Woman in a bar: This particular mathematician appears to be from the 5th century BC.
Prime numbers: This reminds me of the Grothendieck prime, 57.
Hunting: I would modify the statisticians statement to "on average, we got him", but that doesn't sound as funny.
Theorem: I would have thought that the mathematician would just define, without loss of generality, the interior of his prison cell to be 'outside', much like in the subsequent joke about fences.
