Woody

edit
  • Ride like the wind, Bullseye!
  • Oh, wow, would you look at me? It's like I'm fresh out of the box! Look at this stitching! Andy's gonna have a hard time ripping this!
  • Who am I to break up the Roundup gang?
  • For how much longer?! One more rip, then Andy's done with me! And what do I do then, Buzz, huh? You tell me!
  • You're right, Prospector. I can't stop Andy from growing up. But I wouldn't miss it for the world.
  • Wouldn't you give anything just to have one more day with Emily? Come on, Jessie. This is what it's all about. To make a child happy. And you know it.
  • Well, Stinky Pete, I think it's time you learned the true meaning of playtime.
  • Excuse me, ma'am, but I believe you're on the wrong flight. [Jessie: Woody.] Come on, Jess. It's time to take you home.

Buzz Lightyear

edit
  • Woody once risked his life to save me. I couldn't call myself his friend if I weren't willing to do the same. So, who's with me?
  • We have a friend in need! And we will not rest until he's safe in Andy's room! Now, let's move out!
  • Look for Al. We find Al, we find Woody. Now move out!
  • Woody, you're not a collector's item. You're a child's plaything. You... are... a toy!
  • Somewhere in that pad of stuffing is a toy who taught me that life's only worth living if you're being loved by a kid. And I traveled all this way to rescue that toy, because I believed him.
  • Slink, take the pedals. Rex, you navigate. Hamm and Potato, operate the levers and knobs.
  • Once we go through, we just need to find that case.

Jessie

edit
  • Let me guess. Andy's a real special kid. And to him you're his buddy, his best friend. And when Andy plays with you, it's, like, even though you're not moving, you feel like you're alive. Because, that's how he sees you. [Woody: Whoa. How did you know that?] Because, Emily was just the same. She was my whole world.
  • You never forget kids like Emily or Andy. But they forget you.
  • That was definitely Woody's finest hour!
  • Oh, Bullseye! We're part of a family again!
  • Well, aren't you the sweetest space toy I ever met?

Dialogue

edit
Woody: Here's your list of things to do while I'm gone: batteries need to be changed. Toys at the bottom of the chest need to be rotated. Oh, and make sure everyone attends Mr. Spell's seminar on what to do if you or part of you is swallowed. Okay? Okay, good, okay.
Buzz: Woody, you haven't found your hat yet, have you?
Woody: No! And Andy's leaving for Cowboy Camp any minute, and I can't find it anywhere!
Buzz: Don't worry, Woody. In just a few hours, you'll be sittin' around a campfire with Andy, makin' delicious, hot schmoes.
Woody: They're called s'mores, Buzz.
Buzz: Right, right, of course. Has anyone found Woody's hat yet?

[Later, a boy riding a bike throws a newspaper at the house. Woody is asleep when the car pulls up outside the house. He wakes up and sees Andy jumping out and riding on a toy horse]
Andy: Yee-haw! Ride 'em, cowboy! Whoo! Yeah, giddy-up! Yeah, giddy-up!
Woody: He's back? Hey, everybody! Andy's back! He's back early from cowboy camp!
[The toys are playing cards and look up to Woody. Hamm is at the door and hears Andy's footsteps coming closer]
Hamm: Places, everybody! Andy's coming!
[The toys scatter to their places and Woody freezes as Andy enters the room]
Andy: Yeah! [humming The Lone Ranger theme] Hey, Woody, did you miss me? Giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up. Ride 'em, cowboy!
[Then he sees the rip in Woody's arm and his smile turns to a frown]
Andy: Ohh, I forgot. You're broken. I don't want to play with you anymore.
[Andy drops Woody and he falls towards the deck of cards on the floor and as he hits them, he keeps falling through the blue area until he goes into a black circle and lands in a trash can. Woody looks around to see lots of broken toy hands and parts beside him]
Woody: [gasps] No. Andy! No! No, Andy! No! Andy, Andy, Andy!
[The toy parts grab Woody by the neck and drag him downward as Andy appears]
Andy: Byeee, Woody.
Woody: No, no! ANDY!
[Andy puts the lid on the bin, making it go black. Woody wakes up from a nightmare and sees his ripped arm around his neck. He moves his arm with strain and hits some books on the shelf and dust sprays up, making him cough. He then hears someone coughing and peeps behind the books to see Wheezy, a squeaky toy penguin coughing up some dust.]
Woody: Wheezy, is that you?
Wheezy: Hey, Woody.
Woody: What are you doing up here? I thought Mom took you to get your squeaker fixed months ago. Andy was so upset.
Wheezy: Nah. She just told him that to calm him down. And then put me on the shelf.
Woody: Well, why didn't you yell for help?
Wheezy: Well? I tried squeakin'. But I'm still broken. No one could hear me.

