Heidi:
No! No! You musn't take him away! He's telling the truth! He is my grandfather! My really and truly grandfather! Please! Please let him go!
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Come on! Don't be hysterical!
Heidi: Grandfather!
Police Captain: We'll want you for the trial. Take your child home.
Heidi: I am not her child! She's a bad lady! She tried to sell me to gypsies! Please. Please let the Grandfather take me home. He didn't mean to do anything bad. I'll work hard and pay back for everything he broke. So will Swanli and Bearli.
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Pay no attention to her. She'll be all right when I get her to bed.
Heidi: I won't go with her! She broke my snowstorm and sent my Aunt Dete away so she couldn't take me home to the mountains! If you don't believe me, just ask Herr Sesemann. He'll tell you the truth.
Police Captain: Herr Sesemann? What has Herr Sesemann to do with this?
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Nothing. Nothing at all.
Heidi: He has too. Aunt Dete brought be there to play with Klara, and I taught her how to walk.
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Oh, this is ridiculous. Come along.
Police Lieutenant: Now just a minute.
Police Captain: Well now, lieutenant?
Police Lieutenant: Perhaps we'd better send for Herr Sesemann.
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Oh! Absurd! We - Well, we visited the Sesemann house tonight. Christmas, you know. My sister's governess there. It would be highly improper to disturb Herr Sesemann at this hour.
Police Lieutenant: I think you'd better wait until we hear what Herr Sesemann has got to say.
Heidi: Grandfather! Grandfather!
Heidi: The Grandfather will be worried. He didn't know I was going away, so I must go back tomorrow.
Klara Sesemann: Didn't Dete tell you?
Heidi: Tell me what?
Klara Sesemann: That you're to live here with me.
Heidi: No, she didn't tell me.
Klara Sesemann: You see, my mama's dead, and my papa's business keeps him in Paris most of the time, and I haven't anyone to play with.
Heidi: But I can't live here! I'm going back to the Grandfather right away!
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Indeed you are.
Klara Sesemann: No! I like her!
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Andrews will take you home in the morning.
Klara Sesemann: No! I want her to stay!
Fräulein Rottenmeier: I know what is best for you, Klara.
Klara Sesemann: My papa sent for her! You must wait until he comes home!
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Klara, you'll make yourself ill.
Klara Sesemann: I will! I know I will, if you don't let me keep Heidi!
Heidi: But Klara, I can't stay here!
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Be quiet, both of you.
Heidi: Aunt Dete! What - what do you want here?
Dete: Where's your grandfather?
Heidi: He's up on the mountain, cutting some logs.
Dete: Now you get on your coat and mittens. We're going away.
Heidi: I don't want to go away!
Dete: What?
Heidi: I want to stay here. I love the Grandfather, and he loves me. It's my birthday and we're going to have a party. Look.
[showing Dete a pair of shoes with a dark goat and a light goat sewn on them]
Heidi: He made me these for a present. There's Swanli and Bearli. And we're going down to the village to get sausage and butter because the Grandmother and Peter are coming.
Dete: Well, he won't mind you going on a little trip with me.
Heidi: Where?
Dete: Just to Frankfurt. You can come back whenever you like.
Heidi: I don't want to go to Frankfurt.
Dete: You will do as I say! Where are your clothes?
Heidi: I've got to ask the Grandfather first.
Dete: Where are they?
Heidi: [pointing to the closet] In there.
Dete: Now, there's nothing to worry about. We'll have a sleigh ride to Mayenfeld, and a nice trip on a train. And I'll buy you a present for your birthday.
Heidi: And can I come right back, in time for my party?
Dete: Now, didn't I tell you you could?
Heidi: Can I bring some soft rolls for the Grandmother? You see, she hasn't many teeth and can't eat her black bread.
Dete: Oh, yes. Come! Hurry up! Hurry up!
Heidi: First, I must go up the mountain and tell the Grandfather where I'm going.
Dete: There isn't time. We might miss our train! I'll send word back to him!
Heidi: But I'd rather tell him myself. Do you think if I put my birthda

Facts about
A scene in which Heidi teaches Peter to read was cut from the final film.
The scene in which Heidi is suddenly squirted in the face while milking a goat was planned without Shirley Temple's knowledge. A tube of milk was attached to the goat udder where Temple couldn't see it, and when she was squirted, her surprised reaction was genuine.
The movie was filmed during the summer, and Jean Hersholt's heavy costume once caused him to collapse from heat exhaustion.
