Miley: Behold the ghosts of holiday's past! (Miley takes out some tacky dresses) Lilly: I think I'm gonna be sick. I need a fashion magazine! (Grabs the closest magazine) Hip, cute, trendy. Okay, all better!
Miley: Oliver your a life saver! Oliver: It's ok. My aunt gave me the puppy version for christmas; it barks "Jingle Bells".
Miley: (About her sweater) I'll wear it for an hour and make my dad happy and then it will mysteriously fall into the barbeque. Lilly: But what if it doesn't burn? Miley: Then I'll cut it up and eat it! Robbie: (Outside on the balcony) Miley, come out here, I've got something for you. Miley: (To Lilly) If it's the matching pants, you're eating it with me.
(Miley and Oliver are making music out of cat meows and dog barks from their sweater; everybody is watching) Lilly: How long do you think it's gonna last? Jackson: It has watch batteries. Robbie: It could last forever.
(About Robbie) Miley: Seriously, I love him, but the man should not be allowed into the teen department with a credit card!
Robbie: I saw a bunch of outfits you'd've loved better, but I just couldn't bring myself to buy 'em. Miley: Why not? You see what I wear to school; you see what I wear on stage as Hannah Montana. Robbie: Well, maybe that's just it. My little girl's just growin' up so fast. There's a part o' me just strugglin' to hold on to the little girl you used to be. Miley: Daddy, I'll always be your little girl. I'll just be your little girl that...that dresses better.
Miley: Every time he gives me a present, he says "I got this special for you bud" and he gives me that face (Miley makes the face)
Robbie: Did you find something? Lilly: Yeah. (holds something up and Miley/Hannah says no) And I hate it. Just thought I'd let you know.
Oliver: Miley! Miley: This stalls taken. Oliver: It's ok I got you covered. Miley: How? Oliver: Just trust me. (He hands her a giant balloon to use as cover) Miley: Oliver, your a life saver!
Amber & Ashley: Oohhh...ssss Amber: I'm getting tired of that. Ashley: Me too. Amber & Ashley: Let's stop. Oohhh...ssss
Lil' Shopper: Stop staring at me you freak! (walks away) Hannah: And she thought that I was real. (people stop and stare then run away)
Lilly: It just sorta jumped out at me...and hit me in the eye.
Roxy: (to Amber & Ashley) Yeah, that's what happens when you mess with crouching tiger, hidden Roxy!
Oliver: (doing the limbo) Ya, man. That's right. Nobody can beat this. Roxy: Guess again, stringbean. Roxy is undefeated. How low can I go? (drops limbo stick on the floor; steps over it) Yes! Now somebody point me to the prize table. Oliver: But you cheated. Roxy: I don't think so! Oliver: Neither do I.
Jackson: (trying to bake a cake) Coop, I think there's something wrong here. Cooper: You're supposed to break the eggs, fool! Jackson: That makes so much sense! (breaks eggs) Yes! (Cooper shakes his head) Cooper: Okay, I can not take this anymore! I'm going to tell you something that no one outside my family knows. Jackson: What that you still drink Shirley Temples? Cooper: They are fruity and refreshing! Anyways, I bake. Jackson: What? Cooper: I love to bake! Pies, strudels, and my snickerdoodles are off the chain! Jackson: But you said your mom made those! Cooper: Php! My mom can't make ice! Now, I'm going to need fresh ingredients, a new bowl, and give me that! (grabs the whisk) You aren't fit to hold the whisk!
Amber: Did you get her? Ashley: No, you? Amber: No, I took a picture of myself by mistake. Ooh, and I look fantastic!
Lilly: Come on, Miley. So, it's a dorky sweater. Miley: Are you kidding? I look like a kitty-ka-bob!
Oliver: Hey, Roxy, have you seen... (Roxy hits Oliver, causing him to fall) Oliver: ... Miley! Roxy: Sorry, never sneak up behind Roxy. 'Cause Roxy sees everything. Hey, you all right there, sugar. Shake it off.
Robbie: Okay, everybody. It's limbo time. Yeah, how low can you go? How low can you go? How low can you... (his back cracks) Oh, my achy breaky back.
(pelican laughs) Jackson: You're laughing at me, aren't you? You're laughing your little pelican laugh. I hate you! (runs off) (pelican continues laughing)
Oliver: You don't know how hard it was to keep the secret from both of you. Miley: You knew?! Oliver: Yeah. You should have seen the look on your face. (laughs) Miley: How do you like this look? (makes an angry face and growls) Oliver: Wow, that's the same look my mom had when she turned 40.
Miley: (about Jackson's gift) Sheepskin sheet covers? You got me a present for your car? Jackson: Hey, when I drive you to the mall I want you to be comfortable. For Christmas, I'm getting you chrome spinners. Miley: Fine. And you're getting a black leather skirt with pumps. Mess with me!
Roxy: Hold up there. Has this bag been out of your sight or control since the time you wrapped it? Robbie: Roxy, you're here for Miley's birthday. You're a guest. You're off the clock. Roxy: Mmm-mmm! Danger never takes a vacation!
(after the pelicans pushed the birthday cake on the floor) Jackson: Why?! Cooper: Maybe they thought it was a crab cake. (laughs) You get it? Crab cake? (Jackson laughs) Jackson: (stops laughing) Go home!
