Jimmy's Ambitious Communication Experiment
Judy Neutron
James Isaac Neutron! I see you up there. How many times have we told you not to launch yourself off the roof?
Jimmy Neutron
Probably 9. Exactly 9. They say repetition is good for a developing brain.
Judy Neutron
Then what do you think you're doing?
Jimmy Neutron
Last night I got a message from space, but it was garbled in the ionosphere, so I had to launch a communications toaster...I mean, satellite. And then when I tried...
Hugh Neutron
Well, message from space. Wow.
Judy Neutron
Don't encourage him, Hugh. Jimmy, we've repeatedly told you not to talk to strangers.
Jimmy Neutron
But, Mom, I'm on the verge of contact with an advanced alien civilization.
Judy Neutron
I don't care how advanced they say they are, Jimmy. If your father and I haven't met them, they're strangers. Right, Hugh?
Hugh Neutron
Well, except for policemen. They're there to help you. Oh, you've got to admit that is pretty neat. But very unsafe, honey. That's bad.
[Jimmy and Goddard looks at each other, Goddard uses his ears as 'helicopter' to get Jimmy down from the roof; Judy glares at Hugh sternly; gives a thumbs up as Judy rolls her eyes and shakes her head]

Reflections on Growing Up and Consequences

Jimmy's a big boy now. Don't you worry, sugar.

I suppose you're right.

Yeah, sure. I was a kid once. I remembered being grounded for a whole week and not being allowed to go to my best friend's bachelor party.
[picks up the shrink ray, mistaking it for a TV remote and shrinks the TV]
Judy
Well, what did you do?
Hugh
Well, actually, I snuck out.
[enlarges the TV and shrinks Judy's head]
Judy
You don't think that Jimmy...
[high-pitched voice]
Hugh
Oh, no, no. Besides, how's he gonna sneak out? It's not like he can just walk right out the front door.
[enlarges her head normal-sized again]
Judy
That's true.
