Quotes 

• Skipper : This is just a routine visit to the doctor. Turn and cough, boys. Turn and cough.

• Skipper : Think again, Doctor Deranged! I don't do needles.

• Private : Skipper, something's wrong with the sun.

  Skipper : He finally did it!

  Private : Who did what?

  Skipper : My mad dolphin nemesis, Dr. Blowhole! He blew out the sun!

  Kowalski : Actually, according to my calculations, it is the rare cosmic event known as a solar eclipse.

  Rico : Huh?

  Skipper : Are you sure it's not the crazed handiwork of my marine mammal foe?

  Kowalski : It's totally natural. The moon is between the sun and the Earth... Ooh, it's a total eclipse! Wow! Are you as totally stoked about this as I am?

• Skipper : Kowalski, options.

  Kowalski : We'll need a diversion. I suggest releasing the spider monkeys. Bedlam is their middle name.

  Skipper : They never disappoint.

  Kowalski : Amid the chaos, we escape through the south entrance.

  Skipper : Good. And then?

  Kowalski : Then, we get jobs as holiday store displays. When we've earned enough money, we build a new secret lair, one with laser beams.

  Private : Ooh, laser beams!

• Skipper : Kowalski, analysis.

  Kowalski : I'm picking up good vibrations.

• Skipper : That's it! No more mister nice guy.

  Private : For you or Julien?

  Skipper : Whatever works.

• Skipper : Gentlemen, had this had been an actual tennis ball machine uprising, we would've lost. Game, set, match.

• Skipper : Sounds like the sky spirits are sending you a message.

  King Julien : But I am being extra crazy nice.

  Skipper : New York sky spirits are fickle pickles.

• Kowalski : Skipper, I have what you're looking for.

  Skipper : Outstanding! So when's the next big eclipse?

  Kowalski : From today, 27 years, in Brazil.

  Private : Ooh, I've always wanted to go to Carnaval.

• Private : Skipper, what are you doing here?

  Skipper : Saving you from saving me.

  Private : But really, I don't mind having another shot. I can always... turn the other cheek. He-he!

  Skipper : You'll mind if it makes you sick. Or worse.

  Private : How worse?

  Skipper : You know, the chimps didn't say. I assumed you'll grow a second head or something.

  Private : I don't want a second head!

  Skipper : Then hurry, man! The doc will be here any second.

  [Skipper tosses Private towards the window, but misses and he hits the wall; Private then climbs up to the window and turns to Skipper] 

  Private : You know, Skipper, none of us think any less of you for being afraid.

  Skipper : Well, I do. That fear almost hurt a friend. Now get out of here, soldier.

• King Julien : Just waiting for you to roll over so I can fluff up your pillow.

  Skipper : Not necessary.

  King Julien : It is okay, I'm prepared to wait all night.

  Skipper : I like a hard pillow.

  King Julien : Oh, I could be your pillow. My bottom is very soft and plushy, you know.

• Private : I'm sorry, Skipper.

  Skipper : Don't be sorry, Private. Be alert. You never know when our enemies will strike...

  [Suddenly, cages drop on the penguins] 

  Skipper : What the ham steak?

  Private : Um, Skipper, is this still part of the drill?

• Skipper : [as Kowalski goes to get his shot]  Be strong, Kowalski.

  Kowalski : [Gets his shot]  Good Galileo Galile-EEEEEEEEEE!

  Skipper : The man's a butcher.
