    Demoted general

    Solid goosebumps episode, the effects worked well and the storyline was interesting. The kids were a bit annoying and the general got what he deserved.

    • Quotes

      Mindy Burton: Oh, there's my juvenile delinquent brother.

      Joe Burton: I'm telling you, Mindy, I didn't do anything.

      Mindy Burton: Yeah, right. Wanna play ring toss? The gnomes' pointy heads will make perfect targets.

      Joe Burton: How about your pointy head?

      Mindy Burton: You are so immature.

      [Mindy tosses a ring onto the Gnome and it lands right on]

      Mindy Burton: Perfect.

      Joe Burton: I'm telling you, Mindy, I didn't smash his stupid melons.

      Mindy Burton: Then who did?

      Joe Burton: I don't know, but if I did, I'd shake his hand.

      [Joe tosses a ring and misses]

      Mindy Burton: Nice one.

      [Major MaCall sees them playing ring toss]

      Major McCall: Is that what your father calls punishment? Playing games with those ugly pieces of junk?

      Mindy Burton: Take it easy, Joe.

      Major McCall: You just try coming in my yard again. I'll be waiting next time, son. Yes sir! You can bet that.

      Mindy Burton: I know he's a jerk but you'd better listen to Dad and stay out of his way.
