Sharon : What's the matter? Who were you talking to?
Janice Robinson : Look!
Sharon : Look at what?
Janice Robinson : It was the chameleon from the store. It bit me again.
Sharon : Chameleon? How did it get here?
Janice Robinson : I don't know. Bite you once, bite you twice, a little water, pay the price.
Sharon : What are you talking about?
Janice Robinson : That's what the kid said and that's what the chameleon said.
Sharon : The chameleon talked?
Janice Robinson : It turned into me. It looked just like me. It was me. Sharon, I think the chameleon wants to be me.
Sharon : Jan, nothing's here. I think you were just dreaming.
Janice Robinson : I wasn't. It was real. It bit me twice and now it's coming after me with water.
Sharon : Tell you what. How about if I sleep in here tonight.
Janice Robinson : I don't know what's going on, Sharon. I'm sorry, I...
Sharon : Shhh! It's okay. In the morning this will all be a bad dream. Okay?
-
Sharon : You're not Janice!
[Evil Chameleon smiles sinisterly]
Sharon : Who are you?
Evil Chameleon : [sarcastically] It's me. I'm Janice. Don't you recognize me?
[reveals herself as the Evil Chameleon]
Sharon : You're the chameleon!
Evil Chameleon : There is nothing you can do. There are thousands of us out here. More of us are changing everyday.
-
Mr. Robinson : Sorry, I couldn't wait.
Sharon : Did you show your mom the rash?
Mrs. Robinson : What rash?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Oh, I thought I had something but it's gone now.
Mrs. Robinson : Well, keep an eye on it.
-
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] You know, Mom. I think you were right.
Mrs. Robinson : About what?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Well, dying my hair blue is dumb and I don't thnk I'm ready to wear a dress like that. It's a little too old for me.
Mrs. Robinson : Great! Why the change of heart?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Well, I decided it wasn't worth fighting over something so dumb.
Sharon : Are you feeling okay?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Sure. I'll call the dress shop right now and have them take it off hold.
Mr. Robinson : [to Mrs. Robinson] See? I told you it was just a phase.
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson to Mr. and Mrs. Robinson] You know, you should really get going. You know how crazy it gets at the flower depot. We'll clean up.
Evil Chameleon : [On the phone] Hello? This is Janice Robinson. I'd like to place an order. Yes, I'll hold.
-
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Will you help me?
Sharon : Sure. What's going on?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Nothing. I did what you said. I got some sleep and everything just felt like it was a bad dream but that's all changed now.
Sharon : [to "Janice" who is really the Evil Chameleon as she was trying to kill the real Janice who was transformed into a chameleon with a frying pan] What are you doing?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Uh, I saw a mouse. I hate mice. Oh, um, Dad has a box of traps. I think we should put them around the house.
Sharon : Jan, are you sure we should do this?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson when the doorbell rings] I'll get it!
[Goes to answer the door and gives the delivery man a dollar tip, taking the box from him]
Evil Chameleon : Thank you.
Delivery Man : You're welcome.
Sharon : You bought the dress after all, didn't you?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] No, I didn't! Oh and don't forget to put a trap in the kitchen.
Sharon : Then what is it?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Nothing!
-
Evil Chameleon : Sharon? Sharon, are you up there?
[switches back to guise of Janice when Mr. and Mrs. Robinson enter]
Mr. Robinson : Hi!
Mrs. Robinson : Hi!
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Hi! That was quick.
Mr. Robinson : Are you kidding? We bought out the whole store.
Mrs. Robinson : And we bought something for you too.
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] You did? What is it?
Mrs. Robinson : Well, it's sort of an apology. We were both wrong and I know it's not the dress you wanted but I hope you like it anyway.
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Oh, it's beautiful! Oh, thank you, Mom. I like it better than the other one.
[to Sharon as she comes downstairs]
Evil Chameleon : What were you doing?
