Poly:
Okay, okay, enough with the pampering. You need to go and help the queen.

Dolittle:
There are things I no longer do: work with humans or leave the house.

Jip:
Or bathe. [covers his nose]

Yoshi:
Oh, exercise.

Cub:
Express emotional vulnerability.

Poly:
Wake up, John! If the queen dies, the Treasury takes the deed and we lose this house.

Dolittle:
You're talking out of your tail feathers, Poly. The deed was for life. Last time I checked, I was very much alive. [about to drink his tea]

Poly:
The queen's life, John, not yours. [Dolittle spits his tea]

Dab-Dab:
Look at that. It just rolls off my back. [she shakes the tea out of her feathers]

Dolittle:
I knew I shouldn't have let monkeys proofread the contract. Elliot, Elsie, you are FIRED! [the monkeys gasp]

Poly:
It gets worse. We'll be thrown out of these gates right in the middle of HUNTING SEASON!

Chee-Chee:
WHAT?!

Dolittle:
No no no. Breathe, Chee-Chee.

Dab-Dab:
We get kicked out if the queen dies?

Chee-Chee:
We're gonna be hunted!

Dolittle:
Everybody calm down! [gives Chee-Chee a paper bag and Chee-Chee breathes in it] Look at the state of him now. Hmm!

Poly:
Fear not, I have an inn at, uh, Regent's Park Zoo. Everyone pack your bags! [Chee-Chee's paper bag explodes]

Dolittle:
Uh-uh!

Poly:
You help the queen or we are leaving.

Dolittle:
You're bluffing.

Poly:
Don't make me count.

Dolittle:
Don't make me count.

Poly:
1...

Dolittle:
3!

Poly:
2...

Dolittle:
[frustrated] D'OH! Alright! I'll do it. [the animals cheer]

Dab-Dab:
Right, let's get you ready to go, honey.

Dolittle:
I'll go as I am.

Poly:
[flies by] Not looking like that.

Dolittle:
Just grab my doctor's bag.

Poly:
[whispers offscreen] Get him!

Jip:
[trips Dolittle] Apologies, Doc.

Chee-Chee:
[catches Dolittle in his arms] Hold still now.

Dolittle:
[angrily] Take your paws off me!