Rex: I can't find it! It doesn't seem to be on any of these stations!
Buzz: Keep looking.
Hamm: Ah, you’re goin' too slow. Let me take the wheel.
[Hamm rapidly presses the channel button and the commercials rapidly change.]
Rex: It's too fast. How can you even tell what's on?
Hamm: I can tell.
[Hamm keeps changing the channels even when Al's commercial appears.]
Buzz: There it is! Go back!
Rex: Back! Back! Back! Back!
Hamm: Too late, I'm in the 40s. Gotta go 'round the horn. It's faster.
[Hamm keeps pressing until it reaches Al's commercial and the toys stop him quickly before he can change it again.]
Al: And look for the giant chicken!
Buzz: Now, Etch! [Etch draws a map on his screen which shows the way to Al's Toy Barn] That's where I need to go.
Rex: You can't go, Buzz. You'll never make it there.
Buzz: Woody once risked his life to save me. I couldn't call myself his friend if I weren't willing to do the same. So who's with me?
Mrs. Potato Head: [packing Mr. Potato Head's accessories in his part storage hatch in his back] I'm packing you an extra pair of shoes, and your angry eyes. Just in case.
Bo Peep: [walks over to Buzz] This is for Woody when you find him. [kisses Buzz]
Buzz: [clears throat] All right. But l-- l don't think it'll mean the same coming from me.
Wheezy: Mr. Buzz Lightyear, You just gotta save my pal, Woody. [wheezes]
Buzz: I'll do my best, son.
[Mrs. Potato Head kisses Mr. Potato Head's cheek before giving him his moustache.]
Mr. Potato Head: Okay, fellas. Let's roll!
[Buzz, Slinky, Rex, Hamm and Mr. Potato Head walk on the roof and use Slinky's back as a bungee cord to jump down to the ground.]
Mr. Potato Head: Geronimo!
[Mr. Potato Head lands on the ground and lets Slinky's back go back up to Hamm who grabs it and jumps down.]
Rex: You'd think with all my video game experience, I'd be feeling more prepared.
[As Rex reaches for Slinky's back, he falls and hangs on to it as it bounces up and down.]
Slinky: The idea is to let go.
Buzz: We'll be back before Andy gets home.
Mrs. Potato Head: Don't talk to any toy you don't know!
Buzz: To Al's Toy Barn and beyond!

Jessie: Oh! Hey, look at us! We're a complete set!
Stinky Pete: Now it's on to the museum!
Woody: Museum?! [stops running in surprise and slides into Jessie and Bullseye, knocking them and himself off the record and onto the table] What museum?
Stinky Pete: The museum! We're being sold to the Konishi Toy Museum in Tokyo!
Jessie: That's in Japan!
Woody: Japan? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I can't go to Japan.
Jessie: [chuckles] What do you mean?
Woody: I gotta get back home to my owner, Andy. Hey, look, look, see?
Jessie: [gasps] He still has an owner.
Stinky Pete: Oh, my goodness.
Jessie: No. Can't go. I can't do storage again. I just can't!
Stinky Pete: Jessie. Jessie.
Jessie: [shaking his box frantically] I won't go back in the dark!
Woody: Wh-What's the matter? What's wrong with her?
Stinky Pete: Well, we've been in storage for a long time, waiting for you.
Woody: Why me?
Stinky Pete: The museum's only interested in the collection if you're in it, Woody. Without you, we go back into storage. It's that simple.
Jessie: It's not FAIR! How can you do this to us?!
Woody: Hey, look, I'm sorry, but this is all a big mistake. You see, I was in this yard sale, and--
Stinky Pete: Yard sale? Why were you in a yard sale if you have an owner?
Woody: Well, I wasn't supposed to be there. I was trying to save another toy when--
Stinky Pete: Was it because you're damaged? Hmm? Did this Andy break you?
Woody: Yeah, but... No, no, no, no! It was an accident. I mean--
Jessie: Sounds like he really loves you.
Woody: It's not like that, okay?! And I'm not going to any museum!
Jessie: Well, I'm not going back into storage! [gasps]
[The Roundup gang toys hear Al coming]
Stinky Pete: Al's coming!

