Danny Bonaduce credited as playing...
Danny Partridge
- Danny: ...Don't you think one genius in the family is enough?
- Keith: Who might that be?
- Danny: Modesty prevents me from stating the obvious.
- Shirley Renfrew Partridge: Danny...!
- Danny: Well, at least I know my limitations. All I want to be is Howard Hughes.
- Keith: Then why don't you disappear?
- Danny: I refuse to get into a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
- Danny: I've been a kid, and I've been an adult. And believe me, adultery isn't what it's cracked up to be.
- Danny: ...Keith, that's the meanest, rottenest and dirtiest trick anyone can play on his sister. No wonder you're my idol.
- Danny: You can't blame me. I'm just a kid.
- Reuben Kincaid: No, you're not. You're a midget in a kid suit.
- Reuben Kincaid: Danny, if you'd like to go to the beach with me, I'll let you swim in the riptide.
- Danny: Riptides are dangerous.
- Reuben Kincaid: Aw, who told you that?
- Shirley Renfrew Partridge: There's no sense in waiting up. Laurie's in good hands.
- Danny: That's what I'm afraid of.
- Keith: ...I wouldn't worry about him. He's an archaeologist. He can always dig up a girl.
- Christopher "Chris" Partridge #2: C'mon, let's play a game, Mr. Kincaid.
- Tracy Partridge: Yeah, let's play a game.
- Reuben Kincaid: Okay, okay. Let's play a game called "Lost."
- Danny: How do you play?
- Reuben Kincaid: Well, I'll hide my eyes and you three kids run away from home - far and fast - and keep running until you're lost.
- Tracy Partridge: Then what?
- Reuben Kincaid: In three weeks, I'll come look for you. If I find you, I lose.
- Tracy Partridge: What if you *don't* find us?
- Reuben Kincaid: Well, then I win.
- Danny: ...A Partridge never forgets. I have a photographic mind.
- Laurie Partridge: Sure you do; unfortunately, you always forget to load the film in it.
- Tracy Partridge: ...If six ducks are on a pond and three more ducks land on the pond, what would you have?
- Danny: Several hundred duck hunters.
- Danny: ...Chris, Tracy, you'll both understand when you're my age... although *I'm* my age and *I* don't understand.
- Danny: [Keith and Danny are waiting for Laurie to come home from a date with a minister. She enters the front door] Well?
- Laurie Partridge: Well, what?
- Keith: Tell us what a minister does on a date!
- Danny: I bet he took you to see the Ten Commandments.
- Keith: No. Too racy.
- Laurie Partridge: What makes you think we went to a movie?
- Keith: C'mon, fill us in on the details.
- Laurie Partridge: You really want to know where we went?
- Keith: Yeah.
- Laurie Partridge: Well, we couldn't decide on what movie to see, so... We went straight to Muldoon's Point.
- [she goes upstairs]
- Danny: I wonder how *he* explains lipstick on his collar?
- Shirley Renfrew Partridge: Danny, when will Keith be able to pay back the money he owes us?
- Danny: If I have it my way, he'll be able to pay in about a year.
- Keith: A year!
- Danny: If Keith has it his way, we'll have to wait for the reading of his will.
- Keith: [the Partridge Family bus detours through the woods en route to their next gig. Danny takes Chris and Tracy for a walk. Tracy and Chris return sans Danny; both are covered with mud, and beaming excitedly] What happened to you guys? You're a mess!
- Tracy Partridge: Danny found this great place to play!
- Shirley Renfrew Partridge: And he didn't come back with you two? Where *is* Danny?
- Danny: [off in the distance] HEEELP!
- [That "great place to play" turns out to be a pool of quicksand]
