    Dee Dee: Ow! [Rubs her face] Oh yeah!? Well just because I know how to have fun doesn't mean I'm stupid! I may not know all that scientifical makna logical stuff, but I know how to climb a tree, and I know how to pet a kitty just right. And I know how to tie my own shoes Mr zipper boot!... Actually, I feel sorry for you, Dexter. You're like a pickle - sour, and all bottled up in your laboratory. Toiling away alone in the dark, searching for answers to questions nobody asked. Locked away from the world, never to experience the true mysteries of life. Well, you can keep your cold, sterile little lab, because for me, the world is my laboratory! Goodbye, Dexter. I shan't impose on you ever again.

The gilded cage. My anti-matter will transform this simple vehicle. It consists of anti-particles with positron-surrounded nuclei imposed of anti-protons and anti-neutrons.

Well, Dexter, I think you're all set. There you go.

    Dee Dee: [her apparition appears in the shower] Dexter, help me! I am trapped in the Sewer Beyond!
    Dexter: No, you're not! I just saw you go down the toilet!
    Dee Dee: Listen to me! There's lots of bad fishies and stuff here and they won't let me go! They won't rest until Fishy is on the other side! You've got to flush Fishy, Dexter!
    Dexter: [tries to reach Fishy's corpse] Can't reach! It's no use! My arms, they are too short!

    High school kid: Hey, grow up man!
    Dad: [VO] They were all just jealous! Jealous of my powers! For I was a king, a force of nature, I was the ultimate snowball warrior! Then I went to college. I was never the same again! [remembers being struck by one snowball]
    Dad: That....was the coldest winter...ever... But that's where you come in! You can help me reclaim my title!
    Dexter: Why not just let Dee Dee do it?

    Dad: Dexter, five words: Scoop, roll, throw, hit, duck!

    Dad: I can't look, did he crash? No! No, he did just the opposite, he won! Winning is the part I enjoy most about racing especially when the winner is my son! Congratulations Dexter, you've made me very proud.
    Dexter: Thanks, Dad.
    Dad: If only your.... [sniffling] older sister Dee Dee were here to see this...

    Ice Cream Man: You are wanting to know why? You mean you do not remember?
    Dexter: Remember what?
    Ice Cream Man: April 19, one year ago: It is first day on job. Everything is going great, until you come. You want the most expensive ice cream. I make suggestion of cheaper ice cream, but no, you want expensive one. And after I'm giving you ice cream, you pay with PENNIES. Do you know how long it took me to count those pennies?
    Dexter: Emm... at an average human rate, I'd estimate about 5 hours and 33 minutes?
    Ice Cream Man: Precisely. And when the counting was done, it is time to put pennies in safe. Then I'm noticing my shoelaces untied. Now, I couldn't very well stop to tie my shoes since somebody had given me a heavy jar of pennies to hold, and the ice cream man rules say to keep any amount of money OVER a dollar in the safe. So, I trip, and I break my tooth. The pain, it is so bad. My girlfriend left me, I lose apartment, I lose car, I'm forced to live on the freeway with wild animals, I CAN'T EVEN EAT ICE CREAM BECAUSE OF THE PAIN! ALL BECAUSE OF YOUR STUPID PENNIES!!! [breathes hardly]
    Dexter: [chuckles] You know, I still have all of my baby teeth. Ern... I'm sorry. I'm really, really, really, REALLY sorry.
    Ice Cream Man: Forget about it, kid.
    Dexter: Well, in that case, can I order my ice cream now?
    Ice Cream Man: Sure.
    Dexter: I'll just have a Choco-Pop, please. [the Ice Cream Man gives him a Choco-Pop ice cream] At last, ice cream to eat!
    Ice Cream Man: Dollar fifty, please.
    Dexter: [gives a hundred dollar bill to Ice Cream Man] You got change for a hundred?
    [Ice Cream Man screams angrily again]

