Black Helmet Man[edit]
- (tripping over a box) Oop! There goes my trick knee.
- Now Loke, you shall learn the truth: I am your mother! [Rips off suit to reveal pink dress] Now Momma's gonna teach you a lesson in manners! [Han Duet shoots Black Helmet Man, saving Loke, and making Black Helmet Man fly off into space] Wait till your Father gets hooooooooome!
- :Black Helmet Man: Any other questions?
- British Council Member: I have a question, why do we all speak in British accents when we're from outer space and there's no Britain?
(Black Helmet Man pops British Council Member's head off)
