Scene I: Africa (Opening)[]
(DreamWorks Animation SKG with 2010 animated logo)
[Camera moves down in Africa and all the animals are gathering the watering hole after the previous film and its midquel of breaking the dam by the wrath of Nana and her New York hunters and the defeat of Makunga as Alex and Zuba reunite the pride once more. And now Alex and the others, excluding Zuba & Florrie who don't appear in this movie due to Bernie Mac's death after 2008, wave goodbye to the Penguins and Chimps who are on the Super Plane of preparing to go to Monte Carlo in Italy for a Honeymoon with Skipper's girlfriend, Lola the Hula Girl Doll. (Even though she does not appear in the movie either)]
Skipper: Okay, wind her up, boys! It's Monte Carlo or bust! Struts.
(The lights become red and green after Kowalski flips on the switches)
Kowalski: Check.
Skipper: Flaps.
(The gas supply rises higher)
Kowalski: Check.
Skipper: Diamonds and gold.
Kowalski: Check!
(Mason counts the diamonds, pearls, gold and emeralds. Phil bites on a piece of gold)
(The plane takes off)
Skipper: We'll be back from our gambling spree in a couple of weeks.
All: Bye!
Skipper: Or whenever the gold runs out.
Marty: Bye-bye!
Melman: Bye.
Alex: All right! We'll be waiting for ya!
(Cuts to the plane)
Skipper: Just kidding! (Laughing) We're never coming back!
Alex: Sorry. What was that?
Skipper: Initiate warp drive.
(The super plane goes into warp drive and Alex is left behind, while the scene changes to the future with illusions of New York City as the color goes black and white)
Alex: Did they just say they were never coming back? Guys? (He looks to Marty, but he's older.) Marty?
(Old Marty is on the treadmill)
Old Marty: Oh, goody, you're here!
Alex: (shocked) Ah!
(Old Marty shoves some hay in Alex's mouth)
Old Marty: Why don't you chew on this? I'm hungry. (makes eating sounds)
Alex: Ahh! Whoa!! (The treadmill under Alex's feet gets longer and Alex falls through a door and lands on Old Melman's fake leg)
Old Melman: Oww! Ah, I'm just messing with ya. I lost all feeling in this thing years ago. (taps his fake leg with his cane, laughs and then starts snoring).
Alex: Melman? Why do you look like that? Ohh!
(Old Gloria comes up and puts her walker down on Alex's hand)
Old Gloria: Ooh, look who's talking.
Alex: Gloria? Why are you guys so... elderly?
Old Gloria: Now, when was the last time you looked in a mirror?
Alex: What?
Old Gloria: Hmm?
(Alex turns behind him, looks into a mirror and sees an old version of himself)
Alex: (screaming in horror) NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Old Alex: (his half body comes out from the mirror and shakes his younger self) Wake up, Wake up!!
(Marty wakes Alex up from his nightmare)
Marty: Ally-Al, Wake up!
Alex: Marty! (gets up and pants in shock) Oh! Marty, it was horrible!
Marty: That same nightmare again, huh?
Alex: We were stuck here in Africa, and we were all super-old and wrinkly and...! Well, I aged well; but the rest of you looked terrible!
Marty: Relax, Alex. 'Cause I got a surprise for you!
Alex: (gasps) Is it the Penguins? (seeks out with binoculars) Have they come to take us home?
Marty: Nope. But it's the next best thing.
Alex: (sighs, draws a diagonal line with chalk on a board for eternal days living in Africa) Another day bites the dust...
Marty: Come on now! (grabs Alex, making him drop the chalk; Marty walks Alex up the hill while covering Alex's eyes)
Marty: Watch it. Watch yourself. Small divots!
Alex: (trips over the divot) Oof!
Marty: Sorry, little incline there. Back, up this hill...
Alex: (falls onto ground) Ow! (hits his head off a branch)
Marty: A low-hanging branch, then just over this bluff, and voilà!
(Marty lets go of Alex, causing him to tumble down the hill.)
Marty: Happy birthday, pal!
(Alex gets up and gets amazed)
Alex: Whoa... (sees a mud model of New York City) Wow! New York City.
(Melman and Gloria are shown next to the model; Melman is lying down with his neck straightened out like a bridge and Gloria is posing like the Statue of Liberty)
Melman and Gloria: Surprise!!
Alex: Gloria, you're the Statue of Liberty!
Gloria: (shaking her belly) Bring me your huddled masses, baby!
Alex: And Melman, you're the Brooklyn Bridge!
Melman: Actually, I'm the Tri-Borough Bridge.
Alex: Wow. You guys made this?
Marty: Yep. From memory. From crazy, obsessive memory!
(Alex runs all over the model, laughing while looking at it)
Alex: Hey! Fifth Avenue, with no traffic! There's Times Square with its modern-day corporate lack of character. Nine Duane Reades on the same street! (sees a model of the Central Park Zoo) And the zoo. Wow, our home. (sees mud models of himself and his friends) Look! There's a little me! And little all of us-es!
(The mud models change to the actual zoo as a flashback. Alex is in his habitat, people are chanting "Alex!")
Alex: ROAR!!!
(Fireworks come out from the sides. Alex looks at his friends. Melman gives a thumbs up with an Alex foam finger. Gloria points at Alex with a foam finger, giving him a wink. And Marty, walking backwards on his treadmill, also is shown with a foam finger. Alex pulls out his paws showing two foam fingers on them. The zoosters are laughing and poking each other with their foam fingers)
(Scene changes back to Africa. Alex is seen crying. His friends feel sorry for him. Alex blows his nose on his paws)
Alex: You guys. You've both made and ruined my day.
Gloria: (sniffles and holds out a birthday cake) Make a wish, sweetheart.
(Alex thinks a wish, then blows out the candle. The lemurs, King Julien, Maurice, and Mort, pop out of the cake.)
King Julien: Ta-Da! Your wish has come true!
Mort: Oh, yay! (Mort's stomach growls) My tummy is speaking to me! (pink foam cake comes out of his mouth, much to everyone's disgust.)
Alex: Oh, gross!
King Julien: Uh... I wouldn't eat that side of the cake if I were you.
(Gloria throws away the cake, sending the lemurs off-screen.)
Lemurs: Whoa!
Gloria: Alex, what was your wish?
Alex: I wish we could go home. I mean, don't get me wrong; I love this. But it's not the real thing.
Marty: Well, that's because it's a mud model, Alex. It's not actually New York. I hope that was clear.
Alex: What are we doing? Here we are relying on the penguins to come back for us. But... we should just go to Monte Carlo and get them!
Melman: How do a lion, a zebra, a giraffe, and a hippo walk into a casino in Monte Carlo?
Marty: I don't know. Ask the rabbi!
Melman: Hey, I'm serious!
Alex: Come on. We can do it! We can do anything! It's us!
Marty: We're us!
Alex: Yeah, that's right! We've gone halfway around the world. Compared with that, Monte Carlo's just a hop, skip, and a swim away!
Melman: Yeah!
Gloria: Hee-hee!
