Earl Devereaux
[as a tear rolls down his cheek]

It's enough to make a grown man cry.

Earl Devereaux

And that's okay. You go right ahead, tear.

Earl Devereaux

Coffee?! I'm not a barista! [rips his uniform into his police uniform] I'm a police-sta! [growing his beard and puts on his cap] Let's ride!

Earl Devereaux
[to Flint]

Wait your turn, fancy pants! [happier] Flint Lockwood and Sam Sparks! [hugs them] And Steve, too! [kisses him]

[squeezes into Flint's smaller clothes]

Thanks for lending me these skinny jeans, Flint.

Those aren't skinny jeans.

Manny

Nope.

My feet are turning purple. Is that bad?

Flint
[Flint and his friends are walking in the Breakfast Bog, getting close to the FLDSMDFR.]

Almost there. The FLDSMDFR should be across this syrup bog.

[awed]

This is syrup? Syrup is my favorite. [smacks a mosquitoast] Darn mosquitoasts!

Don’t worry, man baby. They, like all the other abominable food monsters, will soon be no more.

Sam

Wait, Flint! What if we’re making... a big mistake?

Flint

Mistake?

Sam

About shutting off the FLDSMDFR. Some of these creatures, they’re incredible!

Incredibly dangerous! We were just attacked by a giant Tacodile!

Flint

He’s right, Sam. I mean, we were almost eaten by a cheese spider.

Sam

It doesn’t mean we have to destroy all of them. Some of the food’s actually been... friendly.

Manny

It is true. The dessert creatures are especially sweet.

Flint

Okay. Maybe we– [Barb smacks him] Argh!

Barb

Mosquitoast! Was gonna bite you.

See? Even the tiniest creatures are attacking us.

Sam

The only reason they're biting is because of the drop of barometric pressure. Bugs do that before a storm. [refers to the storm clouds] And by the look of those nimbostratus clouds–

Miss Sparks, we are not talking about the weather. [hits Flint in the tracking helmet] We are talking about food here. Dangerous food that does not have human emotion.

Flint
[A mosquitoast landed on his nose and Barb flicks it out]

Ow!

Food that are not friendly! [slaps Flint in the face and holds his helmet] FOOD THAT CANNOT LOVE!! [slaps Flint again and pinched his lips]

Sam

Flint, we should be studying the food animals, not killing them. What if he's wrong?

[beat] [to Flint]

The choice is yours, son - live up to your full potential or walk away and let the food monsters destroy Lady Liberty.

Flint

Sam, finding that FLDSMDFR and saving the world, that's what matters.

Sam
[shocked and hurt]

Really? Our opinion doesn't matter?

Flint

Of course, it does! Yes! Yes, it matters, but... just... just not right now.

Uh, oh!

Wrong answer!

Toast!

Sam
[angry]

Yeah!? [takes the drawn vest sticky note off the drawing of Sparkswood] Well, I guess this doesn't matter, either, young Lockwood. [pinned the sticky note on Flint’s shirt] I’ll just... see you back on the boat. [drops the drawing on the syrup and storms off... well, sort of]

Flint

Wait, Sam! Wait, please! No! No. Sam, come back! Come back, Sam, no! No, Sam, Sam, Sam! Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam…!! [to Earl] Hey, Earl, would you talk to her?

[sternly]

You bet I will. Hey, Sam, wait for me! [follows Sam]

Manny

Adios, sayonara. Goodbye, Señor Lockwood. [leaves]

[sadly]

Bye, Flint. [leaves as well]

Steve! [hops onto Manny]

Flint

Et tu, Steve? [his friends leave him on his own with Chester and Barb] What just happened? [picks up the drawing from the syrup]

You've made the right choice, son. [to his sentinels] Sentinels, keep them... safe. [grins as he walks off with Flint and Barb while the sentinels march after the gang]

Okay, Steve. If me and you put our two brilliant minds together, we will get out of here.

Brent, do you ever get the feeling that maybe Steve Lockwood is just a monkey?

[covers Steve's ears]

Why would you say that about him, Earl? Why would you ever say that?!

Barb

Of course he's just a monkey. How stupid are you people? No one should ever put any trust in a monkey.

Sam

Chester thinks you're a monkey.

Barb

Well, I'm an ape. Chester knows that.

Sam

But he calls you a monkey.

Ohh…!

Manny

It is true, he does.

Barb

He's just joking around. Chester's my best friend.

Sam

If Chester was really your friend, would he still call you a monkey?
