Skinner: Oh Superintendent, I was just, er, stretching my calves of the windowsill, isometric excercise. Care to join me?

Chalmers: Er, right. Seymour why is there smoke coming out of your oven?

Skinner: Oh no! That isn't smoke, that's steam. Steam from the steamed clams we're having. Mmmm steam clams.
