Quote 1:

 * (after the Little Red Caboose song, Barney comes to life)
 * Barney: Whoa!
 * Kids: Barney! (they hug him)
 * Barney: Hi, kids! How're ya doin'?!
 * Gail: Wasn't it fun being at the playground with all the kids?!
 * Barney: Oh, yes, Gail! I love to play with you! (giggles)
 * Reese: (offscreen) Guys! Guys! Not so loud!
 * Antonio: That sounds like Reese.
 * Reese: (comes down from the treehouse) I'm trying to read a book about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Quote 2:

 * (after Barney, BJ, and the grownups take care of Baby Bop, the kids play earthlings and martians)
 * Kids: (as martians) Get the earthling! Get the earthling!
 * Min: (as the earthling) Martians, you'll never catch me! I'm too fast! I brought my bicycle to the solar system! (he runs off)
 * Tosha: (she stops) How could she get a bicycle in her suitcase!? (laughing) Min's so funny! (she runs off)
 * Shawn: (he stops) Oh, no! That means we will never catch him! (he runs off)
 * (Antonio walks slowly and humming)
 * (the others martians catch the earthling)
 * (Antonio stops and get very tired)
 * Antonio: Oh...this isn't good. The solar system the Sun and 8 planets. The bicycle wheels would just sink down and spin around like you were on a beach.
 * Min: Of course not. That will be too funny.
 * Antonio: Oh, yes. It's a scientific fact. You couldn't ride your bicycle to the solar system.
 * Min: Yes, I know. We were just playing.
 * Antonio: But it's not scientific. Science is science, c'mon!
 * (the rest of the kids come over)
 * (Gail groaning)
 * Gail: Hey!! Why are you spoiling all our fun today?!!
 * Antonio: I'm not spoiling a thing.
 * Carlos: Then how come we stopped laughing?
 * Min: Okay, okay, okay. Good thing I packed my balloon-mobile. It can bounce on any planet at different sizes. (she pretends to ride on her balloon-mobile and imitates bouncing sounds)
 * Shawn: (laughing) That's funny, Antonio.
 * Tosha: Now we'll never catch her now. She's got her balloon-mobile.
 * Antonio: I'm not playing. Balloon-mobiles do not exist.
 * Min: Antonio, it's just for fun.
 * Barney: (opens the door) Kids, kids! Not so loud!
 * Gail: Oh, sorry, Barney!
 * Carlos: Yeah, we don't wanna make a peep.
 * Barney: Shh. Baby Bop's asleep. BJ, the grownups, and I are trying our best to take care of Baby Bop because she has a tummy-ache.
 * Shawn: But we're playing a great game!
 * Barney: Well, I set up a nice, quiet game for you kids in the classroom.
 * Shawn: Oh, can you tell us?!
 * Barney: Well, it's called number bingo!
 * All (except Antonio and Min): YAAAAAAAAY!!!
 * Min: You know what, Antonio?
 * Antonio: What?
 * Min: Martians play bingo.
 * Antonio: Of course not.
 * Min: Yes, they do. They call it "gobing". That's why "bingo" said it backwards.
 * Tosha: You're funny, Min!
 * Min: C'mon, let's go!
 * (all come inside the classroom with Barney except Antonio)
 * Antonio: Well, I know they do not play bingo on the solar system. (he comes inside the classroom)

Quote 3:

 * (we see Barney and the kids at the table playing number bingo)
 * Barney: All right. Whoever has the... (he holds up a card with the number 10) ...number 10 should put a token on it.
 * (Min puts the token in the wrong spot)
 * Min: Ahhh! Gobing!
 * Antonio: Already!? Lemme see that! Hey!! You put your token in the wrong spot. So why did you shout "gobing"?!?
 * Min: I'm playing backwards. Gobing, gobing, gobing!
 * Antonio: B-but that's not the way it's played.
 * Barney: According to the rules, Antonio's right.
 * Min: Antonio is fun about lots of things but...it's fun to play backwards.
 * Barney: Then you should vote how you want to play it.
 * Shawn: I vote we follow the rules.
 * Gail: I vote we play for fun.
 * Tosha: Me, too.
 * Carlos: Me, three.
 * Baby Bop: (wakes up) Ahhh! Excuse me! Excuse me!
 * Barney: Oh, we're sorry, Baby Bop. Did we wake you up?
 * Baby Bop: I had a dream that the bingo hall is crowded. And every time I asked people to move in a polite way, they would yell "gobing".
 * Barney: Please go back to sleep. You must having a tummy-ache.
 * Baby Bop: I know.
 * Barney: So we'll all try to be as quite as mice, won't we?
 * Carlos: Yeah. We're sorry, Baby Bop.
 * Baby Bop: Thank you so much. And I'm sorry for spoiling...whatever you're playing. (yawns and then walks over to the grownups) Dracup?
 * Dracup: Yes, Baby Bop.
 * Baby Bop: Barney and the kids are too loud.
 * Ishtar: What?!
 * Baby Bop: There's too much noise and I can't sleep. Besides, I have a tummy-ache.
 * Trafford: Okay, just take a rest so that your tummy will feel all better.
 * Baby Bop: Well, all right.
 * Ishtar: Also, you will not hear the noise of Barney and the kids.
 * Reese: Yeah. You can use earplugs so that the sound won't bother you.
 * Baby Bop: Okay.
 * (the grownups get a cup of earplugs for Baby Bop)
 * Carlos: Wow! Antonio already spoiled the game. He's being too scientific today.
 * Antonio: No, I'm not. I'm a fun guy.
 * Barney: Antonio's right. He just wanted to play by the rules.
 * Tosha: Yes, but rules spoil all the fun.
 * Antonio: No, they don't. Sometimes, rules can be lots of fun!
 * Barney: That's true, Antonio. So instead of fighting, let's all just start over and begin another game -- a quiet one.
 * Shawn: Oh. Like guess what? That's quiet.
 * Barney: Yes, Shawn. Off you go to the treehouse, but on your tippy-toes as quiet as little mice.
 * Min: Like quiet, little mice wearing slippers.
 * All (except Min): Quiet mice wearing slippers?!! Eww!!
 * (Barney giggles)
 * Antonio: That's impossible! Mice don't wear slippers!
 * Shawn: You're funny, Min!
 * Min: C'mon, Antonio. It's just pretend.
 * Barney: Antonio knows that. He just see things a bit differently. That's all. And Antonio's way can be lots of fun, too!

