| 14 | This long-running show is full of humorous moments. So we thought we'd organize it by folders. |
| 15 | ---- |
| 16 | |
| 17 | [[foldercontrol]] |
| 18 | |
| 19 | [[folder: Running Gags]] |
| 20 | * The way Grandpa says "[[ArcNumber fifteen]]" in almost every episode he's been in. His WhenIWasYourAge spiels for that matter too. |
| 21 | * Whenever the babies mispronounce words or unknowingly substitute them with different words. |
| 22 | ** In a couple of episodes, the babies unknowingly correct a word that Angelica mispronounces, and then she “corrects” them into mispronouncing it too”: e.g in “The Trial,” when they say “jury” correctly and she insists that the word is “jerky.” |
| 23 | * From at least three episodes: "This coffee [[ItTastesLikeFeet tastes like mud]]!" "It ''is'' mud." |
| 24 | * [[HypocriticalHumor "Aw, quit bein' a baby!"]] |
| 25 | * Stu and Drew argue a lot. |
| 26 | * Phil and Lil argue a lot--only, [[ArgumentOfContradictions their arguing is even more petty and pointless]]. |
| 27 | * Stu frequently is overcome with enthusiasm over his latest invention, and he carries on about how it will be the one to "put Pickles' Toys on the map." |
| 28 | [[/folder]] |
| 29 | |
| 30 | [[folder: Season One]] |
| 31 | !! Tommy Pickles and the Great White Thing |
| 32 | !! Tommy's First Birthday |
| 33 | * Stu introduces the Hoverama, a hovercraft he made as a present for Tommy: |
| 34 | --> '''Lou:''' Stu, are you off your nut? Tommy's not old enough for that gizmo! Heck, ''I'm'' not even old enough for it! |
| 35 | * When Stu wants to stand in for the no-show puppeteers: |
| 36 | -->'''Lou:''' Remember what happened the last time you boys put on a show?\ |
| 37 | '''Stu:''' Oh, come on, Pop, [[NoodleIncident my arm healed, and Drew sees almost perfectly out of that eye. Besides, we were 8 or 9 years old.]] |
| 38 | * The scene where Stu and Drew argue about their childhoods during the puppet show, which descends into a family therapy session. |
| 39 | ** Lou unsuccessfully trying to break up the argument with his own puppet of the Woodsman: |
| 40 | --->'''Stu:''' Those were ''my'' baseball cards, ''mine'', and you traded them to Whitey for that stupid hat!\ |
| 41 | '''Drew:''' Yeah, I traded em', and I'd trade em' again! If you wanted em' so bad, you shouldn't have left em' in my room!\ |
| 42 | '''Lou:''' (''holding up the Woodsman puppet'') That's enough out of both of you! Break it up or I'll tan both your hides! (''hits Stu and Drew's puppets with his Woodsman puppet'') |
| 43 | ** Later, this happens when Chuckie starts controlling the Hoverama. |
| 44 | --->'''Stu:''' That was ''my'' bike! I earned it with ''my'' paper route!\ |
| 45 | '''Drew:''' It was still usable! I only bent the handlebars a little! And that was on account of what ''you'' did to my skateboard!\ |
| 46 | '''Stu:''' SKATEBOARD!? ''SKATEBOARD!!!''\ |
| 47 | '''Didi:''' Okay, let's agree to disagree. Stu, you shouldn't have wrecked Drew's skateboard. Drew, you shouldn't have bent Stu's handlebars.\ |
| 48 | '''Boris:''' What's the matter with you, Didi? Let the boys argue. |
| 49 | ** Stu and Drew [[ManlyTears crying]] over the final anecdote: |
| 50 | --->'''Didi:''' Now you, Stu. Don't hold back.\ |
| 51 | '''Stu:''' ''(sniffles)'' Tony Bow-Wow was my favorite stuffed toy. ''(sniffles again)'' Wh-why'd you have to go and... ''(voice breaks)'' tear his ears off?\ |
| 52 | '''Drew:''' It was wrong, Stu. I was only four. Can you ever forgive me? ''(he starts crying)'' |
| 53 | ** All this goes down as ''they're still working the puppets'', kneeled down inside the prop theater and all! Didi even pets Stu's Little Red Riding Hood puppet as he cries. The argument finally ends when the Hoverama crashes into the cake, which none of the adults notice until it already happens. |
| 54 | * Howard saying Stu and Drew gave a "spirited performance" for the puppet show, only to take it back when Didi and Betty give him a DeathGlare. |
| 55 | !! Barbecue Story |
| 56 | * [[SurvivalMantra "Please don't eat Tommy! Please don't eat Tommy! Please don't eat Tommy!"]] |
| 57 | !! Waiter, There's a Baby in My Soup |
| 58 | * One of Stu's inventions is a pair of glasses with fake eyeballs called Wacko Specs. The eyeballs pop out of it, and one lands in a patron's glass of water. |
| 59 | * Tommy making a pie out of silverware and whipped cream. |
| 60 | * Tommy adding black pepper, onion powder and hot sauce to a bowl of soup. The chef preparing this doesn't notice that the soup is bubbling from being so hot and tastes some. He gags and runs off to get water. This same soup is later served to Mr. Mucklehoney. |
| 61 | * Stu discovers Tommy in a plate of noodles. He gets up, not realizing that Tommy tied his shoelaces to the table. He and the table then come crashing down in slow motion. The waiter then holds the platter with Tommy on it in Stu's direction and asks "Is this yours?" in a deadpan voice. |
| 62 | * Mucklehoney thinking the extra hot soup and Stu's incident with the table were all part of a prank. When asked if he arranged to set it up with the restaurant, Stu says "[[SureLetsGoWithThat Yeah]]." |
| 63 | !! At the Movies |
| 64 | * The parents take the kids to see The [[Franchise/CareBears Dummi Bears]] [[TakeThat Movie]]. Grandpa makes his thoughts on it quite clear: |
| 65 | -->'''[[IncomingHam Princess Dummi Bear]]:''' HELP! HELP! Someone's STOLEN the magic list!\ |
| 66 | '''Dummi Bear:''' Stolen!? B-but... without the list, this will become [[TitleDrop the land without smiles]]...\ |
| 67 | '''Grandpa:''' '''''"LAND WITHOUT BRAINS" IS MORE LIKE IT!!''''' |
| 68 | ** Later when Grandpa decides to leave the theater: |
| 69 | --->'''Grandpa''': I'm gonna get some candy. I'd rather rot my teeth than sit here and rot my ''brain.'' |
| 70 | * The babies sneak into a romance movie with a BigDamnKiss going on for a while. Lil gives us this gem. |
| 71 | --> "I hate kissing movies. [[ChildrenAreInnocent Nothing ever happens]]." |
| 72 | * When climbing down the seats, Phil accidentally grabs a woman's leg. She assumes it's the man next to her and slaps him. |
| 73 | * The adults end up being the ones getting totally engrossed, so much so that Didi had to comfort a tearful Stu over whether or not [[LittlestCancerPatient little Shauna lives]] when the film ends up getting cut short. |
| 74 | * The sound of ''The Land Without Smiles'' movie getting caught in the projector and burning... |
| 75 | -->'''Squeaky Bear:''' I know you're all wondering if little Shauna is going to pull through... ''(the others look aghast)'' Oh well... ''(warps a bit)'' [[TheUnreveal lookslikelittleShauna]], uh... ''(makes bubbling noises)'' |
| 76 | * A couple complains about the theater after it closes: |
| 77 | -->'''Man:''' What nerve! They didn't even give us our money back! Right when you're about to find out if [[Film/Ghost1990 the guy's a ghost]], the picture just goes black!\ |
| 78 | '''Woman:''' Worst theater I've ever been to.\ |
| 79 | '''Man:''' You're telling me! [[BrickJoke The popcorn here tastes like soda pop]]! |
| 80 | !! Slumber Party |
| 81 | * Angelica telling Tommy "only babies suck on bottles", when he ''is'' a baby. |
| 82 | * Tommy puking on Angelica, causing her to run off screaming, while Grandpa just proudly says, "That's my boy." |
| 83 | * Angelica tosses her dinner on the kitchen floor, and deadpans "and it was so ''yummy'' too!" |
| 84 | * Drew providing the first LampshadeHanging to Grandpa's ArcNumber references. |
| 85 | -->'''Lou:''' Why we had to walk—\ |
| 86 | '''Drew:''' ''How'' many miles, Pop?\ |
| 87 | '''Lou:''' ''Fifteen'' miles to school for your information in the snow, with no shoes! |
| 88 | !! Baby Commercial |
| 89 | * When Phil just stares as Jonathan tries to get him to act for the Tighties diapers commercial, Betty has a fat guy look after Lil. Lil leaves to play with her toy car, and somehow manages to crawl her way onto an overhead catwalk. |
| 90 | * Despite all the odds against Jonathan, such as Phil taking control of the camera, Lil swinging on a rope, and Lil's toy car [[DoomedSupermarketDisplay causing the diaper box pyramid to collapse]], the studio executives are very impressed with the final product. At the end of the episode, Jonathan goes to Phil and Lil's house and begs Betty to let Phil and Lil star in more commercials. Unfortunately for him, [[WeAreNotGoingThroughThatAgain Betty has had enough and refuses to let Phil and Lil star in any more commercials]]. |
| 91 | * At the end of the episode... |
| 92 | -->'''Tommy''': "So ''that's'' how you get in the TV?" |
| 93 | -->'''Twins''': "Yup, that's how you get in the TV!" |
| 94 | !! Little Dude |
| 95 | * "...just had this.....'''''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcjvRQvQgu8 WAAAAAAAAAAAAAASHED!!!!!!!]]'''''" |
| 96 | !! Beauty Contest |
| 97 | * Angelica singing a [[MondegreenGag mangled]] version of ''My Country Tis' of Thee''. |
| 98 | -->"''My Country Tears of Thee'',\ |
| 99 | ''Sweet Land of Lizardy'',\ |
| 100 | ''A bee I sing,''\ |
| 101 | ''Land that my father buys,''\ |
| 102 | ''Land of my chillin' pies,''\ |
| 103 | ''From every mountain's eyes,''\ |
| 104 | ''Let freedom REEK!''" |
| 105 | !! Baseball |
| 106 | * Tommy crawling onto the stadium's organ pedals, causing so much noise that he makes the speakers shake. |
| 107 | * When Didi sees Tommy on the TV and does her big slow-motion [[{{Fainting}} faint]] on the floor. |
| 108 | !! Ruthless Tommy |
| 109 | * Two kidnappers attempt to hold Tommy for ransom, thinking he's a millionaire's kid. They find him so difficult to handle, they return him. |
| 110 | ** Tommy inadvertently turns on the vacuum which starts sucking up the crooks' cash from a suitcase. One of them suggests turning it on in reverse, which gets both of them covered in dirt. |
| 111 | ** They then see Tommy reaching for his ball near an open window. Both of them make a dive for Tommy... but they both end up jumping out of the window. |
| 112 | !! Moose Country |
| 113 | * Boris tries to fill up his birdbath, but his hose stops working thanks to babies causing a geyser from the Pickles' sprinkler system. When the valve turns the sprinkler system off, Boris gets sprayed. |
| 114 | -->'''Boris''': AAH! MINKA! MINKA! TURN THIS MASHUGANA THING OFF! |
| 115 | !! Grandpa's Teeth |
| 116 | * The literal WildGooseChase (well, more like a Wild Duck Chase) that happens when Spike takes Grandpa Lou's fake teeth and the babies have to follow them to retrieve his teeth. |
| 117 | !! Momma Trauma |
| 118 | * Didi insists on taking Tommy to see a child psychologist because Tommy keeps coloring on the walls. Stu is against the idea until they actually get there... whereupon he ends up telling his entire life story, including every traumatizing thing Drew ever did to him. |
| 119 | !! Real or Robots? |
| 120 | * When Stu sleepwalks and imagines he's a TV magician. Didi finds him on the living room floor and... |
| 121 | -->'''Didi:''' Are you okay, honey?\ |
| 122 | '''Stu:''' ''(half asleep)'' Yeah, I guess so, Ramona.\ |
| 123 | '''Didi:''' [[MistakenForCheating Ramona? Who's Ramona]]!?\ |
| 124 | '''Stu:''' My assistant. |
| 125 | ** Or when he thinks he's hosting a cooking show, and starts absentmindedly throwing eggs around the kitchen. Then when Tommy and Chuckie stumble in on him... |
| 126 | --->'''Stu:''' (in an asleep, deadpan tone) [[SiblingRivalry Drew? What are you doing here? This is]] ''[[SiblingRivalry my]]'' [[SiblingRivalry cooking show, Drew. You're not tryin' to steal my secret recipe, are you?]] |
| 127 | * Tommy, believing his dad Stu is a robot, attempting to twist his "bolts" to "open" him up (read: clamping his toy wrench on Stu's nipples). Stu promptly wakes up in [[TheScream agony]]. |
| 128 | !! Special Delivery |
| 129 | * The Patty Pants doll was supposed to say, "I need a hug", but instead says, "I need a new diaper". |
| 130 | * Tommy thinks he's getting a sister delivered in the mail. When he sees a doll, he assumes it's her and asks what her mom's name is. The doll says, "Mama", and he says, "That's my mommy's name too!". Bonus points for his not realising how names worked, or that siblings have the same parents. |
| 131 | !! Candy Bar Creep Show |
| 132 | * The scene where the babies enter the Pickles' makeshift HauntedHouse and then proceed to (mostly) unintentionally horrify the kids who entered it (including Angelica) and even '''Grandpa Lou''' is definitely this; [[https://youtu.be/BqHOEuLaSyo see for yourself.]] In addition, the babies aren't scared of the props (such as a fake skeleton), yet Angelica is, despite her being supposedly more mature than them, and Grandpa Lou also says a few hilarious reaction lines upon seeing the babies. |
| 133 | !! Monster in the Garage |
| 134 | * Stu jumps onto the hood of the Pickles' car at the sight of the mouse. |
| 135 | -->'''Stu:''' ''(screams)'' A mouse! It's huge! Get it out of here!\ |
| 136 | '''Lou:''' Oh! For the love of Betsy, it's just a mouse. In my day, we thought nothing of finding herds of ''elk'' living in our garage. |
| 137 | !! Weaning Tommy |
| 138 | * Tommy pulling a trick on Lou at the end of the episode. After Stu and Didi leave his room with their bottles, Lou doesn't realize that his is missing until he's in the hallway. It turns out Tommy pretended to be asleep and swiped Lou's bottle when he wasn't paying attention. |
| 139 | !! Incident in Aisle Seven |
| 140 | * This exchange when Lou and Tommy leave to go to Grocery World: |
| 141 | -->'''Didi:''' I hope they come back with something besides forty boxes of Fudgy Ding-a-ling bars.\ |
| 142 | '''Stu:''' I hope they come back. |
| 143 | !! Touchdown Tommy |
| 144 | * The babies play football with a bottle of chocolate milk, and in the background, an announcer is heard. It culminates in Angelica finally getting the bottle, only to find out that the milk got emptied out during the ordeal. Her [[LargeHam overly hammy]] reaction sells it! |
| 145 | -->'''Angelica:''' It's EMPTY! AAAAAAGH! |
| 146 | * Overall, the announcer's commentary when juxtaposed with the babies' pursuit of the chocolate milk. |
| 147 | * When Pop went to university, he was nicknamed the Galloping...Geezer? |
| 148 | ** To be fair, it was Drew who cracked that joke before Lou could finish his sentence. |
| 149 | !! The Trial |
| 150 | * "Do you swear to tell Ruth, the whole Ruth, and nothing but Ruth, so help you Bob?" |
| 151 | * "The jury?" "Not the jury, the JERKY!" |
| 152 | ** "The fudge?!" "No, JUDGE! [[HypocriticalHumor Can't you babies talk right?!]]" |
| 153 | * "I guess the persecutor's the poopetrator this time." |
| 154 | !! Fluffy vs Spike |
| 155 | !! Reptar's Revenge |
| 156 | * Didi it turns out is terrified of clowns - to the point of screaming "get it away!" as if the clown was a fly buzzing around her head. Makes Chuckie's later fear of clowns look quite dignified. |
| 157 | * Angelica gets [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor exactly what she wished for]] going on the Nausea Whirl. When the ride finally stops, she totters off with MessyHair, deranged eyes and thinking Didi is Stu. |
| 158 | * Didi and Stu have a very melodramatic romantic moment in the Tunnel of Love that Angelica witnesses and responds with "bleh!" - only for the guy in the Reptar suit to scare her from behind. |
| 159 | ** What's more is that Stu and Didi are about to kiss when Reptar guy jumps out of the water and scares them like out of some 50s B-movie. |
| 160 | * Towards the end of the episode, a guy dressed as Reptar who's down on his luck named Leo tells his boss about what happened. When his boss fires him for his incompetence, Leo goes rip-roaring mad! |
| 161 | -->'''Boss:''' That's it, Leo! I've had it! You've been nothing but trouble since day one! You're fired!\ |
| 162 | '''Leo:''' Fire--'''''FIRED!? YOU CAN'T FIRE ME! [[PunctuatedForEmphasis ME! REPTAR!]] [[VillainousBreakdown ROOAAR!!!]]'''''\ |
| 163 | ''*Leo goes on a rampage while [[OhCrap his boss runs for his life]]*'' |
| 164 | !! Graham Canyon |
| 165 | * Angelica accidentally leaves Cynthia in Stu's car while it's being "fixed" courtesy of a couple of crooked "mechanics." Tommy and Angelica go after Cynthia, knocking over and spilling things, crawling all over the car, and generally making the situation devolve into chaos, per the norm. The catch is, the mechanics have their backs turned and don't see any of this. They think the car is haunted, and ''beg'' Stu to leave--after giving him a free, legit repair job. Also doubles as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome. |
| 166 | !! Stu-Maker's Elves |
| 167 | * Chuckie bounces up and down on a mattress and has fun but then bounces so much that the mattress closes leaving his head sticking out. That visual and his scream of "TOMMY!!!!" are priceless. |
| 168 | ** MATTRESS BOY! |
| 169 | [[/folder]] |
| 170 | |
| 171 | [[folder: Season Two]] |
| 172 | !! Toy Palace |
| 173 | * Toy Palace has a functioning time machine, which near the end of the episode sends the Thorg toy back to the crossing of the Delaware in 1776. Should give you an idea of how much DenserAndWackier the show became from there on out. |
| 174 | * "Cowboys and [[{{Malaproper}} Injuries]]!" |
| 175 | !! Sand Ho! |
| 176 | * This line: |
| 177 | -->'''Tommy:''' REAL PIRATES LIKE SAND IN THEIR SHOES! |
| 178 | * While the babies are digging for treasure, they suddenly stop: |
| 179 | -->'''Chuckie:''' Is this the treasure? |
| 180 | -->'''Tommy:''' Nah, that's cat poop. Keep digging. |
| 181 | ** The goofy smile on Tommy's face after he says it makes it even funnier. |
| 182 | !! Chuckie vs. the Potty |
| 183 | * When Chuckie [[PottyFailure has an accident]] after his first unsuccessful attempt to use his potty, Didi feels discouraged as she cleans up the mess. Stu tells her that many children weren't potty-trained at age two, and reluctantly tells her that he was one of them, much to her shock. Lou overhears, and tells Didi that it took so long to potty-train Stu, that he almost didn't get into the boy scouts. |
| 184 | * According to Angelica, people who aren't potty-trained can't "go to school, or drive a car, or join the Army!" |
| 185 | * Didi's line to Stu when sitting Chuckie on his potty. |
| 186 | -->'''Didi''': "Pull down his pants. Not his shirt, his ''pants''!" |
| 187 | * Chas telling Chuckie to be good for Didi and Stu, use his potty... and not eat earthworms, breathe in noxious fumes or drink radioactive waste. Didi gets increasingly annoyed by this, and shoves Chas out the door before he can continue. |
| 188 | * Didi [[CensorshipBySpelling spells out, "potty" so that Chuckie won't understand]]. However, [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike Chas doesn't understand either]]. |
| 189 | !! Together at Last |
| 190 | * Betty reluctantly agrees to give Phil and Lil some time apart, but Phil quickly gets bored without his sister. He tries playing with his teddy bear Bill, but this devolves into a one-sided argument until Phil says, "Naw, you're the un-fun one, Bill! Can't even argue!" |
| 191 | * Phil and Lil argue over who started the fight that got them separated at the end of the episode. Tommy and Chuckie [[ShrugTake look at each other and shrug]]. |
| 192 | !! The Big House |
| 193 | * All the children at the daycare (besides Tommy himself) have funny nicknames: the knowledgeable one is Wiseguy, the tough one is Big Justin, the one who plays with blocks is the Builder, the one who plays with clay is Doughboy, and the one who [[CrocodileTears pretends to cry]] is Crybaby. |
| 194 | !! The Shot |
| 195 | * When Tommy and his new friend try to sneak out of the doctor's office, Angelica suddenly shows up. |
| 196 | -->'''Didi:''' Drew! Angelica! |
| 197 | -->'''Tommy:''' Drat. |
| 198 | * Phil and Lil think a booster shot is called a "''rooster'' shot" and turns you into a rooster. |
| 199 | * When Chuckie is explaining what getting a shot is like, he describes the doctor's couch as a "freezing cold ironing board" and then states that when the doctor gets out the syringe, he changes from "a nice old guy who smells funny to a ''crazy'' old guy who smells funny." |
| 200 | * [[TheStoolPigeon Angelica tries to tattle on Tommy and Hector trying to run away]], but Drew tells her to be patient. When he finally does get to say what happened, [[HypocriticalHumor Drew chides her for not speaking up sooner]]. Angelica's not amused. |
| 201 | !! Showdown at Teeter-Totter Gulch |
| 202 | * Tommy & Chuckie's WildWest style showdown with the "Junk Food Kid". She smacks Chuckie across the cheek with a chocolate bar, leaving an imprint (''"I've been [[StealthPun branded]]!"'') Tommy bends over to help him up, and she shoves a popsicle down the back of his diaper. |
| 203 | -->''Yeow! It's cold!'' |
| 204 | * After Belinda had to get he cute curly hair cut due to the Junkfood Kid popping gum in it, we get some masterful BrutalHonesty from Chuckie: |
| 205 | -->'''Chuckie:''' You're almost as bald as Tommy!\ |
| 206 | '''Belinda:''' (''[[NiceJobBreakingItHero starts crying]]'')\ |
| 207 | '''Tommy:''' Don't worry Belinda! We'll make sure the Junkfood Kid stays out of your hair!\ |
| 208 | '''Chuckie:''' [[DiggingYourselfDeeper Or what's left of it!]] |
| 209 | * [[TheBully Prudence the Junk Food Kid]] is voiced by Creator/NancyCartwright (who would later voice Chuckie Finster after Creator/ChristineCavanaugh retired) using her [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Nelson Muntz (pre-season 10 and barring "Lisa's Date with Density")]] voice when she's mean and her Ralph Wiggum/Todd Flanders voice when [[HeelFaceTurn she turns nice]]. |
| 210 | * The day after Tommy's final showdown with the "Junk Food Kid" |
| 211 | --> '''Tommy:''' Gotta go. Sometimes, a fellow's just gotta be movin' on. |
| 212 | --> '''Belinda:''' Movin' on? |
| 213 | --> '''Tommy:''' Yep! I'm heading home to have myself a juice, snuggle with my blankie and go nap-nap. |
| 214 | --> '''Belinda:''' Are you ever comin' back? |
| 215 | --> '''Tommy:''' Could be. |
| 216 | --> '''Belinda:''' But when, Tommy, when? |
| 217 | --> '''Tommy:''' I don't know, maybe tomorrow. |
| 218 | !! Mirrorland |
| 219 | * Didi of all people gets in a good line with Lou. |
| 220 | --> '''Lou:''' In my day, we had no time for antiques. |
| 221 | -->'''Didi:''' But Pop, I thought back in your day there ''were'' no antiques. |
| 222 | * Didi gets caught by Grandpa in the pink tutu. He cheekily asks her "where's the ballet?" - and she blushes. |
| 223 | !! Angelica's In Love |
| 224 | * This exchange: |
| 225 | -->'''Angelica:''' I'm playing the most dangerous game of all. |
| 226 | -->'''Chuckie:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Musical chairs?]] |
| 227 | -->'''Angelica:''' No, dummy, LOVE!!! |
| 228 | !! Ice Cream Mountain |
| 229 | * This exchange between Drew and Stu. |
| 230 | -->'''Drew''': Um, what do you say to a little bet? Maybe... five bucks per hole? |
| 231 | -->'''Stu''': ''(out loud)'' Shame on you, Drew! Betting is a bad, bad thing! ''(quietly)'' [[HypocriticalHumor Make it ten]]. |
| 232 | * The babies noisily eat their ice cream during the credits. Right before the closing logos, one of them burps. |
| 233 | !! Regarding Stuie |
| 234 | * The premise is already worthy of a chuckle: Stu hits his head and thinks he's a baby due to the inevitable EasyAmnesia. |
| 235 | * The babies decide that "Stuie" needs a diaper since he's now a baby, and make one from a sheet hanging on a clothesline. Stu's still wearing it when he's back to normal, much to Didi's shock. |
| 236 | -->'''Didi:''' Stu! What are you doing wearing that sheet?! |
| 237 | * Preceding a rather [[TearJerker somber]] moment, Lil stops crying over a broken toy so she can watch in awe over "Stuie's" even louder wailing. |
| 238 | !! Garage Sale |
| 239 | * When Stu first discovers that everything in the house has been sold, he screams so loud that the satellite dish falls off his roof. |
| 240 | * After the babies have sold everything inside the house, and when Stu is brooding about it, Didi comes along with a [[AnAesop little speech about how they still have each other and losing all their material goods can bring them closer.]] Stu's response? |
| 241 | -->'''Stu:''' [[ShutUpKirk Put a sock in it, Deed.]] |
| 242 | !! Let There Be Light |
| 243 | * This exchange when the blackout first happens, primarily because of Stu's tone: |
| 244 | -->'''Didi:''' ''(completely calmly, like she's announcing something he must not know yet)'' [[CaptainObvious Stu, honey, all the lights in the house are off!]] |
| 245 | -->'''Stu:''' I'm aware of that, ''Deed.'' |
| 246 | * This conversation between the twins and Chuckie: |
| 247 | -->'''Phil:''' Why are you under your blanket? |
| 248 | -->'''Chuckie:''' 'Cause it's dark out there! |
| 249 | -->'''Lil:''' But it's dark under there, too. |
| 250 | -->'''Chuckie:''' ''({{beat}})'' Gee, I never thought of that. |
| 251 | * Chuckie's reaction when Tommy begins planning The Quest of the Week: |
| 252 | -->'''Chuckie:''' ''(from under his blanket)'' No way, I'm not goin'! Not this time! This isn't just regular-plain-old scary, Tommy. This is THE DARK! There's no light at all, not even a night light! Forget it, Tommy. I'm. Stayin'. Right. Here. |
| 253 | -->'''Tommy:''' [[FineYouCanJustWaitHereAlone Okay, Chuckie, whatever you say.]] |
| 254 | -->''(the other three go off, leaving Chuckie sitting silently under the blanket for a minute)'' |
| 255 | -->'''Chuckie:''' ''(panicking and running after them, still under the blanket)'' Hey, wait, you're not gonna leave me?! WAIT! I'm coming, too!! |
| 256 | !! The Bank Trick |
| 257 | * Tommy and Chuckie's search for candy (they [[MondegreenGag misheard]] ATM as [[Advertising/MAndMs M&M]]) [[AccidentalHero results in the capture of two notorious bank robbers]]. |
| 258 | * [[https://youtu.be/JzlYBag-abc The entire bit]] involving Chuckie causing chaos in the commodities market. |
| 259 | !! Family Reunion |
| 260 | * One of the attending grandmas tries to lift Cousin Emmett from the playpen and gives up with a hilarious squawk. |
| 261 | * The RunningGag of Emmett saying, "I'm hungry!", particularly during this exchange when Tommy and his cousins wonder whether or not they should [[SaveTheVillain save Angelica from an angry goat]]; |
| 262 | -->'''Tommy:''' Hey, that's Angelica! It sounds like she's in trouble!\ |
| 263 | '''Tammy:''' She was awfully mean. I don't think we should help her, Tommy!\ |
| 264 | '''Tommy:''' No, we gotta help her! She's a Pickles, too!\ |
| 265 | '''Emmett:''' Pickles? I'm hungry! |
| 266 | !! Grandpa's Date |
| 267 | * The sounds Stu makes when his couch invention malfunctions. |
| 268 | * Grandpa's bedtime story: |
| 269 | -->"Once upon a time there was a very lonely bunny who needed to find some friends and he found some friends and everyone was happy. The End!" |
| 270 | * When Grandpa says at the end of a list of movies, "...And my personal favorite: Lonely Space Vixens. "That's [[DirtyOldMan for after you go to bed]]." |
| 271 | * The music Lou and Morgana play for their dance. |
| 272 | !! No Bones About It |
| 273 | * Lou's vanity license plate: "I'MOLD". |
| 274 | * Lou tries to hide from security guard Sally Payson by posing as [[NobodyHereButUsStatues a knight with armor]]. Sally isn't fooled. |
| 275 | * Tommy takes a toe bone from the giant dinosaur skeleton. Unfortunately for Grandpa, Sally catches him red handed with the bone. She kicks them out of the museum, ignoring Grandpa's warning to put the bone back. Sure enough, the skeleton collapses on top of a screaming Sally. |
| 276 | * The following day's newspaper has a story about Sally facing legal trouble for what happened at the museum. The headline has a picture of Sally with a scowl. |
| 277 | !! Beach Blanket Babies |
| 278 | * This conversation: |
| 279 | -->'''Chuckie:''' We look silly, we're sticky, and we smell like a coconut cream pie.\ |
| 280 | '''Angelica:''' ''(Runs by)'' Look at me! Look at me!\ |
| 281 | '''Tommy:''' ''(Deadpan)'' Well, at least we don't look like ''that''. |
| 282 | * Chuckie sees his dad buried in the sand, only his head is visible. Chuckie's reaction is priceless. |
| 283 | -->'''Chuckie:''' MY DAD'S BEEN [[BabyTalk DECAFFEINATED]]!!! |
| 284 | * Lou and Boris arguing over how to play a card game, to the point where the other adults have to keep them from hitting each other. Boris then takes the entire deck. |
| 285 | -->'''Boris:''' I've got a card game for you, [[LampshadeHanging Mr. Fifteen Years]]!\ |
| 286 | '''Lou:''' Oh, yeah? What's that!?\ |
| 287 | '''Boris:''' FIFTY-TWO PICKUP! ''(spreads cards across the beach)''\ |
| 288 | '''Lou:''' Aw, my cards! |
| 289 | !! Reptar on Ice |
| 290 | * This conversation between Stu and Lou. |
| 291 | -->'''Lou''': In my day, dinosaurs didn't skate around with a bunch of ninnys in tights!\ |
| 292 | '''Stu''': (''whispers to Didi'') In his day, the dinosaurs were ''real''.\ |
| 293 | '''Lou''': I heard that! |
| 294 | * Lou initially was not looking forward to the show (much like his attitude in "At The Movies"), even at one point joking that he hoped they screwed up and held a hockey game instead. However, he eventually becomes engrossed in the storyline to the degree that he starts ''[[TearsOfJoy crying his eyes out]]'' in response to the "touching" duet between Reptar and the reporter. |
| 295 | * When Leo (the Reptar actor) and the actress playing the reporter bride discover the babies on the ice. |
| 296 | -->'''Reporter:''' ''(whispers)'' Quick! Do something! ''(leaves)''\ |
| 297 | '''Leo:''' ''(stammers, then starts singing)'' Hey! Look! It's some kids! ''On the ice!'' What's a dinosaur to do/when there's kids on the ice? Quick! Somebody call their '''MOOOOOMMMMMM!''' |
| 298 | * Didi asks why the kids are out on the ice. Lou holds up a pamphlet and says, "It's not in the program, that's for sure!" |
| 299 | * Leo asks what Tommy has in his hands, and Tommy proudly shows him the lizard. Leo screams "YAAAHH! GET IT AWAY FROM ME!" and skates away, picking up the reporter and knocking down several actors. |
| 300 | * Tommy puts the little lizard mistaken for Reptar's baby in his diaper. It crawls around inside, tickling him, and when Didi comes to get him, she thought he was making funny faces and does one back. |
| 301 | !! Family Feud |
| 302 | * Stu puts Howard in his place: |
| 303 | -->'''Howard:''' [[MistakenForThief Betty a thief?! That's an absurd proposition!]]\ |
| 304 | '''Stu:''' [[NoYou YOU'RE AN ABSURD PROPOSITION!!]] |
| 305 | * When the group is playing charades, Howard guesses that Stu is a piñata: |
| 306 | -->'''Stu:''' A ''piñata''!? |
| 307 | * Howard fails to guess Stu's rendition of ''Film/DancesWithWolves'': |
| 308 | --> '''Howard:''' I don't really like musicals.\ |
| 309 | '''Stu:''' It isn't a musical, you imbecile! |
| 310 | * After Howard realizes that Stu [[IResembleThatRemark called him an imbecile]]: |
| 311 | -->'''Stu:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Say, very good, Howard. And that only took you 15 seconds]]. |
| 312 | * While the Pickles and the [=DeVilles=] make up, Stu apologizes for calling Howard a fathead. Then, when everyone is leaving... |
| 313 | --> '''Howard:''' [[DelayedReaction Wait a minute... You called me a fathead]]?! |
| 314 | * Phil and Lil think watches are called "times". Their reason? Adults look at them and say, "Look at the time!". |
| 315 | !! Superhero Chuckie |
| 316 | * Angelica suggesting that Captain Blasto try "flying" without the rope. |
| 317 | * Didi asks Angelica if she liked Captain Blasto. "Oh yes, Aunt Didi, if you like old fat guys [[UnderwearOfPower who wear their underwear on the outside.]]" |
| 318 | * Didi has her exercise machine set to high and is unable to stop it on her own. |
| 319 | --> '''Didi:''' STU! [[WesternAnimation/TheJetsons STOP THIS CRAZY THING]]! |
| 320 | !! The Dog Broomer |
| 321 | * Lil getting scared the first two times the babies think the Dog Broomer is coming. |
| 322 | ** When the landscaper rings the doorbell, Phil hides in a hutch while a screaming Lil stays put. Phil gets her to stop by grabbing her and pulling her inside. She loses one of her shoes before Phil closes the door. |
| 323 | ** Lil screams again when the insurance salesman arrives. Phil covers her mouth quicker before they hide beneath a tablecloth on a chair. |
| 324 | !! Aunt Miriam |
| 325 | * Grandpa saying he'd rather go to [[PlaceWorseThanDeath the Motel Styx]] than deal with Aunt Miriam. |
| 326 | * Miriam's RunningGag of getting Didi's name wrong. The complete list of names is - Dolly, Kelly, Sally, Ginny, and Fifi. And at the very end... |
| 327 | --> '''Stu:''' You know, I'm gonna miss her. She sure is a great aunt, huh, Fifi? |
| 328 | --> '''Didi:''' [[SkywardScream IT'S DIDI!!!!!]] |
| 329 | !! The Inside Story |
| 330 | * When the babies try and work out how to get the seed out of Chuckie, they suggest making him throw up, since he apparently does it all the time. In order to defend it as as something that "just happens", Chuckie recounts a story of how he was on a car ride with his dad as he sang "Old [=MacDonald=]", [[TemptingFate and he just threw up without warning.]] |
| 331 | -->'''Tommy, Phil and Lil''': [[KickTheDog (singing)]] ''[[WithFriendsLikeThese Old MacDonald had a farm-]]'' |
| 332 | -->'''Chuckie''': '''''STOP!''''' |
| 333 | * Angelica ultimately has to have it spelled out for her as she's in ''mid-action'' that even if she ''does'' go through with making the watermelon grow inside Chuckie's stomach, ''[[DidNotThinkThisThrough she will be still inside when it happens]]''. |
| 334 | * There's a bit of fridge humor in how the AllJustADream angle is handled: apparently ''immediately'' after falling asleep, Chuckie burped up the seed before the babies and Angelica could attempt to do the FantasticVoyagePlot. [[HereWeGoAgain And then Spike eats the seed.]] |
| 335 | -->'''Angelica''': [[GainaxEnding (as everyone is bathed in a white light; slightly worried) Anyone ever been inside a dog before?]] |
| 336 | !! A Visit From Lipschitz |
| 337 | * The start of the episode references the 1967 film ''Film/GuessWhosComingToDinner'': |
| 338 | -->'''Didi:''' Stu, you'll never guess who's coming to dinner! |
| 339 | -->'''Stu:''' Creator/SidneyPoitier? |
| 340 | ** Tommy and Chuckie consistently referring to Lipschitz as [[ItIsDehumanizing "it."]] |
| 341 | !! What the Big People Do |
| 342 | * The term "paper pusher" is taken literally. |
| 343 | * Tommy gets Reptar On Ice [[{{Pun}} tickets]] for speeding. |
| 344 | * The ending, when Tommy and Chuckie are back in reality and breathe a sigh of relief: |
| 345 | -->'''Angelica''': Oh boys... time to play '''''HOUSE'''''!!! WHAHAHAHAHA!! ''(Tommy and Chuckie scream)'' |
| 346 | !! The Santa Experience |
| 347 | * '''"SANTA CLAUS IS A FAKE! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!"''' |
| 348 | ** Doubling as an awesome moment for Angelica, the incident that leads to the above moment; Angelica is doing the usual "sitting on Santa's lap" thing, before suddenly realizing the FridgeLogic of why she has to ''tell'' Santa what she wants [[TheOmniscient when he's supposed to already know]]. |
| 349 | * Drew wants somebody to play Santa Claus for Angelica. Chas volunteers to do so, but Drew would rather hire a professional. Chas then brings up getting the title role in their fourth grade play of ''Literature/TheWindInTheWillows''. |
| 350 | --> '''Drew''': Chas, [[PlayingATree you were a tree]]. |
| 351 | --> '''Chas''': I was the ''willow''! |
| 352 | * Angelica's guessing game with Lil doesn't go quite as planned. |
| 353 | --> '''Angelica''': What's Phil's favoritest toy in the whole world? |
| 354 | --> '''Lil''': Umm... his building blocks? |
| 355 | --> '''Angelica''': No, think again... |
| 356 | --> '''Lil''': His pop-up book? |
| 357 | --> '''Angelica''': One more time... |
| 358 | --> '''Lil''': His stuffed alligator with the missing eye? |
| 359 | --> '''Angelica''': NO! His Reptar doll. |
| 360 | --> '''Lil''': Oh, yeah. |
| 361 | --> '''Angelica''': Now, what could you give him to make his Reptar doll better? |
| 362 | --> '''Lil''': Another Reptar doll to be his friend? |
| 363 | --> '''Angelica''': No... |
| 364 | --> '''Lil''': A "Reptar On Ice" sing-along record? |
| 365 | --> '''Angelica''': ''No''... |
| 366 | --> '''Lil''': I know! ''(pretends to surf)'' A Reptar surfboard! |
| 367 | --> '''Angelica''': ''NO!'' ''(Lil falls to the floor)'' A Reptar space helmet, ''dummy''! |
| 368 | * When the adults decide to have a "traditional" Christmas in the woods, they immediately start making plans: |
| 369 | -->'''Didi''': I'll call the travel agency and get a cabin! |
| 370 | -->'''Stu''': I'll go buy some lights and ornaments. |
| 371 | -->'''Lou''': I'll drink a couple of quarts of eggnog and fall asleep in front of the TV! |
| 372 | * Chuckie and Tommy are going through the house, trying to check for places to set up traps for Santa. What do they say when they get to the chimney? |
| 373 | -->'''Tommy''': [[{{Malaproper}} Chimbley]]...\ |
| 374 | '''Chuckie''': (incredulously) Chimbley?\ |
| 375 | '''Tommy''': [[EntertaininglyWrong Aww, yer right, no one in their right mind would ever try to come down a chimbley...]] |
| 376 | * Practically the whole "going to chop down a Christmas Tree" part of the episode, with even the segue ''into'' it being funny. |
| 377 | ** Angelica has done a mean trick on Phil and Lil, similar to a GiftOfTheMagiPlot, but now wants to fix it to avoid getting coal for Christmas. She's been trying, and failing, to get a moment to talk this out with Phil and Lil for a bit, and then Betty comes up to announce they're going to go get a tree. |
| 378 | ---> '''Angelica''': As soon as we get on the sled, we'll be able to talk... |
| 379 | ---> (Cut to Angelica on the sled, making muffled sounds through her thick winter clothing, which is covering her mouth and nose, with a clearly ''extremely'' irritated expression on her face) |
| 380 | ** This line from Angelica: |
| 381 | --->'''Angelica''': It all started when the first present was given by the Pilgrims a long long time ago. After that, everybody started giving presents. Even the Easter Bunny started giving them until Santa slapped him with a lawsuit. |
| 382 | *** Even funnier, Angelica is saying this as an awkward attempt to try and explain her GiftOfTheMagiPlot trick that she played on Phil and Lil. While she explains this, they're all outside in the snow, and Angelica climbs up on the sled that was used by the adults to bring them along. The only problem is, they're up on a hill, and Angelica doesn't notice the sled starting to slide because of her standing on top of it... |
| 383 | ---->(After the above explanation about presents from Angelica)\ |
| 384 | '''Angelica''': So anyway, what I'm trying to say is...YAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!\ |
| 385 | (The sled, with Angelica still standing on it and yelling, then goes sliding down the snowy hill until it crashes into another hill, burying the sled in the snow at the bottom, while Angelica gets launched further into the snow, leaving an imprint of her in it) |
