The Matt

Okay, I've had this question in my head since the first time I saw this episode. It's on now, so I thought I'd ask the a.t.s. experts.

In 1F19, "The Boy Who Knew Too Much", after Skinner finds Bart's gum on the sidewalk, we get this odd "camera" angle and Skinner says:

"And so we enter...endgame."

So, what is this a reference too? Some movie or TV show? It was just too odd to just be normal Skinner, so I figure the writers were referencing something.

Please help. I've looked in SNPP, so no need to look at it, but I figure someone knows.

Thanks, Matt Thompson
