 * When E.T. falls into the bath tub... He doesn't drown of course.

 * Big brother Michael needs to get his priorities straight.

"Elliott: Michael, he came back.
 * Personally I loved the whole "Most Excellent Promise" scene.

Michael: (feigning shock) He came back? He came back? (pretends to be attacked) Oh, my God!

Elliott: One thing. I have absolute power. Say it. Say it!

Michael: What have you got? Is it the coyote?

Elliott: No. Look. O.K. Now, swear it. The most excellent promise you can make. Swear as my only brother on our lives!

Michael: Don't get so heavy. I swear.

Elliott: Okay, stand over there. And you'd better take off your shoulder pads.

Michael: WHAT?!

Elliott: You might scare him. And close your eyes.

Michael: Don't push it, Elliott.

Elliott: I'm not coming out until your eyes are closed.

Michael: Okay, they're closed. Mom is going to kill you. Eeeeghh!

Elliott: Okay, swear it one more time.

Michael: (as Yoda) Absolute power you have! Eerrp!"
