Junior

[edit]
  • [first lines of the film; narrating] For as long as can be remembered, storks delivered babies... [We see the tower called "Stork Mountain" as the storks fly out to deliver babies] From their perch on Stork Mountain. [We see clouds as a silhouette stork is flying] It was an honor and a privilege to serve. [We see a stork flying while holding a blonde-haired brown skinned baby with a white blanket] It was our duty, our core belief the driving force of our very lifeblood.
  • If anyone finds out about this, I am dead meat! My hopes of becoming boss (will be) destroyed (for good)!
  • [to the penguins; as he and Tulip prepares for a battle] Put down that baby!
  • An annoying person asked me once why I want to be boss. Well, I never knew why until today. Baby delivery is our true calling. This is not just a bunch of metal and glass and whatever that giant magical crystal thing is made out of. This is the heart of what Storks were put on this earth to do. This is our mission. We pride ourselves on customer service. Well this is a family that never got the baby they asked for. Make a plan. Stick to the plan. Always deliver!

Tulip

[edit]
  • Tulip is fine. Orphan hurts my heart.
  • I want to see the baby.
  • You don't? [laughing with Junior] All right, you laugh when you're uncomfortable. Am I pushing your buttons?

Dialogue

[edit]
Junior: [first lines of the film; narrating] For as long as can be remembered, storks delivered babies... [We see the tower called "Stork Mountain" as the storks fly out to deliver babies] From their perch on Stork Mountain. [We see clouds as a silhouette stork is flying] It was an honor and a privilege to serve. [We see a stork flying while holding a blonde-haired brown skinned baby with a white blanket] It was our duty, our core belief the driving force of our very lifeblood.
Toady: [shows Junior a picture of a Goose on his phone] Check out my girlfriend! She's in Canada!
Junior: Yeah huh.
Toady: She migrated, she's not made up.
Junior: Okay.
Toady: [waving his phone around] Look at her, look at her! She exists, brah!
Junior: That's great.
Hunter: Junior, you know why I built my office entirely out of glass even though birds can't see glass?
Junior: I do not.
[storks fly smack into the glass]
Hunter: Power move. 18 years ago, I saved all storks by getting out of babies and into package delivery. Now, this Monday at Storkcon, the board will announce they're kicking me upstairs.. I'm going to be named Chairman. Which means you are going to be named boss.
Junior: Excuse me! Orphan Tulip?
Tulip: Junior, you're talking to me?
Junior: Yes, Orphan Tulip!
Tulip: No, it's ju- Uh, it's just that you never talk to me.
Junior: Well, yeah, that's changing starting today, Orphan Tulip.
Tulip: Oh, uh, Tulip is just fine, Orphan hurts my heart.
Junior: Oh boy. Uh, Tulip, OK. I have news for you.
Tulip: Before you finish, for you to come to wish me a happy birthday, that's just the nicest, you know it's like a little rainbow. So, thank you. [sniffs] That's really nice. But, oh, I'm sorry, I interrupted you. What were you gonna tell me?
Junior: Uh...Oh boy. I have wonderful news for you. You have been liberated.
Tulip: What does that mean?
Junior: Well, it means that you are [softly, faster] fired.
Tulip: What?
Junior: You're fir...[stuttering; grunting]
Tulip: Are you okay?
Junior: Excuse me. You're fi...You're fantasic!
Tulip: Really? Because I just blew up the most of the factory.
Junior: Oh yeah. What a twist. Um...Well, it means [a scene pans over the baby factory] Oh!
Henry: Gardner Real Estate. Henry...
Sarah: ...And Sarah...
Both: Gardner! A house is not a home without a Gardner! [laughs]
Nate: Ninja Commander, where are you?
Henry: Uh, can you hold one second?
Nate: You promised me that we were taking down Dr. LeFreeze this afternoon. You didn't show up, and now he controls most of Western Europe. Ethnic tension is on the rise.
Henry: Yeah...We're totally done after this call, okay?
Nate: Really?
Henry: Five more minutes.
Sarah: And then we'll stop.
Both: We promise.
Nate: Mom! Dad! the storks are bringing me a baby brother!
Henry: [yawned] That sounds like a nice dream, buddy.
Sarah: Let's go back to sleep, honey.
Nate: This is the best day of my life!
Toady: [seeing white powder on the floor] Powduh? [brushes some into the air, tastes a bit of the powder] Baby Powduh!
Tulip: [singing] Baby, what are we gonna call you, baby? This is crazy! We're delivering a baby!
Junior: No, we're delivering a package. Maybe we should name it instead of calling the package. We do not name the package, OK? We make a plan, stick to the plan, always deliver. And we get back to Storkcon, so, the board can name me boss.
Tulip: Whoa, it's so exciting! What can we expect from boss Junior?
