3 quotes Cody Maverick Cody Maverick You better start packing your bags, Tank, 'cause by tomorrow, I'm gonna be a part of the Hang 5. Traveling the world, doing the most radical stuff. And you'll just go back to being a nobody from Nowhere Island, and you'll never see me again.
Cody Maverick [reads an inscription]
"Here lies the great hero of Slaughter Island, the bravest and most honored surfer of all. He gave up his chance at fame and fortune, and he chose to stay with his people to protect them from the treacherous waters of the Trenches by performing the sacred rites of Ride The Lightning.". RTL! [looks back and sees lightning] Oh no! I gotta tell Lani and Joe! [runs off to warn his friends]

We'll be there in four, three, two... [a lobster grabs his head] Oh! Oh!
This is the moment we've been waiting for!
Whoa, this is amazing!
Come on, guys. We've got a lot of ground to cover. Remember what we talked about last night. After all, this journey isn't just about getting to the Trenches. One of you will be replacing me on the Hang 5. Those are some big shoes to fill, so show me you've got big feet. [raises his foot and wiggles his toes]
****-a-doodle-dude!
Alright, here's how this works. Don't panic, work as a team, and keep an eye out on each other. And we'll all make it through this.
Here we go, Tank. This is your last test. Mr. McMahon thinks you're a yellow-bellied coward.
But I told him...
What?
You were the real deal.
Don't let me down, Tank. Or we'll all die.
Do not...
I repeat, do not go rogue out there. We're all counting on each other. Got it?
Cody Maverick [from outtakes]
Undertaker, quick, give me a boost!
Cody Maverick [Undertaker throws him at a palm tree]
Agh!
[The coconuts from the tree fall on him]
[opens a chest]
What I hold here is the key that will unlock one of the greatest mysteries of our time.
Why everything seems to taste like me?
No. This is the map to the most legendary surfing spot on the planet. [drumroll] The Trenches!
Cody I thought that the Trenches were just, like, made up...to scare little kids.
Oh, it's real, alright. And everything you hear about it is true.
It's hidden somewhere on Slaughter Island, the most dangerous and mysterious place on the planet.
Jagged rocks, huge cliffs.
It's a surfer's graveyard.
And we're going to ride it! RTL! Am I right, guys?
Heck yeah! RTL!
Hang 5
RTL!
Cody Hey Joe, what does RTL mean?
I don't know, man. Rumbly tummy...ooh, something? [farts] Oh, I shouldn't have eaten all those escargogos.
Surfing the Trenches will be the greatest ride of my life. [frowns] And my last.
Because you're gonna die?!
No! Because I'm retiring.
Hang 5
[surprised]
WHAT?!
Boss, you can't be serious!
Hey, I'm not getting any younger. It's time for me to settle down.
What does that mean? We're gonna be the Hang 4 from now on?
Maybe not. Big Z always said Pen Gu breeds great surfers. I think it's time we add a new member.
Have somebody in mind, boss?
[laughs]
I'm not gonna give away the surprise just yet. But I think I might've found someone very special. [Cody looks back and smiles, assuming he'll be part of the Hang 5]
[Cody wakes up uncomfortably, Lani follows and finds him sitting on a log] [sits next to Cody]
Can't sleep?
Cody Yeah, I think I need a moment to calm down from all the excitement. My heart's jumping out of my chest.
Yeah, I can imagnine. This has been some day. Must be a pretty big deal to you.
Cody This is my dream, Lani. I can't stop thinking about it. I don't think I blinked once all day. I didn't wanna miss a second. [he and Lani look up] Mr. McMahon thinks you're amazing. He's totally gonna pick you.
Mm, I dunno. I miss Pen Gu. We've been gone for so long. I can't wait to tell our friends back home about all of this.
Cody [laughs]
Yeah, they'll never believe it. I wish every day was like this. I feel like I'm finally living the life I always wanted to, y'know? I wish this feeling could last forever.
