Futurama did a great take on this with their Da Vinci Code parody episode.
Animatronio mentioned a fountain. That's a statue of Neptune, god of water. The number of points on him trident is three, or trey. The "u" in his name is written like "v". Trey, "v". Trevi! It's the Trevi Fountain. There can be no question!
"but what about--?"
"There can be no question!!"
Gotta love it
This except instead of going directly through that thought process, one character will say, "I've got it! Follow me!" And the chapter ends, followed by a chapter from the pov of every other character who isn't involved in that discovery.
I watched all of Futurama, but I don't remember that episode. Which one was it?
Here you go!
Thanks, now I remember

Often times season 6 refers to the movies produced between season 5 and 7.
This reminds me of national treasure so much. Literally just random jumps until you fall into the obvious answer.
