Quote from Nick in Return to Sender
Nick: But if it goes poorly, I'm not putting Humpty Dumpty back together again. Schmidt: Am I Humpty Dumpty? Nick: Yeah. I'm just not doing it again. Schmidt: You won't have to. Nick: Also, nowhere in that rhyme does it say he's an egg. Schmidt: He's most definitely an egg, Nick. Nick: So, what kind of king uses all those resources to put together one egg? Schmidt: It's a parable. Humpty Dumpty is the king. Nick: Who told you that?
