The Helmet


 * When's someone gonna invent a TV that flips its own channels?
 * Hey honey, how was work? Is dinner ready yet?
 * Hey, mom, dad, guess what? I got a B plus in home-ec today! Miss Simian said my soufflé was divine.
 * Yeah, that's very interesting.
 * I also learned how to do a cartwheel. You guys wanna see?
 * Yeah, yeah. I'm very proud of you son.
 * I also crashed your car on the run from the police after I robbed a bank.
 * Uh huh, good for you.
 * Ah! My leg! It's broken! I probably need to get it cut off! Ahaaa! And yet nobody cares. What do I have to do to get noticed in this house!?
 * What? Richard I think Gumball needs some attention. Maybe you should go and play catch-
 * Yeah, yeah. We're all very proud of you Nicole.
 * What?
 * Listen honey, I'm sorry you've not been getting enough attention lately. I'm going to make it up to you starting tomorrow.
 * Why not now!?
 * Yeah, yeah. We're all very proud of you Nicole.
 * What?
 * Listen honey, I'm sorry you've not been getting enough attention lately. I'm going to make it up to you starting tomorrow.
 * Why not now!?
 * Listen honey, I'm sorry you've not been getting enough attention lately. I'm going to make it up to you starting tomorrow.

Gumball's Difficult Relationships

 * So, um, Penny, want to hang out after school? I'll show you my cartwheel.
 * I've seen it... it's not as good as it sounds.
 * Sorry, Gumball. It's the cheerleader tryouts tonight, I've been practicing all year for this. Another time though.
 * OK, no problem. I love you Penny.
 * What!?
 * Wha, oh nothing. It's just that I love peanuts. They, um, they taste so good.
 * Gumball, I am a peanut. That's like me saying I like to eat cats. Maybe you should think twice about the things you say.
 * But I did think twice.
 * Well maybe you need think three times. Anyway, see you later.
 * Wait, I didn't say peanuts, I said ponies! I love ponies! They taste like nuts! Aw, whatever.
 * Maybe you need to talk with your mouth shut.
 * Is that really the way you talk to girls?
 * Mom, what are you doing here?
 * Well you said you wanted more attention so I followed you to school. But by the looks of it you need more than attention; you need serious help, little man.
 * Mom, what are you doing here?
 * Well you said you wanted more attention so I followed you to school. But by the looks of it you need more than attention; you need serious help, little man.

Nicole's Time at Elmore Junior High

 * Aw mom, if you are seriously going to follow us around all day, do you really need to hold my hand?
 * Yes.
 * Yay! Mom's at school!
 * And it's not all day, it's all week. I took the night shift.
 * Hey, Mom, do you need a diaper for that baby?
 * Ooh, actually I'm fully potty trained, so check your facts all right?
 * You know you got them good when their voices go high.
 * Gumball! Are you really going to take that?
 * She just owned you.
 * What? You got a better idea?
 * Well, first of all, drop an octave, then give her a taste of her own medicine. Try this.
 * Uh, Tina? I just like to say that maybe you only bully people because you're insecure about your walnut-size brain and the fact that you smell like a sweaty butcher.
 * Oh, I'll have you know that smell is a glandular problem!
 * Glandular.
 * Wow, it actually worked!
 * Yeah, that was funny! But good luck when Tina comes back and your mom's not around to hold your hand.
 * Don't worry, Gummypuss! I'll hold your hand until college, if I have to!
 * Gummypuss!
 * Aw Mom, stop embarrassing me!
 * Ah, it burns! My eyes! What was that?!
 * Uh, I don't know!? Paint?
 * AH! My hair! What was that?!
 * Uh, uh chlorine from the pool?
 * DAAH! What was that?!
 * Uh, Fertilizer?
 * Ah, uh. I guess it's alright then. But that's still 2 hours of detention, for potentially damaging my beautiful face!
 * Really... Principal Brown. You need to be firmer than that!
 * Huh?
 * Oh okay. 4 hours detention!
 * 8 hours?
 * Oh, good! See you in detention, Watterson.
 * Mom, you're not helping.
 * The nerds think you look like a dodeca-dork with your mother at school.
 * What does that mean?
 * It's a twelve-sided dork honey.
 * Mom, you're not helping.
 * Mom! You're not helping!!
 * Who-Whooo! Come on honey open the tunnel for the choo-choo train. Whoo-Whoooo-
 * MOM your not helpi- Enough!!! The Tina thing was kind of helpful, but this has gone too far.  Wait a minute, I've-  Thanks, but seriously, I need you to stop meddling with my life!
 * I'm not meddling, I'm helping.
 * Helping by meddling! You're just a big meddler.
 * I'm not a meddler, I'm your mother.
 * And a meddler.
 * Hey, isn't that girl you like?
 * MOM NOO!!!!
 * Excuse me Penny, do you have a second?
 * Sure, but you guys have to be quick. The cheerleader tryouts are about to start.
 * Mom... if you love me, please don't do this.
 * Oh come on Gummypuss, don't be shy. My baby has something to say to you.
 * No I don't.
 * He'd like to take you out on a date.
 * That's not true.
 * He loves you.
 * Really?
 * NO I DON'T. I DON'T LOVE PENNY AND I NEVER WILL!!!!!
 * Gumball!
 * Well thanks for being honest with me.
 * No, wait! I meant I'll never love peanut- NO! PONIES! UH- See what you did? You upset Penny! How am I suppose to get her back?!
 * Well, you know I could help you with that.
 * No, that's enough! Okay? That's enough! I'm my own man now! I make my own decisions, and I don't you babying me anymor- anymor-  Thanks. Now just go home okay?
 * Oh come on, we all had a great time! Didn't we Darwin?
 * To be honest, I've never been so embarrassed in my entire life!
 * Why are you smiling then?
 * Well at first I was trying not to hurt your feelings, but now I'm just stuck!
 * I beg of you, just get out of my life.
 * Okay, I guess I'll just go home now.
 * MOM! YOU'VE GOT TO COME BACK! I MADE MY OWN DECISION, AND IT'S A BAD ONE! A REALLY, REALLY, BAD ONE!

