Too Much Birthday (1985)

Ruth Buzzi: Mama Bear

Quotes 

• Brother Bear : [as Sister pins the tail on the donkey just right]  Terrific! Way to go! Yea, Sister!

  Sister Bear : [removing her blindfold]  Oh goody, I won, I won!

  Papa Q. Bear : [presenting one of the guests with the prize]  Good work, sonny, here's your prize.

  Sister Bear : But Mama, I won fair and square.

  Mama Bear : Of course you won, sweetie, but you can't get the prize because it's your party. That wouldn't be polite.

• Mama Bear : [after the guests sing "Happy Birthday" to Sister, she cries]  Sweetie, what's the matter? It's your birthday. Why are you so upset?

  Sister Bear : It isn't fair. I was the first one out in musical chairs, I didn't get my donkey game prize, I got bounced on the pony, and sick on the merry-go-round. And I don't *wanna* have six cubs, I only wanna have three.

  [sobs as Mama hugs her] 

  Brother Bear : Gee, Sis, what about your presents? You haven't opened them yet.

  Papa Q. Bear : And cake and ice cream. You haven't had them yet, either.

• Papa Q. Bear : Oh, good. The ponies and the merry-go-round are here.

  Mama Bear : The what?

  Papa Q. Bear : Oh, didn't I tell you? I rented ponies and a merry-go-round for the party. It just wouldn't be a party without ponies and a merry-go-round.

• Mama Bear : [sighing as she piles that season's pumpkins in a wheelbarrow]  I do hope Papa is being careful. He's taking down that big tree today, and...

  Papa Q. Bear : Tim-berrrrrrrrrrrr!

• Mama Bear : [talking to her neighbor]  Well, Papa does tend to get a little carried away, sometimes. But he's a *wonderful* husband and father, and he's always very careful with his work.
