Escargoon quotes from Kirby: Right Back at Ya!

King Dedede

Come back here, Escargoon! I wanna see what you been hiding underneath that shell of yours!

Escargoon

You're crazy! It's not open to the public!

King Dedede

Slow down, so I can get a crack at it! [He tried to a mallet to Escargoon's shell, but it missed, Escargoon laughs] Grrr!! Come here!

Escargoon

[jumps] Oh! How dare you try to hit me! [jumps again]

Escargoon

[laughs] Methinks the king is out of shape. Well, adieu. [chuckles, leaves with suavity]

Escargoon

Sneak attack!

King Dedede

I'm crackin' your shell open and havin' a look!

King Dedede

Ah-ha!

Escargoon

Huh?

King Dedede

[he points on Escargoon's shell] Hey, it's startin' to open up!

Escargoon

[screaming] It is? Everything looks okay to me?

King Dedede

I always knew you was a little bit cracked. Now you're more cracked than before! [laughs]

Escargoon

You may find this amusing but I don't! [groans] I just hope I don't catch pneumonia.

Okay.

Escargoon

Phew, I feel so much better. But why'd you have to repair it tape? The least you could a done is use the invisible kind!

This is just temporary. We'll come up with something nicer.

Escargoon

[to Tiff] Anything be nicer than this cheap fix! [to Doctor Yabui] Can't you patch up this shell with some kind of plastic surgery!?

Hmph. I suggest you find yourself a veterinarian for that.

Hey. Why don't we fix it with some glue?

Yeah. The really strong kind.

It might work, but to apply glue you'd have to remove the shell temporarily.

That won't be so bad. Come on, let's go look around for something Escargoon can wear in the meantime.

Kirby

Poyo!

King Dedede

With my new remote-controlled spy fly, I'll get me a real bug's eye view! [He uses the Grasshopper Eavesdropper to take a peek at the Escargoon in a changing-tent]

Escargoon

How humiliating...[He picks up the tin pan] This one looks too small, but I'll try it on anyway,

King Dedede

This is it! Yeah! Let see!!

Escargoon

[Moans, but he notices Grasshopper Eavesdropper spying on him and he screams in shock, smashing it with the tin-pan] SPY ON ME, WILL YA!?

King Dedede

It's busted! Now my undercover bug can't spy on that slug!

Escargoon, are you okay?

Hehe..

Uhh...Sorry about that.

Escargoon

[In the changing tent] A tin pan on my can...How am I supposed to look good in this junkaroo!? [Wears a bucket] Ta-da! Bucket-butt! [Wears a sheep wool] Look at me! I'm a sheep! I'm a mess! [Wears a vase, laughing] How about this one? Disaster! [As he throws a vase out of changing tent]

Sir Ebrum

Steady, Tiff.

Lady Like

Did it work?

I hope so. Wow, this shell sure is interesting.

It is?

Sure. Just look at how intricate it is inside.

Wow, how come something as nasty as a snail gets such a nice shell, Tiff?

Because snails don't have any bones in their bodies.

Sir Ebrum

I wonder what he does look like without that shell.

Escar-goofy!

Escargoon

[upset] Quit making jokes and go find me something decent to wear, I can't bear it anymore!

Escargoon

It's amazing! Kirby, this is so nice it almost makes me regret all the times I tried to destroyed you!

Kirby

Poyo!

Escargoon

OK, kids, get ready. Presenting..me! [Everybody applauds and Kirby cheers. Escargoon posing with his new shell for a bit] Hi!

Lady Like

Very becoming!

Escargoon

It shows the spikier of me.

And it looks like a perfect fit, too.

Escargoon

Merci. Fashion's show's over, missy! Get cracking that shell! And step on it!

Man, he's still rotten.

I guess you can't judge a slug by his cover.

King Dedede

So? Making like top-shell, huh? You lucky I didn't fricasse you!

Escargoon

Yeah, well you came close enough!

Escargoon's just wearing this, while we're trying to fix up this regular shell.

King Dedede

Oh. Now I get it.

Kirby

Poyo.

King Dedede

You hog! You ate my tender delicious topshell before I got to it!

Escargoon

That shell was empty when I put it on, you blowhard!

King Dedede

Hey, that reminds me!...I still ain't seen what you been hiding under that shell!

Escargoon

[laughs in evilly] It's too late now.

King Dedede

New shell or no new shell, I still wanna see what you hiding underneath here!

Escargoon

It's no use, but give it a shot, Sire.

King Dedede

ALRIGHT!!! [He attempts to break it open, but to no avail] It's too hard.

