Buttercup Quotes

	Season 1 / Episode 3: - Monkey See, Doggie Do / Mommy Fearest Buttercup: [to Blossom] Well, I've had it with your leadership!
	Unknown Episode: Blossom: We're the Powerpuff Girls. Buttercup: We fight crime. Blossom: That's what we do. Bubbles: Duh.
	Unknown Episode: Steve: Better heroes, huh? Listen, girls. My name is Steve. I'm a monster. I've been coming here for three days, causing all sorts of damage to your town. And what do I get? Two days of no-shows, and now this. A flag girl who does rope tricks, some rabbit, and Little Miss Darkness who's afraid of a little sun. Buttercup: Hey! Do you have any idea who you're talking to? Bubbles: We're superheroes! Blossom: Real ones! Steve: Yeah, well, that's great and all, but what am I supposed to tell the guys back on Monster Isle? You see, when a monster visits Townsville, he must fight the Powerpuff Girls. And if he can hold his own and make it back to Monster Isle alive, he's a hero. Now this new bit is just not gonna cut it. Sure, you didn't have a thirst for vengeance, stickers with your face on them, or souped-up vehicles, cause you didn't need them! See? Even if you take away the costumes, props, and angst, you still have all the bravery and courage it takes to save the day. So what do you say? Powerpuff Girls? Blossom: Let's get him, girls! Steve: Now that's better!
	Unknown Episode: Bubbles: [wearing glasses] What? What? What's so funny? Blossom: Oh, nothing... Buttercup: Dork! Bubbles: [looks in the mirror] I do look like a dork. Buttercup: No, you don't. Blossom: Yeah. You look like a nerd.
	Unknown Episode: Bubbles: I'm back! Blossom: Well, what a sight for sore eyes! Buttercup: It's old four-eyes! Bubbles: Hey! You said you were just kidding! Buttercup: We were! Blossom: About being just kidding!
	Unknown Episode: Mayor: Thanks to you girls, Townsville is safe. And my hat is back in its proper place. How can I ever repay you for saving the day? Blossom: No payment necessary, Mayor. Buttercup: We were just doing our job. Bubbles: We're superheroes! Mayor: Yes, but I'm the Mayor! How about a statue? Powerpuff Girls Day? Mayor: No? Well, then at least take some candy. Blossom: Thanks, Mayor, but the Professor says we aren't allowed to have any... Blossom: Hey! Well, okay. Maybe this one piece won't hurt.
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: [to the hotline] RING ALREADY! Blossom: Forget it, Buttercup. There's just nothing going on. No crimes, no monsters, no nothing. Bubbles: I could sure use a piece of candy right about now. Blossom: But the mayor said... Buttercup: [immitating the mayor] Blah blah blah blah blah blah, save the day!
	Unknown Episode: Bubbles: Let's go get her! Buttercup: Yeah! I see a knuckle sandwich in her future!
	Unknown Episode: Blossom: [in an overlarge trenchcoat wearing a fedora] Thank you for coming. We are in need of your services. Just do what you do best. Bubbles: [at coat's midsection] Then take the fall. Buttercup: [at coat's hem] And we bust you out the next day. Mysterious Shadow Figure: Hmmm... Blossom: We know you can't resist this oppurtunity. Bubbles: What do you say...? Buttercup: ...pal?
	Unknown Episode: Bubbles: I feel weird about lying to the Professor. Blossom: A little white lie is okay. Besides, it'll all turn out good 'cause we're good. Bubbles: And more of us will only be gooder. Buttercup: Yeah, good. Blossom: And Professor Dick is good, right? And he's only interested in good and goodness. Good? Bubbles: Good. Blossom: Good? Buttercup: Good. Blossom: Good? Girls: Good night.
	Unknown Episode: Blossom: What have we done? Look at us. Look at Mojo. This isn't who we are. This is crazy! Bubbles: But what about the candy? Buttercup: Don't you see, Bubbles? Blossom: It was the candy that did this to us. The candy made us something we're not.
	Unknown Episode: Blossom: Man, Bubbles, we really underestimated you. Buttercup: And you know what? Bubbles: [angrily] WHAT? Buttercup: You're hard core! Bubbles: [sweetly] Really? Hee hee hee! Aw, shucks! And girls, I'm sorry for running off. Mojo would never have gotten me if I had you two to look out for me. Blossom: Team? Buttercup: Team. Bubbles: Team.
