* Kuzco to Pacha in ''[[The Emperor's New Groove|The Emperors New Groove]]'', after Chicha hits him with a frying pan:

* In the football movie ''[[Little Giants]],'' a kid gets tackled, and mumbles "Did I pass the spelling test?" before losing consciousness.

* In ''[[Space Jam]]'', after getting knocked for a loop during the Big Game, Daffy Duck clings to one of the Monstars and babbles "But Mommy, I don't want to go to school today! I want to stay home and bake cookies with you."

Line 66:

* In ''[[Fern Gully]]'', Batty (the PTSD bat played by [[Robin Williams]]) is ranting against humans when Zack touches his brain implant. He gets a jolt of electricity and says "Price check on prune juice, Bob -- price check on prune juice." Then he's out. In fact, this is a [[Running Gag]] in the movie. It becomes a plot point, during the [[Final Boss|Final Boss battle,]] he starts to get basic cable, and Zack flicks through until he gets [[Hamburger Hill]].

* ''[[A Kid in King Arthur's Court]]'':

{{quote|'''Calvin:''' "Sir Kane! How many fingers am I holding up?"

{{quote| '''Bob:''' Is this... Heaven?~~ ~~

{{quote|'''Bob:''' Is this... Heaven?

'''Mr. Asparagus:''' Smells like... Wisconsin! }}

** Not so random: that line is probably an allusion to a scene from ''Field of Dreams'':

{{quote| ''Is this heaven?''~~ ~~

{{quote|''Is this heaven?''

''No, it's Iowa.'' }}

** The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3z8i7ALYTmc "outtakes"] include alternate versions of this scene with even-more-random lines.

Line 78:

** Though it's hardly a non sequitur in context - more like a [[Catch Phrase]].

* ''[[Scary Movie|Scary Movie 4]]'' While attempting to save their van from a mob, Tom gets socked in the jaw.

* Q in ''[[Tower of Terror]]'', after he receives a shock.

* ''[[The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother|The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes Smarter Brother]]''. After receiving a (giant) [[Groin Attack|boot to the groin]], Moriarty's unnamed assistant (Roy Kinnear) calls out "Oh taxi!" and collapses.

* In ''[[Silent Movie (film)|Silent Movie]]'' when the studio chief falls victim to an unexpected [[Slapstick]] gag, he responds with "Who am I? Where am I? Who ordered the veal cutlet?"

Line 90:

** In [[Babes in Toyland]], the villain konks Stan over the head... Stan looks confused, turns to Ollie, and says "Did he hit me?" Ollie nods, and Stan collapses.

* Averted in ''[[Star Trek III: The Search For Spock]]'' where Dr. Mccoy was suffering from a Vulcan mind meld. Mccoy was fine during incarceration, but could slip into Spock-mode at any given moment.

{{quote| '''Kirk:''' How many fingers am I holding up? (while making the Vulcan salute)~~ ~~

Line 96:

* Happens in a chapter of one of [[Tamora Pierce]]'s ''[[Tortall Universe|Protector of the Small]]'' books, appropriately titled 'Tilt Silly.' Kel received a massive blow while tilting and winds up giggling to her former, stern training master.

{{quote|'''Kel:''' I know, my lord. You wish I were a boy. But being a girl is more fun. More fun-er? Is that right?

'''Wyldon:''' Go lie down, Mindelan. You're tilt-silly. }}

* In nearly every one of the ''[[Encyclopedia Brown]]'' childrens' books, the tale of Encyclopedia's sidekick, Sally Kimball, pounding some sense into bully [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Bugs Meany]], leaving him muttering "deal the cards." However, ''Encyclopedia Brown Lends A Hand'' has it that she left him "muttering about the price of yo-yos in China."

Line 103:

* In the seventh book, ''[[Captain Underpants]]'' lands on his head. When Harold and George rush to his side to see if he's okay, he mutters "Mommy, my train went swimming in the piano."

* Tobias smacks into a window during a mission in one ''[[Animorphs]]'' book. The rest of the mission is interspersed with his random comments about ''[[Clue (game)|Clue]].''

{{quote| '''Tobias:''' "Miss Scarlet? Was it Miss Scarlet with the plum in the professor?"}}

{{quote|'''Tobias:''' "Miss Scarlet? Was it Miss Scarlet with the plum in the professor?"}}

* In the ''[[Star Trek: New Frontier]]'' novel "Martyr", Commander Shelby had just been badly injured in a planetside attack, but she's well enough to take over command in a fight. After a crazy (but ingenious) plan to use the local star as a deadly weapon, she congratulates everyone, then stops and yells "Oh look! The colors!" before passing out again.

