Tasha quotes from The Backyardigans

[to the viewers, portraying as a friendly giant] Yoo-hoo! Hello down there! I'm Tasha the Giant. That means I'm really, really, really... Big!

Captain's diary: trash day. The crew of the spaceship collector is aboard and ready for garbage collecting duty. All hands, take your stations!

Hello and good day to you. I'm Queen Tasha, the rule of everything.

Oh, Queen, nothing can stop me from delivering this message. I hope.

I'll race you to the other side.

I'll beat you to the other side.

Come on.

Oh, for goodness sakes.

See you later.

See you later.

See you next time.

See you.

[singing] 'Please' and 'thank you', that's the secret of the Nile!

[singing] 'Please' and 'thank you' gets you practically anything you want with a smile!

[singing] Even princesses should try to be polite. 'Please' and 'thank you', they're just right, so don't be rude!

[singing] 'Please' and 'thank you' are not things I usually say, but since you insist, I'll start to say them much more often as of today. Who exactly should I say these phrases to?

[singing] How 'bout those three guys who do the work for you?

[singing] Thank you guys for knowing where the special gifts were hid!

[singing] You're welcome!

[singing] And thank you guys for helping me find them like you did!

[singing] You're welcome!

[singing] And thank you guys for doing all that other servant work!

[singing] You're welcome!

[singing] And please forgive me if I acted kind of like a jerk.

[singing] That's okay.

[singing] 'Please' and 'thank you', that's the secret of the Nile, 'please' and 'thank you' get you...

[singing] Practically anything you want with a smile.

Egypt's nice when we all try to be polite. Please' and 'thank you' are just right, 'you're welcome', too!

Ski patrol to the rescue!

[peeking their feet out from a snow pile] HELP! HELP! HELP!

[shocked] Oh, my goodness! Someone's in trouble!

Come on, we've got to rescue them!

Come along! Don't dawdle!

Okay!

We'll be right there!

Empress Tasha, we heard your call for pie, and we came right away.

Yes, today is a very good day for pie. But there is only one problem... I don't know what kind of pie I feel like today.

Well, your majesty, we could do a rhubarb pie, or a pecan pie. We could even do a quiche.

Those are all very fine pies indeed. But today, I wish to have something different. Something unusual. Something special.

Hey, what about the Great Pie?

What did you say?

[hesitantly] Uh, nothing, nothing.

The Great Pie! That's what he said. What a marvelous idea!

The Great Pie?!

All right! [she and Pablo high-five]

Uh, your majesty, did I mention that figs are in season?

No, no, no. It is settled. The Great Pie it shall be!

[enters the backyard, carrying a beaker of blue liquid; to the viewers] Hi, I'm Austin. [gestures to Tasha, who is being a mad scientist] And that's my boss, Mad Scientist Tasha. I help her create stuff in our laboratory. [suddenly remembering something] Oh, and guess what? Today is my birthday! [walks to the table] Hey, Mad Scientist, do you remember what today is?

Of course I do.

You do?! Oh, great!

Today is the day that I make my maddest, craziest, most brilliant creation ever! [laughs like a mad scientist]

Oh... So, what creation is that?

I can't tell you that, it's a secret.

[turns around, noticing that Mummy King Tyrone, Werewolf Uniqua, and Vampire Pablo are out of his sight] Mummy King? Werewolf? Vampire? They're gone! This is the worst birthday ever. [sighs sadly] Well, I guess I better tell the mad scientist that I lost all the monsters. [opens the laboratory door, where it's completely dark] Hello? Mad Scientist? [enters and the door closes] Why is it so dark?

Happy Birthday, Austin!

[gasps in surprise] A birthday party?! For me?! [to Tasha; overjoyed] I can't believe you remembered!

[smiling] Of course I remembered, Austin. How could I forget your birthday?

[happily] I thought this was gonna be a terrible birthday, but it's the best birthday ever!

HOO, HOO! WE ARE MAD! HUKA PELE!

NOW… GO!!!!! [blows Pablo, Tyrone, and Austin out of the volcano with their strong lungs, sending them back down towards the beach]

Those Volcano Sisters sure have powerful lungs.