Quote 4:

 * (Barney and the kids are ready to make the apple pie)
 * Barney: Okay, now. Here's the flour... (he puts a bag of flour on the table) ...and a mixing spoon and a basket of apples. So who wants to help me count the apples?
 * Antonio: I do! I can even count them backwards! Wanna see?!
 * Barney: Sure.
 * Antonio: Okay. (he turns around) 1 apple, 2 apples, 3 apples. (he turns his head back) See, Barney?!! I counted them backwards!! Funny, huh?!
 * Barney: It may be funny, Antonio, but it's a bit loud.
 * BJ: (he walks over and steals the rolling pin) All right! Now's my chance to play baseball! (laughs and leaves the classroom)
 * Shawn: I'll do it. I can count quietly, except if I hafta count them more than 11.
 * Barney: That's right, Shawn, because I only need 5 apples.
 * Shawn: Of course, Barney. That is the right ingreident for apple pie.
 * Barney: (giggles) Okay, now, where did I put my rolling pin?
 * Shawn: (quietly) 1...2...
 * Antonio: Hey, look, everyone!
 * (cuts to Antonio wearing a basket as a hat)
 * Antonio: I've got a new hat! (laughs) Funny, huh, Barney?!
 * Barney: I guess it is.
 * Antonio: Then how come nobody's laughing??
 * Shawn: Because we are busy.
 * Gail: Yup.
 * Antonio: (gasps) Hey, Gail. (stares at Gail)
 * Gail: What?
 * Antonio: There's a bee on your nose.
 * Gail: (screams) AAAH!!!
 * Antonio: (laughing) Just kidding! Pretty good one, huh?!
 * Carlos: You're gonna wake Baby Bop up.
 * Antonio: Oh, no!! Now the bee is sitting on your hairband, Min!!
 * Min: (screams) AAAAH!!!
 * Gail: Antonio!! What's wrong with you today?!!
 * Tosha: Yeah. You're not acting like you.
 * Antonio: It's because I'm funny. (laughing)
 * Gail: No, you're not. You are just very, very weird.
 * Barney: Kids! Kids! All I need you to do is to be quiet -- extremely quiet. And my rolling pin. Where is it?
 * Min: BJ took it and he went outside.
 * Barney: Thanks, Min. I'll just go outside and tell him to give it back, okay?
 * Min: Well, okay.
 * (Barney leaves the classroom)
 * Antonio: Hey, Carlos.
 * Carlos: Yes, Antonio?
 * Antonio: Want to see me make it snow? (laughs)
 * (cuts to BJ playing baseball)
 * Barney: Oh, BJ. Where did you put my rolling pin?
 * BJ: (has the rolling pin) I have it right here.
 * Barney: Oh, that's nice. But can I have the rolling pin back so the kids and I can make the apple pie?
 * BJ: No. I wanna play baseball. The rolling pin is a baseball bat.
 * Barney: I get it. So you think the rolling pin is a baseball bat, right?
 * BJ: Right. I'm going to play baseball with a baseball bat. (he practices playing baseball with a baseball bat)
 * Barney: (giggles) All right, BJ. After you're done with the bat, it would be nice if you would...
 * (a loud crash is heard in the classroom and the kids are guffawing)
 * Barney: Oh, my! Something in the classroom is going on here! Come, BJ!!
 * (he comes into the classroom with BJ. They see the kids and Antonio covered with flour)
 * Barney: Uh-oh! ANTONIO!!
 * Antonio: Look at me, everyone!! I'm a snowman!! (laughing)
 * (the other kids look frustrated)
 * Antonio: I'm funny, huh, guys?!!
 * All (except Antonio): NOOOOOOOOOO!!
 * Baby Bop: (wakes up) Oh, there's too much noise in here. I'm going to the bathroom. Maybe there I can feel all better. Ishtar.
 * Ishtar: Yes, Baby Bop?
 * Baby Bop: Can I go to the bathroom? I have a tummy-ache.
 * Ishtar: Sure. Why not?
 * (Baby Bop goes to the bathroom)
 * Gail: Uh-oh!
 * Carlos: Now we'll never get our apple pie!
 * Barney: But Antonio is going to take a 5 minute timeout.
 * Antonio: Huh?! Just for being funny?! That's not fair!
