Aurora: "Dammit...I'm the other Sterling daughter!!"
Louie: "Nonono...that can't be right. Officially, the Sterlings have only two daughters!"
Aurora: "I was retconned out!"
Zor: "Sure, you were..."
Aurora: "Why doesn't anyone believe me?!"

Zor: "Yes; it's true. Tommy snd HG figured it would be a lot cheaper then paying stunt doubles. So, to make your 'death' scenes more believable, they decided to let you actually die and just clone you."
Edwards: "Wait...I don't remember dying!"
Zor: "Mind wipes. In fact, we're going to do one right now!"
Edwards: "What?? Hey --!"

Louie: "..d'oh!"
Zor: "It's all right, we all have our 'duh' moments."
Louie:"And what was yours?"
Zor: "Truthfully answering the question 'does this make me look fat?'"
Louie: "...so you DID die!"
Zor: "More like a NEAR death experience."

A tech on the SDF-4 is trying to put in missiles that are too big for their launchers because he doesn't have any that are the right size AND he is required to fully load the missiles onto the Veritechs. One wrong swing with a hammer and the SDF-4 goes:

The US Navy actually, with its F-11 Tiger, managed to have a fighter capable of shooting itself down with its own cannon(and that's supposedly what happened during high speed strafing exercises).

The Arrow was also rumored to be able to overtake it's own missiles.
Not surprised that there might be something out there that could do that.
