    [beep] 

    Crow : ing innocent, so

    [beep] 

    Crow : you

    [beep] 

    Crow : ers. And that goes for your bull

    Crow : court system too. Mike, I'm so

    [bleep] 

    Crow : ing sorry I couldn't be there, so take care you

    [beep] 

    Crow : er.

  • Observer : [studying Mike]  His humid, fleshy extensions struggle as he attempts to conquer some simple, seemingly purposeless toy. Already a sense of pity overcomes me, yet I am propelled by my own compassion. Although his biological makeup implies a living thing, I am sure we shall discover him to be an animated piece of refuse or feces; but I must remain impartial even as he mocks everything I hold dear. I hate him. I can only pray that his tiny spinal column conveys no spark of truth, no splinter of the horrible reality that is his own soul. My god, I pray for his death and to all things that love rightness and decency...

  • Pearl Forrester : Quiet, you fool. I found the ancient family diary of the Forrester clan. It's fascinating. Ancient numbers for ancient bookies. Topaz Wallingford Thiesenstein Forrester really knew how to play the ponies. And here, 1,000 year old malt liquor labels. And an antediluvian form of chicken-in-a-biscuit called Her Majesty's Fool's Hen Cracklebread. What a rich and marvelous past. What's this? Apparently, my ancestors have always been involved in odd experiments. Amethyst Rogento Forrester trapped a man in a cave and pushed in bad paintings of the hunt. Emerald Montgomery Forrester trapped a man on an island and forced him to read poorly done parchments and... and, could this be... Adventerine Sowbodaford Forrester trapped a man in a tree and told him really bad sagas... it's incredible. I have a feeling I'm on to something here, Nelson... some power, some force beyond my control. And it doesn't look good for you. Ha ha ha ha.

    Observer : I think you're getting off the point just a tad, you might want...

    Pearl Forrester : Cower, world. Tremble, world. Run and mule and puke in terror, world. Ready. Haaarch.

  • Adam : How did you know I was here?

    Woman : I saw the flash light.

    Crow : Plus you were crashing around like a drunk elephant.

  • Adam : You think this is all there is to America? Apple pie and all that jazz?

    Crow : And hula-hoops and dungarees?

    Adam : Well it's my job to keep the apple on the table and no-one questions how I do it.

    Mike Nelson : I'll just need an hour to figure out your metaphor.

  • Crow : Nihassi told me I look like a walrus.

  • Dr. Darwin : A blank brain.

    Crow : [brainwashed]  Hooray for socks.

  • Crow : [during a song number]  Heck, when they said amateur night they weren't kidding.

  • Crow : My hair challenges yours to a fight!

  • Crow : I'm Sheriff Pink.

  • Crow : I throw my doll at you!

  • Mike Nelson : [looking in book]  So these are the catch-phrases I can choose from?

    Crow : Yep. Oh, here's a good one! "Kiss off, slappy!"

    Mike Nelson : Nah, that's not really me. Oh, here's one that oughta get the kids going! "We're all out of toner!"

    [pause] 

    Mike Nelson : [slightly unsure]  Uh, "Don't run on my wet floor?"

    [pause] 

    Mike Nelson : [very unsure now]  "Secretary... please read off the m-minutes from... "

    Crow : Oh, geez...

    Tom Servo : Pathetic! Mike, knock it off!

    Mike Nelson : Oh, Pearl's calling!

    Tom Servo : I said, cut it out, Mike!

    Mike Nelson : No, see, she is! See?

    Tom Servo : Oh, yeah, sorry!

  • Tom Servo : Hi, everyone, kind of a tough moment. We just tapped into earth's geneology records and discovered the cause of this simian holocaust. You see, virtually every single one of Mike's decendants married apes!

    Mike Nelson : Come on, all my grandkids?

    Crow : Yep.

    Mike Nelson : What about great grandchildren?

    Crow : Checking... yes! Francis Nelson married a macaque, otherwise they all married great apes.

    Tom Servo : You can see why he's upset folks.

    Crow : Thomas Ryan Nelson married a slow lorus. Kevin R.W. Nelson, probably a great great grandchild, who married a ruffed lemur... Yep! Your family liked its monkeys Mike!

    Mike Nelson : Thomas Ryan Nelson married a slow lorus. Kevin R.W. Nelson, probably a great great grandchild, who married a ruffed lemur... Yep! Your family liked its monkeys Mike!

