Go To

  • Berthe: "Sometimes I think men raise flags when they can't get anything else up." BUH DUM TISH.
  • Before the revolution scene:
    Fastrada: Pippin is disloyal to you, my lord.
    Charles: Every son is disloyal to his father at one time or another, my lady.
    Fastrada: But Lewis loves you, my lord.
  • The mock-irritated little finger-snap used in many performances of "Spread a Little Sunshine" to punctuate Fastrada's sudden! realization! that she completely forgot! to warn her husband that his son is plotting to kill him. Chita Rivera's take on it particularly has to be seen to be believed.
  • "But most of all, Lewis looooooves Lewis!"
  • Charles casually being returned to life, and only being a bit miffed at Pippin for killing him.
  • The Lead Player gets so pissed at Pippin refusing to do the finale that he even yells at the orchestra pit to stop playing.
    Lead Player: Orchestra, pack up. Get your horns, guitars, and let's get in the truck...
    (The keyboard player is still playing as the Lead Player starts to walk away. He then takes notice of this.)
    Lead Player: (oozing with passive-aggression) Take your damn hands off that keyboard.
    (The keyboard player promptly stops.)
