Brainy Smurf : [while Papa Smurf is away, Brainy prepares to "secretly borrow" one of the magical potions from Papa's laboratory. As usual, several other Smurfs attempt to dissuade Brainy from doing this] ... My dear fellow Smurfs! While I appreciate your concern, please rest assured that I know exactly what I'm smurfing here. And besides, what's the worst thing that could possibly happen?
[the other Smurfs roll their eyes]
Smurfette : Brainy. The last time you smurfed around with Papa Smurf's magic potions, you made my garden grow those huge Venus Smurf-traps that tried to eat us all up!
Grouchy Smurf : I hate Venus Smurf-traps...! Then again, what Smurf doesn't?
Painter Smurf : [speaking with his barely-comprehensible French accent] Oui! And the time before that, you caused every Smurf in the Village to smurf in a different language -- so that no Smurf could make heads or smurfs from what any other Smurf was smurfing!
Grouchy Smurf : I hate... what Painter just said.
Vanity Smurf : And the time before *that*, you caused every other Smurf in the Village to look and sound exactly like *me*! Oh, I never felt so smurfily plain, homely, even -- dare I say it -- ordinary!
Handy Smurf : And the time before THAT, you made all my inventions smurf to life and take over the Village!
Smurfette, Grouchy, Painter, Vanity, & Handy : [in unison] And the time before *THAT*...!
Brainy Smurf : Okay, okay; you've made your point! And I *do* learn from my smurf-ups... even though, I admit, that last one you nearly mentioned WAS pretty unsmurfy.
Smurfette, Grouchy, Painter, Vanity, & Handy : [in unison] *You're telling us!*
