    Seasons: 1 2 3 | Main
The following is a list of quotes from the first season of The Berenstain Bears.

## Season 1
### Trouble at School / Visit the Dentist [1.1]

    [first lines of the series, echoing the book the episode was based on]
    Brother Bear: When a problem at school is kept secret too long, it can grow until a cub thinks everything is wrong!
    [Sister --after bringing Brother make-up math homework-- sees Brother still playing with his dinosaur collection.]
    Sister Bear: If you can hold a dinosaur, you can hold a pencil!
    [Sister puts Brother's make-up work on his bed and angrily walks away. Echoing from the book, "While Brother was having fun at home, his fellow classmates --in Teacher Bob's class-- were hard at work. They learned addition, subtraction, and multiplication. And now they were learning about division". For multiplication and division, they first learned about their multiplication times tables through 9 --counting by 1's, 2's, 3's, 4's, 5's, 6's, 7's, 8's and 9's-- and now they were learning multiplication and division facts through 9. But Brother, he has not done any of his multiplication and division homework since Sister brought him it on Monday.]
    Teacher Bob: If you all take your seats, we can all get started on the division test. Please remember to show me all your calculations on the margin.
    [The quiz is about division. It is about division facts --1 through 9. For multiplication, Brother's class learned multiplication facts through 9. Now on division, it was division facts through 9. In the book version, it says, "Then when Brother got back to school, Teacher Bob said to him and his class, 'I certainly hope you studied that math folder. Because we are going to have a quiz'. 'A quiz?', asked Brother. 'About what?'. 'About division of course', said Teacher Bob as he handed out the quiz packets".]
    Teacher Bob: Goodbye! I'll see you tomorrow.
    [Even though most of the students did great, there was one "F" and that was Brother. The scene cuts to Teacher Bob who glares at Brother. Then it cuts to Brother. That is, who looks guilty after failing the division quiz. Brother may have gotten every single problem wrong or cheated with another student's test.]
    Brother Bear: Uh oh! This can't be good!
    Teacher Bob: I'm afraid it isn't, Brother!
    [Teacher Bob then reveals the division quiz. There is a number "0" on the test. Teacher Bob wrote on the division quiz, VERY POOR! MUST BE SIGNED BY PARENT!. That is, and in other words, "Brother not only got every problem wrong or cheated. But he also got a great big '0'". In the book, and echoing from it, the actual page reads, "The quiz was a disaster! Not only did Brother get every problem wrong! But Teacher Bob wrote on the paper 'VERY POOR! MUST BE SIGNED BY PARENT!'".]
    Brother Bear: ZERO??
    [After Brother says this, Teacher Bob is concerned. He asks if Brother studied for the division quiz. That is, as he asks Brother...!]
    Teacher Bob: Didn't you do the worksheets I sent home with Sister?
    Brother Bear: Well, I was pretty sick. [tries to talk in between coughs] It took a lot out of me of that flu bug.
    Teacher Bob: Hmm?
    Brother Bear: But I think I'm going to be okay now. And I can't wait to get those worksheets done!
    Teacher Bob: I'm glad to hear that.
    Brother Bear: Well... I guess I better catch the bus.
    Teacher Bob: Oh, one more thing. Please have your parents sign that test and bring it back to me tomorrow.
    Brother Bear: Yes, sir.
    [Brother looks at his test which was about division.]
    Brother Bear: Even the flu is worse than this.
    Mama Bear: How was your day at school?
    Brother Bear: We had a math test today, and...!
    [Brother tries to explain that he had a math test in school today and he got a zero on his test. But he didn't finish what he was saying because Sister starts coughing and sneezing.]
    Sister Bear: I don't feel very well, Mama.
    Mama Bear: Oh, dear. [Sister sneezes]
    Papa Bear I don't like the sound of that.
    Mama Bear You're running a temperature.
    Sister Bear: I think I caught Brother's cold.
    Papa Bear: Yes, that doesn't surprise me. [To Brother] What were you saying, son?
    Brother Bear: Me? Oh, it's nothing really. Sister's more important right now. [To Sister] Here, Sister. I'll carry your stuff inside.
    Sister Bear: Thank you.
    Papa Bear: And I'll carry you.
    Mama Bear: I'll put on some chicken soup.
    [Mama and Papa are unaware that Brother cheated or didn't pass his division quiz. And now, they're trying to take care of Sister.]
    Brother Bear: (PHOOEY!) I JUST WON'T GO TO SCHOOL! AND I WON'T GIVE MY MATH TEST BACK TO MY TEACHER! NOT MY FAULT I WAS SICK!
    [After Brother says this, he takes his division quiz out of his backpack. Then he says...!]
    Brother Bear: PHOOEY ON SCHOOL! PHOOEY ON MATH! PHOOEY ON EVERYTHING!
    [Brother folds his division quiz into a paper airplane and sails it out so neither him nor his family can see it and it lands near an old log.]
    Brother Bear: Oh no! What am I supposed to do now? I can't go to school! And I can't go home!
    [The scene cuts to Gramps and Gran's dining room. Brother is at their table having milk and chocolate chip cookies.]
    Gran: Dear me! This paper has more wrinkles than I do.
    [Gran flattens out the division quiz --which Brother had made into a paper airplane-- and rolls it out with her rolling pin. That is, to get the wrinkles out of the quiz.]
    Gran: Well? I guess that is about the best I can do.
    Brother Bear: It looks much better than it did. [Brother looks at the zero on his test.] But it still has a great big zero on it!
    [By that saying of Brother, the division test is way better than it did. But it still has a big fat "0" on it, in the spite of that.]
    [Mama and Papa look at the division quiz. And they find a great big fat "0" on it.]
    Brother Bear: [shows the zero on his division test] I told you it was pretty bad.
    Papa Bear: [as he's about to sign the division test] Pretty bad? Can it get any worse than zero?
    Gramps: Well, it can get worse when you don't tell your parents and don't get on the school bus.
    Brother Bear: That's for sure.
    Mama Bear: You should have come to us right away.
    Brother Bear: I know, I'm sorry.
    Papa Bear: Well, at least you're coming to us now.
    Cousin Freddy: I had no idea so many gooey gums can fit into one bag.
    Brother Bear: Well, this way I'll have enough to last a while.
    Cousin Freddy: A while? You'll have enough to last until next year.
    Sister Bear: I don't want Dr. Bearson to yank my tooth out with his big yankers!
    Mama Bear Big yankers? Who told you that? [Mama angrily looks at Papa. Papa nods his head no as he didn't tell Sister about the dentist pulling out her teeth with yankers. Then Mama Sister and Papa look at Brother.]
    Brother Bear: I was only kidding. I didn't think she'd believe me. [Chuckles] Sorry, Sister.
    Mama Bear: Dr. Bearson isn't going to yank out your tooth with yankers. [To Sister] Your tooth will fall out on its own.
    Brother Bear: I bet that's a relief. Huh, Sister? Well, I'm going over to Freddy's for a while.
    Mama Bear: [stops him] Not so fast! Sister's loose tooth doesn't explain why you didn't want any oatmeal chewies.
    Papa Bear Yes, you usually eat two or three at a time.
    Brother Bear: I had a little toothache, but it's feeling much... [His tooth starts to hurt.] better now. Ow!
    Mama Bear: How long have you had this toothache?
    Brother Bear: Since this morning when I was eating a gooey gum.
    Mama Bear: More gooey gums?
    Papa Bear: No wonder you have a toothache. They're so sweet that even your truly papa bear wouldn't eat one.
    Mama Bear: I better phone Dr. Bearson and make an appointment right away.
    Mama Bear: You'd better make sure you put your tooth under your pillow tonight.
    Sister Bear: Why?
    Brother Bear: Why? For the tooth fairy of course.
    Sister Bear: No way! This is my first tooth! I'm keeping it!
    [Mama and Brother start laughing]

### The Mighty Milton/Mama's New Job [1.2]

    Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz: [together, chanting, and chorusing a "teasing" comment about Milton] MILTON, MILTON!
    WATCH HIM GO!
    WATCH HIM DRIBBLE OFF HIS TOE!
    Too-Tall: [to Brother] WELL?! LA-DI-DAH! BROTHER BEAR THE PRINCIPAL'S PET IS STICKING UP FOR MASSIVE MILTON!
    Woman 1: These quilts will look fabulous on my cub's bed. How much are you asking for them?
    Woman 2 Excuse me! But I think I saw them first!
    Sister Bear: NO! (YOU CAN'T BUY THESE QUILTS!) MAMA MADE THOSE FOR US! [Sister and Brother both hug the quilts]
    Mama Bear: I'm sorry. But these quilts aren't for sale. I'm just airing them out.
    Mama Bear: I've got a job! I'm going to start my own quilt-making business!
    Papa Bear, Brother Bear and Sister Bear: Huh?!

