Is there anything else I need to know?
Yes. I can't fly, I pick my beak, and once in a while I pee in the birdbath! Happy?
You're right. It's not my fault. [She puts on her glasses and lashes out at Tulio] It's your fault...
...with your little bird talk and that whole "saves the species". Well you know what? SQUAWK, SQUAWKETY, SQUAWK, SQUAWK!!! [realizes what she said; gasps; covers her mouth] I'm sorry, I didn't mean to curse.
[she and Blu are running away from Nigel]
Aw, this is great. I'm chained to the only bird in the world who can't fly!
Actually, there are 40 species of flightless birds.
No, duck! [Blu notices a crate]
You see, who needs flying?
Birds! Birds need flying. Flying is... is freedom, and... and not having to rely on anyone. Don't you want that?
Hmm, I don't know. Sounds a little lonely.
Yeah, sounds great. It's not like we're just throwing ourselves off of a mountain… right?
Actually, that was pretty much my entire plan.
Don't worry, Blu. It's in your DNA, and if our featherless friends can do it, how hard can it be?
No, no, wait, wait! [screams] Mommy!
You 2 are coming with me.
In your little monkey dreams. [spits on the ground]
Yeah! [tries to spit too, but it sticks to his beak; wipes it off] That was meant for you.
Come on, can't we all just get along?
This isn't your fight, Big Nose!
S Spoonbill
[The marmosets laugh, until one bird grabs Mauro's arm and glares at him.]
You mess with my friends, you mess with me.
Yeah, little King Kong! [The marmosets and birds have an intense stare-off]
LG Little Green Bird
[panicky]
I don't know what's going on here! [flies off]
[battle cry]
Birds versus monkeys! [The birds charge in.]
Because I'm... I'm the one who took them.
I didn't mean to hurt anybody. I needed the money.
But, Fernando, I trusted you!
I know, but– [Before he can finish, Tipa and Armando enter]
[flying alongside the trolley, whispering to Blu]
Down here! Just tell her, "You have beautiful eyes."
That's good, great idea! [to Jewel; confidently] I have beautiful eyes.
Whoa, whoa, wait. Luiz... is a bulldog?
You got something against dogs?
I do when they're drooling on me.
It's a medical condition.
[As she is happily flying, Jewel notices Blu walking away sadly]
Hey, where you going? [Blu ignores her and keeps on walking] Blu? [Blu stops walking] Blu, what's wrong?
Nothing. Everything's perfect. You'll be off to the rain forest, I'll be back with Linda. Just like we planned.
[he and Pedro fly down towards them]
Hey, birds! Stop yapping and start flapping! Let's go!
I... I... I guess I thought maybe...
What, that you... you'd come to Minnesota? [Jewel just looks at him] Great, I guess I... I'll knit you a scarf.
No, that's not what I meant.
Look, Jewel, I can't spend my life walking around following you wherever you're going.
Hey, it's not my fault you can't fly.
[to Nico as they watch Blu and Jewel]
Awkward…
[to Blu and Jewel]
Okay, okay. You know what? It's just good. Just clear the air, just be completely honest with each other.
You want honesty? [to Rafael and Jewel] Fine, fine, I can be honest. I don't belong here. In fact, I never wanted to even come here in the first place. [stammers] And... and... and you know what? I hate samba! [Jewel and Rafael gasps, and Nico starts crying into Pedro's wing]
Hey! That's a little too far.
Make the mean bird take it back!
Yeah, I said it. Every song sounds exactly the same! [sings] "Tico, taco ya-ya-ya. Tico, taco ya-ya-ya!" [groans] I'm "tico-taco" out of here.
[angrily]
Fine! See you around, pet! [starts flying away from Blu]
No, no! Wait, wait, wait! Come back! You belong together. You are Juliet to his Romeo! Sure, they both die at the end, but you get my point! Oh, young love. Always so melodramatic. [to Nico and Pedro] All right, boys. Go after her. [starts flying to Blu] Blu, come back here, come on!
Nigel [catches Jewel as she is flying]
Going somewhere, pretty bird?
