Scenes with Julien
19 scenesI'm not smiling, it's gas.
They are so cute from a reasonable distance.
We've been ratted out, boys!
All we have to do is wait until they are deep in their sleep. [long pause] HOW LONG IS THIS GOING TO TAKE?!
Shame on you, Maurice! Can you not see that you have insulted the freak?
See you later, crocodile! Maurice, my arm is tired. Wave it for me. Faster, you naughty little monkey!
King Julien, what are they? WHAT ARE THEY?!
I say!
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.
Nonsense, Maurice! Come on everybody! Let's go and meet the panzies!
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--
All hail the New York Giants!
All right, enough is enough. I say we just ask these BOZOS where the people are!
Excuse me? We bozos have the people, of course!
You do? That's good to know.
Hey! The bozos have the people!
They're up there.
Don't you love the people? Not a very lively bunch though.
Oh. So, do you have any... LIVE people?
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?
Who wipes? Ha ha!
I am going to give you this lovely parting gift.
Oh no, really. I can't take your crown.
That's okay, I've got a better one! It's got a gecko on it! Look at him shake! Go Stevie, go!
We thank you with enormous gratitude for scaring away the Fossa.
The whossa?
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!
Yes, yes! We get it--
You HATE them compared to how much I like them--
QUIET, YOU'RE SO ANNOYING!
I like them! I like them! Before I even met them I liked them!
Yes, yes! We get it--
You HATE them compared to how much I like them--
Oh, shut up! You're so annoying!
Now, for as long as we can remember, we have been attacked, and eaten, by the dreaded fossa.
The fossa! The fossa are attacking! [screams and hurls himself out a window; General panic ensues]
It's a cookbook! It's a cookbook!
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.
Now, everybody, we all have great curiosity about our guests, the New York Giants. Yes, Willie?
I like them.
I like them. I like them! I liked them first! Before I even met them, I liked them!
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…
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.
THE FOSSA! THE FOSSA ARE ATTACKING!! [screams] AAHHH!!
It's a cookbook! IT'S A COOKBOOK!!!!!
All right! Please. Please, Maurice.
Shh! Quiet!! Come on, y'all. They're not attacking us this very instant.
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!
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.]
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!
AHH!!!
AAHHHH!!!!
Take it easy.
What is this?
Who built a forest?
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?
No, not who-ah, ascar.
It's just like my mural back at the zoo.
Oh, no, fella, that is the real deal right there.
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.
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.
I'M THE CAT!!
Surprise!
Yahhh!!
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!
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.
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.
King?
Yeah! You should see his act. Come on, Alex. Why don't you show him some of your act?
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.
Hai. [the tail drops on his head; the knife takes a sushi fish]
Open that hatch.
Aah…
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?
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.
To Alex!
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.
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.
That's OK, I've got a bigger crown! It's got a gecko on it! Look at him shake! Go, Stevie, go!
