Quotes 

• Topanga Lawrence : If something's wrong, you can tell me. It's not like I don't care about you.

  Madame Ouspenskaya : [in Cory's head]  You will kill the one girl who cares for you.

  Cory Matthews : Listen to me, you can't care for me, okay? If you do, only harm will come to you. It will never work out between the two of us!

  Topanga Lawrence : Cory, get a grip. We're only going to a Halloween party.

  Cory Matthews : Yeah, that's how it starts! Then we get married, have kids, and I eat them!

• Cory Matthews : [writing a letter]  So I hope that you will all forgive me, so that I now can escape my destiny. Fondly, Cory A.O. Matthews.

  Shawn Hunter : What does A.O. stand for?

  Cory Matthews : Ah-ooh.

• Cory Matthews : Look at me. Tell me what you see.

  Topanga Lawrence : I see you.

  Cory Matthews : No you don't. You see hair and teeth and the beast within me.

  Topanga Lawrence : No! I see Cory. The same Cory I've known since I was three.

  Cory Matthews : I'm not a wolf? I'm not a wolf! I'm not a wolf!

  [they kiss deeply] 

  Topanga Lawrence : Yes, you are.

  Cory Matthews : AAAAH-OOOOH!

• Shawn Hunter : Hey, since you're becoming a werewolf, can I have your autographed Lenny Dykstra ball?

  Cory Matthews : Not my ball!

  Shawn Hunter : Cory, you don't need it. You're a wolf.

  Cory Matthews : I can still fetch.

• Cory Matthews : Eric, what you're about to see may shock you.

  Eric Matthews : Then put a towel on.

  Cory Matthews : Okay, look!

  [comes out with his arms thrown in the air, completely normal] 

  Eric Matthews : Oh, my God! I don't see anything at all!

• George Feeny : Mr. Matthews. I wouldn't take out that garbage, if I were you.

  Cory Matthews : I had to. It was starting to move.

• George Feeny : Mr. Matthews, no running in the halls, we are not animals.

  Cory Matthews : AAA-OOOOOH!

  [keeps running] 

• Cory Matthews : [holding a picture frame]  Is this silver? Can I melt this down?

  Alan Matthews : Cory, do you know what hormones are?

  Cory Matthews : I bet I could get five, six bullets out of this.

  Alan Matthews : Do you know what raging hormones are?

  Cory Matthews : Yeah, it's one of those rides.

• Cory Matthews : 8:35. I'm drooling more than usual. The change into wolfdom is upon me.

• Madame Ouspenskaya : Come to me, werewolf boy.

  Cory Matthews : How did you know?

  Madame Ouspenskaya : I know many things. I know you were bitten by a wolf.

  Cory Matthews : It's true.

  Madame Ouspenskaya : I know you are now becoming a wolf.

  Cory Matthews : That's amazing!

  Madame Ouspenskaya : I know you are recently divorced.

  Cory Matthews : What?

  Madame Ouspenskaya : You're not Billy Joel?

  Cory Matthews : No.

  Madame Ouspenskaya : Well, then you're just a wolf.

• Cory Matthews : Listen, I gotta tell somebody. Shawn, I am one of the undead creatures of the night!

  Shawn Hunter : Cory, you can't fool your best friend. Something's bothering you isn't it?

• George Feeny : Mr. Matthews, I wouldn't be taking out that garbage if I were you.

  Cory Matthews : I had to. It was starting to move.

  George Feeny : Haven't you heard?

  Cory Matthews : I haven't heard anything. I live upstairs.

  George Feeny : Well, it seems that a wolf escaped from the Philadelphia Zoo. Authorities believe that it may well be somewhere in our area.

  Cory Matthews : A wolf? Out here in the 'burbs?

  George Feeny : Yes. Probably looking for better schools.

  Cory Matthews : So, how come you're taking your garbage back inside the house?

  George Feeny : Wolves have a keen sense of smell. The garbage would only attract them.

  Cory Matthews : So, your plan is to lure them into your living room?

  George Feeny : Scoff if you will, but as acting head of the neighborhood watch I have duly warned you.

• Shawn Hunter : There's no way you were bitten by a wolf.

  Cory Matthews : Shawn, what else could it have been? I mean, look at the bite.

  Shawn Hunter : I don't see anything.

  Cory Matthews : Of course you don't. Everybody knows werewolf bites heal overnight.

  Cory Matthews : Wow. Then you're covered with 'em.

• Cory Matthews : Any special flavors?

  Frank : Yeah, we got Bucket of Blood. That's like strawberry. We got Bucket of Guts. That's more or less chocolate. And we got Smashed and Severed Intestines. I don't recommend that

  Cory Matthews : Can you mix blood and guts?

  Frank : All the time.

  [He walks off to get Cory's yogurt] 

  Radio Host : The search for the missing wolf continues and, with today being Halloween, police report a number of prank calls from people claiming to have seen wolves and even

  [chuckles] 

  Radio Host : werewolves.

