Lewis : I don't even know what I'm doing.
Wilbur : Keep moving forward.
Lewis : I mean, this stuff is way too advanced for me.
Wilbur : Keep moving forward.
Lewis : And what if I can't fix this, what are we going to do?
Wilbur : Keep moving forward.
Lewis : Why do you keep saying that? And don't just say keep moving forward!
Wilbur : It's my dad's motto.
Lewis : Why would his motto be keep moving forward?
Wilbur : It's what he does.

Wilbur : Pop quiz: Who have you met, and what have you learned?
Lewis : OK. Bud, Fritz, and Joe are brothers. Fritz is married to Petunia, and is she...?
[Makes a talking gesture with his hand]
Wilbur : Cranky? Yes.
Lewis : Tallulah and Laszlo are their children. Joe is married to Billie. Lefty is the butler. Spike and Dimitri are twins, and I don't know who they're related to.
Wilbur : Neither do we. Go on.
Lewis : Lucille is married to Bud, and your dad, Cornelius, is their son. What does Cornelius look like?
Wilbur : Tom Selleck.
Lewis : OK. Cornelius is married to Franny, and her brothers are Gaston and Art.
Wilbur : You're forgetting something.
Lewis : Forgetting? Oh, right! Wilbur is the son of Franny and Cornelius.
Wilbur : And nobody realized that you're from the past?
Lewis : Nope.
Wilbur : Whew.
Lewis : Thank you. Thank you. Hold your applause.
-
Lewis : Why is your dog wearing glasses?
Grandpa Bud : Oh, because his insurance won't pay for contacts.
-
Wilbur : Five years ago, Dad wakes up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat. Wants to build a time machine. So he starts working! We're talking plans, we're talking scale models, we're talking prototypes!
Wilbur : [shows Lewis a small scrap of metal]
Lewis : That's a prototype?
Wilbur : The very first!... Or, what's left of it.
Lewis : Yikes.
Wilbur : Yeah. Dark day at the Robinson household.

Wilbur : [at the science fair after Lewis puts his memory scanner on the table]
[Wilbur pops out from underneath the sheet covering the memory scanner]
Wilbur : This area is not secure, get in.
[pulls Lewis under the sheet]
Wilbur : Have you been approached a tall man in a bowler hat?
Lewis : What?
Wilbur : Hey, hey, I'll ask the questions here.
Lewis : Okay... goodbye.
[starts to leave but Wilbur drags him back in]
Wilbur : Okay, I didn't want to pull rank on you but you forced my hand. Special agent Wilbur Robinson of the T.C.T.F.
Lewis : What?
Wilbur : Time continuum task force. I'm here to protect you.
[Lewis tries to say something but Wilbur covers his mouth]
Wilbur : Now, tall man? Bowler hat? Approached you?
Lewis : No, why?
Wilbur : [Wilbur sighs and shakes his head] I could lose my badge for this, he's a suspect in a robbery.
Lewis : What did he steal?
Wilbur : A time machine.
Lewis : A what?
Wilbur : I tracked him to this time and my informants say he's after you.
Lewis : Me? Why me?
Wilbur : The boys back at HQ haven't figured out a motive yet.
[uses air quotes]
Wilbur : And by "HQ" I mean headquarters.
Lewis : I know what HQ means!
Wilbur : Good, you're a smart kid, that'll keep you alive... for now.
[pats Lewis's memory scanner]
Wilbur : You just take care of your science gizmo and leave the perp to me.
[leaves but instantly]
Wilbur : [pops back under the sheet] And by perp, I mean perp...
Lewis : I know what it means!
Wilbur : Okay, Mr. Smartypants.
[leaves the sheet]
-
Wilbur : he keeps working and working until finally, he gets it! The first working time machine! Then, he keeps working and working until finally, he gets it again! The second working time machine!
Lewis : Kinda small.
Wilbur : I'm assuming that's a joke. I'm ignoring you for time reasons. This, my friend, is merely a model, because unfortunately, time machine number two is in the hands of the Bowler Hat Guy!