Oh, yeah! I was just on my way to claw your eyes out! [punches Nigel in the face; Nico and Pedro see Nigel get a hold of Jewel]
Nigel Temper, temper. Now come along, my dear. We're going to a parade, and everybody loves a parade! [flies away with Jewel]
[as he, along with Nico, watch Nigel take Jewel by force]
Hey, get back here! Ain't nobody mess with a friend of Pedro. I ain't havin' it! It's on! [starts punching the air]
What are you... on?! Did you see the talons on that guy?!
"Talons"? Maybe, it's on... next time. [he and Nico turn and fly away] RALFIEEEE!
Help! [cut on Blu walking to Linda, while Rafael starts following him]
Rafael, quit following me. You're going in the wrong direction. Isn't Carnaval that way?
I'm not going to Carnaval. No, I'm going home.
But I thought you loved Carnaval.
I do, but I love my family much more, and that's a choice I made with this. [points to Blu's heart] Not with this. [points to Blu's head (or brain)]
[Blu and Linda have just noticed each other at the carnival]
Blu! Blu! We found her!
She's on some, like, weird chicken float.
Boa noite, Rio! This is the final countdown to Carnaval! Let's samba.
S Sylvio
[hums]
Whoo! [humans] Ah! [humming] Huh?
Nigel [pained chirping]
S Sylvio
Aw. Come here, poor little birdie. Aw, It's okay. I got you. I got you. [muffled shouting]
[groans]
Excuse me. Please. I am trying to sleep.
[sarcastically]
Oh, I'm sorry, sleepyhead. I'm trying to escape. [grunting]
Escape? Why? The cage is awesome.
The cage... [laughs] Oh, what was I thinking? I wouldn't expect a pet to understand.
Pet? Did you just call me a pet? For the record, I am not a pet. I am a companion. And you know what? Do whatever you want, 'cause tomorrow morning, Linda will come for me and this whole nightmare will be over.
Incredible. You would rather be with a-a-a human than your own kind.
Well, that human has given me love and affection for the 15 years, whereas my own kind tried to strangle me after 15 seconds!
Yeah, well, because of them, I've lost everything. You can't trust them. [gasps]
Of course, you can trust humans. [he hears Jewel make a noise]
Jewel? Jewel. [He sees a boy hover over him] Oh. Hi, there. [yells] [A boy named fernando. He puts a bag over Blu's head]
A All
[laughter, festive chatter]
[Blu chants to himself with fear whilst trapped in a cage]
Okay. Okay. There's no place like home. There's no place like home. Oh, how I wish I was back in my own cage, with my mirror and my swing and my little bell. Oh, how I miss my little bell.
[She drops to the floor of the cage]
What? I don't need to play dead. I'm about to have a heart attack.
[sighs]
Fine. [moans] [gagging] [grunting]
[he fakes a fall and starts twitching]
Stop twitching.
Oh, come on. It's the twitching that sells it.
[First Words]
Come on in, kid.
[a boy places the cage holding Blu and Jewel on the table in front of Marcel] [First Words]
Well, what do you know? Good work, Fernando. You see, boys? What did I tell you about this one?
[First Words]
That you were going to pay him half as much as you said? [Marcel slaps Tipa in the face to shut him up] Ow!
No, you idiot. That he reminds me of myself when I was that age. Sweet, resourceful. Here you go, kid. [he hands the boy some money]
Hey. This is only half of what you promised me.
Ah, shut up, kid. [takes the cover off the cage to see Blu and Jewel looking dead] What the...? [he picks up Jewel] I thought I told you I needed these birds alive. Tell me, Fernando, does this look alive to you? Huh?
[Jewel bites Marcel's thumb and flies away] [squwaks]
AA Armando and Tipa
[grunts]
Nigel [First Words]
Hello, pretty bird. What's the matter? Cockatoo got your throat?
Nigel To be continued.
[after Jewel has been caught and placed back in the cage with Blu]
That was your plan-- to take off and leave me? Gee, thanks.
Well, why didn't you follow me?
