I suspect that a lot of studio executives still think of me as 'what's-his-name'.
Chris Cooper

I think cheese smells funny, but I feel bananas "are" funny. I'm assuming Swamp told the whole story of the executives seriously asking us to replace the banana with cheese because they thought it was funnier.