** In ''Imzadi II,'' written by the same author, who is one of the creators of [[Space Cases]], Lwaxana is stuck and delivers the quote below from that show.

Line 117:

* In ''[[Hogan's Heroes]]'', a scheme to rescue Tiger from the Gestapo nearly goes bad when the Russian man they have playing Himmler hits his head on a pipe and collapses. He abruptly sits up a moment later, salutes, and says, "Long live our glorious leader, the Czar!" before passing out again.

* In ''[[Doctor Who]]'', physical trauma (especially post-regenerative stress) often causes the Doctor to get mixed up and refer to former companions and adventures.

{{quote|I've got something to say... something I have to tell you... something important, what was it? No hold on, hold on, hold on... Oh! I know! Merry Christmas! *thud*}}

** {{spoiler|Flesh!}}Eleven in The Almost People utters a few catchphrases of previous doctors, in their original voices. He also gets them a bit confused

* Lester in ''[[Beakman's World]]'', far to many times to count. Sometimes he even ''initiates'' the [[Amusing Injuries|amusing injury]] that leads to the thud. For example, hitting himself with a gavel, then yelling "Sustained!" ''Thud!''

* In the ''[[Married... with Children]]'' episode ''Cheese, Cues and Blood'', Al sells all of his blood to 9 blood banks in order to pay a man because Kelly has started working at the bar, shooting pool. Al spouted much nonsense throughout the rest of the episode, and at one point, Jefferson mentions that the former air-guitared to ''It's a Small World''.

* The android Kryten from ''[[Red Dwarf]]'' has suffered a couple of these. In "White Hole", after being used as a battering ram, he responds "I'm fine thank you, Susan" when Lister asks if he's all right. Later, in ''Quarantine'', he gets a fire-axe embedded in his back, causing him to spout gibberish and ram his head into a convenient pillar in order to fix it:

{{quote| '''Kryten:''' ''(gibberish)'' Two and one-half badgers, please -- ''(gibberish)'' ...No, that's all right, I'll eat them here. -- ''(gibberish, bangs his head on the pillar)'' ...Ah, that's better. Now I can '''''win self-determination for the South Maldivian people!!''' (additional spluttering and gibberish, bangs his head on the post again)''}}

Now I can '''''win self-determination for the South Maldivian people!!''' (additional spluttering and gibberish, bangs his head on the post again)''}}

* In ''[[The X-Files]]'' episode "Bad Blood," a drugged Mulder briefly regains consciousness and sings a fragment of the theme from ''Shaft''. At least, [[The Rashomon|that's what Scully claims.]]

** What really sells this is Mulder's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKciFkoykYA reaction].

* In an early episode of ''[[The A-Team]]'', Face takes one to the... well, face. When Hannibal asks how many fingers he's holding up, the bleary commando volunteers "Gargh... Blue... TREE!"

* Effy in ''[[Skins]]'', immediately upon being shot up with an overdose of (probably) heroin:

{{quote| "Sometimes I think I was born backwards, you know, came out my mum the wrong way... I hear words go past me backwards. The people I should love, I hate, and the people I hate --" *falls over*}}

{{quote|"Sometimes I think I was born backwards, you know, came out my mum the wrong way... I hear words go past me backwards. The people I should love, I hate, and the people I hate --" *falls over*}}

* A non-cranial injury version of this trope occurred during the ''[[Babylon 5]]'' episode "Parliament of Dreams", in which Londo Mollari spouts a bunch of nonsense and collapses, being utterly smashed. The scene is also an ''epic'' [[Chewing the Scenery]] moment for the Centauri ambassador.

{{quote| '''Londo:''' *To Delenn* Have I ever told you, that you are ''very'' cute for a Minbari? *To Garibaldi* And [[Ho Yay|you are cute too]], in an annoying sort of way. ''Everybody'''s cute. Everybody's cute! Even me... But in purple, I am ''stunning''! *Thud*

'''Vir:''' Ah! He has become one with his inner self!

'''Garibaldi:''' He's passed out.

Line 142:

* On ''[[Home Improvement]]'', Tim Taylor often said "We'll be right back after these messages from Binford" (or some mangling thereof) right before passing out or when awakened, even when not on the set of [[Show Within a Show|Tool Time]].

* On ''[[Space Cases]]'', the android Thelma has been sent over to retrieve a data crystal from another ship with automated defenses, which have fired at her. When the crew expresses the desire to examine it...

