    • Quotes

      Gary: Gaze into the crystal ball of the fortune-teller. They say it allows a glimpse into the future... I see that Kiki has an incredible voice. She will someday be a famous singer.

      Kiki: Cool.

      Gary: Betty Ann's compassion and intelligence will lead her into a career in medicine.

      Betty Ann: Really?

      Gary: [nods and moves on] Stig will be... a professional wrestler.

      Stig: Yes!

      Gary: Sam's love for adventure will make her a famous explorer - maybe searching the ocean depths, where no one has gone before.

      Sam: I *like* this game.

      Gary: And, Tucker... he will clean elephant-cages at the zoo.
