Funny / Sense8

Season 1

Episode 01: Limbic Resonance

• Lito's introduction, which is him during a film shoot.
  Priest: Have you come to confess your sins, my son?
  Lito (holds a gun to his head): No, padre. I've come to blow your fucking brains out.
  (intense music stops)
  Priest (looks in confusion): What?
  Priest (looks off-stage in confusion): I'm sorry, are we going off script?
  Director: Cut!

Episode 02: I Am Also A We

• The entire series of events leading up to Dani discovering Lito's sexuality seems destined for disaster... only for her to have the exact opposite response Lito and Hermando (and likely the audience) expected. The end result is the three drinking together, for entirely different reasons.

Episode 03: Smart Money is on the Skinny Bitch

• The morning after her staying in with Lito and Hernando, Dani mentions loving gay porn. Lito does a Spit Take, but Hernando just calmly takes a sip of his coffee and nods, as if to say "yeah, of course you do".

Episode 04: What's Going On?

Episode 05: Art is like Religion

• Capheus tries to deliver the contents of a bag to a specific address in return for his mother's medication. It is taken from him, and his attempts to protect it are an Epic Fail. When he recovers, he asks "the Spirit of Jean-Claude Korean Lady" for help.
• Sun's instructor chides her for being "of two minds". She deadpans back under her breath, "At least."
• Lito and Sun connecting with each other from the bathroom and makeup room (complete with a Mirror Routine) to the rooftop garden and the traffic jam are hilarious. This is aided by Lito's reaction to Sun's period which includes mood swings and nausea.
  Lito: Hernando, there's a crying Korean woman...
  Sun: I'm not crying.
  Lito: Okay. There's a Korean woman who's not crying in the same way that I'M NOT SCREAMING!
• Kala's auntie offers to talk to Kala if she ever has questions about what happens on a bride's wedding night. Kala thanks her, but replies that she already knows because she has the internet. Her auntie shrugs, and acknowledges that she knew that thing would be good for something.

Episode 06: Demons

• At the beginning of the episode Will plugs his number into Riley's cellphone so she can call him and confirm they're really speaking to each other. He asks Diego to pick up when she calls.
  Diego: It's some chick with a weird accent.
  Riley: "Weird accent"?!
  Diego: She sounds hot.
  Riley: I like him.
• Just after the orgy scene, the episode hilariously cuts to Capheus probably aroused by all that telepathic action but looking deeply weirded out by the fact that he was watching a video of Jean-Claude van Damme working out...
  • As the orgy ends, Nomi and Amanita share a moment, Lito and Hernando share a moment, Wolfgang lies back contentedly in the bath... and Will has a Grunting Orgasm, which he follows up by looking around to see if anyone was there.
  • The whole scene gets a lot more fun when you know it was the very first thing that Miguel Ángel Silvestre filmed for the show. What a way to meet your co-stars!
• Nomi commends Grace for taking the idea of hearing other people's voices in her head so well. Grace's line is pure gold.
  Grace: I'm a child of the 60's. If you didn't hear voices at least once, you were doing something wrong.

Episode 07: W.W.N.Double D.?

• Will asks the kid who saw Whispers' van if he got the license plate number. There's something utterly hilarious about how a ten-year old kid, gang member or not, immediately replies that yes, he got the plates, because he's not an amateur.
• After Wolfgangs's latest naked visit during Kala's wedding, she goes to pray to Ganesha and talks about how the god tempted her by sending her confusing visions, including that of a man with a big trunk. Complete with a tiny gong sound after the "very large..." as Kala is thinking of how to politely name the bodyparts in question and a shot at the statue.
• The majority of Kala and Wolfgang's interactions have taken place when one of them was naked. Kala later comments that it's nice to see him fully dressed.

