nocturnal]]'' Dumbledore tells Ron a story of which this is the OrphanedPunchline. |
| 68 | -->'''Dumbledore:''' …so then the Countess asked, "Is that your wand, Albus, or are you just happy to see me?" |
| 69 | * This ''Franchise/StarWars'' parody ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/2453328/1/Attack-of-the-Lightsabers Attack of the Lightsabers]]'' goes way overboard on the "Is that a lightsaber in your pocket…" jokes. |
| 70 | * Mara Jade uses the line on Luke in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6852405/7/Fireworks-of-the-Soul-Series FIreworks of The Soul Series]]'' vignette "Jedi Luke-Meet Dancer Arica". |
| 71 | * In a fanfiction of ''Series/StarTrekEnterprise'' entitled "Confusion", Malcolm says to Hoshi, "Is that your universal translator or are you just glad to see me?". The only trouble is, Hoshi's a woman, both in the fanfiction and in the series, so that joke doesn't really make much sense. |
| 72 | * ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11912434/8/Return-of-the-King Return of the King]]'': |
| 73 | -->'''Bellatrix:''' Your majesty, is that a snake in your pants? Or are you just excited to see me? |
| 74 | * ''Fanfic/APossibleEncounterForAPhantom'': At dinner, Kim accidentally falls on Danny. She feels something poking her and Danny confirms it's his pen. Later, the two are trapped in a box and, after she moves a bit while pressing on Danny, Kim feels something poking in her thigh. She hopes it's his pen again. [[AccidentalPervert It isn't]]. |
| 75 | * [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] cosplaying as [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Link]] finds Blaze cosplaying as [[VideoGame/GoldenAxe Tyrus Flare]]: [[https://www.deviantart.com/jcfanfics/art/Sonaze-E3-Cosplay-749773859 "Is that a hook shot in your tunic or are you just happy to see me?"]] |
| 76 | * [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/smurfsfanon/images/4/41/Hero%27s_Happy_Hat.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130131145833 This bit of fan art]] from ''Fanfic/HeroTheGuardianSmurf'', in which [[SomethingElseAlsoRises the floppy part of Hero's hat stands upright]] when Smurfette is around him. |
| 77 | * ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5790760/15/Searching-For-The-Power Searching For The Power]]'': |
| 78 | -->'''Ginny:''' Is that your wand or are you just happy to see me? |
| 79 | [[/folder]] |
| 80 | |
| 81 | [[folder:Films -- Live-Action]] |
| 82 | * "Is that a pistol in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?", supposedly said by Creator/MaeWest at the railway station in Los Angeles upon her return from Chicago, when a Los Angeles police officer was assigned to escort her home in 1936. She delivered the line on film to George Hamilton in her last movie, ''Film/{{Sextette}}'' (1978). |
| 83 | * ''Film/ItsPat'': When asked if Pat has a banana in a pocket, or are you just happy to see me, Pat simply whips out a banana and says "I, uh, have a banana in my pocket." |
| 84 | * ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'': When Eddie is rather obviously hiding Roger underneath his trenchcoat, Dolores sarcastically asks "Is that a rabbit in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?" Eddie immediately asks her to "cut the comedy". |
| 85 | * ''Film/AceVentura: Pet Detective'' uses a variation on this as a plot point. When Lois Einhorn pushes herself onto Ace to seduce him, he mutters "Your gun is digging into my hip." As he's later heard [[ShowerOfAngst crying in the shower]], it ''wasn't'' a gun: Einhorn is actually Ray Finkle, a psychotic (male) football player who had heaps of plastic surgery to disguise himself as part of [[ItMakesSenseInContext an elaborate revenge scheme against Dan Marino]]. Ace is [[UnsettlingGenderReveal none too thrilled]] when he reaches this conclusion. |
| 86 | * From ''Film/ThePirateMovie'': "Is that a knife in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?" It turned out to be a knife that the pirate threw into the wall before demonstrating that he was indeed glad to see her. |
| 87 | * Used in ''Film/BlazingSaddles'' by Lily von Shtup, unsurprisingly. "Is that a ten-gallon hat, or are you just enjoying the show?"[[note]]One deleted gag (which Mel Brooks ''himself'' felt was too vulgar) would have subverted the joke of Lily discovering the truth about [[BlackIsBiggerInBed Bart's people "being gifted"]] when he interrupts her moans of [[ElmuhFuddSyndwome "Oh, it is twue!"]] with "I hate to disappoint you, ma'am, but you're sucking on my arm."[[/note]] |
