Pod Clock
- [repeated line]
- Pod Clock: A Borrower is quiet, conscientious, and inconspicuous. We don't steal; we borrow.
- Pod Clock: [speaking directly to a tied-up Potter] I'm Pod Clock! And I'm here to tell you a thing or two. We're not vermin. We're not freaks. And we're not pests. We're Borrowers!
- [Borrowers cheering]
- Pod Clock: Borrowers are quiet... cautious... inconspicuous... alert... brave! And very good at climbing! So consider yourself seen, bean. We may be small, but Heaven help anyone who thinks he can squish us!
- Homily Clock: [hears a vacuum cleaner] What in the world...?
- Pod Clock: It's not Thursday, is it?
- Homily Clock: Oh, my goodness. They must've changed the schedule. They can't change the schedule! Can they?
- Pod Clock: [as the vacuum cleaner trembles their home] EMERGENCY STATIONS, EVERYONE!
- [the vacuum sucks up Peagreen by the floorboards until the vacuum moves away releasing Peagreen and causing a huge mess in the house]
- Homily Clock: What! Honestly, Pod!
- Pod Clock: What? Oh, I suppose this is all my fault, too!
- Pod Clock: Did I ever tell you about the time my friend Minty got stuck in the honeypot?
- Homily Clock: [smiles] Yes, you did.
