Buttercup quotes from The Powerpuff Girls

All right, girls. I think we know what we have to do. Let's give 'em some sugar!

[eagerly] Ooh, ooh, I want the blond! I think he's cute!

Buttercup

Man, you're weird!

NNarrator

And in their day, the Girls even manage to humble...Him.

[In his lair, Him is angrily watching the Powerpuff Girls on TV having saved the day once again]

Buttercup

[on TV] Yeah, it was rough in the beginning, but I paced myself and just wore the monster down.

[on TV] We were just glad to be of service. Good job, girls!

HHim

[mocking Blossom; effeminate voice] "We were just glad to be of service. Good job, girls!" [demonic voice] Blah! Blast the Powerpuff brats! They disgust me! So...effortless! They seem to be unbeatable. [effeminate] All these years, and all the villains have produced nothing! So much time, such little results. [demonic] There must be a way! There must be someone who can knock those brats down to size! [groans and sits down on his chair; effeminate] Oh, boy. [suddenly sees something on the TV and slowly smiles; demonic] Oh, boy...

Buttercup

Hey! Remember when we sped up time and became teenagers and wore makeup and gave up crime-fighting and hung out at the mall and stuff?

[Cut to teenaged valley girl versions of the Girls at the mall]

TBTeen Bubbles

Oh, my gosh! Check it out. She is, like, so wrong in those pants. [blows a bubble from gum]

TBTeen Blossom

Like, yeah, girlfriend. [her cell phone goes off, playing the show's main theme; she drinks a soda as she answers] Hello? [indistinct talking on the other end] Oh, my gosh, we were just talking about you! Where are you?

TBTeen Buttercup

[talking into her own cell phone] Over here.

TBTeen Blossom

Oh... hey. So you going to Todd's tonight?

TBTeen Buttercup

I dunno. I gotta get on the treadmill. I just majorly pigged out on a donut. [sighs] If they only had, like, candy-flavoured salad or something.

[She notices something and gasps. Cut back to the present, where the Girls are looking uneasy]

Buttercup

And then we discovered boys...

[Cut back to the teens]

TBTeen Buttercup

Blossom, look!

[They gaze at teenage counterparts of the Rowdyruff Boys]

TBTeen Butch

[reading a magazine] Wow...

TBTeen Bubbles

[on her phone] Tell me about it. Like, that's what I said. Hang on a sec--

TBTeen Blossom

[nudging her] Bubbles, quick! Look!

[Teen Bubbles drops the phone as Teen Boomer is drinking a soda. All three Girls are positively smitten]

TBTeen Bubbles

[hushed] Oh, we shouldn't talk to them. They're bad.

TBTeen Blossom and Teen Buttercup

[smiling wickedly] I know!

[As Bubbles talks to Boomer, a monster smashes through the dome and attacks screaming patrons while the teens do not notice]

TBTeen Boomer

So... wassup?

TBTeen Bubbles

Oh, um... you know... hangin' out. What's up with you?

TBTeen Boomer

You know... hangin' out.

TBTeen Bubbles

[laughing] For sure.

[As the other Girls talk to their counterparts, a couple of armed robbers open fire and rob a jewelry store as the teens pay no heed]

TBTeen Butch

So wassup, ladies?

TBTeen Brick

You goin' to Todd's tonight?

TBTeen Blossom

Um... I have to study for an algebra test. For my English class.

[Brick looks confused]

TBTeen Blossom

What are you doing?

TBTeen Brick

Uh... going to Todd's.

TBTeen Blossom

[laughing] Oh! What a coincidence.

TBTeen Buttercup

So what are you driving now?

[As they talk, an ATM explodes and two robbers run through a hole in the wall with a wagonload of cash]

TBTeen Butch

Oh, I'm rockin' a new Escalade. Wanna take a ride?

TBTeen Buttercup

Uh, that's okay. We rode the one up from the first level.

TBTeen Butch

Yeah, I just put an MP3 player in it.

TBTeen Buttercup

Oh, cool! I love that game.

[Butch looks confused]

TBTeen Buttercup

How about you, Blossom? Wanna take a ride on Butch's escalator?

TBTeen Blossom

Sure. What floor?

[A flying saucer starts shooting and a large red monster roars. Cut back to the present]

Buttercup

Boy, were we dumb.

Yeah. Let's remember something else.

BLBrian Larsen

[nervously] I'm standing right in front of Mojo Jojo, and he seems to be looking right at me.

