  • Fred : Are you ok.

    Johnny Five : Functioning 100%. Perfectly ko Derf.

    Fred : It's Fred.

    Johnny Five : That's what I said, Derf.

  • Fred : Benny? You're leaving me with my back to the wall here. I mean, we gotta come up with something!

    Ben Jarhvi : It is not possible. We are the type of people who have everything in our favor going against us.

  • Ben Jarhvi : Oh, now, now we are un-employers.

    Fred : Oh, look, we still got all of the robot parts in the van; I can get a new staff together...

    Ben Jarhvi : But we are having no more money and now we are having no equipment. To assemble the robots with our naked hands, it would be slower than - than moles' asses in January.

  • Fred : I'm SORRY I tried to sell your god damned robot. Okay? It was a dirty trick. I'm a jerk. I'm a sleaze-ball.

    Ben Jarhvi : You are getting warmer.

    Fred : It's just that when you OWE as much money as I do, it kind of puts you under pressure. You know?

    Ben Jarhvi : And who would be foolish enough to loan money to you?

    Fred : [groans]  Don't rub it in. I had to go to a shark.

    Ben Jarhvi : Oh, dearie! Now you're expecting me to believe that you borrowed money from a fish!

    Fred : No, no. A Loan Shark. It's somebody, if you don't pay them back right away, they start removing popular parts of your anatomy.

  • Fred : I thought you said this thing mis-functioned on you.

    Ben Jarhvi : Oh, that is a falsity. What actually happened was we were working on him one day and suddenly he is struck by lightning. And, from this moment on, he's having a mind of his own. So, the government tried to destroy him so he ran away. So, now he's living with my friend in Montana, in a cabin, in the woods, in... cognito.

  • Fred : You just fall off the banana boat, or what?

    Ben Jarhvi : I do not travel with bananas, sir!

  • Johnny Five : Frederick, I have an important question. Why do humans not like me, call me "craphead"?

    Fred : They like you. They like you. Craphead is a compliment.

    Johnny Five : Oh...

  • Ben Jarhvi : [is locked in a freezer with Fred and reading fortune cookies]  "The warmth in your heart makes others ha-ha-happy".

    Fred : I still like this one

    [reads the one in his hand] 

    Fred : "Opportunity is waiting, you need but to open the door".

  • Fred : We gotta go! You see those two guys over there?

    [points towards two advancing policemen] 

    Fred : They want to take your books away!

    Johnny Five : [horrified gasp] 

  • Fred : [burning himself with a soldering iron]  Jesus!

    Johnny Five : Christ, lived from 1 to 33 AD.

  • Johnny Five : Am not human, but am a life-form, have soul. But him me killed to try.

    Fred : Hey wait a minute J5, what do you think you're gonna do?

    Johnny Five : Pursue! Capture! Incarcerate!

    Fred : Come on now man, these are serious guys! You're not in top form, and your backup battery is all used up!

    Johnny Five : I'm okay-kay, just a few biddly-biddly Bugs Bunny to work out in out in! Perfectly functionality, functionality!

    Fred : Oh yeah sure, listen to yourself, you can't even talk straight!

    Johnny Five : Derf, a life-form's gotta do what a life-form's gotta do. Stand aside.

  • Fred : You like McNuggets?

    Ben Jarhvi : Who is he?

    Fred : Trust me.

  • Johnny Five : Fred wants to sell ME?'!

    Fred : [laughs]  Oh, J-5, c'mon, it's just a figure of speech.

    Johnny Five : Am not property, Frederick! One whose person is under control of another as master, is a SLAVE!

    Robotic Company Executive : That's all we need: A robot who's into equal rights.

  • Manic Mike : [Seeing a battle-clad Johnny charging out of his locked store]  Hey! How did you get in there?

    Fred : [Running after Johnny]  Hey, life form! Cool it!

    Manic Mike : What is that? How much you want for it?

  • Fred : [Trying to repair Johnny before his battery fails]  I'm no good at this!

    Johnny Five : Fifteen minutes, you have, to get good.

    Fred : Fifteen minutes?

    Johnny Five : Plenty of time... time... in a sort of runic rhyme...

    Fred : [Waving his hand in front of Johnny's face]  All right! Don't lose it!
