Helen: Don't even think you avoided talking about your trip to the principal's office, young man. Your father and I are still going to discuss it.
Dash: I'm not the only kid who's been sent to the office, you know.
Helen: Other kids don't have superpowers. Now, it's perfectly normal —
Violet: Normal? What do you know about "normal"? What does anyone in this family know about "normal"?!
Helen: Now, look, honey!

Dash: Lucky. [Helen gives him an angry look] I mean, about being normal.

Violet: Yeah, but why am I in charge, again?
Helen: Nothing. Just a little trouble with Daddy.
Violet: You mean Dad's in trouble, or Dad is the trouble?
Helen: I mean he's either in trouble, or he's going to be.
Violet: Yeah, but why am I in charge, again?
Helen: Nothing. Just a little trouble with Daddy.

Buddy: [offscreen] And IncrediBoy!
[he breaks through the window.]
Voyage: IncrediBoy?
Buddy: [flies up to Bob using rocket boots] Hey! Hey! Aren't you curious on how I get around so fast? [shows Bob his rocket boots] See? I have these rocket boots. And they--
Bob: Go home, Buddy.
Buddy: What?
Bob: Now.
Voyage: Petit naïf libe...! [Little oaf...!]
[Buddy looks at Voyage]
Buddy: Can we talk? [pulls Bob off to the side] You always, say, "Be true to yourself.", but you never say which part of yourself to be true to! Well I've finally figured out who I am! [walks up to Mr. Incredible] I am your ward: IncrediBoy!
Bob: And now, you have officially gone too far, Buddy. [grabs Voyage before he can escape]
Buddy: This is because I don't have powers, isn't it? Well, not every superhero has powers, y'know! You can be super without them! I invented these. [points to his rocket boots] I can fly! Can you fly?
Bob: Fly home, Buddy. I work alone.
Voyage: Et ton costume est complètement ridicule! [And your outfit is totally ridiculous!]
Buddy: Could you just gimme one chance? Look, I'll show you! I'll go get the police!

[Edna shows Helen the other suits she has created for the Parrs]
Edna: I started with the baby.
Helen: Started?
Edna: Shh! Darling! Shh! I cut it a little roomy for the free movement. The fabric is comfortable for sensitive skin [flamethrowers throw fire at the suit without leaving burn marks], and it can also withstand a temperature of over 1,000 degrees! Completely bulletproof. [machine guns train on the suit and empty rounds into it without causing any damage] And machine-washable, darling. That's a new feature.
Helen: What on earth do you think the baby will be doing?!
Edna: Well, I'm sure I don't know, darling. Luck favors the prepared. I didn't know the baby's powers, so I covered the basics.
Helen: Jack-Jack doesn't have any powers.
Edna: No? He'll look fabulous anyway. [moves on to Dash's suit] Your boy's suit I designed to withstand enormous friction without heating up or wearing out. A useful feature. [moves on to Violet's] Your daughter's suit was tricky, but I finally created a sturdy material that will disappear completely as she does. [moves on to Helen's new suit] Your suit can stretch as far as you can, without injuring yourself [the suit gets stretched], and still retain its shape. Virtually indestructible. [two missiles fire at the suit, but the suit sustains no damage] Yet it breathes like Egyptian cotton. As an extra feature, each suit contains a homing device, giving you the precise global location of the wearer at the touch of a button. [hands Helen one showing the tracking location of one of the suits] Well, darling? What do you think?
Helen: What do I think?! Bob is retired! I'm retired, our family is underground! You helped my husband resume secret hero-work behind my back?!
Edna: Well, I assumed you knew, darling! Why would he keep secrets from you?
Helen: He wouldn't. Didn't-- D-Doesn't.
Edna: [sighs] Men at Robert's age are often unstable. Prone to weakness.
Edna: I started with the baby.
