"Come on, Arthur." "Live a little!" "The night is young." "And we have umbrellas in our drinks!" "What could go wrong in a swell place like the Evil Eye?" "[Evil laugh] They are here."

"Now you're gonna want to go down Main for two lights." "You'll see a filling station on your right." "Don't take that right!" "Keep going for another block..." "Mynda!" "Could you turn that thing down?" "I'm controlling a mind here." "Control yourself!" "I'm trying to watch this." "I am this close to ruling the world!" "You know what I miss?" "I miss the old days." "When I'd think up a sinister scheme for world domination and you'd show a little emotional support." "[Gasps] Tick!" "Oh." "Arthur." "Hi!" "I just had the craziest dream." "Mr. Mental... you know, the guy from the nightclub?" "He was giving me directions." "And I was powerless to resist." "Directions?" "!" "All right, all right, all right!" "I'll turn it off." "OK?"

"I'll open the floodgates of his own worst nightmare!" "This will take every ounce of my mental strength." "I must enter the Tick's mind!" "I wonder what the Tick's worst nightmare will be." "[Recording] You have reache the offices of the Tick's worst nightmare." "The Tick is out of his min right now." "If you' like to leave a message, please wait for the tone." "If you' like to speak to an operator, press star." "A day job?" "In an office?" "My worst nightmare!" "No!" " Here's the memo." " I'll need this in triplicate." " Henderson gave himself the promotion." " Tick, you're not so special." "[Voices continue]" "No!" "No!" "[Mr. Mental] Now, no more foolin' aroun!" "No more foolin' around." "He's moving again." "Let's go!" "Straight ahead." "Two more blocks." "You can't miss it!" "[Yawns] Man, I gotta get some sleep." " We got a matinee tomorrow." " No, tomorrow we rule the world!" "Yeah, right!" "'Night, Mental." "Ah, the thinking cap!" "It will give an ordinary human mental abilities to rival mine." "So it will give me the powers of the gods!"

"[All scream]" "[Mr. Mental cackles]" "[Continues to laugh]" "[Groans]" "Oh." "Hi, guys." "Tick!" "Mr. Mental took over your mind." "And now he's gonna take over the world with that cap." "That rat!" "Let's get him, boys." "Wait!" "He's too powerful with that thinking cap." "But... it runs on an internal combustion engine!" "So?" "What's your point?" "Yeah." "We've gotta get close enough to that helmet to pull the choke on its engine and flood his mind!" "You're a bad act, Mr. Mental." "Don't mess with me, you fool." "I'm cookin' with gas!" "[Mr. Mental] Take that, you..." "[Mr. Mental] Batter up, boys!" "Get off me!" "The headache I've got!" "I'd almost say you deserve it!" "The human mind is a dangerous plaything, boys." "When it's used for evil, watch out!" "But when it's used for good, then things are much nicer." "And let's try and keep that... in mind."
