Just finished Season 3, for some reason ending with E3 "The Movement." This made me laugh harder than anything I can remember, no exaggeration. (SPOILERS!) Specifically when Jack makes his television appearances and finally arrives at this glorious moment:
"I was working with a jungle child, his name was Dendy, he was a great inspiration for me. And uh, unfortunately, tragically, he died when baboons kidnapped and ate him. It was actually one of the worst days of my life."
I was laughing so hard I had to pause the show for a minute to recover. It's his delivery — the absolute sincerity and confidence — that sells it.
In general I think this episode might have more classic moments than any other in Season 3.
- "A jungle child is what?" / "Jungle child are children that live in the jungle."
- "Never stepped foot in the gym in my entire life. I got this body by simply just moving boxes and furniture."
- "The candles flickered, the sheets were still, but all the energy in the room surrounded Roman and Kenzie. Kenzie stepped forth and gently touched Roman’s arm. He suddenly felt weak, and trembled, and fell, as if his Achilles heel had been struck by a blade, but all it was was simply a woman’s touch."
- "Jack can go on the news, lie to everyone in America, and you'll get a fresh batch of people..."
- That wig and beard reveal. Oh my God.
- "We do too much for our children."