Alex (puts his paw in center) To home.
Marty: (puts his hoof on Alex's paw) Home!
Melman: (puts his hoof on Marty's hoof) Home.
Gloria: (puts her hand on Melman's hoof) Home.
King Julien: (puts his hand on Melman's hoof) Cheeseburger!
Alex: Tell you what? Bet those penguins will be glad to see us.
Marty: Yeah, they're probably bored out of their minds!
(Back at the Hotel in Italy, Mason is making a mess and crashes all the plates while Phil is doing a makeup for a disguise of the King of Versailles as a plan to enter the Casino and win more money to send Alex and his gang back to New York. And in the meantime at the bed, the penguins are having a pillow fight!)
Skipper: You pillow fight like a bunch of little girls!
Rico: (Grabs a pillow and attacks Skipper) Yah!
Skipper: Chimichanga! (Whimpering) These pillows are filled with baby birds!!
Scene II: Infiltrating Monte Carlo[]
(The title card appears as back at the ocean, Alex and his gang are wearing snorkels to find the Casino in Port de Monte Carlo, Italy)
Melman: (muffled speech) There it is. The casino!
Alex: (muffled) What?
Melman: There it is. The casino!
Alex: (muffled speech) Perfect. That's where we'll find the penguins.
Marty: (muffled) What?
Alex: I said perfect. That's where we'll find the penguins.
Marty: (muffled speech)
Gloria: What?
Marty: (Random blabbering)
Alex: Shh! Come on, guys. Operation Penguin Extraction does not include levity. We can't draw attention to ourselves. (whispers) We're invisible! I'm talking really, really quiet.
King Julien: ♪Everybody dance now! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Everybody dance now! Yeah!♪♪
Alex: Okay. Phase One: We break into the casino, grab the penguins, and get them to take us back to New York in the Monkey-Powered Super Plane!
Marty: Check.
Alex: Phase Two: We chew out the penguins for abandoning us in Africa.
Melman: Check.
Alex: Phase Three: We apologize to the penguins for overly harsh chewing outing, but we've gotten our point across. Phase Four: Back to New York City.
Marty: Check.
Gloria: Yes!
Melman: I like it!
Alex: All right, we take these ventilation ducts to the crawlspace above the casino where we find the penguins. l just need to figure out which duct each of us should take.
King Julien: (rapping) ♪Pause! Back with the bass! The jam is live in effect and l don't waste time On the mic with a dope rhyme Jump to the rhythm Jump, jump to the rhythm, jump...♪♪
(And at the roof, Alex falls from his own pipe. Marty is coming out of the pipe and bumps Alex! Then, Melman got stuck in a hose and he pops out to Alex and Marty as Gloria is going to scream while falling from the pipe!)
Alex: Uh oh.
(All screaming)
Alex: Oh, no! Take cover!
(Luckily, Gloria got stuck in the pipe and she's almost going to fall.)
Marty: Whew!
Melman: Hi, honey.
Marty: Okay!
(Gloria strains)
Melman: OK, OK. l got you. l got you, honey.
(Soon Alex releases his claws and Marty licks his hooves to find out a mystery disguise that has the penguins and the chimps.)
Alex: Now, they're not gonna let animals on to the casino floor, so expect some kind of disguise.
Marty: Whoa! Look at that! That is one ugly, mug-ugly lady! That is roach-killing ugly!
Alex: That's not a lady. That's the King of Versailles. And that's not the King of Versailles. That's the chimps! And the chimps are like smoke. And where there's smoke, there's fire. And by fire, I mean the penguins!
Casino Host: King of Versailles wins again!
Skipper: I say we let it ride. Then we'll pick up the hippies and fly back to New York in style.
Kowalski: Can we buy an Airbus A-380?
Skipper: Solid gold, baby!
Kowalski: Sir! A solid gold plane wouldn't be able to fly.
Skipper: Kowalski, we'll be rich! The rules of physics don't apply to us. Let it ride!
Mason: Right-o!
Alex: (using a harpoon on the wood top and uses a clock for the signal time) OK. ln exactly 2 minutes and 17 seconds, the lemurs will cut the power.
King Julien: Now?
Maurice: No.
King Julien: Okay?
Maurice: No.
King Julien: I do?
Maurice: No.
Alex: I drop down, grab the penguins. You crank me up, and we are out of here.
Marty: Oh! Oh! Oh! L-Let me drop down! I'll grab the penguins!
Alex: You don't have fingers, Marty.
King Julien: Now?
Maurice: No.
King Julien: Do it?
Maurice: No!
Alex: These are things a leader has to think of.
Marty: Why should you be the leader? Why not me?
Alex: 'Cause I'm the phase tracker!
Casino Host: The king is letting it ride.
Marty: How did I get phased out?
Alex: You're part of a phase. A phase isn't something you own, it's something you're in.
Skipper: That's it.
Marty: Who voted you Grand Phase Master anyway?
Alex: Me! I voted me! 'Cause I'm the leader!
Casino Host: Black!
Skipper: That's it, baby!
King Julien: Nope?
Maurice: No!
Casino Host: The King of Versailles wins it all! Wow!
Melman: Maybe I should be in charge.
Gloria: Melman!
Melman: I am a medic.
King Julien: Now!?!
Maurice: No!!!
Marty: Why can't we all be leaders?
Gloria: Enough! I'm gonna lead. (But when Gloria is so heavy, she and her friends are going down and they look all the Casino players)
Alex: Heh-heh…
Casino Goers: AAAHHHH!!!!
Alex: Oh! Aha!
Mason: What's new, pussycat?
Skipper: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Alex: Marty, what phase are we at?
Marty: Uh… Phase Three: Apologize!
Alex: Right. Oh, man, we are so sorry.
Skipper: Well, apology accepted. Let's roll!
Alex: (thinks that they forgot about Phase Two of chewing the penguins) Marty! We skipped Phase Two! We didn't chew them out!
Marty: Don't look at me. I'm just following the leader!
(Mort laughing as he's shaking by the clock ringing)
Maurice: Now!
King Julien: I'm a bit busy right now.
Maurice: JUST PULL THE SWITCH!!!!!
King Julien: (Spits the pencils in his mouth) Okay, fine. (and when the lights came on and off every time, Alex and his gang do crazy things while escaping)
Alex: What the heck is going on with the lights?
King Julien: Yo, tell me what you want What you really, really want I'll tell you what l want What l really, really want gonna, I wanna...
Gloria: What are you doing?! Come on!
Guard: Initiate lockdown! And get me Captain Dubois from Animal Control!
Dubois: Non. Rien de rien... Non. Je ne regrette rien... Speak. Oui. A zebra? A hippo? A giraffe? A lion?! When I was seven, I strangled my first parrot, flushed my first goldfish, punched my first snake. Now I have finally reached the moment I have been preparing for my entire life. The pinnacle of my career: to hunt the king of the beasts! Ah…
Alex: Oh, no!
Skipper: Lockdown, eh?
Melman: What do we do?
Gloria: All right, everybody, stand back. I got this one. (Gloria crashes from the metal wall) Never mind.
