You think I'm just some fun guy from Fresno who tinkered with crack pot ideas in his attic? Well let me tell you something, this country was built on the shoulders of people who tinkered with crack pot ideas in their attics, basements and backyards. Alexander Graham Bell worked in a two room flat!
Clifford Sterling
Young man, don't presume to stand there and lecture me about great minds and great inventors. In all my years I've never worked with anyone who is a fool and I don't intend to start now. So, Charles, you're fired.
Dr. Charles Hendrickson
What?
Clifford Sterling
You're fired! So, Szalinski, what is your plan to get your kid back to normal by bed time?
Wayne
Mr. Sterling, sir, I can return my son back to normal!
Clifford Sterling
You can?
Dr. Charles Hendrickson
With that? Coca Cola bottles? Perhaps some chewing gum and twine?
Diane
Just who do you think you are talking to him like that?
Wayne
Diane, let me handle this. Who do you think you are talking to me like that?
Diane
[trying to get the truth from Wayne, who is slowly growing more nervous as she talks]
Wayne... Where is Adam? And who is that man in the van? [holds up the enlarged Big Bunny plush] And where did this bunny come from!?
Wayne
Alright, I confess! I did it!
Diane
Did what?
Adam
[comes in from the front door]
Peek-a-boo!
Wayne
I blew up the baby!
Adam
[Diane faints]
Mama fall down! Mama!
Nick
[appears from behind Adam]
How'd she take it?
Wayne
About like usual.
Adam
Mama sleeping?
Nick
[after getting picked up from his workplace, Wet 'n Wild]
Dad, were you ever popular in school?
Wayne
You bet. I was captain of the astronomy team three years in a row. We were happenin' guys.
Diane
Why are you closing the shutters?
Wayne
So one of the neighbors doesn't look in, see a 7 foot baby, and call the National Enquirer.
Adam
[hears the doorbell ringing]
Doorbell!
Diane
Who's that?
Wayne
One of the neighbors.
Diane
[sarcastically]
So far your plan has been working perfectly.
Diane
I don't understand any of this.
Wayne
Behind every electrical object, there's a magnetic force field.
Clifford Sterling
That's what's causing the baby to grow.
Marshall Brooks
Excuse me, but do these electrical object include neon lights?
Wayne
Yeah, why?
Marshall Brooks
Your son is heading for Las Vegas.
Diane, Wayne, Clifford Sterling
Uh-oh.
