• In "L'ivresse" ("Drunkenness"), a Book II episode, we're shown some of the main characters drunk. Starts with Bohort calmly suggesting they kick the crap out of a rival clan chief, and tops it with Perceval passed out on a tavern table suddenly raising his head and shouting "Independent Wales!" at the top of his lungs.
• The Ankou showing up in the middle of the night to take the body of a recently dead servant, and ending up drinking "one more for the road" with Arthur.
• Arthur finding out that Perceval is alive after hearing he died. "But you're not dead, you bastard?!"
• Any episode with Merlin is bound to have one of those.
• EVERY. SINGLE. THING. The burgund king has ever said or done. Especially when he starts singing.
• The taunts used by the Weaponmaster are so deliciously gross, they all belong in there. Here's a few examples:
  • "Come on, on guard, sweetheart! I'm gonna cut the fat out of your ass, that's one thing you won't have to carry any more!"
  • "Buck up, pumpkin ! you're gonna get your ding-a-ling sharpened to a point!"
  • "On guard, you old balding whore!"
• "La Quinte Juste": "The next person I catch whistling a pagan interval, I'M REPORTING HIM TO THE POPE!!!"
• Anytime Father Blaise loses his temper, really.

Father Blaise: (reading a book to Karadoc) The respective wives, should be presented... (cue Karadoc sleeping, starting to snore) Father Blaise: ... Ho! Karadoc: (wakes up) Huh ? Father Blaise: Say, are you bloody kidding me?? Since this morning, you've been busting my prunes because you wanted me to read this to you, and now you're sleeping??

• In Livre VI, Lucius Sallustius, while not exactly as harmless as Father Blaise, is quite a short-tempered serious man himself.

(exiting his office building with his right-hand man, after a fight with some senators) Sallustius: (twitching and stuttering) LAST SEASON FOR THE MORONS!!! Get the tools, we move on from negotiation to disintegration. Capito: The four of them, at one stroke?? Sallustius: At one stroke. Collective ass-kicking. Capito: Wouldn't it be a bit obvious? Sallustius: I don't give a damn. You can crucify them on the forum, if you want; I will pay the orchestra.

• Léodagan, thanks to the marvelously deadpan delivery of his actor, can have some of the funniest lines -- on the condition that you appreciate Black Humor. Especially during his spats of Tranquil Fury.
  • The one most rolling-in-the-floor-in-laughter-worthy time: after being kept awake for hours by Yvain and Arthur playing the luth, Léodagan comes in and, deceptively calm, describes how he's about to start putting things on fire -- maybe the whole castle while he's at it.

Léodagan: Even the furnitures! Doesn't scare me.

• • There is also the one time when, following rumors of the death of the king and queen of Carmélide, they discover that the culprit is Yvain and his (latest) poor choice of a nom de guerre. Cue Léodagan threatening his son with a crossbow, Arthur (with a small wooden shield) and Father Blaise bodily protecting the young knight, while Séli (half-heartedly) tries to reason her husband. Father Blaise explains that they'll produce a disclaimer... but can't help adding that the news won't make everybody happy. Fade to black, and there's the sound of a bolt hitting wood.
  • Also, you won't see many scenes with both Leodagan and Loth before Livre VI. But when there is one...

Leodagan: (completely deadpan) Tell me, aren't you supposed to be under house arrest, you very big pile of dung?
