Harry

I think we're getting scammed by a kindergartner.

Kids are scared of the dark.

Harry

You're afraid of the dark too, Marv.

No I'm not!

Harry

Yes, you are.

Not! Not! Not!

Harry

What's so funny? What are you laughing at? You did it again, didn't you? You left the water running, didn't you? What's wrong with you? Why did you that? I told you not to do it.

Harry, it's our calling card.

Harry

Calling card.

All the great ones leave their mark. We're the Wet Bandits.

Hey, watch out!

AAAAHHHHH!

Harry
[The truck stops]

Hey, hey! You gotta watch out for traffic, son, you know.

Santy don't visit funeral homes, little buddy.

Harry

Okay, okay. Merry Christmas.

[Harry and Marv are just about to break-into the McCallister's house]

How do you want to go in?

Harry

We'll go through the back door. Maybe he'll let us in. You never know.

Yeah. He's a kid. Kid's are stupid. [In trailer but not in film] I know I was.

Harry

You still are, Marv.

Harry
[While in the van with Marv]

I don't get it. I mean right now it looks like there's nobody home. Last night, the place was jumping. Something ain't right. [To Marv] Go check it out.

[Long pause. Marv just nods. Harry looks at Marv in a stunned way while Marv looks over at Harry]

Now?

Harry
[Harry fumes]

No! Tomorrow, Egghead! NOW! GET!

Harry
[Marv quickly gets out of the van] [To himself]

"Now"!?

Harry

Remember the kid we saw the other day? He lives here.

Well, if the kid's there, his parents gotta be.

Harry

He's home alone.

Harry

Merry Christmas, little fella. We know that you're in there, and that you're all alone.

Yeah, come on, kid, open up. It's Santy Claus... and his elf!

Harry

We're not gonna hurt you.

Oh no, no, we got some nice presents for you.

Harry

Be a good little fella now, and open the door. [Kevin shoots Harry in the groin; high-pitched] AHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOO... [Fall to his knees, cursing]

What? What? What?! What happened?!

Harry

Get the little...!

[Marv sticks his head to the dog door and smiles]

Hello.

[Kevin shoots Marv at the head causing him to fall the dog door]

AH! AHHH!

Yes! Yes!

The little jerk is armed!

Harry

That's it! That's it! I'm going round the front, you go to the basement!

Harry

Where did he go?

Maybe he committed suicide.

Over here you horse-ass. Come and get me before I call the cops.

Let's get him!

Harry

No, wait! That's just what he wants us to do. To back down through his fun house.

But he's gonna call the cops!

Harry

He's not gonna call the cops from a treehouse!

There! What are we gonna do with him, Harry?

Harry

We'll do exactly what he did to us: we're gonna burn his head with a blowtorch.

And smash his face with an iron!

Harry

I like to slap him right in the face with a paint can.

And shove a nail through his foot!

Harry

First off, I'm gonna bite off his every little fingers one at a time.
[Just then, Marley knocks Harry and Marv with his shovel]

[to Kevin]

What is the matter with you?!

He started it! He ate my pizza on purpose! He knows I'd hate sausage, and olives, and onions, and...

Uncle Frank
[cutting him off]

Look what you did, you little jerk!

[Everyone goes quiet, looking at Kevin]

Kevin, get upstairs right now.

Why?

Kevin, you're such a disease.

Shut up!

Kevin, upstairs!

Say good night, Kevin.

[sarcastically]

"Good night, Kevin". Why do I always get treated like scum?

[to Pizza Boy]

Oh, I am sorry. This house is just crazy. We've got all these extra kids running around. My brother-in-law drove in from Ohio today. It's just nuts.

How come you didn't bring any more cheese pizzas?

Pizza Boy

Nice tip. Thanks a lot.

Thanks.

Harry

Having a reunion or something?

My husband's brother transferred to Paris last year. His kids are still there. He missed the family, so he invited us to Paris so we can be together.

Harry

You're taking a trip to Paris?

Yes, we hope to leave tomorrow morning.

Harry

Excellent, excellent.

If you'll excuse me, this one's a little out of sorts. I'll be right back.

Harry

Don't worry about me. I spoke to your husband already. And don't worry about your home. It's in good hands.

[escorting Kevin to the attic after he caused trouble in the kitchen]

There are 15 people in this house. You're the only one who has to make trouble.

I'm the only one getting dumped on.

You're the only one actin' up. Now, get upstairs.

I am upstairs, dummy. Third floor?

Go there.

It's scary up there.

Don't be silly. Fuller will be up in a little while.

I don't wanna sleep with Fuller. You know about him. He wets the bed. He'll pee all over me. I know it!

Fine. We'll put him someplace else.

I'm sorry.

It's a tad late. So, get upstairs.

Everyone in this family hates me.

Then, maybe you should ask Santa for a new family.

I don't want a new family! I don't want any family! Families suck!

Just stay up there. I don't wanna see you again for the rest of the night.

I don't wanna see you again for the rest of my whole life. And I don't wanna see anybody else, either.

[feeling hurt]

I hope you don't mean that. You'd feel pretty sad if you woke up tomorrow morning and you didn't have a family.

No, I wouldn't.

Then, say it again. Maybe it'll happen.

I hope that I never see any of you jerks again! [runs upstairs in a huff, and Kate closes the door]

Suit yourself.