[Mojo jumps forward and captures him]

Mojo

Not only do I have a hostage, I have a camera too! Hello!

What are you gonna do with him?

Mojo

Mmm...I might drop him.

You wouldn't dare! [flies forward to rescue him] Gotcha! Stay here, Mr. Man. [rejoins her sisters' fight against Mojo]

BLBrian Larsen

Oh wow, oh wow, oh wow...oh, wow!

[They fight and defeat Mojo, then notice the camera]

Buttercup

Hey, look! We're on camera!

Hi, Professor!

BLBrian Larsen

[to his camera] Whoa! Can you believe that?! I mean, that was so awesome! I-I can't believe it, I mean, this is great! Never in all my days did I think I could get something like that! I-I realize now that it's not about what makes the girls tick; it's about the fact that once again the day is saved, thanks to the Powerpuff Girls! Whoo!

[Bubbles has accidentally heard the Professor yell out a curse word after accidentally burning himself. As Blossom continues reading and Buttercup waits impatiently with another block in hand, Bubbles floats along the balcony to the doorway. A blank expression has not changed.]

Buttercup

Hey, Bubbles. What’s for dinner?

Hey, Bubbles... Bubbles? [Bubbles floats across the room, paying no heed, and stops near Buttercup and the tower of blocks]

Buttercup

Hello? Earth to Bubbles! Dinner? [cut to the coloring book on the floor. Octi hangs into view from above, still held by Bubbles; from offscreen] Bubbles? Bubbles! [Octi is dropped] Oh, I give up.

[The owner of said octopus descends into view and picks up a crayon to start in on her coloring again. She seems rather distracted, however, and the crayon breaks in her hand. Cut to her sisters; she rises from the ground. The curse word is censored by sound effects of Buttercup's block tower collapsing]

[suddenly angry] Stupid [CENSORED] crayon! [this outburst has drawn the attention of the other two in a hurry] That was my favorite color!

[Buttercup lets a block slip from her grasp, while Blossom forgets about her book altogether. Now Bubbles settles happily down to her work as her sisters approach during the next line.]

Well, I guess my unicorn will have to be pink.

Buttercup

What was that you said?

Where did you learn that word?

The Professor. I think it’s pretty.

Buttercup

Yeah. I don’t know what it means, but it sounds cool.

It’s pretty obvious, isn’t it? It’s gotta be an adjective. That’s used to lend emphasis to words, like “great” or “fantastic.” [cut to her sisters; she continues offscreen] I’m guessing it can be used for good and bad things. [Bubbles and Buttercup smile at each other; back to her] Like, you can say “great,” “super-great,” or ”[CENSORED] great.” [more cat yowling from outside, mixed with a dog barking, which censor the word]

Kitty?

Buttercup

[CENSORED] cool!

BBBubbles & Buttercup

[CENSORED], that makes sense.

[CENSORED] trust me. I know what I’m [CENSORED] talking about.

I [CENSORED] love it!

Buttercup

I wanna [CENSORED] try it! Hey, I [CENSORED] did it!

GGirls

[in an instant, they are circling the ceiling light fixture, the whooshing of them flying censoring out their language] We love [CENSORED]! It’s such a great word! We love [CENSORED]! It’s such a great word! [jumping on bed, the springing censoring out their language] We love [CENSORED]! We love [CENSORED]! [they collapse on the mattress in a giggling heap, having no idea of how vulgar they just were]

[After the Girls defeat the toilet-headed monster by stuffing a truck full of soap into his mouth]

That should be a lesson to you, Mr. Monster, that certain words are inappropriate.

Especially for nice girls like us.

[points aside] Now you get a time-out to think about what you've done.

[The monster follows her directions to a patch of land in front of some buildings resembling a corner, grumbling half-heartedly]

Buttercup

Less talking, more [CENSORED] thinking!

[In the end shot, Buttercup is shown sulking, her mouth washed out with soap again]

NNarrator

And "soap" once again the day is saved, thanks to the Pottymou-- err, I mean the Powerpuff Girls!

Look! The bank's being held up by little baby animals! Isn't that sweet?

Watch out, they could be dangerous. I'll take of this! [Flies over to The Fluffy Bunch]

Wait! Buttercup! [Buttercup grabs Cuddly Bunny's arm as she shakes in fear]

Buttercup

Hey! Where do you think you're going with Townsville's money?

