Ever been watching a show and had a character make a comment that referred to a completely different character, or maybe a future character they would play some day?

I was watching 2 guys and a Girl, mainly because of Nathan Fillion, and I was shocked (and pleased) by this one scene. It goes something along the lines of this...

Set up: One of Johnny Donelly's sisters is visiting and he's playing with two of his nephews at the pizza parlour. Johnny's on his knees and they all stare at a table inside the pizza parlour. The two boys are standing behind his outstretched arms, like a barricade.

Johnny (staring at a table in the pizza place): See that table. We're gonna take it, and nobody can stop us.

Nephew: You got it, Sarge.

Johnny: Let's go.
[Table is attacked and subdued].

Anybody else got one?

Oh, and during the credits rolled, there were baby pictures...

"So...We gonna sing army songs or something?"

Two of Gina Torres' previous roles kind of remind me of her two more recent roles.

1. She played Nebula on Hercules. She was a princess or someone with some position; kind of regal I suppose. She kinda had a similar fit while playing Jasmine during the 4th season of Angel.

2. As Hel, Gina was a kick-ass freedom fighter on the short-lived syndicated TV series Cleopatra 2525. This role is definitely very Zoe-esque. In contrast to Hel, Zoe wore more clothing, which isn't a bad thing considering how gorgeous Gina is.

Don't forget Gina's role on Alias. She played a 'take no prisoners' agent, the main characters nemesis.