| 386 | ** Betty and Didi are trying to pick out a tree, with Didi rejecting Betty's selections because they are "too small" or "that one doesn't have enough branches in the back". Betty urges her to just pick one already, and Didi spots one that she thinks is perfect, and gushes over it. Betty then goes to chop it down, only for Didi to stop her ''because'' the tree is so perfect. Betty then gives her an unamused look. |
| 387 | * Charlotte's rant on the phone to Jonathan, a funny juxtaposition of everyone putting up the Christmas decorations: |
| 388 | --> '''Charlotte''': What am I kidding? There's no problem here; I'm a problem solver. I just inherently know what to do. You call me up, I know the answer. I was born with the talent. Yeah, I know, I know. Well listen, I know more than any lawyer. You don't have to start with me. ''(laughs)'' I'm not afraid. What are you kidding? They call me; they consult with me. Oh, is that right? Well listen, I have a couple of things to tell them; I don't know why I should bother. I'm not gonna stoop so low. I have better things to do with my time, I can tell you that much. Are you kidding? Certainly not. I can't leave that office for one minute without something just... ah, for heaven's sakes. Well of course I know what to do. I inherently know what to do with everything. I pay you, and I pay you plenty! |
| 389 | ** Moments later: |
| 390 | ---> '''Charlotte''': ''(on phone)'' Tell those personnel people to remove paragraph 3 and replace it with a Santa Claus, uh, I mean a ''sanity'' clause. |
| 391 | * While the adults are putting up decorations, Grandpa Lou is putting up a wreath for the fireplace, and goes to hammer in the nail to hang it on. Cue Spike barking just as he goes to swing the hammer, causing him to hit his finger instead of the nail, leaving Lou glaring at Spike angrily. This also serves as a BrickJoke to earlier, where Lou hurt his thumb a similar way all on his own trying to put a wreath up over the door, which was followed by Spike accidentally knocking over the chair he was standing on by coming out the doggie door. |
| 392 | ** During dinner, Lou, now with both thumb ''and'' finger bandaged, gets startled by Spike barking [[RuleOfThree again]], leading to him glaring at Spike once again. |
| 393 | * Angelica, worrying that she might be on the Bad list, decides to call Santa to check. It doesn't go well: |
| 394 | -->'''Cogs Unlimited Manager''': ''(Answers the phone)'' Cogs unlimited. |
| 395 | -->'''Angelica''': I'd like to speak with Santa Claus, please. |
| 396 | -->'''Manager''': Huh? |
| 397 | -->'''Angelica''': I need to talk to Santa right away. It's very important. |
| 398 | -->'''Manager''': I think you've got the wrong... |
| 399 | -->'''Angelica''': LET ME TALK TO SANTA! |
| 400 | -->'''Manager''': Alright! ''(beat)'' [[SureLetsGoWithThat This is Santa Claus. How can I help you?]] |
| 401 | -->'''Angelica''': Hello Santa, this is Angelica Pickles. |
| 402 | -->'''Manager''': Ah, yes. Hello Angelica. |
| 403 | -->'''Angelica''': I'm just wondering if I'm on the Good list or the Bad list this year? |
| 404 | -->'''Manager''': Hm, let me check with one of my elves...Oh yes, Angelica...Oh, yes, [[{{Troll}} you're on the]] ''[[{{Troll}} Bad]]'' [[{{Troll}} list.]] Thanks for calling! ''(click)'' |
| 405 | * The guy who was supposed to play Santa for the families at the cabin calls to cancel, saying his car broke down in the blizzard. In actuality, he's at home and just didn't feel like doing it. |
| 406 | --> '''Drew''': WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T MAKE IT!? |
| 407 | --> '''Guy''': I hate Christmas. ''(lays in the recliner to watch TV)'' |
| 408 | !! Visitors from Outer Space |
| 409 | * Angelica blasting through the doors only for George the fish alien to tell her with an annoyed voice "You know, these doors do open automatically." |
| 410 | !! The Case of the Missing Rugrat |
| 411 | * When Tommy meets a parrot, he introduces himself, and it repeats, "My name's Tommy", causing Tommy to think they both have the same name. Also, when the parrot says, "You can talk" as a response to Tommy saying that, he responds, "I know ''I'' can talk." |
| 412 | ** A more layered one--Tommy asks the parrot if the two old ladies, Emma and Clarice, are imprisoning it too, to which it replies by squawking "crazy ladies" over and over. Thing is, Tommy ''didn't call the old ladies "crazy"'', so the parrot must be mimicking someone else in response. Given that there are only three other people in the house and it's unlikely that the Pendragon sisters would refer to themselves that way, it's most likely copying something [[ServileSnarker their butler Max]] said in private. |
| 413 | !! Chuckie Loses His Glasses |
| 414 | * The other babies try on Chuckie's glasses, and assume that the blurry images are how he sees the world. They comment, "No wonder he's always so scared." |
| 415 | * When Chuckie finally gets his glasses back from Angelica at the end of the episode, Tommy wonders whose glasses were the ones Chuckie stepped on and broke. He, Chuckie, Phil and Lil soon find out when they see Lou looking for his glasses and asking Tommy's clown lamp if it's seen them, having mistaken it for Didi. |
| 416 | * Angelica, dizzy from wearing Chuckie's glasses, [[VomitIndiscretionShot throws up all over Drew’s sweater]]. |
| 417 | !! Chuckie Gets Skunked |
| 418 | * Grandpa Lou admonishes Stu and Chaz for running away from the skunk out of "pure and simple fear". When Stu points out that he ran as well, Grandpa talks about how fear is a basic survival strategy. |
| 419 | * The adults try using perfume to get the smell of the skunk's spray off Chuckie. Chas says that it didn't work, and now he just smells like "a skunk who's getting ready for a hot date". |
| 420 | * Grandpa Lou tries the borscht after Chuckie has soaked in it and says that it "tastes better than usual." |
| 421 | * Boris gives a WhenIWasYourAge speech about how "In the old country, we grew up sleeping with the goats!" Didi immediately tells everyone, "Don't listen to him. [[BlatantLies He actually came from a very well-to-do family -- he wouldn't know a goat if it bit him]]." |
| 422 | !! Rebel Without a Teddy Bear |
| 423 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3rqlk5r3QI Tommy's failed attempt at being bad]]. He's told to spill some juice but drinks it, then knocks over the glass. |
| 424 | * When Tommy refuses to throw away Didi's necklace (with some coercing from Chuckie), Angelica tries to convince Tommy that if he doesn't continue to be bad, like she is, his parents will keep taking away his favorite things. |
| 425 | -->'''Angelica:''' They'll take away your lion and your dog and your bottle and all your toys till' you have nothing but your diapers! And then they'll take those, too! |
| 426 | !! Angelica the Magnificent |
| 427 | * At the end, Tommy picks up Angelica's supposedly magic wand. He points it at the shed the dads spent all episode putting together and utters a "magic" word[[note]]"kalamazoo"[[/note]]. The shed promptly collapses (though due to shaky workmanship), but the look on Tommy's face and the way he slowly lowers his arms are priceless. |
| 428 | * One of Angelica's "magic words" is "Ali-Ali Baba". |
| 429 | !! Meet the Carmichaels |
| 430 | * Susie in general is a goldmine in this episode for fans used to her saintly mentor persona in future episodes. She's introduced as a wailing crybaby who immediately [[MoodWhiplash stops and goes cheerful]] as soon as [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny she meets Tommy]]. |
| 431 | * The montage of Susie opening doors in an attempt to find her room. She first finds a closet, followed by a staircase to the attic. [[RuleOfThree The third]] is a bathroom. |
| 432 | -->'''Tommy:''' Your room is a potty? |
| 433 | !! The Box |
| 434 | * While the babies keep imagining a box as all sorts of fantasy backdrops, Angelica, who just sees a plain cardboard box, just doesn't see the fun in it at all. When the box is seemingly destroyed, the babies then pretend the leftover pieces are props such as swords and tribal masks, leading Angelica to snatch them all and stomp on them in frustration while the babies watch dumbfounded. |
| 435 | -->'''Angelica:''' ''*jumping on the box pieces*'' YOU! DUMB! BABIES! STOP! HAVING! FUN! IT'S JUST! A STUPID! BOOOXXXX!!! |
| 436 | * The writers perfectly capture through Stu and the Kiddie Carnival exactly how needing to assemble something at home always makes us feel: "I've tried everything! I'm a failure as a toy builder, a father, and a human being!" |
| 437 | !! Down the Drain |
| 438 | * Chuckie has a record with a song about how you can't get sucked down the drain, and describes it as "a voice that told me the truth" while choir music plays in the background and heavenly light pours through the window. The name on the sleeve reads "Fear Not Records." |
| 439 | * Tommy's and Chuckie's attempts to plug the drain. They first stick [[BlandNameProduct clay doh]] into the drain, causing the tub to overflow. The second attempt involved them filling the tub with sand. |
| 440 | * Chaz wearing the "bathtime puppets" when the first clogging happened. After the plumber fixes it, he tries thanking him as one of the puppets, squeaky voice included, before he quickly corrects himself. |
| 441 | * Angelica's amazing scream after the plumber rescues Cynthia from the toilet. |
| 442 | !! Let Them Eat Cake |
| 443 | * When Elaine doesn't show up for the ceremony and the event planners can't find her, Stu tells everyone not to worry and figures that Elaine probably just got cold feet--and when Stu claims that Didi disappeared for three days before their own wedding, this earns him an elbow from his wife. |
| 444 | ** Chas ''nods in agreement'' when Stu brings Didi's disappearance up. |
| 445 | * The organist for the wedding ceremony playing "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" before catching her mistake. |
| 446 | * Stu accidentally catches a bouquet which Didi throws back. |
| 447 | -->'''Didi''': He's already married! |
| 448 | !! The Seven Voyages of Cynthia |
| 449 | * Tommy and Chuckie lose Angelica's doll, but are afraid to tell her: |
| 450 | -->'''Tommy:''' Hey, Angelica... uh... we got something to tell ya... |
| 451 | -->'''Angelica:''' What is it?! |
| 452 | -->'''Tommy:''' Uh... it's about Cynthia... |
| 453 | -->'''Angelica:''' Oh, Tommy! Do you know where she is?! |
| 454 | -->'''Tommy:''' Uh... |
| 455 | -->'''Angelica:''' 'Cuz if I find out who took her, I'll mash 'em, and crash 'em, and smash 'em into a million zillion blobs of applesauce!!! |
| 456 | -->'''Tommy and Chuckie:''' [[LoudGulp *gulp*]] |
| 457 | ** And then, after agreeing to help her look for Cynthia, Tommy and Chuckie pretend to search around Tommy's backyard: |
| 458 | --->'''Chuckie:''' Tommy, what are we doin' in this bush? We know Cynthia's not in here... |
| 459 | --->'''Tommy:''' Well... I guess we could tell Angelica what really happened... |
| 460 | --->'''Chuckie:''' I don't know, Tommy. You wanna end up a blob of applesauce?! |
| 461 | ** Spike's flashback of Angelica forcing him to marry Cynthia. |
| 462 | -->'''Angelica:''' ''(deep voice)'' Gobble-geeble-goo! Waffle-weeble husband! |
| 463 | ** Angelica [[LostToyGrievance becomes very upset over Cynthia's disappearance]], even going as far as to [[MourningAnObject hold a funeral for her doll]] when she believes she truly lost her forever. |
| 464 | -->'''Chuckie''': I think this is it, Tommy. I think she's gone off her [[{{Malaproper}} rocket]]. |
| 465 | ** As Angelica gives Cynthia's eulogy, it makes Tommy and Chuckie feel even more guilty than ever. Finally, they can't take it anymore and burst into tears and confess. Before the furious Angelica can pummel them however, Spike arrives with a filthy Cynthia in his mouth. |
| 466 | -->'''Angelica''': And then on my third birthday, I had lots and lots of presents. But there was one present that was extra special. It was all wrapped up in some kinda shiny stuff with ribbons. (''Tommy whimpers. Chuckie wipes away a tear.'') Pink ribbons. (''Tommy sniffles. Chuckie slumps.'') That's when I first saw her. My Cynthia. I just knew my life would never be the same. (''Tommy and Chuckie cling to each other, bawling loudly'') NOT YET! I'M NOT FINISHED!\ |
| 467 | '''Chuckie''': WE DID IT! IT'S OUR FAULT!\ |
| 468 | '''Angelica''': Did what?\ |
| 469 | '''Tommy''': WE LOST HER!\ |
| 470 | '''Chuckie''': IN OUR BOAT!\ |
| 471 | '''Tommy''': We were playing in the river and needed a captain!\ |
| 472 | '''Chuckie''': And then Tommy said "Why not use Angelica's doll!"\ |
| 473 | '''Tommy''': 'Cause we only needed for a little bit!\ |
| 474 | '''Chuckie''': And then the water was really fast!\ |
| 475 | '''Tommy''': And it went way too far!\ |
| 476 | '''Chuckie''': At first, it was really neat!\ |
| 477 | '''Tommy''': But then it went out on the road!\ |
| 478 | '''Chuckie''': And down a hole and--\ |
| 479 | '''Both''': WE LOST CYNTHIA! WE'RE SORRY! (''they grab Angelica's skirt and burst out sobbing. Angelica shoves them to the ground. She tosses her headband down and slowly and menacingly advances on the two.'')\ |
| 480 | '''Angelica''': [[TranquilFury You rotten little babies!]] YOU LOST MY-- (''Spike emerges from the fence with a filthy, grimy Cynthia in his mouth'') [[AstonishinglyAppropriateInterruption CYNTHIA!]] You're alive! (''Tommy and Chuckie sigh with relief; Angelica embraces Spike'') Oh, Spike! You wonderful, beautiful dog! (''sniffs and looks at filthy Cynthia'') Cynthia, where've you been?!\ |
| 481 | (''Tommy and Chuckie hug the filthy Spike.'')\ |
| 482 | '''Stu''': Hold on there, big fella. (''picks up Spike by the collar'') What've you been rolling in? C'mon, Spike. Let's get you a bath.\ |
| 483 | '''Angelica''': Eww, yuck! Dog germs! (''dunks Cynthia in her toy hot tub, then places the tattered doll back on the beauty salon set'') Oh, Cynthia, now I won't be able to do a thing with your hair. |
| 484 | !! My Friend Barney |
| 485 | * Chuckie's imaginary friend Barney once got sent to jail for not eating broccoli. |
| 486 | ---> '''Chuckie:''' It's very sad. He wouldn't eat his broccoli so...they put him in prism. (How the babies pronounce "prison") |
| 487 | --->''(The babies all gasp.)'' |
| 488 | --->'''Chuckie:''' They can do that, ya know. |
| 489 | !! Feeding Hubert |
| 490 | !! Spike the Wonder Dog |
| 491 | * The sheer level of StylisticSuck in the ShowWithinAShow "Oodles the Talking Poodle" is absolutely hysterical. It's an over-the-top parody of ''Series/{{Lassie}}'' and ''Rin Tin Tin'', starring [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a pink poodle named "Oodles"]], who inexplicably wears [[SuperheroesWearCapes a red cape everywhere]] and has an offscreen actor doing his best to lip-synch with him in every scene. |
| 492 | -->'''Talulah:''' Look, Billy! It's Oodles!\ |
| 493 | '''Billy:''' Yeah! And it looks like something's wrong!\ |
| 494 | '''Oodles:''' Billy! Talulah! Come quick! Uncle Lyle's locked in the barn again and it's on fire!\ |
| 495 | '''Billy and Talulah:''' OH NO!\ |
| 496 | ''({{beat}})''\ |
| 497 | '''Billy:''' Wait a minute...we don't have an Uncle Lyle.\ |
| 498 | '''Talulah:''' We don't have a barn either... |
| 499 | ** This exchange, after Oodles busts into action and pulls Uncle Lyle out of the barn. |
| 500 | --->'''Uncle Lyle:''' Unh...what happened?\ |
| 501 | '''Oodles:''' You were knocked unconscious by a falling beam after the electric cattle heater shorted out and sparked a fire in the hayloft! I performed an incredible act of bravery by putting out the fire and pulling you to safety!\ |
| 502 | '''Uncle Lyle:''' [[DullSurprise Oh. Thanks.]] ''({{beat}})'' Hey, wait a minute! You can't talk...''[[CaptainObvious you're a dog!]]'' |
| 503 | !! The Slide |
| 504 | * Angelica is taunting Chuckie by saying he'll always be afraid of the slide, but Susie is trying to reassure him that he won't. |
| 505 | -->'''Susie''': "You can do it, Chuckie! Remember, it's just a slide!" |
| 506 | -->'''Angelica''': "You can't do it, Chuckie. Remember, it's a slide." |
| 507 | * Throughout the episode, Angelica calls Chuckie a "scaredy-cat", but Susie's phrase she gets Chuckie to memorise in order to be brave is, "I'm a big brave dog". When he's about to go down the slide, the two girls have an ArgumentOfContradictions over whether he's a "scaredy-cat" or a "big brave dog", which degenerates into them just shouting "Dog!" (Susie) and "Cat!" (Angelica). Chuckie gets bored of it and shouts out this. |
| 508 | -->'''Chuckie''': "I am not a aminal! I'm a [[BabyTalk human bean!]]" |
| 509 | !! The Big Flush |
| 510 | * Tommy asks Chuckie if any of their adventures have gotten them into trouble. Cue an epic rant from Chuckie, made up of one ContinuityNod after another. |
| 511 | !! King Ten Pin |
| 512 | !! Runaway Angelica |
| 513 | * When Angelica ruins Drew's home office and he says she's in very big trouble: |
| 514 | --> '''Angelica''': Oh daddy, you're silly. I can't be in trouble, I'm Angelica! Your only daughter, your princess, your cupcake! Your little tax shelter!\ |
| 515 | ''(SmashCut to Angelica's room)''\ |
| 516 | '''Drew''': And you're gonna ''stay'' in your room!\ |
| 517 | '''Angelica''': But, daddy-\ |
| 518 | '''Drew''': You're gonna stay in your room and think about what you did! (''slams the door... then gleefully walks downstairs musing'') Well, I did it. I actually did it! I disciplined Angelica.\ |
| 519 | '''Charlotte''': I hope you weren't to hard on her.\ |
| 520 | '''Drew''': Oh, no. Our daughter's a fairly mature girl. I think she'll take it well.\ |
| 521 | ''([[DescriptionCut Cut to Angelica's bedroom where she is destroying things in a fury]])''\ |
| 522 | '''[[SpoiledBrat Angelica]]:''' IT'S NOT FAIR! IT'S NOT FAIR! '''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis IT'S! NOT! FAAAAIIIIIR!]]''' (''panting'') |
| 523 | * This conversation between Drew and Charlotte |
| 524 | -->'''Drew''': Snookums, I'm going over to Stu's for a few minutes.\ |
| 525 | '''Charlotte''': Okay. Is Angelica still upstairs?\ |
| 526 | '''Drew''': Uh-huh. I haven't heard a peep out of her.\ |
| 527 | '''Charlotte''': I'll go up and check on her. And Drew?\ |
| 528 | '''Drew''': Yeah?\ |
| 529 | '''Charlotte''': Don't call me "Snookums".\ |
| 530 | '''Drew''': ''(slightly defeated)'' Noted. |
| 531 | * The babies giving Angelica the "[[DogFoodDiet cookies from the box with the dog on it]]". |
| 532 | -->'''Angelica''': You dumb BABIES!\ |
| 533 | '''Tommy''': What's wrong, Angelica?\ |
| 534 | '''Angelica''': These aren't cookies, they're dog biscuits! What do you think I am, a dog?!\ |
| 535 | '''Tommy''': Uh... [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Spike likes 'em]]...\ |
| 536 | '''Angelica''': Of ''course'' Spike likes 'em. Spike's a DOG! |
| 537 | !! Game Show Didi |
| 538 | !! Toys in the Attic |
| 539 | ->'''Angelica''': Why didn't you use a truck to drive through the fence, Mr. Grandpa Boris?\ |
| 540 | '''Boris''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Well, you see darling, we didn't have...]] '''I DID NOT DRIVE THROUGH THE FENCE!''' |
| 541 | !! Driving Miss Angelica |
| 542 | * When Chuckie and Angelica are locked in the closet, Drew can't hear Angelica's cries for help because "Reptar on Ice" is blaring on his headphones. |
| 543 | !! Susie vs Angelica |
| 544 | * One of the contests is to see who can hold their breath the longest. Chuckie can handle the pressure and begs Tommy to make them stop, while the twins notice Angelica looks like a balloon and they should pop her. |
| 545 | * Angelica and Susie argue again to end the episode, over who has better hair. During the fade to black, Susie pulls Angelica's pigtails. |
| 546 | !! Tooth or Dare |
| 547 | !! Party Animals |
| 548 | * The "moose" RunningGag. |
| 549 | * When Stu, dressed as a caveman, is locked outside and trying to get in, a stranger thinks that he's a lunatic who thinks he's WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}. |
| 550 | * When Grandpa Lou reads ''Literature/{{Aladdin}}'' to the children, Angelica asks if she could use a magic lamp to turn Fluffy into a lion. |
| 551 | -->'''Grandpa Lou''': "Why, you could turn Fluffy into a Ferrari!" |
| 552 | ** Later, when Angelica is searching for a magic lamp. |
| 553 | --->'''Lil''': "Are you going to wish Fluffy was a Ferraro?" |
| 554 | [[/folder]] |
| 555 | |
| 556 | [[folder: Season Three]] |
| 557 | !! Dummi Bear Dinner Disaster |
| 558 | * Angelica, a three year old, says this: |
| 559 | -->'''Angelica''': This is ridiculous! I'm practically a grown-up, and I'm stuck wasting my time with you stupid babies! |
| 560 | !! Twins Pique |
| 561 | * Phil's failed attempt at trying to be like Chuckie: he shrugs off going into the shed and is scared of going to the other side of the playpen. |
| 562 | * Lil deciding she wants to be like Angelica because the latter is "a natural leader". |
| 563 | !! Chuckie's First Haircut |
| 564 | * Chaz's recap of Chuckie's first visit to the barber: "And after he smeared the industrial strength cologne and got into the barrel of hair, he knocked over a tub of lather, skidded into a shelf of shampoo, and snapped a cardboard cut-out of Crew Cut the Clown right in half. I've never been so humiliated in all my life." |
| 565 | ** Arguably, Chuckie's mangled retelling of the same tale to the other babies was even funnier. |
| 566 | * Chaz claims he's never been so humiliated. Cue Stu and Didi naming instances where he has in fact been that humiliated, with Chaz looking back and forth between them as if at a tennis match, until he screams, "Okay, okay, I exaggerated!" |
| 567 | * Chaz letting Chuckie cutting his own hair starts off as a heartwarming moment as first to ensure Chuckie that getting a haircut doesn't hurt, until Chuckie gets carried away with cutting his father's hair. Stu and Didi notice this and they alert Chaz about his hair. They show him the mirror (though we only see his face and not what's happened to his hair) where Chaz ScreamsLikeALittleGirl before he faints. |
| 568 | ** We do see what happened to Chaz's hair afterwards when he and Chuckie return to the barber. Cue the amused reactions from the customers and the barber himself. |
| 569 | !! Cool Hand Angelica |
| 570 | * During Angelica's montage, we see her trying to catch a chicken in a clearing. Susie gives a confused AsideGlance to the camera. |
| 571 | * As Angelica is throwing a tantrum after finding out her parents are sending her to day camp, they both try to coax her while debating whether or not they should make her go, with Drew thinking they shouldn't and Charlotte reminding him they both agreed to be more firm with her. Finally Drew tells Angelica that everyone has to do things they don't want to sometimes, and it's a part of life. Angelica just replies, "Not me, Daddy. I'm special." Drew and Charlotte both look at each other and say in unison, "She's going." |
| 572 | !! Tricycle Thief |
| 573 | * When Susie discovers that her trike has been stolen. |
| 574 | -->'''Susie:''' My trike! It's gone!\ |
| 575 | '''Phil:''' Call the police!\ |
| 576 | '''Lil:''' Call the army!\ |
| 577 | '''Chuckie:''' [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Call me when it's over!]] |
| 578 | * When Phil and Lil suggest whoever stole Susie's trike pay "up the nose", Chuckie casually says, "[[NoodleIncident I put a penny up my nose once.]]" |
| 579 | * When Angelica gets Cynthia back, Lil wonders how it happened. |
| 580 | -->'''Chuckie''': It's a miracle. |
| 581 | -->'''Phil''': Or a low-flying plane. |
| 582 | * The SpoofAesop at the end, Tommy says everyone learned a lesson, with Chuckie saying the lesson being, "Never let Susie borrow your balloon." |
| 583 | !! Rhinoceritis! |
| 584 | * Angelica's epic defence of why she's a good doctor. |
| 585 | --> '''Chuckie:''' I don't know. Your daddy seemed pretty mad. |
| 586 | --> '''Angelica:''' He's just threatened by working women. |
| 587 | * Angelica alludes to diagnosing a boy with chicken pox, "and now he's pecking around a barnyard somewhere." |
| 588 | --> '''Tommy:''' Why don't his mommy and daddy help him? |
| 589 | --> '''Angelica:''' They need the eggs. |
| 590 | * The line "Angelica! You're the one with rhinoplasty!" |
| 591 | * Angelica claims that Chuckie will turn into a rhino because he's caught a rare disease. But after Angelica finally admits that she made it all up, Tommy and the twins point that ''Angelica'' herself is displaying some of the symptoms she mentioned. The end of the episode has Drew finding her crouched on all fours... |
| 592 | --> '''Drew:''' Angelica, are you eating grass? |
| 593 | --> '''Angelica:''' Careful, Daddy. The rhinoceros is known to charge at random. |
| 594 | * In the B-plot of this episode, Drew is helping Stu get his finances in order for tax season. Stu is... less than helpful. |
| 595 | -->'''Drew:''' I don't understand this, Stu. You've kept shopping lists, candy wrappers, and what appears to be a [[{{Squick}} bag of moldy french fries...]]\ |
| 596 | '''Stu:''' [[ExactWords I always keep a record of everything I buy.]]\ |
| 597 | '''Drew:''' [[SarcasmMode Oh, that's nice.]] [[SuddenlyShouting WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST KEEP THE SALES RECEIPTS?!]] |
| 598 | !! Grandpa Moves Out |
| 599 | * After Grandpa leaves the house we're treated to a montage of time passing, with rain, the leaves turning orange and falling and a snowy street after which spring comes... and then we get to the caption that says "One Week Later...". When Drew enters the house he mentions that the weather last week was just crazy. |
| 600 | * Tommy and Angelica are left in the care of an elderly woman named Mildred. Mildred shows pictures of her seven grandchildren who are named after and act like [[WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs the Seven Dwarfs]]. Mildred has trouble remembering one of their names, prompting Angelica to casually ask "Sleepy?" |
| 601 | --> '''Mildred''': Actually, now that you mention it, I could use a little nap.\ |
| 602 | ''(Mildred falls asleep and starts snoring)''\ |
| 603 | '''Tommy''': She must be tired.\ |
| 604 | '''Angelica''': 'Course, that's why she's in a tired center, silly! |
| 605 | * The ending: Grandpa agrees to move back in with Stu and Didi. On the drive home: |
| 606 | --> '''Grandpa''': Stu, I've got to go back.\ |
| 607 | '''Stu''': But pop, I thought you were coming home.\ |
| 608 | '''Grandpa''': I ''am'', but I left my car and all my stuff back at the retirement center.\ |
| 609 | ''(car turns around)'' |
| 610 | !! The Legend of Satchmo |
| 611 | * Grandpa and Stu's conversation about appropriate camp stories is hilarious, because of the reversal of expectations: |
| 612 | --> '''Stu''': Say, I hope you're not reading the kids anything too scary, Pop.\ |
| 613 | '''Lou''': Well, that all depends. It ''might'' be scary if you're 35 years old and you suddenly realize that you've never really ''lived''!\ |
| 614 | '''Stu''': ...Look, Pop, are you sure about this whole camping experiment?\ |
| 615 | '''Lou''': Stu, just because you had one bad teensy-weensy experience in the woods, doesn't mean you have to wreck the great outdoors for everyone.\ |
| 616 | '''Stu''': Teensy weensy? I was lost for ''three days''!\ |
| 617 | '''Lou''': Stu, that was over a year ago. Isn't it about time you put it behind ya? |
| 618 | ** And this follow-up conversation a bit later: |
| 619 | --->'''Didi:''' Stu, this isn't Manitoba, it's ''our backyard''. The kids'll be fine. Go to sleep, and soon it will be morning, and we can all go on with our lives! |
| 620 | --->'''Stu:''' Yeah, I guess you're right. Good night. ''(light goes off, then comes back on)'' What if there's a flash flood? |
| 621 | --->'''Didi:''' Stu, go to sleep. |
| 622 | * This conversation between Stu and Angelica. |
| 623 | --> '''Angelica:''' We ran away cause we were scared of Satchmo. |
| 624 | -->'''Stu''': Satchmo, [[Music/LouisArmstrong the trumpet player]]? |
| 625 | -->'''Angelica''': No, the monster! |
| 626 | ** Later... |
| 627 | --->'''Stu:''' Angelica seems to think there's someone in the neighborhood named "Satchmo". |
| 628 | --->'''Grandpa:''' [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike The trumpet player?]] |
| 629 | --->'''Stu:''' No, the monster. Now where did she get an idea like that? |
| 630 | --->'''Grandpa:''' Beats me. Must be something they got from TV. |
| 631 | ** [[AsYouKnow In case you didn't catch that episode]], [[DontExplainTheJoke the joke was that Grandpa had just scared the pants off of the kids by telling them a horror story about "the sasquatch"]]. The kids got the story so twisted up that not even Grandpa knew what the heck they were talking about when they repeated it back to him. |
| 632 | --->'''Stu:''' Yeah; well, I think [[IWarnedYou this proves that camping out is not such a good idea!]] |
| 633 | --->'''Grandpa:''' I think it proves that [[HypocriticalHumor watching TV is not such a good idea!]] |
| 634 | * In the end, Stu ends up joining Grandpa and the babies in their tent. When they try to sleep, Stu suddenly wakes up and explains how he changed his mind about camping. |
| 635 | -->'''Stu''': Y'know, this is kind of exciting out here in the middle of nature! It's almost... primal! For the first time, I'm experiencing the real Stu Pickles. |
| 636 | -->'''Angelica''': ''(half-asleep)'' Uncle Stu? |
| 637 | -->'''Stu''': What is it, Angelica? Out here I feel we can really communicate! |
| 638 | -->'''Angelica''': ...go to sleep. |
| 639 | !! Circus Angelicus |
| 640 | !! The Stork |
| 641 | * Angelica's parents' reactions during this random exchange: |
| 642 | -->'''Angelica:''' Mommy, I have a question. |
| 643 | -->'''Charlotte:''' Yes, dear? |
| 644 | -->'''Angelica:''' Where do babies come from? |
| 645 | ** Drew says we all start out as a tiny little egg, and then that babies come from the stork, and [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs he wraps it up by saying they come from stork eggs]]. |
| 646 | * After Angelica has told the babies that babies come from eggs, Tommy wishes his parents would get one so he could have a little brother. |
| 647 | -->'''Chuckie:''' Too bad we're babies, otherwise we could just go get a stork's egg ourselves. ''(pause as everyone does nothing but look at him, until he sighs in resignation)'' I'll get the screwdriver. |
| 648 | * A small one, but this little nod to Cynthia's ButtMonkey status when Chuckie holds her hostage in exchange for the egg: |
| 649 | -->'''Angelica:''' Just don't do anything crazy! She's been through a lot lately! |
| 650 | * Stu and Drew are making a giant omelette in the kitchen while the other adults are in the living room watching football. |
| 651 | -->'''Drew''': Sure you got enough eggs? |
| 652 | -->'''Stu''': Yeah. I wanted to be safe so I ordered a gross. |
| 653 | -->'''Drew''': A gross?! Stu, that's 144 eggs! |
| 654 | -->'''Stu''': ([[EpicFail lifts the cover to the giant bowl of eggs]]) [[OhCrap Oops...]] |
| 655 | ** And later: |
| 656 | --->'''Stu''': (tosses a handful of objects into the bowl of cracked egg yolks) |
| 657 | --->'''Drew''': (picks up one of the objects) What are these? |
| 658 | --->'''Stu''': Greek olives. |
| 659 | --->'''Drew''': Stu, you can't put Greek olives in an omelette! |
| 660 | --->'''Stu''': Why not? |
| 661 | --->'''Drew''': [[LampshadeHanging THEY HAVE PITS IN THEM]]! |
| 662 | --->'''Stu''': [[BlatantLies ...I knew that.]] |
| 663 | !! The Baby Vanishes |
| 664 | * When Angelica thinks she's invisible due to the adults ignoring her as to not reinforce her behavior. The adults barely react as she dumps Spike's food on their heads or spills juice on them. Stu and Drew seem ready to simply scold her only for Didi to stop them. Didi however almost loses this charade when Angelica steals her glasses and runs off. |
| 665 | * When Angelica first plays with Charlotte's makeup, Drew attempts to explain vanishing cream as something that grown-ups use to make things invisible. |
| 666 | --> '''Angelica:''' What kind of things? |
| 667 | -->'''Drew:''' Oh, unsightly liver spots, age marks, stuff like that. |
| 668 | --> '''Angelica:''' Does it really work? |
| 669 | -->'''Drew:''' Well...no, but your mother likes to pretend it does. |
| 670 | * Drew earnestly asks if buying Angelica new toys every day, letting her use his Armani ties as jump ropes, and making chocolate chip pancakes for dinner a few days a week counts as spoiling her. |
| 671 | !! Farewell, My Friend |
| 672 | * Chaz says Didi hasn't lived until she's eaten fresh produce from a greenhouse. Didi responds with a nervous chuckle. |
| 673 | * When Lil asks Phil if he'd save her from a snake? His response -- "How big a snake?". |
| 674 | !! When Wishes Come True |
| 675 | * The premise: Tommy wishes for something really bad (so bad, he can't even think of something specific) to happen to Angelica. When he sees a statue of her, he [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone feels guilty because he thinks his wish came true]] and she [[TakenForGranite turned to stone.]] They then try to turn her into a human again by "teaching" her how to be a human. |
| 676 | * When Tommy's wishing something bad will happen to Angelica, Lil suggests he wish her hair to turn into worms and Phil suggests he wish her nose get bigger until she bumps into walls. Tommy thinks those aren't bad enough. |
| 677 | * Phil and Lil thinking that the only worse things than turning into a rock are turning into mashed peas [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs and]]/or bat drool. |
| 678 | * The babies hear Didi coming outside, so they [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/rugrats/images/5/5c/Rugrats_-_When_Wishes_Come_True_147.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/640?cb=20180409052312 clothe the Angelica statue in laundry that was hanging out to dry]]. |
| 679 | * Chuckie gets trapped by the statue when the babies push it onto a wagon in an attempt to hide it. |
| 680 | -->'''Chuckie''': Even when she’s a rock, she makes me miserable. |
| 681 | * Tommy decides that he could try wishing that "Angelica" would turn back to real. |
| 682 | -->'''Tommy''': "I wish Angelica turns back to real... I really wish Angelica turns back to real... I ''really, really'' wish that Angelica turns back to real!" |
| 683 | * The twins think that they want Angelica to stay a "rock" because she can't pick on them. However, Tommy states that she's still their friend despite being mean, and they'd get in trouble if the parents find out that "they turned her into a rock". |
| 684 | * The Rugrats brainstorming on how to "turn Angelica back". |
| 685 | -->'''Lil''': maybe we could squirt milk all over her so she gets real messy! |
| 686 | -->'''Tommy''': How would that make her real? |
| 687 | -->'''Lil''': I don't know. I'd just like to do it. |
| 688 | -->'''Chuckie''': Maybe we could give her a nice bubble bath. |
| 689 | -->'''Tommy''': How would that make her real? |
| 690 | -->'''Chuckie''': I don't know, but it'd wash off the milk. |
| 691 | -->''Later'' |
| 692 | -->'''Phil''': Maybe Angelica didn't turn into a real girl because we're not treating her like a real girl! |
| 693 | -->'''Tommy''': What you talkin' 'bout, Phil? |
| 694 | -->'''Phil''': It's like in that story [[Literature/{{Pinocchio}} Pinoklio]]. He had to learn how to be a real boy before he could be a real boy. |
| 695 | -->'''Lil''': So we gotta act like Angelica's a real girl. |
| 696 | -->'''Phil''': And then she'll be a real girl! |
| 697 | * Angelica when she discovers the statue, that's now broken. |
| 698 | -->'''Angelica''': "Wait, those aren't rocks, they're...ME!!!" |
| 699 | * Stu promises that he'll have the statue fixed faster than Drew can say "Hokey-Pokey". |
| 700 | -->'''Drew''': ''(deadpan)'' Hokey Pokey. |
| 701 | * Drew calling Stu's attempt to fix the statue a "mess" in the same way Angelica called the babies' block tower a mess. |
| 702 | !! Angelica Breaks a Leg |
| 703 | * Didi has been unable to contact Charlotte during her kayaking trip because her cell phone always sounds busy. We cut to the trip itself to see that ''everyone'' is in an inflatable raft, wearing lifejackets on top of their business outfits and they are all having heated conversations in their cell phones! |
| 704 | --->'''Charlotte''': "Call that a counter-offer? I call it... Hold on, Jonathan, we're coming to a rapid." |
| 705 | * The [[Series/DoogieHowserMD Doogie Howser-esque]] teen doctor (voiced by Creator/ScottMenville) who diagnosed Angelica's broken leg. He insists that he's a professional, as we then [[NotHelpingYourCase see him sitting on a stack of books to see over his desk and then slurping the chocolate milk that he's given.]] |
| 706 | ** At the end of the episode, he admits to Stu and Didi that it was someone named "Peaches", not "Pickles", who truly broke his leg. He then apologizes to the football player named Peaches [[AmusingInjuries whose leg is bent forward]], and he gives an OhCrapSmile. |
| 707 | * The [[MemeticMutation now-famous]] scene of poor Stu's "descent into madness" as he's forced to go out and buy chocolate pudding mix at 3:00 AM for the "injured" Angelica. |
| 708 | -->'''Didi:''' (quiet concern) Stu, what are you doing? |
| 709 | -->'''Stu:''' (tired deadpan) Making chocolate pudding. |
| 710 | -->'''Didi:''' (quiet concern) It's 4:00 in the morning. Why on earth are you making chocolate pudding? |
| 711 | -->'''Stu:''' [[DespairEventHorizon (tired deadpan) Because I've lost control of my life.]] |
| 712 | ** ...and the payoff. |
| 713 | --->'''Stu:''' Here's your pudding, Angelica. |
| 714 | --->'''Angelica:''' Oh that's okay, Uncle Stu. [[ShaggyDogStory I'm not hungry anymore.]] |
| 715 | --->'''Stu''': [[{{Beat}} (quietly stands up straight)]] |
| 716 | --->''(cut to the outside of the house)'' |
| 717 | --->'''Stu:''' '''''[[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!]]''''' |
| 718 | ** When Stu's actor Jack Riley passed away, one obituary called for its readers to "raise a glass of chocolate pudding" to him. Talk about a legacy! |
| 719 | ** A more subtle, [[BlackComedy hilariously dark]] bit about that scene: When Stu is bringing Angelica her pudding, she's laughing hysterically at the TV. If you listen closely, you can hear that she's watching something that involves '''[[ComedicSociopath gunfire and explosions.]]''' Keep in mind that Angelia is only ''[[TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior three years old]]!'' |
| 720 | * At the end of the episode, we find out Charlotte has broken ''her'' leg in a kayaking accident. Then, Drew asks Angelica if she knows how to make chocolate pudding, and the camera zooms into her eyes as the buzzer gets louder and louder. |
| 721 | !! The Last Babysitter |
| 722 | * Tommy and Susie are looking through a book of monsters and end up one a page about a diminutive, lanky creature that likes to dwell in dark places like caves, with Susie remarking that "no-one's seen him in a gajillion years, I think he fell into a volcano or something." Probably, this is a reference to [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings Gollum.]] |
| 723 | !! Sour Pickles |
| 724 | * [[WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle Blocky]] [[ParentalBonus and Oxwinkle]]. They even got Creator/JuneForay! |

