Madagascar Script - Dialogue Transcript

Voila! Finally, the Madagascar script is here for all you fans of the movie featuring Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe,and Gloria the Hippo. This puppy is a transcript that was painstakingly transcribed using the screenplay and/or viewings of the movie to get the dialogue. I know, I know, I still need to get the cast names in there and all that jazz, so if you have any corrections, feel free to drop me a line. At least you'll have some Madagascar quotes (or even a monologue or two) to annoy your coworkers with in the meantime, right?

And swing on back to Drew's Script-O-Rama afterwards -- because reading is good for your noodle. Better than Farmville, anyway.

Madagascar Script

  
  
Surprise!

  
Alex! Do not interrupt me
when I'm daydreaming!

  
When the zebra's in the
zone, leave him alone.

  
Come on Marty, just wanted
to wish you a happy birthday!

  
Hey man, thanks.

  
I got something stuck in my
teeth. It's driving me crazy!

  
Can you help me out here? Please?
You came to the right place, my friend.

  
Doctor Marty D.D.S. is in the house!

  
Please hop on top of my sterilized
examination table, if you may.

  
I don't see anything.
It's on the left.

  
Okay, just don't talk with your mouth full.

  
Aha.. Right in here.

  
What a hack is this doing in there?
Happy Birthday!

  
Awww.. Hey.. Thanks man. It was behind
the tooth! You're all right.

  
These aren't on the shelf yet.
Here, check it out.

  
Look at that. Ooh.. look at that.

  
Look at that, it's snowing.

  
Ten years old, huh?
A decade!

  
Double digits. A big 1-O.

  
You don't like it?
No, no. It's great!

  
You hate it. I shoulda
gotten you the Alex alarm clock.

  
That's the one, that's the big seller.
No, no. The present is great, really.

  
It's just that another year's come and gone
and I'm still doing the same old thing.

  
Stand over here, trot over there. Eat
some grass. Walk back over here.

  
I see your problem.
Maybe I should go to law school.

  
You just need to break out
of that boring routine.

  
How?
Throw out the old that,

  
get out there, who knows
what you're gonna do!

  
Make it up as you go along! Ad lib,
improvise, on the fire! Boom,boom,boom..

  
Really? You know, make
it fresh! Fresh? Okay.

  
I could do fresh.
Works for me.

Not for me. I'm callin' in sick.
What?

  
I found another brown spot
on my shoulder. Right here!

  
See? Right there! You see?
Melman, you know it's all in your head. Hm?

  
Phil. Wake up, you filthy monkey.

  
Oh I'm gonna be fresh.
Straight out the ground.

Check out the Zebra takin'
care of biz'... that's right!

  
Just smile and wave, boys.
Smile and wave.

  
Kowalski, target report.
We're only 500 feet from the main sewer line.

  
And the bad news?
We've broken our last shovel.

  
Right. Rico, you're on litter patrol.

  
We need shovels and find more popsickle sticks.

  
We don't want to risk another cave-in.

  
And me, Skipper?
I want you to look cute and cuddly, private.

  
Today we're gonna blow this dump.

  
Yeah! You don't see that on Animal Planet!

  
Well show's over, folks!
Thanks for coming!

  
I hope you thought it was fresh!
I'll be here all week.

  
In fact, I'll be here for my whole life. 365 days a year,

  
including Christmas, Hanukkah, Halloween, Kwanzaa.

  
Please don't forget to never spay or neuter your pets.

  
And tip your cabbie, because he's broke.

  
You, quadruped.
Sprechen Sie English?

  
I sprechen.
What continent is this?

  
Manhattan.
Hoover Dam! We're still in New York.

  
Abort! Dive, dive, dive!
Hey! You in the tux! Wait a minute!

  
What are you guys doing?
We're digging to Antarctica.

  
Anhootica?
Can you keep a secret, my monochromatic friend?

  
Do you ever see any penguins
running free around New York city?

  
Of course not. We don't belong
here, it's just not natural.

  
This is all some kind of
wacked out conspiracy.

  
We're going to the wide
open spaces of Antarctica.

  
To the wild!

  
The wild? You could actually
go there? Sounds great...

  
Hey! Hold up!
Where is this place?

  
Tell me where it is!
You didn't see anything.

  
Right?
Yes, sir.

  
Uhh. uhh.. Sorry. No, sir.

  
.. for his final appearance of the day...

  
.. the King of New York city..
Alex the Lion!