* A scene-long one occurs on ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]'' when Rodney returns to Atlantis {{spoiler|hopped up on the Wraith enzyme.}} His rant is long and confusing, especially for Weir, who doesn't know any of the context. This quickly turns into a [[Funny Aneurysm Moment]] when it's later revealed that he's in serious danger.

* ''[[Firefly]]'', after [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAGtq7XktnY Jayne is drugged]:

* On the [[Discovery Channel]] documentary ''Two Weeks In Hell'', a would-be Green Beret became disoriented during an exercise. When asked if he knew where he was, his answer was "Hash browns?" at which point they wisely stuck him in a truck going back to the base's medical station.

* In the first episode of ''[[Black Books]]'', Manny accidentally swallows the Little Book of Calm and spends the rest of the day as a Jesus-figure spouting extracts from the book at anyone who'll listen. When he gets punched in the face by a skinhead he jumbles them up;

* ''[[Glee]]'': April tricks Kurt into drinking cough syrup containing alcohol. When Emma questions him about it, he stares at her and says "Oh, [[Bambi]]... [http://vimeo.com/7768835 I cried so hard when those hunters shot your mommy!]" before throwing up on her shoes. It doesn't help that Emma ''does'' [[Deer in the Headlights|look like a scared deer most of the time]].

Line 160:

* In one episode of ''[[Seinfeld]]'', Kramer gets kicked in the head by Crazy Joe Davola. He happened to be wearing a helmet at the time, but still ended up with a concussion. The next time we see him, he has one pant leg on, only shaved the right side of his face, and is completely unaware of both. The first real non-sequitur however, is when he yells "YO-YO MA!" in mid-conversation with Jerry and George. After that he answers the phone speaking [[Gratuitous Italian|Italian-sounding gibberish]].

* In an episode of ''Victorious'', Tori ends up becoming extremely woozy after giving too much blood, and while trying to perform in the school play ends up speaking gibberish while trying to speak her lines.

{{quote| '''Tori''': And so I'm not a captain... I'm a... pretty little salmon... (''thud'')}}

{{quote|'''Tori''': And so I'm not a captain... I'm a... pretty little salmon... (''thud'')}}

* In one episode of ''[[WKRP in Cincinnati]]'', Andy Travis gets his by some flying debris and is knocked unconscious. The first thing he says to anyone when they bring him around is, "Has anyone seen my dog?" Andy doesn't have a dog.

Line 178:

** Although it's not precisely a [[Non Sequitur Thud]], he can ask the same question later on, to be informed that his mother is a duck (yes, another ''Loom'' reference). In fact, Guybrush exhibits a marked tendency to rattle off some distinctly nonsensical crap whether he's got a concussion or not.

** ''[[Tales of Monkey Island]]'', shortly before {{spoiler|Guybrush dies from a sword to the gut}}:

* The "[[Xylophone Gag|Exploding piano]]" minigame in the ''[[Duck Amuck]]'' [[Looney Tunes]] game has Daffy say a different [[Non Sequitur Thud]] every time the piano explodes, including "No more for me thanks, I'm driving" from ''Rabbit Seasoning'' below. Others include "And I say he ''does'' have to shoot me now" (from the [[Duck Season! Rabbit Season!]] sequence in the same cartoon); "There are ''four'' lights" (a [[Shout-Out]] to ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'') and the ever popular "[[Check, Please!]]".

* In ''[[Psychonauts]]'', the [[Comically Serious]] Sasha Nein has the misfortune of being clonked on the head by one of his own [[Ghost in the Machine|Censors]], who believe him to be a dangerous thought. He mumbles dazedly every time he gets clobbered.

* From ''[[Mother 3]]'', just before a ([[Nightmare Fuel|rather unnaturally terrifying]]) maid robot explodes in a small mushroom cloud. The gibberish it spouts in full:

* In ''[[Marathon Infinity]]'' when {{spoiler|you deactivate Durandal in the level Hang Brain}} there are some mighty gibberish when you read one of the computer terminals. Go [http://marathon.bungie.org/story/hangbrain.html here] and scroll down to "Hang Brain (Terminal 1: 1st Message)" to read it.

* ''[[Metal Gear Solid]] 2'' gives us the {{spoiler|malfunctioning Robo-Colonel}} and the infamous line "I need scissors, 61!"

** The full line is one of the weirdest things ever heard.

{{quote| I hear it's amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hara-kiri Rock. I need scissors! 61!}}

* After being short-circuited by [[Villainous Harlequin]] Dimentio, malfunctioning mechanical dragon Fracktail from [[Super Paper Mario]] tries to reboot his system. It doesn't work out so well:

** It also appears to be a rather beautiful [[Take That]] aimed at Nintendo's competitor Microsoft.

* In ''[[Beyond Good & Evil (video game)|Beyond Good and Evil]]'', when you first return to IRIS HQ with Double H, he tries to deliver a report of his findings...after spending several days in what appears to be some kind of torture device and in such desperate need of medical attention that you've been given a time limit of less than five minutes. He almost gets there, but rapidly degrades into incoherence before crashing ''through'' a banister onto the couch next to the stairs.

