It's an MST reference, specifically from Pod People, and something me and my friend Tramm did constantly in film school. To the point of putting in a 'someone sits up suddenly in bed' shot/scene into our thesis film.

Gryph described it when he first started tinkering with this mini, which automatically triggered the reference, and it stuck. I love Saavik's response to it. Surely by that point she's more than familiar with Gryphon's range of references, so one is left to wonder if she's actually making a joke there. :)