Skipper: Well, you only get one chance at a first impression. (Whistles and a legendary car came to wreck!)
Alex: What just happened?
Gloria: Where are we? What is this?
Skipper: We call it the Luxury Assault Recreational Vehicle.
Toy: The car goes vroom-vroom!
Skipper: Step on it, boys!
(Private and Rico drive the car. The team makes some wails while the car smashes and drifts out of the Casino, it crashes on top of a red Ferrari.)
People Outside: AAAAHH!!!
(Private throttles the car off the Ferrari which causes it to get damaged more and it sets on fire, causing an explosion.)
(Dubois, in shape of the devil silhouette, and her team come out from the fire and they make a full stop when they pass through the billowing smoke.)
Guard: Captain Dubois, I am so happy to see you! You will not believe...
Dubois: Get back, you fool! (Gets his hand and slaps himself) Your cheap cologne is obscuring the animal musk.
Guard: Oh, my face!
Dubois: Poor, poor animals. You should never have left the forest. Now you deal with me.
Skipper: Kowalski, signal the chimps to meet us at the rendezvous point with the Super Plane. Hotel Ambassador. Let's move it!
Melman: Woo-hoo! Yeah! (Hits a sign) Ow! Huh?
Dubois: Voilà! Giraffe at twelve o'clock.
Melman: Guys, we've got a tail.
King Julien: Paparazzi!
Skipper: Pedal to the metal, Private.
King Julien: Don't take any photos, please! Hi! Here I am! Don't take... (Slow motion) any... photos.
Mort: No more pictures!
Skipper: Medic!
Skipper: ETA to rendezvous point?
Kowalski: Two minutes, 37 seconds, sir.
Skipper: Man, your battle stations!
Alex: Hey! Wait! Nobody's at the wheel! Get back there! Negative on the driver! There's no driver!
Gloria: Help! Nobody's driving! Oh, no!! We're going to die!!!
Skipper: Don't just sit there, fancy pants. Grab the wheel!
Alex: Are you kidding? I don't drive. I'm a New Yorker!
Marty: Move over, Miss Daisy!
Alex: What are you doing? Zebras can't drive! Only penguins and people can drive.
Marty: What do all these buttons do? (plays the song Anyway you Want it by Journey from the radio)
Melman: Help me!
Skipper: Nice one, Stripes!
Maurice: Crazy woman gaining!
Skipper: Our Omega-3 slick will take them down. Private, activate! She's good! Kowalski, intel.
Kowalski: Sir. We have a serious problem. Captain Chantal Dubois. Monaco Animal Control. Perfect case record.
Alex: You're going the wrong way, Marty!
Marty: Just call me Marty-o Andretti.
Alex: No. You're Sucky-o Andretti!
Marty: Stop backseat driving!
Alex: I'm passenger-seat driving, and I want the wheel. Give me the wheel.
Marty: It's not a wheel, it's my baby!
Alex: Your hoofs aren't meant to be on a wheel!
Marty: Hey! Too late for you to drive!
Alex: Don't look at me! Don't look at me when we argue! Look at the road!
Marty: Be cool, be cool! Hi, Officer. Is there a problem?
Alex: Hi.
Melman: Watch out!
Phil: (girl screaming) AHHH!!!
Skipper: We need more power! Time to fire up Kowalski's nucular reactor.
Gloria: That's a nuclear reactor?
Skipper: Nucular.
Melman: She's on the roof!
Kowalski: But, sir, it's not ready. The control rods will have to be calibrated. And don't even ask me about the Uranium-238 blanket.
Skipper: Okay. (And the car goes extra speed while the team starts to scream as Dubois finally falls)
Alex: Okay, Marty, we lost her! Maybe you can slow down now.
Marty: I can't! There's no brakes!
Skipper: No brakes? Well, way to commit, soldier.
(Everyone is starting to scream in panic as it crashes the road construction zone and the sign of Hotel Ambassador while they almost fall!)
Alex: Let's get out of here!
Gloria: Go, go, go! Move! Now!
King Julien: Hey, where's everybody going? Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha… Aah! AAH!! I'm flying! I'm flying! I'm the first flying monkey!
Gloria: Woo-hoo!
Mort: Oh, yay!
Marty: That's our ticket out of here!
Melman: Yeah, baby!
Alex: Everybody! On the monkey chain!
Skipper: Deploy banana gun!
Alex: Grab the little guys! Toss them up! Let's go! Go, go, go! Go!
Gloria: Come on! Move!
Marty: Faster! Faster! Faster! Come on!
Alex: Come on, Melman!
Melman: Hoo! Yeah!
Gloria: Melman!
Melman: My neck!
Skipper: Put your backs into it! Double banana overtime!
Marty: Oh no!
Skipper: Serpentine! Serpentine!
King Julien: Hey, this lady's really starting to freak me out. Fix it, Mort.
Alex: Hold this.
Marty: Alex, be careful! She's crazy!
Alex: You think, Marty?! That's right! Home free, baby!
Melman: I can breathe!
Alex: Au revoir, Dubois!
Dubois: Well, played, lion. Game on.
Alex: New York, New York It's a heck of a town.
Melman: The Bronx is up,
Gloria: But the Battery's down.
Marty: (Scatting).
Everyone: New York, New York It’s a heck of a town (in background) New York, New York It’s a heck of a town The Bronx is up, but the Battery's down The people ride in a hole in the groun' New York, New York—
Skipper: Kowalski, status report.
Kowalski: So, the good news is this song is almost over.
Skipper: Well, that's music to my ears. And the bad news?
Kowalski: The gear assembly is badly damaged, sir. (One of the gears knocked Alex's head unconscious) It's only a matter of time before...
[The super plane falls like it does in the second film and crashes into a train station in France without parachutes to land safely. This was the second time they crashed when they landed in Africa.]
Melman: Why can't we ever just make a normal landing?
Alex: Oh, man!
Gloria: Hold on, Melman. Okay? I'll get you down, sweetie.
Mort: Where is he? Must find King Julien. King Julien!
King Julien: It's getting hot in here So take off all your fur I am getting so hot I want to take my fur off
Alex: Skipper, what about the plane?
Skipper: Well, the chimps will work through the night. No breaks, no safety restrictions. (Unfortunately, all the chimps are running away and they never return) Hey, where are you going?! Get back here! We have a contract!
Mason: Yes. Well, I'm afraid labor laws are slightly more lenient in France. You see, they only have to work two weeks a year.
Skipper: Well, someone else has the Canadian work ethic!
Melman: But you penguins, you can still fix it, right? Right?
Alex: Yeah, yeah. You're a little crackerjack, can-do team.
Skipper: You want me to give it to you straight?
Alex: Yes! Yes! No. Bend it a little?
Skipper: Well, the plane's totaled. Kaput, blammo, busted! Never to fly again.
Gloria: So that's it? That's it then, we're never gonna get home?
Alex: No! We've got to get home! We can fix it! We'll fix it! Yeah, guys, come on, we'll fix it! You just start from the outside pieces, and you work your way in. And, yeah, perfect! Come on! Don't just stand there, guys. Marty! Drag that thingy over here. And we'll just attach it to this dealy-bob over here. And...
