Ren : You! You and your fan mail, Mr. Fan Club. Everyone love you, don't they? Well, guess what the mailman brought for you today? *Nothing!* This letter's for me! You, they have forgotten! Now it is me they love. It is I who am most loved! It is I who shall rule! You see? This is the proof that you are finished!
[Opens letter]
Ren : Listen! Listen to what it says. "Dear Ren: - That's me, that's me! - You are my favorite TV star." Are you getting this?
[Rubs the letter on Stimpy's face]
Ren : It's me they love! I am *king*! "When I grow up, I want to be just like you." How about that?
[Elbows Stimpy in the stomach; Stimpy doubles over with pain]
Ren : A man with some ambition! "You are my favorite person in the whole world. Love - He says love - Your friend... Stimpy"?

Ren : At last I have control of your TV set. Are you receiving me? Welcome to our secret headquarters.
Stimpy : Thousands of miles beneath the earth's crust.
Ren : Shut up you fool! How do we know we can trust them?
Stimpy : We could make them take the oath!
Ren : Perfect! The oath! Put your hand on the TV screen and repeat after me. I do hereby promise only to watch the Ren and Stimpy show. To make underleg noises during the good scenes. To wear unwashed Lederhosen every single day of the rest of my life! That's it, you're in our secret club! Alright Stimpy, they're OK. Show them the stuff.
Stimpy : Congratulations...
Ren : Shut up and show them.
Stimpy : I'm showing them, I'm showing them. OK kids, its time for a secret cartoon!

Ren : [afflicted with Space Madness and holding a bar of soap he's been chewing] Oh, no! I know what you want! You coveteth my ice cream bar!
Stimpy : Easy now...
Ren : [shouts] No you don't! You can't take it from me now!
[starts to cry]
Ren : I've had this ice cream bar since I was a child. People... always trying to take it from me... why... won't they leave me... *alone*!
[grabs a toothbrush]
Ren : [shouts] Don't make me use this! One step closer, I'm warning you! Don't make me use it!

Ren : Now you've done it! You forced me to use it!

Ren : Teeth to the left of me! Gums to the right of me! I tell you I can't stand it! I'm going *mad*!

[Ren is sitting at the foot of the bed, shaking and sweating]
Ren : I... I was nice today. Nice to those insipid little monkeys, answering their stupid letters. My hands... DIRTY! THE DIRT WON'T COME OFF!
[He screams]
Ren : President... Ha! What a joke. President. President of what? *His* fan club! How they love him! Look at him, lying asleeeeep. The idol of millions. He's a fool! A sad, silly little fool. How easily I could end the farce... with these hands! These DIRTY hands! AND WITH THESE HANDS I HOLD THE FATE OF MILLIONS! They think he's a god, but he's as mortal as we. I know! Just one squeeze... then it's over.
[Ren moves toward Stimpy menacingly]
Ren : Just... one... squeeze... AAAAH! It's happening again! MY BRAIN! MY HOT... STINGING... BRAIN!

Stimpy : So what'll happen?
Ren : That's just it. We don't know. Maybe something bad, maybe something good. I guess we'll never know, 'cause you're going to guard it. You won't touch it, will you?
