Casper on Screen: I told you I was a good dancer. Can I keep you?
Kat: Casper?
[Casper sitting on his old sled, takes his baseball cap off]
Casper: I begged and begged my dad to give me this sled, but he acted like I couldn't even have it, because I didn't know how to ride it. But then one morning, I came down for breakfast and there it was, just for me, for no reason at all. I took it out, went sledding all day. And my dad said "That's enough." But I
couldn't stop, I was having so much fun. It got late, got dark, got cold... and I got sick, and my dad got sad.
Kat: What's it like to die?
Casper: Like... being born, only backwards. I remember, I didn't go where I was supposed to go. I just stayed behind, so my dad wouldn't be lonely.
Amelia Harvey: That was a very noble thing you did tonight, Casper. I know Kat will never forget it. She needs her father. And I know yours won't forget it either. You fulfilled his greatest dream, Casper, and I know he is very, very proud of you. And for what you've done, I'm giving you your dream in return. But it's just for tonight. Sort of a Cinderella deal.
Casper: So I have until midnight?
Amelia Harvey: Ten.
Casper: Hey, Cinderella got until midnight.
Amelia Harvey: Cinderella wasn't twelve years old.
Kat: Sometimes I worry that I'm starting to forget.
Casper: Forget what?
Kat: My mom. Just certain things. The sound of her making breakfast downstairs. The way she'd put on her lipstick, so carefully. I do remember, she always used Ivory soap, and when she'd hug me, I'd breathe her in, so deep. And I remember before I'd go to sleep
she'd whisper in my ear, "stardust in the eyes, rosy cheeks, and a happy girl in the morning." Casper?
Casper: Hmm?
Kat: If my mom's a ghost, did she forget about me?
Casper: No. She'd never forget you. Kat?
Kat: [about to sleep] Mm-hmm?
Casper: If I were alive, would you go to
the Halloween dance with me?
Kat: Mm-hmm.
Casper: Kat?
Kat: Mm-hmm.
Casper: [whispers] Can I keep you?
Kat: Mm-hmm.
[Casper kisses Kat on the cheek]
Kat: Casper, close the window. It's cold.
[Casper curls up in bed by Kat's side]
Stinkie, Stretch, Fatso: All for one, and one for all!
Stretch: Catch your pants before they fall!
[the Ghosts cut off Dr Harvey's belt, making his pants fall and revealing his underwear]
Fatso: On the runway now we have Dr. James Harvey wearing smashing underwear.
Stretch: Marky Mark, he's not!
Casper: [Arnold Schwarzenegger's voice] Come with me if you want to live.
Carrigan Crittenden: DIBS! Get this thing cooking, you flaccid little worm you!
Dibs: Ah, Carrigan! How kind of you to drop in!
[Carrigan laughs]
Dibs: You know, if there's one thing I've learned from you, it's "always kick 'em when they're down." And baby, you're six feet under. Oh, what a shame!
[grabs vial and
prepares to break it]
Dibs: Sorry, sweetheart, we're through!
Carrigan Crittenden: I am not gonna forget this, you ungrateful, lousy little worm you!
Dibs: [chuckles sarcastically] You can haunt me all you want, but it's gonna be in a great big expensive house, with lovely purple wallpaper, and great big green carpets, and a
little dog, called Carrigan... a b----, just like you! I've got the power! I've got the treasure!
Carrigan Crittenden: And you have a flight to catch!
Dibs: Huh?
[Carrigan flings Dibs out the window]
Carrigan Crittenden: [turns to Casper and Kat, calmly] Any other takers?
Casper: No, but aren't
you forgetting something?
Carrigan Crittenden: What?
Casper: Your unfinished business.
Carrigan Crittenden: My what?
Kat: You know, unfinished business. All ghosts have unfinished business. That's why they don't cross over.
Carrigan Crittenden: Unfinished business? I have no
unfinished business. I have my treasure, my mansion. I have EVERYTHING. I'm... just... perfect!
[light bursts out of her body]
Carrigan Crittenden: [gasps] Wait! Wait! I lied! I have unfinished business - lots of unfinished business! I-I'm not ready to cross over yet! Wait! You tricked me, you rotten little rats!
[bursts apart into light]
