Guess what I've heard?

What?

Guess!

No, tell me.

I've heard that Elvis is comin' to town.

Elvis is comin' to town.

It's for your face.

I've heard that you're talkin' to someone. Who are you talkin' to?

Nobody.

It better not have been one of those boys wantin' to do evil things with you.

No, ma'am.

Plenty of time for you to grow up and do all kinds of evil, but I just want you to be good while you still can. Gotta long time before you need to be growin' up.

Who are you? Where my daddy?

He's in the can. He'll be out in a minute.

Who's the stranger lady?

We, uh, we were waitin' for you to watch Elvis.

Stop! That's mom's dress!

This filthy thing?

She was going to wear that tonight and you ruined it!

Honey, it was ruined when she bought it.

Fundamentals are the building blocks of fun.

You wouldn't know real music if Mozart hit you on the head with it.

She'll never race again?

No, honey. But she might walk again.

(to Sonador) Run hard tomorrow. Run hard for my dad. He deserves a good run.

Run hard tomorrow. Run hard for my dad. He deserves a good run.

It's a long shot... but why not Sonador? Why not us?

I like him.

Her... I like her too.

What were you doin'? She... she's not a pet, Cale. She's what I do for work now, so you're gonna have to leave her be, alright?

Sorry.

Is Miss Cale Crane here?

I'm Cale Crane.

Why don't you stand up?

Miss Cale Crane.

She's not gonna have a baby, now?

No, honey, she's never gonna have babies.

Cale, you look me in the eye and you tell me that your horse has a chance at beatin' my brother's horse.

My horse will beat every horse that shows up.

(last lines) You are a great champion. When you ran, the ground shook, the sky opened and mere mortals parted. Parted the way to victory, where you'll meet me in the winner's circle, where I'll put a blanket of flowers on your back.

(first lines) There used to be horses in that barn. At least, that's what my grandfather says. We're probably the only horse in Lexington, Kentucky, that doesn't have one horse. Not one.

What do you want to be married to me for, anyhow?

Your mother's waiting for you. She's right down at the end of the bridge. OK. You go home.

OK. Where are you going?

I'm going home too. I'm going to Blue Bayou.

(Cat chops his tail)

[cat chops his tail]

Um, Cat. Your tail!

What about it? Oh I see! I chopped it off. Well that's interesting because... Son of a bi... (it goes to the technical difficulties screen)

Act your age not your shoe size

Act your age, not your shoe size.

Either we let them do what they were created for, or we end them. Decisions, decisions.

(about other mother) EVIL WITCH, I'M NOT SCARED!!!

[about other mother] EVIL WITCH, I'M NOT SCARED!

You know... I love you...

You have a very funny way of showing it.

You're not my mother!

Who's this?

That's our babysitter.

So wait, you mean that you pay this woman to sit on babies? Well that's disgusting!

Every story has an end. But in life, every ending is just a new beginning...

Every grown-up is good at something. Oh, my bad. I don't see any grown-ups around here.

What's so great about being a grown-up anyway? So I can turn out like you?

Are we dead?

Creasy bear

Creasy bear.

There's just one thing wee need to do.

What's that?

No way! Your not sewing buttons into my eyes!

Oh, but we need a yes, if you want to stay.

How can you walk away from something and then come towards it?

Walk around the world.

Small world.

(Inspecting Rachel's splinter) It's gonna get infected.

[inspecting Rachel's splinter] It's gonna get infected.

No it won't. When it's ready, my body will just push it out.

I think I just need a break... From the band.

If you haven't noticed, Cherie, we're in the middle of cutting a record.

I just gotta spend time with my family, you know?

Who? Youre mom in Indonesia? Your drunk dad? Are we not your fucked up family now?

Who? Youre mom is in Indonesia? Your drunk dad? Are we not your fucked up family now?

I can't do this anymore. I need my life back.

I can't do this anymore. I need my life back.

This is my life.

This is my life.

Oh...my God.

Oh my God.

I'm allergic to peanut butter.

Since when?

Birth.

I'm Wybie. Wybie Lovat.

Wybie?

Short for Wyborn. Not my idea, of course. What'd you get saddled with?

I wasn't 'saddled' with anything. It's Coraline.

Coraline what?

Coraline. Coraline Jones.

Hm. It;s not real scientific, but I heard an ordinary name like Caroline can lead people to have ordinary expectations about a person.

How do you know?

.. the cat told me...

The cat told me.

Why aren't you listening to me?

Because your crazy!

crazy? You're the jerk wad that gave me the doll.

Crazy? You're the jerk wad that gave me the doll.

How can you walk away from something, and then come towards it?

Walk around the world.

Small world.

Evil Witch! I'm not scared!

I can see you don't have button eyes, but... if you're not the same cat, how can you talk?

I can see you don't have button eyes, but if you're not the same cat, how can you talk?

I just can.

You realize you're walking right into her trap.

I have to go back. They are my parents.

Challenge her then. She may not play fair, but she won't refuse. She's got a thing for "games.".

Challenge her then. She may not play fair, but she won't refuse. She's got a thing for games.

I don't understand.. (voice trails off)

I don't understand. [voice trails off)

of course you dont. Your just another copy the other mother has made of the real Mr. Boboinsky

Of course you dont. Your just another copy the other mother has made of the real Mr. Boboinsky.

Not even that ANYMORE!

Is that any way to talk to your mother?

YOUR not me mother!

You're not me mother!

APologize at once! coraline

Apologize at once! coraline

NO!

I'll give you to the count of three.

one, two, threeeeee!!!

One, two, threeeeee!!!

You may come out when you learn to be a loving daughter!

YOu do like it her. YOu know you can stay here forever. There's just one condition.

You do like it her. You know you can stay here forever. There's just one condition.

she's behind that door

(stutters)...Can you open it

[stutters] Can you open it?

not in a million years

Not in a million years.

The mice want me to give you a message. They say dont go through small door,....

Caroline, wait! The mice asked me to give you message.

..But it's all bricked up

The jumping mice?

So, sorry, it is nothing. They got it wrong. They even got your name wrong. They call you Coraline, why, not caroline at all....

They are saying, 'Do not go through little door.' Do you know such a thing?

The one behind the wallpaper? But it's all bricked up.

She has the whole world, where everything's better. The food, the neighbors... but it's all a trap

She's got this whole world where everything's better. The food, the garden, the neighbors. But it's all a trap.

I almost fell down a well yesterday, mom.

Uh-huh.

I could've died.

That's nice.

She hates cats, and tries to keep me out. *head pops out of another tree* But she can't of course, I come and go as I please!

The Other Mother hates cats?!

The other mother hates cats?!

Not like any "mother!" I've ever known.

Not like any 'mother' I've ever known.

I think I mentioned that I don't like rats at the best of times.

I think you might've said something like that.

It looked like you needed this one, however. *rolls ball forward*

It looked like you needed this one, however. [rolls ball forward]

Thank you.

My other mother would get them.

Maybe she should buy all your clothes.

Whats all this stuff?

What's all this stuff?

[realizes he is covered in human ashes, he frantically dusts himself off]

How long do you think your mom's been planning this?

Probably since before I was born.

One boring blue boy in a painfully boring painting. Four incredibly boring windows, and no more doors.

I can't believe it. You and Dad get paid to write about plants, and you hate dirt.

Hey, Derek, did Marie tell you she's not wearing any underwear?
