[[AC: Episode 7 - A Prayer For Mad Sweeney]]
* After Laura releases Salim from his service to her and Sweeney, Salim thanks her then proceeds to insult Sweeney repeatedly for being a {{Jerkass}} while he hurriedly runs back to his cab to drive off.
** After this scene, when Sweeney asks Laura how they'll get to their destination now without a ride, Laura points to an ice cream truck. The ice cream truck driver tries to stop them from stealing it but Laura just puts a bunch of dollar bills in his hands in order to get him to agree. The truck driver then says his boss won't believe him because he hasn't been beaten up. Sweeney attempts to oblige him leading to this exchange:
-->'''Truck Driver:''' (nervously) Oh, uh, I'd rather she hit me.\\
'''Sweeney:''' Oh, trust me, you ''don't'' want her hitting you. (punches driver unconscious)
* After Sweeney [[spoiler:returning his lucky coin to Laura in order to revive her]], she responds by punching the wind out of him.

Alas, he can't even do ''that'' without bad luck getting in the way, crushing his nuts as he clambers out of the smashed car window and landing cheek first on the tarmac and potentially some broken glass.
