I almost get the feeling they did numerous shots with Bob adding new bits in each time trying to get Tim to crack up (fully aware Tim writes the show and it's likely he wrote Bob's dialogue but still).

FUN FACT: "One fell swoop" is a Shakespeare reference. Likely one of the earliest pop-culture references to still exist in the modern lexicon. Sort of like how young adults today use the term "brokeback" as a prefix to imply guy-on-guy action but many don't actually know what it's referencing. Sorry, I couldn't think of a non-gay modern example. Make of that what you will. I just hope in 300 years, people will still be saying "triples makes it safe, triples is best" to invoke a comical yet earnest sadness without actually knowing why.

They should put this in black and white and make it the opening for Saul Season 6. We all know this is the logical endpoint for Jimmy.

It’s great because it’s simple in its premise, but that premise leads to a wild complexity in the actual situation. Odenkirk’s character is participating in a lie, and then uses his knowledge of that lie as leverage to force the dad into participating in his own fantasy, and it’s hard to say whether it’s the dad’s sympathy for the man’s desperation or the dad’s desire to not be revealed as a liar that is driving his compliance more, but in either case he has now become complicit in a wildly more egregious lie to his daughter than he ever intended, and on top of all that you realize after stepping back that the daughter is actually the biggest victim of this whole affair even as she’s just an object for these two guys to wage their Cold War of duplicitousness around.

Goddamn. These sketches always have that moment where you begin to empathize with the insufferable person. It's genius. This made me more emptional than it should have.

I cant stop rewatching this sketch. I think it’s become my favorite. This needs a whole spin-off show.

2:20 is absolutely devastating 😭😭

"If I don't have triples, the other stuff's not true" 😂

The first time I watched this it completely went over my head. This is so goddamn funny.

That was my experience with a lot of season 2. I didn’t think it was too funny the first time through but upon a rewatch I’m cracking up at every sketch.

I cannot stop thinking about this sketch.

there’s actually no feasible reason for this sketch to be THIS funny

I cried the first time I saw this sketch 😂 😭

On this show usually everyone strictly follows a script but Bob was allowed to improvise for this sketch which makes it even funnier than the first time i watched it

I just found out about this. I wish they'd encourage more of their guest stars to do the same. This sketch is one of my all time favorites because you can tell it's Bob bringing his own personality and humor to the character. Fred Armisen and Tim Meadows felt more like they were wearing Tim Robinson's skin in their sketches.

If I ever get a chance to do this, i'm going for it.. 😂 It's like a fun form of blackmail.

i think the new season does a crazy good job at bringing in emotion to these sketches. they're just as funny but it feels like a more honest depiction of humanity

I love how he notices that Tim is getting upset that he adds a second set of triples in his fantasy so he assures him it's just those two, but he wanted more so he conjures up the phone scenario so he can have another triples set.

This will be the opening scene for season 3, in black and white like those Saul flashback intros

The more I watch this and just pay attention to the daughter’s expressions, the more I believe that by the end she too has caught on to what this man is going through and is doing her best to play along for his sake

also love that it's clearly sunny outside

Glad that deal with the triples of the nova was settled

This is one of my favorite skits. The acting is amazing. A lot of people will think it’s stupid I’m sure but it’s hilarious because it’s so realistic.

The sunglasses and the rings. Such a random but perfect touch.
