Hostage Negotiator By The Water Prints

'There. See? Your buddy is OK. Now show us our guy before we make the swap.'

"You're 5 years old now, Timmy. It's about time you retain an attorney."

"You can build it with me, but you can't wreck it with me."

"Instead of taking a bath can I wear a flea collar?"

'First, I'd like to list the mitigating circumstances.'

'He's trying to talk them into giving themselves up!'

"Well, so far I'm managing to stay above the fray."

"After all the trouble I've been in lately, I decided to hire a PR firm to repair my image."

"My therapist says you have to at least meet me half way."

'Once they noticed your tail wagging, they stopped upping their offer.'

'Damn it, he's lawyered up! By the time this works its way through the courts he'll be out of season!'

'I'll do your taxes for you, daddy, if you'll color these silly homework pictures for me.'

"We're offering twenty million plus incentives over a four-year period, Mrs. Morton. Can Timmy come out and play?"

'This bathroom ain't big enough for the both of us.'

"Okay, it's a deal...you two pay me the same amount as your parents are, and I'll let you stay up an extra two hours."

"The teacher says I'm a poor listener, Dad. Will you raise my allowance?"

'It's a deal. You buy my insurance and I'll buy your knitted booties.'

"Can you lend me a book?"
