Quotes 

• Buzz Lightyear : Not to worry. We're all right here. See, there's Woody, Pricklepants, Trixie, Rex... Wait, where's Potato Head?

  Mr. Pricklepants : And so it begins.

  [Thunder clap] 

  Woody : Pricklepants, you're not helping!

• Trixie : It's been a while. I don't think she's coming back.

  Mr. Pricklepants : Patience. Cinematic structure dictates that it's always darkest...

  Mr. Potato Head : Can it, Pants! Life ain't a movie! They ain't never coming back!

  Rex : Look, they're coming back!

• Mr. Pricklepants : The roadside motel is one of the most common settings for a horror movie. Remote, isolated, ordinary. A quiet environment to alleviate the audience's expectations. I'll be expecting her to ask the inkeeper for the phone any minute now.

  Bonnie's Mom : Can we use your phone? Our car has a flat.

  Mr. Pricklepants : Right on cue.

• Buzz Lightyear : [while watching the movie]  Tactics, Betsy, tactics. Find something to defend yourself with.

  [Betsy grabs a vase] 

  Buzz Lightyear : There you go.

  Mr. Pricklepants : Completely uselsess! Everyone knows a stake through the heart is the only way to defeat a vampire.

• Jessie : Where are you going?

  Mr. Potato Head : We're at a motel. I'm checking out the amenities. You know, the free stuff? Little soaps, shower caps, shampoo, conditioner.

  Mr. Pricklepants : I wouldn't do that if I were you. In horror movies the first to leave is usually the first to get it.

  Woody : Potato Head, don't leave the bag. A motel is one of the easiest places for a toy to get lost.

  Mr. Potato Head : Ah, shut your worry hole. Nobody's getting lost. Besides, I promissed Hamm I'd bring him something nice.

  Jessie : Where are you guys going?

  Trixie : We're gonna see the free stuff.

  Mr. Pricklepants : And if something does happen to the potato, I wouldn't want to miss it.

• Rex : So what happens next?

  Mr. Pricklepants : Usually this is the point of the story where the characters are picked off one by one.

  [He is snatched by an unseen force] 

  Jessie : Uh, where's Pricklepants?

  Rex : Aah! He was right here! What are we going to do? He was the only one who knew what the heck is going oooo...

  [Is snatched] 

• Jessie : Uh, where's Potato Head?

  Woody : Oh, no.

  Mr. Pricklepants : Oh, it appears the monster has returned to claim one last victim.

  Jessie : No, he's not. He's right over there.

  Mr. Potato Head : [to his arm]  Oh, I missed you, baby! We'll never be separated again.

  [the car hits a bump, Mr. Potato Head's parts all fall off] 

  Mr. Potato Head : Aw, nuts.

  [All laugh] 

  Mr. Pricklepants : Group laughter. A sure sign that the worst is behind us.

  Rex : So, it's the end?

  Mr. Pricklepants : Yes. I believe they'd be running the credits just about now.

  [Cut to end credits] 

• Mr. Pricklepants : And now we've reached the threshold. Every horror story has one. Once the heroes cross it, there's no turning back.

  Buzz Lightyear : Rex, over here.

  Rex : Coming!

  Woody : All we need to do is find a way down.

  [Rex trips over the others and they fall down the grate] 

  Woody : Well, that did the trick.

  Rex : Oops! Sorry!

• Mr. Pricklepants : What started out as a simple horror story has become something more of a tragedy.

• Mr. Pricklepants : Only a kitty cat. Classic misdirection.