	Unknown Episode: Girls: Mayor? Buttercup: We brought your candy back. Bubbles: And Mojo too! See? He... wasn't... really... bad after all. It... Blossom: We're sorry, Mayor. Bubbles: We want to apologize. Blossom: Okay, you don't have to look at us, but at least hear us out. You see, we convinced Mojo to commit crimes. Buttercup: Then we could save the day... Bubbles: ...and get rewarded with candy. Blossom: But then Mojo and the candy got the better of us. Buttercup: We were out of control Bubbles: We're sorry. Mayor: And you yelled at me! Girls: We're sorry. Mayor: You poor girls, caught up in all that! Blossom: So you forgive us? Mayor: Well, you did make a mistake, but you realized what wrong you caused and set things right by telling the truth. And for that, you deserve a reward! Blossom: Oh, Mayor, after all the trouble we caused? Mayor: All righty, if that's the way you feel. Blossom: Maybe just one piece.
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: It's about time the Mayor filled that giant pothole. Bubbles: I think it's nice that the Mayor is keeping Townsville nice. Bubbles: Uh, filling potholes is his job, Bubbles. Being nice has nothing to do with it.
	Unknown Episode: Professor Utonium: Girls, time to get up. Breakfast is ready. Buttercup: Bacon and eggs? Bubbles: Waffles? Blossom: French toast? Professor Utonium: Liver and onions. Buttercup: Liver and onions? I hate liver and onions! This stuff isn't even fit for a dog to eat! Bubbles: That's it! We'll feed it to our dog. Buttercup: Duh! We don't have a dog!
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: [imitating the Professor] Remember, girls, it's where all movies came from. Blossom: [joking] No, they didn't. They came from cans.
	Unknown Episode: Mayor: Girls, we have a situation of gastronomic proportions! Buttercup: What exactly did he say? Blossom: Some mumbo jumbo about a monster, a revolting stench - I don't know. Bubbles: Maybe the mayor wasn't talking about that?
	Unknown Episode: Professor Utonium: Girls! It's really you! Oh, you're floating, you have big eyes, no fingers, and superpowers! Buttercup: Yep, he finally cracked.
	Unknown Episode: Blossom: That's it! Buttercup: He's done it! Bubbles: Mojo has managed to bring Townsville to a complete standstill by having all of the people speak in the most lengthy of questions and redundant answers! Thus, nothing can be asked or answered without the verbosity of words causing the city to come to a permanent and most painful halt. Furthermore... Blossom, Buttercup: Bubbles! Bubbles: Sorry.
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: Oh, this isn't going to work. Bubbles: Certainly not if our wish is to remedy this situation, which is currently lacking closure... Blossom, Buttercup: Bubbles!
	Unknown Episode: Blossom: Someone has to retach him. Buttercup: But do we know whose English is good enough to reverse the effects of Mo' Linguish and retrain all these people to speak properly, thus eliminating the circular pattern in which they are speaking? Darn it! Now I'm doing it!
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: Have you made any progress? Professor Utonium: Girls, check this out. I've invented a DNA-based, vector-sensitive, target-seeking computer virus, which if remotely uploaded to the target individual's communications peripherals, will directly enter their sensory system, causing the individual to cluck uncontrollably, like a chicken; develop incurable rashes - with or without excess body hair; hideous screaming follows, and finally - ha ha! Total meltdown! Bubbles: Um, that's cool, but will it help us catch Mask Scara? Professor Utonium: Well, no.
	Unknown Episode: Bubbles: We'll be forced into hard labor by evil-forced cobbler elves! Buttercup: Evil-forced cobbler elves? Bubbles: Well... yeah.
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: Wait! Wait! Wait! Let me get this straight. You asked a psychic for decisions on municipal issues? Mayor: No, no, of course not. That would be silly. I got advice from a dead relative.
	Unknown Episode: Blossom: Who filmed this, anyway? Buttercup: Yeah, do you have cameras all over the world? Mojo Jojo: Yes! Now shut up!
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: [running] I'm using muscles I never even knew I had!
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: Can't you abacus any faster? Blossom: Aba-kiss my butt!
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: We've never walked to school before. Bubbles: Yeah. It's fun! But it takes a lot longer.
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: Ouch! The broccoli's on the roof! Blossom: Happy to you, log pony!
	Unknown Episode: Buttercup: Fighting robot? For what? Professor Utonium: So all the nerds out there will think I'm cool.
