One thing I learned from GET SMART (the television series)

The importance of cluelessness. 

Matching wits with the Chief. 

Maxwell Smart reduces a pool room to splinters. The Chief throws his hands up in despair.

Chief: Alright this has gone far enough! Max, you told me you're a good pool player but you're a fake and a fraud —  you haven't the vaguest notion about pool!

Maxwell Smart: Just what are you getting at, Chlef? 

*****

Max [disguised in leotards]: I'm no dancer, Your Exellency! Look, I'll prove it to you: [Performs a clumsy pirouette] Maybe I am a dancer!