Uh... [doesn't reply as he's too embarrassed to admit he doesn't fly yet]
The last blue macaws on Earth. [laughs] These are worth a fortune. Hey, Fernando. Hang these up in the other room.
SB Scaredy Bird
Hey, Birdy. Let me out. Let me out! Let me out of here!!!
NB Neurotic Bird
Who's a pretty bird? I'm a pretty bird. Pretty bird. I'm a pretty bird. [laughs] I'm a pretty bird.
B Bat
I was framed! They got the wrong guy!
Sorry, guys. Nothing personal. So, what's going to happen to them?
Don't worry. We're going to find good homes for them. Now, go home to your mama.
Goldfish? Aw. Can we keep him, boss?
No! [he shuts the door in Fernando's face]
[hearing Marcel talking to his men through the door]
So, Marcel, what's really going to happen to those birds?
Ugh! Plucked, stuffed, eaten. Who cares? All I know is we're going to be rich.
A Announcer
[speaking Portuguese]
Come on! The game's starting.
Yes, you were very clear. Tomorrow, or the deal is off. Of course I have both the macaws. Yes, I will deliver them myself. Goodbye. All right, you two. You load the truck tonight. First thing, in the morning, we bring those birds to the airport. You got it?
Oh, yeah, sure. Yeah, uh-huh.
Oh, yeah. All right. Heard you.
Oh. And one of you feed Nigel.
M Men
[gulp]
Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.
Uh-uh. Scissors cuts rock.
Oh, man. How come you always win? [nervous grunting] Nice birdie. [whimpering] Yeah, here you go.
Nigel [shrieks]
[sighs, grunts]
Ugh! Cannibal.
[trapped in their cage in a room full of the other trapped animals]
Okay, pull it together. The key is not to panic.
I wasn't talking to you; I was talking to me. But it's okay, because any minute now, Linda will find us.
Oh, great. And then she'll stick us behind another set of bars, right?
Look, pet, cages might work for you, but I don't want to belong to anyone.
Nigel [smacking lips]
Something seems to be lodged in my beak. Would you mind?
Nigel [laughing]
Nigel [jumping onto the cage Blu and Jewel are being held in]
Oh, I know I'm not a pretty birdie, but I used to be quite a looker. A star. Lights, camera, action.
["Pretty Bird" plays] [grunts]
Nigel Sweet nightmares. [laughing] [laughs wickedly and flies away]
Not cool, man! Scary, but not cool. Hey, are you okay?
[She starts throwing herself at the cage bars]
No, I am definitely not okay!
Whoa! Whoa, whoa, wait, wait. What are you doing?
Getting out of here. [grunts]
Are you going to help me or what?
Actually, all the survival guides say to sit and wait... Ow! ...and help will come.
[She throws herself more violently at the cage]
Whoa!
We are on our own, and if we just sit here, we're going to die!
M Men
[Sportscast plays in Portuguese]
No!
Nigel, get out of the way!
Nigel [squawks]
[as Jewel is continuing to throw herself around the cage]
Stop, stop. Why don't you just open the door? [he slides open the cage door with his beak]
[panting]
Are you kidding me?
What? It's just a standard flip slide bolt. Just rotate...
Come on! Let's fly! [screams] [Jewel flies out of the cage and grabs hold of Blu, but Blu grabs the cage with his beak] What are you doing?
[Marcel's men open the door to catch them in the act of escaping and Blu lets go of the cage] [gasps]
Nigel [shrieks]
[gasps]
Whoa! I can't fly!
[they both fall onto a washline and start sliding across it]
You couldn't tell me this before now?
It didn't matter before now! [muffled grunting]
JA Jewel and Blu
[they crash into a wall] [holler, grunt]
[after they crash land to the ground]
Is there anything else I need to know?
Yes. I can't fly, I pick my beak. And once in a while, I pee in the birdbath. Happy?
We got to get out of here!
Move! Come on, just move! Move!
