Obscure lines that stick in your head.

I'm finally watching season one of Prison Break, and the final line of this exchange had me rolling on the floor.

Sucre: Got a question for you, fish. What if we do all this work and the pipe is ten feet that way?

Michael: It won't be

Sucre: Have you got x-ray vision?

Michael: I calculated the drill-point coordinates, hid them in my tattoo, and projected them back onto the wall. Everything's been worked out so the image fits the right spot. It's just math.

Sucre: What if your math is wrong?

Michael: You'll drill into one of a dozen gas lines behind the wall. There will be an explosion and we'll be burned alive.

(Pause)

Sucre: But you're good at math, right?
