   There has been a Pinky, AYPWIP? in each P&TB episode, except "Yes, 
Always," in which the two are basically seen out-of-character and not 
involved in trying to take over the world.  Conversely, the full 
AYPWIP has never been used in their cameo appearances.  (The closest was 
in the Rita and Runt episode "Of Nice and Men", where Brain makes a cameo 
appearance as George's pet mouse, and as he's flung away, comments to the 
viewer, AYPWIP?  This does not count as Pinky is not present for his 
usual non-sequitor reply - which is what we are really interested in 
hearing.)
    It's also interesting to note Pinky's obsession with clothing for his
lower body - rubber pants, chaps, a tutu, trousers, and culottes - those 
divided skirts that look like extremely full-cut pants.   And why would 
Pinky wear culottes, anyway?  Hmmmm.  Of course, there was the time in 
Noah's Lark where he was in drag and commented, "These pantyhose are 
killing me, Brain.  I think I prefer knee-highs."  Uh oh.  Pinky a 
cross-dresser!  Someone call Phar Fignewton... or Geraldo!  "Cartoon 
Transvestite Anti-Social Mice - and the Evil Geniuses who Love Them - on 
the next Geraldo!"  Zort.  Sorry, Brain.
    I put asterixes next to quotes that break the usual pattern of
"Pinky, AYPWIP, Uh, I think so, Brain, but ..."  The only explanation I
can think of to explain them is poor translation.  Obviously, Pavlov's
Mice would speak Russian, and when it was translated into English, the
subtle nuances were lost; hence "pondering" becomes the more prosaic
"thinking," and Pinky is made to seem more confident in his reply.
A similar problem must have occurred with the shift from Old/Middle
English to today's English in Spell-Bound.
    Lastly, I have heard that there have been other usages of AYPWIP, 
most notably on a commercial for Animaniacs, in which Pinky's response is 
something about the Queen and a jet-ski.  I have never seen this, nor 
have I been able to get a copy of "You Will Buy This Tape" to see if any 
new bits have been added.  If anyone would care to enlighten me, I'll 
include it in a future update.
