Airplane! (1980) – “And don’t call me Shirley”

The moment happens when stewardess Elaine Dickinson (Julie Hagerty) asks Captain Oveur (Peter Graves) if he wants coffee. When he replies with “No, thank you, I take it black, like my men,” she responds with an incredulous “So, cream, then?” To which, Oveur says, “No, I said ‘like my men,’ not ‘with my men.’ And don’t call me Shirley.” It’s a witty and unexpected punchline that has entered the cultural lexicon as a reference to a moment of pure comedic genius.
