  Peter McCallister : Am I under arrest or something like that?

  Harry : No, no, no, no, no. It's Christmastime. There's always a lot of burglaries around the holidays. So we're just checking the neighbourhood to see if everyone's taking the proper precautions. That's all.

  Peter McCallister : Oh, well we have automatic timers for our lights. Locks for our doors. That's about as good as you can get these days. Did you get some egg nog or something like that?

  Buzz McCallister : [comes down the stairs]  Come on, Dad. Let's eat.

  Harry : Egg... egg nog?

  Kevin McCallister : [hugging her]  Where's everybody else?

  Kate McCallister : Oh, baby, they couldn't come. They wanted to so much, but...

  [to their surprise, the front door opens and the other kids come in, arguing] 

  Peter McCallister : Come on, you guys, it's Christmas.

• Peter McCallister : [all the flights back to Chicago are booked for the holiday]  I say we go over to Rob's, and that way we can call the police again and they can get back to us.

• Kate McCallister : How did you guys get home?

  Peter McCallister : Oh, we took the morning flight. Remember? The one you didn't want to wait for.

• Peter McCallister : The only flying that I ever did as a kid was in the family station wagon. It wasn't to France. We used to have to go over to Aunt Laura and Uncle Arthur's house.
