- Detritus has just misfired his Piecemaker, blowing through a wall in Vimes' house and destroying a good portion of Vimes' yard (including the trees), and setting off several fires.
Detritus: Er, sorry about that, Mister Vimes. |
- More fun with the Piecemaker:
Vimes: Detritus, you can't fire that off in here! This is an enclosed building! |
- A hilarious sequence involving a barricade, a stupid soldier, and a somewhat more intelligent commander.
"If you listen, you will realize that it is merely the national anthem sung rather badly." |
- Colon and the boys' numbered list of reasons for expanding the barricades to include a quarter of the city while "Keel" is away. Fred's "Are you okay, Sarge?" and subsequent apology after the implied Face Palm being included as the final items on the list always raises a chuckle.
- The destruction of Big Mary (a large siege weapon) with a couple of wooden wedges and some lumps of raw ginger.
- And young!Vimes' subsequent reaction, staring at "Keel" with wide eyed hero worship.
- Detritus' song for the new recruits:
Now we sing dis stupid song |
- The part when Vimes' epic One-Liner backfires.
"Yeah? On whose authority?" |
- Vimes ordering the barricade taken down because it's badly made. Also a C Mo A.
"I repeat, I order you to dismantle this barricade." He took a deep breath and went on. "And rebuild it on the other side of the corner with Cable Street! And put up another one at the top of Sheer Street! Properly built! Good grief, you don't just pile stuff up, for god's sake! A barricade is something you construct!" |
