Yu Yu Hakusho1992

Botan:
I must admit I was about to give you a couple of black eyes. Seems you're always putting Yusuke up against people he shouldn't be able to beat, just to see what will happen.

Koenma:
That's just a result of your inexperience, Botan. You underestimate his true potential. Why, I'd never put him in a fight I didn't know he could win.

Botan:
That's incredible, sir. You knew all along?

Koenma:
You betcha!

Ogre:
Uh, Koenma, sir, what should we do with the black suit and eulogy I wrote for Yusuke's funeral?

Koenma:
Meh... heh... huh... Well, you know, uh, good leader's always got to take a few precautions.

Botan:
BIG LIAR!

[She grabs Koenma roughly by the lapels]

Koenma:
Hey, come on now. Everything turned out good in the end, didn't it?