  
Thank you! Thank you very much!

  
You guys are great.
You're great crowd.

  
Give yourself a hand. Huh? Thank you.

  
Thank you! Oh well, thank you!
Awww.., that's too kind, too kind...

  
Underpants!

  
Everybody get home safe.

  
This is the life.

  
That's the spot.
Oh, I'm in heaven.

  
Whoo, It's Marty's birthday!
Open it, just open it!

  
What is it? What is it?
Come on, open it up!

  
Yeah! Thermometer! Thanks.

  
I love it Melman, I love it!

  
Yeah, I wanted to give
you something personal.

  
You know, that was my
first rectal thermometer. Mother..!

  
Happy birthday to you!

  
You live in a zoo,

  
You look like a monkey,

  
And you smell like one too.

  
I say...

  
Aww.. well, now.. you guys are just
embarrassing me.. and yourselves!

  
What are you talking about?
We've worked on that all week.

  
Let's go, let's make a wish babycakes.

  
Come on, what did you wish for?
No, can't tell you that.

  
Come on, tell!
No sirrey, I'm telling you!

  
It is bad luck! You want some bad luck?

  
I'll blab it out, but if you wanna be safe...

  
Ah, Marty would you just tell us?

  
I mean really, what could happen?
Okay.

  
I wished, that I could go to the wild!
The wild! Wow!

  
I told you it was bad luck!

  
The wild? Are you nuts? That is
the worst idea, I've ever heard.

  
It's unsanitary.
The penguins are going, so why can't I?

  
The penguins are psychotic.
Come on! Just imagine going back to nature.

  
Back to your roots, clean air, wide open spaces!
Well I hear they have wide open spaces in Connecticut.

  
Connecticut?
Yeah, what you got to do

  
is you gotta go over Grand Central.

  
And then you gotta take
the metro north train. North?

  
So one could take the train?
Just hypothetically.

  
Marty, come on! What would
Connecticut have to offer us?

  
Lyme disease.
Thank you, Melman.

  
No, no, really I just wanna...
You certainly don't have this in the wild,

  
this is highly refined type of food thing,
that you do not find in the wild.

  
You ever thought it might be
more to life, than steak.. Alex?

  
He didn't mean that baby.
No, no, no.

  
Doesn't it bother you guys that you don't
know anything about, life outside of this zoo?

  
Na ahh... mm..
Nope.

  
Well.. I mean.. Come on..
That's just one subject.

  
You got a ah.. you got a little smutz
right there on yer...

  
Thanks guys. Thanks for the party.

  
It was great! Really.

  
What's eating him?
Maybe you should talk to him, Alex.

  
You know go off for there and get him a little pep talk.
Hey, I don't get snow globe, I can't top that.

  
Alex.
I can see where this is going.

  
It is getting late. I guess I'm gonna...

  
Come on, he's your best friend.
All right, all right. Okay.

  
G'night Marty!
.. night Gloria.

  
Aaahhh... What a day.

  
I mean it just really,
really I mean I tell you,

  
just doesn't get any better than this, you know.

  
It just did! Even the star's out.

  
You're not gonna find a star like that in the wild.

  
Helicopter.

  
Marty, buddy, listen. Everybody
has days when they think

  
the grass might be greener somewhere else.

  
Alex, look at me.

  
I'm ten years old, my life is half over.

  
And I don't even know if I'm black with
white stripes or white with black stripes.

  
Marty, I'm thinking of a song.
Alex please, not now.

  
Yes, it's a wonderful song.
I think you're familiar with it.

  
Oh no!

  
I'm not listening.

  
Start spreading the news...
I don't know you.

  
I'm leaving today...
He's funny. Who is that?

  
Come on, you know,
you know the words.

  
Two little words.
New York.

  
New York!

  
Shut up! Shut up!
Hey! I'm sleeping here!

  
We're not all nocturnal you know!
I'll knock yer "turnal" right off, pal!

  
Yeah, you and what army, stripes?
You mess with him, you mess with me, Howard!

  
See? Mr. Grumpy Stripes.

  
We make a great team. Two of us.
We sure do. No doubt about it!

  
What are you gonna do? Just go
running off to the wild by yourself?

  
No.
Good.

  
You and me! Let's go.
What?

  
The wild! Come on,
you and me together!

  
It's a straight shot down
Fifth avenue to Grand Central.

  
We'll grab a train,
we'll head north!

