And what are you referring to?

Tycho Brahe had the better part of his nose cut off in a sword duel so he wore a metal prosthetic.

How do you avoid nose burn from a hot cigar ==> have a prosthetic metal nose.

Yes, I have a very strange sense of humor.

Ya know, a metal nose would act as a heat sink and transfer the heat to the face. I think that a silicone nose "cosy" would work better.

Not if you remove the metal nose before smoking...

Well then, the metal nose isn't needed at all. All you need is no nose. Unless the metal nose doubles as an ashtray.

That's almost exactly it. The whole joke was a very Laugh In-esque borderline non sequitur visual to me. Two men in early Victorian dress sitting around smoking, cigars burning down (yes, I know, borderline stretch of history here, just run with it), one violently over-reacts to the nose burn from his cigar, and says something like "Don't you just hate it when that happens?" The other responds, "Never a problem for me" and reveals himself as Tycho Brache as he pops the end of his nose off and sets it on the table and continues to smoke. The first man turns back toward the camera, drops out of character, breaks the 4th wall, and says something like "I never NOSE he could do that..." and gives a goofy facial expression while they cue the laugh track and cut to another scene.

See, I figured that we could just run with the sillyness and see how far we could take it.
