* In the ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' episode "Double Dipper", as part of a scheme to get Robbie away from Wendy, Dipper has two copies of himself make off with Robbie's bike, leading to this line:

--->'''Tootie:''' Your parents are gonna be here any minute!\\
--->'''Timmy:''' Wait... how do ''you'' know that?\\

'''Krieger:''' I'm not a ...''serial'' killer!\\

* Hilariously mocked in the ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' short "Bugs And Thugs," when Rocky and Mugsy are hiding from the police (actually Bugs disguising his voice) in the stove:

-->'''Bugs:''' Would I turn on the gas if he was in there? (Bugs proceeds to turn on the gas)

-->'''Bugs:''' Would I throw a lighted match if he was in there? (Bugs throws a lighted match into the oven, causing the inside where Rocky and Mugsy are hiding to explode)

-->'''Krusty:''' And I contend that those tourists were decapitated ''before'' they entered the [=KrustyLand=] House of Knives.

-->It's not the Mayor's fault that the stadium collapsed~!

-->'''Coilette:''' Hail, hail Robonia -- a land I didn't make up!

'''Leela:''' What do you mean why was I looking in the box?\\
'''Fry:''' I mean your hair. It's all different.

--->'''Bender:''' ''(enters Fry's bedroom)'' Aha!\\
'''Fry:''' ''(hides holophonor behind his back)'' Bender? I was just not playing the holophonor!

-->'''Bruce:''' Maybe we should take a look at that letter
-->'''Carl:''' Yeah I'd like to see that. Cause I can read just like everybody else. (to himself) And the charade continues.

-->'''Timmy:''' Morning guys.\\

** Fortunately, Timmy already knew about the super powers (giving he wished for them) but played along. The real surprise was Vicky, who's usually smarter than Timmy's parents (not that it says much about her), not suspecting anything near the end of "WesternAnimation/ChannelChasers" when she received a letter from someone who signed as "Deep Toot" and wrote in the back "I am not your sister".

--> '''Buckley:''' "I never wear Louise's underwear!"
--> '''Eddie:''' "Who ever said you did?"

-->'''Francine:''' And that fake lesbian kiss--what a great idea?
-->'''Linda:''' Fake? Oh yeah. Of course. Fake.
-->''(Stan arrives)''
-->'''Francine:''' Oh, hi, Stan.
-->'''Linda:''' Oh. That's your husband. I'd better get home to my husband, because I love him, and I'm so sexually attracted to him. ''(nervous laugh)'' Oh, yeah. He's got the good stuff. Oh, yeah.

-->'''Driver''': Sorry! I'm not trying to kill you. I'm just a drunk driver.
