Wednesday

What are you in for?

Joel

I wouldn't go horseback riding.

Wednesday

That's all?

Joel

And I wouldn't make a bird house.

Wednesday

Why not?

Joel

I just wanted to read.

Gary
[popping in and taking Joel's book]

Not on my time, four-eyes! [laughs like a neighing horse]

Wednesday

Hurry up!

Pugsley

I'm coming.

Joel

Wait!

Wednesday

Who's there?

Joel

Be careful. Tetanus.

Amanda
[Suddenly, a siren sounds] [walking toward Wednesday, Pugsley and Joel with Gary, Becky and Camp Children]

There they are! I saw them sneak out.

Gary

Children, what do you think you're doing?

Wednesday

We have to see our family. It's very important.

Becky

More important than a summer of fun? More important than making new friends? More important than sharing?

Gary

And Joel Glicker. I'm surprised at you.

Joel

I-I have to get out of here. I have allergies.

Becky
[mockingly]

Oh, you're allergic? To sunshine and archery and crafts?

Joel

Yes.

Amanda

I think they should be punished. [starts chanting] Punish!

Camp Children
[chanting along with Amanda]

Punish! Punish! Punish! Punish! Punish! Punish!

Becky

No! No! We are not here to punish. We are here to inspire.

Gary

Campers? Do you know what I think our little ninja friends here need? Do you know what just might turn their sad and potentially wasted little lives right all around?

Joel

What?

Camp Children
[singing in unison with Gary, Becky, and Amanda]

Kumbaya, my Lord, kumbaya. Kumbaya, my Lord, kumbaya. Kumbaya, my Lord, kumbaya. Oh Lord, kumbaya.

Joel

Do you know what happens if my mother uses a fabric softener?

Wednesday

What?

Joel

I die.

Wednesday

Do you believe in the existence of evil?

Joel

Well, did you met my mom?

Wednesday

My uncle Fester's about to get married to this woman in a white uniform.

Joel

A radiologist.

Wednesday

A nanny.

Joel
[After Wednesday catches Debbie's wedding bouquet]

Now, you have to get married.

Wednesday

It's not binding.

Cousin Ophelia

Tramp.

Joel
[to Wednesday and Pugsley]

Look at this. I got 'em. "Schizos and Serial Killers". I have almost the whole series. I'm only missing Jack the Ripper and that Zodiac Guy.

Gary

Yes, indeedy, just the ticket: "Bambi."

Becky

"Lassie Come Home."

Gary

"The Little Mermaid."

Wednesday

Stop it!

Joel
[motioning to Pugsley]

He's only a child.

Joel

I'll never forget you.

Wednesday

You won't?

Joel

You're too weird. Cara mia.

Wednesday

Mon cher.

Joel
[dressed like Gomez]

How do I look?

Wednesday

Disturbing.

Joel
[last lines]

Wednesday, do you think that maybe someday you might want to get married and have kids?

Wednesday

No.

Joel

But what if you met the right man, who worshipped and adored you? Who'd do anything for you? Who'd be your devoted slave? Then what would you do?

Wednesday

I'd pity him.

Joel

Poor Debbie. She was sick.

Wednesday

She wasn't sick. She was sloppy.

Joel

What do you mean?

Wednesday

If I wanted to kill my husband, I'd do it, and I wouldn't get caught.

Joel

How?

Wednesday

I'd scare him to death.

Joel

No, you wouldn't. [He kneels at Debbie's grave] We're all very sorry, Debbie. We wish you only the best. [He reaches out to put flowers on the grave. Suddenly, a hand reaches up and grabs him. He screams while Wednesday smiles]
