Austin quotes from The Backyardigans

Ugh!

Quicksand bad.

[sighs sadly] This is the worst birthday ever. [arrives at Mummy King Tyrone's pyramid and enters] Hello? Mummy King? Anyone home? [pulls out a flashlight and finds some hieroglyphics] It's a good thing I can read hieroglyphics. It says… [reading] "Warning: Big monster mummy king up ahead. Go no further." Well, I have to go further. [continues reading] "Okay, but whatever you do, do not step on the "X." [curious] Hmm. I wonder what that means. [finds himself standing on the "X" and looks up] Uh-oh. [moves out of the way when a boulder falls from the ceiling] I better not step on anymore Xs. [sees tiles all over the floor marked with Xs] Oh, brother. This is just what I needed for my birthday.

[tickling the tree as it swings Mummy King Tyrone back and forth] Just as I thought. A ticklish tree. [The tree lets go of Mummy King Tyrone, sending him flying in the air and land on the ground] Come on, and stay away from the trees.

[to the viewers after Tyrone throws a newspaper at him and calling him a big bad wolf; confused] Big bad wolf? I may be big, but I'm not bad. I just want to blow up his tire. Hey! Wait up! [chases after him]

[singing] What do you do with a scurvy pirate?

[singing] Raid their ship and then hot-wire it.

[singing] What do you do with a scurvy pirate?

[singing] Make them walk the plank!

[singing] What do you do with a scurvy pirate?

[singing] Load the cannon up and fire it.

[singing] What do you do with a scurvy pirate? Make them walk the plank!

[singing] We'll raid their scurvy pirate ship, and make them walk the plank!

[singing] We'll grab up all their treasure,

[singing] And put it in the bank!

[singing] What do you do with a scurvy pirate?

[singing] Load the cannon up and fire it.

[singing] What do you do with a scurvy pirate?

[singing] Make them walk the plank!

[singing] These trees look so familiar, we've been here once before.

You're right except it wasn't once.

It was three times.

Or four.

[singing] 'Please' and 'thank you', that's the secret of the Nile!

[singing] 'Please' and 'thank you' gets you practically anything you want with a smile!

[singing] Even princesses should try to be polite. 'Please' and 'thank you', they're just right, so don't be rude!

[singing] 'Please' and 'thank you' are not things I usually say, but since you insist, I'll start to say them much more often as of today. Who exactly should I say these phrases to?

[singing] How 'bout those three guys who do the work for you?

[singing] Thank you guys for knowing where the special gifts were hid!

[singing] You're welcome!

[singing] And thank you guys for helping me find them like you did!

[singing] You're welcome!

[singing] And thank you guys for doing all that other servant work!

[singing] You're welcome!

[singing] And please forgive me if I acted kind of like a jerk.

[singing] That's okay.

[singing] 'Please' and 'thank you', that's the secret of the Nile, 'please' and 'thank you' get you...

[singing] Practically anything you want with a smile.

Egypt's nice when we all try to be polite. Please' and 'thank you' are just right, 'you're welcome', too!

Hey, lifeguard dude! Do you know where Tiki Beach is?

You're looking for Tiki Beach?

Totally. I wanna surf the perfect wave.

Well, you gotta have rad moves to surf Tiki Beach.

[to the viewers] I guess lifeguards like to call everybody dude, too. [back to Austin] No problemo, dude. Check this out! [does the monkey move]

Dude, that's the monkey. Anybody can do the monkey. That's not a radical move.

Oh. Well, how about this? [does the twist move]

That's just the twist. That's not a rad move either.

Oh. Hmm… Well, not everybody can do this! [does the triple whip]

The triple whip, huh? Now that's a rad move.

Totally!

What else can you do?

Uh, well, that's the only rad move I know.

You need all rad moves to surf Tiki Beach, dude. Not just one.

Bummer. But I still wanna find Tiki Beach.

Well, it could be up north, or it could be down south…

This lifeguard's being kind of mysterious. So which way should I go, dude?

Hmm, try that way. [points to the right] Look for the tall trees.

Tall trees. Okay, thanks, dude! Later! [walks to his dune buggy and drives away]

[to the viewers] Actually, Tiki Beach isn't that way. I tricked him. I couldn't tell him where it really is. Because he just doesn't have the moves yet. He's got a lot to learn before he can surf Tiki Beach.

It's that mystery lifeguard!

Dude, you tried to keep us from finding Tiki Beach!

Yeah. Why did you keep steering us wrong?

I had to. I'm not just a mystery lifeguard. I'm the guardian of Tiki Beach. I make sure that only surfers who know all the rad moves can find Tiki Beach.

We've got rad moves, dude!

Totally! We can do the runaround.

And the funk-a-dilly!

And the triple whip! We've got all the rad moves, dude!

You do, huh?

Totally!

Well, then, dudes and dudette, surf's up!

Where do you think you're going?

Uh… to the Tower of Power so we can rule the world?

Oh, no, you don't. We'll catch you.

RUN!

How are we gonna catch those supervillains?

Hmm… [gets an idea] I know! Build us a boat, Captain Hammer.

[baffled] A boat? What good will that do on the ice?

There's no time to explain. Trust me.

[reluctantly] Well, okay.

We made to the tower! Now we just need to get to the top and grab the key.

[sees Austin and Uniqua coming towards them] But here come the superheroes! What will we do?

[as an idea pops into his head] I know! We'll fake 'em out! Let's pretend to be tired and then, when they fall for our trick, we'll get 'em! [he and Tyrone laugh wickedly] Here they come!

Villains, HALT!

[panting] (No.) It's okay… You win, superheroes.

[panting] We're too tired… to climb the tower. You guys go ahead.

Great! Now's our chance! [walks towards the entrance]

Now, Dr. Shrinky!

Captain Hammer, SHRINK! [fires his shockwaves, shrinking Austin down to the size of a mouse]

[horrified] Captain Hammer!

[in high-pitched squeaky voice] Uh-oh!

You shrunk Captain Hammer?!

I'm here!

[lowers her hand to pick him up] Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine. But the villains are going in the tower.

[pondering] Now what are we gonna do?

[trying to speak up with his squeaky voice] We've got to stop them!

What?

We've got to stop them!

[puts her hand to her ear for better listening] What?

I said, we've got to stop them!

Oh. Yes, you're right. But they shrunk you.

I know they did. But I'm still a brave superhero and we've got to stop them.

Not so fast, supervillains!

[shocked] Weather Woman!

You'll never get the key!

[puts his hand to his ear] What?

You'll never get the key!

What?

[slightly annoyed] He said, you'll never get the key!

Oh.

Nonsense! You and your teensy, weensy friend can't defeat us now!
