* Wednesday with Salim and the jinn. He refuses to let them sit in the backseat together, and so, the three of them ended up crammed together in the front seat. He tries to convert Salim from Islam to belief in him. Some lines include:
-->'''Wednesday''': I'm here to pick up two gentleman from the city of Sodom!
--> '''Salim, to a dwarf he was told to either comment or goad''': You are very tall for a dwarf.
--> '''Wednesday, to Salim''': You misguided monotheist. You know, there's still time to join the party train to Valhalla... I have faith in you!