| 88 | * ''Film/AmericasSweethearts'': During a dream sequence, we get this conversation between the ex-sweethearts: "Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?" "Actually, it's a gun." [shoots her repeatedly] |
| 89 | * Done in the Eddie Murphy remake of ''Film/{{The Nutty Professor|1996}}'', by the main character's JerkAss alter ego. |
| 90 | -->[''hugging older woman from behind''] "Is that a test tube in my pocket, or am I just happy to see you?" |
| 91 | * Used for HomoeroticSubtext in ''Film/TheBigRedOne''. Two soldiers are sleeping close to each other. |
| 92 | -->"Zeff, quit pockin' me with your rifle."\ |
| 93 | "That's not my rifle, Johnson." |
| 94 | * In ''The Chaperone'', Wrestling/TripleH's character hugs a man, then says in disgust, "That had ''better'' be your fanny pack." |
| 95 | * In ''Film/{{Machete}}'', the [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl naked woman]] in the opening feels Machete's pants and asks, "What is this ''long'', ''hard'' thing?" He answers, "My machete." It is. |
| 96 | * ''Film/Red2''. A Korean hitman is shooting at Frank Moss and Marvin Boggs with a [[GatlingGood mini-Gatling gun]]. Frank hugs the pavement as vehicles are chewed to pieces around him, only to find [[HoYay Marvin clutching him tightly]] for equally ineffectual cover. |
| 97 | -->'''Frank:''' Marvin, is that a stick of dynamite in your pocket?\ |
| 98 | '''Marvin:''' Yeah, but I'm saving it for an emergency.\ |
| 99 | '''Frank:''' Well, this is kinda an emergency, isn't it? |
| 100 | * Done without the line in ''Film/{{Hotel}}'' Creator/PaulMcGann's character is seen with a gigantic bulge in his itty bitty bicycle shorts; it turns out to be a chain lock for his bicycle. |
| 101 | * An awkward moment for Nick in ''Film/YouthInRevolt''. He sits on Sheeni while rubbing some suncream on her back. |
| 102 | -->'''Sheeni''': Hm, you get turned on easily. [Nick freezes] Don't stop, Nick. It's only natural. Girls are fortunate in that it doesn't show. [As he continues] For all the world knows, my vagina could be moist with desire as we speak. |
| 103 | * In ''Film/{{Ted}}'', when John and Lori are getting intimate at one point, she coyly asks if he has a Flash Gordon laser gun in his pocket. Turns out he does. She laughs and they continue. |
| 104 | * ''Film/GetSmart'': In an alternate take of the rooftop fight with Dalip, there's a bit more dialogue when Max lands facedown on Agent 99: |
| 105 | -->'''Agent 99''': Max, I thought you lost your gun. |
| 106 | -->'''Max''': ...I have to go. |
| 107 | ** Later, when Max lands on top of Agent 23: |
| 108 | -->'''23''': Is that your gun, Max? |
| 109 | -->'''Max''': No, it's my penis! |
| 110 | * In the scifi B-Movie ''Film/Legion1998'', the protagonist overpowers his guards and bursts into a darkened room waving a pistol. The room is empty as we hear a woman sniggering, "Is that a gun or is he just happy to see me?" The [[LightswitchSurprise lights then come on]] to reveal a row of male and female prisoners lined up waiting for him to join their ranks for ''Film/TheDirtyDozen'' InSpace |
| 111 | * ''Film/{{Pistolera}}'': When Angel is being released from prison, one of the guards grabs her and pins her up against the wall. She responds by wrapping her legs around his waist, and then remarks that it had better a knife in his pocket. |
| 112 | * In ''Film/FreeGuy'', when Millie lands on Guy's lap: |
| 113 | -->'''Millie''': Is that a Glock in your pocket?\ |
| 114 | '''Guy''': [[SubvertedTrope No.]]\ |
| 115 | '''Millie''': What?\ |
| 116 | '''Guy''': [[DoubleSubverted It’s two Glocks.]] \ |
| 117 | [Millie smiles and takes the Glocks.]\ |
| 118 | '''Guy''': Oh! |
| 119 | * In ''Film/{{Diggstown}}'', when Caine is in prison at the beginning of the movie, a fellow prisoner walks up behind him and sticks a cigarette pack in Caine's pocket, to which Caine turns around, smiles, and says, "Alex - is that $10,000 in my pocket or are you just happy to see me?" Turns out it is $10,000 so Caine can help him escape from prison. |
| 120 | [[/folder]] |
| 121 | |
| 122 | [[folder:Literature]] |
| 123 | * ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' has the old Troll pickup line, mentioned in ''Literature/MovingPictures'', "Is that the legendary Sceptre of Magma who was King of the Mountain, Smiter of Thousands, Yea, Even Tens of Thousands, Ruler of the Golden River, Master of the Bridges, Delver in Dark Places, Crusher of Many Enemies *takes a breath* in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?" The line is thankfully [[TranslationYes a lot more snappy in the original trollish.]] |
