Melanie Kohn: Lucy Van Pelt
Quotes
-
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : Okay gang, I suggest we run this tent in a democratic fashion. The first thing we'll do is elect a tent leader. We'll have to prepare some ballots, and we'll do this democratically. We'll vote to see who's leader - one gal, one vote. However, we can't pass the ballots until we voted to see who's gonna pass the ballots. This will be done very democratically. Let's see... I vote that Lucy prepares the ballots.
Lucy Van Pelt : Wait a minute! You can't vote unless we have ballots!
Marcie : If we can't vote to see who will pass the ballots, how can we have ballots to vote?
Sally Brown : Yeah, who cares?
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : All in favor say "aye". Aye!
Marcie : Aye!
Lucy Van Pelt : No!
Sally Brown : No!
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : It's settled, Lucy will pass the ballots. Okay Lucy, pass the ballots. Everybody mark their choice, either vote for me or against me. That'll be fair.
Lucy Van Pelt : Wait one darned second! How about if we nominate somebody first?
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : Good idea! I nominate me! Any further nominations? If not, the nominations are declared closed. Okay gals, let's vote.
[all four of them do so]
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : Marcie, pick up the votes and tally 'em.
Marcie : Alright, here's the way it went: one vote for Lucy, one vote for Peppermint Patty, one vote for Sally, and one vote for Marcie.
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : Huh, a tie vote. I guess I'll have to decide the casting vote.
Lucy Van Pelt : Huh?
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : The deciding vote is for Peppermint Patty! Peppermint Patty is the leader! I am the leader! It was fair and square!
Sally Brown : [DELETED LINE; oozing sarcasm] Well, I'm *very* happy for you!
Lucy Van Pelt : Boy, some vote!

[the kids take a wrong turn to a channel and see a sign: "Danger, Blasting on Tuesdays and Thursdays"]
Charlie Brown : That's funny. Did you see that sign?
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : Hey, Chuck, did you see that sign? What day is this?
Charlie Brown : That's right, today is Tuesday!
[the kids pass by a group of bulldozers and tractors and see another sign: "Danger, Blasting on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 10 am"]
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : Chuck, did you see that sign? What time is it, Chuck?
Charlie Brown : [checks his watch] It's almost...
[a huge explosion occurs and a bunch of rocks fall on the screaming kids as the channel goes wavy separating the kids from Snoopy and Woodstock]
Charlie Brown : ...10 AM!
[the rocks stop falling and the channel goes calm again]
Patricia "Peppermint Patty" Reichardt : [angrily points at Charlie Brown] Okay, Chuck! *Another* fine mess you've gotten us into! Look at that! The channel is all blocked!
Lucy Van Pelt : Yeah, just like his head!
[Charlie Brown nervously blushes]
