His riddle was "What does a man do standing up, a woman sitting down, and a dog on three legs?" The answer is {{spoiler|shake hands}}.<ref>This is a reference to the induction ceremony for the [[wikipedia:Ancient Order of Turtles|Turtle Club]], a real-life [[Brotherhood of Funny Hats]], where the inductee is given a series of supposedly lewd riddles and has to give the correct, family-friendly answer to each one.</ref>