  
We'll be back by morning, no one will ever know!
You're joking, right?

  
Yeah! I'm joking, of course
I'm joking! Give me a break!

  
Like we're gonna get a train?

  
Don't do that, you really
had me worried there.

  
Well, I guess I'll hit the sack.
Yeah, me too. I'll need the rest of my voice for tomorrow.

  
It's seniors day, you know.
I have to roar extra loud.

  
Give them a little jolt! You
know what I'm talking about?

  
Good night, alley Al.

  
Arghhh.. They forgot to turn off the ambience again!
Don't worry, that's cool.

  
You know, I got it.

  
Much better.

  
Come on now baby. My little fillet.

  
My little fillet mignon with a little fat
around the edges, I like that.

  
I like a little fat on my steak,
my sweet juicy steak.

  
You are a rare delicacy.
Alex? Alex. Alex!

  
What?
You suck your thumb?

  
What is it, Melman?
Okay, okay.

  
You know about the blood infection,
and I have to get up every two hours.

  
Well I got up to pee, and I
looked over in Marty's pen,

  
which I usually don't do, I don't know why
but I did, and this time I looked over...

  
What Melman, what's going on?
It's Marty. He's gone.

  
Gone?

  
What do you mean, gone?

  
How long he has been working on this?

  
Marty? Marty?

  
He wouldn't fit down there.
Marty? Marty? Marty?

  
This doesn't make any sense.
Where would he go?

  
Connecticut!
He wouldn't.

  
Oh no! What are we gonna do?

  
We gotta, we gotta call somebody!

  
Hello? Get the Missing Animals
and hurry! We've got a lost Zebra,

  
probably on the way to Connecticut
by now, and we're gonna need...

  
Hello? Hello?
Wait a second. We can't call the people.

  
They'll be really mad! They'll get
Marty transferred for good!

  
You don't bite the hand that feeds you.
I know that's right.

  
We gotta go after him.
Go after him?

  
He's not thinking straight. We gotta stop him
from making the biggest mistake of his life!

  
He's probably out there
lost and cold. Confused.

  
Poor little guy.

  
Melman, come on!
You know, maybe one of us should wait here,

  
in case he comes back.
Oh no, not now.

  
This is an intervention Melman, we all gotta go!

  
What's the fastest way to Grand Central?
You should take Lexington.

  
Melman!
Okay. We.. We should take Lexington.

  
What about Park?
No, Park goes two ways, you can't time the lights.

  
I heard Tom Wolfe is speaking at Lincoln Center.

  
Well of course we're going
to throw a poo at him!

  
I knew we should've taken Park.

  
Are you sure this is the fastest way to Grand Central station?
I don't know, that's what Melman said!

  
Hey you guys! That room has some
nifty little sinks you can wash up in, and look!

  
Free mints!

  
This isn't a field trip, Melman!
This is an urgent mission

  
to save Marty from throwing
his life away! Now.. Where's the train?

  
Ah! Here it comes.

  
What did Marty say to you?
I asked you to talk to him!

  
I did!I did! I don't understand!
He said: Let's go!

  
And I said: What are you crazy?
And he says: I'm ten years old!

  
And then that he has
black and white stripes...

  
What you gotta do, is you go
straight back down West 42nd.

  
It's now on your left
after Vanderbilt.

  
You hit the Chrysler building,
you've gone too far.

  
Thanks a lot, officer.

  
Hey! Wait for the light! Freak.

  
Yeah, that's right. Zebra.
Right in front of me.

  
Can I shoot it?
Negative.

  
Than I'm gonna need some back up.

  
Oh! Knicks lost again.
Ahh.. What are you gonna do..

  
Did that just say "Grand Central
Station" or "my aunt's constipation"?

  
This is it!

  
Grand Central Station!
It's grand and it's central.

  
Move aside..
This is an emergency situation! Don't panic!

  
Chill out! It's not
that big emergency.

  
How do you like that!

  
Lady, what is wrong with you?

  
Ow! Get a grip on yourselves people!
You're a bad kitty!

  
Dagnabbit! I missed the express!

  
Looks like I'm gonna have
to take the Stamford local.

  
I've got him!I've got him!
He's got him!

  
He's got him!
He's got him!

  
I got something for you!

  
I'm okay, I'm okay.

  
What are you guys doing here?

  
Oh, I'm so glad we found you.
We were so worrying about you!

