Line 6:
**** Perhaps because he's pretending to glance up at God and pray for Luna's soul... while maybe trying not to crack a smile.
* In the ending of "Signals and Codes":
{{quote| '''Spencer:''' You'd better bring backup. That bitch is an alien!}}
* In "Where There's Smoke", Maddie, in helping Michael and Jesse scout a bank, ends up getting caught (part of the plan) but unexpectedly ends up getting taken to the bank office where she will be arrested and taken to jail. Michael and Jesse have a freak out moment about the situation - going from "They'll know everything!" to "We have to break her out of jail!". Cue Madeline doing a [[Stealth Hi Bye]] beside their car and knocking on the window, then lighting a cigarette and demonstrating the fake tears she used to get past the bank guards.
* In "Past and Future Tense, the team is taking on a Russian wetwork team. Cue showdown:
{{quote| '''Russian:''' He's Michael Westen! There are only four of us! (Note there was originally five but the [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain]] mook was beat up and tied up for the second time in the episode)}}
** Foreshadowed as early as the pilot episode where Michael's landlord discusses the theories the KGB had regarding Mike being too dangerous to be just one man, possibly multiple agents using the same name, or even a special team; and as such something of a bogeyman.
{{quote| '''Oleg''': The real Michael Westen, yes?<br />
'''Michael''': Yeah.<br />
'''Oleg''': Back home, your story Russian intelligence tells to scare. They say you are one name for many people. Special operations team. They think one person cannot make so much problems.<br />
'''Michael''': Nope. Just me. }}
* In one episode, Madeline walks out of the room on Michael with a distinctive unimpressed toss of her head. At the end of that scene, Fiona does the exact same gesture; this freaks Michael out so much that he stares, wide-eyed, [[Aside Glance|directly at the camera]] as if asking the audience "Did that just happen? Did you see it too? Holy crap."
Line 20:
** Pretty much any of Sam's "freaked-out" expressions. Another hilarious one is his face when the boat blows up behind him and Michael in the season one finale, which is captured in glorious repeats by the credits. Michael is all intensity and focus, while Sam, played by a revered B-movie actor with absolutely nothing to lose and a fondness for overacting, pinwheels his arms and contorts his face in all sorts of hilarious ways.
* Fiona waking up Michael in "Eyes Open" by kicking him and having a familiar exchange:
{{quote| '''Michael''': Where am I?<br />
'''Fiona''': Miami. }}
* Michael protecting a federal witness from a Turkish assassin in "Center of the Storm" leads to this hilarious exchange:
{{quote| (Michael breaks into the house of the witness, punches him in the face to disarm him, and then drags him and his girlfriend into the kitchen)<br />
'''Bailey''': Who are you?!<br />
'''Michael''': I'm Michael Westen. I'm here to save you people.<br />
(The assassin bursts through the front door 5 seconds later)<br />
'''Cole''': Who are you?!<br />
'''Micahel''': I'm Michael Westen! I'm here to save these people! }}
* Maddie taking a picture of Nate and Michael in their cover [[I Ds]] fancy suits. It's funny because anyone who has had a mother knows that's exactly what they would do.
Line 34:
* The episode when Michael, essentially, pretends to be [[Satan]], by dressing as a [[Man of Wealth and Taste]] and seeming to make things [[Stuff Blowing Up|explode]] with a snap of his fingers (really, pre-rigged with C-4).
* Fiona tasering Ivan the human trafficker in season 2.
{{quote| '''Fiona''': He even asked to be tased again.<br />
'''Michael''': With a gag in his mouth?<br />
'''Fiona''': He has very expressive eyes. }}
* An episode in seaon 2 has Michael trying to escape his pursuer in a motorcycle chase. He loses them by sliding under a tractor trailer that's blocking the road. He gets back up, smiles at his pursuer (a smile that puts the trollface to shame), and drives away. Considering Michael's default personallity is the stoic, this was a nice touch.
Line 41:
* 5X03 Nate asks Mike if he's leaving for a "super-secret spy meeting". Mike makes a shushing hand gesture. "Super secret." Scene cuts to...Michael and Fiona shopping for drapes.
* Sam's deadpan reaction to Anson in "Damned If You Do":
{{quote| ''It's official. Guy's a dick.''}}
* In a season 3 episode, Maddie wins an award for being a vigilant reporter of crimes (that ''Michael'' committed), and asks him to show up to the ceremony looking nice, wearing a tie. He agonizes about it for the whole episode, torn between being nice to his mother or avoiding police scrutiny (again, she won the award for reporting ''his'' crimes!). He does eventually show up, albeit reluctantly, ''in a tie'', looking extremely uncomfortable. His mom is thankful, they reconcile again, and Maddie decides that the award is nice, but isn't important. Then:
{{quote| '''Maddie''': You can take the tie off now.<br />
'''Michael''': Oh ''thank God''. }}
* Jesse pretending to be a junkie.
