Quotes 

• Marlene : What in the world are you guys doing?

  Skipper : I might ask you the same question, except for the guy part.

• Skipper : You know, in Tasmania, cheating at Stomp The Wombat is a capital crime.

• Skipper : Maurice, fill me in, three words or less.

  Maurice : Well, well I...

  Skipper : No capisce. Try four words.

  Maurice : I don't think you...

  Skipper : Make it five words.

  Maurice : If you would just listen...

  Skipper : All right, I'll give you six words, but we're wasting valuable time here.

• Skipper : Quick, Marlene, describe the enemy terrain.

  Marlene : It's kinda jungly. So that could be, let me think, what, South America? Africa? Asia? Maybe Australia?

  Skipper : You gotta focus, Marlene! You just mentioned four of the eight continents.

  Maurice : Uh, there are only seven continents.

  Skipper : I count Atlantis. Trust me, lemur, if you had my security clearance, you would too.

• Skipper : This next game was invented by double-jointed Hungarian acrobats from the Munich circus.

• Marlene : I don't think these are the kind of creatures you can reason with.

  Skipper : Dont' worry, Marlene. Neither are we.

• Skipper : What's your sick and twisted game, Maurice?

  Maurice : That's King Maurice, ruler of all I survey! Surrender to my supreme and mighty power!

  Skipper : Well, that's going to be a bit of a problem. You see, I don't know the meaning of the word surrender.

  Kowalski : Surrender is a verb, Skipper. It means to give up or yield... Oh, I see. Here' I'll do it myself.

  [Slaps himself] 

• Marlene : I'm just heading over the the reptile house to welcome the new neighbors. No one's seen them yet. I figure they're just shy. You want to come with?

  Skipper : Not without the proper recon, Marlene. We could be dead a thousand times over in that new habitat. Venemous vipers, bloodthirsty...

  Private : Badgers?

  Skipper : Flying piranha!

  Marlene : Okay, yeah. Piranha don't fly.

  Skipper : That's just what Manfredi and Johnson said back in Ecuador. We buried what was left of them with a teaspoon.

• Skipper : Listen up, lemur. Maurice ate those bad nuts. He went off the deep end.

  Kowalski : He's turned the lemur habitat into an armed fortress.

  Private : He's enslaved the entire zoo!

  King Julien : I cannot be believing my ears. Maurice ate my lychee nuts!

• Maurice : But there has to be somebody for me to advise. There has to be a king!

  Skipper : [Puts Julien's crown on Maurice's head]  Ring-a-ding-ding, you're a king.

  Maurice : What? I can't be the king! I'm just the king's right hand man. And when the right hand man becomes the man, then the king is left with no right...

  Skipper : Listen up, lemur. Until Julien comes back, someone has to step up and take charge.

  Maurice : But I...

  Skipper : It's either you or Sad-eyes.

  [Points at Mort, who is crying and swaying until he falls over] 

  Maurice : All right. But Julien will always be our one and only king.

• Skipper : Marlene, I told you to leave this to us.

  Marlene : No you didn't.

  Skipper : In your mind, maybe.

• Skipper : Pop quiz, troops! What can't we trust?

  Kowalski : Three-day-old mung beans.

  Skipper : Right. What else can't we trust?

  Private : Badgers!

  Skipper : What?

  Private : Maybe that's just me.

• Kowalski : Unknown hostiles with tentacles and feet.

  Skipper : Again? If I had a nickel for every time...

• Skipper : So, always listen to your gut.

  Kowalski : Sorry, Skipper, that's an anatomical impossibility.
