Quotes

Melody: Well, I hope your happy, Mr. Hero. If you'd just listened to me in the first place and stayed at the party like I told you to, we wouldn't be stranded out here on this island.
Misty: Welcome to my world. I have to deal with his stubborn attitude every single day.
Melody: Oh, you'll get used to it. It's just something you're gonna need to work on when the two of you get married.
Misty: [shouts] Take that back!
