[Geppetto hears him, but his mind doesn't get the message]
Geppetto : Because... you're dead, Pinocchio.
Pinocchio : No! No, I'm not.
Geppetto : Yes. Yes, you are. Now, lie down...
Pinocchio : But father, I'm alive. See?
[Looks at himself]
Pinocchio : And... and I'm... I'm real. I'm a real boy!

Pinocchio : Why?
Geppetto : Oh, to learn things and get smart.
Pinocchio : Why?
Geppetto : [starts to fall asleep] Because.

Pinocchio : I fell down.
Geppetto : Oh, you did... Oh! You are talking!
Pinocchio : Uh-huh.
Geppetto : No! No. no, no!
Pinocchio : Yes, and I can move too.
Geppetto : No, no, you can't! I'm dreaming in my sleep! Oh, wake me up! Wake me up!
[pours a pitcher of water over his head]
Geppetto : Now we see who's dreaming. Go on, say something.
Pinocchio : ...Gee, you're funny. Do it again!
Geppetto : You *do* talk!
Pinocchio : Yes! The Blue Fairy came.
Geppetto : The Blue Fairy?
Pinocchio : Uh-huh, and I got a conscience.
Geppetto : A conscience?
[Jiminy proudly points to himself]

Geppetto : [Inside Monstro the whale] Get out? Oh, no, no, son. I have tried every way. Why, I even built a raft.
Pinocchio : [noticing it] A raft? That's it! We'll take the raft. And when the whale opens his mouth...
Geppetto : No, no, no, no. Now listen, son. He only opens his mouth when he's eating. Then everything comes in; nothing goes out.
Pinocchio : Oh.
Geppetto : It's hopeless, Pinocchio. Come, we'll make a nice fire and we cook some of the fish.
Pinocchio : A fire? That's it!
Geppetto : Yes, and then we'll all eat again.
Pinocchio : A great big fire; lots of smoke!
Geppetto : Smoke? Oh, yes, sure. Smoked fish will taste good.
Pinocchio : Quick, some wood!
[grabs some pieces of wood and a wooden chair and places the wood in Geppetto's arms]
Geppetto : Pinocchio, not the chair!
Pinocchio : Hurry, Father, more wood!
[smashes the chair over a wooden barrel while Geppetto adds the wood pieces]
Geppetto : But what'll we sit on?
Pinocchio : We won't need it. We're getting out!
[Grabs a lit lantern and smashes it over the pile of wood, causing a fire to start. He then adds a blanket to create smoke then promptly starts blowing and fanning on the smoke to force it up. The smoke curls upward toward the top of Monstro]
Geppetto : Getting out? But how?
Pinocchio : We'll make him sneeze!
Geppetto : Make him sneeze? Oh, that will make him mad!

Geppetto : Now, I've got just the name for you: Pinocchio! Do you like it, Figaro?
[Figaro shakes his head]
Geppetto : No? You do, don't you, Cleo?
[Cleo shakes her head]
Geppetto : Well, we'll leave it to little wooden head. You like it?
[pulls on string to make Pinocchio's head nod "yes"]
Geppetto : Ha-ha, that settles it! Pinocchio it is!

[Pinocchio gets his finger on fire, like a candle]
Pinocchio : Look, pretty!
Geppetto : [sees that Pinocchio's finger fire, shocked] OH! HELP!
[blows his finger, but won't budge]
Geppetto : Oh, where's the bucket? Help! Water! Where's water?
[steps on Figaro's tail, meows]
Jiminy Cricket : Here it is, I got it! Here's water, here's some water!
[trips over with a pencil]
Geppetto : Help! Where's water!
[put the fire out of Cleo's bowl]
