Rikochet quotes from ¡Mucha Lucha!

Rikochet

Hey, what's the lineup for?

For saving the honor of the school. The Masked Toilet is undefeated. Someone has to beat it!

The Flea

It is just like I told you! The Masked Toilet is back and he wants REVENGE!

Buena Girl

Come on, Flea, you have to learn to face your fears.

Rikochet

That's right, Flea. All true luchadors know that the key to victory is inside yourself.

The Flea

The Flea sees many gaping holes in El Gundamo's poorly planned plan.

Rikochet

Come on! We have to work together!

The Flea

[jumping into action] The Fabulous Flea Fling! [leaps onto the giant sushi monsters and farts on them]

Rikochet

Looks like giant sushi monsters have natural defenses against The Flea's natural stenches. [he and Buena Girl jump into action]

Buena Girl

Buena Gavel of Righteousness!

Rikochet

Spinning Top!

Rikochet

MAMA!!! Have you seen my El Rey mask buffer? [Mama Manaica walks over to the counter to wash the coffee off her face with a towel] Mama, have you seen my mini Lucha Dome with 323 movable parts?

[sternly] When was the last time you cleaned your room?

Rikochet

[trying to remember] Clean my room. Uh, I think, uh… May, July, October… this morning! [sweating anxiously] Yeah, that's it. Uh… this morning.

Rikochet, you cannot find anything in your room, because it looks a P-I-G, pig is living in there.

Rikochet

But, mama, my room is so neat…

So show me.

Rikochet

Uh… You don't need to see it. You're far too busy. Well, time to go. [tries to leave]

[stopping him] Rikochet! I am never too busy for my family.

Rikochet

Uh, well, I guess you're not. Ooh, I think I hear abuelito calling.

Your abuelito is out shopping for a guitar.

Rikochet

What about papa?

On tour.

Rikochet

Masked Dog?

Fed.

Rikochet

The kitchen?

Clean… Unlike your room!

Rikochet

Well, I guess you don't have anything better to do. [leads his mother to his room as they leave the kitchen] (Trust me.) You'll see. [chuckles nervously] My room is all sparkly and clean.

Oh. Heh, heh. It better be muy sparkly and clean, or no more El Rey video games for you!

[off-screen] Rikochet?

Rikochet

[off-screen; nervously] Yes, mama?

[shouting angrily] CLEAN YOUR ROOM!!!

Rikochet

What are you doing?!

The Flea

The Flea is making the best of a good situation, for your own good. Someday, you'll be as famous as your papa. Today, you'll find out what to expect.

Buena Girl

Flea, don't you think it'd be better if Rikochet earned this adulation on his own through practice, dedication, and hard work?

The Flea

What good is practice, dedication, and hard work that's for fame, fortune, and food, huh?

The Flea

[mockingly] "Pulguita this and Pulguita that." Who do you think taught her all those Flea-like moves? The Flea, that's who! Who is she to outshine The Flea?

Rikochet

She's your sister, that's who.

Buena Girl

Besides, how can she outshine you? You're still the big Flea on campus.

The Flea

[voiceover through letter] "Dear Rikochet and Buena Girl, The Flea and Masked Dog hate baths. We are going to find a place where our filth can be appreciated. Goodbye forever."

Rikochet

[shocked] Oh, no, Buena Girl! Flea and Masked Dog have run away!

Buena Girl

Flea, this is like a dream come true!

The Flea

Well, falling into a dumpster of chili cheese fries is a dream come true, but The Flea thinks this is pretty great! How's Rikochet doing?

Buena Girl

It's all buena.

Rikochet

[standing in the middle of the street, wearing a donut costume; uncomfortably dismayed] Public relations he called it. Ay, basura.

Rikochet

Say hello to a brand new me!

Buena Girl

Huh?!

The Flea

[gasps] What the…?!

Rikochet

[after Buena Girl turns off the TV] Why'd you do that?

Buena Girl

[shaking her head in denial] It's just not right.

The Flea

The Flea agrees. Onion juice should be in a mug.

Buena Girl

Flea, that's not what I meant. It's too commercial. It's not what masked wrestling is all about. It's about honor in the ring. It's about us being a tag-team. It's about Lucha Libre! Libre means free, not low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low price.

Rikochet

I think you left out one "low".

[applauding] Bravo, Rikochet! Bravo!

Rikochet

Mama?!

Excellent job.

Rikochet

Mama! What are you doing here?!

Maya is my old college roommate.

She told me that you needed help taking (better) care of your things.

So, we cooked up this little test for you.

Rikochet

A little test? But what about the ancient warrior?

That's my son.

'Sup, yo?

And you passed the test with flying colors, Rikochet! I'm so proud of you!

Rikochet

You expect me to risk the honor of my family and mask because you keep losing?

The Flea

Uh-huh.

Rikochet

Never…gonna…happen.

Rikochet

[to Heavy Traffic] I challenge you to a match! Winner keeps Masked Dog!

This flea-bitten mutt? You're on, bag-head!

LUCHARAAAN!!

Now, we're only going to be gone for a few hours. So we want you niños to be good.

Rikochet

Aw, can't we come, too?

Sorry, mijo, it's a school night.

Rikochet

But, mama, the luchador fabuloso mega-match spectacular only comes once a year.

Buena Girl

And as the future of Lucha Libre, shouldn't we be able to…

The Flea

Blow up bedtimes so we can watch cool centering action?

No.

And be asleep by 9:00. Goodnight, niños.

Rikochet

Well, at least we can watch it on T.V.

Rikochet

Does anyone have any idea of how to get rid of El Maestro Del Mundo?

The Flea

Just give The Flea five minutes, a barrel, some strong twine, a bent sausage, and a lime-green sweater vest!

Rikochet

And then what?

The Flea

Nothing. The Flea is just talking up on supplies.

He's undefeatable.

He just keeps learning, and his just keeps getting bigger!

Rikochet

Wait a second! I think we can turn that skill against him. We need to challenge him to a rematch.

It's over, Igloca.

We beat you fair and square.

Rikochet

Now you have to give this stuff back to the sweltering citizens of the city!

Never! If I can't have it, no one can! [cackles evilly]