| 124 | * ''Literature/{{Dragaera}}'': Cawti, visiting Vlad Taltos in his bedroom, noticed a bulge in the blanket and asked, "Is that a knife in your hand, or are you happy to see me?" Vlad answered truthfully, "Both." |
| 125 | * In a moment that's a beautiful microcosm of the ''Literature/DresdenFiles'' series of as a whole, Elaine, Harry's former girlfriend that he spent most of his life thinking he'd killed, returns suddenly with a "Hello Harry, is that a wand in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?" Magic, noir mystery, Harry being a nerd, and Jim Butcher's fantastic sense of humor, all in one line. |
| 126 | * An innocent variation in ''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'': Morphing is a painless process, so Rachel is surprised when she starts feeling pain during the process of going from seagull to human. |
| 127 | -->There was a pain in my back and I had this jolt of fear. Was I feeling the morphing itself? The Andalite morphing technology keeps that from happening, but was it failing somehow? The pain was pretty severe, like the pressure of a... well, of a knee being driven into my back.\ |
| 128 | "Jake, do you have your knee in--" |
| 129 | * ''The Bronze Horsemen'' by Paullina Simons. When Captain Belov decides to [[InsatiableNewlyweds consummate his marriage]] to Tatiana, the following dialogue occurs. |
| 130 | -->"Do you feel me, pressing against your hip?"\ |
| 131 | "Mmmm; I thought that was your rifle."\ |
| 132 | "[[ICallHimMrHappy Whatever you want to call it]] is fine by me." |
| 133 | * ''[[Literature/JohnRain The Detachment]]''. Dox releases a teenaged girl [[IHaveYourWife they're holding hostage]] and is [[AMatchMadeInStockholm uncomfortable with how much he enjoys being hugged by her in gratitude]]. There's a gun tucked [[PantsPositiveSafety into his front waistband]], so he thinks that it will do as an [[PhallicWeapon appropriate metaphor]]. |
| 134 | [[/folder]] |
| 135 | |
| 136 | [[folder:Live-Action TV]] |
| 137 | * In ''Series/AlloAllo'', René gets alarmed while smooching an ActionGirl from the Communist resistance group. |
| 138 | -->'''Rene:''' What is that I feel between us? |
| 139 | -->'''Louise:''' ''(removes a Luger [[PantsPositiveSafety from her trousers]])'' Oh, it's only my pistol and a [[BallsOfSteel couple of hand grenades]]. |
| 140 | * A subversion from ''Series/{{Scrubs}}'' |
| 141 | -->'''Gift Shop Girl:''' Is that a roll of quarters in your pocket, or are you just having a really good time?\ |
| 142 | '''J.D.:''' Actually it ''is'' a roll of quarters. ''(takes it out and shrugs awkwardly)'' Laundry day… |
| 143 | * ''Series/TheXFiles'': |
| 144 | ** A deleted scene from the episode "[[Recap/TheXFilesS04E02Home Home]]" has the subversion when it's really an object in his pocket. Taken from the scene where the duo is doing an autopsy on a dead infant in an impossibly tiny bathroom (the "dead infant" part probably explains why the exchange was cut), Scully stops suddenly and looks at Mulder incredulously, who is behind her. |
| 145 | --->'''Mulder:''' That's my penlight.\ |
| 146 | '''Scully:''' Really? I thought a longstanding curiosity had just been satisfied. |
| 147 | ** In the episode "[[Recap/TheXFilesS07E19HollywoodAD Hollywood A.D.]]", the on-screen adaptations of Mulder and Scully have a moment. They roll into a coffin together, and Scully asks whether it's his flashlight or if he's just happy with their position. The joke is further extended when the movie Scully tells Mulder she's in love with A.D. Skinner. When asked by Mulder what Skinner has that he doesn't, Scully answers "bigger flashlight". |
| 148 | --->'''Movie Scully:''' Is that your flashlight, Mulder, or are you just happy to be laying on top of me?\ |
| 149 | '''Movie Mulder:''' My flashlight. |
| 150 | ** In the episode "[[Recap/TheXFilesS08E04Roadrunners Roadrunners]]", Agent Doggett phones in a lead on the local cult that kidnapped Scully, explaining "I just talked to a guy with a gun in his pocket -- and I don't mean he was happy to see me!" |
| 151 | * ''Series/PeeWeesPlayhouse'' substituted "wrench", and had Miss Yvonne say it to Carlos. He had a wrench, obviously. |
