IIRC the morons line was ad libbed by Gene Wilder, not scripted.

Well, technically someone originally proposed them in some ancient PEI Ur language and then Mel rearranged them. But you’re right. I couldn’t remember Wilder’s character’s name and kept coming up with The Frisco Kid. The 70s were a great time for weird film.

Do you attribute the following to Yoda or Lucas? "Do or do not, there is no try."

Did Mel or Richard write this part?