| 731 | * Tommy is upset that his dad isn't around to play with him anymore, so he sets up traps around the house trying to prevent him from going to work. Stu thinks the traps are childish pranks set by Drew and tries some pranks of his own. |
| 732 | -->'''Stu''': ''(speaking into the phone and holding his nose to badly imitate his brother's voice)'' Yes, hello. I'd like to order 50 large pepperoni and mushroom pizzas. My name? Drew Pickles. ''(Hangs up and walks off chuckling, while Lou shakes his head.)'' |
| 733 | ** Later, when Stu finds all his clothes missing from his closet except his disco suit, he's forced to wear it to work. Lou looks up from reading the newspaper as Stu enters the kitchen in his Disco suit. |
| 734 | --->'''Lou''': ''(chuckling)'' Mornin', son. Lookin' sharp. |
| 735 | --->'''Stu''': ''(flatly)'' Thanks, Pop... |
| 736 | ** Still later: |
| 737 | --->'''Stu''': ''(again speaking into the phone and holding his nose over his nostrils to badly imitate his brother's voice)'' Hello, I'd like to report a car parked illegally on private property at 53 Briarcliff Place. The license plate reads 'DREW'. |
| 738 | ** Stu is coming home grumpy from work because his new job frankly sucks, and with him thinking that Drew is constantly pranking him, he is none too happy when he sees him in his house, and is now resorting to arguing over the littlest things, which leads to this humorous little exchange. |
| 739 | --->'''Stu:''' What are you doing here?! |
| 740 | --->'''Drew:''' Oh, just picking up a cook book. Thought I'd try a new Chinese recipe. |
| 741 | --->'''Stu:''' Cook book, ha! Maybe you oughta think about returning the last book you borrowed from me! |
| 742 | --->'''Drew:''' Gee, I hope you're not talking about that coloring book, Stu. |
| 743 | --->'''Stu:''' You ate the cover! |
| 744 | --->'''Drew:''' I was ''five!'' |
| 745 | ** And then, the final confrontation of both brothers. |
| 746 | --->'''Didi''': ''(hears the doorbell and goes to answer the door)'' Drew! |
| 747 | --->'''Drew''': ''(fuming)'' ''Where's Stu?!'' ''(enters the kitchen with Didi to find Stu calmly sitting at the kitchen table drinking coffee)'' Stu, let's talk. |
| 748 | --->'''Stu''': ''(calmly gestures to an empty chair)'' Fine by me. |
| 749 | --->'''Drew''': (''takes a seat)'' I couldn't get to the office yesterday because someone had my car towed! |
| 750 | --->'''Stu''': And I suppose I wore my disco suit to work today just for kicks, huh?! |
| 751 | --->'''Drew''': I don't know what you're talking about. But I bet you know something about the 50 pizzas I got the other day! |

