E.B quotes from Green Eggs and Ham

E.B.

I have to find those beans. My mom was starting to trust me, and I don’t wanna mess that up.

No beans. We need to get back safely. Your mom finally let me in and... Well, I don’t wanna mess that up.

E.B.

Let you in?

Yeah [stammers] Into the cabin.

E.B.

Wait a minute. You like my mom!

No. No, I don’t.

E.B.

You do! You totally have a crush on her.

Fine! Maybe I got a little one, but she hates me. I really need your help here.

E.B.

[scoffs] And you’ve been using me to get in good with her.

[stammering] It wasn’t even my idea.

E.B.

You are so messed up!

Please don’t blow this for me.

E.B.

Well, if you want my mom to like you, you have to do what I say. I’m the gatekeeper.

[sighs] Fine, you’re the gatekeeper

Michellee

Is this seat taken?

No, no, uh, not at all. I-I mean, you rented this place, so you’re fully within your rights to sit wherever you.. please.

Michellee

You know, I was just thinking. I mean, if you guys wanted, maybe we could all team up and... uh, go to Meepville together?

Um, are you sure?

Michellee

Well, yes. Of course, it’s a practical decision, and there is, after all, safety in numbers. So, what do you say?

Uh, he said, "We’d love to.”

E.B.

(As skye (paw patrol)) (gasping happy) yippee! We’re going to Meepville!

Michellee

Hey! Are you ready to get this show on the road? Because we’re all packed up over here. We’re just a couple of packin’ fools! [chuckling] We’re wacky packers!

[sighs] We can’t go with you.

Michellee

What? But... you can’t why?

It just seems to me that we’d all be safer if we... [inhales] ...if we went to Meepville separately.

Michellee

But I... I thought we agreed. Safety in numbers, am I right? Guy, if something’s wrong, you can tell me.

I’m sorry, but you two should leave right now.

E.B.

I thought we were all gonna go together.

Sam I Am

Uh, change of plans. The four of us are too much fun for one car.

Michellee

I guess that’s it then.

Trust me. We’re all just... We’re all just better off on our own.

E.B.

Hey, Mom. Do you think we’ll ever see Sam and Guy again?

Michellee

Not if I can help it. We don’t need people like that in our lives, E.B. [E.B. sighs and Michellee sighs] That Guy! Said he wanted us to be safe, but you know what I bet? I bet they’re relaxing somewhere, having a really great time, not a care in the world!

E.B.

I bet he really misses his mom. Don't you think?

Sam

I know I would.

Welcome to the Gravy Boat, where we go overboard to serve you. May I take your order, Captains?

E.B.

I'll have the green eggs and ham, please.

Sam

Whoa! Way to go, E.B. They are excellent on a boat. Let it be two orders, matey, and I'll take mine over hard.

Michellee

Honey, we’re going to Meepville!

E.B.

The city that always meeps.

Michellee

So? What do you think?

E.B.

This is so much better than a roller coaster.

Michellee

This is my favorite spot in the whole world.

E.B.

Oh! They’re all so amazing! [gasps] But this one... Oh, my gosh! This one is the beautifulest!

Michellee

[chuckles] That one’s... mine.

E.B.

Yours? Like, you...

Michellee

Painted it. I... painted it.

E.B.

You? You painted that? [spotted her mother’s signature on the painting] but when?

Michellee

[chuckles] Back when you were very little, your dad and I lived here in Meepville, and this is what I did. I was an artist.

E.B.

Why in the world are you counting beans?

Michellee

Well, when your dad passed away, I wanted to make sure that I could take care of you, keep you safe. I wanted a safe job in a safe place, so... we moved to Glurfsburg.

E.B.

I’m sorry.

Michellee

Whatever for?

E.B.

For making you give it up, being an artist.

Michellee

Are you kidding? You’re my greatest work of art.

Michellee

I have to get all these animals out of here.

Let me help.

Michellee

You’ve done more than enough.

E.B.

(While riding on her chickeraffe) MOM!!!

Michellee

And just for the record, I never liked you. I just felt sorry for you.

E.B.

(While riding her chickeraffe) GUY!!!

Yeah, well, I feel sorry for you now, because you are making a huge mistake.

E.B.

Hey, why don't we help with mr jenkins?

Michellee

If that's helping, then...

...Sam did the right thing.

E.B.

(While riding her chickeraffe) And so did Guy. You don’t really hate him, do you, Mom? Tell him how you feel.

Sam I Am

Save yourself! Jump onto that ledge!

Never! I’m not going anywhere without that Chickeraffe!

Michellee

I know it’s hard to let go of something you love. But, sometimes you have to do it, even when it’s scary. You can do this. I know it. You can let go.

Nope! Gimme that! [struggling] He’s mine! Give me... [E.B. puts the friendship bracelet on Snerz] Huh?

E.B.

This is for your own safety.

E.B.

Mom, spill the beans.

Michellee

What? I don’t know.

E.B.

Before she stops singing!

Michellee

I... do like you... a lot.

E.B.

I meant spill the beans.

Michellee

Oh! Oh, I thought you were using it as an expression. Oh, great! Yeah. Now I said that, I don’t even...

I’m glad you did.

Michellee

Oh! There he is.

Sam!

E.B.

Is Mr. Jenkins...?

Sam I Am

Heading home. I would never let anything bad happen to him. But someone didn’t believe me.

Sam, I am so sorry. You were my friend and I should have believed you.

Sam I Am

Mm-hmm.
