Happy Family (2003/4 US)
The One With The Friends (#1.15) 02/03/04 Peter Brennen (Larroquette) tells his three
children (all over 18) to remove their old toys and books from the garage
(he's gathered them all up and put them in the center of the garage).
After children gather in the garage, the eldest, Todd (Davis) as he lifts a
book up, asks the youngest, Tim (Francavilla), if he wants to throw out his
geometry book from Jr High School. Tim jumps to attention and says that
he doesn't want to get rid of if because he drew a flip book of Star Wars (a
lightsaber battle) on the page corners. His Star Wars flip book is
rather unusual and as his sister, Maggie (Gibney), takes a look at it with a
rather disturbed look on her face (it's pornographically illustrated) and asks
Tim if he knew that Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia were brother and sister
when he drew it.
Heroes (US 2006) -

Captain's Log: Stardate 1764.3 - Mudslide. I want to
apologize to everyone. I've done something that I am very ashamed of.
I've broken the cardinal rule of being a superhero. I've used my
powers for personal gain. I cheated at Las Vegas. It was very
unhero-like.
Now I know why I was sent to Las Vegas by the comic book. This was a test. A test to see if I can resist the temptation to be corrupted. I've failed my first test. I'm sorry to have let you down. I've been tempted to the Dark Side. ＿|￣|○ I just hope Karma strikes back at me quick, so I'll be forgiven for my sins. Then I can reset and continue with my mission to save the world.... Captain's Log: Stardate 1760.1 - Vegas!- We made it. やったー！ \(^o^)/ Hello, Las Vegas! Looks like we're going to the Montecito Hotel. Captain's Log: Stardate 1759.9 - MPG The Nissan Versa sure has some nice MPG. Gotta love that Nissan Versa. Captain's Log: Stardate 1759.6 - Ando-kun. Hiro hits Ando-kun for 53 damage. 19 blocked. Captain's Log: Stardate 1759.4 - Directions?! - I think we're lost. Good at human-cyborg relations, bad at driving. Good thing the highways are free in America. He should just let me drive. Captain's Log: Stardate 1759.3 - Hi again... Hiro crits potato chip bag for 182 damage. Captain's Log: Stardate 1759.1 - Check in...again...So many Denny's Captain's Log: Stardate 1758.9 - Checking in... Uncle Owen? Aunt Beru?

there. MARK: it
looks old TIM: Oh,
it's not old, it's, it's experienced! This is the Yoda of my tool bench,
right here! Yeah! It's been in my family almost 20 years. My dad gave it
to me, and someday, I'm gonna give it to you. (Tim puts the wrench down)

Data. BOBBIE (to Brent): You listen to me, Mr. Roboto, Michael is
a fan, and if he wants you to be Data, then you be Data. If he wants you
to be R2D2 then I wan to hear "Blippity-blop-sqwuark!" ...I'm gonna
give you boys a chance to talk. (To Michael) One day, you'll return the
