* **Mister-Jaw:** Come in, Brown.
* **Charlie Brown:** Jaws, can I leave?
* **Mister-Jaw:** Why?
* **Charlie Brown:** I can't tell you.
* **Mister-Jaw:** Why ever not?
* **Charlie Brown:** I just can't. My physical being is at stake, let's just leave it at that.
* **Mister-Jaw:** Charlie Brown, you can tell me anything. You've got to believe that.
* **Charlie Brown:** Well, okay. But only if you promise to keep it between us.
* **Mister-Jaw:** Of course.
* **Charlie Brown:** When is the game going to start?
* **Mister-Jaw:** What? There shall be no butt-kicking in any class of mine! This is an adult program. Charlie Brown, just leave it to me.
* **Charlie Brown:** Aw, thanks Jaws. I knew I could count on you.
* *[at the field]*
* **Lucy:** Charlie Brown, I am never going to pull away my football at all! You see Charlie Brown, I want to be your friend. Not a Blockhead. *[Violet who is wearing a GI kicks a football]* And maybe play some sports with you on weekends.
* **Charlie Brown:** I've gotta run! *[runs on the whole track until he takes a turn]*
* **Marcie:** Huh? Where's Charles?
* **Lucy:** He left the track. He also wore speed shoes.
* **Shrek:** Okay, see, He didn't know where else to turn! Donkey couldn't help me, and Mister-Jaw only made it worse. And I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but he wants to have a massive slime beach party.
* **Marcie:** Sir?
* **Charlie Brown:** *[running]* Out of my way! Out of my way! *[points]* Can't you see?! *[Bully #1 look over to Granny at a bus stop]*
* **Granny:** Hi there, nice day today.
* **Bully #1:** So, you like kicking footballs, do ya? Well we'll show you, old lady! *[Charlie Brown is hiding in a garbage can]*
* **Charlie Brown:** Okay, okay, I got to skip town, start a new life, live under an assumed name! "Charli XCX". Yeah, that's good. Grow a beard, and then shave it off, and live happily ever after. *[Bully #2 is behind him driving a motorcycle]*
* **Bully #2:** Yeah, except you forgot the part where I Pull away your Football! *[Laughs. Charlie Brown gasps three times and runs off while still in the garbage can. As he is running down the road, trash falls out of the garbage can, including a banana peel. Bully #2 screams when he sees the banana peel on the ground. When the motorcycle runs over the peel, it goes out of control]*
* *[Later]*
* **Bully #3:** Hey, you feeling better?
* **Brutus:** Where is he?
* **Charlie Brown:** *[screaming and running]* Run! *[Granny and Fabulous Freddie are mad at Bully #1]*
* **Bully #1:** How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old lady!?
* **Granny:** *[Granny Hits Bully #1 with her Umbrella]* You Putty Tat! *[Freddy and Granny walk off. Cut to Charlie Brown running]*
* **Bully #3:** Oh Brutus, Charlie Brown is coming! Hope I Pull it away!
* **Brutus:** Oh, Charlie Brown is here!
* **Charlie Brown:** Here I Come! *[Slow-Motion. Just as Charlie Brown kicks the football, Bully #3 pulls it away, sending Charlie Brown Screaming and Flying. He Lands on Big Nose's Pool. When They Reach Underwater, Big Nose Shouts at him to get out of the pool. Charlie Brown comes out of the pool very horrified]* Good Grief. *[Bully #3 and Brutus laugh at him]*
* **Bully #3:** You're a Blockhead Failure. Get him! *[Brutus chases Charlie Brown]*
* **Violet:** Oh you Blockhead!
* **Lucy:** **You are in SO MUCH TROUBLE.** *[Lucy slaps Bully #3 and brings him handcuffs]*
* **Bully #3:** *[sigh]*
* **Charlie Brown:** *[in his bed]* Don't answer. *[A Knock on the door is heard]* I said don't answer. *[The Knock is heard again]* Didn't you hear me? I said don't answer. *[Peppermint Patty opens the door]* Hello.
* **Peppermint Patty:** Chuck, I'm signing you in to Karate! Do you known what that means? *[cut to next day where Charlie Brown is in a field, wearing a GI, and kicking a football. Then the scene cuts to him playing cards with Snoopy, riding a bike, climbing a ladder, carrying baskets of rocks on both hands, sleeping, and eating breakfast. Cut to the tree where Peppermint Patty and Charlie Brown are sitting]* Chuck, how is it going?
* **Charlie Brown:** I'm gonna have a daily routine
