- Barnes: All right ladies, line up. I'm your new Gym teacher. You can call me "Coach Barnes." Or once you come to love me - Blitz.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: [after the rest of the class has dispersed] Hey "Blitz." You know I was wondering when I'd run into you. Gym teacher? That's your cover. Really? You're coming down in the world since the last school.
- Barnes: The whole Vice Principal thing really cramped my style. I could only yell at kids. Here - I can get a lot more physical.
- Margaret Rosenblat: Duncan, this is a new school not an execution. Just try to socialize, make some friends.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: And stop getting intofights. They're the ones who start it. Jerks are instinctively drawn to me like... a homing pigeon.
- Margaret Rosenblat: Duncan, you're a 16 year old boy like every other guy in your class. And every other kid has problems of their own.
- [Kisses Duncan on the cheek]
- Margaret Rosenblat: So if you can just get along with people and keep your temper. Everything's going to be just fine.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Message received.
- [Duncan starts to leave]
- Margaret Rosenblat: And Duncan.
- [Margaret makes a handsign]
- Duncan Rosenblatt: I love you too, mom.
- Margaret Rosenblat: Actually, that time it was "Rock on."
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Do you really know cryptozoology?
- Kenny: Oh yeah, Isabel loves all that creepy stuff. She's a giant monster fan girl.
- Isabel: Monster is in the eye of the beholder. They're Kaiju, Kenny.
- Dr. Pytel: It's firebreath. Yeah. You have it, Duncan. You'll learn to control it in time, but until then you're going to have to stay out of situations with uh, potential conflict.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Like High School?
- Margaret Rosenblat: I have a legal contract with MEGTAF stipulating that my son have a normal a life as humanly possible.
- Isabel: It doesn't make sense. Why now? Why here?
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Because I'm here. He's looking for me.
- Isabel: Why?
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Because he's not only Belloc - King of the Kaiju. He's also... my... dad.
- Belloc: Excellent Duncan. Let me look at you.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Why don't you just kill me and get it over with?
- Belloc: If I wanted to kill you, you'd be dead.
- Belloc: Though you are my son - you are weak.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: I'm strong enough!
- Belloc: NO, the human world has made your heart soft. You must be hard and ruthless if you are to rule the Kaiju.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: You ignore me for 16 years and you expect to train me for something I don't even want?
- Astraroth: You desecrate our race! You shame our ceremony!
- Abbadon: Bad enough you keep us from exterminating the human vermin. Now you mate with them!
- Belloc: Who challenges their king? You Abbadon? Or you Astraroth?... I thought as much. Then I make my choice. This is Duncan - my heir!
- Duncan Rosenblatt: What happens now?
- Barnes: Half of MEGTAF is scouring the desert for him, Margaret. If Belloc's out there, we'll find him.
- Margaret Rosenblat: Colonel Barnes, Maybe you should send out *all* of MEGTAF, since half of it is having difficulty finding a 120 foot giant.
- Margaret Rosenblat: Your father is a great many things, but he is not a monster. You don't know the things he's gone through. The *good* things he's done. I don't expect you to understand, but I did love him - and he gave me you.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: So what am I? Am I human or am I Kaiju?
- Margaret Rosenblat: You're you, that's all that matters.
- Barnes: Well then I'm guessing it has something to do with taking Jenna to Homecoming.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Yeah. How - how did you -?
- Barnes: I'm your guardian angel. I know everything - except how you got her to say yes.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Well some of us got it and some - Wait! this isn't the way to the base.
- Belloc: The Kaiju know of your existence. Any of them may challenge your right to succeed me at any time.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: I don't want to succeed you!
- Belloc: But you do want to live. Only your bloodlust will save you!
- Jenna: [Duncan picks up Jenna for Homecoming] Oh look, you brought your friends. That's so thoughtful.
- Isabel: We usually don't do school functions, but since this is the first dance with a Kaiju alert level, we didn't want to miss it.
- Jenna: Any other surprises I should know about?
- Duncan Rosenblatt: No.
- Margaret Rosenblat: [From the station wagon] Let's get this show on the road! I'm supposed to be there early.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Oh... yeah.
- Jenna: [Margaret grabs a large weapon] Whoa! What's that for?
- Margaret Rosenblat: Duncan's father and I have some... unresolved issues. Ready to meet Duncan's daddy?
- Barnes: Why? Why'd you save me?
- Duncan Rosenblatt: You know I need an "A" in gym class. Consider this extra credit.
- Barnes: They'll probably kill you anyway.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Before they do, I'll be sure to tell them where they can grab some lunch afterwards.
- Belloc: You didn't kill them.
- Duncan Rosenblatt: I wanted to. But it wouldn't have changed anything.
- Margaret Rosenblat: It would have changed you.
- Belloc: But you did beat them. I wouldn't have thought it possible. Perhaps there was some value in leaving you with your mother.
- Ms. Dreakford: I'd like to ask the whole class to give a warm welcome to Duncan Xerxes Absalom Belphegor Gressil Pythis Wu Fan...
- Duncan Rosenblatt: Uh, Yeah, just "Duncan" is fine, Ms. Dreakford.
- Ms. Dreakford: Oh, All right. Take a seat, Duncan.