  
Don't worry, I'm fine, I'm fine.
Look at me, I'm fine.

  
You're fine? Oh, he's fine! Oh, great.

  
Hey, you hear that, Marty's fine.
That's good to know.

  
Cause I was just wondering...

  
How could you do this to us, Marty?
I thought we were your friends!

  
What's a big deal! I was
gonna back in the morning!

  
Don't you ever do this
again. Do you hear me?

  
Do you hear him?
Guys, we're running out of time!

  
Oh Melman, you broke their clock?
Don't you ever ever do this again!

  
Come here!

  
We've been ratted out, boys.

  
Cute and cuddly boys.
Cute and cuddly.

  
If you have any poo, fling it now!

  
It's the Man.

  
Good evening, officers!
No, no, no.. you don't talk now, okay?

  
You're not so good with the putting the words
together and their coming out, good thing.

  
You can thss!

  
Hey! How you're doing? Yeah!

  
You know what, everything's cool,
we just have a little situation here.

  
Little internal situation. Actually
my friend just went a little crazy.

  
It happens to everybody.
The city gets to us all.

  
Just went a little cuckoo in the head.
Hey! Don't be calling me cuckoo in the head!

  
Just shush!
I will handle this!

  
I got him!

  
Would you give a guy a break?

  
We're just gonna take my little friend here
home and forget this ever happened.

  
All right? No harm, no foul.

  
Oh, no, no, no. Hey, it's cool!
It's me, Alex the lion.. From the Zoo.

  
What's the matter with them?

  
Wow! I feel really, really weird.

  
Hey! I love you guys.

  
I love you so much.

  
Last night dramatic incident
at Central Grand station

  
was an example of animal rights
whackos have been shouting for years...

  
The animals clearly don't belong in captivity.

  
Now they're to be sent back
to their natural habitat,

  
where they will live their lives in the
freedom they so clearly desire.

  
Hey, little help.
He's awake! He's awake!

  
Oh, man!

  
Oh my head!

  
Where? What?
I'm in the box!

  
Oh no! No no!
Not the box!

  
Oh no, they can't transfer me! Not me!

  
I can't breathe.
I can't breathe.

  
Darkness creeping in.

  
Can't breathe.
I can't breathe!

  
Walls closing in around me!

  
So alone, so alone.
Alex!

  
Alex are you there?
Marty?

  
Yeah! Talk to me, buddy!
Marty! You're here!

  
What's going on? Are you okay?
This doesn't look good, Marty.

  
Alex? Marty? Is that you?
Gloria! You're here too!

  
I am loving the sound of your voice!
What is going on?

  
We're all in crates.
Oh, no!

  
Oh, sleeping just knocks me out.
Melman!

  
Is that Melman?
Are you okay?

  
Yeah, I'm fine. I often doze off
while I'm getting an MRI.

  
Melman, you're not getting an MRI.

  
CAT scan?
No! No CAT scan!

  
It's a transfer! It's a zoo transfer!
Zoo transfer! Oh, no.

  
I can't be transferred, I have an
appointment with doctor Goldberg at 5.

  
Melman!
There are prescriptions,that have to be filled.

  
Calm down, Melman.
No other zoo can afford my medical care!

  
Melman!
I am not going HMO.

  
Take it easy Melman. It's gotta be okay,
we are going to be okizey.

  
No Marty, we're not gonna be okizey.

  
Now because of you we're ruined!
Because of me? I fail to see how this is my fault.

  
You're kidding, right Marty?
You! You ticked off the people!

  
You bit the hand Marty,
you bit the hand.

  
I don't know who I am,
I don't know who I am.

  
I gotta go find myself in a wild!
Hey! I did not ask you to come after me.

  
Did I?
He does have a point.

  
What?
I did say we should stay at the zoo,

  
but you guys!
Melman, just shut it!

  
You're the one that suggested this
whole idea to happen in the first place.

  
Alex, leave Melman out of this please.
Thank you, Gloria. Besides Alex,

  
it is not my fault that we're transferred!
Melman, shut it.

  
Does anybody feel nauseous?
I feel nauseous.

  
Melman, you always feel nauseous.

All righty boys, fun is over.

  
Gloria!
Alex!

  
Marty?
Marty!

  
You know, I don't really have
anything on me right now.

  
I'll have to get you later.

  
To you too!

  
Marty! Marty!

  
Alex!

  
Marty!
Alex!

  
Marty!
Al!