JA Jewel and Blu
[gasping and grunting]
[as they're trying to get away from Marcel's men]
Wait. Wait. Listen to me. Flying may not be my thing, but walking is. Follow my lead. Inside leg, outside leg. [he starts leading the way walking]
Yeah. Yeah, okay. I got it.
Inside, outside, inside, outside!
JA Jewel and Blu
[panting]
Nigel [squawking]
[Jewel and Blu are running away from Nigel] [as they are running away from Marcel's men] [panting] [she and Blu are running away from Nigel]
Oh, this is great. I'm chained to the only bird in the world who can't fly.
Actually, there are about 40 species of flightless birds.
[notices a box]
Duck!
Blu No, ducks can fly.
[notices a crate]
No! Duck! [referring to them ducking under a cart they're about to encounter]
JA Jewel and Blu

Nigel [groaning]
Get out of here, you putrid poultry! [groans] Ahh! Ow! Ah!
Ah! Where? [clears throat] Oh!
[gasps]
Wow. I know where your birds are.
You found Blu? Are you sure? [gasps] It's his!
Let me see that. [babbling] [slurping] Hmm. You're right.
Come on. Let's go. I'll take you to him.
No, no, no. Linda, Linda, wait. We don't know this boy. We can't trust him.
I have to trust him. I don't have a choice.
Do you think. I am an idiot?
They were two birds, chained together, in a cage. HOW COULD YOU LOSE THEM!
They outsmarted us, boss. But-But don't worry. We'll get them back. I have a plan.
Oh, great. What are you going to do, wander the city calling, "Here, birdie, birdie. Here, birdie"?
Well, anything sounds dumb when you say it like that. [groans]
Okay. We have to get the birds to the airport tonight.
But it's Carnival. All the roads will be blocked by the parade.
And that's why I wanted to go this morning! Nigel! [Nigel flies over onto Marcel's shoulder]
Nigel [squawks]
This bird is ten times smarter than the two of you combined.
Yeah, well, if he's so smart, then why don't you put him in charge?
I am putting him in charge.
[to Tipa]
Stop suggesting things!
Go find them nigel. [Nigel flies out of the window in search of Blu and Jewel]
[Nigel flies out of the window in search of Blu and Jewel]
Hmm. If we can't get through the parade. We'll have to be in the parade.

Nigel Hello, boys. Seems like you've had a busy day.
[laughs]
What, this? [Referring to all the stuff they've stolen from tourists] This is just some stuff we found. Right, boys? Yeah.
Nigel [The crowd of monkeys all agree]
I'm not interested in your nicked knick-knacks. Your burgled baubles bore me. There are two blue macaws out there, and I need your multitude of eyes to help me find them.
Oh, yeah? What's in it for us? [chuckles]
Nigel Well, that's a fair question.
[He suddenly takes the lead marmoset and flies high into the sky] [screaming]
Nigel Let's discuss it.
[Nigel drops him] [screaming] [frantic hooting]
Nigel I certainly see your point.
Nigel [To the lead marmoset as he's falling down]
But what could I possibly do for you in return? Hmm?
[while falling]
Save me! SAVE ME!
Nigel Oh! Well, that's a thought, yeah. But is it enough? I don't want to feel like I'm cheating you.
Ahh! Help me! Help me! Help me! We'll do it! We'll do it! Save me, please. Save me!
Nigel [Just before he hits the ground, he stops as Nigel catches him]
All right, you've twisted my wing. Deal. Now then, anymore questions?
Nigel [The group of monkeys remain silent]
No? Good. You will spread out and you will find these macaws by the end of the day, or it's flying lessons for everyone! Go!
Nigel [The group of monkeys all scream with fright and run off]
Go do your monkey business.
What? But... the birds were here.
Yeah, sure they were, kid.
I swear! The birds were right here.
Because I'm-- I'm the one who took them.
I-I... I didn't mean to hurt anybody... I needed the money.
But Fernando, I trusted you!
I know, but-- [Before he can finish Tipa and Armando enter]
[chuckling]
Oh, man, that's good.
I just wanted to see if... you had any work for me.
Well, if you were here two hours ago, and you've could've helped us load the... Ow! What?
