Frida Suárez quotes from El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera

Frida

[as Manny tries to pull her away from the bubble wrap] Just one more pop. One more pop. Just… JUST ONE MORE POP!!!

Frida

The churros. The churros! TAKE ME INSTEAD! [sobbing]

Frida

Sartana, never underestimate the power of… me throwing a potato!

Frida

Feel the sting of Sartana's strings. [singing] ♪ She tossed El Tigre like a salad / Sartana of the Dead! / Listen to my Sartana ballad / Listen to me shred! / She smashed him, and flashed him, and blasted his hair! / She flipped him, and stripped him to his underwear! / ZEBRA DONKEY UNDERWEAR! / Sartana crushed El Tigre like a worm! ♪

Frida

[after the Rivera-mobile is destroyed when they reach the finish line and win the race] Goodnight, sweet prince, and flights of-- Hey, a quarter!

Frida

[opens a door to a secret room] Aww, look at that. The Titan has a White Pantera shrine. [gasps in horror] He has an El Tigre anti-shrine! [gasps again] And a book on Giant Squid Training! [gasps again] And a remote control for that giant robot set to attack! [gasps again in shock while holding a photo frame of herself with the word "Lame" pointing at her] And he thinks I'm lame! Clearly he has lost his mind!

Frida

[holding onto Manny, screaming] Lucky for us we're already in a coffin. [resumes screaming]

Frida

Manny, red hot lava! Getting close, but no pressure!

Frida

These space dudes ain't gonna know what hit 'em!

Frida

Is good, Manny. Being zombie very, very good.

Frida

[holding up a tiny shovel] Girl with tiny shovel!

Frida

[screaming as she and Manny dangle from the blimp door while floating in midair above Miracle City] Hey, I can see my house from here. [resumes screaming]

Rodolfo

Manny, I'm home. How are you kids doing?

Bored.

Frida

There's nothing fun to do.

Rodolfo

Fun is what you make of it. For instance, today I battled giant squid creatures trying to steal the Jeweled Mule of Maya. Fun! The leader escaped with the mule, but I will find him. This I swear!

Frida

I thought you quit superheroing.

Rodolfo

Technically, I'm retired. But as long as there is evil, and I am young and vital enough to oppose it, I will.

Manny

You're super macho.

Frida

You were right. Watching you dad sleep is less boring than TV. Hey, he forgot to take his boots off. [walks up to take the Bronze Boots of Truth off his feet]

Manny

[stops her; sputtering] He never takes off the Bronze Boots of Truth. He gets all his White Pantera abilities from them.

Frida

[walks up close] Oh, yeah? And those abilities would be?

Manny

[illustrating] He can run, jump and fight, with super macho speed and strength. And anyone the boots those touch is forced to tell the truth.

Frida

[touches the boots and speaks in a hypnotic-like state] Once, after eating ribs, I wiped my hands on a dog. [takes her finger away as she breaks out of the hypnosis] Cool! Dude, we gotta take these babies out for a spin!

Manny

We can't steal my dad's boots!

Frida

Not steal, borrow. We'll put them back before he wakes up.

Manny

Hmm… I will inherit them someday, so I should know how to use them, but...

Frida

[popping over] You are a good son.

Frida

[whispering to Manny while they stand in front of the Guacamole de Los Angeles in the mercado] Tattoo Maker.

Manny

Frida, I can't go home without guacamole. The giant floating tattoo dad head won't let me!

[disguised as a sweet old lady] Perhaps I can be of assistance. I just happened to have something that might help you. [steps out of the shadows] Guacamole de los Anglos!

Manny

I don't know. Mysterious old lady... emerging from the shadows.

Frida

[suspiciously] Seems kind of sketchy.

It's free.

Sold. [they leave the mercado with the guacamole]

[laughing evilly] I knew the Riveras had to buy that guacamole today. Now they fallen for the totally brilliant trap of… [takes of his old lady disguise] Dr. Chipotle, Jr. [infuriated] THE FILTHY SWINE! I remember when El Tigre and White Pantera captured my father. [flashback to that time; voice-over] He was minding his own business using his jalapeño monster to rob the Miracle City Bank. And they took him! For no reason! That very night, I swore an oath of vengeance. [savagely] I... Don't... Like... YOU!!! [back to present] Now, at last, THEY WILL PAY!!!!

Weren't you just dressed up like an old lady?
