Dr. Fry : [Dr Fry is about to use a remote control to send the chickens to be processed into nuggets when Rocky and Ginger catch his attention] It's the funky chicken and the ginger one too.
[gasps]
Dr. Fry : Oh no, my wife will not be happy with this. Come on here now, you naughty little...
[Trips on a tape wire set up by Rocky and Ginger]
Dr. Fry : [screaming] ... CHICKENNS!
[Dr. Fry falls into his rolling chair which rolls down the stairs and is sent spinning towards an abstract egg sculpture. A giant white egg from the scupture falls and encases Dr. Fry's head]
Dr. Fry : [muffled] Oh dear!
Rocky : [triumphantly] See you on the flip side, egg head!
[He laughs; to Ginger]
Rocky : You get it?
Mrs. Tweedy : [via walkie-talkie] Dr. Fry? What's going on up there?
Ginger : [to Rocky] Quick. Come on.
[They hurry away, while Dr. Fry wanders around blindly]
Mrs. Tweedy : [cont. on walkie talkie] Dr. Fry? Dr. Fry?
Dr. Fry : [muffled] H-Hello?

Mrs. Tweedy : [Elevator doors open to reveal Mrs. Tweedy screaming into the walkie talkie]
Mrs. Tweedy : DR. FRY! WHERE ARE MY NUGGETS? Honestly! That man is as useful as a headless...

Mrs. Tweedy : [fiercely] ... Chicken!

[Ginger and her friends have tried to escape the silo, to no avail]
Bunty : Face the facts, duck. We need a miracle to get out of here.
Rocky : [calling from an opening from above] Hey! Anybody down here?
Molly : Dad!
Ginger : Rocky!
Bunty : [laughs happily; to Ginger] Do not tell him he's our miracle, There'll be no living with him.
-
Ginger : [upon being asked what to about rescuing Molly] Last time, we broke out of a chicken farm. Well, this time... We're breaking in!
-
Ginger : [the chickens and the rats are trying the escape the silo by standing on top of one another, creating a ladder-like tower] Fetcher, quickly! Find a ledge or a crack to hold onto!
Fetcher : Righto!
[Fetcher immediately grabs Nick's keister. Nick reacts in pain and annoyance]
Nick : OW! NOT *THAT CRACK*!
-
Ginger : [Ginger has been brainwashed by the collar; singing deliriously] I'm H-A-P-P-Y! I'm H-A-P-P-Y! Oh, Yes I am! I'm sure I am! I'm H-A-P-P-Y! Come on!
Molly : Shush, Mum. We have to be quiet.
Ginger : But I want to sing!
Molly : Shh!
[whispers]
Molly : Just follow me.
[grabs Ginger's hand]
Ginger : Oh, goody. Are we going on holiday?
Molly : No, we have to find Frizzle and Dad and get out of here.
Ginger : But why?
[falls to the floor and groans]
Molly : Because I say so.
Ginger : [blowing a raspberry] Well, you're not the boss of me.
[laughs]
Ginger : I can see my feet.
Molly : [hearing the guards coming their way] Come on, Mum.
[drags Ginger by the feet]
Ginger : Cooee!
-
Bunty : [Rocky has just expained a half-baked synopsis of an rescue mission; Bunty is very annoyed] That's not a plan! That's just saying what you wish would happen!
Mac : [in a very thick Scottish dialect] Aye, and twelve herrings and bagpipes are just a pile of mince if you cannae kent the rules!
Rocky : [not understanding what Mac is saying] You know... that sounded a bit negative to me.
Ginger : Mac's right, we need more details. We have only one shot at this.
-
Molly : [Molly wants to go explore the Happy Chicken Farm trucks, much to the chagrin of her mother] I'm going over to see these trucks, cuz I'm a lone free ranger... like dad was!
[Ginger gasps]
Molly : I've seen his poster.
[Ginger gasps louder]
Molly : He came from over there and you did too!
Ginger : [glaring at Rocky; gasping] Ah!
Rocky : [sheepish denial] Did I say that? I don't... I don't quite remember.
Ginger : [fed up] That's it! Molly, you are NOT leaving this island!
Molly : You can't make me stay here! You're not the boss of me.
Ginger : Actually, I am. Look, Molly you have everything you want *right here*.
Molly : [bitterly] Except for one thing.
Ginger : And what is that?
[Molly glowers at Ginger]
Molly : *Freedom.*
[Ginger gasps, hurt and shocked. Molly angrily storms off into the house and slams the door shut]
Rocky : [to Ginger] You know, she is a lot like you.
-
[Molly has run away to the world outside the island sanctuary; Rocky and Ginger are paddling across the lake in a log canoe to the other side where Molly has gone. Rocky is in the middle of explaining Ginger how Molly figured out about their past lives as 'a Lone Free Ranger' and a 'Freedom-Fighting Chicken' respectively]
Rocky : I mean, so she found my poster, and I told her a story. I don't think it was that big of a deal.
Ginger : [sarcastically] Oh, no. It was perfectly sensible to encourage our daughter to be a 'Lone Free Ranger".
Rocky : You know, if you had it your way, she'd still be in her shell.
Ginger : Well, *better* in her shell, than out on the open road!
