TV show quotes
[After seeing Wiley run past with Molly's leprechaun doll on his back.]
If he is a leprechaun, he's probably headed for his pot of gold! Come on!
[calling from inside] Piggley! It's time for supper!
Aaaahhh, no! It's always suppertime at the wrong time!
[reading from Elly's book about leprechauns] "Leprechauns are excellent shoemakers, but they only make one shoe, never a pair." Hmm. "When he's finished with his work, the leprechaun always makes a delicious feast. He can sometimes be seen riding a dog or a sheep. All leprechauns--"
[Piggley remembers seeing Molly's doll riding on Wiley.]
[gasps] AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! He rides a sheep?! Jakers! That doll is a real leprechaun!
Good morning, flock. Yesterday's run was a stunning success. You should've been there. And of course, you weren't. And I know why. Motivation. You need a reason to run. And what could that reason be? Simple. A prize.
[Wiley's flock bleats excitedly.]
That's right. First sheep to finish the annual Wiley Cross-Country Sheep Race wins... a prize.
[Wiley's flock bleats with excitement again, then starts racing, running over Wiley in the process.]
Now that's... motivation. Motivation... and pain.
[After the sheep have finished their race...]
What a race, what a race! The wind in our wool, the sound of thundering hooves, a chicken on my back... Okay, the chicken was a little weird, but the rest was great!
[The flock murmurs in confusion.]
Uh, oh yeah, yeah, the winner of the race, right, right. Uh... [clears throat] It is with great sheeply pleasure that I declare the winner is none other than Fluffy!
[The flock bleats excitedly.]
And his prize is... a deep sense of pride in knowing he's done his very best. Congratulations, Fluffy!
[The flock all bleat in confusion, then all approach Wiley.]
Uh, I'm sensing a modicum of disappointment here. Look. I'm a farm animal. What'd you expect, a burger and fries? Oh, I see. Uh, great, great, you want another race. A rematch. Okay, perfect. Work those legs and breathe that air. You're too close! You're too close!
[The children are singing as they pretend to be dragon-hunting knights.]
We brave knights be huntin' for dragons.
With fiery breath and spiny backs.
We'll trounce them all and fix their wagons...
Or... they will have us all for snacks! [echoing]
[Leaving Dannan in charge of the egg.]
Uh, Piggley, do you think the baby dragon might really eat Dannan?
No. They only eat princesses.
Oh. [Molly peeks over the gate] Piggley, where are we gonna find a princess?
I'm a princess. Someday, I'll be the queen.
[bluntly] You're a goner.
[Thinking Dannan was eaten by the "dragon".]
[singing sadly] Poor old Dannan is no more... The dragon gave a mighty roar... He swallowed Dannan whole today... Our friend Dannan's gone... away...
[talking to another sheep] I tell you, I gave that egg the best minute of my life. [after a beat, he starts crying] Oh, where's my little honker? Where's my little oval? [blows his nose in the other sheep's wool] Where are you now, Eggy?
What's all the commotion, then?
Piggley has let a turkey loose in the kitchen.
It's not a turkey! I'd never bring a turkey into the house!
You're right, Piggley. It's not a turkey.
Well, then, what is it?
It's a dragon!
It's a cygnet. A cygnet is a baby swan.
A baby swan?!
Hey, Piggley Dink. I'll swap you some of that licorice... for nothin'!
Ladies and gentlemen, don't be fooled. That ordinary barn across the way may not be so ordinary after all. It could just be the secret laboratory of... a mad scientist!
Now going to bed late and getting a good night's sleep after a mad scientist episode was always a bit of a challenge. And even though we knew it was all just pretend, it could sometimes cause our imaginations to get the better of us.
The imagination is a wonderful, fascinating, terrifying thing, so it is. It can make mountains out of mountains, and monsters out of... just about anything.
[pretending to be a monster] Ferny, come out! I want your brain! Must... have... brain! [roars] Give me... BRAIN!!! [roars]
I'm so sorry, monster, but I'm afraid I can't let you have Fernando's brain. You see, he uses it himself sometimes.
