I found my toothbrush marinating in the toilet this morning. ZorakYeah, I rinsed it. Space GhostI'm not runnin' a flophouse for degenerate bugs. ZorakNever judge a bug by its shell. Space GhostWhat you see is what you get. ZorakAct in haste, repent in leisure. Space GhostHe who hesitates is lost. ZorakHelp me, Obi-wan, you're my only hope.

It's a side of me nobody understands. ZorakGrits! Space GhostBacon and grits! ZorakCheese toast! Space GhostFortified milk! ZorakDonkey Kong! Space GhostNope, I win.

David LanderHello, I'm Freddy Herbie. You know me, "I thought they was prunes!" Space GhostThey weren't prunes? What the heck were they? (pause) And now I'm having a new thought. One. One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do. (sings quietly) BooBoo, you're a fine cat, what a good wife you would be. Ohhh!! (puts hand over face) (Shot of Ghost Planet Industries building from outside, with dramatic music. BooBooKitty floats by) ZorakHey, you're outta toilet paper!

Moltar(sighs) Let me get my lumbar harness. (walks off) Space GhostI love beef logs, don't you? David LanderOh boy, do I. I'll tell ya, I really do. Space GhostDidja ever weigh yourself, then eat a whole beef log, then weigh yourself again? David LanderMmm, oh please, I'm hungry, and you're tellin' me beef log, oh, that's great. Space Ghost(quietly) BooBooKitty and I used to do that. David LanderYou ever throw one on the fire just to keep warm? Space GhostDidja ever make a baby with one? A beef log baby? You ever take 'em and make a little village full of beef log babies, and then they all rise up against you and try to kill your head? David Lander(long pause) Um, no. Space GhostThat's when I have to lie down. That reminds me of a joke! David LanderOkay, go ahead and tell me one. Space GhostThere's this guy, see, he's from Alabama. And he gets busted for tryin' to smuggle books, into Kentucky! David Lander(pauses, then nods) That's good, it has some... I guess it loses something in the, the translation, you know. Space GhostDid I mention that the guy from Alabama was my mother-in-law? (laughs) Hey, good night, everybody. David LanderYou might wanna, the next time you tell a joke, you might wanna say "And now the joke is over," and then the person can laugh, 'cause I think that's, that helps so much. ZorakI know a guy who had two noses. MoltarHow does he smell? ZorakAwful! (laughs) Moltar(laughs) That's right, he smells awful! (laughs) ZorakAnd now the joke's over. (Moltar keeps laughing) Space GhostI like those glasses you have. David LanderYeah? Space GhostYeah, there's really nothing that I don't like about you. Freddy, will you be my new roommate? David LanderThat's the main reason I'm on the show. Space GhostReally? Oh boy! Hey, you wanna put on some pressure suits and go outside and see my interplanetary monument to the safety pin? (dramatic music, BooBooKitty floats by outside the studio window, Space Ghost doesn't notice) I just erected it. (BooBooKitty floats toward giant open safety pin outside, dramatic music) MoltarHey, Space Ghost, look out the window. Space Ghost(sees BooBooKitty floating by) Well, BooBooKitty! Come crawlin' back to Daddy, huh? MoltarIsn't she drifting precariously close to your big pin? Space Ghost(gasps) Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... (BooBooKitty drifts closer to pin) Space Ghost...ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... (takes a breath) Nooooooooooooooooooooo... (BooBooKitty drifts closer and closer, finally connects with business end of safety pin, punctures & spins off out of control) Space GhostI warned Christo, I told him we needed a rubber safety tip! (as BooBooKitty jets by outside the window) Zorak(stares at Space Ghost) Space GhostWhat, you guys saw me, there's nothin' I could have done. ZorakYou could have gone out there and saved her. MoltarYeah, I mean, it would only have taken a second to move her out of the way. ZorakYeah, it's not like she was heavy or anything. MoltarI think you wanted her to die. Space GhostWell, I guess we'll never know, 'cause now I have a new pet! And he's the best and most favorite pet I've ever had! Billy the porpoise! See you back at the ranch, roomie! It's pizza night! (flies off) David LanderYeah, where do you guys go to eat? ZorakRock 'n Bowl, pizza in a cup. It's good.
