Quotes 

• [Cindy and Peter are walking home, after school, but they are followed by numerous other school students] 

  Peter Brady : Why are all these kids following us for? They don't walk home this way.

  Cindy Brady : I guess they wanted to watch.

  Peter Brady : Watch what?

  Cindy Brady : The fight.

  Peter Brady : How do they know there might be a fight?

  Cindy Brady : I guess, maybe I mentioned it.

  Peter Brady : Aw, Cindy!

  [they all walk to Buddy Hinton's 'tree' and stop temporarily] 

  Buddy Hinton : Well, if it isn't baby talk and the chicken again. Hey, chicken, let's hear you cackle.

  Peter Brady : Let's not start this again, Buddy.

  Buddy Hinton : I want to hear you cackle, chicken, come on.

  [Buddy Hinton then started making clucking sounds, much like imitating a hen, when laying an egg] 

  Peter Brady : That's dumb. Why not just cut out all the teasing?

  Buddy Hinton : Hey, baby talk. Itty-bitty, itsy-bitsy baby talk.

  Peter Brady : Cut it out.

  Buddy Hinton : What will you do about it?

  Peter Brady : Let's reason. Let's talk about it.

  Buddy Hinton : Shut up or fight!

  Peter Brady : Don't you want to talk about it?

  Buddy Hinton : You heard me! Shut up or fight!

  Peter Brady : Okay, if that's the way you want. I'm ready.

  Buddy Hinton : You asked for it!

  [Peter ducked or avoided Buddy's attempted fist strike and then Peter successfully struck Buddy Hinton to the ground] 

• [Just after Buddy Hinton missed striking Peter and Peter knocked Buddy down to the ground] 

  Peter Brady : Gee, Buddy, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you, really, I didn't.

  Buddy Hinton : You knocked my tooth loose.

  Peter Brady : I did what?

  Buddy Hinton : [lisping]  It's looth. It's looth. Don't you see how it wiggles?

  Cindy Brady : You sure talk funny.

  [Other students quickly start laughing at Buddy Hinton's lisping] 

  Buddy Hinton : It's not funny.

  Cindy Brady : Baby talk, baby talk, it's a wonder you can walk.

  [Other students laugh again again and even harder, forcing Buddy Hinton to quickly get up and runs away from everybody] 

• Mike Brady : Well, Buddy, have you learned anything valuable from this experience?

  Buddy Hinton : I sure have, Mister Brady. Peter's got a good left hook.

  Mike Brady : Yeah, he has.
