Dialogue[edit]

Tim: [about the baby] Look at him! He wears a suit!
Janice: I know. Isn't it cute? He's like a little man!
Tim: He carries a briefcase! Does no one else think that's... oh, I don't know... a little freaky?
Ted: Well, you carried Lam-Lam around until you were like-
Tim: This is not about Lam-Lam.
[Boss Baby snickers]
Tim: We could share.
Boss Baby: You obviously didn't go to business school.
Boss Baby: (to Jimbo) Put that cookie down! Cookies are for closers.
Eugene: [after Francis Francis turns back into a baby, and is asleep. Clearing his voice and speaking for the first time] This time, we'll raise him right.
Boss Baby: I could be fired! [whimpers]
Tim: [snaps his fingers; condescendingly] Pry like that. [holds up Boss Baby's briefcase] You better start packing!
Boss Baby: [enraged] WHAT?!?! [violently throws Senor Squeaky into Tim's groin]
Tim: [in a high-pitch voice] Ohh!
Tim: You can talk!
Boss Baby: Uhhh... Goo-goo-ga-ga!
Tim: No! You can really talk! I heard you!
Boss Baby: Fine! I can talk. Now let's see if you can listen. Give me a double espresso and see if there's someplace around here with decent sushi, I'd KILL for a spicy tuna roll right about now. [gives Tim some money] Get yourself a little something.
Tim: Who are you?
Boss Baby: Let's just say.. I'm the boss.
Tim: The boss? You're a baby. You wear a diaper.
Boss Baby: So that's how you want to play it, Huh? Let's see. Templeton, Timothy, middle name. [laughs] I'm sorry, Leslie! Mostly C's.
Tim: How do you know all that?
Boss Baby: Can't ride a bike without training wheels? Even bears can ride a bike wihout training wheels, Leslie.
Tim: Mom, Dad! The baby can talk!
B.B.: Oh! Can he now? [turns to Tim on a chair]
Tim: Wait, how did you...
B.B.: Hand over the tape, Timmy, or Lam-Lam gets it, see? [grabs a stapler, Tim watches in horror, to see the baby torturing his toy] What's that, Lam-Lam? Oh, you want a nose ring? Well, it's really not my scene, but who am I to judge? [staples Lam-Lam's nose]
Tim: Eee!
B.B.: And an eyebrow ring. Seems like a little bit too much, Lam-Lam! [staples Lam-Lam's eyebrow]
Tim: [terrified] AHH!
B.B.: How is that going to look in a job interview?
Tim: STOP IT!
B.B.: The tape, Timmy! Or I'm gonna rip, rip, rip, rip, rip, rip, rip, rip...
Tim: NOOOOO! [grabs Lam-Lam and they tug at her] Let go!
B.B.: You let go!
Tim: You let go!
B.B.: Give me the tape!
Tim: Give me Lam-Lam! [gasps in horror, to see Lam-Lam ripped]
B.B.: Whoops! Too far!
[Tim grabs Boss Baby]
Boss Baby: Templeton, Templeton! Let’s be reasonable. We can be reasonable, right? What are you doing?! [Tim throws Boss Baby in a baby jumper and opens the curtains]
Tim: You’ve been asking for this since you got here! [he puts the baby bouncer up on the window]
Boss Baby: We can talk about this over a juice box! [Tim pulls the baby jumper back as a slingshot]
Tim: Time for juice boxes is over!
Boss Baby: No, no, Templeton! You wouldn’t!
Tim: Say bye-bye, baby! You’re fired!
Ted: Tim, what are you doing?
Tim: Nothing.
[Boss Baby look at Ted, and then cries, and Tim lets go of the jumper, and the tape shoots out the window, and it lands on the road, then a car runs over it]
Tim: [horrified] My proof! [Boss Baby grins triumphantly]
Janice: Tim! [takes Boss Baby] Explain yourself!
Ted: Yes, explain yourself!
Tim: It wasn’t me! It was the baby’s fault!
Ted: The baby’s fault?
Tim: It’s true! He can talk! They all can talk! They’re having a meeting! There’s something about puppies! It’s one big baby con-spy-racy!
Janice: Timothy Leslie Templeton! [Boss Baby snickers]
Ted: We are very disappointed in you!
Janice: [corrects Ted] No, we're mad at you!
Ted: Exactly, we're mad at you!
Tim: [heartbroken] Mad?
Ted: You need a time-out!
Janice: [corrects Ted again] You're grounded!
Ted: Yes, grounded.. for 2?
Janice: 3!
Ted: 3... days?
Janice: Weeks!
Ted: Weeks! 3 weeks!
Janice: For 3... EVERS!!!
Tim: Grounded?
Janice: You're gonna stay in this house with your baby brother... until you learn to get along!
Boss Baby: [disappointed] Oh, great.
Tim: My life was perfect until you showed up!
Boss Baby: Oh, believe me, kid. The feeling is mutual. I wish I never met you!
Tim: I WISH YOU NEVER BEEN BORN!
[Boss Baby is shocked by Tim's harsh words. He straightens his tie, and leaves.]
Tim: Where are you going? FINE!!
