S1 E15Unfinished Business

(Referring to their lack of success in cutting the pig in half) Can we get a sword?

(laughs) Meat cleaver?

RLRob Lee (US Narrator)

The voice of an angel rings out...

(yells at full volume) TORY!

...or maybe, make that the devil.

[Tory swings again, but the hammer slips out of his hand and hits Grant]

Perfect. I'll tell you what. Um, all we need is to get him up to 120 mph. That's a human's terminal velocity; we know that from umpteen myths we've done about people falling.

Well, OK, considering we're going to be blowing up a sheet of glass, it's probably a good idea to, uh, give ourselves a little bit of protection.
