Quotes 

  • Dr. Terminus : I hate Pa - pa - Pastahazootie, or whatever the name of this town is.

    Hoagy : Quoddy.

    Dr. Terminus : Yeah. I don't want to cure anybody here. They all deserve to have whatever they have.

  • Dr. Terminus : [talking to the Gogans after Elliott crashed their boat and they fell into the water and now they're sick]  Excuse me folks, I witnessed what happened today and I'm completely sympathetic with you.

    Grover : [offensively]  What's "sympathetic" mean?

  • Pete : I can't sell you Elliot. I don't own him.

    Hoagy : Well what did you do, rent him?

    Dr. Terminus : Well who owns him?

    Pete : Well, nobody, I guess. He just came to me. He only goes to those who need him.

    Dr. Terminus : *I* need him!

    Nora : Listen Doc, I don't know what you're up to but you better forget about this. He's not for sale.

    Dr. Terminus : [passing Pete's brush over to Nora]  Nora, go paint your lighthouse. Pete, my boy, you're conversant with Elliot! Now talk to him. Tell him how much I need him! Look, deliver Elliot to me the fiver is yours, plus a bottle of my medicine that's guaranteed to bring on puberty two years ahead of time. And that's better than a dragon!

  • Dr. Terminus : Why do I hear a bell ringing?

    Hoagy : School must be out.

    Dr. Terminus : It's too early, stupid.

  • Hoagy : [trying to tell Dr. Terminus about seeing Elliott for the first time] 

    [stutters scarily] 

    Hoagy : El- El- Dra- Dra...

    Dr. Terminus : What is an "El- El-, Dra- Dra-"?

  • Dr. Terminus : [explaining the plan to capture Elliott to Hoagy]  Got it?

    Hoagy : Got it. What I don't got is, how are you gonna get that monster, that hideous beast, that nightmare sent by the devil to come here?

    Dr. Terminus : Easy, we get someone he knows to bring him here.

    Hoagy : Who'd be crazy enough to do that?

    [Dr. Terminus stares at Hoagy] 

    Hoagy : [screams]  NOOOOO! NOOOOOO!

    Dr. Terminus : He knows you, he trusts you!

    Hoagy : He scares me! He hates ME!

  • Dr. Terminus : [learning of Elliot's existence]  Do you think this kid Pete would sell it?

    Hoagy : Money talks.

    Dr. Terminus : First there's a dragon, now he tells me money talks. Will miracles never cease?