Marty: Alex!
Alex: We're not going home. We're never going home.
Marty: It's the fuzz! What are we gonna do? We can't hide forever!
Gloria: And we can't just blend! You know this ain't Africa.
Melman: Oh, what's the point? Tell me one conceivable way that extra-large animals like us are gonna be able to move through Europe without attracting unwanted attention.
Alex: Hey...
[Without warning, the doors open to reveal a vicious tiger named Vitaly.]
Everyone: Aah!
Vitaly: Where are you coming from?
Alex: Please, you got to hide us. Just until the heat dies down.
Vitaly: Absolut no outsiders. So wipe that Smirnoff your face and Popov!
Alex: Oh, come on, man. You gotta do one cat a solid. Cat to cat. Do a solid here, buddy. Come on.
Vitaly: Nyet! This train is for circus animals only.
Stefano: [OS] They sound like they be in trouble.
Vitaly: [OS] Stefano, we do not invite trouble into our circus. l don't trust lion. Hair too big and glossy!
Stefano: [OS] Aw, come on, Vitaly, you're being mean.
Vitaly: [OS] He not lion. He lioness... with a beehive.
Stefano: [OS] This is awkward. We can hear everything they're saying.
Vitaly: [OS] It is not our problem!
Alex: No, no! Wait, wait, wait!
[A sea lion opens the doors, and his name is Stefano]
Stefano: Just give us a minute. He's on the phone and... can't get him off! We cannot leave them there!
Vitaly: [OS] Only circus animals on this train!
Alex: Wait, listen! We are circus animals. You got to let us in!
[A female Jaguar opens the doors, and her name is Gia]
Gia: You are really circus?
Alex: Yes. Full circus!
Gloria: Absolutely!
Marty: My momma was circus. My daddy was circus.
Vitaly: Gia! Shut the door!
Gloria: Please.
Police: Over there! Over there!
Gia: They are circus. Circus stick together!
Vitaly: Ugh…
[They led the animals inside the locomotive as the lemurs and the penguins jump on the roof of locomotive carriages.]
Stefano: Wow! Circus americano! You must all be very famous!
Alex: Yeah, we uh...
Gloria: Absolutely.
Alex: We're relatively well known...
Marty: But Alex is really the star.
Alex: Well, I'm not... I wouldn't say "star." More like... More like... well, star.
Stefano: What is your act, Alice?
Alex: Well... I basically, uh, I jump up on my rock...
Gia: Rock?
Alex: Yeah. It's a very high... rock.
Melman: A really high rock!
Stefano: And then?
Alex: And then, well, I roar like... like a serious "Rawrrr!"
Stefano: And then?
Alex: And then I jump off the rock.
Stefano: And then?!
Alex: And then... And then what?
Gia: That is all?
Gloria: Into a pool!
Marty: Full of water!
Melman: Full of cobras!
Alex: Actually, it appears like I'm jumping into a pool...
Melman: With cobras!
Alex: Aquatic cobras. For effect. But I actually pull up at the last second.
Stefano: Pull up?
Alex: Yeah.
Stefano: How do you do that?!
Melman: Wire harness!
Gloria: Balloons!
Marty: Jetpack!
Alex: Well… (stutters) I flip off the wire harness, ignite my jetpack, and then toss balloons to the children of the world. Kids love it. Kids always love that.
Vitaly: Hmm!
Stefano: ls this like the trapeze?
Alex: Yes! Trapeze! Exactly!
Stefano: Wow! Trapeze americano! Hey, I have a great idea! Maybe you come with us to Roma! Hey, Vitaly is just playing around. He is good, no?
Alex: Yeah, thanks. Thanks. But we're gonna get off at the next stop so we can get back to America.
Stefano: That is such a coincidence! Because we're going... going to... LET ME FINISH!!! We're going to America, as well! Errgh!
Marty: What?!
Alex: America?
Gloria: Going to America?
Melman: What?
Stefano: Si.
Alex: Wow! When?
Stefano: After Roma, we go to London. And then a big-time promoter will see us and then send us to New York.
Alex: They're going to New York!
Gia: Well, only if he likes what he sees.
Alex: New York? Seriously? That's our home. That's where we live.
Stefano: Isn't that fun?
Marty: Could we go with you?
Stefano: Sure! You can bunk with Vitaly!
Alex: Whoa!
Stefano: Or not.
Vitaly: Nyet!
Stefano: Oh, no. I don't think Vitaly likes that idea. What's he gonna do?
Vitaly: Which one of you is leader? Tell your comrades there is one rule we do not break!
Alex: Thou shalt say it and not spray it?
Vitaly: NYET!! Circus owner no allow stowaways!
Skipper: I hear you, Russki. Although the circus owner may allow stowaways, if the stowaways just happens to be the owners. Riddle me that.
Vitaly: What is sharply dressed little birdie talking about?
Skipper: Show 'em, boys.
Ringmaster: You have a deal, mi amigo. I am sure this circus will bring you great success! I guess this is good-bye and good luck!
Melman: What do we know about owning a circus?
Alex: Nothing. But it's our only shot at getting home.
Skipper: You better know what you're doing. You're risking Private's community college fund.
Private: I'll never be president!
King Julien: Hey, this is not first class.
Maurice: Definitely coach.
Mort: La la la la la la la…
King Julien: Mort! Stop it!
Mort: Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee…
King Julien: Hey, gorgeous. Has anyone ever told you that you look like a supermodel? Albeit a fat, hairy one who smells. You have a very hairy back. l like that in a woman.
Police #1: That's it! I'm going in.
Police #2: Stop! It's too dangerous! Don't be a hero!
Dubois: Lion. Twelve hours old. Two hundred and fifty kilograms. Glossy mane. Too much conditioner. Stupid bozos! Hello, kitty! So, you ran away with the circus. What a cliché.
Skipper: What a dump! If they want to attract a decent sports team, they should bulldoze this rat trap and invest in a new arena.
Alex: The Colosseum, Marty! The original theater-in-the-round. You know, my ancestors used to perform here.
Marty: No kidding!
Alex: Yeah. Every show had a captive audience. Apparently, they killed.
Marty: Sounds like a great gig!
Stefano: Trenta minuti, everybody! Trenta minuti!
Marty: This is so exciting!
Alex: Remember, we just lay low. Stay out of the way. Let them do their thing.
Marty: Aw… Would you look at this? You gotta go back in your momma's belly, 'cause you're too cute to be out here in the real world.
Freddie: Oi! Naff off, you muppet!
Marty: Whoa! What the...?
Alex: Marty, they're professionals. Come on.
Marty: Whoo! You look gorgeous!
Alex: All right, animals! We may be your new owners, but we don't want to reinvent the circus wheel here, so just go out, do what you do! Just think of this as a fun warm-up for that promoter in London. Right, Marty? Mar-Marty?
Marty: I want to be a circus horse!
Horse #1: We could paint you white!
Horse #2: And then paint you pink!
