Word of the Day -- Extricate

Okay so this word is pretty easy and I know it pretty well. But the reason I bring:

Extricate -- to free or remove someone or something from an entanglement or difficulty.

up is because of (and this happens more than you would think) Monty Python.  Steve and I used to stay up late watching reruns and going over the dialogue... There's a line in one of the Spanish Inquisition skits (bonus points if you can find it for me, I can't seem to) "We have to extricate the truth from the unbelievers"!

This comes from the Monty Python album, "The Final Rip Off" from 1987, CD 2, track 8, "Spanish Inquisition (Part 3)". The line in question doesn't appear in the Flying Circus series 2 episode 2, "The Spanish Inquisition" TV episode.
