This is what I thought!
And now, I don't get it at all.

You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Did Tom Tom pay off in any further way? That seemed to be a lot of work for a pretty obscured punchline.
I thought the joke was cute, and I got it when he said his name, but clearly it went over some people's heads. It was pretty random and pointless, though.
And now, I don't get it at all.
TomTom is a popular GPS.

OK, I have finally seen the first Orphan Black. I would be marathoning the rest if I didn't have GoT and Mad Men to watch tonight. Good stuff.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Wow, that's a long way to go for a joke (re: Tom Tom). Fun episode, though. I think I might love Jenny the best.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Although when she really should have been shrieking at them, when the house fills with weird stuff right after they do a strange ritual with her, does she call them?
In fairness, I presume she was about to call someone when she dropped her phone into the bottomless pit in the living room.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think I might love Jenny the best.
Yeah, I love Jenny. Love her kick-ass ass-kicking outfit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
