South Park Quote
[Stan performing as a psychic]
Stan: Ok, listen to me. Listen *very* carefully. This is a *trick* that I am doing. Ok? Watch. All I'm going to do is say a name that I'm gonna pick at random, ok? [pause]
Stan: They want me to acknowledge... Pete or Peter.
Woman: Yes. Yes, my Peter. [Woman cries and audiance applauds]
Stan: No. Stop clapping. All I did was pick a name at random and wait for somebody in the audiance to give a response. Now that I see a that there is a lone woman in the audiance *crying*, my instinct tells me Peter was her husband. So I say, "Peter was your husband?"
Woman: Yes, yes, yes. My husband, Peter. [Audience applauds]
Stan: STOP IT. I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.
Man: You knew Peter was dead.
Stan: I didn't start by saying Peter is dead, I start by saying, "They want me to acknowledge Peter." That could have meant that Peter was in the audience or that Peter was somebody's friend or that Peter had died I couldn't be wrong. See? Now, I can look at this woman and can see that she is fairly young so odds are that her husband was fairly young when he died. So I can say something like, "I'm getting that Peter's death was very untimely."
Woman: [sobbing] Yes, it was. [Audiance applauds]
Man: Amazing.
Woman: Ask Peter if he knows my little Billy.
Stan: ...Ok... lets back up. [Audiance takes a step back]
Stan: NOT LITERALLY.
