- Ben Rogers: It just don't make sense keeping Tom in bed so long. Is he real sick?
- Huckleberry Finn: Nah, he's fine. I can understand the Thatchers puttin' Becky to bed like she is real sick, her bein' a girl, but that ain't no reason for Aunt Polly to treat Tom that way.
- Becky Thatcher: [Tom ran into Indian Joe while trying to find a way out of the cave] Did I hear a shout, Tom?
- Tom Sawyer: [out of breath] Yeah, but that was only me yelling, for good luck. It didn't do any good, though. Come on, let's try another cave.
