Jack Skellington : [singing] My dearest friend, if you don't mind... I'd like to join you by your side. Where we can gaze into the stars...
Jack Skellington , Sally : And sit together, now and forever. For it is plain, as anyone can see. We're simply meant to be.
-
Jack Skellington : And one more thing...
[stops Barrel from leaving]
Jack Skellington : leave that no-account Oogie-Boogie out of this!
Barrel : Whatever you say, Jack.
Shock : Of course, Jack.
Lock : Wouldn't dream of it, Jack.
[a view from behind reveals their fingers are crossed]
-
Sally : [singing] What will become of my dear friend? / Where will his actions lead us then? / Oh, how I'd like to join the crowd / In their enthusiastic cloud. / Try as I may, it doesn't last. / And will we ever / End up together? / No, I think not. / It's never to become, / For I am not the one.

Dr. Finkelstein : Sally! You came back.
Sally : I had to.
Dr. Finkelstein : For this.
[holds Sally's detached arm; she causes it to wave at herself]
Sally : [smiles] Yes.
Dr. Finkelstein : Shall we, then?

Lock , Barrel , Shock : Jack! Jack! We caught him, we caught him.
Jack Skellington : Perfect! Open it up. Quickly!
[opens it up to reveal the Easter bunny]
Jack Skellington : That's not Sandy Claws!
Lock , Barrel , Shock : It isn't?
Lock : Who is it?
[the Easter bunny hops up a set of steps and up to the Behemouth, sniffing him - he points at it]
Behemoth : Bunny!
[it leaps back into the covered tub, terrified]
Jack Skellington : Not Sandy Claws... Take him back!
Lock : We followed your instructions...
Barrel : We went through the door...
Jack Skellington : Which door? There's more than one! Sandy Claws is behind the door shaped like this.
[shows them a Christmas cookie in shape of tree]
Shock : I told you!
[Lock and Shock fight, Jack buries his face in his hand and after a moment stretches out his jaw and screams]
Jack Skellington : [to the Easter bunny] I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, sir.
[turns to Lock, Shock and Barrel]
Jack Skellington : Take him home first. And apologize again. Be careful with Sandy Claws when you fetch him. Treat him nicely.
Barrel : Got it.
Shock : We'll get it right...
-
Jack Skellington : The job I have for you is top secret. It requires skill, craft, cunning, mis...
Shock : And we thought you didn't *like* us, Jack.

Sally : Lunch!
Dr. Finkelstein : Mm, what's this?
[sniffs]
Dr. Finkelstein : Wormswort! Mmm...
[prepares to take a bite but then sniffs suspiciously]
Dr. Finkelstein : ...And frog's breath?
Sally : [innocently] What's wrong? I thought you *liked* frog's breath.
Dr. Finkelstein : Nothing's more suspicious than frog's breath! Until *you* taste it, I won't swallow a spoonful!
Sally : I'm not hungry.
[shrugs and in doing so pretends to accidentally knock over the spoon he holds up]
Sally : Oops!
Dr. Finkelstein : [as she shoves the spoon aside on the floor and, still bent over, removes a slotted spoon from her sock] You want me to starve! An old man like me who hardly has strength as it is! Me! To whom you owe your very *life*!
Sally : Oh, don't be silly!
[Dips the sifting spoon in the soup and pretends to taste it]
Sally : Mmmm! See? Scrumptious.
-
Sally : I had the most terrible vision.
Jack Skellington : That's splendid!
Sally : No - it was about your Christmas. There was smoke... and fire!
Jack Skellington : That's not *my* Christmas! *My* Christmas is filled with laughter, and joy... and this: my Sandy Claws outfit. I want you to make it.
Sally : Jack, please listen to me. It's going to be a disaster!
Jack Skellington : How could it be? Just follow the pattern!
[holds up design of outfit]
Jack Skellington : This part's red, the trim is white...
Sally : It's a mistake, Jack!
Jack Skellington : Now don't be modest. Who else is clever enough to make my Sandy Claws outfit?
Mayor : Next!
Jack Skellington : I have every confidence in you.
Sally : But it seems wrong to me. Very wrong.

