Yule log engaged.

All right, boys! Stand by for eggnog!

Aye aye, Skipper!

Rico

EGGNOG!

Private?

I'll pass, thank you.

Skipper and Kowalski
[in unison]

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!

Well done, Rico! This guy can really hold his nog.

21:10 hours, boys! Engage cranberries! [Rico is playing the "Knife game" at the table] Rico! Not at the table. [noticing a problem] Hold on a second! Something's missing!

Cranberries: check! Eggnog: check!

Give me a headcount.

[grabs abacus]

We have three heads, sir!

Where's the private?!

Unknown, sir! It would appear that he's [grabs milk carton] missing!

[Kowalski shows milk carton with a big 'missing' advert for the private]

Missing? Hoover Dam! Wait, there he is. He just went to bed. [pulls off sheets, revealing a bowling pin underneath] What the...?! [slapping the pin] What have you done with Private? Talk, Mister!

Skipper! Over here!

[to pin]

I'll deal with you later.

Oh, no. He must be out there all by himself.

He's one of us, men. You all know the Penguin Credo.

Never bathe in hot oil and Bisquick?

No. [Rico speaks Japanese gibberish] No, that's the Walrus Credo. It's "Never swim alone." Private's out there all by himself, and we never leave one of our own.

Kowalski and Rico

Oh, yeah.

Now let's go.

Oh, that's perfect! Just the thing for a sad polar bear.

He's in trouble.

Rico
[starts to light a stick of dynamite]

Kaboom!

Lay her down, soldier. We're in observation mode.

Shitake mushrooms! No more Mr Cute and Cuddly!

Rico

Kaboom, kaboom, kaboom!

Rico! Enough with the dynamite, already.

Rico
[sighs disappointedly]

Aaah.

Rico
[pulls out a stick of dynamite and a match]

Kaboom?

Yes, Rico. Kaboom.

[Rico blows up the area surrounding the apartment door, causing the door itself to fall from the lack of support and giving the Penguins an escape route]

Come on, boys.

Nana

What is all this? Mr. Chew, this is all your fault! Bad dog! You are on a big time out!

Thanks for rescuing me, Skipper.

Think nothing of it, young Private. It's the least we could do. You remember the penguin credo.

What does deep-frying in Bisquick have to do with any of this?

Not that one, the other one! "Never swim alone". Alone! On Christmas! Don't you get it? Come on people, do I have to explain this to everybody? [Rico nods]
