- Ataru's Mother: [Sobbing] Oh why did this happen?
- Ataru's Father: Don't cry dear.
- Ataru's Mother: But our only son, on whose behalf we have endured so much hardship, has gone and become a raccoon-man! I can't show my face to the neighbors!
- [Wails loudly]
- Ataru: I'm not a raccoon! I'm a wolf-man!
- Ataru's Father: Really? You look more like a dog-man to me.
- Ataru: I'm telling you, I'm a wolf-man!
- Ataru's Mother: A raccoon-man. No matter how you look at it, you're a raccoon-man.
- Ataru's Father: He's a dog.
- Ataru's Mother: He's a raccoon!