Ow! You hurt me! [Puppy Wuppy and Fluffy Kitty cower in fear]

Please! Have mercy!

Oh poor things!

Did you see how she almost tore off his arm?

BMBank Manager

I've never seen such unnecessary brutality in my life!

What a week. We sure have Townsville fooled.

Don't worry. We'll be outta here in no time. [they see a new bank] Whoa! Look! A new bank! Let's hit it!

[They burst in and see children of Pokey Oaks Kindergarten]

LGLittle Girl

Look! Cute fuzzy animals! Let's hug 'em!

[The children charge toward The Fluffy Bunch, who scream as they get crushed by the children]

Ooh. Ow. Yow! Cut it out! Stop! Yow! That's hurt! OW!

OW OW OW. OOH No. OW. Watch the ears! My toe! Ow.

Ugh. Ow. Ugh. Aah! Meow. Ugh Ooh. Uh!

CPChildren of Pokey Oaks Kindergarten

Yay!

FBThe Fluffy Bunch

Well, do you think that was enough punishment for their crimes?

Buttercup

Definitely.

Well, you know what they say, "If you can't beat 'em, love 'em." [they laugh]

Mojo has managed to bring Townsville to a complete standstill by having all of the people speak in the most lengthy of questions and redundant of answers! Thus, nothing can be asked or answered without the verbosity of words causing the city to come to a permanent and most painful halt! Furthermore--

BBBlossom and Buttercup

Bubbles!

Sorry.

This is going well.

Do you think Mojo is really learning his lesson?

Eggs... (Shakes uneasily trying to control himself... until he's unable to contain his rambling) ...Which are generally regular eggs which have been boiled in the hottest of water and then decorated in a vinegar-based dye by placing― (Buttercup punches him) Ow!

Keep it brief, buddy!

[Professor Utonium has been attempting to bake cakes for a Surprise Party for the Powerpuff Girls' Birthday, with the girl's faces drawn on them in frosting. However, it's clear the first attempt at drawing with frosting has gone wrong.]

PProfessor

I knew this would happen! My first attempts always turn out to be disasters!

[At the same time Bubbles flies outside the laboratory door, and accidentally overhears the Professor. Concerned, she listens.]

PProfessor

Blossom is all crusty, Buttercup is hardly perfect, and Bubbles? Ugh! Just horrible! I should probably just make three new ones. I mean, there’s no way they could ever be good enough.

[Bubbles' eyes fill to the brim with tears. Without the context behind his statement, she assumes he's not talking about cakes, but the Girls themselves.]

[In their bedroom, Blossom and Buttercup are having a fun time playing with their toys. Right on cue, the door slams open, startling Blossom and Buttercup. They look as Bubbles screeches...]

(Completely Hysterical and Devastated) HE'S MAKING NEW POWERPUFF GIRLS!!!! [she bawls so hard she can't get a coherent sentence out] THE PROFE-HE SAID BUBBLES-HORRIBLE-AND AND AND DISASTER AND CRUSTY AND MAKING NEW...

[Buttercup slaps her once, trying to knock her back to her senses. It works]

Buttercup

Bubbles, get a grip!

[Bubbles calms down, although she's still quietly crying. Blossom tries to reassure her by calmly working out the situation.]

Now start over. What exactly did the professor say?

I'm trying to tell you! He doesn't want us anymore!

[Beat. Blossom and Buttercup smile, not worried, believing Bubbles didn't hear him correctly.]

(shakes her head) That’s crazy!

Buttercup

Have you been eating your crayons again?

I heard it with my own ears.

[Back in the Lab, the Professor is still harshly criticizing his work.]

PProfessor

Oh, who am I kidding? I can’t decorate cakes. The surprise party will be ruined! Oh, gosh, they’re so ugly. I knew adding that extra ingredient to the concoction was a mistake. If I’d just stuck to the original recipe of sugar and spices… (Sigh.) …well, this time I’m getting it right. This time they’ll really be perfect!

[Little does the Professor know, the girls had been eavesdropping on him, trying to prove that Bubbles was wrong. However, after overhearing and misinterpreting the professor's words, all three look crushed. They believe Bubbles was correct about them being replaced.]

[A little while later, we cut back to the girls room. Sobbing can be heard. Blossom is inconsolable, along with Bubbles, both crying. Buttercup has a look of pure anger on her face, feeling completely betrayed]

(in tears) Bubbles was right. He is making new girls!