  Cory Matthews : Werewolves. Isn't that silly?

  [Frank stares at Cory solemnly] 

  Cory Matthews : Isn't it?

  Frank : There are things and there are *things*

  Cory Matthews : You mean there are things such as werewolves?

  Frank : There are places where such things are revealed. For five dollars complete.

  [Cory gives Frank a wad of bills who lifts up the counter] 

  Frank : Come with me werewolf boy.

• Cory Matthews : Madame Ouspenskaya, everything you predicted has come true.

  Madame Ouspenskaya : No kidding! Mind if I use you for a reference?

  Cory Matthews : Listen, I found out there *is* a girl who cares for me, just like you said.

  Madame Ouspenskaya : Well, have you killed her yet?

  Cory Matthews : No.

  Madame Ouspenskaya : Well, why not?

  Cory Matthews : I don't know.

• Cory Matthews : Topanga, I warned you not to...

  [He notices her costume] 

  Cory Matthews : ... Oh, boy, why'd you have to wear that?

  Topanga Lawrence : Because I'm a damsel. But not the distressed kind. One who is very together and in complete control of her own destiny.

• Cory Matthews : Isn't there an antidote or something?

  Madame Ouspenskaya : That's easy. Wear a garlic necklace and get back in your coffin!

  Cory Matthews : No, I'm not a vampire. I'm a werewolf.

  Madame Ouspenskaya : Tomatoes, tamah-toes. As long as you're not my son.

• Cory Matthews : Mr. Fenny, you're putting your garbage back outside again. What about the wolf?

  George Feeny : Didn't you hear? He was in the zoo the whole time. They found him in the aviary, dining on a cockatoo.

  Cory Matthews : So he never really escaped at all?

  George Feeny : Funny how rumors start, isn't it?

  [Mr. Feeny picks up a soda can and shakes it] 

  George Feeny : Drat. Well, good night, Mr. Matthews.

  [He walks away] 

  Cory Matthews : Wait a minute. No wolf? Well, then, what was...?

  [the bushes rustle] 

  Cory Matthews : Oh, it's you again, isn't it? All right, come here, you creature of the night. Come out, you demon beast. Come out!

  [a brown rabbit jumps out of the bush] 

  Cory Matthews : A rabbit.

  [Cory picks it up] 

  Cory Matthews : A fuzzy, cuddly rabbit. I got all worked up over you?

  [the rabbit growls ferociously] 

  Cory Matthews : That's better.

  [Cory puts the rabbit down and runs back inside the house] 

• Amy Matthews : Cory.

  Cory Matthews : Alright. I'm a hairy mess. Get out your Epilady and just do me.

  Amy Matthews : No, sweetheart, I was just gonna say don't forget your lunch.

  Cory Matthews : It's okay, I'll kill something at school.

  Alan Matthews : I sense there's something on your mind.

  Cory Matthews : Well, it's just this uh math problem I've been working on.

  [opens his textbook] 

  Cory Matthews : If a werewolf leaves a train station going forty miles an hour and another werewolf leaves at sixty miles an hour, do werewolves exist?

  Alan Matthews : Is this about the wolf that escaped from the zoo?

  Cory Matthews : Could be.

  Alan Matthews : Cory, werewolves don't exist. Relax. It's just a myth. You know as you get older, you'll learn to seperate myth from reality.

  [Alan picks up a soda can, shakes it, listening. He sets it down and then he does the same thing with two more cans] 

  Cory Matthews : What are you doing?

  Alan Matthews : Uh, one of our soda distributors heard about this guy who robbed a jewelry store and made off with five diamond rings.

  Amy Matthews : And he hid those diamond rings in five cans of soda, thus your father and other grown-ups who can separate myth from reality have been boosting soda sales.

  Alan Matthews : It's a three karat diamond, babe.

  [Amy picks up a can and shakes it] 

  Amy Matthews : I'm so thirsty.

• Cory Matthews : [writing in a journal]  8:35. I'm drooling more than usual. The change into wolfdom is upon me.

• Alan Matthews : You're going through some changes, aren't you?

  Cory Matthews : Yes, I am.

  Alan Matthews : You know what those changes are?

  Cory Matthews : Seriously? No kidding?

  Alan Matthews : Yeah.

  Cory Matthews : I'm a werewolf. Ah-ooo.

  Alan Matthews : Of course you are. And if you misbehave as a werewolf, I'll be happy to shoot you. But on the off chance that you're turning into a man and not a wolf, this could just be the beginning of adulthood.

  Cory Matthews : Dad, I'm not becoming a man. I'm becoming man's best friend

• Cory Matthews : I'm a werewolf. Ah-ooh.

  Alan Matthews : [chuckling]  Of course you are, and if you misbehave as a werewolf I'll be happy to shoot you. But on the off chance that you're turning into a man and not a wolf, this could just be the beginning of adulthood.

  Cory Matthews : Dad, I'm not becoming a man. I'm becoming man's best friend.
