"My Favorite Things" was a song from the Earth musical and movie The Sound of Music. In it, the singer suggests thinking of pleasant things to help oneself cope with distressing events, and lists some of her personal go-to thoughts as examples.

When Maldis was taunting John Crichton, he said, "Have you forgotten? Fear makes me stronger. Fear and the terror of helplessness. These are a few of my favorite things." Crichton was unimpressed, and he replied, "Oh, could you do that farewell good-bye song the kids sing? It's one of my favorites." ("Picture If You Will") It seemed as though Crichton grasped the message of "My Favorite Things," making the taunt Maldis intended to intimidate him fail rather ironically.
