A line from King Koopa

Look at this place. Pathetic. It gets worse every day. The humans on the other side have a world full of resources. Ready for the taking. Imagine: an endless supply of food, clean air, water. And what are we stuck with? This... pithole, germs everywhere, fungus. For 65 million years, we've been exiled here after the meteorite stuck while mammals roamed freely in the other dimension! Ha! Well not for long!

King Koopa

My, my, someone got up on the wrong side of the nest this morning.

King Koopa
[during his mud bath]

Do you know what I love about mud? It's clean and it's dirty at the same time.

King Koopa

You may think of evolution as an upward process. Things evolve from primeval slime, up to single-celled organisms, up to intelligent life. De-evolution, of course, works the opposite way. Back to simpler forms. For instance, even our musical friend Toad can become a loyal child of the royal family: Goombas!

King Koopa

Muster the Goombas! Hand out the devolution guns! Prepare for destiny! Where's my pizza?

King Koopa

I've just found out that I have saboteurs in the tower! I still do not have the meteorite piece! I'm about to lose everything! We can talk about this later, if later even occurs!

King Koopa

I need the rock, and the Princess Daisy. And I'll finally be able to merge our world with theirs and get rid of the mammals!

King Koopa
[when de-evolving Toad]

See you later, alligator!

King Koopa
[after turning Scapelli into a chimpanzee]

Monkey!

Nobody touches President Koopa.

[rubbing his eyes in pain]

But he said he was one evil...

Koopa

One evil, egg sucking son of a snake. Did I lie?

Koopa

Now, where's the rock?

Iggy and Spike
[Iggy and Spike look at each other, then at Koopa]

Rock, sir?

Koopa

The meteorite piece that she wears around her neck, and I told you not to forget it!

Spike

That rock!

Iggy

I told you not to forget it!

Koopa

And I told you to remind him! Without that piece, the meteorite lays dormant. I'll not be able to merge the dimensions! Where is it?!

Iggy and Spike
[nervously]

The plumbers took it.

Koopa
[whispers]

Plumbers? [to Lena] Plumber alert!
