Short Circuit:

  • How quickly Stephanie decides that Number 5 was an alien and how quickly she accepts the idea of being visited by the "alien" was rather amusing.
  • Howard, scared about what the malfunctioning Number 5 might do, makes this comment:

 Howard: What if it decides to melt down a bus full of nuns? How would you write the headline on that?!

Ben: Nun soup?

  • Ben is generally pretty good for these. When Crosby was taking No. 2 (without permission) on his hunt for No. 5, Howard started freaking out some more.

 Howard: Great! So instead of $11 million on the loose, we're going to have twenty-two!

Ben: Plus we are needing gas money.

 "I am standing here beside myself." (I am beside myself)

"So now I am having no job to speak about. I will have to smack the sidewalk." (I have no job to speak of. I will have to pound the pavement)

"I have seen some strange, bizarre drivers, but you. You will be awarded a cake." (I have see some strange, bizarre drivers, but you take the cake)

"Bimbo!" (Bingo)

"With excitement like this, who is needing enemas?"

"Newton, we are wasting valueless time here!"

  • And this great line:

 Newton: "So what do you think of her?"

Ben: "I am thinking she is a wirgin. Or at least used to be one."

  • And this one:

 Newton: "Where are you from, anyway?"

Ben: "Bakersfield, originally."

Newton: "No, I mean your ancestors."

Ben: "Oh, dem. Pittsburgh."

  • Just Ben in general.

 "Bye-bye, goofy woman. I enjoyed repeatedly throwing you to the ground."

Short Circuit 2:

  • Fred tries explaining that he didn't "lose" Johnny Five. He just "misplaced him, y'know? Like your car keys."

 Ben: "HOW ARE YOU MISPLACING A 700 POUND CAR KEY?!"

  • The moment that Number Five/Johnny Five discovered the bookstore and begins heading towards it excitedly. By the time Fred catches back up to him, it looks like a tornado erupted inside the building.
