Schemer Goes Camping (1993)

Didi Conn: Stacy Jones

Quotes 

• Schemer : [finishing an announcement into the megaphone which happens to be pointed toward Stacy]  THANK YOU!

  Stacy Jones : [he turns around and she picks up so it's pointing toward his ear]  YOU'RE WELCOME!

• Stacy Jones : [when the tent is set down the rope he is holding onto causes him to fly across the room at an angle from it]  Mr. Conductor, are you all right?

  Mr. Conductor : [turning around where he landed on the information-desk]  I'm fine. But next time I put up a tent, I'll fasten my seatbelt.

• Stacy Jones : Mr. Conductor, have you ever played the Building-a-Story game?

  Mr. Conductor : Well, maybe you'd better tell me how to play it. That way, I'll be able to get the whole story.

  Stacy Jones : OK, I'll start. Ooh, the best way to start on a camping-trip is with something... spooky. OK. It was a dark and stormy night.

  [thunder cracks from outside and she shivers] 

  Stacy Jones : Then, um, the ship was lost at sea. Kara?

  Kara : The ship hit a big rock, and water started rushing in.

  Becky : The boat started to sink, but before it did, the captain jumped into the dark, dark water. Your turn, Mr. Conductor... Mr. Conductor?

  Mr. Conductor : [with his eyes covered]  Is it over yet? I can't look.

• Becky : Schemer tried to staple the tent to a tree?

  Dan Jones : Yeah. We told him not to. Anyway, see - Schemer sent me back here to get more staples! And then he and Schemee went straight back into the tent, and then into the woods!

  Stacy Jones : Oh, no; I hope they'll be all right.

  Mr. Conductor : So do I. But you know, it does remind me of the time where Percy wouldn't listen, and he got drenched too.

  Dan Jones : I bet Percy wasn't camping with Scout-Sergeant Schemer.

  Mr. Conductor : No. But it was almost as bad.

• Schemee : He was screaming really loud, especially when he fell off the hill into the creek.

  Stacy Jones : Well, what did you do?

  Schemee : I was hungry so I came here.

  Stacy Jones : You left your uncle at the bottom of a hill in a creek?

  Schemee : Hey, I was hungry; he ate all our food.

  Stacy Jones : Well, how do you know that he's all right?

  Schemee : I know he's OK because I heard him screaming for help.

  Stacy Jones : Schemee, when someone needs help you do everything in the world you can to help that person; didn't you even think of going for help?

  Schemee : Hey, I'm here, aren't I? Pass the marshmallows, Becky.

• Stacy Jones : [trying to cheer up Schemer]  And who else would do all this for the sake of camping?

• Stacy Jones : Oh, Schemer, how could you be a failure? At least you keep on trying, you know.
