Episodes edit

Super Strong Warner Siblings/Nutcracker Slappy/Wakko's New Gookie/A Quake, a Quake! [3.01] edit

[After "Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy Op. 71 a Andante ma non troppo" from "The Nutcracker Suite" leaves both Slappy and Skippy dazed...]

Slappy: Hold it! Stop the music there! [the music stops] What's with the sappy music and the dancing? I don't do pathos and I can't dance, don't ask me. [to Charlton Woodchuck] Wait a minute. You look familiar. Unappealing, but familiar.

Skippy: Aunt Slappy, that's the director, Charlton Woodchuck.

Slappy: BAYNARTS! [slaps him on the back] What're you doin' here, you ol' son of a hack?

Charlton: It's "Charlton". It's written in my contract that when I was old enough, I would get to direct.

Slappy: Yeah, Skippy has the same deal.

Skippy: [dressed like Steven Spielberg] Love you, babe, but we're losing our light.

Slappy: [taps the script] What's with six minutes of opening a walnut?

Charlton: Don't you see? It's a parable about man against nature. The nut represents the struggle to achieve our goals.

Slappy: [tears up the script] There! My goal is achieved!

Charlton: [sighs] Let me put it this way, Sloppy.

Slappy: It's "Slappy", Baynarts!

Charlton: That's "Charlton". Either you do this script, or you don't get paid.

[Slappy goes nose to nose with Charlton, glaring... then grins winningly, complete with cash register sound]

Slappy: Hit it, maestro!

[At the end of the cartoon, after finally getting the shell to open...]

Slappy: Hey, von Stroheim! There's no nut inside this shell!

Charlton: Yes, exactly, it's the emptiness of our existence! That's symbolism, that's metaphor!

Slappy: Yeah, but that's not comedy! [stuffs Charlton into the nutshell] Now there's a nut inside!

Skippy: Now that's comedy!

Slappy: You're adorable, but that's my line!

Yakko: Is this you? Are you happily engrossed in inconsequential cartoon trivia to the point that your socks can probably stand up by themselves?

[The Warners were in the bathtub. Dot screams]

Wakko: Uh oh! I feel a bubble coming on!

Slappy: Go away!

Slappy: [seeing three Skippys] Well, if it isn't Huey, Dewey and Louie. I haven't seen you guys since Daisy Duck's bat mitzvah.

[after Yakko sang All the Words in the English Language]

Dick: Hey, congratulations, Yakko!

Yakko: [gets ready to stand up] Thanks, Dick.

Yakko: Tell us, where did you last see your boss?

Hello Nurse: In the Mambo Room at the Tropicombo Club. A band was playing Latin dance music. I was with the doctor, he mumbled something. The band had a big dumb guy playing drums and everyone was dancing under a pole, then the doctor vanished.

Yakko: Now, lemme get this straight: He muttered some mumbo-jumbo during the Combo Samba in the Mambo at the Tropicombo. Then there was a jumbo dumbo playing the limbo on the bongos and then he was gone?

Hello Nurse: That is absolutely correct!

[A You Bet Your Life-style fanfare plays]

Yakko: Tell her what she's won!

Wakko: Another date with me!

Hello Nurse: How come I always get the booby prize?

Dot: I'm not touching that one!

Yakko: So sister, what's your story?

Dot: Well, I was born in the wagon of a travelin' show, my mama used to dance for the money they'd throw. Papa would do what...

Yakko: Not you! Her!

Bette Midler: [bursting through the door, singing] It's only one eye, but it's open!

Yakko: No, not you either. HER!

Dot: You said sister!

Yakko: All he-man detectives call women 'Sister' in the politically unaware decades preceding Women's Liberation. [to Hello Nurse] So sister [to Dot] who's really not my sister but I'm just CALLING sister...

Hello Nurse: I claim this statue in the name of Gulf and Western.

Minerva Mink: I claim it in the name of Rupert Murdoch.

Ralph: Uh, by gad, sir. I claim it in the name of Matsu... I mean, Mateshootie... uh... for Seagram's.

Yakko: Ah, I've got it. The mink is working for Fox, the pair of legs is working for Paramount, and the guy who needs rehearsal's working for Universal!

Dot: [dryly] Thank you, Dr. Seuss.

Yakko: Now about our fee.

Hello Nurse: I'm prepared to pay well.

Yakko: Fine. We only ask one thing.

Hello Nurse: What's that?

Yakko: Never put us on opposite '60 Minutes'; we'll get creamed.

The Warners: [singing about Googy] The censors all protest, 'cuz she's practically undressed, the cartoon vamp.

Dot: She's a tramp!

Yakko and Wakko: Hello Googy!

Yakko: [about the Fleischer animation that brings all inanimate objects to life] This is going to be the most frightening six minutes of our lives.

Rita: Just be quiet, or they’ll chase us.

Runt: I’m hot, Rita. Definitely, definitely hot.

Soccer Coach Slappy/Belly Button Blues/Our Final Space Cartoon, We Promise/Valuable Lesson [3.12] edit

Slappy: [wearing a coach's hat] I'd like to say how very happy I am to be here. I'd also like to be stuck on a deserted island with Morey Amsterdam. But I'm not. I didn't ask for this job, and in fact, i'm missin' a Ricki Lake episode, I'm talkin' sacrifice here! Actually, I'm doin' it for my nephew Skippy.

Skippy: [hugs Slappy] You're the greatest, Aunt Slappy!

Slappy: Coachin' does have it's small rewards.
