    • Quotes

      Nurse George: [knocks on Carl's door; he opens it] Good morning, Mr. Fredricksen. You ready to go?

      Carl Fredricksen: I'll meet you at the van in just a minute. I uh, wanna say one last goodbye to the old place.

      Nurse George: Sure. Take all the time you need, sir.

      [Carl slams his door]

      Nurse A.J.: Typical! He's probably going to the bathroom for the 80th time.

      [they turn to walk towards the van]

      Nurse George: [sees the helium canisters lying around] Yech! You think he'd take better care of his house!

      [they notice the shadows of many baloons rising behind them and turn around. Carl's house lifts off the ground and passes over their heads]

      Nurse George, Nurse A.J.: Aaaah!

      [as the house passes over them, Russell can be seen bracing himself underneath the house's floorboards]

      Russell: Aaah!

      Carl Fredricksen: Ha, ha ha ha ha ha! So long, boys!

      [George and A.J. are left dumbstruck]

    You Too Can Run Away

    If you remember the Pixar movie UP, you may recall that a couple of men from the retirement home were coming to take him there when he thwarted everyone (except the audience), by attaching many balloons to his house. In this ultra-short cartoon, they don't know what to make of it, but when local news reports on it, all the other elderly people in town quickly figure it out. Much to the bafflement of those two men.

    This partially animated short seems to have first appeared on television. It has shown up on various home video sets since then -- how do you think I saw it? Despite its deliberately poor production values, it is very well written.