Hamm: All right, nobody look till I get my cork back in.
Buzz: Good work, men. Two blocks down, and only 19 more to go.
Rex: What?!
Other toys: 19?!
Mr. Potato Head: Are we gonna do this all night? My parts are killing me.
Buzz: Come on, fellas! Did Woody give up when Sid had me strapped to a rocket?
Other toys: No.
Buzz: No! And did he give up when you threw him out of the back of that moving van?
Mr. Potato Head: Oh, ya had to bring that up.
Buzz: No, he didn't! We have a friend in need, and we will not rest until he's safe in Andy's room! Now let's move out!
Announcer: And that concludes our broadcast day.
[static]

Hamm: Hey. Buzz. Can we slow down? May I remind you that some of us are carrying over six dollars in change?
Rex: Losing health units... Must rest...
Buzz: Is everyone present and accounted for?
Mr. Potato Head: Not quite everyone.
Buzz: Who's behind?
Slinky: Mine...
[Slinky's back half catches up with the group]
Hamm: Hey, guys. Why did the toys cross the road?
Buzz: Not now, Hamm.
Rex: Oh. I love riddles. Why?
Hamm: To get to the chicken on the other side!
[Across the road is Al's Toy Barn. The toys cheer.]
Rex: Hooray! The chicken!
[Unfortunately for them, a lot of cars are shown zooming past. One of them hits a can which then lands on the pavement in front of the toys.]
Rex: Oh, well, we tried. [he turns to leave but Buzz grabs his tail]
Buzz: We'll have to cross. [the other toys gasp]
Mr. Potato Head: What the?! You're not turning me into a mashed potato.
Slinky: I may not be a smart dog, but I know what roadkill is.
Buzz: There must be a safe way.

[Ultility Belt Buzz uses Mr. Potato Head's eye to see what Woody and his roundup gang are up to in Al's apartment]
Ultility Belt Buzz: What's happening?
Mr. Potato Head: [frightened] Oh, it's horrible! They're torturing him!
Rex: [gasps] What are we gonna do, Buzz?!
Ultility Belt Buzz: Use your head!
[he and the others use Rex as a battering ram]
Rex: But I don't wanna use my head!
[they quickly charge at the vent and break through to the apartment]

Buzz: Hold it right there!
All: Buzz?!
Ultility Belt Buzz: You again!
Buzz: Woody! Thank goodness you’re alright.
Woody: Buzz, what is going on?
Ultility Belt Buzz: Hold on! I am Buzz Lightyear and I’m in charge of this detachment.
Buzz: No, I’m Buzz Lightyear.
Ultility Belt Buzz: I’m am Buzz Lightyear!
Buzz: I’m Buzz Lightyear!
Woody: So who’s the real Buzz?
Buzz and Ultility Belt Buzz: I am!

Buzz: Woody, you're in danger here. We need to leave now.
Rex: Al's selling you to a toy museum in Japan!
Woody: I know. It's okay, Buzz. I actually wanna go.
Rex: What?
Hamm: Are you crazy?
Woody: Look, the thing is I'm a rare Sheriff Woody doll, and these guys are my Roundup gang.
Buzz: Woody, what are you talking about?
Woody: What am I talking about? Woody's Roundup! Oh, it's this great old TV show, and I was the star. [shows himself on TV to Buzz] See, now, look! Look! Look at me! See? That's me!
Hamm: This is weirding me out.
Woody: Buzz, it was a national phenomenon. And there was all this merchandise that just got packed up. Oh, you should've seen it. There was a record player and a yo-yo...Buzz, I was a yo-yo!
Mr. Potato Head: Was?
Buzz: Woody, stop this nonsense and let's go.
Woody: Buzz. [sighs] I can't go. I can't abandon these guys. They need me to get into this museum. Without me, they'll go back into storage. Maybe forever.
Buzz: Woody, you're not a collector's item. You're a child's plaything. You... are... A TOY!
Woody: For how much longer? One more rip, and Andy's done with me. And what do I do then, Buzz? Huh? You tell me!
Buzz: Somewhere in that pad of stuffing is a toy who taught me that life's only worth living if you're being loved by a kid. And I traveled all this way to rescue that toy, because I believed him.
Woody: Well, you wasted your time.
Buzz: Let's go, everyone.
Slinky: What about Woody?
Buzz: He's not coming with us.
Rex: But Andy's coming home tonight.
Buzz: Then we'd better make sure we're there waiting for him.
[the other toys make their way back to the vent]
Woody: I don't have a choice, Buzz. This is my only chance.
Buzz: To do what, Woody? Watch kids from behind glass and never be loved again? Some life.