Episode 08: We Will All Be Judged By The Courage of our Hearts

• When Capheus comes to Jela's house after the two have a falling out (due to Capheus' work with Mr. Kabaka). Jela's wife answers the door.
  Elena: Shithead! It's motherfucker.
  Jela: How do I tell them apart if you keep calling all my friends "motherfucker"? *sees Capheus* Oh, it's this motherfucker.
• Will kissing Riley. The two were in different physical locations so to Diego it just looks like Will is making out with thin air.
• It quickly becomes a Moment of Awesome thanks to Capheus, but Nomi coming down from the adrenaline high of being chased by police to incredulously point out to herself that she doesn't know how to drive in the most "I'm an idiot, why did I think getting into a car would help?" tone.
• Amanita stalling Whispers' men by figuring out something even an army of jackbooted thugs would never want to deal with in a million years: a woman changing her tampon. Best part; just seeing it made them back off, but they start running when she throws it at them!
• Will gets called to the Captain's office yet again:
  Captain: Look, Gorski. This isn't a movie or a fucking TV show.

Episode 09: Death Doesn't Let You Say Goodbye

• It's overall a very sad scene, but Lito's drunken breakdown after he and Hernando break up is pretty hilarious because he keeps treating incredibly petty inconveniences as equally world-ending disasters.
  Hernando, please call me back. I lost a flip-flop.

Episode 10: What Is Human?

• Lito's birth, in which his whole family, including his mother, was instead completely engrossed in a telenovela on their TV. No wonder he became an actor.
  • Even he seems to find it pretty funny.
• When Wolfgang returns the diamonds to Steiner, Steiner refuses to believe he cracked a D&S safe, the same safe that even his father who was considered the best safe cracker around couldn't crack, and threatens to shoot him if he doesn't tell the truth. Lito steps in and tells a little lie, the kind Steiner would want to believe, so Wolfgang can get to the gun he hid under the car. The lie is that Felix hooked up with a guy who had the safe combination. Steiner finds it hilarious and asks his crew if any of them would be willing to suck someone's dick for the diamonds. One of the men shrugs and responds yes. Steiner gets an "are you kidding me?" look on his face before berating the man for being stupid.
• Steiner's incredibly over the top scream when Wolfgang pulls out the rocket launcher and fires it at his car.
• Despite being for very high stakes, the fight between Lito, Joaquin, and Dani to get Dani away from Jaoquin has several moments of funny. At one point, Lito is getting punched and both he and Dani are begging Joaquin not to mess up his face. In another instance, Lito throws flower pots at Joaquin (and misses). The fight seen also pokes fun of some movie cliches such as the cigarette flick at the beginning, the loud crunch sound effects, and the metallic ding when Dani hits Joaquin with a shovel.
  • Lito's entire slow motion entrance when he shows up at Joaquin's place. There's a shot of Lito's car passing under the property's gates, on top of which is a wolf mantlepiece. Which is accompanied by a howling sound effect right as we see it. Narm Charm to the max.
  • Dani and Joaquin are both bewildered at Lito showing up. Not shocked or in awe, just honestly bewildered at how he thinks this will help the situation in the slightest.

Episode 11: Just Turn the Wheel and the Future Changes

Episode 12: I Can't Leave Her

• Wolfgang storms his uncle's mansion, but fails to kill the aforementioned relative on the first shot. He then has the audacity to complain that he couldn't possibly have anticipated Sergei wearing a bulletproof vest, because "Who wears a bulletproof vest in real life?". This from a guy who brings an RPG to a gun fight.
• When Will first officially meets Lito in the finale:
  Will: Do I know you?
  Lito: Yeah. We had sex.
  • Will is reduced to a stammering mess, but Lito says that it was very special. Will doesn't disagree.
  • And then Nomi pops up in between them and deadpans "Uh, we're on a clock here, fellas."
• Amanita and Nomi's theory that men cannot bear to see a Cool Car in trouble. When Will arrives at the BPO lab, most of the guards are gathered around, almost in grief that such a nice car is belching out so much smoke. One even cries that "It's only a year old!"
  • It looks like a guard is about to run up and stop Will, until Will points back behind him at the car. The guard promptly lets out a horrified "Oh my God...." and runs toward the horrifying specter of such a nice car in such a bad state.
  • Even Will is susceptible. When Nomi tells him the distraction is to ruin the car, he genuinely hesitates - bearing in mind he is on his way to rescue the love of his life from A Fate Worse Than Death:
    Nomi: Look at you, you're hesitating.
    Will:....It's a really nice car.

