Arthur Weighs In/Transcript
Big Bob's Big Top
Circus Announcer: Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Step right up! Come see Big Bob's Big Top! Beyond this curtain lies a treasure trove that's ginormous, gigantic, and super-sized! Peek at the Poughkeepsie Pumpkin! Positively perplexing in proportion!
Crowd: Oooh!
Circus Announcer: Pound upon pound, and grown from the ground!
Crowd: Ahhh!
Circus Announcer: Marvel at the mystifying Minnewasaka Meteorite! More massive than a mobile home! And did I mention--it's magnetic?
Crowd: Oooh!
Circus Announcer: And lastly--look upon the Leaden Lump of Elwood City.
Crowd: (gasps)
Circus Announcer: Large...lardy...a lifeless layabout lump of...lumpiness!
Crowd: (gasps)
Circus Announcer: Ah, it's alive! Run for your life!
(The crowd shrieks while the announcer continues to shout "Run! Run!")
Arthur: No, hey! It's me, Arthur! Come back!
Title Card
Binky: "Arthur Weighs In"
Arthur's Room
Arthur: For the last time, there's no such thing as a--a g-g-g--ghost? Ahh!
DW: You don't sound very scared to me!
Arthur: DW, I think I need to practice my lines by myself.
DW: But Arthur, this is the school play! Your big chance! When you see the ghost, you should be really scared! Like this! A g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-ghost!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh--wahhhhh--ahhhhh...agh. Like that. (points at Arthur's clothes) Is that what you're wearing for your costume?
Arthur: What's wrong with it?
(The button pops off the pants and flies past DW's face)
DW: Ahh!
Den
Jane Read: They fit when you wore them for Aunt Lucy's wedding. Maybe you've had a growth spurt.
DW: A g-g-g-g-g-g-ghost! Ahh!
Jane Read: OK, DW. Why don't you wear your regular pants?
Arthur: Mr. Ratburn says it has to be a suit. I play the owner of this big mansion, and I'm supposed to be really rich. It's essential to my part.
Jane Read: We'll go shopping tomorrow.
Clothing Store
Jane Read: Well, how's it going?
Arthur: Mom, no! You can't come in!
Salesman: May I be of assistance?
Jane Read: Oh, we can't seem to find anything that fits.
Salesman: No problem. (He takes Arthur's measurements) Come with me, young man. I believe I have just the thing for the growing boy! Here we are!
Arthur: Um...is that all there is?
Salesman: Our store doesn't carry much in the way of...husky size.
Arthur: Husky size?!
