Next to Half Baked, this was Harland Williams' best role!

It's my favorite part of the movie. It stands out above the performance from Ben Stiller. It's also streets ahead of Cameron Diaz' meandering into comedic territory. What did you think of Harland Williams' cameo as the murdering hitch-hiker?
Hitchhiker: No No, no, not 6 I said 7. Nobody's comin' up with 6. Who works out in 6 minutes You won't even get your heart goin, not even a mouse on a wheel.
Ted: That -- good point.
Hitchhiker: 7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 doors. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby. Step into my office.
Ted: Why
Hitchhiker: 'Cause you're fuckin' fired
What do you think? Is it his best role next to Kenny?

I'm most likely the only person on these boards who can say that he really enjoyed Williams in Rocketman. And I'm okay with that.
