Max: Compliance!
Max: See ya later, Navigator!
Max: I do not leak, you leak!
Max: I crashed into electrical towers and my star charts were erased. I need the ones in your head to complete my mission. David: So you need ME and my INFERIOR brain to fly that thing? Max: Correction, I need the SUPERIOR information in your INFERIOR brain to fly this... thing.
Jeff Freeman, 16 Years: Don't take any shit, David!
Woman Officer: David, what is the date today? David: [sighs] It's the Fourth of July. Woman Officer: And what year? David: [impatiently] 1978! Detective Banks: [a beat] David... who is the President of the United States? David: Duh. You need that for your paperwork? Detective Banks: Mmm-hmm. [long pause] Detective Banks: Well? David: It's Jimmy Carter! David: [long, awkward pause as the Woman Officer and Detective Banks look at David, then at each other]
Jeff Freeman, 16 Years: This is totally rad, dude! You're my big little brother!
Carolyn McAdams: All right, listen, um, I gotta go, um, is there anything else you want when I come back? David: How about a Big Mac, large fries and a Coke? They're still around, I hope. Carolyn McAdams: Well, now, that all depends, Do you want New Coke, Classic Coke, Cherry Coke, Diet Coke or caffeine-free Coke? David: Huh? Carolyn McAdams: Nothing, Forget it.
[after stopping at a pasture, David steps off the ship to urinate] Max: What are you doing? David: Can't I have a little privacy? Max: Do not know privacy.
David: My dad took me to see the Bee Gees a couple months ago. Who did you see? Carolyn McAdams: Twisted Sister. David: Never heard of her. Carolyn McAdams: It's a him. David: Oh. Carolyn McAdams: Actually, it's a them.
David: What are we doing all the way up here you geek? Max: Geek? David: I swear to God if I was driving this thing we'd be home by now! Max: Oh yeah? David: Yeah! Max: Oh yeah? David: Yeah! Max: Ok turkey YOU fly it [Max turns everything off]
David: [David looks at a gooey alien] What's this? Max: A very unpleasant creature. David: What's his problem? Max: He has a cold.
Max: I told you, I blew a fuse when I totaled that electrical tower. I was checking out some daisies. David: You crashed while looking at FLOWERS?
Max: Are we there yet? Where are we anyway? David: Geez, I have no idea where we are. We got to get directions. Max, David: [they hear "Trapped in My Mind" coming from a convertible on the highway] Hmm. David: I wonder if that's that Twisted Sister stuff Carolyn was talking about. Teen in Car: Come on. David: [they lower the space ship beside the car at a stop sign] Hi, you wouldn't happen to know the way to Fort Lauderdale, would you? Max: [Max sticks his 'head' out] Try to make your directions clear because we get lost easy. Teen in Car: [freaking out] Fly! [they speed off] Max: Hey! Thanks for nothing!... Were those geeks, David? David: Yes, Max. Those were geeks.
[Alien eats David's hat] Max: That could have been your head David.
David: That's it? Max: That's it, Davy! David: Davy? Max: If you wanna learn how to swim, you have to jump in the water. Don't forget to feed Bruiser. Two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun... Whoa! I think I got some stuff out of your head that has nothing to do with navigating this ship! David: You sound just like a human! Max: No! That dumb dog will never learn to catch a frisbee. You are the inferior species, you dumb dork! David: Buttface! Max: Scuz-bucket! Ha-ha!
David: [flying into Florida] Al's Gator City... This must be Florida, Max! Max: And that must be Big Al!
David Scott Freeman: Where do you go next, Max? Max: Back in time to when I picked up my creatures. By now they're so hungry, they could eat a zigzog. David Scott Freeman: What's a zigzog? Max: Kind of like a hippo, but with feathers.
David Scott Freeman: Mom... have I really been gone eight years? Helen Freeman: Yeah. David Scott Freeman: It's like a bad dream.
Max: Ooh, a threat. Look, I'm really shaking!
Max: [Last line] See ya later navigator haha.
