Addams Family Values quotes

Page 6 of 7
[reading the letter in her hand]

"Dear Wednesday and Pugsley. I love you dearly, but I can never see you again."

[impatiently]

Glicker, go!

[Joel gives up and flings the arrow at the ground]

Good try!

[Joel goes to the end of the line, as Pugsley takes the bow, and Wednesday finishes reading]

"When you are grown up and very lonely, you will understand. Love, Uncle Fester." He's a dead man.

[Pugsley hits an American Bald Eagle]

It's an American Bald Eagle!

But aren't they extinct?

They are now.

Death! Death to the enemies of the people of the Republic. [Pugsley releases the guillotine and chops a watermelon in half] Hurrah! Justice is served. Bring forward the evil one. [Pugsley brings over Pubert, who is in a white dress and bonnet] You have betrayed the people of France. You are evil incarnate. How do you plead?

[holding up Pubert, speaking in "baby voice"]

Guilty!

Guilty! By her own admission! The sentence is death. Executioner, place her on the block. [Pugsley lays Pubert down in the guillotine] 1... 2...

[from downstairs]

Children, what are you doing?

[in unison with Pugsley]

Playing! [solo] ...3! [She releases the guillotine. Pubert catches the blade in his fingers] Woe to the Republic.

Hurry up!

I'm coming.

Wait!

Who's there?

Be careful. Tetanus.

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

There they are! I saw them sneak out.

Children, what do you think you're doing?

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

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

And Joel Glicker. I'm surprised at you.

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

[mockingly]

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

Yes.

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

[chanting along with Amanda]

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

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

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?

What?

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

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

I don't want to be in the pageant.

Don't you want to help me realize my vision?

Your work is puerile and under-dramatized. You lack any sense of structure, character, and the Aristotelian unities.

Young lady, I am getting just a tad tired of your attitude problem.

Pugsley, the baby weighs 10 pounds, the cannonball weighs 20 pounds. Which will hit the stone walkway first?

I'm still on fractions.

Which do you think?

The cannonball?

Very good. But which one will bounce?

The baby?

There's only one way to find out. Ready? 1... 2... 3...

[She and Pugsly drop a cannonball from the roof. Gomez opening the window to enjoy the night air, and catching Pubert as he falls from the roof]

Cara mia!

Oh, dear.

[The cannonball lands on Lurch's head]

Grrrrr...

What are you in for?

I wouldn't go horseback riding.

That's all?

And I wouldn't make a bird house.

Why not?

I just wanted to read.

[popping in and taking Joel's book]

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

Young Girl

And then Mommy kissed Daddy, and the angel told the stork, and the stork flew down from heaven, and left a diamond under a leaf in the cabbage patch, and the diamond turned into a baby!

Our parents are having a baby, too.

They had sex.

[after the dancer in the cake doesn't pop out]

That poor girl. Lurch, was she in there before you baked? [as Lurch hangs his head] C'est la vie!

[After Wednesday catches Debbie's wedding bouquet]

Now, you have to get married.

It's not binding.

Cousin Ophelia

Tramp.

[Debbie has the entire Addams family, plus Lurch and Thing, all rigged to electric chairs]

I don't wanna hurt anybody. I don't enjoy hurting anybody. I don't like guns, or bombs, or electric chairs. But sometimes people just won't listen. And so, I have to use persuasion. And slides. [showing slide pictures] My parents, Sharon and Dave. Generous, doting, or were they? All I ever wanted was a Ballerina Barbie. In her pretty pink tutu. My birthday. [the slide shows her as a child, smiling and opening a gift] I was 10, and do you know what they got me? Malibu Barbie.

Malibu Barbie.

The nightmare.

Morticia and Gomez

The nerve.

[flicking to the next slide of her throwing a bared-teeth temper tantrum]

That's not what I wanted! That's not who I was. I was a ballerina, graceful, delicate! They had to go.
[The next slide shot shows a burning house]