Sharon : I went to get my hairbrush
Mr. Robinson : [to Evil Chameleon in the guise of "Janice"] Why don't you go try on the dress? We're gonna make some health drinks.
[to Sharon and Mrs. Robinson]
Mr. Robinson : Come on, ladies.
Sharon : Mrs. Robinson, don't you think Janice has been acting a little...
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson, wearing the new dress] Ta-da!
Mr. Robinson : Wow! You look fantastic!
Mrs. Robinson : It's perfect!
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] What do you think, Sharon? Is it me?
Sharon : Yeah.
-
Sharon : [to the Evil Chameleon when she rescues the real Janice who was transformed into a chameleon from the garbage disposal] You change her back now!
Evil Chameleon : [Threatens Sharon with a hatchet and comes closer to her] Bite you once, bite you twice, a little water, pay the price! She won't bite me again!
[Switches back to Janice and hides the hatchet when Mr. Robinson enters]
Mr. Robinson : Oh, come on, Jan, we need your opinion.
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] I'll be right out, Dad.
Evil Chameleon : [to Sharon when Mr. Robinson calls for Janice] Go ahead and tell them. They'll think you're crazy.
-
Evil Chameleon : [as she discovers Sharon about to dump the chameleons down the well and chases her away] Stop! I won't let you hurt my family!
Sharon : You're gonna get caught!
Evil Chameleon : You think so? I think people are so dumb they won't find out until it's too late, Don't fight it, Sharon. Just put your hand in there and get it over with.
[One of the chameleons bites her]
Evil Chameleon : Ouch!
Sharon : Bites you once, bites you twice. You should have counted your family and a guest.
Janice Robinson : [When she turns back to herself] Quick grab the hose!
Sharon : Now add water!
Evil Chameleon : No!
[Then, she and Janice spin around in circles]
Janice Robinson : It's me, Sharon!
Evil Chameleon : No, it's me!
Janice Robinson : I'm your best friend!
Evil Chameleon : I'm the one who knows your parents, Bob and Carol.
Janice Robinson : That's right and they're in Hawaii.
Sharon : Janice, I don't know which one is you.
Janice Robinson : Don't spray me! I might turn back into the chameleon.
Evil Chameleon : [Pretending to be Janice Robinson] Wait! I can prove that I'm the real Janice.
[Grabs the box and runs to the well]
Evil Chameleon : Only the real Janice would do this.
[Dumps the chameleons into the well]
Janice Robinson : No, it's a trick!
Evil Chameleon : [Pretending to be Janice Robinson] It's really me, Sharon.
Sharon : A little water, pay the price.
[Mistakenly sprays the REAL Janice, who changes back to a chameleon]
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson, when Sharon sprays the wrong "chameleon"] Kill it!
Sharon : [after she throws the wrong chameleon down the well] It's really you, isn't it?
Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson] Yes! And can you please get me out of this creepy dress?
Sharon : Welcome back, Jan!
[They hug and leave the well]
-
Janice Robinson : I'm gonna take all of my savings and buy the dress myself.
Sharon : They're gonna be ticked.
Janice Robinson : They're not gonna know. I'll sneak out wearing something stupid they'll prove and then I'll change at school.
Sharon : Does it really work sneaking around like that?
Janice Robinson : You don't know what it's like. Parents can be all kinds of things.
Sharon : It's because my parents are never home. They're always working.
Janice Robinson : Well, at least they trust you. Mine still think I need a babysitter. Ow!
Sharon : What happened?
Janice Robinson : I'm sorry. It's my finger. It's probably because of that bite.
Sharon : That doesn't sound too good.
-
Sharon : Are you okay?
Janice Robinson : Yeah. What a strange kid.
Sharon : He knew he was gonna bite you. The little creep.
-
Janice Robinson : [as she and Sharon are petting a bunny] Oh, I love coming here. They're so cute.
Sharon : It's sad though. I want to take one home. Let's get one.
Janice Robinson : No thanks, I'll stick with my fish.
