Quotes 

• Charlie Hinton : Okay, this is it. Time to give 'em a summer they'll never forget.

  [bus crashes into cabin] 

  Phil : They won't forget that.

• Phil : I've gotta drop the kids off at the pool.

  Juliette : We have a pool?

  Phil : Uh, no.

• [Buck is missing; Charlie and the kids are doing stretches; Phil approaches] 

  Phil : No news yet on Buck. I have Margaret driving all over town, but I *did* find this in your office.

  [hands Charlie a note] 

  Charlie Hinton : Oh. "Charlie, Uncle Sam called about another job, which is just as well, seeing as things aren't working out here, your tough Colonel Buck."

  Phil : I'll keep looking.

  [leaves] 

  Charlie Hinton : OK.

  Juliette : [sees the note]  Is that from Grandpa?

  Charlie Hinton : [turns to face the kids]  Uh, yes. Yes, it is.

  Carl : He's not coming back?

  Charlie Hinton : Well, no.

  Max : He's the one that showed us how to do *everything*!

  Billy : Yeah! We're gonna get whooped, and *I* don't get whooped! I *do* the whooping!

  Becca : We're doomed! *Doomed*, I tell you!

  Charlie Hinton : Wait, wait, wait. Wait a minute, all right? Just because Buck got called away to serve his country in the middle of the night doesn't mean we just take everything he taught us and just let it go to waste.

  Juliette : He deserted us.

  Robert : Without so much as a "see ya."

  Charlie Hinton : No. No, no, no, no, no. He didn't. No-ho, it's here in the letter, listen. Listen. "Dear Ben, Max, Juliette, Robert, Carl, Jack, uh, Becca, Billy and Mullet. I'm sorry to leave in the middle of the night..."

  [motions to Robert] 

  Charlie Hinton : "... without even saying see ya..."

  [Robert nods] 

  Charlie Hinton : "... but it's important that you don't panic. The 103rd Airborne is staging manoeuvres tonight, and-- Well, let's just say they could learn a thing or two about teamwork from you guys."

  Becca : The 103rd was retired after World War Two.

  Charlie Hinton : Tell you what? They're bringing it back.

  Jack : We can't do this without Buck.

  Juliette , Carl , Max , Billy , Becca , Robert , Ben : Yeah.

  Charlie Hinton : Sure we can. And you know what? He would've *wanted* it that way. You know why? Because we're a family. And we're gonna pull each other up, because that's what families do.

  Ben : Well, if family's so important, why'd Grandpa Buck leave?

  Juliette , Carl , Max , Billy , Becca , Robert , Jack : Yeah.

  [Charlie's smile fades; shaking their heads, the disappointed kids skalk off] 

• [from trailer] 

  Ben : There it is!

  Charlie Hinton : Camp Driftwood! We were here when we were kids.

  Phil : We don't know how to run a camp!

  Charlie Hinton : Yes, but we didn't know how to run a day care centre either.

  Narrator : What could possibly go wrong?

• Dale : What *else* can go wrong?

  Charlie Hinton : No, please! Don't say that!

  [the bathroom explodes; the children scream; Phil is covered in soot, his pants are down and the toilet seat is around his neck] 

  Phil : I think we're gonna need more toilet paper.
