A scene from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory 2005
Veruca Salt

Daddy, I want a squirrel. Get me one of those squirrels, I want one!

Mr. Salt

Veruca dear, you have many marvelous pets.

Veruca Salt

All I've got at home is one pony and two dogs and four cats and six bunny rabbits and two parakeets and three canaries and a green parrot and a turtle, and a silly old hamster! I WANT a SQUIRREL!

Mr. Salt

All right, pet. Daddy will get you a squirrel just as soon as he possibly can.

Veruca Salt

But I don't want any old squirrel! I want a trained squirrel!

Mr. Salt

[wearily]

Very well. Mr. Wonka, how much do you want for one of those squirrels. Name your price.

Willy Wonka

[Veruca smiles]

Oh they're not for sale. She can't have one.

Veruca Salt

[her smile drops to an angry expression]

Daddy!

Willy Wonka

[imitating Mr. Salt]

I'm sorry, darling. Mr. Wonka's being unreasonable.

Veruca Salt

If you won't get me a squirrel, I'll get one myself!
