Quotes 

• Genius : This time I was sure I had it. It's a very elusive formula.

  Elsa : Had what, kiddo?

  Genius : Kiddo? I prefer to be called Genius, if you don't mind.

  Elsa : Okay, Genius, no offence. What formula?

  Genius : For the Goo. There's not much of it, and they want me to make some more. But it's not easy.

  Elsa : Why don't we go for a walk, Genius? I'll buy you an ice cream cone.

  Genius : I never touch it. It's high in cholesterol. But I'll go for a walk with you.

  Elsa : Okay.

• Genius : [about the chemicals he's mixed]  They're not compatible. This is supposed to blow up. I wonder why it doesn't?

  Nancy : You and I aren't going to be very compatible either, Genius, if you don't get out of here.

  Genius : I wonder what you see in her.

  Mike : I don't know either. But, uh, whatever it is, I like it.

• Mike : Who got the Goo?

  Genius : They got it. One of them ran off with it. I was going to stop him, but...

  Nancy : But what?

  Genius : Reasons of pure logic. He was bigger than me.

• Mike : That cat was eating that. What've we got here?

  Genius : I suppose the correct name would be ammonia actride sulfate diethyl chloricin. Perhaps we ought to call it Goo.

• Mike : Who got the Goo?

  Genius : They got it.

• Genius : I have nitric acid and calcium chloride. If you give me some vodka, I can make you some diethylene then very easily.

  Horsey : Vodka? Dig this crazy kid.
