  • The piranha scene. Turns out Eric wasn't kidding, much to Jack's horror.
  • Jack's quip while giving a Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard an unwanted ride on his go-kart. "What are you yelling for? I'm in the back!"
    • "You look like an Eskimo Pie, Grand Wizard!"
  • "Fancy? What were your boobs like before?" *Spit Take*
  • Jack and the Wonder Wheel.
  • Jack trying to quit his position, in the middle of the night while his only clothes are in the wash. This leads to the memorable sight of Richard Pryor being chased across the estate by a mob of security guards, fending them off with thrown clumps of sod, and wearing Spider-Man pyjamas.
    • The badly-dubbed lines of the guards chasing him are pretty hysterical too.
      "Prob'ly on drugs!"
    • We then cut to Jack in bed back at his house. Upon hearing a knock at the door, he sits up and gasps, "Oh my God, they've come for the pyjamas!"
  • "Why don't you come on in, Mr. Morehouse? My wife and I were about to make love, you could join in!"
  • The film has a running gag of Eric dumping some kind of glop on Jack; eventually, Jack is able to get some payback, catching it on camera, no less. Jack's childish glee over pulling off the prank is what really sells it.
  • Jack trying out Eric's boxing robot, having a good laugh at how he's too tall for the robot to hit him - just before it gets him with an accidental Groin Attack. Jack doubles over in pain, says he's okay, and then viciously smashes the bag in revenge as the robot cries foul.
  • Jack sitting in a pile of plush toys, being hugged by an enormous stuffed orangutan, bitterly telling them all that they're out of work, because from now on every kid will want one of him — "Jack Brown: The Wind-Up Asshole."
  • U.S. saying "you son of a bitch" underwater after him and Jack end up in the pool.
    • Before that is his delivery of this line, in perfect Ralph Kramden mode:
    "Whaddayou doin' here, you asshole?"
  • U.S. having to deal with many of the local's southern accents turning his name into "You Ass", including Fancy, much to his irritation.