Escargoon

[He fits back into his repaired old shell] Ta-dah!

Escargoon's shell looks as good as new.

And all's well that ends well.

King Dedede

Hold on! I think there's another crack in that there!

Escargoon

The only thing cracked in this room is you, you wacko!

King Dedede

Just one little-itty-bitty peek?

Escargoon

You keep your paws off of me! HELP!

King Dedede

Escargoon, please!?

Escargoon

Buzz off, you creep!

Well, at least that monster's gone.

Yeah, but it would have tasted good with some garlic and melted butter.

Escargoon

This is our hero, King Dedede and his evil arch-nemesis, Kirby.

King Dedede

Kirby's a klutz, but he's a tough fighter!

Escargoon

However, the king always defeats Kirby by the end of the episode.

King Dedede

Makes you wish real life was more like TV. [he and Escargoon break out in laughter]

Escargoon

So, what do you fellas think about of our show?

King Dedede

Ain't you got questions before you start to draw?

Dudes, that girl character is totally awesome.

She's so awesome, she deserves her own animated series.

Why don't we make HER the hero?

Escargoon

Tiff can't be the hero! She's a bad guy!

King Dedede

There's only room for one hero on my show and that's me!

This is like a no-brainer.

Totally no-brainer.

Tiff has to be the star.

Totally.

Totally.

We'll have her fight monsters!

We'll give her some super powers!

We'll maybe a secret identity!

Escargoon

Believe me, guys, she's no hero.

King Dedede

If ya saw up close, you'd agree.

Cool, then we'll check her out.

We'll see you later.

Escargoon

You're leaving?

King Dedede

You just got here.

[as they heading outside] Roses are red. Violets are blue. Here we come, Tiff. We're gonna draw you!

King Dedede

They don't seem like professional animators.

Escargoon

I bet they don't have enough brains among the three of 'em to fill a pencil case.

King Dedede

My new cartoon's premierin' in two days?!

You better get moving, Triple D! A hole opened up in our network's schedule for the day after tomorrow!

Escargoon

We can't produce a cartoon in 48 hours!

King Dedede

Don't worry, we'll wiggle out of this one somehow.

According to our contract, if you don't finish the cartoon on time you won't get your production money back!

King Dedede

I done got swindled here! [Escargoon exclaims] We gotta find them three guys.

Escargoon

Uh-huh. [He and Dedede run off]

Escargoon

You guys have two days to finish a cartoon!

But dude, that's not enough time.

Escargoon

Really?! Then you loafers will just have to draw around the clock!

King Dedede

Now quit stallin' and go get to work!

King Dedede

Don't let 'em get a wink of sleep till they finish with my cartoon.

Yes, sire!

Escargoon

You guys better work fast. If that cartoon show isn't done in two days you'll be staying down here permanently!

Escargoon

See? We're crackin' the whip on 'em!

King Dedede

Them animators is under total control now. I ain't gonna let 'em out the dungeon 'till they got my cartoon finished!

But they look miserable in there.

These animators like they're dangerous animals.

King Dedede

I think that there's an insult!

Escargoon

Yeah, animals aren't that bad.

They could be drawing whatever they want to.

Did you check on them to make sure they're drawing you?

King Dedede

Let me see!

Later!

Escargoon

[Bony exclaims] I want to look at what you're doing!

See, I told you so.

Escargoon

She's right, they haven't made any drawings of you!

King Dedede

NO WAY!!! How can this show be about me if i ain't in it!

Escargoon

They can't redo the cartoon in one day.

King Dedede

Only way to make the broadcast is to force the Cappies to do it!

Don't bet on it, the Cappies would never work for you again.

They learned their lesson last time.

King Dedede

[angrily growling in furious. He runs off] Let's go talk to the Salesman!

Aww, having production problems?

Escargoon

Those animators you sent won't obey our orders!

King Dedede

They makin' the show all about Tiff!

If we don't get your cartoon tomorrow there's a penalty.

King Dedede

Don't blame me, it's them animation freaks fault!

Escargoon

The only way we can deliver on time is if you send us the fastest animator ever.

King Dedede

Make it quick, there ain't time to lose!

Hey, it's morning.

And there's still no cartoon.

King Dedede

If we don't put a cartoon on I'll be flat broke!

Escargoon

But, Sire, there's only five minutes left to go!

King Dedede

Whoever said "the show must go on" didn't know us!

Too bad those professional animators couldn't help you.

[stop crying] Huh? What'd you say?

King Dedede

So let's go!

Escargoon

There's still hope!
