Alex the Lion : What is it, Melman?
Melman the Giraffe : Okay, okay. Oh. You know how I have that bladder infection and I have to get up every two hours? I got up to pee and looked over at Marty's pen, which I usually don't do. I don't know why, but I did. And...
Alex the Lion : What, Melman? What's going on?
Melman the Giraffe : It's Marty. He's gone.
Alex the Lion : Gone?
[hits his head]

Gloria the Hippo : Mm-hmm, I know that's right.
Alex the Lion : We gotta go after him.
Melman the Giraffe : Go after him?
Alex the Lion : He's not thinking straight. We gotta stop him from making the biggest mistake of his life. He's probably out there lost and cold, confused. Poor little guy.
