Zorran quotes from Tugs

Ha, Forget them; Unclean. Ugghh!

[spots the White Fleet up ahead] Ah-ha! This looks like money. Ahoy! [The White Fleet approaches Zorran] You need a tow into port? Ahoy! You there, ahead! I'm hailing you! [Zorran approaches the White Fleet] Give you a fair price! Get you into port safe... [Spooky choir plays as the White Fleet sail in between Zorran] There’s no sound! What’s going on? It can’t be! ...Ah! It’s the ghosts! It’s Big Mac’s ghost fleet! Oh no! They’re gonna get me! Oh! I'll leave you alone, lads! Don’t touch me!

I say, what's this all about? Star Fleet and Z Fleet together? Whatever next?

We're wasting time!

Captain Star

Silence!

Ten Cents' barge's the only ones gone…

Yeah, bet he knows what it’s about!

Him stealing barges. That’s what!

Cut that out about Ten Cents!

Yeah! Watch it, see?

Just careful what you say!

Captain Star

I said silence! Captain Zero and me have had a meeting. Missing barges is serious, we’re going to get to the bottom of it, understand? Captain Zero…

I know of a scheme to catch this Pirate…

Ha! I expect he knows several.

Aye, Set a crook to catch a crook!

What are you suggesting?!?

Captain Star

Quiet! We've decided to Set a trap.

Certain Barges are being rigged with flares that will Trigger off if the barge is even touched! Never mind Stolen.

Hello, hello, hello! What's all this then? What's going on?

Clear off, Zorran. It's our business.

No, it's not! Deal's a deal! Ten Cents said he'd let us in on it!

No, I never!

You lot are up to something! And anyway, you owe us for two barges of timber. Move aside, Top Hat, and let me see.

O.J

Mind your own business, Zorran!

I am. This is my business, I'm looking for my timber!

Well, it isn't here! Just back off and leave us alone. All we've got 'ere is our float for the show.

[spots Grampus and laughs maliciously] Some float! Stealing government property, eh? Nice little number, boys, very nice. That's the 3rd crime to report. Captain Zero'll tell the Navy-

Move it, Zorran! Old boy.

Er, only a game, you understand, Hercules….

I know all about your games, Zorran. Beat it! And take your driftwood with you.

Oh, I'm going to. You'll hear about it from the Navy! Don't worry.

Yes, I'm off as well…. I wasted far too much time already!

Alright, m'dears, I don't think I'll wait around for answers. I want to be in the show, today, too! You can tell me all later. Now, where's Warrior got to…?

Now listen, you two: Towing this lot's the tricky bit. Zak, move off first.

Right.

Go slow and don't take any nonsense from the Star mob. Show them explosives don't scare us. If they come too close, just-

BLOW THEM UP!!!

Yeah… but with your hooter, dummy. No silly games, okay? You don't have to be that brave.

Okay Zorran, sir.

And watch out for the Naval twerp Bluenose. Your job is to deliver that barge directly to Naval tramper, Kraka-Toa. If Bluenose gives you different orders, ignore him and refer him to me. Just keep it steady. Keep flying that danger flag! Zebedee! Next!

That Bluenose told me he was in charge and that I must obey orders.

You are; Mine, remember that.

I'll remember that, Zorran, sir….

Eat your heart out, Star Stacks. This trip's worth twenty garbage barges, ferry trips or girder tows. Heh… if we don't get blown up. Right, easy does it…

(is loading the final munitions into Kraka-Toa during night time.) I'll be glad to get rid of this lot…

Attention! Attention!

Oh no, here we go…

I'm coming alongside! Move aside! You, with the circle on your funnel, move!

(irate) Eh? What, mean me, mister, do you?

Yeah, you, mister! Move that barge! My load's first.

O.J.

You shouldn't move a barge that's being unloaded.

Get pensioned off, old timer! This is my pool, I say what goes!

O.J.

Bah…

Go and draw your pension, O.J., you're past it!

Shut it, the paddler's right. We're not moving that barge, mister!

Emergency! Emergency! Clear the area immediately!

STAY STILL, AND OBEY ORDERS!

O.J.

Move out! Move out! Save yourselves! Ten Cents, cut your barge rope, and pull free.

My barge is clear, but Bluenose is blocking the way!

I know what to do. Stay still, and don't panic!

Oh, come on, Bluenose, cast off, let's get outta here!

I can't! I CAN'T! (A big explosion comes dangerously close.) I CAN'T!

Try harder! Go on!

My engine's cut out!

O.J.! His engine's out! I'm going in to help!

Don't be a fool, Ten Cents! Get out of there!

O.J.

He's right! Move!

He's got himself into this! Leave him!

O.J.

It's too dangerous, Ten Cents!

You're coming with me, Bluenose!

Keep going, Ten Cents! Keep going! The tramper's on fire! It'll blow any second!

(Ten Cents starts pulling Bluenose away.) Don't you move me! I've got my--hic! My orders, and my orders say I am loading fuel there!

You can load all you want after I get you out of here. Hey, O.J.! What should I do with him?

O.J.

Put him at the back, out the way, we don't want any more of his orders.

Oi! This is a mutiny! Take me back immediately! Obey orders! Obey orders! Orders is orders!

Oh no! Big Mickey's dock is going up!

O.J

Move out, everyone! He's going over!

Stay where you are! I'll jib clear!

