TV show quotes
The next day at school, Arthur is walking in the halls
Whoa! You look weird!
You look different! You get a new haircut?
[enraged and yells at Binky] No!!
School bell rings. Arthur walks into the classroom.
Hey, Buster, look there! (Pointing at Arthur) Arthur's a four eyes! (Sing-song voice) Arthur's a four eyes! Arthur's a four eyes! Arthur's a four eyes!
[Everybody laughs except Buster and Arthur]
[chides Francine] Some people need glasses to see, Francine. Big whoop!
[In the school cafeteria Buster holds two drinking glasses in front of his eyes]
Hey, look you guys, I'm Arthur!
[Everybody laughs]
Hmm?
[ears droop] Oh.
Arthur gets annoyed and walks out of the cafeteria and past Binky
I know that, this is a new shirt!
Afraid not!
Arthur is walking home covering his face with a coat and arrives at his house, his father is raking leaves with D.W. sitting in them.
[starts crying]
Hmm? Arthur?
Do not talk to me! [slams the door]
[looks at a mirror in his room, takes off his glasses and his reflection becomes blurred.] Well, it was better than being called four eyes. If I lose them, no one can make me wear them. [aputs glasses into their case] I won't even know where they land. [puts glasses into a slingshot, and shoots] Good riddance.
The case with the glasses hits an electric wire, bounces off and land in Arthur's bed room next to Stanley, his teddy bear
[goes up to his room, only to find the glasses on his bed, gasps; groans in frustration] Uggghhh! [furiously takes the glasses and angrily throws them out the window, they land in Mr. Read's pile of leaves.]
Hmm?
[comes into the kitchen looking pleased. The he sees the case with the glasses on the table, gasps]
[has put his glasses on D.W.'s toy hammering bench and guides her hand with the hammer] That's it, D.W..
[giggling, hits with the hammer, but misses the glasses]
What are you doing with your glasses?
D.W. took them, Mom. I was just getting them back.
Well, be careful with these. You didn't need them to get broken.
No, Mom.
[D.W. hits Arthur's fingers with the hammer]
Ow!! [chuckles nervously]
[walks to school the next day with his glasses on, goes behind a tree and comes out with no glasses, chuckles, arrives at school. He and Buster pass Mr. Marco]
Arthur, where are your glasses?
I lost them. At home I think. It's very harder than ever to see without my glasses.
Why didn't you just wear them?
I didn't need them. I know this school at the back of my own hand. Boy's room is the third door from this corner, right?
Yeah, right.
See, why didn't I need them?
See you in class! [walks on]
Arthur passes Mr. Marco who comes out of a door with Mr. Haney
This is why I lock the exams, and...
Oh, well, the examination was better than I thought it would be. Still, in all, I think that we're going to have to go over...
[counts the doors but misses the one the teachers came out of] First door. Second. Third. [walks into girl's room by mistake and sees Francine and Muffy talking to each other]
I said, if I'm not batting cleanup, I'm not playing.
Francine?!
Aah!
What are you doing in here?!
This is the girls' room! Get outta here!
Huh?
The door hits Arthur in the back as Sue Ellen, Jenna and Maria come in. The door is seen from the outside.
Augh! It's a boy! Get him out!
(Everybody hears the screaming and wonders what it is.)
Get me out of there!!
(The girls run out. Arthur slowly follows and finds everybody staring at him in disapproval.)
Augh! (he drops his lunch box) Uh-oh....
[turns on the TV at home] I'm just gonna have to get used to being a four-eyed weirdo...
[Bionic Bunny music plays]
[on TV] I'm Wilbur Rabbit. And this is the story of how we make the Bionic Bunny show! (He is holding up a car in the studio. He lets go and the car stays in place.) Em, what's my next line? (filmmaker puts glasses on his eyes similar to Arthur's so he can read the script)
Wilbur Rabbit wears glasses just like mine? Okay then.
[meets Arthur in the hallway] Old four eyes wass back.
Hi, Francine.
Huh?
I know that. You're wearing glasses.
Yes, I am.
Four-eyes. [laughs]
Binky? Do you know that Wilbur Rabbit wears glasses?
Yes, I saw that on TV last night.
Francine: I didn't see it.
Yeah, wasn't this great how they make him fly?
[In the classroom, Mr. Marco is writing math problems on the blackboard]
Do not ask me to read this problems to you! I have to concentrate.
All right.
[The kids are playing basketball in the gymnasium]
Watch out everyone, Arthur has got the ball!
[Arthur shoots and makes it, everyone cheers. In the classroom Mr. Marco hands back quizzes]
Very good Arthur. All correct.
Arthur. How would you like to play on my basketball team today? [shows Arthur her fake plastic glasses] Don't you like them?
There was no glass.
They're my movie star glasses. Do they make me look beautiful? Wilbur Rabbit wears glasses, you know.
And his are just like mine!
And since then, I always wore glasses. Does that solve your mystery?
Yes, I guess... but it wasn't as good as having a lost brother. [sees a picture of a much younger Jane and David dancing to disco.] And, look. Who's this weird guy with Mom?
This is Dad.
But Dad doesn't have a beard, Arthur. But maybe Mom's divorced. I gotta wake her up now, and demand an explanation!
D.W.! Wait, D.W.! D.W.! [runs after her.]
(Not Again?)
Maybe, you read the list is wrong, Francine. Let me look. You're right. It's Ratburn!
[On the baseball field and soccer field]
OCTOPUS!!!
Octopus! Octopus! Octopus!!!
What the...?!
And?!
And I'm really sorry. It was just a joke!
Not a very funny 1. Now, go to your room.
And don't come out until I say so!
Feel better?
I hope an octopus eats him!
I'm not going!
What? Why?
I don't want to go in the water!
You're not still scared of octopuses, are you? We're going to the lake, D.W. Octopuses live in oceans, not lakes.
I'm not going, and that's that!
Pretend friend. What babies! Arthur's a baby!
Arthur...
Huh?!
Time to get ready for bed.
Arthur...
Don't worry, Dad. I'll work out all their schedules... somehow.
[screams as frogs hop around the bathtub] HELP!!!
D.W.?!
Uh-oh. Oh, no! The ant farm! No, Kate, don't! [Kate cries] Oh, no! Hey, wait! Hey! Where you going?! [steps on the cat's tail and the cat meows]
Huh?
Come here!
Arthur!
Arthur...
Arthur...