| 152 | * Lord Flasheart does this to himself in series two of ''Series/{{Blackadder}}''. "Nursie! I like it firm and fruity. Am I pleased to see you, or did I just put a CANOE in my pocket?!". |
| 153 | * Used in ''Series/PushingDaisies'', though without the exact line. After [[spoiler: Olive kissed Ned]] in a previous episode, Olive tries to make light of the awkwardness between them. When they bump against each other, she says "This is...what it is, isn't it? Unless that's not a rolling pin under your apron." Ned, of course, reaches under his apron and produces a rolling pin. Olive is ''quite'' the optimist, it seems. |
| 154 | * There is an episode of ''Series/StargateSG1'' where Carter and O'Neill are laying together for warmth. It's purely a joke on O'Neill's part since he's half-dead at this point and Carter wasn't feeling anything but drawing his attention to something else she'd noticed. |
| 155 | -->'''Carter:''' Uh, sir?\ |
| 156 | '''O'Neill:''' It's my sidearm, I swear. |
| 157 | * ''Series/SpinCity'': |
| 158 | -->'''Caitlin:''' You're enjoying this, aren't you?\ |
| 159 | '''Mike:''' What? No.\ |
| 160 | '''Caitlin:''' Then what's that pressing against me?\ |
| 161 | '''Mike:''' It's a cross wrench.\ |
| 162 | '''Caitlin:''' I don't care what you call it, just pull it back.\ |
| 163 | '''Mike:''' ''(produces cross wrench)'' It's a cross wrench.\ |
| 164 | '''Caitlin:''' Well, what's that?\ |
| 165 | '''Mike:''' OK, maybe I'm enjoying this a little. |
| 166 | * Happens beautifully in the ''Series/TheOfficeUS'', when Pam hugs Michael after he stands up for her. |
| 167 | -->'''Pam:'''' Do you have something in your pocket?\ |
| 168 | ''(long, awkward pause)''\ |
| 169 | '''Michael:''' A Chunky. ''(takes Chunky candy bar out of his pocket)'' |
| 170 | * ''Series/TheThinBlueLine'': PC Maggie Habib is getting into character for an entrapment operation, and uses the line on PC Kevin Goody--a naive manchild-type character with a crush on her. Melting in embarrassment, he replies "Actually, it's a Mars Bar" |
| 171 | * In the ''Series/ThirdRockFromTheSun'' episode "Why Dickie Can't Teach", Harry enters an executive meeting with a salami in one of his pockets (long story) and someone asks him if that's a salami in his pocket. He, of course, replies, "Nah, I'm just happy to see ya." |
| 172 | * In ''Series/RobinHood'' TV series: |
| 173 | -->'''Marion:''' Why Robin, is that Sir Guy's sword in your scabbard?\ |
| 174 | '''Robin:''' No, I'm just happy to see you! |
| 175 | * Referenced in the finale of ''The Detectives:'' |
| 176 | -->"Um, no, actually, it's my inhaler." |
| 177 | * ''Series/{{NCIS}}''. Ziva accidentally falls on top of [=McGee=] while inspecting a robot car. |
| 178 | -->'''Ziva:''' That had better be your handcuffs. |
| 179 | ** Abby enthusiastically hugs Gibbs after a long absence, then asks if that's his badge she's feeling. Gibbs naturally produces his badge. |
| 180 | ** Tony also preemptively denied it whilst [[NotWhatItLooksLike rolling naked in a bed with Ziva]]. "For your information, that's my knee!" |
| 181 | ** And then again with Tony and Ziva, when she jumps on top of him to protect him from an explosion, and knocks him to the ground, staying on top of him. |
| 182 | --->'''Tony:''' This is nice. I miss the old Ziva.\ |
| 183 | '''Ziva:''' I can tell.\ |
| 184 | '''Tony:''' Don't flatter yourself. That's just my knee. (both smile at each other.) |
| 185 | * ''Series/WhiteCollar'', after a female suspect searches Neal very ''thoroughly'' for bugs: |
| 186 | -->'''Agent Lauren Cruz:''' What is that? She making sure that's not a gun in his pocket? |
| 187 | * Subversion in ''Series/ComedyInc''. |
| 188 | -->'''Woman''': Is that a gun in your pocket or are you happy to see me?\ |
| 189 | '''Man''': Both. *Shoots her* |
| 190 | * Lampshaded slightly in the series ''Series/AlienNation''; a neighbor of Detective Matt Sikes gives him a plate of poached trout for dinner, in gratitude for an act of kindness that Matt didn't remember performing. He then visits Newcomer neighbor (and inevitable romantic interest) Cathy, who greets him teasingly at the door; "Well, Matt, is that a fish in your hand or am I happy to see you...no, that didn't come out right." |
| 191 | * Subverted in an episode of the short-lived series ''Series/TheCommish''. In a [[NoirEpisode dream episode set in an old crime-noir setting]], the main character pulls a gun out of his pocket to which, the FemmeFatale responds, "That was a gun? I thought you were just happy to see me!". |