Woody: [after seeing a human boy hugging him on the set of "Woody's Roundup"] What am I doing? Buzz! Wait! Wait!
Stinky Pete: Woody, where are you going?
Woody: You're right, Prospector. I can't stop Andy from growing up... but I wouldn't miss it for the world. [runs to the heat duct]
Stinky Pete: No!
Woody: [opens the grill] BUZZ!
Buzz: Yes?
Ultility Belt Buzz: Yes?
Woody: I'm coming with you! [he gets a idea] Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! I'II be back in just a second.
Buzz Lightyear: Way to go, cowboy! [the other toys cheer]
Woody: Hey you guys. Come with me.
Jessie: What?
Woody: Andy will play with all of us. I know it!
Jessie: Woody, I-I. I don't know. I...
Woody: Wouldn't you give anything just to have one more day with Emily? Come on, Jessie. This is what it's all about. To make a child happy. And you know it. Bullseye? Are you with me? [Bullseye happily licks his face] Okay. Good boy. Alright! Prospector, how 'bout you?
[Woody turns the box around and finds it empty. Suddenly, a clang is heard and Stinky Pete is shown screwing the vent grill shut with his pickaxe to prevent the rest of the gang's escape, much to the shock of Woody, Bullseye and Jessie.]
Jessie: Prospector?!
Woody: You're outta your box!
Stinky Pete: [angrily] I tried reasoning with you, Woody, but you keep forcing me to take extreme measures.
[He taps his pickaxe onto the remote, turning off the TV. This causes Woody to realize something.]
Woody: Wait a minute. You turned on the TV last night, not Jessie!
Stinky Pete: Look, we have an eternity to spend together at the museum. Let's not start off by pointing fingers, shall we?
Woody: You really are Stinky Pete, aren't you?
Jessie: Prospector, this isn't fair!
Stinky Pete: FAIR?! I'll tell you what's not fair: Spending a lifetime on a dime-store shelf watching every other toy be sold! Well, finally my waiting has paid off, and no hand-me-down cowboy doll IS GONNA MESS IT UP FOR ME NOW! [throws his box back into his display case]
Woody: Buzz! Help, Buzz! Guys!
Stinky Pete: It's too late, Woody! That silly Buzz Lightweight can't help you.
Woody: His name is Buzz Lightyear!
Stinky Pete: Whatever. I've always hated those upstart space toys. [goes back into his box]

Zurg: Surrender, Buzz Lightyear. I have won.
Ultility Belt Buzz: I'll never give in! You killed my father!
Zurg: No, Buzz. I am your father.
Ultility Belt Buzz: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Slinky: Buzz! Buzz, my back is going to Baton Rouge! [screams]
Buzz: Slinky!
[The other toys are almost caught up with the second green case.]
Hamm: Here we come, Woody!
Mr. Potato Head: Woody, here we come! Here we come!
Rex: Woody!
[They open it and see cameras inside it and not Woody. The other toys groan in disappointment.]
Hamm: Hey, nice flash though.
[Buzz runs towards Al's case and opens up.]
Buzz: Okay, Woody, let's go!
Stinky Pete: [punches Buzz off the ramp] Take that, space toy!
Woody: HEY! NO ONE DOES THAT TO MY FRIEND!
[Woody attacks Stinky Pete and the two of them wrestle on the conveyor belt. Stinky Pete gets the upper hand when he kicks Woody off him and rips his arm with his pickaxe. Woody screams.]
Stinky Pete: Your choice, Woody. You can go to Japan together or in pieces. If he fixed ya once, he can fix ya again. NOW GET IN THE BOX!!
Woody: NEVER!!
Stinky Pete: FINE!!
[Stinky Pete raises up his pickaxe, but before he can do anything else to Woody, a white light flashes in his eyes. Buzz and the other toys are shown using the cameras to blind him and they run towards him.]
Stinky Pete: No!
Buzz: Gotcha!
Stinky Pete: [as Buzz lifts him up] Idiots! Children destroy toys! You'll all be ruined, forgotten, spending eternity rotting in some landfill!
Woody: Well, Stinky Pete, I think it's time you learned the true meaning of playtime. [rubs his cheek, then points to something off-screen] Right over there, guys!
Stinky Pete: [horrified] No! No! NOOOOOO!!!!

Woody: Excuse me, ma'am, but I believe you're on the wrong flight.
Jessie: [hugs him] Woody.
Woody: Come on, Jessie. It's time to take you home.
Jessie: But what if Andy doesn't like me?
Woody: Nonsense, Andy will love you. Besides, he's got a little sister.
Jessie: He does? Why didn't you say so? Let's go!

Woody: Jessie, let go of the plane!
Jessie: What? Are you crazy?!
Woody: Just pretend it's the final episode of "Woody's Roundup."
Jessie: But it was cancelled! We never saw if you made it!
Woody: Well, then, let's find out together!

[last lines]
Buzz: You still worried?
Woody: About Andy? Nah. It'll be fun while it lasts.
Buzz: I'm proud of you, cowboy.
Woody: Besides, when it all ends, I'll have old Buzz Lightyear to keep me company... for infinity and beyond.
