Hamish : [presenting Lucy, a snake, with snake food] Here's some extra, Lucy, because you missed lunch. It's not my fault we were out searching.
Wagstaff : [reading an animal encyclopedia] Just as I thought: those were Fluppies!
[flipping the pages of his encyclopedia]
Wagstaff : Hamish, see if the police have gotten any reports yet.
[reading the fluppies entry]
Wagstaff : "A mythical beast able to speak like humans, from a land of snow and colorfully lighted skies"!
[laughs]
Wagstaff : Mythical, my foot!
[speaking to an imprisoned platypus]
Wagstaff : They thought *you* were mythical once.
[turning to Hamish]
Wagstaff : Get the nets; we're going to scour the city!
Hamish : [as Lucy starts to choke him around his neck and shoulders with her tail; he strains] Be right--there--sir!
Wagstaff : [opening a door to reveal a great hallway] The world's finest collection of exotic animals, and now--FLUPPIEEES!

Wagstaff : [in his car, on the phone] If they give us trouble, buy them out.
[covering the mic with his hand]
Wagstaff : Hamish, what's the hold-up?
Hamish : Uh, looks like dogs loose on the street, Mr. Wagstaff.
Stanley : [jumping onto the car hood and calling to the others] This way!
Wagstaff : That dog talked!

Wagstaff : [he and Hamish have arrived at the animal shelter to try to capture the remaining Fluppies for their collection] Let me in!
Hamish : I--think the pound is closed, sir.
Wagstaff : *Closed*?
[he dashes back to the car]
Hamish : If only the police had called sooner.
Wagstaff : Closed?
[getting back in the car to call up the mayor to open the pound]
Wagstaff : Not with my Fluppies inside.
[closing the car door, then calling the mayor]
Wagstaff : Hello, get me the mayor.

Wagstaff : What? Then get him out of bed! This is J.J. Wagstaff calling!
