The basic plot of the movie is that a kid, Danny, has a special ticket that allows him to go into the movie world of his favorite action hero/action movie (Arnold's character: Jack Slater). Danny tries to convince Jack that they are in a movie, by repeating catch phrases of the character as he says them.

Finally, after Jack is sucked into the real world, he makes the statement "well listen to this one: Rubber baby buggy bumpers, bet you didn't know I was going to say that" to which Danny throws up his arms and rolls his eyes.
