Good old Ernesto is making fun of people who take a word from another language and use it in an English sentence without knowing what it means.
In this case, “terror” is “terreur” in French;
and “pied” is “foot” in English.
Here’s a fun fact: In French the expression “pied à terre” means an apartment at street level, which would be first floor. Getting a “pied à terre” is everyone’s dream, in every old part of a French town or city, since those old apartment houses don’t have elevators.
Probably not flashy enough for you, Ernesto, but you could just go with “Sandman” or maybe “Pins and Needles Man,” although under my breath, I am going to continue to call you numb nuts.

No, you are speaking a little French and a little English. Pied = foot.

Probably, “Pied Dans la Bouche”, would be more appropriate.

Frankly, after that spiel, Petey makes the most sense. Or he could just say, Huh? That should cover it.

I don’t think Ernesto is superhero material… now, it could be the incarnation of a super villian, though.