### Go To School / The Week at Grandma's [1.3]

    Sister Bear: What's this?
    Brother Bear: Things we studied in mathematics. That's long division. It looks a lot harder than it is. It's nothing to worry about.
    Sister Bear: Nothing to worry about? It's just like Too-Tall said! It's too hard!
    Mama Bear: Oh dear, you've worked yourself into a tizzy!
    Sister Bear: Mama, I don't want to go to school! I want to stay home with you! [Hugs Mama.] I can help you make pies!
    Papa Bear: Did somebody say "pie"? I've got the apples peeled and they're ready to go. All I need is someone with pie-making know how.
    Mama Bear: I have an easy recipe for pie. You've followed recipes before, Papa!
    Papa Bear: Oh, but not for pie. Uh, I can't make pies!
    Mama Bear: Well, I've got a photo album to find.
    Brother Bear: Why are you getting the photo album out, Mama?
    Mama Bear: I was just thinking back to when Sister was as worried about going to kindergarten, as she is about going to third grade.
    Sister Bear: I loved kindergarten!
    Mama Bear: Well, yes. Once you got there you did.
    Sister Bear: Miss Honey Bear was really nice, and that's where I met Lizzie, and they had lots of toys, and...
    Mama Bear: [chuckles] Yes, yes. That's right, Sister. But you didn't know all those things before you went, you were very worried.
    Brother Bear: Do you know what a synonym is?
    [Sister mistakes Brother and says "cinnamon"]
    Sister Bear: Uh-huh. It is my favorite spice. Like synonym toast and synonym buns...
    Brother Bear: [Laughs] No, that's" cinnamon". I said "synonym". It's word that's spelled differently, but it means the same thing.
    Sister Bear: [Throws the rake on the ground] I don't want to go to kindergarten, Mama! [Hugs Mama] I want to stay here with you!
    Mama Bear: Sister, I know new things can sometimes be upsetting. But if we don't try them, we don't grow and learn. That's what kindergarten is all about.
    Sister Bear: What if the teacher doesn't like me?
    Mama Bear: Why wouldn't she like you? You're a very likeable cub!
    Brother Bear: Yeah, well most of the time.
    Mama Bear: [Mama angrily turns to Brother for teasing Sister.] I know Miss Honey Bear will be happy [Turns back to Sister] to have you in her kindergarten class.
    Sister Bear: But I can't go tomorrow. I'm too busy.
    Mama Bear: [chuckles] Too busy?
    Sister Bear: I promised Brother I'd make a picture.
    Brother Bear: You can make me a picture at kindergarten, Sister. They've got lots of paint, crayons, and every color you can think of.
    Sister Bear: But I want to hear my storybooks!
    Mama Bear: They have lots of books at kindergarten, too. With stories you haven't heard before.
    Sister Bear: I was going to build something with my blocks.
    Papa Bear: They have enough blocks to build a castle at kindergarten. That was one of Brother's things about school.
    Brother Bear: There's a tub of blocks bigger than you.
    Mama Bear: What do you say, Sister? Can you give kindergarten a try?
    Mama Bear: And so, you went with Brother on the bus for your first day of school.
    Sister Bear: Is it all right if I sit here?
    Lizzy: Uh-huh!
    [When they get to school]
    Miss Honey Bear: Welcome to Bear Country School. My name is Miss Honey Bear, and I'm your new kindergarten teacher! Would you like to come inside and meet your new classmates?
    [When it's time for recess, all the cubs go out to play. Mama Bear comes to school to see how Sister is doing. The cubs who are heading out to recess bump into Mama.]
    Sister Bear: Mama! Why are you here?
    Mama Bear: Oh, I just thought I would stop by to see how you were doing.
    Sister Bear: I'm having fun! Brother was right, they do have lots of paint colors, more than a hundred!
    Mama Bear: [chuckles] Is that right?
    Sister Bear: And they do have a big tub of blocks, just like Papa said. Lizzy and I built a giant castle!
    Mama Bear: Lizzy?
    Sister Bear: Uh-huh! She's my new friend!
    Lizzie: New best friend!
    Mama Bear: Pleased to meet you, Lizzy!
    Lizzie: Hi, we're having recess!
    Mama Bear: And what do you do at recess?
    Sister Bear: [To Lizzy] Do you know?
    Lizzie: This is my first one!
    Mama Bear: [chuckles] I'll help you get started! Come on over to the swings and I'll push you.
    Sister Bear: OK!
    Lizzie: That's a good idea!
(honking)
    Mama Bear: Have fun at school.
    Brother Bear: We will
    Papa Bear: Sister, I thought Teacher Jane might like one of these.
    Sister Bear: [Takes the apple for teacher Jane] Thanks, Papa.
    Brother Bear: Huh?
    Sister Bear: Suitcases?
    Mama Bear: So our reservations for Grizzly Mountain Lodge are all set? Thank you so much, see you soon.
    Brother Bear: Reservations?
    Brother Bear and Sister Bear: We're going on vacation!
    Mama Bear: Well, actually, it's a second honeymoon.
    Brother Bear: Still sounds like fun.
    Sister Bear: Mmmm...especially the honey part.
    Papa Bear: I haven't seen these in ages. I wonder if my serve is still...... [falls to the ground] Ow!
    Brother Bear: Papa, are you okay?
    Sister Bear: Maybe you should just let Brother and me play tennis on the honeymoon.
    Brother Bear: You and Mama can keep score.
    Mama Bear: Sorry, sweeties, but honeymoons aren't for cubs. Honeymoons are special trips that couples go on after they get married. It's an old tradition.
    Papa Bear: Grizzly Mountain Lodge is where Mama and I went on our first honeymoon.
    Brother Bear: But what about us?
    Mama Bear: Well, you're going on a special trip of your own.
    Brother Bear: [gasps] Is it Grizzly World?
    Sister Bear: Is it Honeycomb Amusement Park?
    Mama Bear: You're going to Grandma's.
    Brother Bear and Sister Bear: Gran's?
    Brother Bear: That should do it. Board games, books, my yo-yo. I wonder if I should bring my chemistry set.
    Sister Bear: I'm bringing puzzles, coloring books, and teddy.
    Papa Bear: Beep beep. Coming through! Hey, what's all this doing out here?
    Brother Bear: Well, we are going to Gran's for a whole week. We need to keep busy.
    Mama Bear: [chuckles] Come on, now. You always have fun at Gran's house without all this stuff!
    Brother Bear: When we go for one afternoon, maybe. [whispers to Mama Bear] and Gran and Gramps are old.
    Sister Bear: Maybe they'll want to take naps all day.
    Papa Bear: [grunts]
    Sister Bear: Papa, what about our toys?
    Papa Bear: You won't need all those. You're going to have too much fun with Gran and Gramps. I wonder if the lodge still has canoe rides on the lake.
    Mama Bear: And live music in the dance hall.
    Brother Bear: [sighs] Mama and Papa are going to have all the fun!
    Sister Bear: And we're going to have none!
    [The scene cuts to Gran and Gramp's house. Brother and Sister are upset because they don't want to spend the week at their house.]
    Gran: See you next week! Drive safely!
    Mama Bear: Bye!
    Papa Bear: Have fun!
    Gran: Come on, cubs!

### The Trouble With Pets / The Sitter [1.4]

    Brother Bear: Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
    Sister Bear: A horse?
    Brother Bear: We can ride it to school!
    Papa Bear: Whoa! Nobody said anything about a horse.
    Mama Bear: A horse would need a fenced corral with lots of room to run. Our yard's just too small.
    Papa Bear: And do you know how much a horse eats? More oats than I can afford!
    Sister Bear: I want a pet that's warm and cuddly.
    Brother Bear: If you want something warm and cuddly, you should just get your old blanket.
    Sister Bear: Well, if you want a pet that's cold and slimy, you should get some slime!
    Papa Bear: What's all the commotion about?
    Brother Bear: None of the pets that Sister wants are any fun!
    Sister Bear: All the pets that Brother wants are too weird!
    Brother Bear: They are not!
    Sister Bear: ARE TOO!
    Papa Bear: Now settle down. We'll go to the pet store. Maybe they'll have something you can both agree on.
    Brother Bear: The pet store? Okay.
    [The scene cuts to Mama Papa Sister and Brother in the family car on the way to the pet store]
    Mama Bear: Now remember, cubs...
    Cubs: We know.
    Brother Bear: Nothing that eats bugs.
    Sister Bear: [laughs] Or smells bad.
    Brother Bear: Hey! [Sees Farmer Ben running around.] What's Farmer Ben doing?
    Papa Bear: It looks like his chickens are on the loose. Let's give him a hand. [Papa parks the car so they can see what Farmer Ben is doing]
    Farmer Ben: Come back here! Uh... Heal! Oh boy. Sit!
    Brother Bear: Heal?
    Sister Bear: Sit?
    Papa Bear: Farmer Ben must be trying to train his chickens.
    [A litter of puppies race towards Brother and Sister]
    Brother Bear: Puppies!
    Sister Bear: Aw! They're so cute!
    Farmer Ben: These pups are getting to be quite a handful. I'm going to have to put an ad on the paper to see if I can find them good homes.
    Brother Bear: Can we have one? Please?
    Papa Bear: I don't know.
    Mama Bear: We'll think about it.
    Sister Bear: What do we have to think about?
    Papa Bear: Well, for one thing, there are the vet bills to consider.
    Mama Bear: Not to mention dogtags and licenses. All of that costs money.
    Brother Bear: [hands Mama the puppy] We can save up our allowance money to help pay for it.
    Mama Bear: [the puppy licks Mama] Oh my. It is kind of cute.
    Papa Bear: We'll take it.
    Sister Bear: Yay! We're getting a puppy!
    Brother Bear: Let's call him Prince.
    Farmer Ben: [chuckles] That's a fine name for a boy dog, but I'm afraid the one you're holding is a little lady.
    Sister Bear: Maybe that's what we should call her. Little Lady.
    Brother Bear: Wait until you see your new home! You're really going to like it!
    Sister Bear: What are you doing here?
    Brother Bear: What am I doing here? What are you doing here? You're supposed to be looking after Little Lady.
    Sister Bear: No I'm not! I won the coin toss! Remember?
    Brother Bear: That was for cleaning up her accident.
    Sister Bear: It was for cleaning up her accident and looking after her!
    Brother Bear: No it wasn't.
    Sister Bear: Yes it was!
    Brother Bear: Well, if we aren't looking after her, who is?
    [Little Lady has made a mess in the living room. She's pulling one of her toys from underneath a flower vase. The cubs run home and say...!]
    Sister Bear: No, Lady!
    Brother Bear: Stop! [The flower vase falls on the ground and breaks. The cubs look at the mess Little Lady made.]
    Brother Bear: This isn't good! [Mama and Papa return home]
    Mama Bear: Hello!
    Papa Bear: Hi! [Mama and Papa also look at the mess Little Lady made.]
    Mama Bear: Oh, the sofa!
    Papa Bear: My chair!
    [The scene cuts to outside where it's raining outside. Little Lady is sent to her doghouse as punishment for wrecking the living room.]
    Brother Bear: Maybe we should have asked for a goldfish instead. At least we wouldn't have gotten it into so much trouble.
    Sister Bear: It's not fair to Little Lady. We should be the ones out in the doghouse.
    [Mama and Papa are in the kitchen. Papa is fixing the broken flower vase, and Mama is sewing up a ripped pillow.]
    Papa Bear: This vase is in more pieces than a jigsaw puzzle.
    Mama Bear: What could have gotten Little Lady into doing such a thing?
    Brother Bear: We know what got into her.
    Mama Bear: You do?
    Brother Bear: We weren't exactly looking after her when she got into trouble.
    Papa Bear: You weren't looking after her?
    Sister Bear: She didn't get outside for any exercise all afternoon. Not even a walk.
    Brother Bear: That's why she wrecked the living room. She was only trying to have some fun.
    Mama Bear: Looking after a puppy is a round-the-clock job.
    Papa Bear: It isn't something you can just put off until later when it's more convenient.
    Brother Bear: We're sorry
    Sister Bear: I guess we aren't very good puppy owners.
    Papa Bear: Maybe you can make it up to her.
    Mama Bear: How about giving her a snack when you bring her back in.
    Brother Bear: We can bring her back in the house?
    Sister Bear: You mean it?
    Mama Bear: After hearing what really happened, I think she deserves another chance.