[first lines]
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : Then, um, I didn't choose that one because it was gonna give me pimples so I choosed, um, another scary one cause for, um, all those years that I went for halloween I wasn't scary at all... I love baseball. It's my destiny to play that game. And I don't really care about winning. Well, like, now i do, cause, like, we've lost every game and I've gotten tired of it! I'm working like so hard, all the balls are getting thrown to me, I'm trying to catch like everyone. All of the people in the out field are all looking around, and, c'mon, lets play some baseball, ok? not the lazy game... They're here... Lewis? Lewis?
Lewis : Goob? Hey Goob? I've finished it! They're gonna love this!
-
Carl : Welcome back, little buddy. So, uh, what's up with the stolen time machine? Did you find it?
[Wilbur gives him a sarcastic look]
Carl : Apparently not. And you managed to bust this one as well!
Wilbur : It'll be fixed before dad gets home.
Carl : And how d'you suppose that's gonna hap...
[spots Lewis]
Carl : Who's that?
Lewis : Wow! A real robot! Hi, I'm Lewis!
[Carl runs screaming from the room]
Lewis : Well, that was unexpected.
[Wilbur quickly puts a fruit hat on Lewis's head]
Lewis : As... was that.
Wilbur : If my family finds out that I brought you from the past, they'll bury me alive and dance on my grave! I'M NOT EXAGGERATING! Well, yes I am, but that's not the point! The point is, your hair's a dead giveaway.
Lewis : Why would my hair be a dead giveaway?
Wilbur : That is an excellent question!
[begins to run away]
Lewis : Wait! Where are you going?
Wilbur : Another excellent question!
-
Lewis : [Lewis is on the roof disappointed that his memory scanner failed, he rips out the page with the picture of the memory scanner out of his notebook, crumples it into a ball and throws it away. He sits down on a crate. Then by his suprise the ball of paper hits him in the head, he throws it again trying to figure out what's happening, and Wilbur jumps out from behind the building and throws the crumpled ball of paper back to him which lands on the crate, then jumps back to the wall next to the door] Hey, what're you doing up here?
Wilbur : Coo, coo, coo.
[Lewis picks up the crumpled ball of paper and heads over to where Wilbur is hiding]
Wilbur : Coo, coo coo-coo coo.
[Deliberatly drops the ball of crumpled paper close to where Wilbur is and Wilbur jumps back out, picks up the ball of paper, and puts it in Lewis's hand]
Wilbur : Coo, coo.
[jumps back into hiding spot]
Lewis : [throws down ball of paper] Will you quit that please? I know you're not a pigeon!
Wilbur : [jumps out and covers Lewis's mouth and starts looking around to see if anyone is around] Shh, you're blowing my cover!
Lewis : [Wilbur is still looking around to see if anyone is watching them] But we're the only ones up here!
Wilbur : That's just what they want you to think.
[picks up the ball of paper and flattens it out and gives it to Lewis and Wilbur starts pushing Lewis to the door]
Wilbur : Now, enough moping, take this back the science fair and fix that memory scanner!
Lewis : [pushes Wilbur away] Stop, stop, get away from me!
Wilbur : Maybe you forgotten I'm a time cop from the future.
[quickly shows his "badge" to Lewis which is really a coupon for a tanning salon]
Wilbur : Should be taken very seriously.
Lewis : [Lewis grabs Wilbur's "badge"] That's no badge, it's a coupon for a tanning salon!
[waving the coupon in Wilbur's face]
Lewis : You're a fake.
Wilbur : [Lewis heads back to the crate to get his notebook and his bag] Okay, you got me, I'm not a cop. But I really am from the future! And there really is this bowler hat guy!
Lewis : [grabs his bag] Agh, here we go again.
Wilbur : He stole a time machine, came to the science fair and ruined your project!
Lewis : My project didn't work because I'm no good.
[Wilbur pockets the paper with the picture of the time machine in his pocket]
Lewis : There is no bowler hat guy, there is no time machine and you're not really from the future. You're crazy!
Wilbur : [starts to head for the door to leave but Wilbur blocks him] Ho, ho, I am not crazy.
Lewis : Oh, yeah captain time travel? Prove it!
Wilbur : Uh... um...
[rubs his head]
Lewis : Yeah, that's what I thought.
[heads to the door]
Lewis : [mumbling] I'm just going to lock myself in my room and hide under the covers for a couple of years.
Wilbur : [Lewis starts to open the door but is immediatly slammed shut by Wilbur]
[kind of quickly]
Wilbur : If I prove to you that I'm from the future will you go back to the science fair?
