Franklin Turtle quotes from Franklin

You're a real keener, aren't you?

Franklin

What's a keener?

It means you're enthusiastic. You're eager to get to school and start learning.

Snail

The teacher might want me to count to a kazillion and 46, or ask me to spell chrysanthe... chrysanthe...

Franklin

Chrysanthemum?

How long before he notices?

Franklin

[from inside the turtle household] Fly pie? Thanks, Mom!

Oh, about that long.

Beaver

What took you guys so long?

Franklin

Hey, I'm a turtle, you know.

Franklin

1, 2, 3 on Beaver.

Beaver

Okay, okay. And I thought that lily pad trick would work for sure.

Franklin

1, 2, 3 on Otter.

Good one, Franklin. You found me! But have you found Fox yet?

Do you really think someone will find us?

Franklin

Yes, but we've got to help them help us. [yelling] Dad!

Franklin!

Franklin

If they're looking for us, Fox, we have to let them know where we are. [yelling] Mom!

I'm going to be in big trouble, Franklin. My parents must have told me a million times to stay out of the woods!

Franklin

We're already in big trouble, Fox!

Yay!

My Mom and Dad really aren't so far away.

Franklin

How does your tummy feel now, bear?

Starting to get hungry again.

Hi, Franklin.

Franklin

How'd you know it was me?

Special Mother powers.

Who are you?

Franklin

It's me, Franklinstein.

You're acting you've seen a ghost.

Franklin

Maybe I did at the party. Bear is homesick and if that ghost wasn't Bear.

It must have been a real ghost.

Beaver

I keep telling you, there's no such thing... is there?

Franklin

I won! I won! I won!

Beaver

Yeah? Well, first is the worst and second is the best.

Franklin

Mom! Mom! Mom!

Franklin! Franklin! Franklin! What's the hurry?

Franklin

I'll never be able to ride without training wheels.

Sure you will, Franklin.

Franklin

Never!
