Lines by Zim 35

Zim

We cannot fail, GIR. Even as a small Irken smeet my dream was to pass probing day like a Slor Beast passes her young. Jiggly! And full of juice...

Zim

My empire of doom begins NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWW!

Zim

Give me back my PAK, Dib! I need it to live! Without it, I can only survive in ten minutes and the countdown has already started! I am not going to expire on this filthy planet because of you!

Scenes with Zim 149

Zim

Now to unleash screaming temporal doom.

[The hunter destroyer machine goes into the portal, but is immediately shot back out. Cue the reason:]

CComputer

Object not compatible with temporal field.

Zim

Oh, not compatible!? Is this thing just completely useless? Not compatible.

[Zim grabs GIR's rubber piggy and chucks it. It bounces off of the overturned Hunter-Destroyer machine and - much to Zim's surprise - goes into the time portal. The rest is altered history...]

CComputer

Object accepted. Temporal displacement to process.

Zim

Huh?

[Deep Voice] YOU WILL PAY FOR RUINING MY CHILDHOOD, ZIM! YOU WILL PAY!

Zim

That last piggy should have reduced him to nothing. What happened? Where did history go wrong?

Zim

Of course, my scary sister. I obey.

RDRobot Dib

Of course, my scary sister. I obey.

Zim

[back to normal voice] That was them! I have to return this thing now!

No! I'm still watching it! I wanna see what happens! I need it! [GIR knocks his bag of Poop Corn off of the couch and starts crying.] Whu...WHHHHHHHHYYYYYY!?! [Zim takes the DVD of the movie and walks out the door with it. GIR runs around in circles screaming and crying. He stops running and hops in place. He holds his head and screams a long high pitched scream and then falls to the floor, asleep and snoring.]

S1 FBI Warning of Doom
View quote →

No. I'm sick of waiting and watching. I should take action! I'm… talking out loud some more. Odd. I'M GOING FOR IT! [jumps into the air and lands on Zim's lawn, dodges the gnomes as they lock on him and end up blasting their heads off, and lands on Zim's doorstep, making several poses and knocks on the door]

Zim

[answers the door; confused] Huh?

I've got a few things to tell you, Zim. [pan up to the sky as the sun changes from mid-day to early evening, pan back down] And that's all I have to say about that.

Zim

[pondering] Ehh… okay. [goes back inside his house for a few seconds, and reappears with a suitcase and Gir] I can't argue with that, Dib. You've won. I'm giving myself up to the Earth authorities. [to Gir] It's been nice working with you, Gir. Now, self-destruct.

Finally! [laughs, emits out a high-pitched noise, and explodes]

[A police car pulls up in front of Zim's house, and Zim gets in and drives away]

This feeling, the power! It isn't going away! Things really are going to be different for me! At last! [makes a fighting pose] YAH!

[Membrane house; Professor Membrane and Gaz watch Dib being interviewed on live TV]

TRTV Reporter

You've opened the world's eyes to the existence of aliens, Dib! Now what?

There are many other mysteries still unsolved. I figured, you know… I'll do some of that. [smiles at the camera while the flashes of cameras and microphones surround him]

Zim

DIB!

[enters the room, with Claire Danes holding his arms] It's been years, Zim.

Zim

Twenty of your years to be precise, enduring these indignities. The only reason I have not tried to escape is because it amuses me.

Amuses you to what?

Zim

Ah, yes! The invasion!

I didn't ask you about the invasion.

Zim

Oh, you didn't? Well, you were supposed to. Well, they'll be here! The armada will come and there's nothing you can do about it!

We'll see, Zim. We'll see.

Zim

That's it! Time!

What you say?

Zim

If I can bring the time field around the explosion back up to regular speed, it'll fix everything!

No it won't...

Zim

The explosion will blow up like normal and be gone forever!

But won't it just explode? Just like this! KABLAM!

Zim

Do not interrupt my being ingenious!

Zim

There! I've accelerated Dib's time field to cancel out the field around the explosion. Computer! What's the angle of trajectory?

ZSZim's Computer

36 mark 2. But seriously, if you just speed up the explosion-

Zim

I don't pay you to contradict me!

ZSZim's Computer

You don't... pay me at all...

[being used as a catapult for an accelerator to speed up the explosion] But if the big 'splodey goes fast, won't it get all bad?

GIR, reporting for duty.

Zim

"GIR"? What does the G stand for?

[confused] I don't know! [pauses, then begins screaming and hitting himself]

Zim

Ummm, is it supposed to be stupid?

It's not stupid; [sarcastically] it's advanced!