    Crow : Oh it was quite unusual... hey hey hey hey, here's a Wilburt H. Nelson who married a Sara Thompson of Oak Park Illinois. Uh Ohhh... seems he kept an aye aye in an apartment downtown. Ha hoo hoo, this is not pretty stuff. Here's a W.D. Nelson who married eight times... silverbacked gorilla, one two and three, then he picked up a penchant for a bonobo and married those four times before wedding a japanese snow monkey on a day before...

    Mike Nelson : OK, OK Crow, I think everyones heard enough. I think we all get the point.

    Crow : Mike I think I speak for all of us when I say... GOOD ONE NELSON!

    Tom Servo : I'm locking up my sock monkey, I'll give you that much for free.

  • Crow : Old guy, there's another old guy to see you.

  • [Mike appears in the theater after trying to strangle Bobo] 

    Crow : Mike, why were you choking the monkey?

    Mike Nelson : Because I... hey.

  • Observer : I'm not THAT omnipotent.

  • Crow : Oh, Gypsy, we're giving you a shower.

    Tom Servo : Oh, look, she's surprised. Isn't that darling?

    Gypsy : Well, I'm not getting married. Am I pregnant?

  • Crow : Does just walking through it make you want to kill yourself? Then it's a HIGH SCHOOL.

  • Crow : She undercut the subtle nuance of my wiener joke.

  • Crow : Ooo. I bet that would taste great with drawn butter. Of course, I'd eat my own HEAD with drawn butter.

  • Crow : The ONLY end, my friend.

    Mike Nelson : Ya, and the children are all insane, right?

  • Crow : They withheld all the interesting people 'till the end of the movie...

  • Crow : Five hours of staring at a window finally pays off.

  • Crow : Well, I suppose I could just eat the boat and spit them out.

  • Crow : So, the only effect of his complete immolation is... minor irritation and redness?

  • Crow : White Beer, there's a trailer park of taste in every bottle.

  • Crow : I felt a disturbance, like a million monkeys cried out at once, then all were silenced. The world... is no more.

    [the lights and sirens go off] 

    Tom Servo : And even worse... WE'VE GOT MOVIE SIGNS!

  • Crow : Oh great, the nutty birdman from apartment 4B is going to give us a religious insight.

  • [a character tells someone to set a device on "nuclear"] 

    Crow : Oh great, what was it on before? 'Defrost'?

  • Mike Nelson : Hi, folks. Mike Nelson here. Crow and Servo are about to help me with the annual Satellite of Love safety check. You guys ready?

    Tom Servo : Empty.

    Crow : Shot it off in your face. Next.

    Mike Nelson : Okay. Flare gun?

    Tom Servo : Did it.

    Crow : Shot it off in your face. Next.

    Mike Nelson : First aid kit?

    Tom Servo : Used it to treat your flare burns.

    Mike Nelson : Right. Parachute?

    Crow : Gym class.

    Mike Nelson : Life vest?

    Tom Servo : Faulty.

    Mike Nelson : Ham radio?

    Crow : Mistook it for an actual ham.

    Mike Nelson : There, the Satellite of Love is completely unsafe. Hey, does anything work?

    Tom Servo : Yeah, the toaster over. We used it to bake the ham radio. Mmmm.

    Mike Nelson : Oh, OK, well then. We're dead. We'll be right back

    Crow : Come on, Mike, we're gonna go stick our heads in the towel dispenser.

    Tom Servo : Weeee.

  • Scientist in movie : Oh no...

    Crow : The thing we're looking for is COMING, oh no...

  • Crow : So, anyway, guys, who did they think this movie would appeal to? Elderly squirrels?

    Tom Servo : People without heads?

    Mike Nelson : Used napkins?

    Crow : Italians?

    Mike Nelson : Crow. That's getting off the point.

    Crow : You're right. Uhh... Germans?

  • Crow : That was an official thing I just did.

  • Crow : My breasts led me here.

  • Crow : Tolkien couldn't follow this plot.

  • Peg : Oh, Liz, everyone isn't as slow as you and Andy.

    Crow : Besides, you're a Romulan.

  • Crow : Here's two bucks baby, cause that's all you're worth.

  • Tom Servo : So what if your clone is a hard-drinking, hard-living clone?

    Crow : We need your liver to keep your CLONE alive.

  • Crow : I seem to have died, is that a problem?

  • [during the opening credits] 

    Crow : I'm not even going to watch this credit, I'm just going to look away until it's gone.

  • Crow : You've got monster.

  • Crow : Here comes Mike, destroyer of worlds.

    Tom Servo : O god of fire and vengeance, stay away from me.

  • Crow : This is how I go fishing guys, with a flash light and a flamethrower.
