[Johnny talks to his dad in an inmate phone service]
Where were you?
Johnny
Um, well, the thing is I went to get gas, and I–
Marcus
[bangs on the table]
Don't Lie to Me!
Johnny
Um, I was at a rehearsal.
Marcus
Rehearsal, for what?
Johnny
[sighs]
I was at a singing contest. Look, Dad. I'm sorry, I just don't want to be in your gang. I want to be a singer.
Marcus
[snarls in frustration]
Singer?
Johnny
Look, Dad, no, it's okay, it's okay! I can get the bail money! There's a prize, it's $100,000.
Marcus
[drops the phone that everyone in the phone service pauses their conversations]
How did I end up with a son like you, eh? [Johnny stares at him in shock] You're nothing like me. You never were, and you never will be. [hangs up and walks away]
Johnny
Dad, wait! I'll get you out! I'll get the money! I promise!
Buster

Meena's Grandpa: If I had a voice like Meena's I'd be a superstar by now! Just singing... ♪ Ooh, yeah, I said, "ooh, yeah…" ♪
Meena
Sure you would, Grandpa. Now blow out your candles.

[after seeing Becky and Lance making out and finding out Lance broke up with her]
BECKY?!
Ash
[angrily kicking them out for breaking up with her]
I DID IT FOR US, LANCE! YOU AND ME!
Ash
[as Buster plays "Call Me Maybe" to her]
I am NOT singing this.
Buster Moon
[first words; narrating]
This was it. The moment it all began. The moment an ordinary little guy fell in love with theater. Everything about it: the lights, the way the scenery moved, even the smell. He was only 6 years old, but his plans to become the first koala bear in space were suddenly... toast. Some folks may have said he grew up to be the greatest showman the city has ever seen. Some called him a visionary, a maverick. Sure some folks said he was as crazy as he was stubborn, but I say wonder and magic don't come easy, pal, and oh, there would never be any doubt. The name Buster Moon would go down in entertainment history. And I should know, because I am Buster...
Buster Moon
[gasps]
Uh... [nervous chuckles] Forgot my keys. Koala well be right back.
Buster Moon
[last words; to the animals]
All creatures great and small, welcome to the New Moon Theater!
Ash
[sarcastic]
Wow, it is like you can see inside my tiny teenaged mind!

[tearfully]
Oh, Dad... I'm so sorry.
Gunter
[to Buster]
Oh yes, I'm fine, thank you... How are you?
Eddie
A singing competition? Who wants to see another one of those?