| 757 | -->'''Angelica:''' Let's pretend that nickel's a pie.\ |
| 758 | '''Phil:''' What flavor?\ |
| 759 | '''Angelica:''' It doesn't matter.\ |
| 760 | '''Lil:''' What do you mean it doesn't matter?! [[SeriousBusiness There's a big difference between a chocolate pie and a apple pie!!]]\ |
| 761 | '''Angelica:''' Okay, it's an apple pie.\ |
| 762 | '''Phil:''' Ew, I hate apple pie.\ |
| 763 | '''Angelica:''' Okay, it's a chocolate pie!\ |
| 764 | '''Lil:''' Ew...\ |
| 765 | '''Angelica:''' WILL YOU TWO PUT A LID ON IT?! ''beat'' Now, the more people eating the pie, the smaller their piece, but if it's just the three of us, we all get a ''bigger'' piece. Understand?\ |
| 766 | '''Lil:''' Yeah...\ |
| 767 | '''Phil:''' Sure...\ |
| 768 | '''Angelica:''' Good. ''(leaves)''\ |
| 769 | '''Lil:''' What did she mean?\ |
| 770 | '''Phil:''' I don't know, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint but it sure made me hungry.]] |

| 774 | !! The Mysterious Mr. Friend |
| 775 | * As Stu is rapidly producing Mr. Friend dolls in the basement. |
| 776 | -->'''Stu''': Stu Pickles isn't selling out to any greedy toy company monolith! (to himself) [[MoneyDearBoy Not yet, anyway.]] |
| 777 | * The "it's alive" scene. |
| 778 | -->'''Stu''': "It's alive! It's alive!!" |
| 779 | -->'''Didi''': "What's alive, Stu?" |
| 780 | * Lil's reaction to the approaching army of Mr. Friend dolls. |
| 781 | -->'''Lil''': Boy, [[DullSurprise this is really one of those days, huh]]? |
| 782 | * Tommy insisting that they can't spend their lives running from Mr. Friend. |
| 783 | -->'''Tommy''': 'Cause then we'll never have time to do anything else, like play or take naps or grow up and get jobs! |
| 784 | * Some of the Mr. Friend-isms are golden, but special mention goes to this one, delivered as he's narrowly avoiding getting hit by traffic. |
| 785 | -->'''Mr. Friend''': Do your homework, study hard, and don't eat food that's cooked in lard. |
| 786 | ** Another one. |
| 787 | --->'''Mr. Friend''': A word of caution, if you please: don't kiss the cat when it has fleas. |
| 788 | ** Didi has her own thoughts regarding Mr. Friend's words of wisdom; when Stu demonstrates the toy for her, she begs him to hire a proper writer. |
| 789 | ** This one after the babies bury Mr. Friend. |