### Too Much TV / Trick or Treat [1.5]

    Papa Bear: What's this? A lovely lady dining alone? May I join you for lunch, Mrs. Bear?
    Mama Bear: Be my guest. The cubs aren't interested.
    Papa Bear: Oh? Where are they?
    Mama Bear: Eating in front of that television. It used to be a treat. But now they do it every day.
    Brother Bear: Give it to me!
    Sister Bear: No way! It's my turn to choose!
    [The scene cuts to the cubs. And they're fighting about what TV programs they should watch.]
    Sister Bear: WE'RE NOT WATCHING "BEAR WRESTLING"!
    Brother Bear: THERE'S NO WAY I'M WATCHING "LITTLE TREEHOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE"!
    Mama Bear: OKAY, THAT'S IT!
    [Brother and Sister jump from their fighting, drop the TV remote, and the TV remote flies out of their hands.]
    Cubs: [screaming]
    [Mama catches the TV remote.]
    Mama Bear: NO MORE TV FOR A WEEK!
    [She turns off the TV with the remote.]
    Brother Bear: What??
    Sister Bear: But, Mama!
    Mama Bear: No, sir. I mean it.
    Sister Bear: Papa, Mama told us that we can't watch TV for a whole week!
    Papa Bear: Your Mama's got a point. You two cubs have been watching far too much television lately. Now, if you don't mind, I'm just going to catch some of the hockey playoffs. Huh?
    [Mama takes the TV remote from Papa.]
    Mama Bear: [turns to Papa] You too, Papa! [then to the rest of her family] For once, the whole family is going to be TV-free!
    Papa Bear: Oh...!
    Brother Bear: Oh...!
    Papa Bear: [sees a wrestling show while in his workshop] Oh! I didn't see that coming!
    Mama Bear: [off-screen] And you didn't see me coming!
    Sister Bear: I think we should end the TV-ban on account of bad weather.
    Mama Bear: Rain or no rain. No TV for a week means no TV for a week.
    Brother Bear: What are we supposed to do for fun?
    Mama Bear: How about cracking open a good book?
    Brother Bear: Okay. [grabs a television guide]
    Mama Bear: That's the television guide.
    Brother Bear: But it's still reading. [looks at the television guide] Oh, guess what movie is on TV tonight!
    Sister Bear: What?
    Brother Bear: Honey, I shrunk the cubs!
    Sister Bear: That's a classic! [To Mama] Mama, you have to let us watch that!
    Mama Bear: I'm sorry, Brother and Sister. But the only way to break the "TV-watching-habit" is to keep the TV off.
    Cubs: Aw!
    Brother Bear: We'll go here, and here.
    Sister Bear: Don't forget this house. They always give out Crispy Squares.
    Brother Bear: Mm-mmm, love those Crispy Squares.
    Mama Bear: What are you cubs up to?
    Brother Bear: It's a trick-or-treat map.
    Sister Bear: We're figuring out which houses to visit tonight.
    Brother Bear: We're going to Farmer Ben's house and then Mrs. Grizzle's; she usually makes special Halloween cookies.
    Sister Bear: And then Teacher Jane's. She gives out good stuff.
    Brother Bear: And we'll go to Dr. Grizzly's house, even though she gives out healthy snacks.
    Sister Bear: Just to be polite.
    Mama Bear: [laughing]
    Sister Bear: And then Gramps and Gran. They always have lots of candy for us.
    Mama Bear: Hmm, it looks like you missed Widder Jones' house.
    Brother Bear: Oh, we did that on purpose.
    Mama Bear: You did? Why?
    Brother Bear: [to Mama; talking about Widder Jones] Because she's a witch!
    Mama Bear: Oh, nonsense! She's very sweet and kindhearted.
    Brother Bear: [Brother and Sister get confused because they think Mama is talking about a different Widder Jones.] Mama, I'm talking about the Widder Jones who lives on Crooked Lane. That Widder Jones.
    Mama Bear: Yes, I know who you mean. We take a quilting class together. She's very friendly and helpful.
    Brother Bear: [whispering to Sister Bear] Until she turns you into a statue.
    Mama Bear: In fact, I saw her at the market today. She's preparing a very special treat for all the trick-or-treaters. And when you get home, I want to hear that you've paid Widder Jones a visit. Remember not to judge someone by their appearance.
    Sister Bear: So are we going there?
    Brother Bear: I guess so. You knock, and I'll wait by the road.
    Sister Bear: No way!
    Skuzz: We're going to put the trick back in Trick or Treating.
    Sister Bear: Mama wouldn't be friends with a witch now, would she?
    Brother Bear: Hmm, I suppose you're right.
    Brother Bear: It’s Too Tall and his gang! They’re not here for the Treats, just the tricks!
    Widder Jones: I understand perfectly! And I am more than happy to oblige. Watch this!
    [Widder Jones pulls a rope, Too-Tall, Smirk and Skuzz pop out of a bush and Vampire bats swarm them.]
    Too Tall: Watch out! Vampire bats! They’re after us!
    Smirk: Aah! Get away!
    Skuzz: Aah! They’re gonna get us!
    All: [Laughing]
    Brother Bear: Wow! That’ll teach them!
    Lizzy: But, they’re still coming back!
    Widder Jones: Maybe they wants some more tricks!
    [Widder Jones pulls another rope, Too-Tall and his gang pop out from behind a tree, as ghosts appear.]
    Too-Tall and his Gang: Ghosts! [screaming].
    All: [Laughing].
    Widder Jones: So, Brother. How would you like to play the final trick!
    Brother Bear: Okay.
    Widder Jones: Just turn this on and watch the fun!
    Brother: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! [Flicks a switch]
    Skuzz: This isn't much fun as I thought it would be!
    [Suddenly, skeletons appear out of nowhere.]
    Too-Tall and his Gang: [screaming].
    Too-Tall: Let’s get out of here!
    All: [laughing].