So, wh-why are you guys dressed for Carnival?
So no one will notice us when we smuggle these b... Ow!
[quietly]
We made a float.
Oh. Oh, a-a float. So, you guys are going to the parade. Can I come? I'm a great dancer.
Can he come? Come on, please? Three's better than two?
[groans]
Oh, fine. We got to hurry, though.
Whoa. I almost forget. I thought it was right here. [grunting] Ah, there it is. Huh. Got it. [chuckles] Let's go.
Can he ride on the plane with us, too? Ow!
No. We can't let them get on that plane.
You can drive a motorcycle, right?
LA Linda and Tulio
[gasps]
Ow... No, I can't... drive a motorcycle. [distorted yelling]
Whoa! It's just like riding a snowmobile! [chuckles]
Nigel What happened?
LM Lead Marmoset
[whimpers]
Papa?
Nigel What happened?!
Nigel Ha!
[squeaky]
Oh, no, let me go!
Nigel [grabs hold of a tiny green bird]
Stop your chirping and talk to me!
No! No! No! I don't know anything! Help!
Nigel Mmm... when I bite down on your head, will it go pop? Or will it go crack? [he squeezes hard on the little green birds head] Where are the cerulean birds? That means blue, by the way.
[gasps]
They escaped! Went to Luiz.
Nigel Anything else?
(Smiles)
They said you were very nice.
Nigel Hmm, did they? Well, liar.
Nigel [Nigel throws the little green bird and it hits the lead marmoset in the head]
Never send a monkey to do a bird's job. [squawks]
Come on, come on, come on. Where are these guys? [laughs]Yes! Nice! Very nice.
[calls]
Marcel! Yoo-hoo! Marcel! [clucking like a chicken]
We're a chicken! Cluck, cluck! [chuckling, laughing](He dresses up as egg) Come on, Fernando, dance! [clucking]
Excuse me. Um... [clears throat] Coming through. Watch your feet.

Nigel One down, and one to go.
You'll never find him. He's already gone.
Nigel Oh, I don't need to find him. He'll find you.
Ha-ha! This is the spit! [as they arrive at carnival to find Jewel] Yeah, baby! Now I can get my freak on!

She's on some, like, weird chicken float.
Wait! Blu! Where are you going?
SS Samba School Director
[shouts in Portuguese]
I saw Blu! He's riding on a bulldog!
There they are, that's the float!
Whoo! That float is a crime in itself! Oh!
[grunts] [in the smugglers' float] [quietly]
Hey, Jewel?
I'm gonna let you out of here.
No, no. You can't be here. You have to go. Nigel is...
Nigel [Suddenly Nigel attacks Blu and throws him in a cage]
Hello, pretty bird. So kind of you to join our little soiree.
Oh, come on. You really think I came alone? I got three of the roughest, meanest, craziest birds in all of Rio right behind me.
Woo-hoo! You hear that, guys?
[Blu sees that Nigel has replaced Rafael, Nico, & Pedro in a cage nearby]
We're saved! That's right! That's right. That's right.
Uh... I think he means us.
Nigel [sighs]
Ah, love. It's such a powerful and stupid thing.
[Chuckles]
Yes! Well done Nigel.
Oh! Oh! Out of the way! Sorry. Wait! Wait!
Whoo-hoo! We actually made it! Hey, Marcel! Can we do this again next year? Please? Please? Could I drive next year, too?
Wait! Come back! [panting] Get in!
[on top of a carnival float]
I don't know how I got up here, but I ain't never comin' down! Ah-ah! Woo-hoo! [starts dancing]
Sorry, Eva, I'm not gonna be home for dinner.
[Rafael, Pedro and Nico soon notice the strap getting hooked onto the fire extinguisher] [grunts]
I'm gonna pop this cage open like a soda can. [grunting as he hits the side of the cage four times to get the fire extinguisher to fall to the ground, popping it open]
Hurry. We gotta help the others.

Ow!
Nigel Oh, pity. Now we have two useless, birds. [laughing]