Just hope Mickey gets it right, otherwise he'll sink us all!

BIG MICKEY!

Ahh, he's done it. He's falling sideways.

HELP!

Captain Star

[narrating (TV version only)] And lying in shallow water saved Big Mickey from both fire and explosion.

That was too close for comfort!

O.J

It took real skill to make that move.

He saved us all for sure… but the fire's getting out of control!

O.J

They'll have heard the siren for sure. The Fire Tug'll reach us any minute. Just wish he were here now….

Fire Tug won't be much good… LOOK AT THAT TRAMPER!

The Aft hold has blown, now the fire will really spread.

I feel so helpless…

Cor! They were really big explosions!?

There's more to come yet! Just you wait, she was nearly fully loaded before that Naval twit arrived. What's on board'll rip her apart.

Isn't there anything we can do?

Like what, dummy? Anyway, you've done your bit. Just sit back and watch.

But it's spreading! And that means Puffa, the dockside will go up!

O.J.

You're right Ten Cents. Come on everyone, shout and warn Puffa!

Oh, look over there!

O.J.

That's all we needed! The petrol's caught fire!

And that tank's fully loaded! I must try and get it out to sea!

O.J.

Don't do it, stay back! If that blows, it'll take you with it!

Fire! Fire!

Just in time, Warrior! Use your fire hose on that barge and the oil yard, quick!

Yes, sir! Right away, sir! I'll do me' best, sir!

There's two things wrong with that order, mister. Warrior don't move fast. His lights may be on but there's no one there.

At least he's in there, Zorran.

Hey, the building's on fire now! Oh, I can't seem to stop it! It's- Oh!

Move back Warrior! Move back!

No sir, I've gotta look after Puffa. He's a mighty valuable and good friend. Got to look after you're friends you know.

Okay, Warrior. Here Zorran, give me a hand with this fire barge. We got to try and save that tramper.

Huh. Can't see this barge doing much good mister. Ha. But, you're in charge.

Go on Zorran. Show them who's a real hero.

O.J

Phew… just look at the state of the dockside!

Yeah, but that's nothing compared with what could have happened. If Sunshine and Warrior hadn't contained the fire, it could've easily spread to the city. Well done, all of ya'.

(is now on the scene, just seconds late to contribute.) Oh, dear. Seems I'm too late to save the day. What a pity!

Heh. Well, well, well! Get a drift of that, will you, lads?! Top Hat, all dressed up and nowhere to go! (He laughs mockingly, alongside Zak and Zebedee.)

Oh, good. Here comes the Coast Guard.

If you're waiting for clearance on the schooners, forget it. They're quarantined!

Oh no…

What?!

Suspected microbonic plague aboard. Sorry, fellas.

Captain Star will be pleased, I don't think.

O.J

To think how I flogged my engine to get here fast.

And all for no purpose, it turns out.

Well, I think I'll go take a look-see anyway.

You're not going back then?

Err, Zug maybe. I'll mosey around here, see if there's a breeze out in the estuary.

Don't you need me, Zorran?

Push off, Zug!

Oh… Okay, Zorran.

He's up to something. I'd like to know what. You know, I never trusted that Zorran.

O.J

Ah, Zorran will know about it for sure.

He wouldn't try and take it off him, would he?

Well, of course the villain would. Who'd see him do it out there?

O.J

Right then! Ten Cents, you and I'll go see fair play.

Aye-aye, sir!

Oh dear, I don't know…. I do believe they see themselves as Sir Francis Drake.

(Toots) Hey! Hey! Nantucket, I left you with your Quarantine flags up! Where are they, eh? Eh? You're breaking the law, you're under arrest. Get those flags up again and fast!

What's this? I didn't know he was quarantined, officer! No flags were flying at all, as you just saw!

Well that's your bad luck, Zorran. Whether you knew or not makes no difference. You're infected!

But I'm innocent! I'm completely innocent, I-

Get quarantine flags up, right now, Zorran!

You're a real villain, Dirtbucket, know that?

I wanted to get into port, didn't I?!

Yeah, and now I might get microbonic plague.

Mr. Burke, I think there might be some spots on Zorran…

I think you're right, Mr. Blair. We'll come back and check for rust later… [The Scrap Dealers Both laugh Maliciously!]

Captain Star

[narrating] Ten Cents would have been in quarantine if it haven't been for O.J. and O.J. would have been scrapped if it haven't been for Ten Cents. As for Zorran (short chuckle), he saw out his full term.

What are you doing with that? We're all on Log Detail. Remember?!

Oh, heh heh, er, sorry Zorran, I did remember. Captain Zero, er said to take it to the Breakers Yard on my way.

On your way?! It's a mile further up river. I've been waiting for you like I've anchored 'ere til' I rust!

Oh, yeah, heh heh, but, We've gotta' do what the Captain says Zorran. Unless they get it today, they won't take it. They've a lot of breaking up to do.

Including You, if you don't get moving!

It- It- It's blocked the river!

Course it's blocked the river, you idiot!

I'm trapped! This side. what can I do?

Wait there and claim salvage. [chuckles]

But…help could be ages getting here!

You've got company. All the Stars are on your side. I've had plenty of time to see who was there, haven't I? That means Z-Stacks have got all the harbour to ourselves, haven't we? Captain Zero will be pleased!

[now scared] D-Don't leave me here!

Sorry, Zug. We'll have to manage without you!