### The Trouble With Money / The Double Dare [1.6]

    Mama Bear: Sometimes when people are so busy working hard, they can forget about other important things in their lives.
    Papa Bear: Even mamas and papas forget about very important things.
    Brother Bear: I guess I've been too busy.
    Cousin Fred: That's a surprise!
    Sister Bear: Brother, Brother!
    Brother Bear: What's wrong, Sister?
    Sister Bear: Too-Tall and his gang, took my jump rope! I tried to get it back, but they wouldn't give it to me!
    Brother Bear: THREE AGAINST ONE! AND YOU'RE HALF THEIR SIZE! I CAN'T BELIEVE THOSE GUYS!
    Sister Bear: You think you can get it back for me?
    [Brother --angrily-- runs off to the park to find the bullies Too-Tall, Smirk and Skuzz.]
    Brother Bear: [about the bullies] JUST TRY AND STOP ME! (AND THEY BETTER GIVE IT BACK OR ELSE!)
    [He goes off --snarling to himself-- after saying this. And he threatens that he's going to let Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz have it if they don't give Sister back her jump rope. In fact, he thinks about letting Too-Tall and his gang --his two friends Smirk and Skuzz-- have it right now.]
    [Too-Tall --after he and his two friends Smirk and Skuzz had stolen Sister's jump rope-- is jumping with Sister's jump rope. That is, until Brother showed up.]
    Too-Tall: Tell you what, Brother! You want it back? Come and get it!
    Brother Bear: All right! I'll do that!
    [Brother attempts to cross the log bridge over a stream.]
    Skuzz: [to Brother about his attempts to cross the log bridge over the stream] ONE FALSE MOVE AND YOU ARE HAVING A CHILLY SWIM!
    [As Skuzz says this, he says it as if to mean he wouldn't care if Brother had a "chilly swim", caught a cold from it, and got called out sick so he wouldn't have to go to school. All he does care is that he knows Brother might not make it across the log bridge to retrieve Sister's jump rope from Too-Tall.]
    Too-Tall: Look, guys! I think he's chicken!
    [Smirk and Skuzz imitate chickens.]
    Brother Bear: I am not chicken!
    Too-Tall: Then we dare you to cross!
    Brother Bear: You're on!
    [The scene cuts to Brother, Too-Tall, Smirk and Skuzz at a field of sheep.]
    Too-Tall: Get ready, Brother. We're going to take a little shortcut across this field.
    Brother Bear: What's so fun about that?
    [Too-Tall Smirk and Skuzz laugh.]
    Too-Tall: There's a ram in the flock with a bad temper.
    Smirk: With fast legs.
    Skuzz: And big horns.
    Smirk: They don't call him Bruiser for nothing.
    Brother Bear: [chuckles] Maybe I'll take the long way around.
    Too-Tall: That's the chicken route.
    [Smirk and Skuzz imitate chickens.]
    Brother Bear: I told you, I'm not chicken!
    Too-Tall: Then we dare you to take the shortcut!
    Brother Bear: Alright! I'll go!
    Too-Tall: That's what we like to hear!
    [Farmer Ben --unnoticed at first-- uses himself like a scarecrow. Brother Bear and the big cubs --Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz-- think he's a scarecrow --and that there's a real scarecrow in the watermelon patch-- in the spite of that. That is, although they fail to notice him. He uses himself as a scarecrow --having his eyes shut, arms spread out, and feet together. That is, as if there really is a scarecrow in his watermelon patch. So Farmer Ben --striking the pose-- pretends to be a scarecrow. Brother --after picking out the biggest and greenest skinned watermelon-- gets the melon off the vine, breaks the stem off of it, and picks it up. But when he picks up the melon, Farmer Ben moves a little by smiling, opens his eyes, and --offscreen-- undoes his scarecrow pose. Then he --as if returning back to his normal self-- runs up to Brother and catches him.]
    Farmer Ben: GOTCHA!
    [Brother Bear tries to run away --only to be tightly grabbed by Farmer Ben.]
    Brother Bear: HELP! LET ME GO!
    [The scene cuts to Too-Tall and his two friends --Smirk and Skuzz. When they see that Brother's caught by Farmer Ben, they run away.]
    Too-Tall: RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!
    [Too-Tall and his gang run away screaming. Farmer Ben does not notice Too-Tall and his friends --Smirk and Skuzz-- but he talks to Brother about the dee-double dare incident.]
    Farmer Ben: BROTHER BEAR! WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU DOING STEALING WATERMELONS WITH TOO-TALL AND HIS NO GOOD GANG?!
    [As Farmer Ben says this, he wants to know what in the Earth Brother Bear --stealing Too-Tall-- is doing with that watermelon.]
    Brother Bear: First they dared me, then they double dared me, AND FINALLY, THEY DEE DOUBLE DARED ME!
    Farmer Ben: That dee double dare is so hard to resist.
    Brother Bear: I wanted to walk away. But then they called me chicken! I'm sorry, Farmer Ben.
    Farmer Ben: Well, it is okay, Brother. (It is not your fault.) I am not going to call in and tell your parents about this one watermelon stealing mistake.
    [Brother comes back to Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz with a watermelon slice that Farmer Ben gave him.]
    Too-Tall: Brother?! You got away with it! And you got the watermelon.
    Skuzz: Way to go.
    Smirk: You're the man!
    Too-Tall: Come on, we're going to have more fun at the Widder Jones' house.
    Brother Bear: No way.
    Too-Tall: [as he and his gang stops walking] Oh, really? well, I dare you to come with us.
    Brother Bear: Not this time.
    Too-Tall: Okay, then, I double dare you.
    Brother Bear: Nope. Not interested.
    Too-Tall: What the matter? Chicken?
    [Smirk and Skuzz imitate chickens.]
    Brother Bear: I'm not chicken, and I'm not a sheep either.
    Too-Tall: Okay Brother...! I DEE DOUBLE DARE YOU TO COME WITH US TO THE WIDDER JONES'S HOUSE!
    Brother Bear: That stuff may have worked before, but it won't now!
    [But Brother --considering the consequences if he goes-- says "No". That is, after he says this. In the spite of that, he heads back to the treehouse.]
    Brother Bear: See you later. I'm going home.
    [Brother --after saying this-- knows he's going to get in trouble if he listens to Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz and goes to the Widder Jones's house.]
    [Farmer Ben comes rustling through the bushes. He approaches Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz and talks to them about the dee-double dare incident --which they put on Brother-- and going into his watermelon patch. From earlier on, Brother said to Farmer Ben it wasn't his fault he was trying to steal the watermelon from the watermelon patch. He did it because the bullies --Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz-- dee-double dared him to do it. Farmer Ben gets that. So he let Brother off with a warning. Now in the scene, Farmer Ben's talking to Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz about it. That is, as Farmer Ben says...!]
    Farmer Ben: [to Too-Tall and his gang about the watermelon patch] TOO-TALL?!
    [Farmer Ben, he moves on closer to Too-Tall and his two friends Smirk and Skuzz.]
    Farmer Ben: [continues] IF I CATCH YOU OR ANY OF YOUR GANG IN MY WATERMELON PATCH AGAIN, YOUR PARENTS ARE GOING TO HEAR FROM ME! NOW GET ON HOME!
    [By that saying of Farmer Ben, he says to Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz that if he ever catches them in his watermelon patch again, all of their parents are going to hear from him. Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz --when they hear the warning from Farmer Ben-- stand shocked into silence.]
    Smirk: [stammers heavily] We're sorry, Farmer Ben.
    Skuzz: [also stammering heavily] Thank you, Farmer Ben. It'll never happen again.
    Too-Tall: Please don't tell our parents!
    Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz: [all screaming] RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!
    [Too-Tall, Smirk and Skuzz --after hearing the warning-- run away screaming. And they run for their very lives.]
    Farmer Ben: [chuckles] Those cubs make my chickens look tough.
    [Well, in the book, Two-Ton Grizzly --Too-Tall's father-- he crossed paths with Farmer Ben. In the TV adaptation, Farmer Ben came out of the woods and told off Two-Tall and his gang instead of Two-Ton Grizzly. In the book, Farmer Ben called Two Ton Grizzly about what happened. Two Ton angrily told off Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz about the incident. And he --Two-Ton-- said to Too-Tall, "WHAT IS UP IS A LITTLE PHONE CALL I HEARD FROM FARMER BEN ABOUT YOU!". As he turned to the rest of the gang, he added, "AND IF I HEAR ABOUT ANY MORE SHENANIGANS, ALL OF YOUR PARENTS ARE GOING TO HEAR FROM ME! NOW GET ON HOME!". But regarding to the TV adaptation, after Brother left, Farmer Ben confronted the gang. And he told Too-Tall that if he ever caught him or any of his gang in his watermelon patch again, the parents of Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz, they would all hear from him. But both characters --Two-Ton in the book and Farmer Ben in the TV adaptation-- all said to Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz, "NOW GET ON HOME!". Only in the book, it says, "He looked a lot like Too-Tall. But he was much, much bigger. It was Too-Tall's papa Two-Ton Grizzly. 'Wha...? Wha...? What is up, Pop?', asked Too-Tall. 'WELL, WHAT IS UP', growled Two-Ton, 'IT WAS A LITTLE PHONE CALL THAT I HAD FROM FARMER BEN ABOUT YOU!'". The next page reads, "'AND...!', he added as he turned to rest of the gang, '...IF I HEAR ABOUT ANY OTHER SHENANIGANS, ALL YOUR PARENTS ARE GOING TO HEAR FROM ME! NOW GET ON HOME!'". In the book, after Two-Ton --Too Tall's papa-- tells off Smirk and Skuzz --saying their parents are going to hear from him if he hears about any other shenanigans-- he --Two-Ton-- drags Too-Tall back home. And Too-Tall, he was grounded for a week.]

### Out For The Team / Count Their Blessings [1.7]

    Lenny: Wouldn't it be funny if Sister made the team and you didn't?
    [Brother falls into a pond. Sister Lenny and Lizzy rush over to him]
    Sister Bear: Are you okay, Brother?
    Brother Bear: Yes.
    Lenny: Smooth move, Brother!
    Brother Bear: I won't have to worry about ponds, chickens, and baseball-eating goats when I make the Cardinals!
    Lenny: You mean if you make the Cardinals.
    Brother Bear: Why did Sister sign up for baseball tryouts anyway? Why couldn't she be good at something else? Baseball's my game, not hers.
    Sister Bear: Hey! I thought you couldn't lift your arm!
    Brother Bear: Huh? Oh no. It's my left arm that hurts.
    Sister Bear: No it isn't.
    Brother Bear: Yes it is. I should know it's my arm.
    Sister Bear: I'm going to ask Mama. She'll remember.
    Brother Bear: Wait. [Sighs] Okay, I was faking.
    Sister Bear: You were? Why?
    Brother Bear: If you really want to know, It's because i'm afraid you're going to make the team and not me.
    Sister Bear: Do you really think I'm that good?
    Brother Bear: You really improved this season.
    Papa Bear: Well, Mama. It feels good to have raised two star athletes!
    Mama Bear: It sure does, Papa.
    Mama Bear: I know what I'm going to have to listen to when Sister gets home: "Gee, Mama, Lizzie has so many Bearbie dolls. She even has Cruise Ship Bearbie with outfits. Why can't I have more Bearbies than one? And that's just Lizzie."
    Papa Bear: Hmm, talking to yourself, huh? Certainly not a very good sign. You're being silly.
    Mama Bear: [sighs] You're right. I am being silly. But Sister is playing Bearbies with Lizzy again and I know exactly what's going to happen when she gets home.
    Papa Bear: Oh, what's that?
    Mama Bear: It's the same every time. She complains she doesn't have all the things her friends have. With Lizzie, it's Bearbies. With Anna, it's a phone in her bedroom. And Queenie has a TV and a phone in her room.
    Papa Bear: Hey, I don't even have a TV in my room! Hmm. But Sister does have a Bearbie and a whole lot of things her friends don't have.
    Mama Bear: I know, but she just thinks about what she doesn't have.
    Papa Bear: And I suppose it won't be as much different with Brother when he gets home from Cousin Fred's.
    Mama Bear: We'll hear all about the video games Freddy has.
    Papa Bear: Right, but he won't talk about the soccer ball or action figures he does have.
    Mama Bear: Never mind the large pile of comic books up in his room.
    Papa Bear: Nope, he won't mention those at all.
    Mama Bear: Oh, you missed a spot.
    Papa Bear: Hey! How did I end up with this job?
    Papa Bear: Cubs... Cubs... Cubs!
    Mama Bear: Listen to yourselves. All you can do is complain about what you don't have.
    Papa Bear: What about being thankful for all the things you do have?
    Cubs: Huh?
    Mama Bear: It's called counting your blessings.
    Sister Bear: Blessings?
    Brother Bear: Like what?

