Donald Duck
[referring to a pinata]

What's this?

Panchito

What's this? [laughs] This is your gift from Mexico, Donald: a pinata!

Donald Duck

Oh, boy, oh, boy, a pinata!... What's a pinata?

Panchito

A pinata is full of surprises. Presents. It's the very spirit of Christmas.

Donald Duck

Christmas! Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...

Panchito
[laughing]

Oh, no, no, Donald! For goodness sake, not "Jingle Bells". In Mexico, they sing "Las Posadas".

José Carioca

But tell me, Donald, have you ever been to Baia?

Donald Duck

No, I haven't.

José Carioca

No? Oh, I am so sorry for you. Ah, Baia. It is like a song in my heart. A song with love and beautiful memories. Que saudades que eu tenho. Ah, Baia. I close my eyes, and I can see it now. I can see the beautiful twilight in the sky. I can feel the breeze from the bay. And I can hear the music, the music of Baia.

Prof. Holloway
[Pablo the penguin has fulfilled his dream of moving to a warmer, more tropical climate]

And so, as the warm, tropical sun sinks slowly in the west, we leave little Pablo, a bird in paradise, a picture of health in his new coat of tan. He should be the happiest penguin in the world.

Prof. Holloway
[Pablo looks at some photographs of penguins back at the South Pole]

Only, sometimes he gets to thinking...

Narrator
[laughs]

Never satisfied. Well, that's human nature for you, even if you're a penguin.

Donald Duck

You're absolutely right.

Narrator
[Donald is about to watch a movie on rare birds, one of his birthday presents] [on movie]

Aves raras.

Donald Duck

¿Aves raras?

Narrator

Si, señor. That means "strange birds".

Donald Duck

Oh, sure, sure! I know! Birds!

Narrator
[Donald forms his hands together and flaps them like the wings of a bird]

Yes, amigo, your feathered cousins. You know, Donald, you have more relatives here than there are coffee beans in Brazil.

José Carioca

What do you feel about Baia? Tell me the truth.

Donald Duck

Oh, swell! Marvelous! Romance! [puckers up lips as if kissing] Moonlight!

Donald Duck
[A crescent moon falls out the sky, landing next to Donald]

Beautiful girls!

José Carioca
[Donald pretends momentarily to look like a girl]

Sim, senhor. Voce e um grande pirata. Or, as you say, you are a wolf!
