'''Pinky:''' I think so, Brain, but what if the hippopotamus won't wear the beach thong?

* The BizarroEpisode "Animaniacs Stew" pairs the Brain with Mindy instead of Pinky. He gets chased by a riding lawnmower, and tries to escape it by climbing the side of a tree. The mower simply runs right up the side of the tree after him. Seeing this, Brain looks at the camera, and deadpans "This is most unexpected."
