Adam

Killer quicksand. Is that why I'm standing here in this stupid pith helmet?

No, you're standing there in that stupid pith helmet because you're an idiot.

Adam

Its funny, because if you asked me to pick out what you would think of as your traditional, y'know, "movie-type" hay, I would point to the straw.

Traditional "movie hay?"

Adam

Yeah, y'know, like the people are always getting stuck in a hay bale or rolling in the hay, or whatever they do in the movies? Thats what I would think of as hay.

Having a roll in the hay with your girlfriend?

Adam

Yeah... don't get all red-faced.

Adam

I can see the cut now, "Hey! We'll be drinking mimosas in an hour or two."...

Adam

[in a flashback clip] We'll be, like, sipping mimosas on the beach...

Adam

...Cut to, "6 hours later, Adam's team is still going at it."

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

6 hours later, Adam's team is still going at it.

Adam

"They've found two needles..."

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

They've found two needles...

Adam

"But still have the smallest needle and the bone needle to go."

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

But still have the smallest needle and the bone needle to go.

Adam

This is adding some magnets to the front end of our feed trough. These are super strong neodymium magnets. And see if we can't pick the needle out at the very beginning.

You just had your finger on it!

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

Good idea. Jamie thought of it ages ago.

[From the recording] If you were in college, you'd be a freshman!

Adam

You called the plant a freshman?

[embarrassed] I... I was running out of material!!!

Kind of makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, don't it?

Adam

If you mean it makes me feel like I feel about the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus, yeah, that kind of warm and fuzzy, cause it's a FANTASY!

[The MythBusters are about to subject a ballistics gel bust of Adam to a custom-made razor-sharp ceiling fan.]

Adam

As long as you're going to do it with me, let's make sure everyone knows who it is.

[Adam then puts his glasses onto the bust.]

Adam

You'll have to tell me how it turns out 'cause I can't see a damned thing.

[Points to the bust.] Judging by the Coke bottles on this thing, he can't see a thing either

Adam

Absolutely, and so probably some human cranium, we've done this before when we did Penny Drop..

Human cranium? We have human cranium?

Adam

I have the human cranium in storage, yep.

You would!

Adam

We have one of everything here at MythBusters.

Did I ever tell you that I worked as a concrete inspector for several months up in Seattle?

Adam

Was this before or after you were the big animal veterinarian for the circus?

No, I never did that. You must be mistaken.
