Happy: "Password".
Peter: No, what is your password?
Happy: Password, the word, spell that.
Peter: You're the head of security and your password is "password"?
Happy: ...I don't feel good about it either.

Baravelli (Chico Marx): ...you can't come in unless you give the password.
Professor Wagstaff (Groucho Marx): Well, what is the password?
Baravelli: Aw, no. You gotta tell me. Hey, I tell what I do. I give you three guesses. It's the name of a fish.
[After several unsuccessful guesses]
Baravelli: Hey, what's-a matter, you no understand English? You can't come in here unless you say, "Swordfish." Now I'll give you one more guess.
Professor Wagstaff: ...swordfish, swordfish... I think I got it. Is it "swordfish"?
Baravelli: Hah. That's-a it. You guess it.
Professor Wagstaff: Pretty good, eh?

"The Chairman doesn't seem very bright, but I'd give him more credit than using the computer's actual name as the password. That would be like me making my website password "agonybooth". Uh... But don't actually try that password, because that isn't it. Er, excuse me for one second. I have some administrative stuff to take care of."
"Password. Hm. Password. How 'bout "Guest"? (logs in successfully) No way! It can't be. Jesus Christ! That is just...babytown frolics!"

" 'Morphic Street, 9 o'clock tonight, password: swordfish.' Swordfish. Every password was swordfish. Whenever anyone tried to think of a word that no one would ever guess, they always chose swordfish."
People are dumb .... the most common passwords are 1234567890, 123456, password, The persons birthday, and password1. The name of a family member is a close second
Mason,
Stop complaining and go with it. It's new to all of us. You'll need a better password first off. "password" doesn't cut it. This is the CIA. You gotta protect your secrets and we're in the business of secrets. Go with something only you would know, something personal but not obvious. Do what I always do. Combine a name and a number. Pick someone important to you, like a mentor or something. Then put a date that's important to you on the end. For example, the year you won a big award. Combined those would be pretty difficult to guess.
Change your password or I'll do it for you. You do not want me sending mails in your name.

Maya: If it's not "sesame", then it must be her mother's maiden name. That's how it always is.

Tony: Where did you get this?
Kamala: Guessed your password on some Resistance blog.
Tony: Impressive.
Kamala: Dude, your password was "I AM IRON MAN."
Tony: Really? Huh. Thought I changed that.

[Alisaie points dramatically at the Archive Node]
Alisaie: Password!
[Appalled Reaction Shot from G'raha and the Warrior of Light]
Archive Node: The notion that the password could be something so inane would be laughable were it not dangerously stupid.