### Ultrajerk 2000 [2.15c]

    Ultrabot 2000: Greetings, Dexter. Welcome to my laboratory.
    Dexter: Emm, excuse me. But, did you say your laboratory?
    Ultrabot 2000: Yes, Dexter. My laboratory. While you slumbered, I began an analysis of your primitive laboratory finding it to be highly inefficient. I discovered that by salvaging useful components and destroying obsolete ones, I was able to create this tower capable of performing functions thousands of times greater than its predecessor, rendering a former laboratory and its creator obsolete. And all obsolete materials must be destroyed.
    Dexter: [chuckles] Well, then. It sounds like you had a busy night. I'll just unplug it for a little while and you can get some rest. [Ultrabot 4000 Observation Unit attacks him]
    Dexter: I have created a monster. I got to destroy him.
    Ultrabot 2000: I heard that. [Ultrabot 4000 Observation Unit attacks him again]
    Dexter: His laboratory, eh? We'll just see about that one.
    Dexter: [hides in a safe place] Drat. What I need is a diversion, something to draw their fire. Dee Dee! Oh, but Dee Dee is only around when I don't want her. [smiles in silence and pretends to be talking to Dee Dee] Oh, I certainly do have a lot of work to do, and I do not wish to be disturbed! I have no time to play now, so many thingies to do.
    Dee Dee: [arrives] Hi, Dexter!
    [Ultrabot 4000 Observation Units aim at Dee Dee]
    Ultrabot 2000: Attention, new organism. You are intruding in my laboratory. Prepare to be destroyed.
    Dee Dee: Hey, Dexter, what are you doing way up there?
    Ultrabot 2000: I am not Dexter. Dexter is obsolete. I am Ultrabot 2000.
    Dee Dee: Gee, Dexter. You look like Dexter.
    Ultrabot 2000: Not Dexter. Ultrabot 2000. Dexter is obsolete.
    Dee Dee: You sound like Dexter too, Dexter.
    Ultrabot 2000: Dexter is obsolete and must be destroyed. I am Omnibot, the most efficient life form in the universe.
    Dee Dee: Boy, you sure act like Dexter. And if you look like Dexter, sound like Dexter and act like Dexter, then you MUST be Dexter!
    Ultrabot 2000: [Ultrabot 4000 Observation Units aim at it] I am not Dexter. Dexter must be destroyed.
    Dee Dee: Whatever you say, Dexter. OK, see you later, Dexter. [leaves]
    Ultrabot 2000: [last words] No, wait. Don't listen to her. [Ultrabot 4000 Observation Units attack it and the control tower explodes] [Dexter approaches Omnibot's slightly active eye and kicks it, shutting it down]

But now, all we have is... [holds up empty coffee pot] THIS! [tries to get a drop from the coffee pot but nothing comes out] Empty! A mere shell of its former self! I've seen some pretty horrible things in my life, but this... this is just... [lowers his voice to a hiss] SICK! [sobbing]

    Dad: [dejected] So, what's new?
    Principal: So... as I was saying, we here at Huber Elementary take great pride in our brightest students like Dexter here [he rubs Dexter's head, Dexter laughs], which brings me to why I called you both here. It seems that, well, Dexter's grades are slipping. Now, ma'am, I know this may be hard for you to swallow, but... but... Dexter got an A minus on his last test. [starts crying] I'm sorry!
    Dee Dee: That's it? An A minus, that's what you did wrong?!
    Principal: Uh...
    Dee Dee: You give me a full body makeover all for a lousy A minus?!
    Principal: Um...
    Dee Dee: Jeez, I thought you stole the school mascot or destroyed the science lab...
    Dexter: Hey!
    Dee Dee: Or at least TP'd his office!
    Principal: Hey!
    Dee Dee: But no, you got a stupid A minus, [hits Dexter's head] dork.
    Principal: Oh my.
    Dexter: Well, "Mom", I wouldn't have gotten an A minus [jumps up and raises his voice] IF MY STUPID SISTER WOULD STOP BUGGING ME!
    Dee Dee: Dee Dee is not stupid! She is prettier, taller, nicer, friendlier, happier, and way more popular than you'll ever be! Plus, your father and I like her best so...
    [A fight between them breaks out]
    Principal: Um... Eh... Er... Wait. Er... stop? Please? Please! STOP!!! [Dexter and Dee Dee stop fighting] That's enough! Obviously, this Dee Dee is the root of a lot of aggression between you two. Which is why I'd like the three of you to talk to the school counselor, let's say, same time tomorrow?