Season 2

Episode 01: Happy F*cking New Year

• Kala visits Wolfgang in Berlin in Winter. Having never seen snow before, Kala eventually decides have a snowball fight with Wolfgang. Cue Felix and some women walking in on Wolfgang throwing snow in his own face.
  Felix: Wolfie, what the fuck are you on? And where can I get some?
• The special's interactions between Wolfgang and Kala are hilarious in general. At one point, he finds a partner on a Tinder-type app and ends up visiting Kala while screwing the unnamed woman while she's awkwardly attempting to finally have her first time with Rajan. The two talking to each other confuses Rajan, while Wolfgang's partner just goes with it in the moment, and it ends with a rather sudden and accidentally self-inflicted Groin Attack on Rajan's part.
• Lito trying to smash the glass door to his apartment building and failing miserably.
  • Then Wolfgang taking over to bypass the lock — something he could do ten times before breakfast, and Hernando and Dani hilariously look at him like he's the goddamn Batman.
• Rather than try to awkwardly ignore the fact that Capheus' actor was recast between seasons, this episode includes a fourth wall breaking gag in which Capheus and Jela discuss how a person's face changes over time; they ultimately decide that appearances don't matter, it's a person's heart that counts. The new actor's face then comes into focus, and when Jela remarks on how he looks different these days, Capheus shrugs and responds 'New barbershop.'
• Lito, Hernando and Dani go to Lito's mother's house for Christmas, the first time Lito has seen her since he was outed to the public. He finds his mother in a room set up for a party that's empty of guests, and the magazines showing the pictures of Lito spread across the table. Estella makes a lengthy speech "thanking" her friends for their support in such a difficult time before revealing she always knew Lito was gay, and that she loves him anyway. It's suddenly very clear where Lito gets his Drama Queen tendencies from.

Episode 02: Who Am I?

• During the premiere of Lito's newest movie his female co-star, who's sitting behind him, starts mouthing her lines in time to her own performance.

Episode 03: Obligate Mutualisms

• Will invites the rest of the cluster to gloat at Whispers after compromising his location.
• Nomi's serious text to Croome that they want Whispers "on ice" is appended with the not particularly serious "[ice cube emoji] + 🙉 (hear no evil monkey) = 😄 (smiling with eyes closed emoji)", and the contrast is amusing given the serious consequences of the text.
  • Just the entire cluster clearly enjoying themselves (to the point of toasting to it) as Will talks to Whispers without fear and even tells them that he has a sad expression on his face.
• The entire jailbreak sequence, with Min-Jung watching everything Sun does in awe.
  Min-Jung: Where did a banker's daughter learn to be a car thief?
  Sun: [deadpan] Other lives.

  [Later, after the cluster discusses what to do next...]

  Min-Jung: Are you all right dear?
  Sun: [beat] When I'm nervous, I talk to myself.
  Min-Jung: I don't want to interrupt what was a very lively conversation, but I have a friend who lives not far from here.
  • While the cluster getting tased isn't really that funny, there's something darkly hilarious seeing Capheus feeling the effects while driving the Van Damme. We even see the van suddenly swerving. Though it quickly becomes a Harsher in Hindsight when Sun is strangled.
• Wolfgang figures out that Fuchs is very vaguely talking about money laundering having spent almost all his attention on foreplay with Lila.