Bad Decisions

 * Oh, thank goodness she's gone! I'll never smile again!
 * Darwin!
 * Mom, you're back! Yay.
 * Do you know where your brother is?
 * In the changing room!
 * Thanks!
 * Gumball? It's me. Open the door.
 * NO! NO I WON'T!
 * What happened?
 * I thought for a... I made a decision in my life and I didn't know that it was bad!
 * Listen, whatever it is you've done, you need to come out and face it.
 * Alright.. Alright.. I'm coming out.
 * Oh, you were gonna try and get closer to Penny by trying to enter her cheering team, but now you're feeling embarrassed because you have to wear a skirt.
 * What? No! I'm gonna beat Penny at her own game so she'll realize how awesome and manly I am! And then she'll definitely wanna date me!
 * Right. So, what's the problem?
 * The problem is me! What if I'm not good as the other girls? What if they laugh at me? And this leotard makes me look fat, so I put this skirt on to hide my butt.
 * What exactly do you want me to do, honey?
 * Err, hello? Be there of course? I need emotional support? You're my mom? Start acting like it?
 * Okay lets go.
 * Right. So, what's the problem?

Cheerleader Audition

 * Now, Penny, I have to say, I'm a little disappointed.
 * I know, it's just I had some emotional problems this afternoon and-
 * YOU LEAVE YOUR EMOTIONS AT THE DOOR! THIS IS CHEER LEADING, NOT DRAMA CLUB! YOU BETTER SHAPE UP OR SHAPE OUT! 'CUZ THIS IS THE BIG LEAGUE, SISTER! AND RIGHT NOW YOU'RE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL! Is there anything you like to add, Principal Brown?
 * Only that we're making cuts today, and after that performance, someone's gonna have to be pretty bad enough for it to be you.
 * Am I too late?
 * Ow!
 * Mom!
 * Well, it's a no for me, Mr. Small
 * It's a no for me too.
 * That's 2 nos, Gumball. You're going home.
 * NOOOO!! MOM! MAKE THEM RECOUNT THE SCORES! MAKE THEM RECOUNT THE SCORES!
 * Well, 0 plus 0 equals 0, honey!
 * Why is the world. SO. CRUEL?!
 * Don't worry, you'll do better next time! After couple of years of intensive training.
 * Oh Gumball, thank you! It was so brave of you to sacrifice your dignity so I can get on the team! I guess that means- -you do like me. Just a little?
 * I think that means yes.
 * Mom, you know how I said I want.. to be my own man.. and make my own decisions?
 * Yes?
 * Can I just wait a few years?
 * The longer the better, honey! Even when you're 80, you'll still be my Gummypuss!
