Quotes with snapshot pictures SKUA BOSS: Hey,
what you doing there, flipper bird? MUMBLE: Nothing. What are you doing? SKUA BOSS: Nothing.
Just dropped in for a little lunch. MUMBLE: There's food? Here? SKUA #1: Leg or wing? MUMBLE: Oh, no, no, wait. Not me, I'm a penguin. SKUA BOSS: Exactly. The flipper birds, that's you, eat the fish. The flying birds, that's me, eat the flipper bird and the fish. And lately, there ain't a lot of fish. So... SKUA #2: This time I'm getting the juicy bits. SKUA #3: Me first! SKUA #1: Hey, you want a piece of me? SKUA BOSS: Hey, hey, hey! I'm trying to think about lunch. MUMBLE: Wait! Watch this! SKUA BOSS: Yeah, that's weird, all right. Listen. For once, we're gonna do this civilized. Now, get in line... MUMBLE: Hey!
What's that on your leg? SKUA BOSS: What? This little thing? SKUA #1: Oh, no. Don't start him on that. SKUA BOSS: Shut up! The little flipper bird asked me a perceptive question.
A question like that deserves an answer. SKUA #2: Here we go. SKUA BOSS: I got two words for you: "Alien abduction." SKUA #1: Oh, you had to ask. SKUA #2: Have mercy. SKUA BOSS: Quiet! SKUA BOSS: Now, little buddy, there is something out there. Creatures. Not like us. Bigger, fiercer, and smarter too. Ask me how I know. MUMBLE: How? SKUA BOSS: Because I've been captured by them, that's how. MUMBLE: Unbelievable. SKUA BOSS: What do you mean "unbelievable?" It's true. I'm sitting on a rock, minding my own business when suddenly, they're onto me. These beings, like big ugly penguins. Fat, flabby faces with front-ways eyes no feathers, no beaks, and these... These appendages. They probe me. They tie me up. They strap me down. They take this pointy thing and they stick it into me. And then, blackout. MUMBLE: Gosh. SKUA BOSS: I woke up and there's this... This thing on me. Every flying bird is dissing me, "Hey, what's happening, yellow leg?" It was humiliating. MUMBLE: And then what? SKUA BOSS: It was humiliating. What more do you want? MUMBLE: They could have eated you. SKUA BOSS: Yeah. Yeah. I guess my pitiful cries for mercy appealed to their better nature. MUMBLE: Can I appeal to your better nature? SKUA BOSS: Nice try, kid, but no. MUMBLE: No. No. No! SKUA BOSS: What you doing down there, flipper bird? SKUA #1: Get up here. SKUA BOSS: Get back up here this minute. SKUA #1: Oh, great. You let him get away. Didn't you? SKUA #2: All your screwy alien talk. SKUA BOSS: Hey, I'm an abductee. SKUA #1: Abduct this. SKUA BOSS: Don't make me call Uncle Angie. SKUA #1: Oh, fine. SKUA BOSS: Where youse going? I'm an abductee! SKUA #1: I don't care what you are, I'm hungry! SKUA #2: Would you like to hear our specials? SKUA BOSS: How about fish? SKUA #1: There's no fish. SKUA BOSS: How about penguin? SKUA #2: There's no penguin. What are we gonna eat?! CLASS [singing]: There's a world where I can go / And tell my secrets to / In my room... LOVELACE [narrating]: Paying no mind to his dancing heart the kid saw out his school days at the back of the class lost in his imaginings. CLASS [singing]: Now it's dark and I'm... LOVELACE [narrating]: What fabulous worlds lay out there, far beyond the ice? CLASS [singing]: I won't be afraid LOVELACE [narrating]:
Was there any place where one small penguin without a Heartsong could ever truly belong? CLASS [singing]: In my room NOAH THE ELDER: And so, a thousand generations ago our forefathers forsook our wings for flippers. You graduates going to sea for the first time are to reap the benefits of their wise choice. These are lean and uncertain times. But by the power of the ancient penguin wisdoms we, my brethren, will endure. NORMA JEAN: Blah, blah, blah. MEMPHIS: Norma Jean. NORMA JEAN: Who is he to say my boy can't graduate? He's not hurting anyone. NOAH THE ELDER: True to our ways and
you will always be worthy of this our brave penguin nation. Excelsior! ALL PENGUINS: Ocean, here I come! NORMA JEAN: You know what? We're gonna have a little graduation ceremony of our own. MUMBLE: You mean it, Ma? NORMA JEAN: You betcha. MUMBLE: Excelsior! NORMA JEAN: Excelsior! MEMPHIS: Keep it down. MUMBLE: Pa. NORMA JEAN: Memphis. NORMA JEAN: Go get them, tiger. MUMBLE: Thanks, Ma. NORMA JEAN: Make every moment count! MUMBLE: Got you, Ma! MEMPHIS: Remember, "Stranger Danger." MUMBLE: Yeah, sure, Pa. MEMPHIS: And watch out for those leopard seals and them killer whales. PENGUIN: Mark this, Noah. That boy was always a bad egg. I'm telling you, no good will come of this. MUMBLE: Guys! Wait up! YOUNG MALE PENGUIN: What do you think? YOUNG FEMALE PENGUIN: You first. YOUNG MALE PENGUIN: No, you first. MUMBLE: No. No, no, no. YOUNG MALE PENGUIN: What was that? YOUNG FEMALE PENGUIN: I think it was the fuzzball. YOUNG MALE PENGUIN: See any blood? MUMBLE: What you waiting for? MUMBLE: Hey, Gloria! Gloria, I adore-ia. I'd like to see more-ia. Gloria. GLORIA: Mumble? MUMBLE: Gloria. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to... SEYMOUR: Fall back, coming through! MUMBLE: Gloria? All my life,
I've wanted to say that you're so... GLORIA: Fish. MUMBLE: Yeah. You're so fish. No. Fish! Fish!
MUMBLE: Oh, that's mine. That's lousy. You didn't get one? Sorry. Gloria. You got one?
GLORIA: Nope. Not this time. MUMBLE: You have it. GLORIA: Thank you, Mumble, but it's yours. MUMBLE: I want you to have it. GLORIA: No. You caught it. You eat it. MUMBLE: I want you to... MUMBLE:
Skua, you get back here!. Come on. GLORIA: Mumble! Let go! Mumble! Let go! You just let him get away! PENGUIN #1: Is he breathing? PENGUIN #2: He's certainly not eating. GLORIA: Mumble? Are you okay? Mumble? MUMBLE: Take the fish. GLORIA: What? MUMBLE: Take the stupid fish. GLORIA: Oh, okay. Thank you, Mumble. MUMBLE: You're welcome.
