Novels

  • From the Dietz-penned books, when a bounty hunter injured by a Moldy Crow flyover sees a pissed off Jan Ors with Guns Akimbo ready to retrieve a wounded Kyle, he decides that it's probably better to just play dead until they're both gone.

Dark Forces

  • A couple of levels feature graffiti of the words "Ewoks suck". In a game set before the Imperials met the Ewoks.
  • In level 7 (the Ramsees Hed spaceport on Cal-Seti), at one point, Kyle stumbles upon a refresher station (read: the restroom) with a Gran and two stormtroopers using the urinals, plus an officer standing aside. Or in other words, he literally caught the enemy with their pants down. (So to speak, anyway.)

Jedi Knight

Jedi Outcast

  • This moment during the opening cutscene of the first level:
    Kyle: Mon Mothma must be getting paranoid. She never used to send pros like us on blue milk run like this.
    (Mon Mothma's hologram comes online)
    Mon Mothma: Kyle, Jan greetings.
    Jan: Mon Mothma, Kyle was just talking about you.
    (Kyle looks at Jan)
  • When Kyle asks for information from a local bartender who doesn't speak good Basic about how to reach a crime boss. The bartender ends up luring him into a trap, causing Kyle to say this:
    Kyle: Never trust a bartender with bad grammar...
  • The protocol and astromech droids you can find on Bespin have this to say when you rescue them:
    Protocol Droid: Thank the Maker, we're saved!
    Astromech Droid: (droidspeak)
    Protocol Droid: Fine, be that way.
  • Admiral Fyyar's Evil Gloating scene:
    Fyyar: Worlds will tremble! Stars will shudder—
    [Kyle averts Talking Is a Free Action by tossing his lightsaber into the shield generator]
    Kyle: Your shields will fall.
  • Desann's death if he gets crushed by a collapsing pillar. His goofy death sounds make this way of defeating him even funnier.
  • Black comedy, maybe, but the way various enemies flip over in midair when shot, or the noises they make when falling to their deaths, can be very amusing.
  • Related, the fact that Kyle can snipe enemies in the crotch to kill them.
  • After Kyle defeats Admiral Fyarr, the gravity shuts off, forcing Kyle to effectively "swim" through the air as he returns the way he came. The lack of gravity affects everyone in the area, including a couple of R5 units Kyle had passed by earlier... and which are now just floating in the air, unable to do anything, as he returns the other way.
