Michelle quotes from 3-2-1 Penguins!

Michelle, is this the way I've taught you to rinse the dishes?

Michelle

[sees the sink overflowing; alarmed] Oh, no! [quickly turns it off and places a towel on the wet floor]

And, Jason, you didn't replace the plastic liner in this trash can.

Sorry, Grandmum, I'll go get it right now.

Michelle

I guess I was in too big a hurry. I'm sorry.

Remember what the Good Book says, Enthusiasm without knowledge is no good. Haste makes mistakes.

Is that a real proverb?

It jolly well is. Take the time to listen and do it right the first time.

Like the trash liner. I'm on it.

You'll just make a mess if you rush.

Now where's that spaceship? It was right here!

Michelle

Jason, you heard Grandmum. We got to put the clean sheets on our beds.

I did.

Michelle

[sternly] Jason.

It's fine. I'll make the bed later. [Midgel galeezles both him and Michelle into the Rockhopper] Whoa, definitely later.

Michelle

Hey, thanks, Midgel. Where is everybody?

Sorry, Michelle, no time for chit chat, we got to get going. [The kids are strapped to their seats and buckle up] The others are at the Comet Lounge making sure Sol doesn't run out of the afternoon special.

JMJason and Michelle

Sol's Aurora Borealis fruit punch!

What are we waiting for?!

JMJason, Michelle, and Midgel

BONSAI!

You were right, Michelle. We didn't take our time and we made mistakes.

Michelle

Captain Zidgel? Jason and I have realized something.

ZZidgel

Can't stop it. Tried everything.

Captain, we have tried everything, except listening.

ZZidgel

Listening? What do you mean?

Michelle

Grandmum told us, enthusiasm without knowledge is no good.

And haste makes mistakes.

ZZidgel

Translated, means…is this a tongue twister?

FFidgel

Wait, I think I know. Rushing to do things in your own enthusiasm instead of taking time to understand and think causes problems.

Cuz you'll just make a mess if you hurry.

Kevin

Yeah, big mess.

Right, we've been in such a hurry to get back to the Comet Lounge for Sol's aurora borealis fruit punch--

Michelle

That we've been running with the first ideas that popped into our heads. Nobody listened to the tiki king.

Hey, Mish, everything all right?

Michelle

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Midgel, do you, do you think I'm pretty?

What? [nervously laughs] Well, to tell you the truth, Michelle, I really don't know much about that sort of thing. To me, the prettiest thing in the world is the Rockhopper. She's a beaut, she is.

FFidgel

[tweaking the galeezle as Michelle enters the main room] Oh, hello, dear. I've been tweaking the galeezle device. Would you like to help me?

Michelle

Fidgel, do you think I'm pretty?

FFidgel

Pretty? Uh, well, pretty is as pretty does, as my mom always used to say. [pulls out a photo of his mother] Ah, Mum was the prettiest woman in the world.

The Good Book says, "Listen to advice and accept instruction, and in the end, you will be wise."

Michelle

You? Wise? Not likely.

[as his sister, Midgel, Fidgel, and Kevin all glare annoyingly at him] No, that was not my fault. It was the lousy time machine. It didn't even work!

Michelle

Or maybe you didn't listen to any advice!

[They hear the sounds of laughing and coughing and see two elderly penguins sitting in rocking chairs, but it turns out, they're the future versions of Midgel and Fidgel]

FMFuture Midgel

Looks like they didn't get the transmission.

FFFuture Fidgel

And I dare say Jason ignored our warnings about the time machine.
