"The first guy I've met in the last year and a half who isn't a jerk, and now he thinks I've got a crazy kid." "I'm not crazy, Mom." "This thing was alive." "I saw it." "Why won't you believe me?" "Oh, honey, what I believe is... is that you fell asleep with this thing in your hand, and you dreamt the whole thing." "It didn't seem like a dream." "I'm surprised you don't have nightmares in here all the time." "Look at this place." "I didn't argue when you wanted a palm tree... or a leopard skin rug." "But a red ant farm?"

"No more shrunken heads, no more masks, no tom-toms." "I don't even want to see a coconut in here unless it's sliced up in a fruit salad." "Is that clear?" "Is it?" " Yeah, Mom." " Good."
