Can't believe I forgot about this one, but the above reminded me:

Playing the original Top Secret, back in college. I'd been sent to investigate a high-value target at a hotel in Vegas. Unbeknownst to me, another agency, allied with my own, had sent their own man (Greg) to check the target out, as well. I'd picked the lock on the door, while he rappelled in the window. We snuck around the suite for a while, then came across each other abruptly. I had my .38 at the ready; he drew his .45, and we aimed at each other.

Me: Put down your gun!
Greg: You put yours down!
Me: Why should I?
Greg: Because mine makes a bigger hole!
(pause)
Me: (putting down gun) Good point.