Marty: Awesome!
Alex: Not laying very low, are we, Marty?
Stefano: Sonya! Where is the bear? Sonya! We're about to start!
Alex: Hey, Vitaly! Got your game face on. Good game face. What is that cat's problem? "I'm a mean Russian cat who isn't nice to anybody."
Melman: Hey, honey, look! Look, I'm doing it!
Alex: Guys, stop fooling around.
Melman: We're just having a little fun.
Alex: Let's let these animals do their show.
Marty: Ta-da! Da-da da-da-da-da-da-da, circus! Da-da da-da-da-da-da-da, Afro! Circus Afro, Circus Afro, Polka dot, polka dot, polka dot, Afro!
Alex: Really?
Stefano: Sonya! Where is Sonya the bear?!
King Julien: Aha! I want to kiss every inch of your huge head. It may take me a number of weeks. Hey, watch it! That was heavy. Don't cry. Stop crying! It makes me cry to see you cry, my darling. I will get you something even better. Hey, you can buy love. Whoa, not too fast! Watch out!
Gia: Ladies and gentlemen, presenting Gia, the trapeze-flying jaguar! And there she go. The triple-flip roll with a double leap, and... What are you doing?!
Alex: That's just paper.
Gia: Were you spying on me?
Alex: No, no, no! I just came by to say that I don't want you to think... Ah! I don't want you to think of me as some sort of authority figure.
Gia: Don't worry. I don't.
Alex: You don't? Oh.
Gia: Not at all.
Alex: Well, the other circus animals might find me a bit intimidating.
Gia: No. Nobody is intimidated at all by you.
Alex: Oh, good stuff. Good. Good news.
Gia: ln fact, I do not think they have given you a second thought since you showed up.
Alex: That's good to hear.
Gia: If anything, they're starting to feel sorry for you.
Alex: Okay, I get it. Okay? Oh! Ah!
Gia: Ah! ls there more?
Alex: I just wanted to thank you for letting us get on the train back there. I know the big cat with the accent... ...wasn't so excited about us getting on. Ah!
Gia: Look, lion guy. This circus means everything to us. And if you do anything that threatens this circus, you will have to answer to me. Capisce?
Alex: I capisce, cool. Trust me, we're cool. Ah! Woah!
Marty: You call this laying low?
King Julien: Faster! Faster!
Dubois: Where there is circus, there is lion. And when in Rome... Vive la France!
Police: Halt!
King Julien: Come on, my hairy queen. We'll do doughnuts in the Pantheon.
Police #2: You're in big trouble.
Police #3: Now you're really in big trou...
Police #1: Now you're really, really in big tro...
Police #4: l'm-a new!
Stefano: Okay! Strike up the band!
Marty: You have a band?
Stefano: Prepare to be blown away!
Alex: Blow me away!
Stefano: Here we go! Ha-ha!
Alex, Marty & Melman: Yay!
Gloria: Whoo! Yeah!
Stefano: Look at this. Whoa! Hey! It's nice to be ho...
Alex: Yay...
Melman: Whoo…
Gloria: Huh.
Circus Attendee: Hey!
Stefano: Whoa! How do dogs do that?
Circus Attendee #1: Get on with it!
Circus Attendee #2: Stupido!
Alex: Uh-oh…
Audience: Boo!
Skipper: Well, that was worth the price of admission.
Shakey: Watch it, mate!
Stefano: Who's from Cincinnati?
Alex: Stefano, you know "blown away" means good, right?
Stefano: Don't worry. The big finale is coming up! Give me a downbeat! Look at this!
Alex: Oh, no. No, this is not happening.
Ringmaster: You have a deal, mi amigo.
Stefano: It's good, no? Yes, go out and get food and come back!
Marty: Deep breaths. You're in a happy place. It's all good.
Mason: There's an angry mob outside, and they're demanding their money back!
Skipper: I think we all know the right thing to do.
Alex: Come on, come on, come on!
Marty: Come on, come on! Hurry up! Hop on the train!
Gloria: Come on, guys!
Stefano: Mamma Mia!
Gloria: Guys, hurry up!
Stefano: Grazie, Alice.
King Julien: Just throw us the money! Ugh!
Police #1: Captain Chantal Dubois. Get up. I'm going to have to send you back to Monaco under maximum security.
Police #2: What?!
Police #1: It's just a pillow!
Police #3: That's the oldest trick in the book, Comandante. Every bambino in Italy knows that one.
Police #1: Maybe, but do they know about the old escape hole behind the innocent-looking poster? Or the really old "I'm gonna hide up on the ceiling" trick! Of course. The secret tunnel under the bed! Get this thing out of the way. Let's go! This secret tunnel is a dead end! There's nothing but bedsprings and mattress stuffing down here! Was that the sound of a cell door closing?
Dubois: Voila!
Police #1: Was that the sound of my HP printer printing?
Alex: This is a disaster!
Gloria: We blow all our money on a bad circus, and we're not any closer to New York!
Melman: If anything, we're further away!
Marty: We could have at least bought a circus that knew how to circ!
Skipper: I don't even know why we bought a circus in the first place. We had enough dough for a plane!
Melman: Are you kidding me?
Gloria: You must have some money left over.
Skipper: I used it to buy teeth and then have them capped in gold. Now I can eat apples! Sadly, I discovered I… I don't like apples.
Marty: No promoter is sending this show to America. It's toe up!
Gloria: Now it all makes sense. No wonder the circus master was so happy to sell.
Alex: Aah!
Marty: He was happy, all right. Happy about ripping us off!
Alex: Aa-
Gloria: Where did Alex go?
Marty: I don't know.
Alex: AAAHHH!!
Stefano: Come on! This way!
Alex: No, no, no. You come this way!
Stefano: Hey Alice, watch your head!
Alex: Yah!
Stefano: Alice!
Alex: I'm fine!
Stefano: Fantastic! Was that trapeze americano?
Alex: Yeah. Sort of.
Stefano: Incredible!
Alex: I hope this is important.
Stefano: Come this way, Alice!
Alex: By the way, it's "icks" not "iss." Alex. Like New York Knicks.
Stefano: I know. New York Kniss. Is not hard.
Alex: Whoa. What is this place?
Stefano: I know you think we are a stinky, poopy circus, but there is something you must know. There was a time when Circus Zaragoza, we were a great circus! Numero uno in all the Europa! And Vitaly... he was the biggest star of us all. He was fearless. Taking risks. Always new. He jump through the hoop like he could fly!
Vitaly: Stefano! Make the hoop smaller.
Young Stefano: Like this?
Vitaly: Smaller.
Young Stefano: Like this?
Vitaly: Good!
Stefano (narrated): It had never been done before, because it was physically impossible! And the people... they loved it!
Circus Attendee: Viva Vitaly!
Vitaly: Smaller!
Stefano (narrated): And the hoop, she got smaller! Like the ring on a finger of the tiniest lady with the slimmest of fingers.
Circus Attendee: Bravo, Vitaly!
Stefano (narrated): He would not stop pushing! And one fateful day... he push too far.
