Excuse me, I'm on the phone.
ARTHUR READ! Didn't you tell everyone I looked like a marshmallow?!
Um...
[to Arthur] Yeah, didn't you remember? When she was wearing that goofy sweater. [to Francine] So, what do you need to do about?
You better apologize or...
[to Francine] Or what?
[points at Arthur] Or you're gonna get it!
TMs. Turner
5:00.
[after Arthur and Francine get locked in the library, they bump into each others' backs.]
AFArthur and Francine
[both screams] [to each other] YOU!!
Arthur, why didn't you tell me what time it is? You got us locked in.
[pointing to himself] Me? [pointing to Francine] Why didn't you say what time it is?
[pointing to Arthur] I'm not your mother, Arthur Read! I mean, how dumb does a person have to be to get locked in a library? [holds up her arms in a "V" shape position with her hands open and pauses for a few seconds; angrier] Anyways, [puts her arms down] I have no time for childish bickering. I've gotta get out of here. [walks off]
Fine. [walks after Francine]
Fine. And by the way, I'm still not talking to you, and I'm not listening, either. [covers her ears with her hands and bends her elbows and walks forward until she bumps her elbow onto a bookshelf] Ow! [Arthur and Francine gets stacks of books off of the bookshelves and create passageways to escape from the library. Arthur builds a tower full of books while Francine builds a staircase of books.] Oh. [walks to the tower of books and grabs a book from the tower right before Arthur is about to unlock the window]
HEY! [the tower collapses and becomes a mess full of books, causing Arthur to fall] [sarcastically] Thanks, I was almost here.
[completes the staircase of books with the book she last grabbed, walks up the staircase, and unlocks the window, but a fly comes by, and takes 3 attempts to shoo the fly away, but screams and starts falling off the stairs of books] Ow!
[Arthur starts running up the staircase of books, and Francine goes after him also. Arthur starts pulling on the window handles, but nothing works out. Francine then helps him out, puts her foot against the window, then the handles break off, and she and Arthur fall and the staircase of books collapses]
I just remembered something...
About what?
Today is Saturday, which means the library is closed until...
[Francine gasps in horror]
AFArthur and Francine
Monday! [their voices start echoing around the library]
[after Muffy has hung up on Francine]
What did you do?! How can you let her hang up?!
Keep your shirt on. I'm calling my mom. [Francine dials the number of her apartment]
TSTelephone's recording message
To dial out, you must enter the correct user code. Please hang up and try again. To dial out... [Francine gives an annoyed look to the camera]
All right. We're doomed.
You're such a wimp.
And you're a bossy know-it-all, [low tone] marshmallow.
[angrier] This does it, Arthur Read! If I have to spend the weekend here, I'm not spending it with you!
Fine with me! See if I care!
TMs. Tingley
This doesn't look good, Mr. Haney...
It certainly doesn't, Ms. Tingley.
You mean, you think I STOLE THE QUARTERS?!
YOU WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEM, ARTHUR!
TMs. Tingley
You certainly were!
If that money doesn't turn up, I'm afraid that you'll have to serve a day...
TMs. Tingley
Week!
...a week of after school detention starting today!
TMs. Tingley
And no picnic for you tomorrow!
[Buster walks into Mr. Haney's office]
Come in.
Mom, Grandma, what are you guys doing here?
[Buster's mother Bitzi and his grandmother are in Mr. Haney's office about Buster's poor grades]
It's nothing to worry about, dear. [sobs]
[Buster's grandmother comforts her]
[takes out a lollipop and tissue] Really, Mrs. Baxter. It's not as bad as always is serious, very serious, but nothing a little elbow grease - A lot of elbow grease - Can't fix. Hopefully. Sit down, Buster.
[Mr. Ratburn sets a chair in the middle of the office for Buster]
"In 1776, Thomas Jefferson, who would later become the third President of the United States, wrote the Declaration of Independence." [Buster snores. Binky takes off the glasses, which have eyes painted on them. Buster is asleep.] Buster!
Buster, wake up! Your English tutor is here.
[Buster wakes up and finds Arthur at the door]
Oh. [chuckles] It's just you, Arthur.
Well, I'll leave you two to your work.
[she leaves the room]
Hey, Arthur, good plan. You fooled her completely. If we hurry, we can get to the park before the game starts.
We're not going to the park today, Buster.
What?
Get your books. We're gonna study!
STUDY?
JJane
Arthur, my rug.
[Pal ripped rug] Uh-oh. Pal? Pal?
[greets Arthur on her bike while he's walking Pal] Hi, Arthur! [Francine cycles over to Arthur] So that's your new dog?
Yeah, his name is Pal.
[looks down at Pal] He looks more like a Steve.
Steve?
[Pal looks annoyed and starts chewing on his leash]
[teasingly] Can he do anything besides that?
Not yet, but I'm gonna teach him to flip through the air and catch frisbees upside-down. But right now, I'm just house-training him.
Well, you'd better train him quick because my cousin had a dog that they couldn't train, and her parents made the dog go live on a farm!
Really?
[Francine nods. Pal growls and lunges at Francine's front bike tire, and bites it with his teeth]
[yells as her tire deflates] Ugh! Hey!
Pal, sit. [pauses; Pal gets up] No, sit. [D.W. chuckles] Sit. Stay.
DWD.W.
Forget calling him Puddles. How about Lake?
I'll clean it up, Mom.
JJane
[holding a pooper-scooper in one hand and Kate in the other] Then, you'll need this.
DWD.W.
[holding a shovel] No, you'll need this!
Pal was in the living room too!
JJane
What on Earth?!
[Arthur gulps]
My catering schedules! [walks over]
JJane
[holding up a bar of soap covered in dog fur] What's this?! It's the soap from the bathroom!
DWD.W.
You still think he's so smart?
[Pal hiccups bubbles]
He ate the whole living room?
He didn't eat it. Just chewed on it.
My puppy was so much trouble that my mother gave it away while I was at school.
Probably to a farm.
[Arthur gasps and Pal burps up a soap bubble]
[gasps] Stop it right now!!!