Episode 04: Polyphony

• Lito helping Riley create a distraction for Will... with the most ridiculous overacted screaming panic possible. His face, and the fact that the other sensates (probably the actors too) can barely keep from laughing. Even Will stops escaping to double-take a few times.
• More subtle, but Bug trying to come to terms with Nomi and Amanita talking about things he has no idea about and to thin air... With the sensates all in the room nodding in agreement when he explains how freaky it is to him.
• Lito is the member of the cluster most inclined to give Vincent a chance, even calling him "kind of sexy"...until Vincent insults a movie Puck and Lito like.
  Lito: Cheesy? I don't like this guy either. *muttering* You were right.

Episode 05: Fear Never Fixed Anything

• Sun gets so mad at a news report of Joong-ki begging her to go back to prison that she punches her trainer's television and shatters the screen. When she apologises he tells her he was about to do the same thing.
• Riley comes out of hiding to attract the attention of other clusters, and her first taker is played by none other than Sylvester McCoy, who lets out a stunned "Holy shit!" as he appears on stage with her. After his long family-friendly career, this is pretty much like hearing Mr. Rogers curse.

Episode 06: Isolated Above, Connected Below

• Another "guest" at the concert, Puck, appears to Riley as she and Will arrive at their new hideout. He is crude, sex-crazed, and brilliant (he confirms that the blockers are legit and can be replicated). Unfortunately, being a sensate, this means he can pop in uninvited.
  Puck: Blockers won't keep you safe forever, Riley Blue... not from BPO, and not from me.
  Will: What did he say?
  Riley: ...I think I just picked up the equivalent of a sensate STD...

Episode 07: I Have No Room In My Heart For Hate

• Joaquin returns and... clearly wants no piece of Lito after getting knocked out the last time they met. At the same time, Lito wants no piece of Joaquin because he knows full well that he doesn't stand a chance against him without help. All they can bring themselves to do is awkwardly shuffled around each other until Wolfgang Visits with a smile that makes it clear he's eager to kick Joaquin's ass again.

Episode 08: All I Want Right Now Is One More Bullet

• Lito, distraught at being cast out of his agency and feeling the backlash of being outed, is eating ice cream out of the tub, in his onesie. He cries all about his problems... to Sun, whose life has been systematically ruined since the beginning of the series. Her problems slightly outweigh his. Not that he seems to notice.
  • Gets even funnier when he mopes his way after her to Visit Nomi, and mopily reveals he can help her fake bartending skills (to crash her brother's party), while still weeping.
    Nomi: [Explaining to Amanita] It's Lito. Flair bartending.
    • Apparently Lito knows how to do this because he spent six months training with "the best bartenders in Mexico" for a movie role.

Episode 09: What Family Really Means

• At the end of Nomi's speech, she talks to Tom, her sister's fiancé, and gives him a If You Ever Do Anything to Hurt Her... line with the help of Wolfgang. His smile instantly inverts into a scared frown.

Episode 11: You Want A War?

• As he is about to be arrested by the police, Joon-Ki creates a diversion to escape by pretending he spotted his sister in the crowd... then Sun takes off her disguise, revealing to him she really is here. His Oh, Crap! is absolutely priceless.
  • Later, after having all his guards taken down by the Cluster's combined effort, he seemingly barely escapes in a car, and is relieved... only to be horrified when he sees Sun is still chasing him using Capheus' driving skills.
    Joon-Ki: Are you serious?! My sister's the fucking Terminator?!
• Sun and Riley are watching TV while Puck is going on about how in certain stories, when the man rescues the princess, he's entitled to certain rewards. Sun and Riley exchange a nonverbal "Is he serious? Oh my God he's serious." and try to ignore him until he gets too close, at which point Sun finally gets sick of him and, with a slight nod from Riley, wrenches back one of his big toes.

Episode 12: Armor Vincit Omnia.