    Dexter's Dad: Darn, I just can't get that kid! [He notices Dexter's Mom walking up to the pool] Oh, well! [while Mom dips one foot into the water to check if the water's nice, Dad runs up behind her and pushes her off the edge as she screams in terror and lands in the pool]

### Dexter's Laboratory: Ego Trip

    Old Man Dexter: [thundering voice from inside a tower] WHOO DARES TO DISTURB THE GREAT DEXTER WHILE HE DROPS SCIENCE UPON THE WORLD?
    Dexter: We are the Dexters of the past. We have come from the past to try to reach your all-knowing presence!
    Old Man Dexter: PRESENTS? I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY? I'LL BE RIGHT DOWN!
    Dexter: Dexter!
    Adult Dexter: Dexter!
    Old Man Dexter: Dexter! Wow!
    Adult Dexter: Oh yeah man!
    Dexter: You're as cool as I always wanted to be!
    Muscular Dexter: Uh... Dexters?
    Dexter: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And we traveled forward in the time 'cause I heard I... I mean... We saved the future, but he couldn't remember. So then we went back in time to find you and we did! And it was awesome!
    Muscular Dexter: Time travel, hmm... You boys will need to be filled in on a few things.
    Adult Dexter: Yeah, like what happened to the world?
    Dexter: And who is this science hoarding overlord?
    Muscular Dexter: Mandark.
    Dexter, Adult Dexter and Old Man Dexter: Mandark?!
    Muscular Dexter: Many moons ago, Mandark and I were employed by the corporation as research scientists to develop new technologies for the betterment of the future. So naturally, as my genius produced a fountain of amazing ideas. A not so inspired Mandark grew more and more jealous. He began stealing my creations and presenting them as his own. As you may well remember.
    Adult Dexter: [angry] Grrr!
    Muscular Dexter: He soon gained favor with the executive hierarchy and was quickly promoted up through the ranks. And with one diabolical coup, Mandark overthrew and became the very President of the corporation himself. Then darkness fell. Somehow my most prized invention: the Neurotomic Protocore, fell into Mandark's clutches.
    Adult Dexter: Oh my gosh, we left the core out in my cubicle. [Dexter hits him with his elbow]
    Muscular Dexter: Mandark tried to employ the powers of the core but the incompetent fool set the positive flow to negative. And now corrupt energies of the core began to twist Mandark already crooked mind, making him even more greedy insane than ever before. I could take it no more. To escape the perversion of my own science, I went underground literally. I dug a tunnel out from Mandark's tower. For years I dug and dug, inching my way to freedom. But while I dug the negative Neurotomic energy swept the world, numbing the minds of the people, allowing Mandark to work his evil tentacles into every facet of technology and society. It was as though he just reached down and wrecked the Earth clean. Hoarding all science, all knowledge for himself. When I emerged I found this world broken and stupid. I did what I could to help, but with the overlord's robots enforcing terror across the land and very few resources at my disposal, it's been a fight just to survive.
    Dexter: Aw, buck up, hero, we found the lab and we can all help.
    Muscular Dexter: The laboratory!?! I had thought it lost forever. But with the power of the lab plus the genius of me times four equals, the cataclysmic collapse of the overlord's empire of oppression!
    Dexter, Adult Dexter and Old Man Dexter: Yeah!
    Muscular Dexter: To the laboratory!
    Muscular Dexter: I'd like to take this time to pat myselfs on the back. Gentlemen, here's to another greatest work completed, for tomorrow we storm the castle!
    Dexter, Adult Dexter and Old Man Dexter: Yeah!
    [The four Dexters clink the root beer bottles]
    [The Mandarks rally to stop the Dexters from getting the Neurotomic Proto-Core]
    Young Mandark: No! I've always wanted the Core!
    Adult Mandark: No! I stole the Core!
    Overlord Mandark: No! The Core is mine!
    Mandark's Brain: No! Just because I'm bitter and jealous!
    Old Man Dexter: I remember! I REMEMBER! Dee Dee was the one who saved the future!
    Dexter: What? No way!
    Adult Dexter: That didn't just happen!
    Muscular Dexter: I wanted to be the one who saved the future!
    Old Man Dexter: Argh! That girl!
    [The Dexters start building robots]
    Dexter: I'll teach her to mess up my future savings.
    Adult Dexter: Yeah, we'll show her!
    Muscular Dexter: Ooh, that little ding dong!
    Old Man Dexter: We'll get her once and for all!
    [The Dexters finish building robots]
    Dexter: Robots! Destroy the one who saved the future! [The robots walk towards the time machine] Well. Huh. That should take care of Dee Dee. It looks like the future is back on track.
    Muscular Dexter: I've got a lot of cleaning up to do but with a positive flow of the core everything should work out fine.
    Dexter: Well then, we should be getting back to our own times. Goodbye, Dexter.
    Muscular Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Old Man Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Adult Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Muscular Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Old Man Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Adult Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Muscular Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Adult Dexter: Goodbye, Dexter.
    Old Man Dexter: Goodbye, Billy.
    Dexter: Well, that wasn't exactly what I expected, but I did turn out pretty cool in the future. [sees himself fighting the robots and is surprised] Wait a minute, I'm still here fighting those robots. [breaks the fourth wall] But wait, those are the robots I just built to get Dee Dee while we're building the future. But now I'm about to destroy them before I even decide to go into the future. So that means when I came back, I came back too far, back before I ever left. So I must have come... No I... Or they were... Oh, forget it. Time travel hurts my brain.