Vitaly: Light the hoop on fire!
(Vitaly prepares the grand finale and tries to go through the hoop, but got burned alive!)
Stefano (narrated): He fly too close to the sun... and he got burned. Literally. The extra virgin olive oil is extra flammable. And he lost everything. His wife, she run off with a musician. He lost his dignity... his fame... his passion... and his fur. And when it grow back, it is less soft. More like a prickly beard.
Young Stefano: Scusi. Vitaly! (Vitaly roars angrily) AAAHHH!!! NOTHING!!!!!
Stefano (narrated): His only passion now is the borscht.
Alex: Whoa.
Stefan: He was our inspiration. So when he lost his passion, well... as Vitaly goes, so goes the circus. This is why we need your help.
Alex: What sort of help?
Stefano: You can teach us to do new circus. Americano style! We find a new passion. Make a new show. And we go all the way to US and A! A! I know. It is stupido idea. We are a lost cause.
Alex: No, no, no, this isn't stupido. This could work!
Stefano: What?
Alex: What you just said.
Stefano: What?
Alex: The idea you said. Two seconds ago.
Stefano: What?
Alex: Your stupido idea!
Stefano: It could?
Alex: Stefano, you're a genius!
Stefano: No, no, no, no. I am only average intelligence. Some say I'm even slightly below.
Alex: We are gonna rethink everything anybody's ever known about circus! l call it Phase 4-7B, wherein, in order to get home, we will come up with something fresh, something amazing, something brand-new! Fresh, never before seen! Off the chain! Something that'll blow that circus promoter away!
Vitaly: I missed.
Gia: Who do you think you are?!
King Julien: Off with your head!
Freddie: Are you kidding?
Jonesy: I'm gonna chew his leg off!
Vitaly: Circus has been same for generations! We make good, classic family entertainment.
Stefano: Aha! But last few generations, families... not so entertained. [Other circus animals and Julien look awkwardly shocked at him] Mmm..
Alex: That's right. Families not so entertained because you're just going through the motions out there. It's missing passion.
Vitaly: How one to have passion for stool poked in face?
Marty: Exactly! And by stool you mean chair, right?
Alex: The fact is, you guys, you got stuck in a rut. You stopped pushing, you stopped taking risks. But those days are over. Because now we're going to completely change the show.
Freddie: Then it wouldn't be a circus, would it?
Jonesy: Yeah.
Alex: Circus is not about the acts you do. Circus is in here.
Jonesy: How comes Freddie gets all the circus? [Freddie punches him, startling the other dogs] Ugh!
Alex: Circus is about following your passions, wherever they take you!
Vitaly: Pftt. You cannot change circus. There is long tradition!
Alex: That's what everybody thought, Vitaly, until those French Canadians came along, drunk off their maple syrup and cheap pharmaceuticals, and completely flipped the paradigm.
Marty: Now they play Vegas. Fifty shows a day in 52 separate venues. And one of them completely in the nude.
Alex: Yeah, that's right. And you know how they did it?
Stefano: Take off their clothes?
Alex: No. They got rid of the animals.
Stefano: What?
Marty: Say it ain't so!
Stefano: Che stupida! No animals... How could they?!
Alex: Well, you know what I say to that! I say they can take the animals out of the circus, but they cannot take the animals out of the circus! I mean, they cannot... I think you understand what I'm saying!
Circus Animals: Yeah!
Marty: Yes!
King Julien: No!
Alex: We don't need humans because we've got passion. What does a human say when he's passionate? He says, "I'm an animal!" Well, we are animals!
Circus Animals: Yeah!
Alex: We'll make an all-animal circus! Because if we follow our passion, we can go anywhere.
Marty: Anywhere!
Alex: We can do anything!
Marty: Anything!
Alex: If we do it together!
Marty: All of us!
Circus Animals: Yeah... Yeah, yeah!
Alex: Our circus!
Horses: Yeah! Yeah!
Freddie: We're in! We'll have some of that!
Marty: Can I hear you say "fur power"?
Gia: Fur power!
Circus Animals: Fur power! Fur power! Fur power! Fur power! Fur power!
Alex: Take our circus back, and we'll do it together! That’s right!
Gloria: You and me, baby! What?! An act together!
Melman: I love it!
Gloria: We can do that funk and groove dance thing!
Melman: Dance?
Gloria: This thing right here. Look. Me and you! We got this!
Melman: But I- I- I- I- I can't dance.
Stefano: Fur power! Chanting is fun! Chanting is fun!
Gia: Fur power! Fur power! Fur power! Fur power!
Vitaly: I do not trust this lion.
Gia: Vitaly, I may not trust him, either, but I am tired of sitting and standing and rolling over.
Vitaly: It is great tradition of sitting, standing, rolling over.
Gia: You know our circus is in trouble. This could be our last chance. But we will not do this without you.
Stefano: Circus always stay together.
Vitaly: OK. I do one hoop.
Stefano: I want a hug, too!
Dubois: Attention! I have found our lion! He is hiding with the circus! Non! Rien de rien... Non! Je ne regrette nen... Ni le bien, qu'on m'a fait Ni le mal, tout ça m'est bien égal! Non! Rien de rien... Non! Je ne regrette rien... Car ma vie, car mes joies Aujourd'hui, ça commence avec toi!
Mort: Come on, Maurice, give it to me!
Stefano: More boomstick, Rico! I really want to fly!
Marty: Are you really going to shoot yourself out of that thing?
Stefano: I've always dreamed of doing this, from time I was a little pup, to be a human cannonball! Except, you know... a sea lion cannonball.
Marty: ls it dangerous?
Stefano: ls it dangerous? Yes, of course it's dangerous!
Marty: Now, are you sure about this?
Stefano: I'm sure.
Marty: 'Cause if blowing up is your thing, then you in the right place.
Stefano: Si. That's means yes!
Skipper: Ready for launch?
Stefano: Ready for launch!
Skipper: Fire in the hole!
Stefano: Wait! AAAAAAAHHH!!! Mamma mia! Help-a me!
Marty: Rico! Get the cannon ready! Same charge!
Skipper: Fire in the hole!
Marty: Whoa! Ah! Ah! Whoa! All right! Ha-ha! Yeah! Woo--
Stefano: Marty! I'm so glad you're here.
Marty: Whoo! I was flying! I was effin'-L-Y-in'!
Stefano: I'm proud of you, but... ...I don't think I can hold on much longer!
Marty: Oh, yeah, right. Sorry about my enthusiasm. Here, wrap this around you. All right, I got you! I got you! Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Forget about being part of the herd! I'm gonna be part of the flock! l'm going to fly, baby!
Stefano: Oh, yes! What a triumph!
[Meanwhile, Freddie is bullying his siblings, and repeatedly punches Bobby. He also hits Sammy and Shakey (who try to save Bobby), while Frankie also attempts to stop Freddie with her switchblade.]
Bobby: Oi, what’s he doing?
Frankie: Hand over that circus, Freddie!
Freddie: I'll have my blue guts for garters!
Alex: Hey, hey, put your weapons down.
