And the mushroom cloud-like [grease smudge] next to you... is the end of Muhammy al-Dracula!
'''Ackro:''' And where are we gonna get plutonium to nuke Mecca from, a DeLorean???
'''Hilo:''' [[Gosh Dang It to Heck|Snagnabbit]], that's it! If we can't find plutonium for the bomb, we'll never convince the werewolves to come out during a crescent moon!<br />
[[Are You Pondering What I'm Pondering?|Because they'll be showing]] ''[[Yogi Bear]]'' reruns if that happens!!! This completely ruins the whole plan! }}
::Hence, Hilo realizes that Ackro is right in saying that it's preposterous for bicycles in a pole barn to nuke Mecca. But his reasoning doubles as both [[Right for the Wrong Reasons]] ''and'' [[Bat Deduction]]!
Line 183:
'''Chef:''' ... Who's having butt sex?
'''Jeff:''' There's a huge ship of some kind in Earth's orbit! But why? Wait a minute: chaos theory! Chaos theory, it was first thought of in [[The Sixties]]. Sixty. That's the number of episodes they made of ''[[Punky Brewster]]'' before it was cancelled. Cancelled... Don't you see? The show is over! The aliens are cancelling Earth!
'''Jeff:''' Whoever they are, if they're receiving messages, they might be sending them, too. Wait a minute: candy bars. They usually come in a wrapper. Just like you... wrap a Christmas present.

{{quote|'''Professor Farnsworth:''' Animatronio mentioned a fountain. That's a statue of Neptune, god of water. The number of points on his trident is three, or "''tre''". [[Canis Latinicus|The "u" in his name is written like "v".]] "''Tre''", "V". "''Tre''"... Trevi! It's the Trevi Fountain! There can be no question!<br />
'''Leela:''' [[Lampshade Hanging|But, Professor]]--<br />
'''Professor Farnsworth: ''THERE CAN BE NO QUESTION!'' ''' }}
** Even better is the fact that he ignores the more obvious deduction, the Fountain of Neptune, also in Rome.