### The Slumber Party / The Homework Hassle [1.8]

    Queenie: Did I hear you say you're having a slumber party? Can I come?
    Lizzy: Sure you can come. What's one more?
    [Sister arrives to Lizzy's house for her slumber party and rings the doorbell. Lizzy opens the door with a teenage bear named Cindy.]
    Sister Bear: Hi, Lizzy! I... [looks at the Cindy] Who are you?
    Lizzy: Hi, Sister. [introducing Cindy] This is Cindy.
    Cindy: Hello.
    Sister Bear: Did you invite her too?
    Lizzy: No. My mama and papa have gone out tonight. So Cindy is babysitting.
    Sister Bear: [gasps] Does that mean there's no slumber party?!
    Cindy: Mr. and Mrs. Bruin said a slumber party will be okay since it's only a few girls, and I thought it would be fun. We used to have sleepovers all the time when I was a cub. There used to be a lot more giggling than sleeping.
    [The doorbell rings]
    Lizzy: Hi, Stacey, Hi, Karen.
    Stacey: Hello, Lizzy.
    Cindy: Stacey? Karen? I thought you it was Anna and Millie who were coming.
    Lizzy: Anna and Millie.
    Sister Bear: And Stacey and Karen.
    [The doorbell rings again]
    Queenie: Hi, I'm Queenie.
    Cindy: How many girls did you invite?
    [The scene cuts to the living room where the cubs are hanging out]
    Linda: Tag, Gwen! You're it!
    [Linda and Gwen are playing tag, and they bump onto a stool with a picture frame and a clock. They almost fall, but Cindy catches them.]
    Cindy: Please no running in the house.
    Lizzy: Popcorn's ready!
    Queenie: Hmm, pretty good! Have some!
    [Queenie starts throwing popcorn at Lizzy and Lizzy throws the popcorn back]
    Lizzy: Have some more, Queenie!
    Sister Bear: I don't think you should throw that anymore.
    [Lizzy and Queenie throw popcorn at Sister and they start a popcorn fight.]
    Cindy: No throwing!
    [The cubs are having a pillow fight and Millie accidentally knocks over Sister.]
    Sister Bear: Hey! No fair!
    [The cubs look shocked about what happened. Sister smiles regardless and joins in the pillow fight.]
    Sister Bear: Take that!
    Cindy: Please don't hit each other! I know it's in fun, but it is not very....
    [Sister hits Millie with her pillow must ripped and Queenie opens a soda can and it fizzies.]
    Queenie: Uh-oh!
    Stacey: Don't just let it fizz, Queenie!
    [Queenie sprays the soda on Stacey.]
    Queenie: Whoa!
    Stacey: Hey! Stop it!
    [Too-Tall, Smirk and Skuzz burst in]
    Too-Tall: It looks like we arrived just in time! The party's just getting started!
    [The cubs start jumping on the couch, Since Sister realizes it looks so much fun, she decides to join in.]
    Smirk: I love a parade!
    Cindy: Can you please turn the music down?
    Too-Tall: I can't hear you! The music's too loud!
    Cindy: That's what I mean! Turn it down!
    Too-Tall: What?
    Cindy: [Grunts in frustration.]
    [Then she says...!]
    Cindy: [shouts] QUIET!
    [Mr. and Mrs. Bruin arrive home. They're shocked to find out the mess that Too-Tall, Smirk, Skuzz and the girls made. Then they glare at the Sister, Lizzy, the other girls and the bullies. Sister and Lizzy guiltily shrug. And finally, Lizzy's parents from offscreen call the parents of both Sister and the other girls. Not only that, but also the parents of the bullies too. The scene cuts to night. And all the other cubs who attended the party were sent home by their parents. That's including Sister, the other girls, and the bullies. Echoing from the book version, comparable in the TV adaptation, things calmed down pretty quickly after that. The sleepover was cancelled. Parents were called. Lizzy was sent to bed and forbidden from leaving her room for a week and until next Monday. And an angry and disappointed Mama Bear came to take Sister home. The actual page of the actual book reads, "Well, things calmed down quickly after that. The sleepover was cancelled, parents were called, and Lizzy was sent to bed. And a very angry and disappointed Mama Bear came to take Sister home". Now resuming back to the episode, the cubs Sister, the other girls, and the bullies --Too-Tall, Smirk and Skuzz-- are sent home by Lizzy's parents. And they call Sister's parents, the other girls's parents, and the parents of Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz. All the other cubs Lizzy, the other girls, and the bullies --Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz-- all got in trouble. And they were grounded for a week by their mothers. Sister's not the only one who is grounded. In the meantime, the viewers see the mothers of Sister, the other girls, and the bullies --Too-Tall, Smirk and Skuzz-- who attended the sleepover at Lizzy's house scowling at them. As they walk out of Lizzy's house and into the night. Mama says to Sister...!]
    Mama Bear: [scolds Sister for making a mess at the Bruin's house] SISTER, I AM SO ANGRY AND DISAPPOINTED! (AND AFTER ALL THE THINGS I'VE SAID ABOUT PRIVILEGE AND RESPONSIBILITY!)
    [In the book, it says, "'I AM VERY ANGRY AND DISAPPOINTED!', said Mama. 'AND AFTER ALL THE THINGS I SAID ABOUT PRIVILEGE AND RESPONSIBILITY!'". And once again, resume back to the episode. The scene cuts to the treehouse. In this scene, Mama leads Sister into the house. Mama was so disappointed in Sister. As she leads Sister inside, she says...!]
    Mama Bear: [continuing] YOU ARE GROUNDED, YOUNG LADY! ONE DAY IN YOUR ROOM AND ONE FULL WEEK IN THE HOUSE! (YOU SHOULDN'T BE HANGING OUT WITH LIZZY AND THOSE OTHER GIRLS! FROM NOW ON, YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO SEE THOSE FRIENDS! ESPECIALLY NOT FOR SLEEPOVERS! YOU CAN STILL HANG OUT WITH THEM AND GO TO THEIR HOUSES, BUT NO MORE SLEEPOVERS!)
    [After Mama says this, she leads Sister in, and Sister's doubly grounded. It's one day in her room and one full week in the house. She can get back her privileges next Monday. She can only leave the house to go to school while grounded for a week and she can only see her friends during school hours. But she can't leave her room early for a whole week. And by extension, she can never call Lizzy and the other girls for another sleepover again. In fact, she shouldn't really be hanging out with Lizzy and the other girls. She's not allowed to see those friends ever again. That's especially not for sleepovers. She can still go to their houses like Lizzy's house. But she can't have sleepovers. In a full sentence, "She can hang out with them, but no sleepovers". She can still hang out with them, just not sleepovers. Then the scene cuts to Papa in the bear family's living room.]
    Papa Bear: That bad, huh?
    [Well, Sister was sent to her room for one day. That is, one day in her room and until Monday in the house. In the meantime, Mama talks to Papa about Sister's sleepover. Mama after Papa says this turns to Papa and tells him about the Bruin family's living room. It's if he had seen the Bruin family's living room caused by Sister, Lizzy and the other girls. as Mama says...!]
    Mama Bear: [to Papa] You should've seen the place! Popcorn stuck to everything! Juice spills all over the carpet! Furniture knocked this way and that! It was an absolute disgrace! Everything I said about privilege and responsibility, in one year and out the other!
    Papa Bear: Sister does have to share the blame, but it sounds to me like there were quite a few at this slumber party. Hmm, maybe it was one of those situations where one thing led to another and things got out of control. I’m sure it wouldn't have gotten out of hand if the Bruins had been home.
    Mama Bear: If we knew they were going out, we could’ve suggested that Sister attend a sleepover some other time or that the girls have the sleepover here.
    Papa Bear: Hmm, but we didn’t. It was our responsibility to call them. And part of the responsibility that comes with the privilege of having cubs.
    Mama Bear: So we’re partially to blame.
    Papa Bear: I guess both privilege and responsibility go for parents as well as for cubs.
    Sister Bear: [comes out of her room] Mama?
    Mama Bear: (Sister, we already talked about this. I said I didn't want to see you out of your room. But I like to make it up to you.)
    Sister Bear: I know you're really mad. And I know that what I did was wrong. But that's why I need to be not grounded, or maybe just for a little while tomorrow?
    [The girls make it up by cleaning the living room. Sister, Lizzy, and the other girls make it up. As for Too-Tall, Smirk, and Skuzz, they were grounded by their parents. And they were forced to stay in their rooms for one day and in their treehouses until next Monday. They could only leave their houses to go to school and see their friends during school hours. Sister still makes up for it. In the meantime, Mr. and Mrs. Bruin call Sister and the other girls's parents for a clean-up after they caused the vandalism in their living room from the sleepover. Now the scene cuts to Sister, Lizzy and the other girls who are cleaning up Mr. and Mrs. Bruin's vandalized living room.]
    Queenie: This was a good idea for us all to come over and help clean up, Sister.
    Lizzie: Hey, I know! Everyone's doing such a good job, we should make this a clean up party!
    Sister Bear: Let's not, Lizzy. And if you don't mind, I rather not hear the word "party" again for a long time.
    Mama Bear: [echoing the book the episode was based on] If you're a bear who loves TV, loud music, and fun, how are you going to get your homework done?
    [Mama after she finds garbage in Brother's backpack including a brown apple core, a rotten banana peel and a moldy sandwich picks up the letter and reads it. It's a letter from Teacher Bob.]
    Letter from Teacher Bob: I regret to report that Brother Bear has fallen too far behind with his homework.
    Please call me.
    Yours truly,
    Teacher Bob
    Mama Bear: [reads the letter from Teacher Bob] Dear Parent,
    I regret to inform you...!