  
Marty!
Alex?

  
Marty!
Oh sugar, honey, ice tea.

  
Marty! I'm gonna kill you!
Hey! Hold on! Hold on!

  
Look at us! We're all here
together safe and sound.

  
Yeah, here we are.

  
Where exactly is here?

  
San Diego.
San Diego?

  
White sandy beaches, cleverly
simulated natural environment,

  
wide open enclosures, I'm telling
you this could be the San Diego zoo.

  
Complete with fake rocks.
Wow! That looks real.

  
San Diego? What could be
worse than San Diego?

  
I don't know, this
place is crack I like it!

  
Oh, I could hang here, I could hang here.

  
I'm gonna kill you, Marty!
Take it easy! Take it easy!

  
And then strangle you!
Calm down!

  
Then bury you,dig you up and clone you,
and kill all your clones..

  
Twenty second time out?
.. and then,I'll never talk to you again.

  
Stop it! Look, We're just
gonna find the people

  
get checked in and have
this mess straightened out!

  
Oh great, this is just great. San Diego!

  
Now I have to compete with Shamu
and his smug little grin!

  
I can't top that. Can't top it!

  
I'm ruined! I'm gone!
I'm out of the business!

  
It's your fault, Marty! You've ruined me!
Come on, Alex. Do you honestly think

  
I intended all of this to happen?
You want me to say that I'm sorry?

  
Is that what you want? Okay, I'm...

  
He just shushed me!
Marty look, just gotta be just a little bit more...

  
Shush!
Don't you shush me!

  
Do you hear that?
Don't you hear that?

  
I hear it now!
When there's music, there's people.

  
We go right to the head honcho.
A sidewalk would be nice.

  
Yeah, what a dump!
They should call it the San Di-Lame-O zoo!

  
First they tell you hey! We gotta
this great open plan thing.

  
Let the animals run wild!
Next thing you know...

  
flowers in your hair, and everybody's
hugging everybody.

  
This place kind of grows on you!
This way, guys! Come on!

  
Oh, no!

  
Okay, let's make a good
impression on the people.

  
Smiles everyone, let's get it together.
Is that the best you can do, Melman?

  
Oh, I'm not smiling, it's gas.
Okay well great. Let's make gas look good.

  
It's not people. It's animals!
California animals!

  
This is like a puppy party!

  
I like to move it move it!
I like to move it move it!

  
You like to...

  
Move it!

  
I like to move it move it!
I like to move it move it!

  
I like to move it move it!
You like to...

  
Move it!

  
I like to move it move it!
You like to move it move it!

  
She likes to move it move it!
We like to...

  
Move it!

  
All girls all over the world!

  
Original King Julian! What a girl's man!

  
I love all them girls I love to move them body!

  
When you move your body,
you move it nice and sweet and sassy.

  
What kind of zoo is this?
I just saw 26 blatant health code violations.

  
I'm loving San Diego, this place is off to the chizain!
Twenty-seven!

  
We should've brought chips and dip!

  
Wait, where's Alex?
What happened to him,

  
he was right behind us. Were he right behind us?
I don't know where he's at, but he's missing one hack of a party!

  
The Foosa! The Foosa!
The Foosa are attacking!

  
I hate spider webs.
Yeah, thanks a lot, guys.

  
Thanks for waiting up.
I really appreciate it.

  
Hey hi. We just got in from New York
and we're looking for a supervisor,

  
because we've been sitting on
that beach back there for hours.

  
And nobody's even bothered to show up.

  
I don't know how things
normally run around here,

  
but obviously there's been some
sort of major screw up, which is cool.

  
So if you just point us towards
to the administrative offices, or just uh...

  
Well, howdy do?

  
Spider! Spider on my back!

  
Maurice, did you see that?
He scared the Foosa away.

  
Get it! Get it! Get it!

  
Where did he go?

  
Where did he go?

  
King Julian, what are they?
What are they?

  
They are aliens. Savage aliens
from the savage future.

  
They've come to kill us!
And take our women!

  
And our precious metals!

  
Get up, Mort. Do not be near
the King's feet, okay?

  
Shh! We're hiding. Be quiet
everyone. Including me.

  
Shh! Who's making that
noise? Oh, it's me again.

  
Come on boys!
Stop it! Enough!

  
I think you got it.
I thing she got it.

  
Is it still on me? I hate spiders.
That's okay, she's gone.

