Funny / Numberjacks

• Much of "Almost Human". Asides Numberjack Man's antics, there's this bit:
  Agent 106: Can you send someone to-
  (The doorbell rings; she whips her head to the side)
  Agent 106 (surprised): That was quick!
  • Numberjack Man himself. Basically, the Problem Blob blobs a man and Four, causing them to think they're each other. This makes Four look romantically at the man's girlfriend and the man to arrange his arms like a number four, bounce everywhere he goes, and plonk himself in places where fours need to be. Five also imagines Four trying to live life while thinking he's a human and growing up to be a pop star, doctor, or racecar driver.
• The tongue twister in the episode "A Different Sort": "Problems with the people at the picnic in the park? Don't panic."
• In one of the audio stories "Potato Plot", there's this exchange when Five and Three are trying to come up with a way to get rid of the problem.
  Five: I'll say "please" to be polite.
  Three: Polite to giant potatoes?!
• In "Bear Necessities", Three roasts the Puzzler with this line:
  Three: Puzzler, Puzzler, you can't go yet. That teddy bear is still upset.
  Puzzler: Now Three tells me what I should do. Okay teddy bear, here's a shoe.
• During "Belongings", there's this line, where Three is being Only Sane Woman for once:
  Four: Don't eat at that cafe for a start!
  Three: This is serious, Four.
• Three being a Numberjack in the box in "Boxing Day". This scares Four and amuses Five and Six.
• This bit from "Matchmaking" where Four and Six are Comically Missing the Point when Five suggests a way to get rid of the Numbertaker.
  Five: Let's make it the same number of meanies in the park as there are elephants in the park.
  Four: But there aren't any elephants in the park!
  (Six just frowns in confusion)
• In "More Ways Than One", the Puzzler makes everyone do things in silly ways. These include:
  • A girl lying down to put her coat on.
  • A man dancing down the street instead of walking (only a problem because he keeps going sideways instead of forward).
  • The female gardener (who's been seen in several other episodes) using her shoe and then her glasses to dig in the dirt.
  • A woman drinking juice through a straw with her hands on the table, one foot on the chair, and the other in the air.
  • A boy riding his bicycle backwards.
  • Five also imagines the Puzzler making a man paint a wall with his feet, then by throwing the paint on, then with the Dancing Cow.
• In "Interesting Times", Seven says there was a man undressing to suntan...at night. Zero and One's reactions are what sells it.
• Every time Three and Four roast each other. This one from "Did You Notice Anything?" is just one example of many:
  Three: It's something strange and beautiful. (the thing falls off her "arm")
  Four: (turns around) Well, I can see strange. Not sure about the beautiful.
• Everything Fourteen does in "Into the Teens". Basically Four gets turned into Fourteen and starts bragging about how he's "cool" now that he's ten years older.
  • Later, when Five and Six comment on how a teenager couldn't handle their work:
  Five: Too busy singing.
• This exchange from "More 4":
  Four: Look what you've done to the little person!
  Three: He's alright!
  Four: No he's not! Half his head's fallen off for a start!
• In "4 He's A Jolly Good Fellow", Five tells Four to make a clock noise. Four then starts going "cuckoo".
• In "Seaside Adventure", the Problem Blob makes humans do the opposite of their jobs: a janitor litters, a waitress steals food, and a jogger jogs backwards in slow-motion. Later, the Numbertaker makes them lose control of their hands, leading to the janitor stuffing trash down his boiler suit.
