View Quote [The team visits Mr. Tinkles in his cell, in a scene parodying Hannibal Lecter in "The Silence of the Lambs"]
Butch: Mr. Tinkles. We need the inside of your twisted mind to locate Kitty Galore. If you were to build a doomsday device--
Mr. Tinkles: [to Cat] You'll never find love, you know. I can tell by the way you're sitting, so apart from the others. They wouldn't invite any ordinary cat, would they? No! [gasps] You're an agent! With M.E.O.W.S.! Spying on your own brothers and sisters? Naughty little girl. But that takes a very special kind of feline. Someone dedicated, driven and very angry. But at whom? Daddy? Who's your daddy, Catherine?! [laughs evilly]
Butch: That's enough!
Mr. Tinkles: Butch! You look old. And fat. And after all these years, still only a field agent?
Diggs: Listen here, you freaky cat!
Mr. Tinkles: What?
Diggs: We're here to talk about Kitty Galore.
Mr. Tinkles: Who the heck are you? That bulge under your left ear - you're implanted with an RFID microchip. I'm guessing, police work. My, my, so young to be dismissed from the force. Tell me, officer, do you hate me? Do you want to chew me up and spit me out, AS HAS BEEN DONE TO YOU, IN RELATIONSHIP AFTER RELATIONSHIP?!

Paul: I am afraid I don't understand what you are saying, sir.
Colonel Oliver: Oh, come on, Paul, you're the smartest man here. You got 'em all eating out of your hands. You could own this frigging hotel, except for one thing. You're black. You're not even a ****. You're an African. They're not going to stay, Paul. They're not going to stop this slaughter.