Bobby: Aw, get off.
Alex: Guys, chill out. Cute and cuddly's obviously not your thing.
Shakey: What?
Freddie: He's got us pegged. [Bobby gets his revenge by punching Freddie back] Oh!
Alex: I got a better idea. Show 'em, Rico.
Jonesy: Aah! That was great! Woah!
Shakey: Flippin' 'eck!
Bobby: Rocket shoes!
Sammy: I want to try that.
Bobby: Come on!
Sammy: Yeah!
Freddie: Jonesy! Jonesy!
Alex: Whoo. Hey. Hi.
Gia: I admire how you have inspired these animals.
Alex: Oh. Thanks.
Gia: And what you said about passion, it was like poetry.
Alex: I love passion and poetry. They go together, really. I mean, I know they don't rhyme.
Gia: Trapeze is my passion!
Alex: Terrific. I look forward to seeing you up there.
Gia: You can teach me!
Alex: What?
Gia: Teach me.
Alex: Well, I've always been kind of a solo act. So that kind of rules that out.
Gia: I wonder if you actually do trapeze.
Alex: Oh, I actually do do trapeze.
Gia: Show me!
Alex: "Show me"? What are we, five?
Gia: I am five, yes.
Melman: Dancing. All you're doing is moving and not getting anywhere. I mean, the music totally throws off my timing. You want excitement? Ha-ha. Check it out. Who's on a tightrope, huh? Who's on a... Aaah! I'm on a tightrope! I'm on a tightrope!
Gloria: Melman! Oh, my gosh!
Melman: Help me!
Gloria: Baby, hold on. Hold on. I'm coming right now!
Melman: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Gloria: Melman?!
Melman: Aah! Aah! Aah!
Gloria: Calm down, Melman.
Melman: I'm going to fall and break all of my neck!
Gloria: Just look at me. Look at me. All eyes on me.
Melman: Okay.
Gloria: Come to me.
Melman: I can't.
Gloria: lt's just like dancing, Melman. Two steps forward, one step back.
Melman: I can't dance, OK? OK? There, I said it.
Gloria: Maybe because you've never tried.
Melman: No, I have tried. I practiced in private because you dance so well.
Gloria: You practiced? For me?
Melman: Yes, but it's no use. I never know what to do with my arms.
Gloria: Hold it. That part is so easy, Melman. OK? 'Cause all you have to do is put them around your partner. See? Two steps forward. One step back.
Melman: I'm dancing. I'm dancing!
Gloria: Two steps forward. One step back.
Melman: We're dancing on a tightrope!
Gloria: You're great.
Melman: I'm dancing!
Alex: OK. Ha. Hoo… All right.
Gia: So when do we get the jet packs and aquatic cobras?
Alex: This is a beginners' class, and that's a pretty advanced maneuver.
Gia: Okay, how do we begin?
Alex: lt's a bit complicated unless you understand the whole pitch and yaw... arc and gravity. All that stuff, which I won't bore you with. OK.
Gia: Do you need a push?
Alex: No. Just watch and learn! Whoa! Whoa!
Gia: Like that?
Alex: That's one way of doing it, sure.
Gia: You use a net!
Alex: Yes! Trapeze americano. We use the net.
Gia: Trapeze americano!
Freddie: Look at him go!
Alex: Haha! Woah!
Jonesy: Yeah!
Gia: Wow!
Stefano: E bravo! Bravissima! Hey, Vitaly, maybe you even do two hoops, no?
Skipper: Senorita Bell-bottoms. Tenemos una problema grande.
Alex: Qu? Qu grande problema? Oh, no! She's onto us!
Skipper: Don't make it any easier on the psycho.
Alex: What are we gonna do?
Skipper: We'd better vamoose... pronto.
Alex: But we're not ready. We're in the middle of rehearsals.
Skipper: Then why don't you lilt over, grab your peduncle, and kiss New York good-bye?
Stefano: Are you sure we are ready?
Alex: Of course we're ready! Born ready! Ready steady! Come on, let's go! Let's go, go, go, go, go!
Skipper: All right, you heard the cat. Move it! Come on! All aboard! Grab your luggage and drain your bladders. lt's going to be a long ride!
Alex: All right, everybody, let's blow that promoter away!
Melman: London, here we come!
Marty: Sunshiny London, yes!
Audience: Vitaly! Vitaly! Vitaly! Vitaly!
Skipper: Ah, come on, come on, come on. Where is he? Bingo! If that's not a red-blooded American promoter, I don't know what is. We need to get this show on the road. Private! Tell them the eagle has landed.
Private: The eagle has landed!
Alex: Roger that. Oh! And keep an eye out for Dubois.
Private: Aye, aye, guvnor!
Alex: The promoter is in the house! New York is closer than ever! Let's not get ahead of ourselves. First, we got a circus to do.
Gloria: Got it.
Alex: We're on, folks!
Horse #1: Do we go on before or after the dogs?
Alex: Yes.
Horses: What?
Alex: Overlap, your acts overlap.
Horse #2: We go in between?
Alex: Where's Vitaly? He opens.
Horse #2: l don't know.
Alex: Stefano! Hey, Stefano! Have you seen Vitaly? Hey. Stefano, why the sad little face?
Stefano: Vitaly... he will not go on!
Alex: What?
Stefano: I tried everything I could.
Alex: Shhhhh.. Wipe away the tears. Calm down. Where is he? I'm sure I can reason with him. Vitaly, what are you doing?
Vitaly: You missed.
Alex: You're leaving? You're just gonna walk out on everybody?
Vitaly: They have good show without me.
Alex: Look, I got a good left foot, but without my right foot, I can't walk.
Vitaly: You get fake foot, then you walk.
Alex: I don't want fake foot! OK?
Vitaly: Ugh.
Alex: What happened to "circus stick together"? "The show must go on."
Vitaly: Clichés.
Alex: Come on, man. Stop being this guy! Be the other guy!
Vitaly: What other guy?
Alex: The guy who was all circus! The guy who jumped through hoops! Give me that! The guy everybody looked up to. Come on. Where's that Vitaly?
Vitaly: That Vitaly is no more.
Alex: Listen, man. You may have given up on yourself, but your friends haven't given up on you. Are you just going to turn your back on them, and sit and eat borscht the rest of your life? Or are you gonna get out there and jump through that tiny little hoop?
Vitaly: It is impossible.
Alex: It was always impossible, Vitaly. That's why the people loved it.
Vitaly: That is why I loved it. Because I did the impossible! I was once a brave tiger. And if I go down in flames... Heh-heh-heh! So be it!
Alex: You know, I think I might have an idea for you.
(So back at the stage, after a big failure of using olive oil being extra flammable from the tragic past, Vitaly is preparing to use hair conditioner to find out that it will be fireproof to avoid his same fate.)
Vitaly: Light the hoop on fire!
Stefano: Mamma mia, Santa Maria, Santa Maria... Mamma Maria, mia Santa, Santa Mia Farrow...
Alex: Come on, you got it.
Circus Attendee: Yeah!
Stefano: Yes!