| 791 | * Tommy's and Chuckie's demonstration of the development of the baby mind, when Chuckie frantically stops Tommy from turning the handle on his Jack-in-the-box: |

| 793 | '''Tommy:''' I know.\ |
| 794 | '''Chuckie:''' ''So'' why do you want to do it again?!\ |
| 795 | '''Tommy:''' Maybe something different'll happen this time. |
| 796 | * Tommy stating that Mr. Friend smells "like burning rubber bands." |
| 797 | !! Cuffed |
| 798 | * When Angelica first tries to get the handcuffs, Chuckie shouts that he saw a mouse. When Angelica discovers that the ''"mouse"'' is actually a sock: |
| 799 | -->'''Angelica:''' (''Holding the sock while smiling deviously'') Does this look like a mouse to you? |
| 800 | -->'''Chuckie:''' No. |
| 801 | -->'''Angelica:''' What does it look like? |
| 802 | -->'''Chuckie:''' A sock. |
| 803 | -->'''Angelica:''' Do you know why it looks like a sock? |
| 804 | -->'''Chuckie:''' Uh... (''shrugs'') |

| 806 | * This exchange when Chuckie and Angelica are handcuffed together and they can't find the key: |

| 808 | -->'''Chuckie:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint I didn't know Bozo worked at the handcuff factory]]. |
| 809 | * In her haste to get the handcuffs off, Angelica [[{{Fingore}} hits her thumb with a toy hammer]]. Then Drew comes into her bedroom, and Angelica explains that she and Chuckie were having a screaming contest. |
| 810 | * Chuckie asking Angelica what life will be like being cuffed forever. |
| 811 | -->'''Angelica:''' Well, we'll have to go everywhere together, and probably get married, and whenever we go out people will say, "There goes Angelica, the girl who's stuck to the dumb kid with the goofy hair." |
| 812 | -->'''Chuckie:''' Well, at least we'll never be lonely. |
| 813 | * When Chuckie [[CallingYourBathroomBreaks says he has to go potty]]. |
| 814 | * The final gag, with Angelica having accidentally cuffed herself to the bed, with the key just inches from her grasp, [[NoMatterHowMuchIBeg desperately bartering with Chuckie who she had just ordered to stay away from her]]. Complete with a self-made echo of her last word. |
| 815 | !! The Blizzard |

| 817 | -->'''Stu:''' ''(runs into the room, excited)'' Yippee! School's been cancelled! |

| 823 | !! Angelica's Birthday |
| 824 | * Charlotte has spared no expense to make sure Angelica has the best birthday ever; She has a cake the size of a wedding cake, a karaoke machine, a petting zoo, a chocolate swan sculpture, Chinese acrobats, and Chas and Howard perform as clowns named Flubbo and Looney Boy. Unfortunately, the Russian circus she reserved has been cancelled because the performers were deported. |
| 825 | * This exchange when the babies find out Angelica is going to start acting like a baby; |
| 826 | -->'''Lil:''' If she's a baby, she'll be one of us!\ |
| 827 | '''Phil:''' And if she's just one of us, maybe she can't push us around anymore!\ |
| 828 | '''Lil:''' Or steal our toys anymore!\ |
| 829 | '''Chuckie:''' [[NoodleIncident Or make us wear those frilly panties]]! (''Tommy, Phil, and Lil all stare in shock at Chuckie.'') Um, I don't wanna talk about it. |
| 830 | !! Princess Angelica |
| 831 | * Angelica conducting tests to see if she's really a princess. |
| 832 | ** She tries to make Phil and Lil climb her hair like Rapunzel, whom she calls "[[{{Malaproper}} Rapoozle]]". The twins each grab a pigtail and pull, making Angelica scream at them to let go. They do, and all three fall to the floor. |
| 833 | --->'''Angelica''' What's the matter with you!? That's no way to treat a princess! |
| 834 | ** When she explains the second test to the babies, this is the conversation: |
| 835 | --->'''Angelica''': A princess's skin is so soft she can feel a pea through a whole lot of blankets.\ |
| 836 | '''Lil:''' I can feel it when [[ThePigPen Phil]] [[EmbarrassingDampSheets pees through a lot of blankets]], does that make me a princess?\ |
| 837 | '''Angelica''': (In a voice of stoic disgust) No, that just makes you both disgusting. |
| 838 | !! The Odd Couple |
| 839 | * When Tommy spends the weekend at Chuckie's house. After Tommy wakes him up over and over again to say something innocuous like "I'm glad I'm staying at your house," Chuckie finally has enough: |

| 841 | '''Chuckie:''' WHAT?! Tommy, what?! I'm trying to sleep!\ |

| 845 | '''Chuckie:''' Do what?\ |
| 846 | '''Tommy:''' Make it green.\ |
| 847 | '''Chuckie:''' I don't know, Tommy. Just go to sleep!\ |
| 848 | ''(They do, but then Chuckie's eyes shoot open.)''\ |
| 849 | '''Chuckie:''' ''(whispering, frightened)'' How ''do'' they make it green? |
| 850 | * When Tommy spends the weekend at Chuckie's house, Chuckie is very particular about how his toys are set up and played with, even showing Tommy how to properly play with his prized 'Bogo Block Village' play set, until... |
| 851 | -->'''Chuckie:''' (upon entering his bedroom) No, Tommy, no! |
| 852 | -->'''Tommy:''' (holding a Bogo Block person) What's wrong, Chuckie? |
| 853 | -->'''Chuckie:''' What's wrong? ''What's wrong?'' Look what you did! It's all ruined! |

| 864 | -->'''Betty:''' Don't start with that hippie Lipschitz, Deed! I don't know what kind of baby commune you're trying to run here, but it's time to face facts! The 60s are over and we lost, so just get with the program, alright? |

| 868 | * Stu lamenting that "Our son has become the high priest of baby nudism." |
| 869 | * At the end of the episode, Tommy decides to start wearing clothes again, and talks to Chuckie about how important they are. Chuckie tries to talk to Tommy, but Tommy keeps interrupting him. After Tommy finishes, he jumps and splashes water, [[ALessonLearnedTooWell revealing that he and Chuckie are in the bathtub]].

