[Diane finds Wayne asleep after working all night to repair the shrink ray.]

Quote #8
BIG RUSS: You're not trying it on my kids until you try it on something living. [...] Do it on me.
Although Big Russ is the jerkiest of jerks for the bulk of Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, he proves his love for his family by volunteering to be the test subject for the newly repaired shrink ray. It might not be the flashiest job, but it's a crucial part of any scientific innovation.
