Terrence Fleming: Col. Bud Manstrong

Quotes 

• Col. Bud Manstrong : [Touring the Gargantua-1 space station]  When it gets cold like this, I always remember back when I was a paperboy on this station. I musta been about your age - and on a night just like this, one of the crew just suddenly... cracked.

  Hank Venture , Dean Venture : Cool!

  Col. Bud Manstrong : He gathered everyone in the hangar for what he called "movie night." And under the flickering light of Burt Reynolds' "Sharky's Machine," he OPENED the bay doors! Almost the whole crew was there! "Sharky's Machine!" Yup. They say his phantom spirit still roams these corridors.

  Hank Venture , Dean Venture : Phantom Spaceman!

• Col. Bud Manstrong : [as Lt. Baldavitch passes in the hall]  So, how was he?

  Lt. Anna Baldavitch : How was who?

  Col. Bud Manstrong : [Irritated]  Aw, c'mon. I shook his hand; it's all fat and stubby.

  [Motioning his hands near his groin] 

  Col. Bud Manstrong : He must have a large mushroom down there! So... does he have a Smurf living in it or what?

  Lt. Anna Baldavitch : You have no right to be jealous! I gave you every chance in the world.

  Col. Bud Manstrong : I'm not jealous, I'm pissed! We said we would wait...

  Lt. Anna Baldavitch : [Interrupting]  No! You said we would wait... and... I don't have to take this!

  Col. Bud Manstrong : [as an irritated Lt. Baldavitch walks away]  But... you already took it... in the lap... from... not me!