Cooper: (to Jackson) Okay, first, you drop a cake. Then, you lock yourself outside of the house with a new cake. I'm starting to think you got some cake issues.
Milda: (sees Miley hiding in a rack of clothes) Hi. Miley: Hi. Just looking. (hides) Milda: (opens up clothes rack) Me again. Just wanted to let you know about our new promotion. Yeah, it's called buy something or get out! Miley: Hey, I had my eye on something. Milda: Blah, blah, blah, and don't come back. (throws her out)
Miley: There he is. Now, just remember, my future happiness depends on you. No pressure. Lilly: You know, usually when someone says "No pressure," it adds pressure! Miley: Just go!
Jackson: (carrying Miley's birthday cake; to Cooper) Oh, uh, could you grab the box? I can't wait to see the look on my dad's face when he gets a load of this cake. (turns around and accidentally hits Robbie in the face with the cake) Robbie: Son, I don't think you want to see the look on my face. (to Cooper) What are you grinning about?!
Miley: Mom always knew the right stuff to buy me. She had great taste. But Dad... oh, man. He has the taste of a month old pickle. Lilly: Look, no dad knows how to shop for a girl. You know what my dad got me for my last birthday? A savings bond. You can touch it, you can feel it, but you can't spend it. Pointless!
Hannah: (about Robbie) As a dad, he knows everything about everything. But as a shopper, well, let's just say the alarm should go off when he comes in to the store.
Hannah: This is incredible. All these fans and the store even made a mannequin of me. Lola: That's not a mannequin. That's a Hannah-quin, Miss Montana-quin. Hannah: Oh, no. Lola: What? That was cute-iquin. Hannah: No. I think my dad is shopping for my birthday present. Lola: Oh, no. Someone's going to buy you something really expensive and cool. What ever will you do?!
Milda: Oh, my. That looks fabulous on you. Lola: Actually, I'm just looking. Milda: Well, then look someplace else, kid. I've got a car payment to make. Lola: Fine. But I hope when I'm as old as you I'm not as bitter. Milda: Oh, you will be.
Roxy: (to little girl) Ah, not so fast, short stuff. You know the drill. Arms out. (waves metal detector; metal detector beeps when put over the little girl's mouth) I knew it. What are you hiding in there? Little Girl: Braces? Roxy: Yeah, likely story. Open!
Girl #1: This is so cool! I've been waiting months for these scarves to come out. I'm never taking it off. Hannah: Great. Just be sure to shower in cold water only and lie yourself flat to dry.
Miley: This is what I think of your idea. (flushes the toilet)
Miley: Behold the ghosts of holiday's past. (Miley takes out some tacky dresses)
(After Amber and Ashley just ruined the cake) Cooper: My cake! I mean, my cake that I carried and didn't make. Because... guys don't do that.
This episode premiered in the Czech Republic on September 24th, 2011.
This episode was nominated in the category of "Happiest Birthday Blow-Out" for the Disney Channel's New Year Sing-Along Bowl-Athon.
We see Miley receiving the following presents: From Lilly, a cute purse. From Roxy, a handheld metal detector. From Jackson, sheepskin seat covers. (For his car!) From Robbie, the tacky meowing kitty sweater.
It seems that whenever Robbie and Miley have a heartwarming moment, Robbie notices something out of place from an earlier scene. This marks the second time this has happened: The first time was in "She's a Supersneak", when Robbie notices the rope ladder Miley used to sneak out of the house; in this episode, the pelican has frosting on his beak from knocking Miley's birthday cake over.
It is apparent that Roxy (Hannah's bodyguard) knows Miley's secret because she came to Miley's family birthday party and Miley didn't have a wig on.
It is never mentioned the actual day of Miley's birthday.
On iTunes, after the episode has ended, Disney channel commercials for That's so Raven, The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, and American Dragon: Jake Long are inserted.
Even though her name is never stated in the episode, the woman who works at the store is named Milda.
A Disney poll this episode said "61% of voters said their b.f.f. (best friend forever) would compare them to most to Miley!
Lilly masquerades as Lola Luftnangle (with the lavender wig) for the third time.
This is the first episode that's not a week from a new episode before it.
Cooper: I bake. This is a reference to High School Musical. Zeke has a secret that he likes to bake. Cooper likes to bake too and only tells Jackson.
A Shirley Temple is a drink that was made especially for 1930s child star Shirley Temple. The story goes that at Chasin's restaurant Shirley wanted a cocktail like all of the grown-ups at the table had. She asked the bartender if he had any cocktails without alcohol. The bartender did not have drinks like that, but he decided to try something. He mixed ginger ale, grenadine syrup, added a orange slice, put a cherry on top. Shirley loved the drink, so he said that he would name it after her.
"That's what happens when you mess with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Roxy." This alludes to the Kung Fu movie, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Robbie: Oh, my achey breaky back! This is a play on words of Billy Ray's hit song, Achey Breaky Heart.
Mission Impossible was a popular TV series in the 1960's & was recently turned in to a movie franchise starring Tom Cruise.
The title, It's a Mannequin's World, is most likely an allusion to an old phrase and song titled, It's a Man's World.