Junior: [lowers Tulip's hand] Oh, you know it's top secret. [guffaws]
Tulip: You can tell me, come on.
Junior: It's gonna be big.
Tulip: Like, what? Like what? How big? Like, what are you gonna do?
Junior: I prefer we're gonna talk about it right now.
[both laughs]
Tulip: Do you not know?
Junior: What?
Tulip: Oh, my gosh, you don't know.
Junior: [offscreen] I know.
Tulip: [gasped] If you don't know, why do you want to be boss?
Junior: I know.
Tulip: You don't? [laughing with Junior] All man, you laugh when you're uncomfortable.
Junior: [laughing] No.
Tulip: Am I pushing your buttons?
Junior: Uh, no.
Tulip: Yes, I am.
Junior: Nah, no.
Tulip: [laughing] Beep, beep, Boop, boop, beep, beep...
Junior: No, those aren't even where my buttons would be if I had buttons.
Tulip: Beep, beep, boop, boop...
Junior: Nice try.
Tulip: [robotic voice] I am programming you to tell me why you want to be boss.
Junior: [robotic voice] I love robots, so this is fun.
Tulip: Beep, beep, boop, boop...
Junior: We're having a good time together.
Tulip: Why do you want to be boss, why do you want to be boss, why do you want to be boss?
Junior: BACK OFF!!!
Tulip: AAAAAAGH!! [Junior gets Tulip back on the plane after her hat and goggles blew off]
Junior: Wow! Well, that was funny. You almost died. I guess the lesson we learned today is... don't ask me why I want to be boss, right? [chuckles] Okay, good talk.
Tulip: Look at the baby!
Junior: NO! Just a brief exposure to baby cuteness can ruin your life!
[both look at the pink-haired baby girl]
Tulip and Junior: Awww!
Tulip: If this baby finds her family, then maybe I can find mine.
Alpha Wolf: I'm gonna devour this thing!
[wolves start licking the Diamond Destiny's face lovingly; she giggles with delight]
[Junior, Tulip and Diamond get across a bridge and cut it so that the Wolf Pack can't get across]
Junior: Suck it, wolves!
Alpha Wolf: Wolf Pack, form a wolf bridge!
Junior: What is happening?
Tulip: The wolves are forming a suspension bridge.
Junior: How is that possible?
Tulip: I don't know.
Alpha Wolf: Wolf Pack, form a wolf submarine!
[the pack make themselves into a submarine... then come up for air]
Nate and Henry: Five more minutes and then we stop.
Sarah: [shocked] What?!
Nate and Henry: Five more minutes...
Sarah: [offscreen] No! [As Henry accidentally throws a sledge hammer away, crashes] That's our chimney, you're gonna destroy the whole roof?!
Nate: Mom, we have to replace the chimney with a slide for when the storks deliver my baby brother.
Henry: What he said.
Sarah: No. Don't be crazy. You cannot do the chimney. Come on, don't make me the mean mom.
Nate: Dads are fun, moms are mean.
Henry: I heard that!
Sarah: Parent conference. [As she pinched Henry's ear]
Henry: Pinching.
Sarah: Henry, people are gonna think we're crazy. We need to tell him.
Henry: Tell him what? What, to go watch more TV? This is the best time I've had with Nate in my life. I actually feel like a dad again.
Sarah: And when no baby brother shows up?
Henry: Well, then we tell him. We can get a new chimney, but we'll never be able to replace this time with Nate. And if we put those headsets back on, how old will Nate be when we take them off again?
Nate: I'm not a jerky teen yet. Fleeting moments, precious memories.
Junior: We're not like a family; we're just a guy and girl trying to raise a baby.
[Junior smacks into a glass pathway]
Junior: My old nemesis: glass!
Tulip: [gasps] Birds can't see glass!
Policeman: This is not code.
Nate: [Henry and Sarah gasps] What?!
Policeman: It's all have come down.
Junior: [Hunter opens the door; gasps] Hunter?
Hunter: You're fired. (Policeman is dead!)
Junior: [stammers] But, but-but-but...
Hunter: [mockingly] “But, but-but-but-but…” You are so idiotic. How were you not suspicious? [the screen zooms out to a fake house in front of two warehouses]
Junior: I thought this was a gentrifying neighborhood.
Toady: Didn't expect to see you here, brah! Oh, yes, I did. I set it up.
Hunter: Seize the thing!
[penguins squeaking and they taking Diamond Destiny]
Junior: Wait, no! Not the baby!
Hunter: Don't worry, she's gonna be fine. She's with penguins. There are whole documentaries about how great they are at baby-sitting!
[a scene where a penguin in a snowy storm, a walrus ate it and except the egg]
Hunter: And she'll be an excellent swimmer. And then when she's old enough, we'll return her to the human world.
Junior: That's insane! You need to deliver her!
Hunter: We can't let it get out that we accidentally made a baby!
Hunter: Don't worry, she's gonna be fine. She's with penguins. There are whole documentaries about how great they are at baby-sitting!
Junior: Put down THAT BABY!
Penguin: Shhh!
[points out Diamond Destiny is asleep; a silent fight starts]
