Is the game afoot? [Calico haltingly confirms] WHY IS THE GAME AFOOT?!

Mr. Tinkles

When I rule the earth, you will be the first on my list.

Mr. Tinkles

The ninjas failed, and do I need to remind you that failiure is unacceptable?!

Mr. Tinkles

'Dark Coud'? Is that what I'm calling my plan, 'Dark Cloud'?

Mr. Tinkles
[various fuzzy images of him on a video recording]

Hello? Hello? Is this on? Closer, closer! Turn the camera over! Where'd you come from? And about time too! Hello, my puny-minded, dog-faced-- what? Yes, it's on. Because I can see the red light blinking. Oh, start over.

Mr. Tinkles

Meow-meow-meow-meow-meow! [sung sarcastically over the telephone] How many dogs does it take to overthrow mankind? Just one stupid puppy! Whoo ha ha ha ha!

Mr. Tinkles

I want you to stay here.

Why?

Mr. Tinkles

Because I hate you.

Mr. Brody
[on tape]

Hi. Uh, doctor, the cure for dog allergies? Success, done!

Doctor
[sneezes]

Fantastic. Send it to me tomorrow, and I'll have our guys verify it.

Mr. Brody

I will. I'll send it, [Doctor sneezes] first thing in the morning. God bless you.

Mr. Tinkles
[stops the tape]

This is unacceptable! If we do not act immediately, that work will be out of my reach forever! You know what that means?

[confused]

Huh? What? Oh. Who, me?

Mr. Tinkles
[annoyed]

Were you not paying attention?

Not really. Are you mad?

Mr. Tinkles

YES! I AM MAD!

[ducks from Mr. Tinkles' paw]

Whoa!
Mr. Tinkles You little bug of an imbecile!

Mr. Tinkles

As for you, Brody herd, I have a very, very, special...[Reaches into a box on the desk, and pulls out cork gun] gift! [angrily] WHAT?!

Scott

Whoa!

Mr. Tinkles

I thought I told you to buy a real gun!

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

Mr. Tinkles

Ohh! What possible use could I have for this?! [Throws the cork gun, firing the cork, breaking things and setting the room on fire] Hey. I'm so clever. [Starts to leave] You know this is? Yeah, this is just plain fun, yeah. [to Calico] I want you to stay here.

Why?

Mr. Tinkles

Because I hate you. [Closes the door, leaving Calico locked inside]

[Begins pawing desperately at the door]

No! NO! NOOO! HELP! NO! LET ME OUT!

Mr. Tinkles
[over the phone, in a taunting "nyah nyah" sing-song]

Meow-meow-me-meow-meow! How many dogs does it take to overthrow mankind? Just one stupid puppy.

Lou

Where is my family?!

Mr. Tinkles

Oh, they're alive... for now. But it won't matter. You see, I've--

Mr. Tinkles
[The limousine Tinkles is riding in swerves, sending him sliding and slamming into the side]

THIS ISN'T NASCAR, YOU IDIOT! [clears throat] I have seized the professor's formula, and in a mere hour I will reverse it, giving me the power to make all humans allergic to dogs!

What?!

Mr. Tinkles
[The limousine swerves again, sending Tinkles sliding into the other side]

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GLOAT GLEEFULLY WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING LIKE A CHIMPANZEE?!? I MEAN, REALLY! [clears throat again] Now I will make all of humanity violently allergic to your wretched kind, and when you are all hated and despised by those you protect, you will be CAST OUT, leaving me to lead all of cat-kind in a glorious revolution to conquer the world! [laughs evilly]

Lou

What will we do?

"We"? You just handed the world back to the cats and doomed the human race forever! There's nothing left to do.

Ivy
[approaches wearing high-tech equipment]

You always give up too easily, Butch.

Is that what I think it is?

Lou

What, Butch?

Ivy

Yep, it's the Cat Tracker 2000.

Mr. Tinkles
[A beacon is shown to be planted on the limousine]

Those fleabags must be running for the hills! [chuckles]

Yeah, I... yeah, that's what I was thinking.

Sophie
[Sophie is taking Mr. Tinkles home after his failed attempt to take over the world.]

That's right, Mr. Tinkles, you have been a very bad kitty! I'm just going to have to teach you how to behave. Now, you'll just have to live with me... [Entering the house...] ...and my sisters!

Mr. Tinkles
[All of Sophie's sisters, who are also all maids, excitedly scream and run to the door to see Mr. Tinkles. The movie ends with them dressing him up in ridiculous little outfits, much to his humiliation.] [Closing line]

This can't be happening.
