• Danger Mouse : Well, we've got a day left of our holiday. Come on.

  Penfold : Where are we going?

  Danger Mouse : To get a specimen of the incredibly rare prune-juggling vampire parrot!

  Penfold : Oh, erm, do I have to come too?

  Danger Mouse : 'Course you do, Penfold. I need someone to pretend to be a prune.

• Penfold : [as Danger Mouse tangles with a crocodile]  We could have had a day out in Brighton!

  Danger Mouse : I do not wish to know that, Penfold!

• [Baron Greenback has made off with the crown] 

  Penfold : [sees DM laugh]  What's so funny, Chief?

  Danger Mouse : Greenback's got it, and now he's going to get it!

  Penfold : But I thought he already had it?

  Danger Mouse : No, it just occurred to me: why would the world's greatest practical joker hide a crown in the first place?

  Penfold : Oh, Chief... you're not saying it was a trick!

  Danger Mouse : No?

  [big explosion heard, along with Greenback screaming] 

  Danger Mouse : Lucky for us, the scream of a falling frog is one of the few things those natives are frightened of.

• Penfold : Chief, look at these straws.

  Danger Mouse : Straws? Good grief! The poisonous peashooters of the Hideous Headbangers! They're a tribe of extremely unsavory natives!

  Baron Silas Greenback : [heard offscreen]  Correct. You obviously know your Observer's Book of Native Tribes, witless wonder.

  Danger Mouse : Baron Greenback!
