Patty quotes from Hey Arnold!

[to Helga] Hey, don't mind me asking, but you and Arnold...Do you have some kind of thing for each other?

Helga

What? No, I mean, are you crazy, give me a break!

I was just asking. He's kind of cute.

Helga

If you like football heads. [the girls exchange smiles]

Harold

Pretty good shot.

Thanks.

Harold

Your eyes are kinda puffy. You been crying?

No, what are you, crazy? I just got something in my eye.

Harold

Well, how come you're not dancing?

How come you're not dancing?

Harold

'Cause I don't like it.

Well, I don't like it either.

Harold

Dance is stupid, anyway.

No kidding.

Harold

I mean, what would be so bad if you didn't have to do with girls?

What's wrong with girls?

Harold

Nothing. I just don't like 'em, okay?

You're just saying that 'cause you're a boy.

Harold

So what if I'm a boy? What's wrong with boys?

Nothing. Except they're stupid.

Harold

I am not stupid! And if you say that again, I'm gonna pound you!

You and what army?

Harold

You know, you really bug me!

I know why you can't dance. You're scared.

Harold

[laughs] That was the best one yet!

Whillikers, Harold, I reckon you beat everyone in the whole dang school.

You are the Champion Arm Wrestler of P.S. 118 — the king.

Harold

That's right, I am the king! [laughs]

I suppose now you'll be signing up for the Citywide Arm-Wrestling Tournament.

Harold

Yeah, why not?

Hello, Harold.

Harold

Oh, uh, hey, Patty.

What's all the excitement?

Harold

Well, it kind of looks like I'm gonna be entering the Citywide Arm-Wrestling Tournament.

You mean the one next Saturday?

Harold

Yep, that's the one.

Harold

What's so funny?

Nothing. It's just that, well, I'm thinking of entering, too.

Well, I'll be danged. An arm-wrestling couple.

Why don't you wrestle each other right now?

Harold

Sure, why not? Heck, I could use the practice.

On three. One, two, three!

Harold got beat.

By Big Patty.

And she's a girl.

What a wuss.

Harold, wait.

Harold

Please, Patty, please — you just got to help me. You gotta let me arm wrestle you in public and beat you. Otherwise, I'll be the laughingstock of P.S. 118, forever and ever and ever.

I won't let you beat me at arm wrestling, Harold.

Harold

How about thumb wrestling?

I do not think so.

Harold

Oh, come on, Patty, you got to do this for me, because we're friends. And if you don't, Sid and Stinky wouldn't have left me alone. They'd keep bugging me, and calling me names, and giving me lipstick, and my life will be over! [sobs loudly]

Harold, get off the ground, and stop crying. It's pathetic.

Harold

[stops sobbing] Okay. I'm sorry.

Look, Harold, if you really want me to help you, then I guess I will, but not by letting you win. I'll help you by showing you my techniques, and then if you are lucky, you just might learn a thing or two, and maybe you'll even be able to beat me in the tournament.

Harold

Oh, thank you, thank you, Patty, thank you! You're the greatest! You're the best friend a guy ever had!

Please, calm down, Harold.

Harold

I guess this is it.

Yup.

Harold

Well! Good luck, Patty, and may the best man, or girl, win.

You mean that, Harold?

Harold

Uh-huh. I was thinking about what you've said, and... Well! You're right— it doesn't matter if I'd lose to a girl, especially as good an arm wrestler and as good a friend as you, Patty.

Thanks, Harold.

Harold

No problem. Now, look out, because I'm going to give you my best game.

I'll look forward to it, Harold.

Harold

So what if I'd lost to a girl?! Patty is the Best Arm Wrestler in the whole city, and she's my friend. I'm proud to lose to her. And if anyone has a problem with that, I'll pound them!

Oh...

Harold

Come on, Patty. What do you say you and me get out here? Maybe we can go see that Shy Stallion movie.

I like that, Harold.
