Funny / Casper

• If there ever was any doubt that Carrigan's father hated her, the last charity we learn he donated to is the "Dyslexic Dalmatians Foundation". That's right, he rather left some of his money to something as blatantly false as an organisation claiming to help dogs with reading disabilities, than leaving it to her.
• The awkward expression on Dr. Harvey’s face when he screams after Casper offers to shake his hand.
• The Ghostly Trio scare Dr. Harvey upon their first meeting, though this can also count as terrifying:
  Stretch: [dueling with Harvey] Who do you think you are, defilin' our domicile?!
  Dr. Harvey: [parrying with every word] Doctor! James! Harvey! Your! Therapist!
  • The Trio, channeling the Three Musketeers, draw swords on Harvey and slash the belt off his pants.
    The Trio: [all together] ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL!
    Stretch: Catch yer pants before they fall!
  • When the Trio are scaring Dr. Harvey, he manages to fend off Stretch and Fatso, but when he reaches Stinkie, the ghost is at a sudden loss of what to do so he just breathes his foul breath on him.
  • After Dr. Harvey briefly defeats the Trio by sucking them into a vacuum cleaner, he blows at the nozzle as if it was a smoking gun.
• Dan Aykroyd in full gear stumbles out of Whipstaff. "Who You Gonna Call?...someone else." *runs*
• Casper follows Kat to school. After her classmates give her a hard time, Casper pays them all back by tying their shoelaces together. When the end-of-class bell rings, they all trip and fall to the floor in unison.
• "Uh... boo?" [loud screaming]
• The Up and At 'Em Machine, especially with Carrigan and Dibs.
  Casper: Well?
  Kat: What was that?
  Casper: The Up and At 'Em Machine. My dad was a great inventor, but he had a little trouble getting going in the morning.
  Kat: Didn't he ever hear of caffeine?
• The Ghostly Trio use Casper as an accordion, then fling him to the moon.
  Trio: [singing] Shine on / Shine on harvest moon / Up in the sky... [ka-FLING] Bah-BYYYYYYEEE!!!!
• "It's my party and I'll die if I want to!"
• Kat and Stretch exchanging insults across the table. When Dr. Harvey tries to urge her off to school, she can't help but make one last parting remark.
  Kat: [pissed] Drop dead!
  Stretch: TOO LATE!
• As scary as the Ghostly Trio looked when they scared Dr. Harvey, you can't help but find it funny.
• Dr. Harvey looking at himself in a mirror, possessed/shapeshifting into different celebs, from Clint Eastwood ("I'm gonna kill you...your mama...and all her bridge-playing friends"), Rodney Dangerfield ("I got a face lift; there was one just like it underneath!"), Mel Gibson (Mel/James just admires his reflection), and the Crypt Keeper, who does the famous Home Alone scream.
• The scene where Carrigan attempts to murder Dibs in order to test the Lazarus machine is darkly hilarious.
  Carrigan: [after Dibs smashes her windshield as she attempted to run him over] Dibs, you're taking this way too personally!
• Carrigan's scream as she plummets off the cliff.
  • Then after, Dibs dryly laments that she still had his favorite sunglasses.
• Old lady on TV ^note from a Casper short, no less: "A g-g-g-ghooost!"
• Upon finding Stretch, Fatso, and Stinkie's beds:
  Kat: Man, they had cruel parents. Wonder where Doc and Dopey sleep.
• Amber and Vic attempt to perform a Totem Pole Trench on Kat as a prank at the dance. Suddenly, the Ghostly Trio pop out of the mirror and terrify them. The sudden appearance of Stretch's head and the Evil Laugh nails it, as does Amber and Vic running into a string of lights and falling over, with Vic dragging a screaming Amber out of the room.
• Carrigan causing Dibs to accidentally hit his head when they first enter Casper's father's lab.
• This exchange:
  Casper: What's this Vic guy got that I don't, huh?
  Kat: A pulse?
  Casper: Big fleshy deal!
• And this one...
  Amelia: It's just for tonight. Sort of a Cinderella deal.
  Casper: So I have until midnight?
  Amelia: (smirking) Ten.
  Casper: Hey, Cinderella got until midnight.
  Amelia: (smiles) Cinderella wasn't twelve years old.
• Casper hurries Kat towards an ordinary-looking wall and her grammar breaks down while trying to convey the logistical problems with this. "Casper, no! Wall? Human?!"
• This exchange by Stretch and Casper when he asks the latter why he served breakfast to Kat and her Dad before Casper’s uncles
  Stretch: Casper! How dare you serve these air-sucking intruders before us?!
  Casper: I was just-
  Stretch: Give me… MY… MEEEAAAAL!
  [He yells so loudly that he sends Casper into a drawer]
  Casper [comes out of the drawer with the food]: Okay, okay.
