Quotes
-
Keesha Franklin : Poor Arnold, looks like he's got a hole in his stomach.
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : Not a hole, Keesha, a valve. The doorway to his small intestine!
-
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : In just a few moments, we'll be landing in Arnold's stomach. Thank you for flying Digestion Airways.
-
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : Class, welcome to the esophagus!
Carlos Ramon : The asparagus?
Dorothy Ann : [chuckles] No Carlos, the esophagus. It's where your food goes after you swallow.
-
Dorothy Ann : Hey, why hasn't the gum been digested?
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : A few things are too tough to be broken up and dissolved.
Phoebe Terese : Like - school buses, right?
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : There's only one way to find out.
-
Phoebe Terese : At my old school, we were never allowed to be digested.
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : Never say "never", Pheobe.
Dorothy Ann : [nervously] But according to my research, after chewing comes swallowing!
-
Dorothy Ann : I don't get it. *I* thought we were supposed to answer the question about what happens to the food we eat.
Tim Jamal : Yeah, where *are* we going?
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : Not far class, not far at all. Here we gooooo!
-
Arnold : Ms. Frizzle, no matter what, I'll never miss another field trip. Never-ever, ever, *ever*!
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : Wonderful, Arnold.
Arnold : Starting - right after the next one.
-
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : As I always say, no guts, no digestion!
-
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : As I always say, Ralphie, digested is not delivered.
-
Wanda Li : Man, when it comes to digestion, Arnold *doesn't* mess around.
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : You haven't seen anything yet.
Ralphie Tennelli : [nervously] You mean there's more?
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : Mm-hmm.
Wanda Li : [cheering] All right, Arnold!
-
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : That's the large intestine for you. It removes the water from the leftovers.
-
Phoebe Terese : [the Friz settles back after turning on the auto system] Ms. Frizzle, wha - what're you doing?
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : Time to let Arnold's digestive system do the driving.
Wanda Li : Cool!
[going to the rear window]
Wanda Li : It's like we're driving through a tunnel, but the tunnel's driving us!
Carlos Ramon : Hey Arnold, how about a push?
-
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : [after Wanda enters the large intestine while balancing on Arnold's swallowed gum, the others surround the valve to the large intestine] Ah, she went into the *large* intestine.
Tim Jamal : The large intestine? You mean there's more?
-
Phoebe Terese : [after Carlos rescues Wanda from further bungee jumping on Arnold's swallowed gum down his large intestine] All right, Carlos, you saved her!
Wanda Li : Saved me? I was having a *blast*! Arnold's digestive system is the wildest, scariest, scream-your-lungs-out ride in the world!
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : And it's not over yet.
-
Arnold Perlstein : [to Liz, after burping the bus out, thanks to drinking Wanda's seltzer] Did I break the seltzer chunking record?
[Liz shakes her head]
Arnold Perlstein : I'll never break a record. I'll never win anything. I'll never even get to eat lunch.
Ms. Valerie Frizzle : [appearing back in the classroom with the rest of the class, about to present Arnold's lunch] Did someone say "lunch"?
