• [after talking quietly to himself in bed] 

  Bean : [loudly]  Wait a minute, Wait a minute, wait a minute...

  [falls off the bed] 

  Lugsy : we're waiting...

• Bean : [imagining]  I'm not really Bean, I'm not really Bean, I'm not really Bean, I'm a giant tree and that dog can't get me.

  [fantasy sequence: Bean's a tree out in the middle of the woods when the dog comes up] 

  Dog : Sniff sniff sniff, now where'd that bunny go?

  [Bean sighs and the dog looks up] 

  Bean : Nobody here but us trees.

  Dog : Right.

• Twitch : Bean... Bean?

  Bean : [hissing]  Bean's not here.

  Lugsy : Then who're you?

  Bean : [hissing]  I'm a fire breathing dragon.

  Lugsy : I'm not a bad bunny, am I?

  Twitch : No.

  Lugsy : [shouting]  Then why do I have to have a little brother who always pretends he's a fire breathing dragon?

• Bean : Please don't make me go, there's a dog out there!

  Father : Dog! Did you say dog?

  Bean : Dog!

  Father : Dog!

  Bean : Dog!

  Father : Dog!

  Bean : Dog!

  Father : Dog!

  Lugsy : There's no dog.

  Father : No dog?

  Lugsy : No dog, it's just his imagination, again.

• Bunny : [after Grandpa Bean tells the story of the bunny picnic and the dog and the farmer]  But Grandpa Bean, what about the bunny picnic?

  Bean : Oh well I'm glad you asked, because there's never been another bunny picnic like it, before or since.

• Bean : [Bean and the Dog are hiding, the farmer's sneezing]  What's going on?

  Dog : Bunnies make him sneeze something awful.

  Bean : They do? That gives me an idea.

  [leaves the bush] 

  Dog : Where are you going, bunny? If he sees you... oh no...

  Farmer : [sees Bean]  Oh no! Stay away from me! Stay away from me or I'll... ACHOO!

  Bean : Quick everyone, out in the open!

  Lugsy : [to Twitch]  If he can do it, so can I.

• Twitch : Bean? Bean?

  Bean : I'm not Bean, I'm a weasel.

  [sniffs] 

  Lugsy : No no no, you're not a weasel, you're a pain in the...

  Great Grandmother : [opens her door]  Next door neighbor.

• Great Grandmother : I've only seen two dogs, both at a distance.

  Lugsy : You see, Bean?

  Bean : I am not Bean, I'm a nasty old owl and I'm going to get you.

  [charges at Lugsy but Great Grandmother gets in the way] 

  Great Grandmother : Now Bean, you don't have to pretend to be a nasty old owl, why? Because you're a little bunny, at least that's what you are on the outside. Get it?