Cody Yeah, in a minute. Let's soak this in a while longer. [falls asleep on Lani, who also falls asleep]
Cody [lands his glider]
Alright!!! Who's awesome? I'm awesome! [sees the team surrounding Chicken Joe] Whoa, what's going on, everyone? [gasps]
Cody [confused]
W-Where's your board?
You destroyed it when you bumped Tank into Joe.
Cody [shocked]
What?! [turns to Chicken Joe] Joe, man, I'm so sorry. I-I didn't mean to...
"Sorry" doesn't cut it, Cody. What the heck were you thinking?
Yeah, man, why'd I ever do to you? All these years of friendship, and he still... [sniff] He still keeps these-these walls up, and...I don't know how to break 'em down. [fakes crying] I just don't know what to think anymore.
Cody [scoffs in annoyance]
Are you kidding me, dude? [points at Tank] This guy's been sabotaging me since day 1!
And you think that makes it okay?
Cody Well, I, yeah. I-I was just tryna win, y'know? So I could prove I can be one of you.
Putting your friends in danger only proves that you're nothing like us.
The Hang 5 is a family.
We have each other's back, no matter what.
Cody Lani, please tell 'em I didn't mean for this to happen. Alright? You know me!
[as she carries Chicken Joe on her shoulder]
Yeah, Cody, I do. And that's why I'm just so disappointed in you right now.
[the rest of the team walk away] [picks up his board]
And you were doing so well too. [walks away]
Cody Maverick [walks on sand]
Dude, what is this?
[Cody and JC are waxing the surfboards, Cody is in a rage from Tank cutting him off]
Dude, Cody, we're just tryna wax the boards, not set 'em on fire. You're gonna burn a hole in that thing.
Cody Ugh! Tank cheated. He knocked me off my board. That's why we lost.
Yeah? I didn't see anything. You sure?
Cody He totally rubbed it in my face. He practically admitted to it!
That's messed up, man. But you know what? Maybe let it go. It's not worth getting all bent out o' shape about. We had an awesome day, right? Were those dunes gnarly or what?
Cody Yeah, that was pretty epic. And I get to ride with you guys! It still feels pretty surreal. I mean, like, I can't believe this is actually my life right now, y'know? I just... I just wish that I hadn't let you down.
Let me down? What are you talking about? Look, man, there are plenty of jerks out there. If it's not Tank, it'll be somebody else. Just take the high road. You'll be a lot happier, I promise.
Cody Alright, man. You got it. [he and JC high-five each-other]
Cody Maverick, you're one bodacious surfer. But even more importantly, a good dude. On behalf of the Hang 5, we'd be honored to have you join us.
Cody [pause for a moment's contemplation]
Joining the Hang 5 would be the biggest honor of my entire life. But I-I have to decline.
Hang 5
[shocked]
No!
Wait, what?
Dude, are you sure?
Cody Yeah, bro, I am. All this time, I thought joining the Hang 5, the greatest surf team on the planet, would make me a somebody, a winner that everyone respected. [turns to his friends] But now I know I'm already a part of a great team, [referring to Chicken Joe] with the coolest chicken of the sea, [referring to Lani] and the best, raddest surfer on Pen Gu.
Friendship is truly the universe's...most precious gift.
But what does this mean for us? Now we're 1 member short.
I'm staying! [laughs]
Yeah, our adventures our too much fun. Who wants to just drink fish milk coladas on the beach all day anyways? [gets an idea] Hey, you guys know what we've never done before? Surf during a tsunami! Who's up for it?! [the Hang 5 cheer]
I'll also teach you about teamwork and proper surf etiquette.

[Cody and Tank are fighting in the background]
Okay, cut!
Cody [as Tanks constantly slaps him on the head]
Wait, stop! Stop!
I picked this up for you while I was on tour. [hands Cody a scrolled poster]
Cody Aw, thanks, Joe!
I know how much you like these... [Cody opens the scroll, revealing a selfie of Chicken Joe, and laughs] Oh! Um...
