- Dot: [more annoyed] Yeah, yeah. We get it. So can we please get on with it?! [another background setting of the castle drops] Thank you. [they walk up to the front doors of the castle] Maybe whoever lives here must tell us where we are.
- [They're paralyzed as they see the shadow of Taz]

- Yakko: To spell Santa's name is easy to do.
- You write S-A-N-T and another "A", too.
- But no "L", no "L", Santa's name has no "L".
- And he won't be too pleased if you don't learn to spell.
- Wakko: Jack and Jill went up a hill to fetch water from the well,

- Dot: Phew! Am I glad that's over!
- Yakko: Awh. I have a headache this big, and it's got Warner Bros. written all over it.
- Dot: "Produced by..." Gimme a break. Bunch of over-paid, credit-grabbing, do-nothings.
- Yakko: "Written by"? Oh, now, there's a joke. You call the dreck they stick us with writing? Huh. Puhlease.
- Dot: "The Great Stoneeni". Bah. Just once I'd like the guy to write a song in my key. Just once.
- Yakko: Like that would do any good!
- Dot:Oh, yeah, it's all about you. That's right.
- Wakko: A voice director? Who's that?
- Yakko: Oh, you know, she the person who tells you to redo every line like fifty times.
- Dot: Yeah. And faster.

A Very Very Very Very Special Show/Night of the Living Buttons/Soda Jerk [4.04]
[edit]- [Beginning the episode, the Warners ran away from Ralph and they hid behind a wall to catch thier breath as Ralph passes by. That's when they see something]
- Wakko: Hey, guys! Look!
- Warners: Time-out! [ran into an ice cream shop and they sat down on the bar seats]
- Wakko: Oh Mr. Ice Cream Man!
- Yakko: We're here!

- Toby the Ice Cream Man: Coming right up!

- Dot: [as Wakko starts drinking his milkshake] Are you going to drink that in one gulp?
- Wakko: Mmm...Maybe.
- Yakko: Could be more than you can handle.
- Wakko: I'll take that as a challenge. [pushes Dot off of her seat] I've been doing this since I was a kid. [drinks his whole milkshake in one gulp and becomes bloated as he sits down in his seat; to Yakko] Told you!
- [Yakko shrugs while drinking]
From Burbank with Love/Anchors A-Warners/When You're Traveling from Nantucket [4.05]
[edit]- Announcer: And now, Yakko Warner sings about time.
- Yakko: When you're traveling from Nantucket, through Chicago to St. Paul,
- And you're standing at an airport. And you look upon the wall,
- There's a clock for every city and a different time for all from Asia through Malaysia to Peru.
- Did you ever wonder why that when it's 10:00 in Maine, at precisely the same moment, it is 3 AM in Spain?
- When it's breakfast time in Rome, they're having lunch in the Ukraine,
- And it's supper up in upper Kathmandu.
- If the Earth were spinning faster as the sun is going past her,
- Then a day would only be an hour long.
- And school, when they begin it, would only last a minute,
- Before everybody has to run along.
- Wakko and Dot: All right!
- Yakko: If the Earth were the planet that was closest to the sun,
- A year would be much shorter and you'd have a lot of fun.
- 'Cause by the time you were in 1st grade, you'd be over 21.
- And you'd live to be 900, 3 or 4.
- Time is relative, dependent, you can save it,
- You can spend it doing things you like to do or learning how.
- Wakko: You can't see it, you can't taste it.
- Dot: But you certainly can waste it.
- Yakko: Which is really what we're doing here right now!
- The international date line's an imaginary cleft.
- Today is on the right side and tomorrow's on the left.
- So when you cross it, do you then arrive the day before you left?
- That's how it'd work, it's quite berserk, you see.
- So if you were born in China, while I'm born in Carolina,
- Well, then, you're a day ahead of me, you see.
- So the way I've got it reckoned, if we're born in the same second,
- Then why should you be a day older than me?
- But it really is no miracle the difference in our birth.
- Because the world is spherical, that's why around the Earth.
- Warners: There's always different times for Moscow, London, Boston and Ft. Worth.
- Yakko: And that's the way it's always gonna be.
- So remember, when you're traveling from Nantucket to St. Paul,
- nd that airport as you're staring at those clocks upon the wall.
- You should think about this song, my friend, and then you will recall.
- Wakko: That it was mildly amusing.
- Dot: But then totally confusing.
- Warners: And we bet you wish we hadn't sung at all!
Papers for Papa/Amazing Gladiators/Pinky and the Ralph [4.06]

- Yakko: Just west of key east.

- [The plane does a nosedive and then, it stops a few feet in midair]

- [Dot knocks on the door]
- Ernest Hemingway: [falsetto voice] Who is it?

- Ernest Hemingway: [falsetto voice] Mr. Hemingway isn't here right now. This is, um...Alice B. Toklas.
- Warners: [sing-song] No you're not!
- Ernest Hemingway: [falsetto voice] Yes, I am.
- Warners: [appear behind him] No you're not!

- Yakko: You can't fool us. Alice B. Toklas doesn't live here anymore.
- [The scene cuts to Acme Labs]

Pitter Patter of Little Feet/Mindy in Wonderland/Ralph's Wedding [4.08]
[edit]- [Buttons accidentally stepped on Cheshire Cat/Rita's tail]
- Cheshire Cat/Rita: [angrily grabs Buttons by the fur] You stepped on my tail! You've ruined my day! There's no time to argue, for this you will pay! [attacks Buttons in the fight cloud]
- Mindy: [hugging Buttons] Fuzzy bunny good, but fuzzy Buttons better.
- [Buttons sighs happily]
