King Julien
[watching Gloria cuddle Mort]

They are just a bunch of panzies.

I don't know, Julien. [referring to Alex] There's something about that guy with the crazy hair-do that I find suspicious.

King Julien

Nonsense, Maurice! Come on everybody! Let's go and meet the panzies!

[to Alex]

Oh my, what big teeth you have. MAN!

Julien

Shame on you, Maurice! Can you not see that you have insulted the freak? [to Alex] You must tell me, who the heck are you?

I'm Alex. THE Alex. And this is Melman, Marty and Gloria.

And where exactly are you giants from, Hmm?

We're from New York, and--

Julien

All hail the New York Giants!

Lemurs
(cheering)

NEW YORK GIANTS!!!

[to Marty, Melman and Gloria]

All right, enough is enough. I say we just ask these BOZOS where the people are!

Julien

Excuse me? We bozos have the people, of course!

You do? That's good to know.

Hey! The bozos have the people!

Julien

They're up there.

Julien
[points to some human skeletons hanging from parachutes snagged on the branches of a large tree]

Don't you love the people? Not a very lively bunch though.

Oh. So, do you have any... LIVE people?

Julien

Uh, no. Only dead ones.

Man, if we had a lot of live people, it wouldn't be called the wild, would it?

The wild?!

Hold on a second there, fuzzbucket. You mean the live-in-a-mud-hut, wipe-yourself-with-a-leaf type wild?

Julien

Who wipes? Ha ha!

Julien
[presents Alex with his crown]

I am going to give you this lovely parting gift.

Oh no, really. I can't take your crown.

Julien

That's okay, I've got a better one! It's got a gecko on it! Look at him shake! Go Stevie, go!

Julien

We thank you with enormous gratitude for scaring away the Fossa.

The whossa?

Julien

The Fossa. They're alway annoying us by trespassing, interrupting our parties, and ripping our limbs off--

Yeah, sounds great.

I like them! I like them! Before I even met them I liked them!

Julien

Yes, yes! We get it--

You HATE them compared to how much I like them--

Julien

QUIET, YOU'RE SO ANNOYING!

[pause] [flattered]

Hee-hee!

I like them! I like them! Before I even met them I liked them!

Julien

Yes, yes! We get it--

You HATE them compared to how much I like them--

Julien

Oh, shut up! You're so annoying!

[Pause] [flattered]

Hee-hee!

Julien

Now, for as long as we can remember, we have been attacked, and eaten, by the dreaded fossa.

Lemur 1

The fossa! The fossa are attacking! [screams and hurls himself out a window; General panic ensues]

Lemur 2
[holds up a book titled "To Serve Lemur"]

It's a cookbook! It's a cookbook!

[Meanwhile in the jungle, the lemurs have gathered at an old airplane for a meeting.]

Everybody, calm down. Come on. Into your chairs. Yes. Everybody, please, calm down. Let go of his tail. Separate those two, would you, please? You over here, and you, over there. Everybody, Shh... Calm down, people, OK? Ugh. Now, presenting your royal highness, the illustrious blah, blah, blah. You know, et cetera, et cetera. Hooray. Let's go.

King Julien

Now, everybody, we all have great curiosity about our guests, the New York Giants. Yes, Willie?

Willie the lemur

I like them.

I like them. I like them! I liked them first! Before I even met them, I liked them!

King Julien

Yes, yes. Yes! We get it…

When I saw them, I liked them right away. You hate them compared to how much I like them…

Julien

Oh, shut up! You're so annoying!! [Pauses out of the park and Mort chuckles] Now, for as long as we can remember, we have been attacked and eaten by the dreaded fossa.

Lemur

THE FOSSA! THE FOSSA ARE ATTACKING!! [screams] AAHHH!!

Lemur 2
[Everyone all screamed and panic, the one of the lemurs jumps out the old airplane and the glass breaks apart.] [holds up a book titled "To Serve Lemur"]

It's a cookbook! IT'S A COOKBOOK!!!!!

Julien

All right! Please. Please, Maurice.

Shh! Quiet!! Come on, y'all. They're not attacking us this very instant.

King Julien
[All lemurs sigh in relief as Julien continues to prepare his plan that will succeed]

So, my genius plan is this: We will make the New York Giants our friends and keep them close. Then, with Mr. Alex protecting us, we will be safe and never have to worry about the dreaded fossa ever again! [Everyone all agrees.] I thought of that! I thought of that! Yes! Me! I did.

Hold on, hold on, everybody. Hold on. I'm just thinking now. I mean, does anyone wonder why the fossa were so scared of Mr. Alex? I mean, maybe we should be scared too. What if Mr. Alex is even worse than the fossa?! [Lemurs gasp in shock] I'm telling you, that dude just gives me the heebiedabajeebies!

King Julien

Maurice, you did not raise your hand. Therefore, your heinous comment will be stricken from the record. [Chameleon uses the typewriter] Does anyone else have the heebie-jeebies? No? Good. So shut up. When the New York Giants wake up, we will make sure that they wake up in paradise. [Laughing] Now, who would like a cookie?
[Lemurs cheer.]

King Julien
[Cut to black of the next morning]

Wake up, Mr. Alex. Wake up, Mr. Alex. Rise and shining. Wakey-waking, Mr. Alex! [Loudly] WAKE UP!!!! ALEX!!!!! [Alex muffled gasp] You suck your thumb?