    [Then she turns to Papa. Papa takes the letter and he reads the letter too. After Mama reads the first part of the letter, Papa--after Mama hands him the letter--reads the rest of it.]
    Papa Bear: [reading the letter] (...that Brother Bear has fallen too far behind in his homework.
    Please call me.
    Yours truly,
    Teacher Bob)
    Mama Bear: [to Papa] It looks like you and I better have a talk with our son.
    [So Brother has been keeping this letter a secret from his parents. That is, even though he's falling behind with his homework. His parents have been reading the report he got from Teacher Bob. The letter reads --from Teacher Bob-- "Dear Parent, I regret to inform you...!". And Mama after she found the letter in Brother's backpack reads the letter. Then she passed it to Papa. And Papa read it too. In the meantime, the scene cuts to Brother who is on the TV and radio, talking to a friend and of course doing his homework. That is, as echoed from the book, "There were school books, paper and a pencil too".]
    Brother Bear: Uh, Freddy, I gotta go. I'll call you later, bye. [hangs up the phone and looks at Papa] Were you saying something, Papa? I wasn't quite reading you.
    Papa Bear: [takes the headphones off Brother] YOU'RE NOT READING MUCH OF ANYTHING, ACCORDING TO THIS LETTER FROM YOUR TEACHER!
    [After Papa says this, he shows Brother the report from Teacher Bob. That is, after he and Mama both have gotten a report from Teacher Bob.]
    Brother Bear: I, uh...
    Papa Bear: [calmly, but firmly] It says here "You've fallen way behind in your homework".
    Sister Bear: Maybe Brother's too busy with other things, like girls.
    Brother Bear: I am not!
    Mama Bear: Sister, that's quite enough.
    Brother Bear: Yes! Go and do your own homework!
    Sister Bear: I'm already done!
    Brother Bear: That's because your homework is easy!
    Sister Bear: IS NOT!
    Brother Bear: IS TOO!
    Mama Bear: Stop that now, both of you. Let's figure out what the problem is.
    Brother Bear: I'll tell you what the problem is: I have too much homework! There's English and math and there's science and history and... Oh...! Every subject for every day until it's coming out of my ears!
    Papa Bear: Is that so? Have you been doing your homework every day?
    Brother Bear: Well... [chuckles] not really.
    Papa Bear: If you did a little bit of homework every day, it wouldn't pile up to a mountain of work. Which is what you have here! (Be done with your homework too fast and you might still fall behind! That is, even if you get an "A" in all your subjects!)
    [Papa Bear means that it would be a problem if Brother doesn't graduate fifth grade. Brother, he in fifth grade this year. And it would be a problem if he's forced to repeat fifth grade twice. Even if he does get an "A" without cheating, he might still be behind. And it only gives him "C's" and "D's" in the school --except gym-- even if he gets an "A". Brother is only getting an "A" because it is homework for just this day he is at school. His previous homework --from all his subjects including English, math, science and history-- has him still behind. And he is getting "C's" and "D's". The reason why he has an "A" in those subjects because this is for just tonight's homework which he is doing. But for his previous homework assignments, he is way behind. He only has an "A" because it is just for tonight's homework. And true to Papa's sentence, Brother might still be behind if he does a little bit of homework every day, is done with his homework too fast and even if he gets an "A" in his subjects.]
    Brother Bear: [Groans in disappointment]
    Mama Bear: I'm afraid Papa's right. There are going to have to be some changes around here (if this continues and you keep failing in school).
    Brother Bear: Like what?
    Papa Bear: Like no more music, no more TV, no more talking on the phone....
    Sister Bear: What about video games, Papa?
    Papa Bear: And no more video games until you get all caught up with your homework!
    [In the book, Papa said, "Well, what is going to happen is that there is not going to be any more Mars space station. No more boom box and no more popcorn. It is up to you and your homework until you are all caught up!".]
    Brother Bear: But you don't understand! That will take forever!
    Papa Bear: Then you better get started! (Even if you get an "A", you might still be behind!)
    [And what's worse is that Brother may get his electronics taken away from him for good if he doesn't graduate fifth grade at Bear Country School and makes it to middle school the first time. Brother, he needs to know that all schools are college prep school. The last time a bear student didn't graduate fifth grade at Bear Country School was about three years ago. And Teacher Bob and Principal Herbert Honeycomb don't want Brother to be the next student.]
    Brother Bear: [Groans in disappointment again]
    Papa Bear: Where are you going?
    Brother Bear: I'm just going outside to see the sunlight and smell the fresh air one last time.
    Brother Bear: And now I can't watch TV or play video games or do anything until I get caught up with my homework.
    Gramps: Hmm. Well, that doesn't sound too unreasonable to me.
    Brother Bear: But Papa doesn't understand! I'm so far behind! I'll never catch up! (Even if a get an A, I'm still behind!)
    Gran: I know that the situation seems terrible right now, but you'll catch up.
    Gramps: You're right. Just like your papa did.
    Brother Bear: What do you mean?
    Gramps: The same thing happened to him when he was a young cub.
    Gran: Of course there was no television back then.
    Brother Bear: No television?
    Gramps: Oh, no. We had a radio instead. (But radio was similar to TV at that time.) In those days you could listen to fantastic stories every evening.
    [By that saying of Gramps, in Papa's childhood era, there was no television back then. He had radio. But radio, it was like TV at that time. And there were radio shows that Papa loved listening to. These children's shows on the radio were around every evening. Gramps continues Papa's "homework story". As he first narrates the line of Papa's "homework" flashback...!]
    Gran: [narrating] Your father loved to listen to the radio while he was doing his homework. And he loved watching his favorite radio shows on the radio like "Jet Bear George of the Space Frontier".
    [Well, Papa got done with his homework too fast. That is, according to Gramps and Gran's story. And he got on the radio to listen to his favorite radio shows. One of the children's shows --that were around on the radio every day-- was "Jet Bear George of the Space Frontier". Each time Papa when he was a cub got done with his homework too fast, he would watch his favorite radio program. And it was "Jet Bear George of the Space Frontier". This indeed was one of the children's shows available on the radio both day and night.]
    Gramps: [narrating] Only, the more interested he became in the radio, the further he fell behind in his schoolwork.
    [Gramps comes in the room and turns the radio off after he and Gran get a report from Papa's teacher. The note --from Papa's teacher-- says that Papa is falling behind with his homework. Papa is falling behind and getting horrible grades in every subject, except physical education.]
    Gramps: [narrating] And I made sure he got it done. I clamped down on him the same way he has been clamping down on you.
    [Cut back to flashback ends]
    Brother Bear: Hmmm, maybe Papa does understand. And I guess I haven't been doing a good job with keeping up on my homework.
    Gramps: Well, the worst thing you can do with homework is put it off until later.
    Gran: That's right. It's called "procrastination".
    Brother Bear: Procrasti... what?
    Gran: Procrastination. That means putting off a job until tomorrow, when you know it should be done today.
    Gramps: That's right. Papa buckled down and did his homework every day. And (even though he lost radio privileges forever and could never use it to watch his favorite shows again) he did his homework and became a much better student.
    [By that saying of Gramps, Papa --despite losing the "radio show" privileges forever-- did his homework and became a much better student. Indeed, he lost the radio show privileges forever, his parents --Gramps and Gran-- took it away from him for good, and he couldn't watch them ever again. That's even in the summer too. But even though he could never again be on the radio --to watch his radio shows-- he improved by always doing his homework. And he became a much better student.]
    Brother Bear: I understand, Gramps. But how am I ever going to get caught up?
    Gramps: Well, you might ask Teacher Bob to give you a catch-up period. I think he should go along with that. He's a pretty good guy.
    Brother Bear: That's a good idea. But the first thing that I must do is go home and get most of it done today.
    Gramps: That's the spirit!
    Brother Bear: If Papa could do it, then so can I.
    [Like how Papa got the radio show privileges taken away for good, Brother might get the TV and video game privileges taken away from him for good too. But in the spite of that, he may become a better student when he does his homework. When he does improve, he may become a better student. Papa --when he was a little kid-- knew that being a better student is much better than being glued to your electronics after you get done with your homework too fast. And Brother might learn that too. Papa when he was a little kid was grounded from using the radio to watch radio shows permanently. For the rest of his childhood, actually. That is, including child, teenager, college, and adulthood. Through adulthood, he could never again be on the radio and watch his favorite radio shows. But in the spite of that, he --despite the fact his parents took away his radio forever-- did his homework and became a much better student.]