Lewis : Yeah, sure whatever you say.
[Wilbur smiles jumps behind him, grabs him and starts pushing him to one of the edges of the orphanage]
Lewis : Let go of me! What are you doing, let go of me!
Wilbur : Okay.
[Lifts Lewis up and throws over the side of the building where he lands in the time machine]
-
Bowler Hat Guy : Allow me to shed some light on the subject.
[turns on light, revealing room in the orphanage]
Lewis : My old room!
Bowler Hat Guy : I think you mean OUR old room!
[takes off cape, revealing baseball uniform]
Bowler Hat Guy : Ah, yes! It is I, Mike Yagoobian!
-
Wilbur : [when Wilbur is showing Lewis the future] Is this proof enough for you?
Lewis : [looking around at everything] Is it ever! I never thought that time travel could be possible in my lifetime, and here it is, right in front of me!
Wilbur : The truth will set you free, brother.
Lewis : This is beyond anything I could have imagined.
[quietly]
Lewis : This means I could really change my life.
Wilbur : That's right, you can. Next stop, science fair to fix your memory scanner.
[turns around to punch in the date]
Lewis : Hey, I'm not going to fix that stupid memory scanner.
Wilbur : [the brakes screech, making the time machine come to a screeching halt] What?
Lewis : Wilbur this is a *time machine*. Why should I fix my dumb invention when you can take me to see my mom now, in this ship?
Wilbur : Uh... um...
Lewis : I can go back to that night and stop her from giving me up.
Wilbur : The answer is not a time machine.
[takes out the picture of the memory scanner and shows it to Lewis]
Wilbur : It's this.
Lewis : [points to the picture] This? You wanna know what I think of this?
[grabs the picture, rips it up and throws the pieces away]
Wilbur : What are you doing?
[runs to catch the pieces]
Lewis : I'm sorry, Wilbur. You don't know what I've lived through.
[tries to start up time machine]
Wilbur : Lewis, no!
Lewis : [fighting over controls] Let go!
Wilbur : You let go!
Lewis : You're not the boss of me!
Wilbur : Yes, I am! You're twelve and I'm thirteen. That makes me older!
-
Lewis : How did you end up like this?
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : Well, it's a long and pitiful story, about a young boy with a dream. a dream of winning a Little League championship.
Bowler Hat Guy : [flashback to a Little League baseball game, Yagoobian is asleep in the outfield; a sleepy Yagoobian fails to catch a ball headed his way] A dream that was ruined in the last inning. We lost by one run because of me.
Baseball player : Get him!
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : [the scene changes to Yagoobian in the orphanage] If I hadn't fallen asleep, I would have caught the ball! And we would have won! Do you understand?
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : For some reason, no one wanted to adopt me.
Reporter : [over the radio] Whiz kid Cornelius Robinson graduates from college at age 14 - This year's Nobel Prize goes to a young Cornelius Robinson.
Student 1 : Hey Goob, what's up?
Student 2 : Cool binder, want to come over to my house today?
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : They all hated me. Eventually, they closed down the orphanage and everyone left... except me.
Reporter : [on radio] Cornelius Robinson rebuilds Inventco - Rrobinson reaches out to - Cornielius Robinson - Cornelius Robinson is now - Now here's another amazing...
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : It was then that I realized it wasn't my fault. It was yours! If you hadn't kept me up all night working on your stupid project, then I wouldn't have missed the catch, so I devised a brilliant plan to get revenge.
[Yagoobian throws eggs at the Robinson Industries building]
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : Robinson, you stink!
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : Then, just as I was on the brink of destroying Robinson Industries, I met 'her'.
[Doris chirps]
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : We retreated to our villainous lair, where Doris spun a tale of deception and woe. Apparently, you invented her to be a helping hat, a slave to humankind... But Doris knew she was capable of so much more!
[Doris pulls herself over the lab assistant's eyes]
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : However, you didn't see her true potential...
Cornelius : Got it!
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : So you shut her down... or so you thought.
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : [Doris breaks out of her holding cell] We both had a score to settle with you, and while my plan for revenge was brilliant, Doris's was... well, we went with Doris's, but I made a very, very important contribution. Together we made the perfect team.
Franny : [Doris activates her night vision goggles] Wilbur, make sure you shut that door tight, or else the alarm won't engage.
