Stanley · Season 3, Episode 11

Mark, Stanley and others in “Stanley's Great Big Book of Adventure”

[Stanley approaches his parents, who are in the kitchen, sitting at the table.]

Mark

Something wrong, Stanley?

Stanley

Lionel took my book!

Mark

Well, just go and ask for it back.

Stanley

He won't give it back! He says he's busy, and I keep annoying him with animals!

Joyce

Why don't you go talking to him about it?

Stanley

He won't listen me! He doesn't even like me!

Joyce

Stanley, you know your bother loves you.

Stanley

No, he doesn't. He doesn't even like being around me. He says I bother him all the time and I always mess things up. Even when I'm trying to help him.

Mark

Stanley...

Stanley

It's true, Dad! He doesn't like animals and he doesn't like me!

Joyce

Listen, Stanley. Brothers argue sometimes, but it doesn't mean they don't like each other, does it?

Stanley

Yes! Maybe. I don't know.

Joyce

Doesn't Lionel do things that annoy you sometimes?

Stanley

Yeah! Like when he takes my book.

Joyce

But that doesn't mean you don't like him anymore, does it?

Stanley

Yeah! ...Well, no.

Joyce

And just because Lionel's annoyed at you, doesn't mean he doesn't like you.

Stanley

I guess.

Mark

Why don't you head back upstairs and try talking to Lionel? I'm sure you two will be able to work it out.