### The Talent Show / The Haunted Lighthouse [1.9]

    Teacher Bob: I believe that everyone has a special talent, but sometimes it can take a little help to find out what it is.
    Brother Bear: [to Too-Tall] You want to be in the talent show?
    Cousin Fred: Does having the hairiest knuckles count as a talent?
    Too-Tall: Very funny.
    Brother Bear: Hey! there's something outside!
    Papa Bear: Huh?
    Mama Bear: Huh?
    [They all look outside the window]
    Brother Bear: Really, something was there! I saw it! It was glowing.
    Mama Bear: [laughs] My guess would be it was your glowing imagination.
    Sister Bear: This looks like a job for...
    Brother Bear and Sister Bear: The Bear Detectives.
    Brother Bear: We knew you were special, Captain Salt.
    Sister Bear: You just needed to know it too.
    Captain Saltː I am the ghost of the lighthouse keeper i am...Uh oh.

### The Birthday Boy / The Green-Eyed Monster [1.10]

    Sister Bear: [Little Lady licks Papa's video camera while Sister is using to do a movie about Brother for her school project] Little Lady, no! Hey! No! Stop!
    Lizzie: Maybe you can make a movie about Brother.
    Sister Bear: What's so special about him? He's just a brother.
    Cindy: My dog's a special member in my family. Do dogs count?
    Lizzy: I once saw a horse at the circus that could count.
    Teacher Jane: No dogs or horses.
    Cindy: What about cats?
    Teacher Jane: No dogs cats, horses turtles, frogs, or fish. Only mamas papas sisters brothers or other bears in your family.
    Sister Bear: Mama, I have to do a project for school about a member of my family. I was thinking about making a movie about you or Papa.
    Papa Bear: A movie, huh? That sounds like fun. But we are sort of busy.
    Mama Bear: There's a lot to do before Brother's party tomorrow. Why don't you make your movie about him?
    Sister Bear: Brother?
    Brother Bear: Did somebody call me?
    Papa Bear: Hey, no peeking!
    Brother Bear: Aw! I'm going to Cousin Fred's! See you later!
    Mama Bear: No skateboarding in the house! And be home for dinner!
    Brother Bear: Okay!
    Sister Bear: There's nothing special about him. He's just my brother.
    Mama Bear : You might be surprised.
    Brother Bear: [The next day is Brother's birthday. After singing happy birthday, Brother is opening his gifts.]
    Brother Bear: Wow! A new basketball! Thanks! Nice wrapping job, Papa.
    Sister Bear: Happy birthday Brother!
    Brother Bear: I bet I know what this is! My very favorite movie of all time! Bear Force 1!
    Sister Bear: [Chuckles] Nope.
    Brother Bear: Grizzly Justice?
    Sister Bear: [Sister nods her head no as it's neither of those.] It's called My hero The birthday boy.
    Mama Bear: Why don't we watch it?
    Brother Bear: Uh.. [chuckles nervously] Gee. I really don't know if...
    [Everyone] Show it! Show it! Show it!
    Mama Bear: Showing someone how you feel about them can be the greatest gift of all.
    Papa Bear: And you don't even have to wrap it.
    Brother Bear: You're taking back my present?
    Sister Bear: Just for a little bit. I have to take it to class to show Teacher Jane.
    Brother Bear: Well I don't know what grade you'll get from her, but from me you get an A+.
    Papa Bear: Your car is running, Mr. Bruin.
    Mr. Bruin: Yes, I guess I should be happy it's running at all.
    Mama Bear: No, Mr. Bruin, he means it's running away!
    Mr Bruin: What? [He realizes his car is rolling down hill] Oh no! Not again! Gotta go! I'll pick you up later, Lizzie!
    Lizzie: Okay, bye Papa! [To Sister] Maybe after Brother is finished riding his bike, you can borrow it, and I can ride your bike.
    Sister Bear: Probably not. Brother doesn't let anyone ride his bike. Not even me!
    Brother Bear: [Brother is riding is bike around the front yard but all of a sudden because his bike is outgrowned, he almost falls off his bike. Luckily Papa manages to catch Brother.] WHOA!
    Sister Bear: Is the green-eyed monster still knocking, Papa?
    Papa Bear: Yes, but I'm not going to let him in.
    Green-Eyed Monster: [to Sister] Don't you think it's not fair that Brother gets the pretty bike and you get an old bike?!
    Sister Bear: I did it! [riding on Brother's bicycle] I knew this bike wasn't too big for... [she realizes that she can't reach the pedals because the bike is too big] Uh-oh!

### The Baby Chipmunk / The Wishing Star [1.11]

    Sister Bear: [to Brother about the chipmunk she found] It looks like a little mouse.
    Brother Bear: That's not a mouse, that's a chipmunk.
    Papa Bear: You're right, Brother. And a baby one too. It looks brand new.
    Mama Bear: His eyes are barely open.
    Sister Bear: A little baby! Aw! It's so cute!
    Brother Bear: And so teeny.
    [Sister tries to pet the chipmunk, but Papa stops her]
    Papa Bear: No, Sister. You shouldn't touch him.
    Sister Bear: But I want to take him into the house!
    Papa Bear: Chipmunks belong outdoors, not in the house.
    Sister Bear: But it's just a baby, Papa.
    Papa Bear: All the more reason to leave him outside. He belongs with his mama. We better move away so she can find her baby.
    Sister Bear [sadly] Okay. [to the chipmunk] Bye-bye, baby chipmunk.
    Brother Bear: Come on, Sister!
    Mama Bear: It's going to be dark soon.
    Sister Bear: So can we take the chipmunk inside then?
    Papa Bear: [sternly] Now Sister, remember what I said. Chipmunks belong outside.
    Sister Bear: I know, but he's just a little baby.
    Papa Bear: [looks at the stormy clouds] Well, it does look like it's going to rain. Okay, but only because it's going to rain.
    Sister Bear: Yay! [hugs Papa]
    Papa Bear: And only for tonight.
    Sister Bear: Mama, what do baby chipmunks eat?
    Mama Bear: Like most babies, they milk from their mamas. But since we don't have a mama chipmunk, we're going to have to improvise. Sister, you run upstairs to get one of your doll's baby bottles, [to Brother] And Brother, you find something for the chipmunk to sleep in. I'll fix him something to eat.
    [Mama goes in the kitchen to make something for the chipmunk]
    Mama Bear: [to the chipmunk] How does a little warm milk and honey sound?
    Papa Bear: Delicious! But I thought we were having mapled cured salmon tonight.
    Mama Bear: [laughs] It's for the chipmunk, silly.
    Papa Bear: Well, in that case, milk and honey sounds fine.
    Sister Bear: All Brown Eyes does is eat and sleep.
    Mama Bear: Well, that's what babies do. When they aren't eating and sleeping, ...
    Sister Bear: [giggles] They're sleeping and eating.
    Mama Bear: Exactly.
    Mama Bear: They say the first star you see at night you can make a wish on. That's why it's called the wishing star.
    Papa Bear: It's really amazing how hard work and determination can magically give you what you deserve.

