Spaceballs | The Radar Gets Jammed With Raspberry#shortsAdded:
I'm having trouble with the radar, sir.
What's wrong with it? I've lost the blips, I've lost the sweeps, and I've lost the creeps. The what? The what? And the what? You know, the blips, sweeps, and the creeps.
>> [laughter] >> That's not all he's lost.
Sir, the radar, sir. It appears to be raspberry.
There's only one man who would dare give me the raspberry.
What was that?
Never mind that. WHAT WAS THAT? HI.
WHO ARE YOU? BARF.
NOT IN HERE, MISTER. THIS is a Mercedes.
No, that's my name. Barf. Barf?
What are you? I'm a mog. Half man, half dog. Good. Quick. Hurry, darling. Off with the dog. Wait. What about my matched luggage?
