One in five?
I realized I have Case #39 from NetFlix. I think he's in that, which I hope cancels out Miss Squinty.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It was his character's turning moment in Alias. He'd been the guy who knew less than the audience, and was kind of a doof. Then he gets captured by a baddy, and he's been tortured, and he's being injected with this stuff that has a one in five chance of killing him. He manages to get free, and turns the tables on his captors and injects him with the solution, yelling "ONE IN FIVE, BITCH! ONE IN FIVE!"
And from then on he was with the program, and Will Tippen was cool.

I guess I've revealed I didn't watch Alias.
He's been in way more stuff than I thought.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
ISTG it was "One in five, you little bitch, one in five!" It scans better.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I think I need to watch Alias.

Truly one of the great moments in that show's run.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
My roommate watched Alias, so I only saw it in passing, but that line really stuck with me, even if I didn't remember which show it was from.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I think I first saw him on Jack and Bobby.
