- Ghost: HEY!
- Brak: WHAT?

Monkey Trouble
[edit]- Space Ghost: Sliced or cubed...
- Zorak: Solid or spreadable...

- Zorak: Cheese is edible!
Love That Brak!
[edit]- Space Ghost: And now, here's a Nugget of Joy from Zorak.
- Zorak: Yes... All right. Once there was a very nice green mantis whose name was... Uh... His name is not really important. So, anyways, one day while Space... While somebody was taking a nap, this mantis borrowed the Phantom Cruiser and took it for a little spin. I... uh... He was making a loop around the Crab Nebula, also known as Dead Man's Curve, when this stinkin' salvage vehicle comes out of nowhere, and blindsides me! Uh, him. No turn signal, nothin'! Sheesh!
- Space Ghost: Hold it! Did you swipe the Phantom Cruiser during my nappy time?
- Zorak: Swiped?! I borrowed it. I was bringing it back.
- Space Ghost: And you cracked it up?!
- Zorak: Cracked it up? No... I wouldn't say that. It's more like... I demolished it.
- Space Ghost: NO!
- Zorak: Hey, you got spacecraft insurance, right?
- Space Ghost: Yeah! And you've got explosion insurance, right?
- Zorak: Uh, hang on, I'll check my coverage-- [screams as Space Ghost blows him up; coughs] Touchy.
- Brak: One time I had this teacher who didn't like me so I wrote a note with little hearts and flowers on it and it said "Even though you think I'm stupid, I still love you." But that didn't help, so I made a statue of the teacher outta cheese, with a ribbon around it, and I said "This is for you. Can I get extra credit?" But she just, y'know, kinda just shook her head "no". [sigh] I guess there's just no pleasin' some people. The end.
My Space Ghost the Car
[edit]- Brak: Hello, everybody! Today on Cooking with Brak we'll be preparing Hot Dog tortellini, or as I like to call it, tortel-weenie! To prepare tortel-weenie you'll need sixteen sacks of unbleached flour, three dozen eggs, five pounds of butter, three hundred cocktail weenies, ten quarts of pickle relish, a bag o' snails, and a stomach pump. Now let's get started, shall we?
- Space Ghost: Zorak, you are in my power! You are in my power! You are in my complete control. You cannot resist me! You will do everything I say.
The Night the Lights Went Out on Cartoon Planet
[edit]- Brak: Then the telephone rang again and the operator said 'the last call came from your house!' Oh dun-dun-dun-dun, and I said 'Somebody's in the house, oh no!' Dun-dun-dun, and the operator said 'Oh I'm sorry I was looking at your number. The last call actually came from the old crazy house down the road', and I said 'oh that's just crazy John' and I wondered what he wanted, dun-dun-dun.
- Zorak: Attention Libra: I'm sorry to report that in the next few months you'll notice a large growth on your neck--it's your head! Mwu-ha-ha! So don't pick at it, it will just get worse. Mwu-ha-ha! Does your head hurt--cause it's killing me! I love this job.
Goin' Ape
[edit]- Brak: Hello, everybody! Today on "Cooking with Brak", we'll be preparing one of my favorite recipes...
- Space Ghost: The cooking segment is canceled.
- Brak: What, again?! Why?!
- Space Ghost: Remember that last little treat you conjured up?
- Brak: You mean, Brak's Pork Tartar with Hailbut Gravy Surf 'n' Turf Combo Platter?
- Space Ghost: Right. And you remember all that messy business with the board of health?
- Brak: Those board of health guys wouldn't know creative cuisine if it bit 'em!
- Space Ghost: It did bite 'em. That's why they threw the producer and the GM in jail for reckless endangerment. Executive-type guys don't go much for them little adventures.
- Brak: Hey, what's the big deal? So a few people got a tummyache.
- Space Ghost: Tummyache?! The whole crew lost all feeling in their arms and legs!
- Brak: Well, they're all moving around pretty good now! Except for that Garber guy.
- Zorak: Poor Garber. Sheeze, tough break.
- Brak: How was I supposed to know he was allergic to cats?
- Zorak: I think you're supposed to cook the pork.
- Brak: Now you tell me!
Momma!
[edit]- Brak: I remember when this one time, I was at school, and I accidentally went into the girls bathroom, and this girl yelled, "Hey! What are you doing in here?" and I said "Well, what are you doing in here?" and she said "This is the girls bathroom mister tiki head, and what I'm doing in here is none of your business." So I said "Oops, sorry." Then I ran out of the girls bathroom into the boys bathroom, and this guy said "Hey! What are you doing in here?" and I said "Oh no, wrong again."
- Zorak: Why do fools fall in love? BRAK!
- Brak: Because they are hungry?
- Zorak: WRONG!
- Brak: Because they like baseball?
- Zorak: WRONG!
- Brak: My toe?
- Zorak: WRONG! Space Ghost...WRONG! Moltar. Oh, wrong show. Brak.
- Brak: You're my friend.
- Zorak: WRONG!
Where's the Beach?
[edit]- Space Ghost: Growing in the garden...
- Zorak: Like a bomb about to blow...
- Space Ghost: The onion is a vegetable...
- Zorak: Onions make me go!
- Space Ghost: Try them on a chili dog...
- Zorak: Fry them with bananas...
- Space Ghost: Eat them in your bed at night...
- Zorak: Wearing your pajamas!
- Zorak: Today is pisces. Learn to live life to the fullest. Start with a big breakfast. But, hey, nobody lives forever, stop with the fiber already! Oh, and I see good financial news in your future - in about thirty or forty years!
Deadly Blasts of Hot Air
[edit]- Space Ghost: [to Zorak] I don't want to hear another peep out of you unless it's uplifting and positive for the youth of America!
- Zorak: Hey, Space Ghost, do you like your job?
- Space Ghost: Why do you wanna know?
- Zorak: I was just asking.
- Space Ghost: Why, what have you heard?
- Zorak: I haven't heard anything. It was a completely innocent question.
- Space Ghost: Nothing about you is completely innocent. They've been talking about me, haven't they? They've been talking about replacing me, haven't they?
- Zorak: Oh, fer crying out loud!
- Space Ghost: It's Birdman, isn't it?
- Zorak: You are so paranoid!
- Space Ghost: You'd be paranoid, too, if you knew that everyone was out to get you!
- Zorak: I was just trying to make conversation...
