Holly : [her IQ has been increased to 12,000] Strike a light! I'm a genius again! I know everything! Metaphysics, philosophy, the purpose of being-everything! Ask me a question, any question, and I'll answer it.
Talkie Toaster : Any question?
Holly : Yes.
Talkie Toaster : How to break the speed of light? How to marry quantum mechanics and classical physics? Any question at all, truly anything and you will answer?
Holly : Yes.
Talkie Toaster : OK, here's my question: Would you like some toast?
Holly : No, thank you. Now ask me another.
Talkie Toaster : Do you know anything about the use of chaos theory in predicting weather cycles?
Holly : I know everything there is to know about chaos theory and predicting weather cycles.
Talkie Toaster : Oh, very well. Here's my second question: Would you like a crumpet?
Holly : I'm a computer with an I.Q. of 12,000. You don't seem to understand; I know the meaning of the universe.
Talkie Toaster : That's not answering my question.
Holly : [irritated] No, I would not like a crumpet! Now ask me a sensible question, preferably one that isn't bread related.
Talkie Toaster : Very well. I have a third question. A sensible question. A question that will tax your new I.Q. to its very limits and stretch the sinews of you knowledge to bursting point.
Holly : This is going to be about waffles, isn't it?
Talkie Toaster : Certainly not. And I resent the implication that I'm a one-dimensional, bread-obsessed electrical appliance.
Holly : I apologise, toaster. What's the question?
Talkie Toaster : The question is this: Given that God is infinite, and that the universe is also infinite... would you like a toasted teacake?
Holly : That's another bready question.
Talkie Toaster : It's not just bready. It's quite curranty, too.

Talkie Toaster : [Holly is shutting herself off] Wait, before you go, there is one question, an important one, the others will have to know!
Holly : [alarmed] What? What?
Talkie Toaster : Would you like a cheese and ham Breville?

Holly : You're a total smeghead, aren't you Rimmer? Why are you so unable to grasp this extraordinarily simple premise?
