-->'''Penn:''' (on the subject of a cynical karate studier making the art of breaking boards seem like nothing more than a parlor trick) Okay, if you're gonna badmouth Sensei Mike's powers, you better stand up and start chopping some wood. Quit acting like [[TemptingFate your wife could do it in your garage with your neighbor]]. (scene cuts to [[YouJustHadToSayIt immediately what Penn just stated]]) Heh heh... oh shit. That's your wife, isn't it? In your garage? With your neighbor?

** From the same episode, a woman and her son believe that the wood grain in a door is a similar sign. However, one thinks it's Mary and the other thinks it's Jesus. Penn says this is an easy mistake since "Jesus and his mother ''do'' dress alike".
