Quotes 

• Pee-wee : Jambi, Pterri ran away! I wish he'd come back!

  Jambi : Pee-wee, I've already granted your one wish. Besides, you just can't wish your problems away.

  Pee-wee : Well, I seem to have been able to do it up until now!

  [everybody screams] 

• [Pterri has flown into Pee-wee's house of cards, knocking it down] 

  Pee-wee : Pterri!

  Pterri : [realizing what he had done]  Oops.

  Pee-wee : Pterri, I told you not to play Acapulco Cliff Diver in the Playhouse!

  Pterri : I'm sorry. Will you go outside and play with me now?

  [everyone screams] 

  Pee-wee : After you've picked up each and every one of these cards.

• [Reba magically appears in the Playhouse] 

  Pee-wee : Hi, Reba!

  Reba : Pee-wee?

  Pee-wee : How's it going?

  Reba : What are you doing in my house?

  Pee-wee : I'm not in your house. You're in the Playhouse.

  Reba : The Playhouse? How did I get here?

  Jambi : Uh-oh!

  Reba : Jambi, did you put a wish on me?

  Jambi : He made me do it!

• [Pee-wee and his friends are having breakfast with Reba] 

  Pterri : I want to sit next to Reba.

  Globey : Sorry, Pterri, I'm already sitting here.

  Pterri : But you've got all the room in the world.

  Globey : I am the world.

• [Pterri is drinking from the Fishes' tank] 

  Pee-wee : Pterri, what's the matter with you? That's the Fishes' water!

  Pterri : I know, but my dish was empty and I'm thirsty.

  Pee-wee : When you ask somebody to get you something, you don't just drink somebody else's.

  Pterri : Sorry. Can we still go outside and play?

  Pee-wee : No, we can't go outside and play. I think you should go to your nest.

  [Pterri mopes] 

  Pee-wee : Go on, Pterri. Now!

  [everyone screams, and Pterri flies off to his nest] 

• Pterri : [moping]  I don't want to sit here in this nest. It's no fun.

  Randy : [drops by]  Hi ya, Pterri. What's the matter?

  Pterri : Nothing!

  Randy : Can't fool me. You're upset because you think nobody likes ya.

  Pterri : No, sir. Pee-wee likes me.

  Randy : If he liked ya, he'd be playin' with ya instead of punishin' ya. But I likes ya, so I'll give ya an little advice. Don't stick around where you're not wanted.

  [exits] 

  Pterri : [sadly]  Not wanted? Nobody likes me.
