Frame-Up/Quotes

"Poldarn: Now then, if it wasn't us, who was it? Chiruwa: But it was us. It was you, you bloodthirsty northern bastard. Poldarn: No it wasn't, we were never here. But they will never believe that, so it better have been someone else. Do you understand that?"

- Poldarn attempts to get the trope across to Chiruwa, in Memory by K.J. Parker.

"Bart: (outraged) WAIT A MINUTE! YOU DID THIS! Sideshow Bob: I beg your pardon? Bart: (As he grabs the microphone away from Sideshow Bob) ATTENTION, FELLOW CHILDREN! KRUSTY DID NOT ARM-ROB THAT STORE, SIDESHOW BOB FRAMED HIM! AND I GOT PROOF! (Uses the comedy mallet to hit the end of his feet) Sideshow Bob: OW, MY FOOT, YOU LOUSY, STUPID, CLUMSY...! (The kids are shocked to fin out that he was the armed robber) Bart: See that? Krusty wore big floppy shoes all the time, but he's got little feet like all good-hearted people. (Bart hits Sideshow Bob's other feet with the comedy mallet) Bart: But Sideshow Bob really filled his shoes with big, ugly feet! (The kids in the audience are now very angry at Sideshow Bob for what he did to Krusty) (At the Springfield Police Station as they are watching it on TV) Eddie: The kid's right! Lou: How do we suppose we missed that one? Cheif Wiggims: Get off your duffs, boys! Get down to that studio! (Scene changes to the outside of the studio) Sideshow Bob: (In handcuffs) Yes, I admit it, I hated him! His hackneyed shennanigans robbed me of my dignity for years. I played the buffoon, while he squandered a fortune on his vulgar appetites. That's why I framed Krusty! And I would've gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for these meddling kids! Bart: Take him away, Boys! Sideshow Bob: (as he is being sent to jail, via the Police Station Wagon) TREAT KIDS AS EQUALS, THEY'RE PEOPLE TOO! THEY'RE SMARTER THAN YOU THINK! THEY'RE SMART ENOUGH TO CATCH ME! (The Police Station Wagon siren sounds)"