Wilbur : Yeah, Mom.
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : [Wilbur leaves the door ajar] I went to your house, snuck in the garage, and stole the time machine. All thanks to that pointy-haired little kid who forgot to lock the garage door.
[Adult Yagoobian cackles as the flashback ends]
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : And now, all that's left is to return to Inventco, where I'll pass off your little gizmo as my own.
-
Franny : [from inside the garage] Wilbur! Make sure you shut that door tight, or else the alarm won't engage.
Wilbur : Yeah, mom.
Bowler Hat Guy : [Wilbur leaves the door ajar] I went to your house, snuck in the garage, and stole the time machine... all thanks to that pointy-haired little kid who forgot to lock the garage door.
Bowler Hat Guy : [Bowler Hat Guy cackles] And now all that's left is to return to Inventco where I'll pass off your little gizmo as my own.
Lewis : But you have no idea what that could do to this future!
Bowler Hat Guy : I don't care! I just want to ruin your life,
Lewis : Goob! I had no idea!
Bowler Hat Guy : Shut up! And don't call me 'Goob'! How many evil villains do you know who can pull off a name like Goob? Bleh!
Lewis : Look, I'm sorry your life turned out so bad, but don't blame me! You messed it up yourself, you just focused on the bad stuff when all you had to do was... let go of the past and... keep moving forward.
Bowler Hat Guy : Hmm. let's see: take responsibility for my own life, or blame you? Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding! "Blame you" wins hands down!
[Bowler Hat Guy cackles]
Bowler Hat Guy : This is gonna be the best day of my life!
-
Mildred : [talking on the phone] We'll see you at 2:00 this afternoon. He'll be so excited you're coming. Bye-bye, now.
[Mildred hangs up]
Mildred : Yes! Hey, Goob - I mean, Michael, good luck at the big game today!
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : [sleepily] Easy win, those guys are a bunch of bums. I just hope I can stay awake.
Mildred : Don't tell me, let me guess...
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : He was up all night, working on his stupid project.
[yawns]
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : But that's what happens when you get a science geek for a roommate.
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : [Yagoobian sips his juice box, and trades it to Mildred in exchange for her mug of coffee, which he drinks] Ahh, that's good joe.
Mildred : [Mildred sees Lewis in his bedroom, working on his invention] All right, Einstein, you owe Michael big time.
Lewis : Well, unlocking the secrets of the brain took a lot longer than I expected, but it's finished, Mildred; I re-calibrated the headset.
[Lewis shows his illustrated scientific notes to Mildred]
Lewis : Now the neural circuits will connect! I've cracked the hippocampus!
Mildred : Really? Okay, what?
Lewis : Now to test it out.
[Lewis's alarm clock goes off; he starts putting his invention model into a wagon]
Lewis : Oh no, I'm late! I gotta go!
Mildred : Wait a minute, Lewis, wait a minute.
[Mildred briefly laughs]
Mildred : I almost forgot what I came up here for. I know you have a lot on your plate today, but I've scheduled an interview for you this afternoon.
Lewis : No thanks.
Mildred : No thanks? Sweetheart, this is about being adopted, and you will be back here clean, happy, and on time.
Lewis : I'm done with interviews, Mildred. I'm not gonna be rejected anymore.
Mildred : Listen, I know where your head is, but I'm telling you, you have got to get out of the past and look to the future.
Lewis : I am, and this is it. This is my future. I'm sorry.
[Lewis heads out the front door towards the elementary school's science fair]
Mildred : Lewis? Honey?
-
Lewis : How did you end up like this?
Bowler Hat Guy : Well, it's a long and pitiful story, about a young boy with a dream. a dream of winning a Little League championship.
[flashback to a Little League baseball game at a sandlot where Yagoobian is asleep in the outfield; a sleepy Yagoobian fails to catch a fly ball that lands next to him]
Bowler Hat Guy : A dream that was ruined in the last inning. We lost by one run because of me.
Baseball Player : Get him!
Michael "Goob" Yagoobian : [the scene changes to Yagoobian in the orphanage] If I hadn't fallen asleep, I would have caught the ball, and we would have won! Do you understand?
Bowler Hat Guy : For some reason, no one wanted to adopt me.

Twin student 1 : Hey Goob, what's up?