• Lito doing his morning exercise routine to Nomi's annoyance.
  Nomi: Again?
• The team are at a safehouse when Rajan shows up, explaining he unwittingly alerted BPO to their location. They all start running out with Rajan dragged along. When they realize Neets, Hernando and Daniela are walking into a trap, the team charges in and kicks ass. Neets' reaction to seeing Nomi and Lito fighting like experts?
  Neets: Hot DAMN! I've been waiting to see that!
• The gang all start to take off but Rajan declares "I'm not going anywhere until someone tells me what the hell is going on?!" Cut to him just sitting and staring after being told what the deal is. The various faces made by the Cluster and their friends in response, ranging from "Yep, we know how crazy it sounds", to sheer hilarity at his reaction, just make it funnier.
  • Rajan's reaction as he stumbles on everyone in the house. Lito is walking around shirtless with a towel around his neck, Sun is chopping up grapefruit and holding the knife up when she spots Rajan.
  • Kala expresses surprise over Rajan being so quick to believe her. He answers her that of course he believes her, for would she really be capable of coming up with such a crazy story?
• "Nomi's not doing anything, 'til Nomi has a fucking cup of coffee."
• Lito freaking out about the others going of with Dani to buy crossaints.
  Lito: Croissant? No, no, no. I need protein. No sugar, no starch, no more carbs in the house, please. No more carbs in the house!
• Kala mixing up spices to create an intense smell, and as it fans out towards the others they cough and immediately high-tail out of the room leaving Kala alone. She stands there for a few moments before coughing herself and following the others.
• Capheus' gleeful dancing as he repaints the bus they stole.
• Lito pretending to be French, walking around with a trench coat, beret and a bag with flowers and bread sticking out. He then sicks the police on the BPO backup, calling them terrorists.
• Wolfgang connecting with Kala and helping her shoot a man, but to her husband's horror, he thinks his wife is a killer.
  • Rajan then picks up the gun to hold it out to her and asks "Can you teach me?"
  • Wolfgang then decides to humor him and as Kala, teaches Rajan the parts of the gun.
• Wolfgang's missile launcher makes a comeback.
• Sun touching Capheus' hand and he holds it out whilst muttering in awe, "The spirit of Jean-Claude."
• Felix shaking Rajans hand and Kala introduces him as her husband. Felix gives a confused glance towards Wolfgang.
  Wolfgang: It's complicated.
  • How does Rajan, Kala and Wolfgang settle the possible love triangle? They compromise with a threesome.
• The group eating pizza. Capheus looks like he's about to have an orgasm while Felix declares that if he were to have a last meal, it would be pizza.
• Puck makes a reappearance when the group arrives in Italy and his hair is now in the style of Sun's. He goes up to her and asks if she missed him. Her response is incredibly disturbed and confused.
  Sun: Oh, my god.
• Nomi's mom is at the party with them and two men wearing dresses and butterfly wings offers her a tray of brownies so she takes one. One of them tells her, "Welcome to fairyland". Turns out those brownies probably had weed in it, as later on she is happily kissing Nomi and Amanita's cheeks.
  Amanita: (confused smile) What just happened?
• Detective Mun telling Diego that he was introduced to Sun's family. Diego says that is must be serious and asks how it went. Cut to Jindo happily licking Mun's face and he's equally happy, Mun answers, "Pretty good."
• Dani tries to flirt with a man and get him to buy her a drink, when he tells her no, she walks back to Lito in shock and asks if the man was possibly gay.
• Hernando's plan to infiltrate the Forcella where Lila is holding Whispers. A Trojan Horse gambit where the cluster disguise themselves as a tour group whose bus "breaks down" in the palazzo. Cue the majority of the cluster and their friends (aside from Nomi, Amanita and Bug) acting like stereotypical tourists taking pictures with Lila's guards and generally acting completely helpless until they can pull their guns out.
• In true Sense8 fashion, the last scene of the entire show is a gratuitous slow-motion orgy. The very last shot is even of the (recently used) rainbow strap-on from the pilot.
