[Uncle Albert had been asked if there is a way to get down from being up in the air] Uncle Albert : There is a way. And frankly, I don’t like to think of it, because you have to think of something sad. Mary Poppins : Then do get on with it, please. Uncle Albert : Let me see… I have the very thing: Yesterday, when the lady next door answered the door, there was a man there, and the man said to the lady, “I’m terribly sorry, I just ran over your cat.” [Jane and Michael descend from being up in the air] Jane : Oh, that is sad. Michael : The poor cat. Uncle Albert : And the man said, “I’d like to replace your cat.” And the lady said, “That’s all right with me, but how are you with catching mice?” [then they all burst out laughing and Jane and Michael re-ascend back to the tea table in the air] ---

Now see, we’re sitting down here–ready to negotiate. And you’ve already given up your shit. I’m still a mystery to you. But I know exactly where your white ass is comin’ from. So if I ask if you want some dinner, and you grab an egg roll and started chattin’ down, I’d say to myself “This motherfucker, he’s givin’ out like he ain’t got a care in the world” and who knows? Maybe he don’t. Maybe this fool is such a bad motherfucker. He don’t have to worry about nothin’. He just sits down and watch my motherfuckin’ TV. See? (True Romance) ---
