Matt refers to an episode of “Coupling” on the BBC - the episode was Series 1, Episode 2, “Size Matters” - here’s the quote:
Patrick: Oh, don’t be so piecey.
Howard: Typical lefty puritan..
Sally: Typical what? Come the revolution-.
Patrick: What revolution!? You guys are in power! We’re the revolution now!.
Sally: No. No, it can’t be right…
Patrick: You’re the evil empire..
Sally: No!.
Howard: Yes! Like Star Wars, and Patrick and me are the Rebel Alliance..
Sally: No! You’re not the goodies, we’re the goodies! We’re lefties!! We’re always goodies!.
Patrick: puts glass on his mouth and makes a Darth Vader voice No, Sally. You’re the establishment.
