History Funny / MissFishersMurderMysteries

* In "Death & Hysteria", Phryne, Mac, Jack and his temporary constable examine the murder victim's body and Phryne suggests that the victim's [[ADateWithRosiePalms "electrical massager"]] electrocuted her. At first, Jack is unclear about what she means, but when she finally narrows it down for him, he gets all flushed and relates how he has seen something similar before:

* In "Murder In Montparnasse" Phryne and Jack recreate a hit-and-run using [[HoldingItForAFriend Hugh's nephew's toy cars]], complete with ridiculous sound effects. Phryne rolling a toy car along and making "vroom" noises is funny enough, but the normally stoic and serious Jack contributing a "beep beep" makes it ''hilarious''.

** Cess and Bert are intending to take up new jobs, saying that their old taxi can't handle Miss Fisher's furniture, as she'd asked them to move it. She accepts, and gives them an address, saying that there's an "expression of her gratitude there." Cue Cess and Bert staring at a CoolCar, which Cess drools over, while Bert mutters about having left the docks to get out from under the heel of capitalist overlords. Further cue Mr Butler, who arrives with a drink for each of them... and reveals that it's been arranged for them to pick up the furniture. The expression change is hilarious.

** Mr Butler's hilariously inaccurate assumption that Miss Fisher is a spinster with a regular routine and preference for the quiet life. After Cess sprays half his drink on the ground, the two wear identical smirks of, "Oh, this is going to be ''great''." When she turns up later, casually revealing that of her two new houseguests, one is the daughter of a murder victim and the other is street urchin thief, then advising he be careful with her luggage - her pistol's still in there, and it might be loaded. Mr Butler then looks up at Cess and Bert, who're gleefully watching the show from the balcony, and says: "Thank you for the warning, gentlemen."

* "Murder in the Dark" gives us the [[StiffUpperLip very proper]] Mr. Butler eating some of Phryne's cousin's weed-laced fudge. [[RuleOfFunny Predictably,]] he goes completely nuts, splashing in a fountain, squealing and being chased across Prudence's garden by Bert and Cess.

* The gang sees Miss Fisher undercover at the burlesque in "Murder Most Scandalous". Dot is shocked, [[MaleGaze Bert and Cec seem rather pleased,]] Hugh wants to die of embarrassment on the spot... then the camera pans over to Jack, who just closes his eyes wearily, clearly telegraphing the thought: "It's her, isn't it. Of COURSE it's Miss ''bloody'' Fisher doing the ''bloody'' fan dance... Christ, I need a drink."
** The best part is that he is, at the same time, clearly trying not to laugh.

* From "The Book of Juana the Mad", Phryne explaining to Mac just why she and Jack are currently at odds with each other:

-->'''Mr. B''': *counts up to four, giggling, before running off squealing*

-->'''Dot''': Ms. Fisher's right about one thing. Dressing to please a man is clearly beside the point.

'''Mac:''' ''[gestures towards Phryne]'' I have a friend who can enlighten you.

* "Murder in the Dark" gives us the [[StiffUpperLip very proper]] Mr. Butler eating some of Phryne's cousin's weed-laced brownies. [[RuleOfFunny Predictably,]] he goes completely nuts, splashing in a fountain, squealing and being chased across Prudence's garden by Bert and Cec.
-->'''Phryne''': How many brownies did you have?!

-->'''Phryne:''' ''[casually]'''Cause I'm carrying a gun. ''[pulls out her revolver]''

-->'''[[ConMan Hector Chambers]]''': The Police Association clubrooms must be in need of, what, a couple of new punching bags, yeah? ([[ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney]] pulling notes out of his wallet]]) Some new table tennis paddle sticks, yeah?

** Immediately following Phryne's performance, Jack tactfully explains to Hugh what's got Dot so upset: namely that the young lady who was just none-too-subtly flirting with Hugh is Dot's estranged sister. Hugh's eyes promptly bug out in a priceless OhCrap face and he books it after Dot without another word.

** Later in the same episode, the subtitles reveal that the Russian Phryne speaks to "Miss Valentina" is just [[FunWithSubtitles an assortment of random phrases]].
