Who's the guy who, late in the movie, jumps from the left side of the frame, grabs Leon's love handles, shakes them, saying "Leon's getting too fat! He's too fat!" and then jumps back out of the frame, leaving Leon astonished and speechless, staring to the left? And who is Leon?

It looks like an ad-libbed scene to me: "Leon" was absolutely struck dumb by the move.



- Time's getting thinner.

- and Leon's getting laaaaarger.

-- Stephen Stucker as Johnny


Thank you! I hadn't noticed Stucker the first time I watched Airplane! but he kept stealing scenes in my second viewing.


It’s actually:

“Bad news, the fog is getting thicker”

“And Leon’s getting laaaarger!”
