Infinite Improbability : The Quantum Heresy

Milkman: 
Now Then, Madam - 
I'm going to show you three numbers, 
and I want you to tell me if you see any similarity between them. 

(holds up a card saying '3' three times)

Lady: 
They're all number three.

Milkman: 
No. Try again.

Lady: 
They're all number three?

Milkman: 
No, They're all number three. 

(he ticks his board again)


...number NIINE, number NINE, number NINE ...

 

RIMMER: 

Holly, what's going on?

HOLLY: 

What?

RIMMER: 

What's happening?

HOLLY: 

Um, Hercule Poirot's just stepped off the steaming train.  

And if you want my opinion, I think they all did it.

 
RIMMER: 

Why did we have to have you as the ship's computer?  

We'd be better off with a bucket of sheep's slop running things.
 

HOLLY: 

If you've got a complaint, just come straight out with it.  

Don't hide behind innuendo and hyperbole.
 

RIMMER: 

Why is it raining fish in our sleeping quarters?!

HOLLY: 

I'd be lying if I said I knew.  

The only comparable incident on record 

is in 12th century Burgandy 

when it rained herring.
