  • Pee-wee: [shouts impatiently] All I wanted was a measly sandwich! I very nicely explained that I was starving. I'm starving! PLEASE!
  • Mr. Ryan: [defeatedly] Sorry, ladies. I guess you'll just have to wait. You remember, no one is as important in this community as Pee-wee Herman. All you other shoppers will just have to play second fiddle to Pee-wee. I guess that's just the way things are around here. My whole purpose in life is to serve Pee-wee Herman. And everything else comes second!
  • [finishes Pee-wee's sandwich]
  • Mr. Ryan: There's your sandwich. Is there anything else I can do for you, Pee-wee?
  • Pee-wee: Well, I would like a pickle if it's not too much trouble.
  • Mr. Ryan: No! No trouble at all, Pee-wee. Sorry, Otis. Sorry, Deke.
  • [opens a barrel, knocking over Otis and Deke's chess board; extracts a pickle and hands it to Pee-wee]
  • Mr. Ryan: Game's over. Pee-wee Herman wants a pickle. Here. Here's your darned pickle. Are you happy now?
  • Pee-wee: Mmm-hmm.
  • Vance: So how was lunch?
  • Pee-wee: Fine, let's go get something to eat.
  • Winnie: [witnessing Pee-Wee and Gina sharing a long kiss] Pee-Wee!
  • Gina Piccolapupula: Who is that?
  • Pee-wee: Her? Oh, she's my fiancée.
  • [Gina slaps Pee-Wee and takes off]
  • Vance: We do not want to end up with a low potassium level.
  • Pee-wee: Duh, Vance! You'd think I never went to agricultural junior college!
  • Pee-wee: I call it... the hot dog tree, because... it's a hot dog tree.
  • Pee-wee: [singing] Pee-wee Herman had a farm, E-I-E-I-O!
  • Pee-wee: [children are staring at them] Why don't you take a picture? It'll last longer!
  • School children: [whip out cameras, flashbulbs go off]
  • Pee-wee: Ahh! Paparazzi!
  • [poses suggestively]
  • Pee-wee: Good morning, Vance!
  • Vance: Morning, Pee Wee.

  • Vance: My, we are certainly in a good mood this morning.
  • Pee-wee: That, my dear Vance, is the understatement of the year. Everything seems completely different to me today. The air smells so fresh. The sky seems a brand-new shade of blue. I don't think I've ever noticed the beauty of this leaf. And Vance! Have you always been so handsome?
  • Vance: What the...
  • Pee-wee: [milks cow]
  • [tastes milk]