AHH!

Everyone (sans Alex)

AHH!!!

Everyone

AAHHHH!!!!

[Shocked, the zoo animals get up.]

Where are we? What the heck is going on?

King Julien

Take it easy.

What is this?

Who built a forest?

King Julien

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Don't be alarmed, giant freaks! While you were asleep, we simply took you to our little corner of heaven. Welcome to Madagascar.

Mada-who-ah?!

What?

King Julien

No, not who-ah, ascar.

[The zoo animals stare from the open view of Madagascar.]

Marty. It's...

It's just like my mural back at the zoo.

Oh, no, fella, that is the real deal right there.

King Julien

Look at that, that's not a bad view.

I mean, that's the thing that you were always looking at, but it's actually there. I mean, that's like the real version of your...

Hey, how about once around the park? Let's get our blood pumping, get those lungs breathing all this fresh air! Who's with me?!

Ah, naw. I really, I don't think I could... You're it!

Hey! Want to play around? Ho! Hey!

Ha-ha! Oof!

Got you there! Ha-ha!

Come here! Ha-ha-ha!

You're it.

[Chuckles, while riding on Marty's back]

Hey, hey, hey!

Hey, stop that! Hey, you’re crazy!

OK, Marty, I'm it. I'm it. I'm it. You win. [Groans in exhaustion]

Come on, Alex, get in the groove.

I haven't eaten in two days. My blood sugar's real low. I just don't have the energy.

I don't think that's your problem. First of all, that's not how you run in the wild. Let's go, man. Put the rubber to the road! You just have to let out that inner lion. Now, who's the cat?

Marty, I really don't...

You are; that's who. Come on! Here we go! That's it. Now let's build up some steam!

Alright.
Marty You the cat.

Who's the cat?

You the cat.

[Marty went up ahead whooping as Alex kept repeating "Who's the cat?" over and over again. His eyes lean close to Marty, and his eyes dilate.]

I'M THE CAT!!

[Marty sprints through the gorgeous landscape, elation on his face. He's running just like he did in his fantasy back at the zoo. Behind him, Alex catches up and zooms past Marty with blazing speed.]

Surprise!

Yahhh!!

[Marty crashes to Alex until they both tumble to a stop. Alex pops to his feet adrenaline surging.]

Hoo! You're it! You're it! Can't juke the cat. Cat's too quick! Whoo! Hoo-ha! Ooh, yeah! Hoo-ha! I feel like a mile-high pastrami on rye on the fly from the deli in the sky! ROWW! Let's go wild!

Now you're talking!

[Alex and Marty are now doing the Tarzan Yell as they enter the wild party.]

Whoo! Man! I feel... [laughing] different! Noogie, noogie, noogie. Noogie, noogie, noogie! Whoo! Kind of charged up or something. Hoo!

Ah, Marty, Marty, Marty! Like you said, baby.

It's Crack-a-lacking. Ain't that right, Melman? Whoo!

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm in heaven.

King Julien

You see, Maurice, Alex is now our friend and the fossas are nowhere to be seen. It could be said that my plan is working in a very good working kind of way.

Yeah!

Alex. You got to try some of this.

[Alex spits the pineapple to King Julien]

I feel good. Feel like a king again!

King Julien
[Throws the pineapple to Maurice]

King?

Yeah! You should see his act. Come on, Alex. Why don't you show him some of your act?

[Chuckles]

Oh. No, I really don't think I could... OK.

Close those eyes.

Why do I have to close my eyes?

Do it.

Yeah. They're closed.

Tighter.

Yes, sir.

No peeking.

Alright. They're closed.

Rico.

[takes the fish; Does a karate chop with two knives; carves; slaps the bottom of the fish turns into 12 sushi fish and drops]

Hai. [the tail drops on his head; the knife takes a sushi fish]

Open that hatch.

Aah…

[the sushi fish puts inside Alex's mouth]

Fire in the hole. [closes the Alex's mouth and chews] Now chew. Chew like you mean it! Savor it.

Mmm… Mmm.

And?

Well?

Pretty good, right?

King Julien

There's always Plan B. [Mort laughs]

Mmm… Mmm. This is better than steak. I love it! I love it!

The kitty loves the fishy. [Kowalski and Private got a high-5 as everyone cheers]

Well, I propose a toast. Now, he may be a pain in the butt at times... And trust me, I know. But this cat proved to me without a doubt that his heart is bigger than his stomach. To Alex.

Everyone

To Alex!

King Julien
[Everyone spits out their seawater after drinking it]

Enough! Stop it!

Well, what do you guys think? Should we head back to New York?

I don't know, Marty. I mean, this is your dream. You sure you want to leave?

I don't care where we are. As long as we're together, it doesn't matter to me.

Well, in that case... [turns to Rico] Yo. Rico. I'll take 300 orders to go!

Hai.

King Julien

Yes, yes. But before you leave, I have an announcement to make. So shut up, everyone, please. Thank you. After much deep and profound brain things inside my head, I have decided to thank you for bringing peace to our home. [presents Alex with his crown] And to make you feel good, I'm gonna give you this lovely parting gift.

Oh, no, really. I can't take your crown.

King Julien

That's OK, I've got a bigger crown! It's got a gecko on it! Look at him shake! Go, Stevie, go!