### Get the Gimmies / Lost In A Cave [1.12]

    Mama Bear: [echoing the book the episode was based on] When a cub's behavior takes a turn for the worst, it's hard for parents to know what to do first.
    Sister Bear: Did you bring the shopping list, Papa?
    Papa Bear: [grabs the shopping list out] I got it right here. It's a long one today.
Sister Bear: I hope the new peanut butter and jelly all-in one jar is on the list!
    Brother Bear: And the new purple Catsup!
    [when they get in the store]
    Mama Bear: Now, remember what I told you in the car. We're here to buy groceries, that's all. So no asking for toys and treats. Is that understood? [realizes the cubs have wondered off] Huh?
    Papa Bear: Uh-oh, it looks like we're off to a bad start.
    [The cubs look at the vending machines filled with rainbow gob-busters, spy bear decoder rings and bearbie stickers.]
    Brother Bear: Wow! Rainbow gob-busters!
    Sister Bear: Cool!
    Brother Bear: Check this out, Sister! They have spy bear decoder rings!
    Sister Bear: And bearbie stickers!
    [Mama clears throat]
    Brother Bear: I want one of those rings, Mama.
    Sister Bear: I want some stickers.
    Mama Bear: What did I just tell you on the way here?
    Brother Bear: Uh... Um... Well...
    Sister Bear: I forget.
    Mama Bear: [sighs] That we're not here to buy treats. Now come along. [looks at the donation displays] Why, isn't that nice?
    Papa Bear: Mm-hmm. It's a fine idea.
    Brother Bear: What's a fine idea?
    Mama Bear: The store has put these donation displays here to remind everyone to give to the different charities in our community.
    Papa Bear: You two might think about donating some of the toys you've outgrown to the Sick Cubs Hospital.
    [The cubs look at the candy in the supermarket check out. And they see their favorite treats. Which is the marshmallow chocolate covered bears.]
    Brother Bear: Hey! What's that?
    Sister Bear: Oh!
    Brother Bear: Look! New marshmallow-chocolate bears!
    Sister Bear: Can we have one? Please, please!
    Mama Bear: You know the answer. Now put those back.
    Brother Bear: Okay.
    Sister Bear: Alright.
    Mama Bear: I can see that this shopping trip is going to be the same as all the others.
    [Papa goes over to the candy aisle. And he's about to buy Brother and Sister their favorite treats. The chocolate covered marshmallow bears as he says...!]
    Papa Bear: Marshmallow and chocolate!
    [Mama grabs Papa.]
    [the scene cuts to Mama and Papa in an aisle of jars of honey]
    Papa Bear: Two jars of honey!
    Mama Bear: Two? I only have one on my list.
    Papa Bear: Well, we both go through a lot of honey, honey.
    Mama Bear: You go through a lot of honey, honey. I think one jar is enough.
    Papa Bear: [shows Mama a big jar of honey.] How about this one?
    Mama Bear: Papa!
    Papa Bear: [chuckles] Okay, it's true what they say about grocery shopping. You should never do it on an empty stomach.
    Brother Bear: Wow! Neat! Glow-in-the-dark flyers! This would be lots of fun to play with at night! Can I get it?
    Mama Bear: No! I've told you not more than ten minutes ago that...
    Sister Bear:: [shows Mama and Papa a bouncy apple] Mama? Papa? Can I get this?
    Papa Bear: An apple? Sure.
    Sister Bear: Thanks! [throws the bouncy apple on the ground]
    Papa Bear: Oh, careful now! You'll bruise it!
    Sister Bear: It's not a real apple, Papa. It's bouncy fruit. Neat, huh? They've got bouncy oranges, bouncy pears, and bouncy bananas.
    Brother Bear: Hey, if Sister can have bouncy fruit, then I can have this!
    [Mama takes the toys away from Brother and Sister.]
    Mama Bear: Now listen, you two. It's not your birthday, it's not Christmas, and it's not "Give Your Cubs a Treat" day. So you can (stop goofing off,) put these toys back (and forget about them) right now.
    [True to Mama's saying, Brother and Sister can't buy toys or treats because it's not their birthday or a holiday. It's not a holiday like Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day or Easter. And she makes them put back the toys/treats where they found them, and she makes cubs forget about this "gifts" action until it's their birthday or holidays Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day and Easter.]
    Cubs: Aw!
    Papa Bear: Give Your Cubs a Treat Day? When's that?
    Mama Bear: There's no such thing. But the way Brother and Sister carry on, you think it was every day of the year.
    [the scene cuts to the checkout section , while Brother and Sister go and look at the candy aisle]
    Sister Bear: Mmm, look at all the candy!
    Brother Bear: I know. It's hard to know what to pick. Ask Mama if we can get something.
    Sister Bear: You ask.
    Brother Bear: No, you ask.
    Sister Bear We'll both ask.
    Brother Bear Okay.
    Cubs Mama, can we get something?
    Mama Bear Yes you can. I forgot to pick up scouring pads. Could you hurry over to aisle 3 and get a package?
    Guy: Here you go cubs.
    Brother Bear: These are great!
    Sister Bear: These are cool!
    Papa Bear: Now, just hold on! We didn't come here to buy toys!
    Mama Bear: Papa's right! Remember what I told you about buying toys and treats?
    Brother Bear: But that was when we were getting our groceries. We're finished now.
    Sister Bear: And look at how cute they are! Please, please, please! Can we get one?
    Guy: Oh, come on, folks. Why don't you buy your cubs a treat?
    Sister Bear: Oh, Papa, I'd appreciate it ever, ever so much!
    Woman: Oh, my, she is such an adorable little cub!
    Man: How could you say no to a face like that?
    Papa Bear: But... I... OH! ALL RIGHT!
    Guy: Thank you very much, sir, and have a great day.
    Papa Bear: You’re welcome.
    Brother Bear: Thanks, Papa.
    Sister Bear: Thank you, Papa.
    [When they got home]
    Papa Bear: OF ALL THE OUTRAGEOUS, EMBARRASSING, SHAMEFUL BEHAVIOR! THAT WAS THE WORST CASE OF THE GALLOPING GIMMIES I HAVE EVER SEEN!
    Mama Bear: You're right, Papa. But perhaps it's partly our fault for giving in.
    Papa Bear: WELL, WHAT WE CAN WE DO WITH ALL THOSE STRANGERS STARING AT US? I THINK IT'S TIME WE HAD A TALK WITH OUR CUBS! BROTHER! SISTER!
    Cubs: Yes, Papa?
    Papa Bear: Into the living room, please. It's time for a family meeting.
    [The viewers now see the cubs seeing Papa for a family meeting.]
    Papa Bear: There are more important things in this world than getting as many treats that you can get your hands on. Greedy cubs who only think of themselves can't really be happy. Do you know why?
    Cubs: No!
    Papa Bear: Because you can't have everything you want in life all the time. Do you understand?
    Cubs: Yes!
    Mama Bear: And furthermore, it's good to think of others sometimes instead of just yourselves.
    Brother Bear: Okay.
    Sister Bear: We will.
    Papa Bear: Good.
    [Gramps and Gran arrive to visit]
    Mama Bear: Oh, Gramps and Gran are here!
    '[The cubs gasp in excitement, and they run towards the door to ask Gramps and Gran if they brought them anything]
    Gramps: Hi, there!
    Brother Bear: What did you bring us?
    Sister Bear: Yeah, what did you bring us?
    Papa Bear: [scolds the cubs] I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU TWO! YOU DIDN'T EVEN SAY "HELLO"! THAT'S IT! (YOU TWO ARE GROUNDED!) UP TO YOUR ROOM! [Brother and Sister head upstairs to their room] AND THERE WILL BE NO (TV AND) TREATS FOR A WEEK! A MONTH! A YEAR! (A LUSTRUM! A DECADE! A CENTURY! A MILLENNIUM! YOU CAN ONLY LEAVE THE HOUSE TO GO TO SCHOOL AND THE ONLY TIME YOU CAN HANG OUT WITH YOUR FRIENDS WHILE YOU'RE GROUNDED FROM TV AND TREATS FOR 1,000 YEARS! NOW STAY IN YOUR ROOM BEFORE I EXTEND YOUR GROUNDING TO 2,000 YEARS!)
    [By that saying from Papa, Brother and Sister are grounded from TV and treats for a week, a month, or a year. That is, or possibly a decade, a century, or even a millennium. They're banned from TV and treats for 1,000 whole years. It's one day in their room and one full millennium in the house. They can only leave the house to go to school --while grounded from both TV and treats for 1,000 years-- and can only see their friends during school hours. In the spite of that, they comply and go upstairs to their room before Papa grounds them further, possibly for 2,000 or 3,000 years instead of 1,000. And not just from TV and treats.]
    Gramps: You having a bad day, son?
    Papa Bear: I'm sorry about the unpleasant welcome. But Brother and Sister have had a bad case of the galloping greedy gimmies.
    Mama Bear: The worst case yet.
    Gramps: Worst case, eh? I think I've seen worse.
    Papa Bear: Well, I'm not surprised. They've probably made quite a spectacle of themselves over at your house.
    Gramps: Actually, I was talking about you.
    Papa Bear: Me? I had the gimmies?
    [Brother and Sister are out of their rooms, wondering what Mama, Papa, Gran, and Gramps are talking about.]
    Brother Bear: Papa had the gimmies?
    Gramps: Yep, I'm afraid it's true. But eventually, you turned around.
    Gran: I remember the day it happened.
    Gramps: So do I. It was at old Rufe Grizzly's General Store. (But of course, we didn't have shopping malls or grocery stores back then.) We were buying our groceries (at Rufe's Grizzly's General Store). And (whenever you wanted toys and treats) you got the gimmies.
    Gran: You made such a fuss over a truck that it was downright embarrassing.
    [In the book, Gramps and Gran reveal that in Papa's "cub era", there were no malls or supermarkets at that time. The only store in town was Rufe's Grizzly General Store. And actually, this was the only grocery store around in Papa's "cub era", even though there were no shopping malls or grocery stores back then. The book has Gramps say, "Of course, we didn't have malls or supermarkets at that time".]
    Brother Bear: Like how we fussed about those kitty cats.
    Sister Bear: And embarrassed Papa. (That's why we're grounded for whole millennium!)
    Papa Bear: Well, I'm glad you didn't give in.
    Gramps: Oh, I'm afraid we did.
    Papa Bear: Oh?
    Gramps: You got what you wanted that day. But then, as we were leaving, you noticed a family that barely had enough to put food on the counter. Seeing those folks and how little they had somehow got you to thinking.
    Papa Bear: And I gave that cub my truck! I remember that!
    [Like Brother and Sister, when Papa also had the gimmies on his own grandparents too, his parents grounded him from both radio and treats for about 1,000 or 2,000 years too. He could only leave the house to go to school and see his friends during school hours. After that, he --despite being grounded from it for 1,000 or 2,000 years-- he got rid of the bad case of the greedy gimmies. In the book --unlike the TV adaptation-- Papa --when he was a cub-- was able to decide with one candy or toy --once a year-- whenever he and his parents went to Rufe's Grizzly General Store. And that was it for the day. Then if he came down with the gimmies, his parents cancelled the shopping. And they went home and Papa got nothing.]
    Mama Bear: Oh, I love that story!
    Sister Bear: [out loud] Me too! Oops.
    Brother Bear: We're sorry about how we acted.
    Sister Bear: I wish we could just start this whole day over again.
    [After Sister says this, Brother and Sister try to find a loophole to get back their "TV and treats" privilege. Unaware that they'd just be further grounded, not just from TV and treats. What they want is "another chance" to get it back. Not knowing there are no second chances.]
    Gramps: Well, we can start part of it over again. [to Gran] Step outside, dear.
    Gran: [chuckles] Alright.
    Sister Bear: [to Gramps and Gran] Yes. And if you have brought us something (toys or treats), you can just leave it in the car. Because we're not even going to think about it.
    Papa Bear: You never can tell what a cave is going to be like on the inside, just like from what it looks like on the outside.
    Brother Bear: Look! Wow! Real, live fossils.
    Cousin Fred: Maybe a million years ago they were alive!
    Brother Bear: Things that seem scary really aren't, once you know what they really are.
    Cousin Fred: I know. There's a logical explanation for everything.
    Brother Bear: Exactly! [his voice echoes]
    Papa Bear: Our string path turned into a spaghetti lunch for this goat!

### Too Much Junk Food / Go To Camp [1.13]

    Dr. Grizzly: Exercise is an important part of a healthy lifestyle.
    Papa Bear: [panting] I agree with you, one hundred percent.
    Sister Bear: [panting] Gees, I don't get this tired when I play baseball.
    Brother Bear: Well, you're running much farther than second base, Sis.
    Brother Bear: What about sugar balls.
    Sister Bear: And Choco Chums
    Papa Bear: And Sweetsie Cola.
    Dr. Grizzly: Sweets and goodies don't give you the kind of nourishment your body needs.
    Sister Bear: Are they bad for us?
    Dr. Grizzly: Having treats occasionally is fine. If you have too much, they fill you up and you're not hungry for the healthy foods your body needs.
    Papa Bear: Well cubs, it's time for us to get our trains back on the track.
    Sister Bear: You're right, Papa. [Sister starts chugging and whistling like a train]
    Papa Bear: Whoo-whoo! [looking back toward Brother; chuckles] Get on board, son. Whoo-whoo!
    Brother Bear: I... I think I'll walk. I need the exercise.
    Papa Bear: I have an idea. Let's go home, celebrate by opening up the freezer, and...
    Mama Bear: [cuts him off] Uh-uh-uh, it is far too easy to fall back into the junk food habit.
    Brother Bear: Well, celebrate with carrot sticks.
    Sister Bear: And nuts and raisins.
    Sister Bear: Do you think this sleep-out is a good idea?
    Brother Bear: No.
    Sister Bear: Oh, good.
    Brother Bear: I think it's a great idea!
