Here's what the 36-year-old said in the scene in which he starred:

"Hey! Welcome to Sparky's! Could I set you folks up with some appetizers? (One of the characters says they'll not be eating) Well, that's no fun! You do realize that lunch is the most important meal of the day? (Another character responds by saying, 'That's breakfast') Some people say that."

MatPat even made a reference to his iconic phrase in the Fnaf movie, saying:

"But, you know, it's just a theory."

"MatPat! You have tricked us all! I just wanted to come on here to say as a huge fan of you and FNAF, seeing you get to have a role in this movie was really just so special. Getting to say your line as well, a line we've heard so many times over the past eight years with this franchise was surreal. Everything does come full circle. Glad you and Scott got to put your heads together and we all can't wait to hear about this experience! Hope you're as proud as we are!"
