Maurice quotes from The Penguins of Madagascar

Maurice

[after snapping out of his trance] Who would dare wear the sacred crown of King Julien?! Wait. [gasps] It's me!

King Julien

I was so looking forward to eating my delicious cake! How can I look forward to eating nothing?! Answer me, Maurice!

Maurice

They'll make new cakes. New bake-off on the double!

Skipper

Hold it, party boy! One quiet week of scheduled maintenance. Is that too much to ask? Is it?! You bombard me with music, and fruit, and this! [points to the cake on his head] Newsflash, lower mammal, there's no such thing as KING JULIEN DAY!!!

Maurice

[After calling the other zoo animals to the lemur habitat] You’ve all been called here today to dig a proclamation from King Julien himself!

Marlene

[To Burt the elephant] Thirty peanuts says this is about his feet.

Make it forty.

King Julien

[Clears his throat] From this moment that is happening now and on, those who touch the king’s feet, which are mine, will be punished most savagely! [He unfurls a piece of paper with a foot in a “Not allowed” sign] I drew that. Me. I did. [Everyone groans]

Mort

No feet?

Skipper

Well, that’s five minutes of our lives we won’t get back.

Kowalski

Until I get my time machine fully functioning. [Everyone leaves]

Julien

Wait! This is a very serious proclamation that I am proclaiming! [Slaps the “No feet allowed” sign on the volcano] Look! It is posted right here on the plastic volcano! And ANYONE who dares to be touching my beautiful feets shall be banish-ed from my kingdom! FOREVER!!!!!!

Maurice

[Pretending to echo] Ever! Ever. Ever…

Julien

What are you doing?

Maurice

Echoing your for dramatic effect!

Julien

Oh, nice! I like it! Now go to rebuilding my super comfy pamper-time floaty throne! And make it floatier and super comfy! [Maurice leaves]

Mort

[Sadly poking his head out from behind a rock, staring at Julien’s feet] Banished… forever?

Julien

Forever!

Maurice

Ever! Ever! Ever!

Julien

What in the feets are you doing?!?

Mort

I… I… I… You… You… You…

Julien

You… You… You are hereby banish-ed from my kingdom FOREVER!!!! [Looks around] Maurice?!

Maurice

[Late on the echo] Ever! Ever… Wait! You mean Mort’s exiled? For eternity?

Julien

Forever or for eternity! I’m flexible, but the no-feet touching must be of zero tolerance!

You cannot escape us, Mort!

Hug us! We need hugs! [The feet circle around him]

Mort

Shoo! Go away, feet! [Swats the air, pretending to shoo the feet away. Nearby, Marlene watches]

Marlene

Hey, Mort. I heard about the whole foot-banishing thing. If there’s anything I can do to help…

Mort

Fix me! Cure me! Help me! Save me!

Marlene

Whoa! Take it easy, Mort! I’m an otter! Not a miracle worker! But I know someone who can help!

Mort

Ooooh, it smells like the circus!

Skipper

Uh, do you mind? We're trying to help him.

All right, Skipper. That's enough. It's my turn.

Skipper

WHAT?!

Okay, your stomach begins rumbling, it is on the verge of vomiting. Throw up!

Mort

Weeheheheee!

Maurice

Mort the bomb! Get rid of the bomb!

Mort

I got the bomb, Mort is the best, I am the winner! Mort is so—owe!

Rico

What happened?

Skipper

Why, Melman, you won! And Rico’s talking now! Oh, Thank you, Doc.

King Julien

What happened to the freedom of changing? What happened to the rights of the peoples? I thought this was France!

Maurice

America.

King Julien

No, really. I seriously thought this was France. I've been looking for some decent crepes for, like, three months.

Maurice

Since when did we get four Ricos?

Hey! Baron von Greedenstein! Save some for the rest of the flock! [She uses a long pole to hold him back.]
