The Dark Side Of The SWAT Kats
[edit]- Razor: Dark Kat is our friend... Feral and the Enforcers are our enemies... and we're wanted for every crime in Megakat City! Something's screwy...
- T-Bone: Yeah! Ever since we got hit by the lightning, the world's gone crazy!
- Razor: You're right, T-Bone! The lightning must have hit the dimensional radar and somehow thrown us into a quirky alternate dimension!
- T-Bone: Alternate? Hold it, hold it! Are you telling me that somewhere in this world are a couple of evil SWAT Kats?
- Razor: You got a better theory? Any ideas you could do? So why don't you go and I find that detonator if they don't catch us and Feral isn't mad anymore so he can give us a nice reward to thanking him?
- T-Bone: A better theory? We're negative... so why don't I just find us a nice big storm cloud so we can get hit by lightning again and get out of this screwy dimension, huh? With our evil counterparts?
Mutation City
[edit]- Jake: So tell me. Why are you in a bad mood for losing a game? And what's the matter with ya nagging with all of this behavior like that?
- Chance: [sad] Because, I'm a bad sport, and I'm out of a different shape. If I don't get a goal at the obstacle course, I'm just a slowpoke! I did all the drowning to pretend!
- Jake: Come on. Give it a rest, Chance. You gotta be calm, be cool, and be confident of like I'm suppose to do.
- Chance: You're right.
- Jake: Come on, Chance. We shall get some more training to do.
- Chance: [sighs] Fine. I will.
- Jake: That's why I am so awesome, and you've got it! [Jake kicks a punching bag that Chance is holding.] You are a one macho kat!
- Chance: Come on, bud, can't you kick harder than that?
- Jake: Oh, you mean more like this?
- [Jake takes a running start and launches a strong karate kick that knocks the punching bag -- and Chance -- over backward.]

- [A beeping alarm gets the kats' attention.]
- Jake: Later... that's Callie!
- [Jake tosses the punching bag back to Chance without looking. It lands in his face.]

The Origin Of Dr. Viper
[edit]- Dr. N. Zyme: Purvis, where do you think you're going with that? And what are you doing with my notes?
- Dr. N. Zyme: Oh, who's there? Is that you, Purvis?
Dr. Viper: Not anymore! Jussssssssssst call me Viper! Dr. Viper! [laughs manically] - Dr. N. Zyme: What are you doing, Purvis?
Dr. Viper: The name isssssssssss Viper! And I'm going to do a little experiment in the biology lab!
Razor's Edge
[edit]- Razor: [walking the street] Hmm.. Something tells me that I couldn't recognize that T-Bone who's all feeling so lonely and vain. [yawns] All I wanted is T-Bone who's on the edge as I am. [lie down and hands behind head and look up in the night sky] It's a longest story that T-Bone won't help me for anything. Meanwhile, Dark Kat keeps trying to take over the Megakat City and devastates everything. Sometimes I wonder if T-Bone brings a neutral cause as he thought it could be. The most reason why is that I'm so toughest easiest than I thought. Even if Callie was here. She's always on a bright side if she wants to. She didn't believe me. She is soo dreamy. But it all happens that I'm in a vain mood. Since I didn't do anything wrong. I'm so innocent, I think I'm always come to prepare my own day. Unless I'm thinking about something new.
SWAT Kats Unplugged
[edit]- Jake: Looking good, buddy... one more coat and we're all done!
- [Jake walks over to a paint can and tries to pry the top off with a screwdriver.]
- Chance: Hey, What's the matter, pal? Can't invent a gadget for opening a stuck paint can? Here, let me help you...
- [Jake walks offstage. Chance makes a fist and slams it down hard on the handle of the screwdriver, sending the lid flying into the air. It makes a SPLAT sound offstage as it lands. Chance catches the screwdriver, then looks surprised. The camera then cuts to Jake, who was hit with the paint end of the lid, and whose face is now covered in paint.]
- Jake: [sarcastically] Now why didn't I think of that?
- Chance: Oops.
- Jake: [hits Chance with a lid] Try again!
- Chance: [who was hit with the paint end of the lid, and his face is now covered in paint.] Why me.
- [Commander Feral is being interviewed by Ann Gora on TV, complaining about the damage that the SWAT Kats did, when offstage we hear and see paint being sprayed on the TV.]
- Jake: Hey, Chance! What are ya, doing?
- Chance: [holding spray gun, smirking] Oh, that Feral! Good thing we had some paint left over, Jake.
- Jake: [exasperated] Aw, Chance! Next time you get upset at the TV, why not try turning it off?
- [Jake's angry sees that Chance is writing on a chalkboard.]
- Jake: And most importantly thing is that you don't wanna mess with me ever again! You got me?! [hits Chance]
- Chance: Oof!
- Jake: [smirks] Me? Ha! I knew this Feral is good at charging us, and I'm happy about stopping this hyena.
- Chance: I'm upset that I did turning it off, I'm unhappy now. [upset sarcastically] Now what did I think of that? (sighs)
Volcanus Erupts!
[edit]- Chance: Sure you don't want a souvenir of Volcanus, buddy?
- Jake: Souvenir? Ha! Are you kidding? Just thinking of Volcanus makes me do a slow burn!
- Chance: Volcanus? What a slow burn, Mr. Jake! Suit yourself.
When Strikes Mutilor
[edit]- Razor: Awesome job, T-Boy!
- T-Bone: Great shot, partner!
- Razor: Lousy shot... I'll be buffing out the dings for weeks!
- T-Bone: And you said that you'll be buffing out the dings for weeks If when that darn ship hits, our too big planet is gonna go ka-blooey!
- Grimalken: Perhaps I can help.
- Razor: Who are you?
- T-Bone: And what's with the facials?
- Grimalken: Captain Grimalken. This ship really belongs to me and my crew, but Mutilor stole it for his space-pirating purposes.
- Razor: Looks like we could work together and we still haven't got enough minutes, (checks a time of his watch) Oh, just look at the time.
- T-Bone: Looks like we can help each other! Stand back! We're getting you out of there!
- T-Bone: There! We made it without a scratch!
- [A bullet from an enemy's gun hits the Turbokat.]
- Razor: See what'd I tell ya- Oh, I wish you hadn't said that!
- T-Bone: I wish you hadn't said that too!