    Dad: The boy's right, dear. [puts his hands on his wife's hips] There is much work to be doing.

### Dexter's Library [4.2c]

    Dexter: Ah, the sweet and silent solitude of the school library.
    Boy: Oh yeah, we're so prepared for this. This is going to be a great game, we're going to kicky Booty.
    Girl: Our new cheers are so awesome. Wait until you see them, you're not gonna believe it!
    Dexter: Ahem! [puts the piece of paper that says "No talking in the Library!" on the table, takes the book from the boy] No book for you, [takes book from the girl] and no book for you!
    Dexter: Ah, here we are. 701.328. [gasps] Hello! What is this?! "Green Bacon and Eggs"! What is a children's book doing in coelacanth paleobiology? [gets enraged]
    Robot: [goes in search of a book and returns to Dexter] Cannot confirm target.
    Dexter: Cannot confirm target? You illiterate Android! [slaps the robot] Must I spell everything out for you recycled soup cans?
    Salinger: Dexter, I am very disappointed in you. I leave you in charge of the library for one hour, and look what you do. Just look at this mess.
    Dexter: But- but- I... they...
    Salinger: I'm giving you the maximum library penalty.
    Dexter: [gasps] No! Not that! Please, Miss Salinger. No!

    Mandark: May I? [grabs the remote control] With a push of this button, I, Mandark, will unleash a mind-bending transmission which will put the entire universe under my control. And that means you, too, Dorkster. I have double-crossed you once again. And now it will all be mine! [laughs] Ha!
    [Mandark tries pressing the button over and over, and Dexter plugs the power cord, and the invention explodes by displaying the title of the television series as a reference to the intro]

    Mandark: This was supposed to be mine, Dexter! All mine, not yours! Mine!

    Dexter: [sees Dee Dee's hair cut off and laughs insanely] OH, YOU'RE KILLING ME! [laughing and snorting]
    Dee Dee: So?
    Dexter: Now, Dee Dee. We have been through this scenario so many times before, and you know that I am helpless to assist you for one simple and very basic reason: you are STUPID!
    Dee Dee: Oh, please, Dexter. Please! Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please! Oh, please, Dexter! Use your vast and unlimited knowledge of science to help me get my hair back! Pretty please.
    Dexter: Well, no.
    Dee Dee: Alright, Dexter, but remember... [grows bigger] I am your big sister! [grows some more] AND I WILL CRUSH YOU LIKE A BUG... [grows again] ...IF YOU DON'T DO AS I SAY!
    Dexter: Now, Dee Dee, pay attention. You are only to apply one drop of this stuff. Do you understand? One drop, not 2 drops, not 3 drops, not 75 drops. JUST ONE DROP! GOT IT?!
    Dee Dee: Yeah. Of course I got it, Dexter. Just one drop. [sings and leaves the lab] One drop, one drop, one drop, one drop...
    [Dee Dee screams while running entering the lab]
    Dexter: Let me guess. You used more than one drop.
    Dee Dee: It was too one drop, Dexter! Just a really, really big one drop!
    Dexter: Hmm...