Twin student 2 : Cool binder, want to come over to my house today?
Bowler Hat Guy : They all hated me. Eventually, they closed down the orphanage and everyone left... except me.

Bowler Hat Guy : We retreated to our villainous lair, where Doris spun a tale of deception and woe. Apparently, you invented her to be a helping hat, a slave to humankind... But Doris knew she was capable of so much more... However, you didn't see her true potential...

-
Bowler Hat Guy : Now, go get that boy!
Lewis : [T-Rex corners Lewis, but can't reach him] Oh! Aah!
T-Rex : What's going on? Why aren't you seizing the boy?
T-Rex : [subtitled] I have a big head... and little arms. I'm just not sure... how well this plan was thought through... Master?
Bowler Hat Guy : Ugh, stupid, stupid, stupid!
-
Lewis : Why are you doing this to me? I never did anything to you.
Bowler Hat Guy : You still haven't figured it out?
Lewis : Figured out what?
Bowler Hat Guy : Well, let's see if this rings a bell: father of the future, inventor extraordinaire, "Keep Moving Forward" ?
Lewis : That's not me, that's Wilbur's dad.
[Bowler Hat Guy makes a sinister grin]
Lewis : Are you saying that... I'm Wilbur's... dad?
Bowler Hat Guy : Ooh, give the boy a prize! You grew up to be the founder of this wretched time, so I plan to destroy your destiny.
[sing song voice]
Bowler Hat Guy : Easy peasy, rice and cheesy.
Lewis : Well... so if I'm Wilbur's dad...
Bowler Hat Guy : Keep going.
Lewis : If I'm Wilbur's dad...
Bowler Hat Guy : Yes, thank you, we've established that.
Lewis : Ah, but... what does that have to do with you?
Bowler Hat Guy : Aha! Allow me to shed some light on the subject.
Lewis : [the light reveals Lewis's old room, Lewis gasps] My old room!
Bowler Hat Guy : I think you mean 'our' old room.
Lewis : What?
Bowler Hat Guy : [Bowler Hat Guy takes off his cloak, revealing his old baseball uniform] Yes! Yes, it is I, Mike Yagoobian!
Lewis : Ugh!
Bowler Hat Guy : I know, I'm disgusting, but one learns to love it.
-
Bowler Hat Guy : [Bowler Hat Guy turns on a light, revelaing an abandoned bedroom] Allow me to shed some light on the subject.
Lewis : [gasps] My old room!
Bowler Hat Guy : I think you mean 'our' old room.
Lewis : What?
Bowler Hat Guy : [Bowler Hat Guy removes his cloak, revealing his old Little League baseball uniform] Ye-es! Yes, it is I, Mike Yagoobian!
Lewis : Ugh!
Bowler Hat Guy : I know, I'm disgusting, but one learns to love it.
Lewis : How did you end up like this?

-
Mildred : It's not you. we just haven't found the right couple yet.
Lewis : 124.
Mildred : [gently] What?
Lewis : That's how many adoption interviews I've had, 124.
Mildred : Oh Lewis, come on now, you're exaggerating just to make your... point.
[Lewis turns the crate around with 124 tally marks on it]
Lewis : Plus, I'm gonna be 13 next year, and you know how hard it is for a teenager to get adopted. I have no future, no one wants me!
Mildred : That's not true, Lewis!
Lewis : My own mother didn't even want me!
Mildred : Now stop it! You do not know that!
Lewis : Then why did she give me up?
Mildred : She may not have been able to take care of you, did you ever think of that?
[Lewis turns silent]
Mildred : I am sure she was only thinking about what was best for you.
Lewis : I never thought of it that way.
Mildred : Maybe she wanted to keep you, but she had no choice.
Lewis : You're right! My real mom is the only person who's ever wanted me.
Mildred : Wait, I said 'maybe'.
Lewis : If she wanted me then, she'll want me now!
Mildred : What are you talking about?
Lewis : I have to find her, Mildred, and when I do, she'll take me back, and we'll be a family again!
Mildred : Whoa, whoa, whoa, Lewis! You can't do that! No one knows anything about her, no one even saw her!
Lewis : [Lewis looks up at a billboard that says "Remember your Ginkgo Biloba"] Wrong, I saw her... once, she's in here. I just have to remember.
