Desperately Seeking Stanley/Transcript

(In Arthur 's bedroom)

Woogle: (sneezes) If we were on a lower shelf, maybe someone would dust this once in a while!

Stanley: But there's such a lovely view from up here.

Woogle: Yeah, well enjoy it while it lasts! I'd give us two more months, then it's the trash can.

Stanley: The trash can?! Don't be absurd! Arthur would never throw us away.

Woogle: Oh yeah? Have you seen yourself lately? You're falling apart!

Stanley: Really? Oh, dear.

Woogle: Face it, Stanley. You're a has-been! Yesterday's toy! A moldy (inaudible).

(dog barks)

Kate Read: Oh, Pal! Look! That wicked Woogle is being mean to Stanley again.

Woogle: You smell. Why couldn't I have been put next to something rubber?

Pal: Nasty little fad. Stay here, Kate. Hang on, old man! (barks again)

Woogle: Arthur couldn't give you away.

Kate: Are you all right, Stanley?

Stanley: Sure. Never better, although I seem to be losing my leg.

Pal: You mustn't listen to anything that Woogle says!

Stanley: Oh, I don't! Arthur and I have been through so much together. I'm not going anywhere.

Arthur's Mom: (sighs) If I have to sew this bear one more time....

Woogle: Ha-ha-ha. Well, at least the mutt still likes you. If you're lucky, maybe he'll use you as his chew-toy!

D.W.: Oh yeah. He’s a real bargain. He's cute and furry and comes with free dust!

Arthur wants to rescue Stanley from the Tibbles.

Timmy: He didn’t even ask if he could come in. Can I call the police, Grandma?

Mrs. Tibble: Not today, Timmy.

Mrs. Tibble shows Arthur her toy room.

Mrs. Tibble: I keep this door locked. (chuckles)   The boys are such angels, but why tempt them?
