 * Wendy: But, mother, I don’t want to grow up.
 * Mrs. Darling: Now, dear. Don’t worry about it any more tonight.
 * Pippin the Bug King/John: He called Peter Pan “absolute poppycock” Okay.
 * Mrs. Darling: I’m sure he didn’t mean it, John. Father was just upset.
 * Tip the Mouse/Michael: (SNIFFLING) Poor Nana, out there all alone.
 * Mrs. Darling: No more tears, Michael. It’s a warm night. She’ll be all right.
 * Tip the Mouse/Michael: Mother.

 * Mr. Darling: Oh Mary, of all the impossible childish fiddle-faddle, Peter Pan, indeed. How can we expect the children grow up and be practical…
 * Mrs. Darling: George, dear.
 * Mr. Darling: When you’re as bad as they are? No wonder Wendy gets these idiotic ideas.
 * Douglas Duck/J.M. Barrie (voice-over): And now it's ready to action for Peter Pan, and he's trusty sidekick, Tinkerbell. It's searching looking for the shadow.
