Quotes[]

(At the Makin' Bacon, after Monster tells the news of Robot's sudden fame)

Spitfire: (laughs) Robot is the new standard beauty?

Ogo: (suddenly hops from behind counter) I always thought so!

(Spitfire and Monster stare at him awkwardly)

Monster: Anyway...(pops bacon into his mouth) I'm happy for him! Robot's always been self-concious about his looks. I think this will really boost his confidence.

Robot: Behold me in all my glory! (basks in the attention he receives)

Spitfire: Well, it's working, alright.



Punch Morley: (seeing Perry's smile) Now there's a happy fella!

Perry: Put a sock in it!


(after Perry's smile is noticed)

Woman: (to her baby) You see? There's always something to smile about!

Perry: Blow it out your ear, lady!

Baby: (cries)


(after Perry successfully gains his frown thanks to J.D.'s spray)

Perry: I can mope! I can scowl! This is the BEST day of my life!

J.D.: Now the effects are temporary, so we're going to have to keep spraying you.

Perry: Thank you, J.D.! I'd smile at you, but I'm so SICK of smiling!