Sally : [examining Jack in his newly-finished Santa suit] You don't look like yourself, Jack. Not at all.
Jack Skellington : Isn't that wonderful? It couldn't be more wonderful!
Sally : [holds up the clipboard sketch of him] But you're the Pumpkin King!
Jack Skellington : Not anymore!
[breaks it over his knee]
Jack Skellington : I feel so much better now!
Sally : [pulling a loose thread from his cuff] Jack, I know you think something's missing, but...
[accidentally catches his finger]
Jack Skellington : [lightly] Ow.
Sally : Sorry.
Jack Skellington : You're right. Something is missing. But what? I've got the beard, the coat, the boots, the belt.
Lock , Shock , Barrel : [come in] Jack, Jack! This time we bagged him!
Lock : This time we really did.
Barrel : He sure is big, Jack!
Shock : And heavy!
Santa : [bursting out the bag] Let me out!
[the Halloween citizens gasp in awe]
Jack Skellington : Sandy Claws... in person. What a pleasure to meet you.
[prepares to shake but then looks down when their HANDS touch]
Jack Skellington : Wh - ! Why, you have hands! You don't have claws at all!
Santa : [dazed] Where am I?
Jack Skellington : Surprised, aren't you. I knew you would be. You don't need to have another worry about Christmas this year. Consider this a vacation, Sandy. A reward. It's your turn to take it easy.
Santa : B-But there must be some mistake!
Jack Skellington : See that he's comfortable... Just a second, fellas! Of course! That's what I'm missing!
[takes Santa's hat]
Santa : B-But...
Jack Skellington : Thanks.
Santa : Hang on - you just can't -
[has the bag thrown over him again]
Santa : Hold on! Where are we going now?
[the henchmen leave with him]
Santa : Ho, ho, ho! No...
[monotone]
Santa : Ho, ho, ho. Ho...
Sally : This is worse than I thought. Much worse. I know!
[leaves to get fog juice]
-
Sally : [sings] I sense there's something in the wind / That feels like tragedy's at hand. / And though I'd like to stand by him, / Can't shake this feeling that we have. / The worst is just around the bend. / And does he notice / My feelings for him? / And will he see / How much he means to me? / I think it's not to be.
-
Jack Skellington : Sally, I need your help more than anyone's.
Sally : You certainly do, Jack: I had the most terrible vision.
Jack Skellington : That's splendid!
Sally : No, it was about your Christmas, there was smoke and fire!
Jack Skellington : [chuckles] That's not my Christmas, my Christmas is filled with laughter and joy, and this!
Jack Skellington : [Jack shows Sally a sketching of himself in a replica of Santa's suit] My Sandy Claws outfit; I want you to make it!
Sally : Jack, please listen to me, it's going to be a disaster!
Jack Skellington : How could it be? Just follow the pattern. This part's red, the trim is white.
Sally : It's a mistake, Jack.
Jack Skellington : Now don't be modest. Who else is clever enough to make my Sandy Claws outfit?

Dr. Finkelstein : That's twice this month you've slipped deadly nightshade into my tea and run off.
Sally : Three times!
-
Sally : Good-bye Jack... My dearest Jack... Oh, how I hope my premonition is wrong.
Sally : [the musicians start playing, Sally starts singing] I sense there's something in the wind / That feels like tragedy's at hand / And though I'd like to stand by him / Can't shake this feeling that I have / The worst is just around the bend / And does he notice / My feelings for him? / And will he see / How much he means to me? / I think it's not to be. / What will become of my dear friend? / Where will his actions lead us then? /
Sally : [Sally walks through the iron gate, song continues] Although I'd like to join the crowd / In their enthusiastic cloud / Try as I may, it doesn't last.
Sally : [pets a black cat, song continues] And will we ever / End up together? / No, I think not / It's never to become / For I am not the one.
[song ends]

Lock : [singing] I say that we take a cannon, aim it at his door, and then, knock three times, and when he answers, Sandy Claws will be no more!
Shock : [singing] You're so stupid! Think now! If we blow him up to smithereens, we may lose some pieces!
Lock , Shock : [singing] And then Jack will beat us black and green!
-
Jack Skellington : Sally! I need your help most of all.
Sally : You certainly do, Jack. I've had the most horrible vision!
Jack Skellington : That's splendid!

[Oogie Boogie is about to send Sally and Santa Claus down the fiery pit]
Sally : You wait till Jack hears about this! By the time he's through with you, you'll be lucky if you...
Mayor : [drives by on megaphone, sadly] The king of Halloween has been blown to smithereens! Skeleton Jack is now a pile of dust!
[Sally gasps in shock]
Oogie Boogie Man : What's that you were saying about luck, rag doll?
