[Adam is eating crackers with limburger cheese on them.]

You know, my eyes are watering being in the vincinity of these three items. I think I need an official umm... Tester. So while you continue chewing. [Adam nods] Grant Imahara, I need your nose!

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

Dead man walking...

[The MythBusters have just inflated a football until it burst. Afterwards, Adam puts it on his head.]

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

So there's your answer. At 110 PSI you'll lose a football, but gain a hat.

What are you doing?

I put everything on my head.

I think Jamie's just going to be like [mimicking Jamie's impending crawl up an air duct with magnets] "CHUNG!" "CHUNG!" "CHUNG!" And I believe, in a security manual, the proper response to that sound coming from your duct is to just riddle your duct with bullets.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

With Grant and Kari heading up security, bullet riddling is unlikely. But with Tory...you never know.

[There is a loud clang as Jamie begins noisily climbing the duct]

[laughing] Why, Thor, the god of thunder, is trying to enter my building!

[There is another clang as Jamie continues climbing the duct. Adam laughs again]

Somebody needs to check that air conditioner!

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

[as Jamie continues] Here's some key phrases from the surreptitious entry heist manual: Be the breeze [clang] As light as a feather [clang] The foot fall of a kitten. [clang]

[Jamie has mixed some cardboard in the blender, and tasted the result.]

Kinda reminds me of high school, for some reason.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

Ah, Jamie's school days. Playing football, growing facial hair, and drinking cardboard

[Adam has thrown up after being spun around in a whirlpool.]

JJess

Urgh - smells like pizza.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

Welcome to the team, Jess.

[Adam has made a nozzle on the lathe that looks remarkably like a lightsaber handle.]

...I did what any boy would make—uh, what am I allowed to call it, a plasma sword?—except, instead of a limited beam of pure plasma, it's soda!

[Adam pretends he is fighting with the nozzle as if it is a lightsaber.]

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

Not so much Yoda, but soda.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

Adam, for reasons known only to himself, puts a bottle of cola on Jamie's lathe.

[The bottle unscrews and comes out of the lathe, spilling everywhere. Adam laughs.]

[to camera] Okay, this'll be our little secret.

And now we're going to see if we can shake this bridge apart.

RLRob Lee

Uh, hold on Adam...

[in a flashback clip] I promise that if this works, we'll use this power only for good.

RLRob Lee

Yeah, right Adam.

RLRob Lee

Keen-eyed observers will note that the guys are actually standing on the bridge they're trying to destroy. Confidence in Tesla's machine isn't exactly sky high.

Neither Jamie or I give a high percentage of anything actually occurring out here, nonetheless MythBusters is nothing if not a compendium of ways in which Jamie and I have been wrong.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

The voice of an angel rings out...

(yells at full volume) TORY!

RLRob Lee

...or maybe, make that the devil.

That was a good one, Kari. Now I know what it would be like to be married to you.

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

...there's a chance that maybe Adam will let [Jamie] forget about it.

[imitating Jamie] It's not about winning or losing, it's about proving the concept. [normal voice, slightly giddy] But I won!!!

RLRob Lee

...But unlikely.