### Comic Stripper [4.10c]

    Dexter: You did it all wrong, Mandark. I figured out you were copying "Mister Misery" all along, so I played your own game against you. [Mandark pretends to be yawning] And then you have the nerve [throws the "Mister Misery" comic] not to even follow the dumb story! Oh, and one other thing... WHAT IS WITH ALL THIS STUPID QUACKING?!
    Mandark: Well, you see, Dexter. I went to buy "Mister Misery" but the store was all sold out. So I picked up a copy of "Dangerous Duck" instead.
    Dexter: And do you know why "Mister Misery" was all sold out? Because I bought them all.
    Mandark: Hmm. Well, then. If you bought them all, how did you expect me to know all "Mister Misery"'s new fight moves then?! [Dexter is upset and a donkey appears] QUACK. [teases Dexter and walks away]

### Chicken Scratch [4.12b]

    Dexter: [screams in shock] What are the strange protrusions? I must investigate immediately. [Dee Dee arrives while singing] Uh-oh.
    Dexter: OK, Dee Dee, way too much has happened this morning so, please, GET OUT OF MY LABORATORY! [closes the door] I have no time for her foolishness today.
    Dee Dee: [opens the door] But, Dexter, I'm not in your labor... [stops and looks at Dexter] YOU'VE GOT CHICKENPOX!
    Dexter: Chickenpox? What is this pox of the chicken?
    Dee Dee: Poor Dexter, so knowledgeable in science, but doesn't have enough common sense to know what chickenpox is. Well, a long time ago, a group of evil, contaminated chickens escaped from jail, and started to break into children's houses where they pecked away, giving huge, itchy pimples. And if you stratch them, you turn into an evil, contaminated chicken.
    Dexter: Are you crazy, wom-? [scratches]
    Dee Dee: [clucks].
    Dexter: [screams in fear] I do not want to be an evil, contaminated chicken.
    Dee Dee : Then, don't scratch! [leaves Dexter's room]
    Dexter: That seems simple enough. [scratches and stops] I'd better keep myself busy so as not to think about the itching.
    Dexter: Perfect. [thinking while scratching] Now, how much dioxide detrolium should I add? Hmm... what is the correct amount? [stops thinking and scratching and laughs] Silly me! [scratches again] Avoiding scratching this whole time? [freaks out] ROBOT! More drastic measures must be taken.
    Robot: Yes, Dexter?
    Dexter: Robot, if you see me scratching a part of my body, I want you to zap me with 100 watts of electrons.
    Robot: Yes, Dexter. [zaps Dexter]
    Dexter: I wasn't ready, Robot.
    Robot: Yes, Dexter. [zaps Dexter again]
    Dexter: I said I wasn't ready.
    Robot: Yes, Dexter.
    Dexter: No, Robot, wait! [robot zaps him again] This is not working. [robot zaps him again] STOP, ROBOT!
    Dexter: A new invention must be created.
    Dexter: [after creating his invention] Success!
    Dexter: [destroys the straps after failing to hold back the itching] GOTTA SCRATCH!
    Dee Dee: Hello! [screams and ducks under her bed] Dexter, is that you?
    Dexter: [is now turned into a chicken] Yeah, I scratched.

    Dee Dee: Oooh! Dexter's got gas!
    Rude Dexter: Where the f'ck are we?
    Rude Dee Dee: Beats the cr'p out of me!
    Dexter: [With a British accent] Why, you're in Dexter's Laboratory, silly. I'm Dexter, and this golden-haired angel behind me is my charming sister, Dee Dee.
    Dee Dee: [With a British accent] Charmed!
    Rude Dexter: Ah, f'ck off!
    Dexter and Dee Dee: [gasp] Oh dear!
    Mom: I hope you're hungry, 'cause I made a [trips over Rude Dexter] very... SPECIAL LUNCH THAT I GOT FROM A RECIPE THAT I... FOUND IN A BESSIE CRACKER MAGAZINE! [pants] I hope you like it.
    Mom: [dizzy] Well, what do you think, Dexter?
    Rude Dexter: [mouth full] I think it tastes like sh't! [spits at Mom]
    Mom: [faints]
    Mom: [angry] Dexter! No, absolutely not! You cannot have any dessert!
    Rude Dexter: Why? You want it all to yourself?
    Mom: [gasps, then faints]
    Mom: Now to clean those filthy mouths.
    Dexter: [to the audience] Oh, sh't!
