-
Diane : There's one thing every little kid knows. Daddies mean fun; mommies mean business.
-
Diane : I don't understand any of this.
Wayne : Around every electrical operating device, there's a flux. Like an electromagnetic force field.
Clifford Sterling : That's what's causing the baby to grow.
Marshall Brooks : Would this electromagnetic... would it surround neon lights too?
Wayne : Yeah, why?
Marshall Brooks : Your kid. He's heading toward Las Vegas.
Diane , Wayne , Clifford Sterling : Uh-oh.

[Diane has grown to giant size and catches Charles Hendrickson in a helicopter menacing Adam with a tranquilizer gun]
Diane : [to Charles] BACK OFF!
-
Diane : [smiles] Sweetheart, you can tell me. How bad can it be?
[kisses him]
Diane : After all, it's not like you did something to one of the kids again.
[Wayne goes nervous then chuckles]
Diane : [frowns] Wayne, where is Adam?
Wayne : Well, uh...
Diane : [raises her voice] Who is that man in the van? And where did this bunny come from!
Wayne : Alright, I confess, I did it!
Diane : Did what?
Adam : [comes on before her eyes] PEEKABOO!
[Adam knocks on the door]
Wayne : I blew up the baby!
[Diane faints]
Adam : Mama fall down! Mama!
Nick : [appears from behind Adam] How'd she take it?
Wayne : About like usual.
Adam : Mama sleeping?

Dr. Charles Hendrickson : [after Adam is back to normal size, to Wayne] Well, Szalinski, you pulled it off. Who would have thought?
Diane : Dr. Hendrickson, that looked like some sort of rifle that you were shooting at my baby.
Dr. Charles Hendrickson : They were tranquilizer cartridges. They wouldn't have hurt him, I assure you.
Diane : Oh...
[turns to Wayne and Clifford]
Diane : [does not buy it] Tranquilizer cartridges.
[Diane slugs Charles knocking him unconscious making him fall on the street]
Wayne : [to Adam] Never cross Mommy.
Clifford Sterling : We got an emergency here! Dr. Hendrickson needs help. He's overcome with the prospect of having to find a new career.
-
Diane : Why are you closing the shutters?
Wayne : So one of the neighbors doesn't look in, see a 7 foot baby, and call the National Enquirer.
Adam Szalinski : [hears the doorbell ringing] Doorbell!
Diane : Who's that?
Wayne : One of the neighbors.
Diane : [sarcastically] So far your plan has been working perfectly.
-
Wayne : Mr. Sterling, sir, I can return my son back to normal!
Clifford Sterling : You can?
Dr. Charles Hendrickson : With what, Szalinski? Coca Cola bottles? Perhaps some chewing gum and twine?
Diane : Just who do you think you are talking to him like that?
Wayne : Diane, let me handle this. Who do you think you are talking to me like that?

[Wayne has said the word nap]
Diane : Honey, we don't say the n-word around 2-year-olds!
-
[Diane grabs a megaphone]
Diane : Adam Szalinski... this is your mommy talking... YOU STOP RIGHT NOW
[Adam keeps walking]
Clifford Sterling : That wouldn't do any good Mrs Szalinski... surely he expects his mommy to be bigger than he is... to him, you're just... well you're nothing more than a talking doll

[Wayne drives Nick and Adam back home looking worried after failing to return Adam to normal]
Nick : [about Dr. Hendrickson] Why didn't you tell him, dad? I mean, at least then they'd know that you were able to make it work when nobody else could.
Wayne : [sternly] Look, Nick, remember we made you kids promise never, ever to tell anyone you were accidentally shrunk and lost for two days?
Nick : Yeah.
Wayne : That's because we didn't want you guys to become specimens, to undergo countless tests, to go through endless observations and who knows what else!
Nick : What about Adam? What are we going to do?
Wayne : I don't know. What I do know is... we got to figure out some way fix this before your mother gets home.
[as they pull into the driveway, they see that Diane is already home]
Diane : [waves] Hi, guys, I'm home!
[Wayne goes stunned as she sees her holding Adam's big bunny]
Diane : Where'd this come from?
[Wayne immediately drives away almost hitting a car]
