Line 11:
* "Must go faster! Must go faster!" ---- "Elvis has left the building!" ---- "Didn't I promise you fireworks??"

** He follows up this epic speech with [[President Action|jumping into an F/A-18 to dogfight aliens]].
* Julius telling Nimziki off for chewing David out, reminding him that his son's the only reason they're still breathing.