Alex: All right, what are you waiting for?! We got a show to put on! Let's go! Go, go, go, go, go!
("Firework - Katy Perry" playing)
Kid: Look!
Alex: We're going to America! Whoo! Today! Yeah! Hey! Whoo!
Marty: That's what I call crack-a-lackin' to the mack-a-lackin'!
Stefano: We did it, Alice!
Alex: Yeah!
Stefano: Maybe I am average intelligence after all!
Alex: Perhaps even slightly above.
Stefano: No, I don't think so.
Vitaly: Ha! Hair conditioner. Great idea, my friend! Feel. Go ahead. Soft like kitten, no?
Stefano: Ah. Look at that.
Alex: Slippery but not flammable.
Stefano: You smell like peaches and herb!
Alex: Wow!
Gia: Gia and Alex, the trapezing cats!
Alex: We did pretty good.
Gia: You will flip, and I will catch. And sometimes I will flip, and you will catch. And then we will both flip, and we'll travel the whole world! Flipping and catching, and I will flip you!
Marty: Ah bleep bleep blap bloappa beebidi doah
Marty, Gloria, & Melman: New York, New York It’s a heck of a town
Gia: We all flip! Maybe at the same time!
Alex: Uh.. You know, the thing is... I may not always be around.
Gia: Where are you going?
Alex: Well, I'm... I'm... I'm...
Dubois: Bravo, bravo! What a heartwarming performance, Monsieur Circus Master. It brought tears to my eyes. No, not really. Monsieur, we both know the lion does not belong to you.
Private: It's that horrid woman!
Dubois: He is a fugitive from justice. You will turn the lion over to me so that I may put him where he belongs. On my wall. What?
Skipper: lncoming! Outgoing!
Dubois: Wait!
Skipper: Up high! Down low. Too slow. Well done, Private.
Private: Did I do good?
Skipper: Nah, not really.
Melman: Man, that was close!
Gia: Alex? You are from a zoo?
Alex: Yes. Yes. But wait, there's more.
Gia: More?
Alex: Or less. There's less.
Vitaly: You were never circus?
Gloria: We had to say we were circus.
Melman: Or you'd never have let us on the train!
Gia: After all we have been through together... you want to go live in a zoo?
Alex: Gia, I...
Vitaly: You used us.
Alex: No, no, no. I mean, yes, but...
Gia: Trapeze americano, you make that up, too?
Alex: lt didn't exactly exist when I taught it to you.
Gia: Oohh! Jetpacks and aquatic cobras! I should have known.
Stefano: Balloons to the children of the world was not real, either?
Alex: Well, yeah, that's not real. But look at what we did.
Stefano: I was shot out of a cannon! I could have died!
Marty: But I thought it was your lifelong dream.
Stefano: For all I know, your name is not even Alice.
Alex: No, Stefano, but it never really was.
Stefano: I don't feel safe!
Alex: Gia, I...
Gia: [sadly] We trusted you.
Stefano: My tears are real! You are not!
Skipper: I can't believe you lied to all us circus folk.
King Julien: Me? Stay with the circus? I am a king! I want to rule New York! We should talk. Whoa! Stop it! No means no! Or in your language... Not everything is solved that way, you know. Sonya? Are you listening to me? Now I'm getting the silent treatment, am I? Come over here, right now! Don't shut me out, baby! What is wrong with you? Speak! [Sonya roars] OK... if these are your feelings, I understand now. And l'm going! lt's obvious I'm just an emotional whoopee cushion for you to sit on! When you look for where I am, l won't be there!
[Finally arriving New York, Alex and his gang left the circus. Vitaly was waiting for the circus to begin.]
Vitaly: Come, everybody. We have show to do.
Stefano: But how do I go on without Marty?
Vitaly: Stefano.
Stefano: I don't know what to do.
Vitaly: You can still do cannon solo.
Stefano: [crying] But... I want to do solo act with Marty!
Gia: And what do I do? Go back to sitting and standing and rolling over?
Vitaly: No. We can do impossible! And we never go back to way we used to be.
Stefano: The way it used to be isn't the way it was. And it won't be the same without them, whatever way it is.
Gloria: Well... we're here.
Marty: Home.
Alex: Huh. My rock looks smaller than I remember it.
Marty: Look at the mural. Doesn't actually capture the real thing, does it?
Gloria: Wow. I forgot about that wall in between us, Melman.
Melman: Mm-hmm.
Gloria: Was that always there?
Marty: (remembered about his escape to the Grand Central Station from the first movie) Guys, I'm sorry I ever left the zoo in the first place.
Alex: What do you mean?
Marty: I mean, if I had just stayed put, we wouldn't have anything to be sad about right now.
Alex: Leaving the zoo was the best thing that ever happened to us.
Marty: Really?
Alex: Yeah. Out there, in the world, we were really living.
King Julien: Yeah!
Alex: It was exciting!
Gloria: It was romantic.
Melman: It was dangerous.
Marty: I never felt so alive!
Alex: When we were with the circus, we were already home. I only wish we'd realized that sooner.
Melman: I'm really going to miss those guys.
Alex: What do you say we go back?
Gloria: Really?
Marty: I'm with you!
King Julien: I'm in!
Melman: But what do we tell them?
Alex: Well, we make it right by telling them how wrong we were.
Marty: It's worth a shot.
Alex: [in Russian Accent of what Vitaly said] And if we go down in flames, so be it!
Gloria: Yes, let's do this!
King Julien: I like it!
Marty: Yeah, yeah!
Melman: [woozy] Is my neck getting longer?
Alex: [woozy] Feel my fur. It's so soft.
Gloria: [woozy] It is soft.
Marty: [woozy] I'm like a candy cane in a black and white movie.
Alex: Oh, no. Dubois.
King Julien: [woozy] Sonya, I miss you, baby! I miss my stinky bear! Babe... your fishy kisses!
Dubois: Surprise! He will never fit in the carry-on. But his head will! [evil laughter]
Zookeeper #1: Hey!
Dubois: Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Zookeeper #1: Look! Look what she's done! You brought back Alex the lion!
Zookeeper #2: lt's a miracle!
Zookeeper #3: You brought him home! You’re our hero!
Zookeeper #1: Thank you! Thank you!
King Julien: Sonya, where are you? Sonya! Excuse me. [Sonya roars] Sonya, baby! I don't want to be king anymore! I was so hung up on who I was... ...who you was... what you smelled like... ...when all that really matters is what we smell like together. I know! Baby, forgive me. Oh, hello?
[Kowalski pulled the dar out of Julien's tail.]
Kowalski: Gasp! lt's Dubois!
Skipper: Baba booey! Where did you get this?
King Julien: l got it from the zoo.
[Skipper puts Julian back into Sonya's mouth.]
Skipper: The hippies got ambushed!
[The Circus animals are shocked.]
Gia: What? We have to help them!
Horse: But they lied to us!
Jonesy: Yeah. Why should we lift a paw?
Gia: They are our friends!
Jonesy: They're not even circus!
Vitaly: That's Bolshevik!!
[The dogs felt ashamed.]
