Hm, you could swallow him live, or materialize him as a whale above the atmosphere of a planet, or you could give him a heart attack by making something interesting happen at a cricket match, or…

I’ll see your whale and raise you a bowl of petunias!

I always knew I was missing the joke on “Ford Prefect” but I never bothered to figure out how. Thanks!
