Daniel Kash: Karl Knave

Quotes 

• Karl Knive : [after being knocked unconscious by the PlastoBlaster explosion, Karl stands up and straightens his lab coat, watching the kids run up the stairs]  They THINK they're going to get away!

  [laughs maniacally] 

• Karl Knive : [the three friends run through the baseball field, away from Karl, who is lying on the ground]  come back!

  Matthew Erikson : [Matthew's ball cap falls off]  My hat!

  [Karl reaches forward in a flash, trying to grab a hold of Matthew's cap, but Matthew rescues it from him and runs away. Karl pounds his fists on the ground and starts to cry] 

• Jessica Walters : [the three friends are having a bonfire, burning the entire model town down to ashes in the night]  That all of it?

  Matthew Erikson : [Matthew holds up a little plastic man]  All but the king of Karlsville.

  Jessica Walters : [concerned]  But how do you know that that's Karl?

  Todd Erikson : Looks like his clothes...

  Matthew Erikson : Besides, we checked every inch of that room.

  Jessica Walters : I just wish that we could be sure...

  Todd Erikson : ...Look, you see there?

  [points his finger towards the head of a plastic man who closely resembles Karl, melting in the flames] 

  Todd Erikson : That's Karl's head.

  Matthew Erikson : [reassuring]  Yeah, it... it's gotta be...

  Jessica Walters : Are you sure...?

  Matthew Erikson : Yup.

  [holds out the last plastic person to Jessica, who stares down at it in victory for a moment] 

  Jessica Walters : Next time... pick on someone your own size.

  [tosses the person into the fire] 

  Karl Knive : [the screen cuts to Mrs. Erikson's vacuum cleaner hose, and Karl can be heard, alive and shouting as he slides down the hose to the floor]  Whoa-whoa-HO! Whoa!

  [Karl stands up, brushes off his shiny jacket and laughs evilly] 

• Karl Knive : Did I tell you this won't hurt?

  Todd Erikson : No.

  Karl Knive : Good, because it does!

  Todd Erikson : UGH! SHUT UP!

• Karl Knive : I'm going to turn you plastic now, and forever tiny. Does that scare you?

  Todd Erikson : ...Yes!

  Karl Knive : [smiles sympathetically]  It SHOULD.

• Karl Knive : I don't want money! I want power. In Karlsville, I'm king. "King Karl of Karlsville"! Has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

• Karl Knive : That's the grand prize - you're going to become a citizen of Karlsville!

  Todd Erikson : [disappointed]  That's IT?

  Karl Knive : [offended]  That's IT? Why, it's an honor! Do you know the expenses of setting up the parade, hiring the band, THE POSTERS?

  [then, to Miss Karlsville:] 

  Karl Knive : Some people are SO ungrateful.

  [Miss Karlville nods her head in agreement] 

• Todd Erikson : Why do you wanna turn me to plastic?

  Karl Knive : It's a hobby! Everyone needs a hobby. My hobby is getting kids under my power... it passes the time.

• Karl Knive : [sinister tone, whilst glaring at Todd]  Welcome... to Karlsville!

• Karl Knive : There's nowhere else to go, my young friends... Karlsville is your home...

  [Mrs. Erickson starts vacuuming in Todd's room near the model town] 

  Karl Knive : What is that annoying racket?

  [Karl turns to glare at the three kids in anger] 

  Karl Knive : Now, I'm in a BAD MOOD...

  [to the townsfolk] 

  Karl Knive : chain them up!

• Karl Knive : [Triumphantly]  Unveil the PlastoBlaster!
