• Diane : There's one thing every little kid knows. Daddies mean fun; mommies mean business.

• Diane : I don't understand any of this.

  Wayne : Around every electrical operating device, there's a flux. Like an electromagnetic force field.

  Clifford Sterling : That's what's causing the baby to grow.

  Marshall Brooks : Would this electromagnetic... would it surround neon lights too?

  Wayne : Yeah, why?

  Marshall Brooks : Your kid. He's heading toward Las Vegas.

  Diane , Wayne , Clifford Sterling : Uh-oh.

• [Diane has grown to giant size and catches Charles Hendrickson in a helicopter menacing Adam with a tranquilizer gun] 

  Diane : [to Charles]  BACK OFF!

• Diane : [smiles]  Sweetheart, you can tell me. How bad can it be?

  [kisses him] 

  Diane : After all, it's not like you did something to one of the kids again.

  [Wayne goes nervous then chuckles] 

  Diane : [frowns]  Wayne, where is Adam?

  Wayne : Well, uh...

  Diane : [raises her voice]  Who is that man in the van? And where did this bunny come from!

  Wayne : Alright, I confess, I did it!

  Diane : Did what?

  Adam : [comes on before her eyes]  PEEKABOO!

  [Adam knocks on the door] 

  Wayne : I blew up the baby!

  [Diane faints] 

  Adam : Mama fall down! Mama!

  Nick : [appears from behind Adam]  How'd she take it?

  Wayne : About like usual.

  Adam : Mama sleeping?

• Dr. Charles Hendrickson : [after Adam is back to normal size, to Wayne]  Well, Szalinski, you pulled it off. Who would have thought?

  Diane : Dr. Hendrickson, that looked like some sort of rifle that you were shooting at my baby.

  Dr. Charles Hendrickson : They were tranquilizer cartridges. They wouldn't have hurt him, I assure you.

  Diane : Oh...

  [turns to Wayne and Clifford] 

  Diane : [does not buy it]  Tranquilizer cartridges.

  [Diane slugs Charles knocking him unconscious making him fall on the street] 

  Wayne : [to Adam]  Never cross Mommy.

  Clifford Sterling : We got an emergency here! Dr. Hendrickson needs help. He's overcome with the prospect of having to find a new career.

• Diane : Why are you closing the shutters?

  Wayne : So one of the neighbors doesn't look in, see a 7 foot baby, and call the National Enquirer.

  Adam Szalinski : [hears the doorbell ringing]  Doorbell!

  Diane : Who's that?

  Wayne : One of the neighbors.

  Diane : [sarcastically]  So far your plan has been working perfectly.

• Wayne : Mr. Sterling, sir, I can return my son back to normal!

  Clifford Sterling : You can?

  Dr. Charles Hendrickson : With what, Szalinski? Coca Cola bottles? Perhaps some chewing gum and twine?

  Diane : Just who do you think you are talking to him like that?

  Wayne : Diane, let me handle this. Who do you think you are talking to me like that?

• Diane : Just who do you think you are talking to him like that?

  Wayne : Diane, let me handle this. Who do you think you are talking to me like that?

• Adam : I fix it!

  Diane : Don't fix it, Adam, just put down Mommy's coffee table.

• [Wayne has said the word nap] 

  Diane : Honey, we don't say the n-word around 2-year-olds!

• [Nick notices Adam is playing and strums his guitar] 

  Adam : [sees Nick]  Uh-oh.

  [Nick screams in shocked] 

  Adam : I fix it.

  Nick : I'll fix you, you little punk!

  Diane : Nick, stop.

  [turns to Adam] 

  Diane : Adam, no.

  Adam : Sorry, mama.

  Diane : Yes, I should hope so. Now, come on.

• [Diane grabs a megaphone] 

  Diane : Adam Szalinski... this is your mommy talking... YOU STOP RIGHT NOW

  [Adam keeps walking] 

  Clifford Sterling : That wouldn't do any good Mrs Szalinski... surely he expects his mommy to be bigger than he is... to him, you're just... well you're nothing more than a talking doll