| 880 | !! Under Chuckie's Bed |
| 881 | * After Angelica taunts Chuckie, through song, about being afraid of getting eaten by a monster under his bed, Tommy tells Chuckie not to listen to her, with Phil quipping, "Yeah, [[HollywoodToneDeaf she's a lousy singer]]." |
| 882 | !! Chuckie is Rich |
| 883 | * The ending where after we learn Chas is keeping his glass elephant from [[AFoolAndHisNewMoneyAreSoonParted when he was temporarily rich]], as Tommy and Chuckie hug each other, we hear this from off-screen... |

| 888 | * This moment. |
| 889 | -->'''Charlotte:''' (on the phone to Jonathan) What? Not you, Jonathan; you know I would never call one of my employees "sweetie." At least not since the Clarence Thomas hearings. |
| 890 | ** Which was part of Angelica setting off one hell of a car alarm in the parking garage with a voice saying "Stand back! You are too close to the vehicle!" to which Angelica responds, "Hey Mommy, neat! A talking car!" Then when the main (and ''loud'') alarm starts up, all Angelica can say is "Cool!" while Tommy starts bawling. Charlotte casually tells Jonathan to have the car towed. |
| 891 | ** While we're on Charlotte/Jonathan, there's this bit: |
| 892 | --->'''Charlotte:''' (to the kids) Say bye-bye to mommy! |
| 893 | --->'''Jonathan:''' (talking to Charlotte on the phone) Bye-bye, mommy! |
| 894 | --->'''Charlotte:''' Not you. |
| 895 | * When Jonathan has to take over Charlotte's sales pitch to an elderly couple, he references ''Series/{{Dragnet}}'': |

| 897 | '''Ethel''':...[[NewTechnologyIsEvil We think television is evil.]] |
| 898 | * Drew comes home and asks where Charlotte is. Angelica, not knowing what she's saying, sweetly tells Drew that she's upstairs "washing off the stench of failure". |
| 899 | * When Charlotte scolds Angelica, she asks what she'll do if she says Angelica can't have what she's demanding. Angelica's response is "Ask Daddy?" |
| 900 | !! Chuckie's Wonderful Life |

| 905 | --->'''Dream Spike''': ''(posh English accent)'' "Hello, there! Just in time for a spot of tea, eh wot?" |
| 906 | --->'''Chuckie''': "Hey! Spike's not [[{{Malaproper}} 'apposed']] to talk!" |
| 907 | ** "I'm not Stu!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" |

| 909 | !! The Unfair Pair |
| 910 | * The fight between the toys named Reptar and The Other Reptar. |

| 913 | -->'''Phil''': "Hey, that's not fair, Angelica!" |
| 914 | -->'''Angelica''': ''(takes a bite out of Lil's piece)'' "Okay, now Phil's piece is bigger." |
| 915 | -->'''Lil''': Hey, that's not fair either! |
| 916 | -->'''Angelica''': ''(tosses both pieces into her mouth)'' There, now you're even. |
| 917 | * Phil and Lil try to go into the basement, each believing the other's the reject, until Phil believes that both he and Lil are the rejects and that Angelica is the favorite. This ends up backfiring in Angelica's face when the two are excited to go live in the basement and she ends up running into the basement after them, calling, "Wait for me, I wanna be a reject too!" |
| 918 | * At the end, Angelica walks in on Charlotte and Betty talking about sweaters. |
| 919 | -->'''Charlotte:''' My favorite's always going to be Angora. |

| 923 | !! Spike Runs Away |
| 924 | * The first pet is Cuddles, a very aggressive poodle belonging to Mr. Fillihulster, one of their neighbors. Cuddles constantly barks and growls angrily at Tommy and Chuckie, breaks his toys, steals any time he might have had with Stu and Didi from him, and demands they give her what food they do have.Tommy sums her up best; |
| 925 | --->'''Tommy:''' Chuckie, I knew Spike! Spike was a friend of mine! And let me tell you something, that [[{{Malaproper}} poople]] is no Spike! |
| 926 | *** Stu doesn't think highly of Cuddles either... |
| 927 | --->'''Stu:''' (''carrying a enormous bag of dog food'') Dumb dog eats better than we do.\ |
| 928 | '''Didi:''' Stu, have you noticed that Tommy and Cuddles don't seem to be, well... bonding?\ |
| 929 | '''Stu:''' "Bonding?" Who could bond with ''that''?\ |
| 930 | (''Cuddles growls as she pulls on the leg of Stu's pants and rips it off. Cut to Stu opening the front door for Didi.'')\ |
| 931 | '''Stu''': Well?\ |
| 932 | '''Didi''': I think Mr. Fillihulster was glad to have her back. Although she did bite him the minute she got inside the door. |
| 933 | ** Stu then buys a tarantula named Terry. The babies let him loose and the spider crawls into Grandpa's bedroom, where Grandpa's sleeping in his bed, and the spider crawls onto the bed. A view from Terry's eyes is shown as Lou awakens and stares at Terry in horror. Back in the kitchen, Didi and Stu are sitting at the table... |
| 934 | --->'''Didi''': $50 for a spider? Why, Stu, I can't believe it!\ |
| 935 | '''Stu''': Think of it as an investment, Deed.\ |
| 936 | '''Grandpa''': (''off-screen from upstairs'') '''''GAAAAAH!!!''''' (''A big smack is heard, and then Grandpa Lou steps downstairs with the dead tarantula in a wadded handkerchief'') Boy, there was a huge spider in my bed. Got him, though. (''puts the hankie with the dead spider into the trash can'') So, what's for dinner? |
| 937 | * Stu buys two gerbils, Tanya and Rupert. Tommy decides to try to teach the gerbils to come to him and opens the cage, only for the gerbils to scurry off. |
| 938 | -->'''Chuckie''': What are they, Tommy?\ |
| 939 | '''Tommy''': I dunno. I wonder if we can teach 'em to come. ''(opens the cage)'' C'mere, ol' gerdil, ol' guy! ''(the gerbils scurry away)'' Hey, where ya going?\ |
| 940 | '''Chuckie''': [[LampshadeHanging Boy, we're not having good luck with all these aminals, are we?]] |
| 941 | ** Several weeks later, Didi is vacuuming, annoyed that the gerbils keep leaving their little "presents" all over the house. Tommy and Chuckie exclaim, "Presents?" Smash cut to a [[GrossUpCloseUp close-up of gerbil droppings]]. |
| 942 | --->'''Tommy''': Hey! This isn't a present! It's gerdil poop!\ |
| 943 | (''The sound of squeaking is heard from behind the basement door.'')\ |
| 944 | '''Chuckie''': What was that?\ |
| 945 | '''Tommy''': Maybe that's where the presents are.\ |
| 946 | (''Tommy opens the door, and he and Chuckie walk down the stairs. Chuckie gasps in amazement.'')\ |
| 947 | '''Chuckie''': Look, Tommy! The floor's movin'! (''As Tommy and Chuckie, stare at the "moving" floor, Stu enters the room.'')\ |
| 948 | '''Stu''': Tommy, Chuckie, are you down here? (''turns on the light'') Oh, thank--what?! DIDI! COME QUICK! THE GERBILS HAVE REPRODUCED! (''the basement is littered with'' ''thousands'' ''of gerbils'') |

| 951 | !! Angelica's Worst Nightmare |
| 952 | * Angelica calls a TV psychiatrist to ask for advice about the impending new baby: |
| 953 | --> '''Doctor''': All right, what you need to understand is that there are other people in this world. Things don't revolve around you. You need to learn to share and let others take the spotlight once in a while. What do you say to that? Angelica? ''(TV is thrown in the trash)'' Angelica?\ |
| 954 | '''Angelica''': What a quack. |
| 955 | !! The Mega Diaper Babies |
| 956 | * This piece of dialogue: |
| 957 | -->'''Changeling''': You'll never get away with this, Angelicatron! |
| 958 | -->'''Angelica''': ''(as Angelitron)'' Aw shut up, you dumb doll. |
| 959 | ** Three words: Dotted Line Girl. |
| 960 | !! New Kid In Town |
| 961 | !! Pickles vs Pickles |
| 962 | * When Angelica's in court: |
| 963 | -->'''Angelica:''' Your Highness, if it pleases the corpse, I'd like to act as my own lawyer. |
| 964 | * The judge allowing Angelica to elicit "testimonies" from dolls and stuffed animals. |
| 965 | !! Kid TV |
| 966 | * Phil and Lil make fun of a soap opera. Angelica, not realizing what a soap opera is (she assumes that it's like a regular opera), comes on wearing a Viking outfit and singing about how if it's an opera, they have to sing. |
| 967 | ** During the soap opera, Lil claims a doctor is taking her brain out tomorrow. |
| 968 | * Special mention goes to the climax, as Chuckie tries doing a news broadcast over the chaos of the rest of the kids chasing each other around. |
| 969 | * Phil and Lil calling beauty juice "booty juice". |
| 970 | * During Chuckie's news broadcast, Phil and Lil have a by-proxy insult argument culminating in this gem. |
| 971 | -->'''Chuckie''': Another update: "If brains were gasoline, Lil wouldn't have enough to power an ant's motorcycle around the outside of a penny." |
| 972 | ** Just for the record, the actual unclean and branded joke is funnier. It goes, "If brains were gasoline, you wouldn't have enough to power a piss-ant's go-kart to go two laps around a Cheerio!" |
| 973 | !! The Sky is Falling |
| 974 | * Angelica referring to herself as "Angelica C. Pickles, ''Esquire''." |
| 975 | * Angelica lets loose a hose (she wanted an indoor pool), which drenches the inside of the house. Stu comes home and screams. |
| 976 | -->'''Stu''': Come on, Angelica, you helped make this mess, now you're gonna help clean it up.\ |
| 977 | '''Angelica''': But I don't wanna!\ |
| 978 | ''(Stu hands her a mop and she emits a nervous chuckle)'' |
| 979 | * Angelica claiming that [[InsaneTrollLogic the world has ended before]], and [[SeriousBusiness stating the worst thing that happened was that all the TV shows got cancelled.]] |
| 980 | !! I Remember Melville |
| 981 | * From this [[TearJerker otherwise quite sombre]] episode, there are a few funny bits, including this: |
| 982 | -->'''Tommy:''' I know! We'll get Chuckie a new bug! |
| 983 | -->'''Phil:''' Hey, if we find two bugs, can I eat the other one? |
| 984 | * Phil and Lil are in fantastic form in this episode. |
| 985 | -->'''Tommy:''' Why don't we teach Melville some new tricks and surprise Chuckie? ''(Pokes Melville, who's not moving and lying on his back.)'' Melville? You awake? |
| 986 | -->'''Lil:''' Maybe he's tired! |
| 987 | -->'''Phil:''' Or maybe his batteries ran out. |
| 988 | -->'''Lil:''' Or maybe he's dead. |
| 989 | -->'''Phil:''' ''(brightly)'' Well, this'll surprise Chuckie, alright! |
| 990 | * When Chuckie says "Me and Melville are just fine here. We are not dead, okay?!" |
| 991 | * Chuckie throwing the snail Tommy gave him to replace Melville. |
| 992 | --> '''Chuckie:''' I don't want a new bug! And besides, that's not even a bug! It's a snail! GAH! ''(throws the snail out of the screen)'' |
| 993 | --> '''Phil:''' ...told ya. |
| 994 | !! No More Cookies |
| 995 | * Angelica shows off Cynthia's workout center when she first feels the pain from eating an entire jar of cookies. She drops a toy dumbbell which breaks the glass wall of the playset. |
| 996 | * Angelica's supposedly fake {{Flashback}}. In the first part, it seems like it's going to be a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}, with Angelica's mom and dad telling her to say "mommy" or "daddy", respectively. Her first word? |
| 997 | -->"Coo..hee...cookh...ee..cookie... cookiecookieCOOKIECOOKIECOOKIECOOKIECOOKIECOOKIECOOKIECOOKIE!" |
| 998 | ** It gets even funnier in a later scene, where we see her taking her first steps. Her parents go crazy trying to save the magical moment for posterity...then they realize that she's just trying to get at a plate of chocolate cookies on the table. |
| 999 | * Chuckie blabs that the cookies the babies hid are under Grandpa Lou's bed. She carries them out of Grandpa's bedroom, but she trips over a laundry basket and sends the cookies flying into a tub of soapy water. |
| 1000 | -->'''Chuckie:''' Well, Angelica, I guess you're not gonna eat those cookies now. |
| 1001 | -->'''Angelica:''' Just watch me! ''(jumps into the tub and chows down on the soapy cookies)'' |
| 1002 | * Angelica gets another stomach ache. She moans for Tommy to come closer before screaming "NEVER EVER EVER LET ME HAVE COOKIES AGAIN!" Angelica then burps, and bubbles escape from her mouth. |
| 1003 | !! Cradle Attraction |
| 1004 | !! Moving Away |
| 1005 | !! Passover |
| 1006 | * The Epic win and fail of Chuckie building a pyramid upside down. |

| 1010 | [[folder: Season Four]] |
| 1011 | !! Chanukah |
| 1012 | * "Hey, Tommy, these cradles don't taste like clay!" |
| 1013 | * Angelica is disappointed to find out what latkes really are and throws one on the floor. A man dressed as a large dreidel steps on it, spins around and falls with the "gimel" side pointing up. Another man notices this, shouts "I win!" and snatches a doughnut box he was holding. |
| 1014 | ** [[BrickJoke The dreidel man later tells Angelica "I broke a shin because of you!"]] He turns to point out that [[VisualPun his "shin" side is bandaged up]]. |
| 1015 | * Schlomo picks up a broken television set which a crying Angelica tried to use to watch a Cynthia Christmas special. He drops it, destroying it further, and Angelica cries even louder. |
| 1016 | ** The babies think that the "Meanie of Chanukah" is attacking Angelica, leading to this exchange: |
| 1017 | ---> '''Chuckie:''' (''covering his eyes'') What's happening? |
| 1018 | ---> '''Phil:''' I think the meanie's tryin' to squeeze her guts out! |
| 1019 | ---> '''Lil:''' What do we do? |
| 1020 | ---> '''Phil:''' I know! We can use Tommy's pillowcase and pretend we're a ghost! |
| 1021 | ---> ''(Phil puts on the pillowcase and shambles forward, making a goofy "Oowoo-woo!" noise before immediately walking into a table leg with a comical BOINK sound effect)'' |
| 1022 | ---> '''Lil:''' ...[[DeadpanSnarker That wasn't very scary.]] |
| 1023 | !! Mother's Day |
| 1024 | * Despite being a tearjerker, this episode has Betty entering all the qualities it takes to be a mother into Stu's newest invention. |
| 1025 | --> '''Betty''': A mother needs wisdom for dealing with a fever of 105 at 3 AM on a Sunday. And she's gotta have dignity for when she's covered with spit-up at the supermarket. Plus strength, especially if she's got twins. And optimism, for when she hasn't got any of the rest of that stuff. Yeah, I guess that's about everything it takes to be a mother. ''(Presses enter. The computer starts emitting sirens and smoking)'' |
| 1026 | --> '''Computer:''' WARNING, WARNING, SYSTEM OVERLOAD. ''(Betty pats it affectionately.)'' |
| 1027 | --> '''Betty''': Now you now how I feel, cupcake. |
| 1028 | * Also, Stu ScreamsLikeALittleGirl when his latest invention, a Mother's Day machine that's supposed to make breakfast in bed for Didi, is malfunctioning. |
| 1029 | !! A Rugrats Vacation |
| 1030 | * They go to Las Vegas and Angelica gets up on "stage" in the snack bar and starts singing her own song "Angelica the Beautiful". Then when the mothers leave the Circus Giganticus hotel and see Angelica performing her own rendition of "Vacation" on the big TV outside. Their reactions are priceless. This scene also counts as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome. |
| 1031 | * Angelica trying to pull the microphone away from the singer, then when Stu pulls her away he falls over. |
| 1032 | * While Angelica is singing, all of the adults are frantically trying to stop her or get the babies, except Grandpa! He actually joins Angelica in singing and throws things at the performers who were chasing after her. |
| 1033 | * Stu taking the kids to the buffet. |
| 1034 | -->'''Stu''': Lil, you're supposed to ''eat'' the raisins! |
| 1035 | * Angelica taking the babies for a joyride. |
| 1036 | -->'''Angelica''': And up ahead we see ''(gasps)'' [[ExplainExplainOhCrap my DADDY]]!? |
| 1037 | !! Spike's Babies |
| 1038 | !! Chicken Pops |
| 1039 | * Angelica tells the babies that Chuckie's chicken pox will turn him into a chicken. This leads to one of the babies calling him "Cluckie". |
| 1040 | !! Radio Daze |
| 1041 | * The entire episode in general, being an AffectionateParody of Radio Dramas, with many of the segements turning DeliberatelyMonochrome, complete with the protagonist walking into a juice bar. |
| 1042 | * This exchange between "Madame Evil" (Angelica) and the "Masked [[MalaProper Defective]]" (Tommy): |
| 1043 | -->'''Angelica''': "Where's that woodchuck?" |
| 1044 | -->'''Tommy''': "Chucking wood?" |
| 1045 | !! Psycho Angelica |
| 1046 | * Angelica's mispronouncing "psychic" as "psycho". |
| 1047 | -->'''Angelica''': "I can predict the future. I'm a psycho!" |
| 1048 | !! America's Wackiest Home Movies |
| 1049 | * Every time Angelica sings a HollywoodToneDeaf rendition of "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star". |
| 1050 | * In the park, Drew is filming Angelica singing with a baton on her roller skates and tells her he needs her to do something funny. Angelica tells Drew that she did see a kid on TV do something very funny once and then Drew without context asks her to do that as he films her. Cue Angelica singing again and then swinging the baton straight into Drew for an off-screen [[GroinAttack crotch shot]] in which the camera shakes a little from the impact, Angelica--who was just doing what she was told is confused, the baton is extremely bent since she swung it so hard and Drew is heard first yelling and then moaning in pain right before the camera goes to the SnowyScreenOfDeath. |
| 1051 | * Stu tries to film Tommy in the park with a camera hidden in a large hat. When he puts it on, it's too heavy and he falls into a mud puddle. |
| 1052 | * Stu and Drew each lie to each other about the attempts to film their kids going well right after both incidents with Drew telling Stu after that with "Hey nice hat" and Stu replying with "Nice walk". |
| 1053 | * Stu stepping on a roller skate when he comes home for the surprise party. He careens through the house, crashes into Drew, and they both fall into a cooler. To top it off, his birthday cake falls on both of them. It's then revealed that Lou got it all on tape, and [[DarkHorseVictory his video wins $10,000]] on an episode of ''America's Wackiest Home Movies''. |
| 1054 | !! The 'Lympics |
| 1055 | * Angelica tricking Teddy (the youngest [=McNulty boy=]) into abandoning the race to look for a dead lizard. |
| 1056 | !! The Carwash |
| 1057 | * Tommy impersonates his grandpa while foam fills up the car, by putting bubbles on his face. It later becomes a heartwarming moment when you realize that Tommy's impersonation helps Chuckie get over his fear of the car wash. |
| 1058 | * A moment at the beginning, where the camera cuts back and forth between Chuckie's interpretation of events at the car wash and Chaz's. |
| 1059 | * Chaz and Stu have gotten distracted at the car wash, forgetting to take the babies out of Chaz's van. When Chaz realizes this, he races to the next customer's car, exclaims, "Move over, this is an emergency! I'm a dad!" He proceeds to ''throw the other customer out of his car and drive it into the car wash.'' Doubles as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome. |
| 1060 | !! Heat Wave |
| 1061 | !! Faire Play |
| 1062 | !! The Smell of Success |
| 1063 | * When Chuckie is moping over how his allergies will eventually return, [[BrickJoke Stu's solar-powered lawnmower]] [[FunnyBackgroundEvent can be seen chasing park patrons in the background]]. |
| 1064 | !! Dust Bunnies |
| 1065 | !! Educating Angelica |
| 1066 | * Charlotte tells Angelica that if she doesn't learn to share, then it won't look good on her application to Harvard. |
| 1067 | * Mrs. Appleby fighting with Charlotte over her cell phone. |
| 1068 | !! Angelica's Last Stand |
| 1069 | * Drew would rather drink from the hose than pay Angelica ten cents for lemonade. |
| 1070 | * The babies deciding who should be leader. Phil picks Reptar. |
| 1071 | !! Clan of the Duck |
| 1072 | * Chuckie sees some sumo wrestlers, thinks they're wearing diapers, and wonders why boys can't wear dresses if women can wear pants and grownups can wear diapers. |
| 1073 | -->'''Phil''': (''referring to Frankie and Joey'') Um, cause' they'll beat us up? |
| 1074 | * Chuckie finds himself among a group of Jewish folk dancers, and narrowly avoids being crushed underfoot. When Phil asks him what happened, he replies in a shell-shocked voice [[{{Pun}} "The Hora! The Hora!"]] followed by a {{Main/Rimshot}} |
| 1075 | !! Potty-Training Spike |
| 1076 | * Tommy stating that Spike's a "big-boy doggy" so he needs to use the "big-boy potty". |
| 1077 | * The babies trying to be Spike's "family". |
| 1078 | -->'''Tommy''': "From now on, I'll be Spike's dad!" |
| 1079 | -->'''Chuckie''': "And I'll be...Spike's other dad!" |
| 1080 | -->'''Phil''': "And we could be his uncle Bill and aunt Harriet!" |
| 1081 | * Phil throws himself into the role, inviting Spike to, "Pull my finger, son!" |
| 1082 | !! The Art Fair |
| 1083 | !! Send in the Clouds |
| 1084 | * Lou and Stu arguing with each other: |
| 1085 | -->'''Lou:''' Why do you always lose your keys, dag-nabbit?! |
| 1086 | -->'''Stu:''' Why do you always talk like a prospector when you're aggravated, "con-flabbit?". |
| 1087 | * One of the best scenes is Grandpa naming off past experiences Stu's had with fixing things, all ending in some form of disaster. The best one is obvious. |
| 1088 | -->'''Grandpa:''' And this one! I ''still'' can't figure out. October 5th: change the light bulb in the fridge. Nine stitches, and a case of pink eye? |
| 1089 | -->'''Stu''': Alright! Alright, I'll buy a first-aid kit! |
| 1090 | !! In the Naval |
| 1091 | !! The Turkey Who Came to Dinner |
| 1092 | !! The Mattress |
| 1093 | * This exchange when Stu and Didi catch the babies trying to attack the monster in Lou's mattress: |
| 1094 | -->'''Didi:''' Stu, you've got to get rid of that old thing.\ |
| 1095 | '''Stu:''' You mean Pop?\ |
| 1096 | '''Didi:''' Very funny. |