Line 198:

* An odd example: In many games featuring [[Deadpool]], such as ''[[Marvel Ultimate Alliance]]'' or ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom]]'' upon being taken out the mouthy merc will issue what would seem non-sequiturs to the other characters but make perfect sense to the player by [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]], such as "You pressed the wrong button!"

** His [[MUGEN]] incarnation does the same thing.

Line 205:

** Hard to say for sure, but it may be a shout-out to ''[[Weebl and Bob]]''.

* In Episode 79 of [[Bonus Stage (web animation)|Bonus Stage]], Phil gets his ass kicked by the new villain. When the equally-battered Joel checks on him, we get treated to...[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTgCzPTyPlg The Bacon Man Song.]

** Given a slight twist in another comic, where Fighter has a knife in his head. Black Mage flicks it one direction, and Fighter starts singing the theme song to the old ''[[Captain America]]'' cartoon. BM comments to Thief that if you move it the other way, he does the [[Spider-Man]] theme.

Line 232:

* In ''[[Three Panel Soul]]'': "Jes, get your damn oatmeal off me!"

* An absolutely ''epic'' one occurs in ''[[No Need for Bushido]]''[http://noneedforbushido.com/2006/comic/213/ when Ken attempts to fight the Wu Tang brothers]. After being disarmed, Ken gets the crap kicked out of him by the kung-fu brothers, but keeps coming back for more. At first it looks like he's still going to be powered by [[Unstoppable Rage]] after getting knocked through two buildings by the brothers, but it turns out he's finally had enough.

Bugs suggests that Daffy should act as a decoy, and Daffy mumbles, dazedly "No more for me thanks, I'm driving" before falling unconscious.

** ''Stupor Duck'': Daffy (as a [[Superman]] [[Expy]]) thinks a mad bomber has just knocked a building down and puts it bck-- not realizing it was slated for demolition.

** In one Wile E. Coyote/Roadrunner cartoon, after the Coyote has been hit by a falling piano, he gets up with a mouth full of piano key "teeth" on which he is able to play a couple of bars of Taps before collapsing.

** Putting the two together, in "Operation: Rabbit" (a rare Bugs vs. Wile E. pairing), at the start, Wile E. erects a door in front of Bugs's hole to declare his intent to eat him. After spending the episode trying and getting clobbered and blown up, he has just enough energy and sanity to repeat the erect-the-door routine. This time, when Bugs answers, Wile E. goes, "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Mud." Only ''then'' does he collapse.

** In "Russian Rhapsody" after the gremlins sabotage Hitler's plane and they drop it on top of him, after they sing a song he pops up out of the ground laughing and says in a goofy voice "Nazies is the cwaziest peoples".

** Not quite played straight in "[[Duck Amuck]]", because it actually makes sense, [[It Makes Just As Much Sense in Context|but not within the context]]: Daffy quotes Longfellow's ''The Village Blacksmith'' after the artist turns his parachute into an anvil.

{{quote|Ed, after being hog-tied by Eddy in ''An Ed In The Bush'': It's a long ball, coach!}}

** In fact, many of Ed's lines are non sequiturs since he has the attention span of buttered toast, wandering off into his own thoughts and coming back to reality to say something off-the-wall.

** Edd, after being in Eddy's Brother's bed-fridge in ''O-Ed Eleven'':

** Eddy has more of those, often mention his granddad.

** Jimmy, after Jonny's house collapses in ''Rent-A-Ed'': Rubber baby buggy bumpers.

** Nazz only got one in ''High Heeled Ed'' after a fence fell on top of her. All she did after that was laugh.

Tasty waffles with lots of syrup!" Cue a scene of Wall Street traders shouting "waffles!" and then, oddly, Japanese traders going crazy screaming "Waffur!".

* Probably one of the few serious examples in the ''[[King of the Hill]]'' episode "Peggy Hill: The Decline and Fall" when Peggy's parachute fails to open and crashes into a field many feet below. Ehen Hank finds her she deliriously says "Hey hey hey, I'm fine!" before passing out.

* ''[[Transformers Prime]]'' has a lot of fun with this trope and Agent Fowler when he gets incapacitated. It's happened twice so far, and shows every sign of becoming a running gag.
