[on King Gorilla] He looks like a gorilla suit with nobody in it—wearing David Byrne's Stop Making Sense suit.

We are getting hammered out there! Sgt. Hatred does not share Brock's aversion to firearms, and now even their robot's packing heat! We need body armor.
Well, what's that you're wearing?

I had to buy this myself online! I'm out-of-pocket an AT-AT Walker, two Greedos, and a Landspeeder. And not everyone here has Star Wars duplicates to sell on eBay. Half these guys weren't even born when Empire came out, and the rest are barely making minimum wage!
HHenchman
You guys get paid?

And another thing—retractable wings. I mean, this is ridiculous! These things are just big, clumsy, orange kill-me signs in the battlefield, and it's not like it's any better when we get back here. Every doorway in this cocoon is tapered at the arch.
Well, we're not changing any doors, but we'll take the wing thing under consideration.

I have a better solution, and I've brought some visual aids. Big-screen! [A big monitor is lowered, giving the following presentation] Gentlemen, and lady, I give you the henchman of the future. The Mighty Monarch Mark-V Henchsuit. Made of flexible poly-alloy, they are lightweight, fireproof, and bulletproof. In keeping with our insect theme, the turbo-hydraulic exoskeleton increases the wearer's strength and agility tenfold. But it's not all about defense. The Mark-V also boasts an impressive array of offensive weapons, including grappling spears, gas-propelled rockets and 25-millimeter heat-seeking, fire-and-forget missiles all controlled via heads-up display built right into the state-of-the-art helmet.
Which reminds me—people, I'm told you're using too much bandwidth, so if you're not using the Internet for official...

Whoa! Whoa! Hey, hey! Wait a minute! What about my Mighty Monarch Mark-V Henchsuit?!
Oh, come on, 21. If half that stuff even exists yet, it would cost a fortune.
2#21
Well then why don't you send us out to rob a bank or ransom the moon or something! Aren't you guys supposed to be supervillains?
We have a more...specialized practice. Look, we just can't afford it right now, okay?
[coming in on his "Butter-Glider"] Check out what I just bought!
Honey, they're henchmen. You don't explain to them, they do your bidding. When you say "jump", they say, "what shark?"
Don't you have one of them fancy machines that can just look inside him, you know, like...with computers?
You mean an MRI.
Oh.
But he's right. We need to see inside Rusty's brain, and to do that, you know what we need?
An aeronaut! And an armored bear!
A submarine!
Also good.
We've got one—the X-3
Wait, wait, wait, wait. What are you— oh, geez! No! Come on, not that old cliche.
Cliche nothing! It is a classic!
Innerspace is not a classic!
That's, like, a great film!
Then why don't they make it on DVD, huh, fella?
They totally do. And, whatever—I was talking about Fantastic Voyage anyway!
No way! A thousand times no! I’m not letting those clowns shrink my 40 million dollar secretly funded nuclear submarine to go fight the fucking cavity creeps!
Then when our dad dies, are you guys prepare to adopt us?
No, but I'm considering a extremely late-term abortion! Samson! What part of secret underground headquarters does that square-head of yours fail to grasp?!
Look, they live next door, what am I supposed to do?
Wipe their pink little minds and send them back home, like I told you!
They discover us every other week. I can’t keep doing that, its starting to make them buggy. Listen to this. Dean, what day is today?
Sagittarius
Goooooood! Now Hank, what color is my tongue?
It’s kind of... Wednesday! Like a light Wednesday.
[pointing loaded gun at Billy and White] I MIGHT BE HAVING A HEART ATTACK! I am over-weight, over fifty, and I am speedballing tranq darts and pure adrenaline!