| 1100 | -->'''Charlotte:''' ''(to Tommy)'' Say bye-bye to Mommy!\ |
| 1101 | '''Jonathan:''' Bye-bye, Mommy!\ |
| 1102 | '''Charlotte:''' No, not you, Jonathan. |
| 1103 | * Jack, the (presumably) mafioso restauranteur (voiced by Creator/JoeMantegna) telling Angelica she has spunk. |
| 1104 | -->'''Angelica:''' I got spunk? [[IsItSomethingYouEat Is that good?]] |
| 1105 | * The restaurant owner calling her "Angie" instead of by her real name is kind of funny. |
| 1106 | * And how did they come to ''meet'' Jack? Angelica went looking for him when her mother's car broke down and she lamented that [[{{Pun}} they'd "need the jack"]] to fix it. |
| 1107 | * The "Dummi Bears" theme song as an accordion ballad. You CantUnhearIt. |
| 1108 | * Jack [[RealMenWearPink turning to complete gleeful mush]] when Angelica mentions the Dummy Bears show they're on their way to. Admit it: you laughed... and [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments then you cried]]. |
| 1109 | !! Ransom of Cynthia |
| 1110 | !! Turtle Recall |
| 1111 | !! Angelica Orders Out |
| 1112 | * When Angelica is mad that Grandpa Lou won't order her any dessert from a home delivery deli (aside from baked apples, [[DoesNotLikeSpam which she hates]]) she calls the place when Grandpa Lou is asleep to order some dessert. When the delivery person tells her that she's too young, she uses Stu's new voice-changing gadget that makes her sound exactly like her mother. She then orders every single dessert they have for delivery, including flan. When the delivery boy shows up, she grabs a picture of Didi, and speaks to the delivery boy through the mail slot. |
| 1113 | -->'''Angelica''': Just leave the bags by the door. |
| 1114 | -->'''Delivery Boy:''' Huh? Who said that? |
| 1115 | -->''(we see a picture of Didi peeking through the mail slot in the door)'' |
| 1116 | -->'''Angelica:''' Down here! Just leave the bags and go away! |
| 1117 | -->'''Delivery Boy:''' Oh! Um... okay. Sure! Thanks for calling Zippy's Snappy Home Delivery. |
| 1118 | -->[[BeatPanel (beat)]] |
| 1119 | -->'''Angelica:''' Go away! (closes the slot) |
| 1120 | * The second person Angelica calls is Drew whom she demands to buy a huge Cynthia playset. |
| 1121 | --> '''Angelica:''' Oh, hello, Da... I mean, Drew. This is Charlotte Pickles speaking. |
| 1122 | --> '''Drew:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Yeah, thanks for telling me, Hon. I never would have guessed]]. |
| 1123 | !! Let it Snow |
| 1124 | !! Angelica Nose Best |
| 1125 | * Phil gets a good one when Angelica refuses to believe her nose has grown. |
| 1126 | --> '''Angelica:''' My mommy says I have a pretty nose. |
| 1127 | --> '''Phil:''' Yeah. Pretty big. |
| 1128 | * Angelica chases the babies and ends up smashing a priceless vase Charlotte has in the hallway. So she blames it on the babies, but tells Charlotte not to hold it against them. GilliganCut to the babies in the playpen. |
| 1129 | --> '''Chuckie:''' [[{{Understatement}} Now this doesn't seem fair...]] |
| 1130 | * Angelica's attempts at telling the truth to Charlotte? |
| 1131 | --> "The sky is blue...and playgrounds are fun...and Grandpa Lou is ''old''." |
| 1132 | ** The first one is HilariousInHindsight in ''All Grown Up'' when Angelica fakes having brain damage by saying "the sky is green" as her MadnessMantra. |
| 1133 | * Grandpa Lou sadly makes things worse for Angelica when it turns out his grand prize for selling the chocolate bars is a fun house mirror - which of course makes her nose look even bigger. |

| 1136 | |
| 1137 | |
| 1138 | [[folder: Season Five]] |
| 1139 | !! Grandpa's Bad Bug |
| 1140 | * The premise of the episode is that Grandpa Lou lied that he caught a bug, causing the babies to think he ate a bad bug. |
| 1141 | ** Their first attempt at catching the bug is by luring it out with a moldy piece of cake and an old chunk of a hot dog. This leads to Lou swallowing the food in his sleep and coughing it out. Stu rushes in the bedroom, and Grandpa says "Tastes like I just swallowed a conflabbed sweat sock!" |
| 1142 | ** The babies then try to remove it from Lou themselves. They mistake his uvula for the bug and snag it with a pair of pliers. |
| 1143 | ** They then go outside and search for good bugs to fight the bad bug. They come into his bedroom with a bucket and armfuls of bugs which they dump on his bed. Lou wakes up in total panic, screaming for help. Tommy declares their plan a success, and Lou confesses to Stu and Didi that he lied about the bad bug. |
| 1144 | !! Lady Luck |
| 1145 | * The twins think the shuffleboard pucks are cookies. Phil and Lil try to bite into one... |
| 1146 | --> '''Lil:''' I think this cookie is older than we are. |
| 1147 | !! Hiccups |
| 1148 | * To get rid of Tommy's hiccups, Angelica plans to scare him. But Tommy is too brave, so he asks Chuckie to teach him how to be afraid. HilarityEnsues. |
| 1149 | ** On the second attempt, Angelica tries to emulate the Boogey Man. |
| 1150 | -->'''Chuckie''': AAAAH! The Booger Man! |
| 1151 | -->'''Angelica''': That's ''Boogie'' Man, you dumb baby! |
| 1152 | !! Autumn Leaves |
| 1153 | * The premise is that the babies think a tree is sick because its leaves are changing. When they wonder why it got sick, Tommy thinks it's because it's a maple tree but got apple juice spilled on it, which he thinks is like feeding a fish bird food, and decides that to make it "better", he must pour maple syrup on it. |
| 1154 | * The babies keep releasing the leaves that Stu's Leaf Lifter puts into boxes. Stu kicks the Leaf Lifter which comes to life and destroys his shirt. |
| 1155 | !! Crime and Punishment |
| 1156 | * When the babies think that the female cop whom Chas is attached to will arrest Chuckie for breaking Chas' glasses, they decide to have Chuckie lick a bar of soap so he can [[PlayingSick pretend to be sick]]. Chas, who is BlindWithoutEm, only mistakes the soap-covered Chuckie for a mad dog. |
| 1157 | ** And later, after Chuckie has had his mouth rinsed out... |
| 1158 | -->'''Chuckie''': Blech! That tasted terrible! |
| 1159 | -->'''Phil''': Oh, I dunno... ''(burp)'' |
| 1160 | * The babies deciding that Chuckie should be CoveredInMud in order for Chas to take him home. |
| 1161 | -->'''Phil''': Man, now he gets his own mud puddle to jump in! Chuckie's havin' the best day of my life! |
| 1162 | * After the babies create a mud puddle in the middle of the lawn, Chas tries to bring the kids back inside, only to [[SlipperySkid slip in the mud]]. Stu, Didi, and the cop follow after him and end up similarly CoveredInMud. |
| 1163 | * When it becomes clear to the babies that the cop's not mad at anyone after finding Chas' broken glasses, the babies decide to play in the mud, resulting in an EverybodyLaughsEnding. |
| 1164 | !! Baby Maybe |
| 1165 | !! The Word of the Day |
| 1166 | * The sheer unbridled enthusiasm Angelica has for saying exactly "what Miss Carol thinks of her kids ([[CensoredForComedy whatever it is]]) while having no idea ''why'' it's making all the grownups upset. Hell, the funniest part is just how relatable it is: what kid ''wouldn't'' have done what she did in those circumstances? |
| 1167 | * This conversation: |
| 1168 | --> '''Chuckie''': "How can a word be bad anyway?" |
| 1169 | --> '''Tommy''': "I guess a bad word is a word that people don't wanna hear." |
| 1170 | --> '''Phil''': "Then I know a really bad word...'bath'" |
| 1171 | * The parents telling Angelica not to say bad words. |
| 1172 | --> '''Drew''': "And since your Fun Phrase has a bad word in it, it would make Mommy and me happy if you just didn't say it anymore." |
| 1173 | --> '''Angelica''': "Well, which word is the bad one, Daddy?" |
| 1174 | --> '''Drew''': "Well, it's...I mean...It's the...look, maybe it would just be better if you didn't say ''any'' of those words anymore, Angelica." |
| 1175 | --> '''Angelica''': "Is it 'we're'?" |
| 1176 | --> '''Drew''': "Angelica!" |
| 1177 | --> '''Angelica''': "Is it 'all'?" |
| 1178 | --> '''Charlotte''': "Angelica, you are not to say that word again." |
| 1179 | --> '''Angelica''': "Is it 'little'?" |
| 1180 | --> '''Drew''': ''(angry, talking quickly)'' "Angelica! If you say that word one more time, we are ''not'' gonna take you to be on Miss Carol's show!" |
| 1181 | --> '''Angelica''': "Oh, you mean it's--" |
| 1182 | --> (''Cut to outside of the house where a construction worker is drilling with his noisy jackhammer, drowning out the word, followed by Charlotte's terrified scream'') |
| 1183 | * At Ms. Carol's show, Ms. Carol asks the first two auditionees what the new "fun-phrase" is. Timmy cracks under the pressure and freezes in place. Kim has a huge grin on her face until Ms. Carol points the microphone in her direction. Kim screams "IWantMyMommy" and runs off the set; Ms. Carol reacts to it with an epic AsideGlance. |
| 1184 | * Ms. Carol then asks Angelica the "fun-phrase" and Angelica becomes conflicted trying to prevent herself from saying the word. Losing her patience, Ms. Carol repeats herself and Angelica says the word. Miss Carol, who [[DepravedKidsShowHost already clearly hates her job]] and is starting to crack while doing these auditions, tries to throw her out, as Angelica, who [[CassandraTruth has yet to have a single adult believe her]], insists that that ''is'' in fact what she said. Finally at the end of her rope, a [[SanitySlippage manic]] Miss Carol turns to the camera and... |
| 1185 | -->'''Miss Carol''': "You are all ''little''-! |
| 1186 | -->''([[CurseCutShort cut to color bars]] and two people in the control room exchanging shocked expressions)'' |
| 1187 | -->'''Angelica''': ''(ecstatic)'' See?! See?! She ''did'' say it! |
| 1188 | * As they watch at home, Stu, Didi and Grandpa [[VisualGag make the "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" faces]] from the couch. |

| 1193 | -->'''Tommy:''' (After everybody gives him a puzzled look) My Grandpa Boris always says that to Spike. |
| 1194 | * Chuckie climbs on the Piggy animatronic only for Lil to trip to lever which starts the show. Chuckie tries to stay on, but he accidentally dislodges Piggy's head before falling to the floor. |
| 1195 | -->'''Chuckie''': All I wanted was a slice of pizza. |
| 1196 | ** A father/daughter pair notice the babies on stage. |
| 1197 | --->'''Father:''' Hey, what's going on? What are those kids doing up there?\ |
| 1198 | '''Daughter:''' Daddy! I want to be on stage too! |

| 1206 | * When Chuckie thinks he's gonna grow gigantic, [[DevilInPlainSight Angelica]] tricks him into thinking he squashed her (by cutting out a photo of herself and crudely gluing it her Cynthia doll), and the babies try to convince him he must be mistaken. |
| 1207 | -->'''Phil:''' And even if you did...[[AssholeVictim that's okay.]] |
| 1208 | !! Babysitting Fluffy |
| 1209 | * Lil thinks that to "babysit" Fluffy, she must wear a diaper and drink from a bottle. |
| 1210 | * The ending reveal of a bald Fluffy after getting stuck in the asphalt that the adults were trying lay out, and Chuckie now telling Angelica how to look after her in her current state. |
| 1211 | !! Sleep Trouble |
| 1212 | * Stu and Didi trying to get Tommy and Chuckie to go to sleep by using sock puppets. |
| 1213 | !! The Wild Wild West |
| 1214 | !! Angelica for a Day |
| 1215 | * Angelica acting like Chuckie is fantastic, including believing Chuckie's lie to the other kids that a giant worm is hiding in the sandbox. Essentially getting a taste of what the babies go through whenever she lies to them ([[{{Pun}} you might say the shoe is on the other foot]]). |
| 1216 | * Tommy also gets increasingly exasperated with how timid Angelica is. Especially when a pair of bullies come to them, and she tries to hide under his t-shirt. |
| 1217 | --> [[WeWantOurJerkBack "I never thought I'd miss the old Angelica.]]" |
| 1218 | * How does Chuckie deal with the bullies? [[PokeThePoodle Smearing a little bit of mud on their t-shirts]]. Bonus points for Tommy [[AnythingButThat covering his eyes in horror]]. |
| 1219 | !! Uneasy Rider |
| 1220 | !! Where's Grandpa? |
| 1221 | * Stu chases after a train carrying Tommy and Chuckie. The train stops just before it can go off a cliff... but then it goes backwards and Stu has to run ''from'' it. The train somehow manages to chase Stu into the parking lot. |
| 1222 | !! Journey to the Center of the Basement |
| 1223 | !! A Very [=McNulty=] Birthday |
| 1224 | !! The Family Tree |
| 1225 | * Tommy and Chuckie believe they came from the same family tree, and they think that they're brothers. Lil wishes that she had a brother, only to remember that she does upon seeing [[ImStandingRightHere Phil]] [[DeathGlare glaring at her with his hands on his hips]]. |
| 1226 | * When Chuckie thinks he has to leave home because he believes his dad loves Tommy better than him, Phil and Lil offer to let him stay with them. Lil warps the offer hilariously: |
| 1227 | -->'''Phil:''' Maybe you could live with us!\ |
| 1228 | '''Lil:''' Yeah! You can share our daddy, [[ComedicSociopathy and Phil can go live in the forest!]] (''Phil shoots Lil another DeathGlare'') |
| 1229 | * Angelica distracts Tommy so Chuckie can ruin the food Chuckie's grandma was making with Tommy, in order to get Tommy in trouble (as Chuckie thinks Tommy is trying to steal his family). When they dart off Tommy turns and stares at the destruction in utter confusion, looking utterly cute as well. |

