Wow, so "two bits" is what Roger says in response to Judge Doom in Who Framed Roger Rabbit. I can hear it now, but I never actually knew what was said.

I never understood that either. It only took me about 30 years to get the joke.
This is the funniest scene in the entire movie IMHO.

Roger's compulsive, uncontrollable need to respond with "Two Bits" kills me every time.

Right. As a toon Roger can’t not respond. It’s how Doom forces him to reveal himself.
I've seen dozens of memes using the same gag but with a popular song or catch phrase.
If you’re a Seinfeld fan, listen to how George knocks on the door in “The Butter Shave”. :)