| 1234 | !! Chuckie's Duckling |
| 1235 | * Chuckie and Tommy are playing cowboys, with Tommy as the bad guy. When he asks how Chuckie will stop him Chuckie, flustered, admits he was just going to ask Tommy to go to jail. Tommy happily does so. |
| 1236 | * Dil shoving Herbert the duckling in his diaper. Cue him squealing and giggling the entire trip to the park. |
| 1237 | !! A Dog's Life |
| 1238 | !! Angelica's Twin |
| 1239 | !! Raising Dil |
| 1240 | * Tommy tries to teach Dil how to talk like a big baby, explaining several things in great detail. When it finally gets to the third thing Tommy just says, "This is a sock. Say sock." |
| 1241 | ** Dil responding to each item by declaring, "Mine." Phil points out he knows that word really good. |
| 1242 | * Tommy, Chuckie, Phil and Lil thinking Dil is smarter than Angelica because he can put his toes in his mouth and she can't. |
| 1243 | * Chuckie tries to see if Dil fears anything by having him imagine Phil is a monster and Lil is Didi with a blankie and seeing which one he chooses as the better one. He chooses Chuckie instead. |
| 1244 | !! No Naps |
| 1245 | !! Man of the House |
| 1246 | !! A Whole New Stu |
| 1247 | !! Submarine |
| 1248 | !! Chuckie's a Lefty |
| 1249 | * This moment: |
| 1250 | --> '''Didi''': "Chuckie is very artistic, Chas? Hey, I've never noticed this before, but is he left-handed?" |
| 1251 | --> '''Chas''': "I don't know. He's been switching over. I think it's perfectly normal." |
| 1252 | --> '''Charlotte''': "Normal?! Don't you know what being left-handed means?!" |
| 1253 | --> '''Chas''': "Um...using your left hand?" |
| 1254 | * Didi says that only about 10% of the population is left-handed--Angelica mispronounces it as "poopulation" and thinks it means there's only ten actual left-handers in the world. |
| 1255 | !! Baking Dil |
| 1256 | !! Hair! |
| 1257 | * Lou and his army buddy are laughing over their baldness and fat tummies and how they tried to cover it up (only for Dil to basically "unfurl" the ruse) when Tommy walks in wearing his grandpa's toupee. Both Lou and the army buddy are still laughing, while Didi basically has a -__- look on her face. |
| 1258 | !! Zoo Story |
| 1259 | * The babies believe that a Billy Goat is a goat named Bill and used to be a human baby instead of just a regular baby animal. HilarityEnsues as they try to break out before they turn into animals too. |
| 1260 | * At the end, the adults talk about where to take the kids next. |
| 1261 | -->'''Chaz''': Maybe next time we should take the kids minature golfing.\ |
| 1262 | '''Stu''': [[Recap/RugratsS2E5AngelicasInLoveIceCreamMountain Tried it.]]\ |
| 1263 | '''Howard''': How about bowling?\ |
| 1264 | '''Stu''': [[Recap/RugratsS2E23KingTenPinRunawayAngelica Tried it.]]\ |
| 1265 | '''Chaz''': Swimming down at the community center?\ |
| 1266 | '''Stu''': [[Recap/RugratsS2E22TheSlideTheBigFlush Tried it.]] |
| 1267 | !! I Do |
| 1268 | * The premise is that the babies think you must get married if you say, "I do" to someone, regardless of context. |
| 1269 | * In the little playhouse Chuckie and Lil have to pretend to live in after they get pretend married, the toy TV has a picture of Angelica taped onto the screen. |
| 1270 | * To keep Chuckie and Lil from going outside to play with Tommy and Phil, Angelica tells them they have to take care of their baby, and hands them Dil. This exchange occurs between Chuckie and Lil: |
| 1271 | -->'''Chuckie''' Wow. We got a baby.\ |
| 1272 | '''Lil:''' I wish we'd talkeded about it first, I don't know if I'm ready! |
| 1273 | * At the end, when the babies decide to all marry each other because Chuckie and Lil miss Tommy and Phil, Tommy asks an annoyed Angelica if she wants to join them. [[TheFriendNobodyLikes Cue Chuckie, Phil and Lil all panicking and begging her not to take the offer.]] |
| 1274 | * Angelica trying to marry Dil and Cynthia leads to this gem: |
| 1275 | -->'''Dil:''' (''grabbing at Cynthia'') MINE!\ |
| 1276 | '''Angelica:''' Not ''yet!'' You gotta get married first! |
| 1277 | !! The Magic Baby |
| 1278 | * The shock the babies make when they realize that Dil ate their Magic Beans. |
| 1279 | * "What do they think is gonna happen? [[TemptingFate That they're going to wish for mud and a bunch of it is gonna come flying out the window?"]] |
| 1280 | ** "I gave up ''real'' magic beans for a dumb pony?!" |
| 1281 | !! Dil We Meet Again |
| 1282 | !! Hand Me Downs |
| 1283 | * Susie explains to Tommy and Chuckie that hand-me-downs have to go from someone who's older to someone who's younger, claiming that if they were the other way around, they've be called "hand-me-''ups''." |
| 1284 | * Angelica's elaborate story about how hand me downs caused a sister of Susie's that the babies never met to vanish. She tells the babies not to mention it to Susie so as not to upset her. |
| 1285 | --> "The last time they had to take a boat to the bathroom just so she could blow her nose." |
| 1286 | * Stu is pleading with Didi not to give the boys hand me downs either, claiming it affected his relationship with Drew. He chases her yelling "I wore the man's underwear for six years!" - and then immediately notices a (very uncomfortable!) Lucy sitting in the room. |
| 1287 | !! Angelica's Ballet |
| 1288 | !! Opposites Attract |
| 1289 | !! The Art Museum |
| 1290 | !! The Jungle |
| 1291 | * Dil is smart enough to know that Phil's full name is Phillip... but dumb enough to assume that means Lil's name is Lillip. |
| 1292 | !! The Old Country |
| 1293 | * The ending, where after Tommy and Chuckie believe they've saved Boris and Minka's rustic cabin from the "elephants" (having [[MondegreenGag misheard "elements"]] earlier on), Stu has been making shadow puppets, and then claims to the kids he's "saved the best for last." He makes a shadow puppet of a menacing-looking elephant head (complete with the sound of an angry elephant trumpeting), and then it [[TheScream cuts to outside as Tommy and Chuckie scream long and loud]] and the episode ends. |
| 1294 | !! Ghost Story |
| 1295 | * Chuckie's attempt at telling the most un-scary "scary story" he can think of so he won't scare himself: |
| 1296 | -->'''Chuckie''': So, um...the boy opened the door, and...he finded the most beautifulest room with lots of flowers and big fluffy pillows and bowls filled to the top with yummy candy! So the haunted house wasn't haunted after all, and the scaredy boy wasn't scared no more. The End!\ |
| 1297 | '''Angelica''': ''[[BigWHAT WHAT?!]]'' You can't end it like that! That wasn't even scary! A scary story doesn't got flowers and pillows and candy! Now tell it right! Or I'll start telling the story again!\ |
| 1298 | '''Chuckie''': So, then, um...the boy, uh, opened the door...and the room was kinda dark. And there was pillows, but they was hard and lumpy. And the candy was yucky.\ |
| 1299 | '''Angelica''': (''perplexed'') That's, err...a ''little'' better. Er... [[SureLetsGoWithThat Works good enough for me.]] |
| 1300 | * Ghost Tommy tries convincing the monsters to not eat them because there is a heaping bowl of pudding in the kitchen instead. Indecisive, [[WesternAnimation/AaahhRealMonsters Ickis]] proceeds to lick Chuckie's face and decides that they should get the pudding instead. |
| 1301 | !! Chuckie's Complaint |
| 1302 | * Chuckie's idea of an "angry letter". [[note]] He was writing about an ad that showed Reptar breaking into a house and eating a boy's cereal. [[/note]] |
| 1303 | --> Dear Reptar. It was not very nice of you to take that boy's cereal. You should have asked him first, or, y'know, at least left him some. Although that was a pretty hole you left in the wall and you roared pretty good, but did you have to eat the bowl too? |
| 1304 | !! Pedal Pusher |
| 1305 | !! Music |
| 1306 | * Phil and Lil singing a parody of "Daisy, Daisy" about arguing over a trike. |
| 1307 | !! Chuckie's Bachelor Pad |
| 1308 | !! Junior Prom |
| 1309 | !! Silent Angelica |
| 1310 | !! Tie My Shoes |
| 1311 | * The way Angelica learned to tie shoes was by watching a video that shows a woman singing a song while tying together shoelaces that look like snakes. Angelica can never get the song straight. |
| 1312 | ** Real song: |
| 1313 | ---> Take Hissy and Sissy and make 'em flail. Reach 'em back and bite their tails. Eat those tails; they're so yummy, so fold them up and tie their tummies. |
| 1314 | ** First attempt. |
| 1315 | --->'''Angelica''': "Let's see. First the snake eats itself, how dumb, now fold them up and...tie...their..tummies!" |
| 1316 | ** Second attempt. |
| 1317 | --->'''Angelica''': "Okay, so the two snakes is hungry, so they need tummies. No, that's not it. Uh, snakes is yummy so bite their tummies. No, that's not it either." |
| 1318 | !! What's Your Line? |
| 1319 | !! Two By Two |
| 1320 | !! All's Well That Pretends Well |
| 1321 | * Didi asks the babies if they're excited about going to the circus and says that she can't remember the last time she saw a French-Canadian interpretation of the Dummi Bears show. She then looks thoughtful and adds, "Maybe never". |
| 1322 | * Angelica pronouncing "epidemic" as "epidermis". |
| 1323 | * Phil and Lil argue over who's more funny-looking. |
| 1324 | * When the babies have ice cream on their faces, Didi [[GrossoutFakeout mistakes it for snot]]. So she's thoroughly grossed out when Betty (who knows it's ice cream) tastes some! |
| 1325 | !! Big Babies |
| 1326 | !! Wrestling Grandpa |
| 1327 | !! Chuckie Collects |

| 1329 | !! Share and Share a Spike |
| 1330 | !! Tommy for Mayor |
| 1331 | !! Brothers are Monsters |
| 1332 | * The end of the episode, when Betty's brother stops by and says, "Big ''sisters'' are monsters". Tommy then says to Phil "Isn't Lil a teeny bit older than you?". Lil turns around with pretzel sticks for fangs and Phil runs away in terror, [[EatTheCamera his screaming mouth engulfing the screen with black]]. |
| 1333 | !! Cooking With Susie |
| 1334 | * Stu's increasingly disastrous attempts at perfecting his Doorstopper 3000 invention. The second attempt yanks a door out of its frame, and the third causes another door to ''fly through the roof''. |
| 1335 | !! Officer Chuckie |
| 1336 | * The safety guy says a rhyme, "Never pet a dog that's strange to you. That'd be a dangerous thing to do." Chuckie misinterprets the last line as "Or you might get something on your shoe", and when Tommy points out that Spike isn't a stranger, Chuckie says, "How do we know that's Spike?!". |
| 1337 | * Chuckie blowing his whistle on Lil for running with scissors. The block she was carrying has a picture of a pair of scissors. |
| 1338 | !! Auctioning Grandpa |
| 1339 | !! Partners in Crime |
| 1340 | !! Thumb's Up |
| 1341 | !! Planting Dil |
| 1342 | * The whole plot is funny: when Didi says that she will plant some dill, the kids think she will be planting the baby. |
| 1343 | ** The Rugrats' shared nightmare of a field full of Dil heads that all begin screaming and crying. |
| 1344 | !! The Joke's On You |
| 1345 | * When Drew calls Stu a sucker, we get this: |
| 1346 | -->'''Angelica:''' It's gonna be lots of fun staying at your house today, Uncle Sucker... I mean, Uncle Stu! |
| 1347 | * When Angelica steals Lil's bow and puts it on Phil, the twins think they've been turned into each other. |
| 1348 | * The babies demand that Dil, who at this point has been just babbling and giggling in his own little world, to explain himself. Dil actually stops and delievers a baby babble statement, with it clear he's actually thinking rather hard about what to say. |
| 1349 | !! Big Showdown |
| 1350 | !! Doctor Susie |
| 1351 | !! Accidents Happen |
| 1352 | * Chuckie [[EmbarrassingDampSheets wets the bed]] and after a misunderstanding from his dad, starts to worry that he's relapsing from his potty training. When the others suggest that he'll end up like Dil, we get this exchange: |
| 1353 | -->'''Dil:''' Poopy!\ |
| 1354 | '''Chuckie:''' (''gasps'') You mean I'm gonna start doing ''that'' in my pants again and...(''thoroughly uncomfortable'') telling everyone when I do it!?\ |
| 1355 | '''[[DeadpanSnarker Phil]]:''' It's okay to keep ''[[TooMuchInformation some]]'' secrets, Chuckie. |
| 1356 | * When Tommy suggests that Chuckie wet the bed because he was having too much fun dreaming about the jungle-themed game he'd played during the day to remember to go potty, Chuckie yells, "You mean every time we do something fun, I'm gonna pee in the bed!?". |
| 1357 | * When Chuckie wets the bed, Tommy is sleeping in his bed, so Tommy asks if they went swimming. |
| 1358 | * Chas gives Chuckie some training pants, which he describes as being, according to his father, "Definitely different from diapers." However, when Lil pokes Chuckie's training pants and hears that it makes the same crinkling sound, she and Phil say in unison, "Diapies." Soon after, Lil notes that a benefit of diapers is that you can "stay and go at the same time". |
| 1359 | !! Pee-Wee Scouts |
| 1360 | !! Chuckie's New Shirt |
| 1361 | * Chuckie doesn't feel like himself without his favourite shirt and tries to rename himself Ralph (while the twins call him Stinky for Phil and Twinkly for Lil). He tries taking the new one off, only to "feel nakie", and when Didi jokingly calls him a "handsome stranger", he sees this as more proof he isn't himself. |
| 1362 | ** During this scene, Phil and Lil wonder why Chuckie is making such a huge deal over a shirt... only to cry when Chuckie asks them how they'd feel if Howard took ''their'' shirts. |
| 1363 | !! Cave Babies |
| 1364 | !! The Incredible Shrinking Babies |
| 1365 | !! Miss Manners |
| 1366 | !! A Dose of Dil |
| 1367 | * Angelica claiming that pretending to be injured isn't "lying", it's "acting". |
| 1368 | !! Famous Babies |
| 1369 | * Angelica puts sand down Chuckie's shorts, and Chuckie sings about how uncomfortable it is. |
| 1370 | !! No Place Like Home |
| 1371 | * Susie [[TheTonsillitisEpisode has to have her tonsils removed]]. Angelica attempts to provide well-wishes by bringing in a life-sized Cynthia doll. |
| 1372 | -->'''Angelica:''' ''[moves Cynthia's mouth to make it look like she's singing]'' I'm real sorry to hear about your toenails.\ |
| 1373 | '''Susie:''' It's my ''tonsils'', not my toenails! |
| 1374 | * Chuckie, seeing Dil play with a Goober doll, thinks he wants Susie to have it while she has her surgery. Dil is rather startled by this. |
| 1375 | * Tommy the Strawbaby saying he's been stuck in the pen for ages... ten whole minutes. |
| 1376 | * When Tommy the Strawbaby tells the Tin Twins they can ask the Lizard for yummy worms to eat, Phil decides to cut out the middle man: |
| 1377 | -->'''Phil:''' Or we can eat the Lizard. |
| 1378 | * Tommy asks the Cowardly Chuckie what he is scared of. Cue a time cut of all the babies, even Tommy, sitting there bored out of their minds as Chuckie rattles off very thing that has ever scared him. |
| 1379 | * The "Lizard" is Angelica hiding behind Dil, pretending to be him, leading to this bit where Dil reveals the truth as only he can: |
| 1380 | -->'''Dil:''' ''[grunting]'' Poopie!\ |
| 1381 | '''Angelica:''' Don't you dare!\ |
| 1382 | '''Dil:''' ''[giggling]'' Poopie! Poopie!\ |
| 1383 | '''Angelica:''' That does it! You're not sitting on my lap no more! |

| 1390 | !! Acorn Nuts and Diapey Butts |
| 1391 | * Throughout the special, Phil and Lil get dressed in super-absorbent diapers that Betty got on sale. The new diapers are so bulky, that the twins can hardly move in them. At one point, the twins have had enough and decide to take them off. When they do so, they are so happy to have the new diapers off, that they run through their house, waving them in the air and shouting, "Freedom!". Howard is shocked when he sees this, and he chases after them to try to re-diaper them before they have an accident on the carpet he just cleaned. |
| 1392 | * This paraphrasing: |
| 1393 | --> '''Tommy:''' [[Film/{{Network}} I'm mad, I smell, and I'm not gonna take it anymore!]] |
| 1394 | !! Finsterella |
| 1395 | * At the beginning, Chuckie is in his high chair, and he and the adults have a little fun with him being able to talk. It's even funnier because Chuckie has a big smile on his face the whole time: |
| 1396 | -->'''Kira:''' (hands Chuckie a muffin) Would you like something to eat, Chuckie? |
| 1397 | -->'''Chuckie:''' No. (takes a bite of the muffin) |
| 1398 | -->'''Chaz:''' (hands Chuckie a sippy cup) Are you thirsty, little fella? |
| 1399 | -->'''Chuckie:''' No. (takes a sip out of the cup) |
| 1400 | -->'''Marvin:''' You ever gonna amount to anything, Chuck? |
| 1401 | -->'''Chuckie:''' [[CrossesTheLineTwice No.]] |
| 1402 | -->'''Chaz:''' Our Chuckie talks. |
| 1403 | -->'''Chuckie:''' [[RunningGag No.]] |
| 1404 | * Chas reading the story of ''Cinderella'' to the babies: |
| 1405 | -->'''Chas:''' ''Once upon a time, there was a young girl named Cinderella, who lived with her mean stepmother and her two awful stepsisters in a big house. They gave poor Cinderella rags to wear, and made her work from morning to night. She even had to sleep on the floor!'' Which can result in sciatica if you're not careful. |
| 1406 | * During a dream Chuckie has where he really is Finsterella, he is doing chores when the doorbell rings. He rushes over to the front door, finding Phil and Lil respectively dressed as Hansel and Gretel (inspired by the twins fighting over the book earlier in the episode). This exchange occurs: |
| 1407 | -->'''Chuckie''' Yes?\ |
| 1408 | '''Phil:''' ''(with Swedish accent)'' Yah, I'm Hansel and she's Gretel.\ |
| 1409 | '''Chuckie:''' I can see that, Phil. What do you want?\ |
| 1410 | '''Lil:''' ''(Swedish accent)'' Yah, we're losted.\ |
| 1411 | '''Chuckie:''' Well, you're more lost than you think cause' you're in the wrong story!\ |
| 1412 | '''Lil:''' ''(regular voice)'' Whoopsie!\ |
| 1413 | '''Phil:''' ''(regular voice)'' Sorry! |
| 1414 | * Later in Chuckie's dream, when he is forced to stay home while Angelica and Kimi go to the party, leaving him in tears: |
| 1415 | -->'''Chuckie:''' I'm crying, Fairy Bobmother!\ |
| 1416 | ''(Nothing happens)''\ |
| 1417 | '''Chuckie:''' I said I'm crying, Fairy Bobmother! |
| 1418 | |
| 1419 | !! Dil Saver |
| 1420 | * The whole premise is that they think Dil is trapped in the computer because there's a screensaver of him and they can hear him through the baby monitor. Then, Dil makes a noise that sounds like "pee-pee". |
| 1421 | -->'''Phil''': "Pee? Now? Okay." |
| 1422 | -->'''Lil''': "No, Philip. I think he means "P" like in the alphabetty song." |
| 1423 | * The interactions between the babies and the computer voice. |
| 1424 | -->'''Computer''': "Do you want help?" |
| 1425 | -->'''Tommy''': "Dil can talk now? What's happened to his voice?!" |
| 1426 | -->'''Angelica''': "That's not Dil, stupid. It's the compooper!" |
| 1427 | |
| 1428 | -->'''Computer''': "Do you want to send?" |
| 1429 | -->'''Tommy''': "Yes! Send Dil back to us!" |
| 1430 | |
| 1431 | -->'''Computer''': "Delete?" |
| 1432 | -->'''Tommy''': "Yeah! Dil eat! How do we make him eat?" |
| 1433 | * The kids misinterpreting computer terms, such as thinking Dil should eat because computers have menus, wondering if he's cold because they can freeze, or wondering why he can't just crawl out because they have windows. |
| 1434 | !! Cooking with Phil and Lil |
| 1435 | !! Piece of Cake |
| 1436 | * The episode begins with Angelica devouring an entire cake even though her mother Charlotte told her not to. Surprisingly, Angelica doesn't get in trouble for it and she continues getting her way, from the babies giving her their cookies to becoming head of a corporation that makes merchandise based on her. It eventually turns out that the whole thing was a daydream and that Angelica didn't even touch the cake. Charlotte then offers her daughter a piece of cake, only for Angelica to run screaming. |
| 1437 | !! Angelicon |
| 1438 | * This beautiful bit of snark from ''Chuckie'' of all characters! |
| 1439 | -->'''Lil:''' Why's Angelica getting all yelly?\ |

| 1464 | * Susie claims she can turn the babies into adults. Cue shots of Chuckie digging in his ear, Lil burping, Phil scratching his butt, and Kimi and Tommy making faces at each other. |
| 1465 | !! The Way Things Work |
| 1466 | !! Home Sweet Home |
| 1467 | * For most of the episode, the babies think Kimi is being sent to Japan, so they try to go too. Then, they hear the news that she's not being sent to Japan and start celebrating, leading to this exchange: |
| 1468 | -->'''Kimi''': "What are you doing?" |

When it next returns to the class room the kids are screaming, many are covered in vomit, the curtains have been torn down, chairs flipped over and Angelica is holding out Dil as he punches and kicks at anything that moves. |
| 1531 | ** The only time Dil smiles while with Angelica is when he decides to make the stinkiest poopie of his life, which causes the teacher to scream the doll is "too real" and flee the classroom with the other kids. Angelica can only walk through the carnage like a Vietnam Vet. |

| 1545 | !! Murmur on the Ornery Express |
| 1546 | * On their way to Little Biendeltown, Didi and Kira decide to play a game where they check off famous landmarks on their map as they pass by them.

When they get to Cough Drop Pass, a stone replica of a soothing losenge formed by years of natural erosion, a detective who has come to investigate the robbery of Minka's necklace asks Didi and Kira to follow him so he can ask them questions. When they get to the Love Geysers, twin water spouts that form the shape of a heart every 96 days (and this particular day is when they're going to erupt), they are determined not to miss them, but when Kimi presses some buttons on the engine's control panel, she makes the train go faster and the engine puff out black smoke, which covers up the love geysers as they erupt. |

| 1548 | !! Back to School |
| 1549 | * Didi's ImagineSpot of Tommy being an ungrateful brat at his sixth birthday. Even if it represents Didi's sound concern of not knowing how to be a good mother without Lipschitz' advice, it's just so hilariously out of character to see Tommy [[SpoiledBrat be extremely rude to his own mother]]. |
| 1550 | -->'''Tommy''': This is chocolate-vanilla cake, I wanted ''vanilla-chocolate'' cake! |

| 1581 | -->'''Phil''': "Probably to the zoo. That's where they keep wild aminals." |
| 1582 | -->'''Lil''': "Or maybe they'll send him to another planet!" ''(everyone else gasps)'' "Okay, okay, to the zoo." ''(everyone else but Tommy sighs)'' |

| 1599 | -->'''Kira:''' (''slightly exasperated'') That's the patient's ''mother''. Puppy is in the backyard.\ |
| 1600 | '''Vet:''' Her mother, huh? (''aside, to Fifi'') It'll all [[MommyIssues come back to you, no doubt...]] |