  
They are savages!
Tonight we die.

  
The feet! I told you!
Didn't I tell him about the feet?

  
He did tell you about the feet.

  
Wait. I have a plan!
Really?

  
I have devised a cunning test.

  
To see whether these are savage killers.

  
No!

  
Hi there!
You let me handle it.

  
Alex handles it.
Marty does nothing.

  
Hi there!

  
Oh, sorry. No, no!
Oh Alex, what did you do?

  
Stop, stop. It's okay.

  
It's okay. I'm just a
silly, just a silly lion.

  
Oh, you poor little baby, did
that big mean lion scare you?

  
He did? He's a big bad
old puddy tad, isn't he?

  
Come on, mama hold you.

  
They are so cute from a reasonable distance.

  
You're sweetest little thing,
I just wanna dunk him in my coffee.

  
They are just a bunch of pansies.
I don't know, there's still something

  
about that one with the crazy
hairdo that I find suspicious.

  
Nonsense, Maurice! Come on everybody!
Let's go and meet the pansies!

  
Presenting your royal highness our illustrious
King Julian the 13 self proclaimed

  
Lord of the Lemur etc. etc.
Hurray everybody.

  
He's got style!

  
What's he like, King of the guinea pigs?

  
I think it's a squirrel.

  
Welcome, giant pansies! Please
feel free to bask in my glow!

  
Definitely a squirrel.
Yep, a squirrel.

  
We thank you with enormous gratitude
for chasing away the Foosa.

  
The Who-sa?
The Foosa.

  
They're always annoying us by
trespassing, interrupting our parties,

  
and ripping our limbs off.
Yes, sounds good. Look, we're just

  
We're just trying to find where the people are.
Oh, my! What big teeth you have! Man!

  
Shame on you, Maurice! Don't you see
that you've insulted the freak?

  
You must tell me, who the hack are you?
I'm Alex. The Alex.

  
And this is Gloria, Marty and Melman.
And just where are you giants from?

  
We're from New York and we...
All hail the New York Giants!

  
New York Giants!

  
What are we doing, some
sort of inbreeding program?

  
I say we just gotta ask these
bozos where the people are.

  
Excuse me, we bozos
have the people of course.

  
Hey, the bozos have the people!
Oh. Well. Great! Good!

  
They're up there.

  
Don't you love the people?
Not a very lively bunch though.

  
So do you have any live people?
No. Only dead ones.

  
I mean if we had a lot alive people here,
it wouldn't be called 'The Wild', would it?

  
The wild?

  
Hold up there a second... a fuzzbucket...

  
You mean like the "living in mud hut,
wipe yourself with leaf" type wild?

  
Who wipes?

  
Would you excuse me for a moment?

  
Get me out of here!
We gotta get out of here!

  
Alex!
Help!

  
What are you doing?
I'm swimming back to New York!

  
I know my chances are slim, but I have to try!

  
You can't swim!
I said:"My chances are slim"!

  
Nature! It's all over me! Get it off!
I can't see! I can't see!

  
I can see!

  
Okay look, there's obviously
just been a little mistake.

  
I'm sure the people didn't dump us here on purpose.

  
As soon as they realize what happened,
they will come looking for us, right?

  
Yeah, right.

  
You know something?
I bet they are already on their way.

  
2500 MILES SOUTH

  
Well boys, it's gonna be
ice cold sushi for breakfast.

  
Rico!

  
Well, since I'm doomed to die
on this forsaken island,

  
I, Melman Mankowitz being of
sound mind and unsound body

  
have divided my estate equally
among the three of you.

  
Oh, sorry Alex.
Hey! A latrine. Nice work, Melman. Outdoor plumbing.

  
No, it's not a latrine, it's a grave.

  
You sent Melman to his grave, are you happy?
Oh, come on. This is not the end.

  
This is the whole new beginning!

  
This could be the best thing that's ever happened to us!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

  
This is not the best thing that's ever happened to us!
Yeah! You've abused the power of the birthday wish

  
and brought this bad luck on all of us.

  
Why did you tell your wish?
You're not supposed to do that!

  
Wait a minute, I didn't want to tell you. Remember?

  
You guys made me tell you.

  
Besides, this isn't bad luck, this is good luck.

  
Look around. There's no fences,
no schedules, this place is beautiful!

  
OK! OK! I've had enough of this...

  
This is your side of the island,
and this is our side of the island.

  
That is the bad side where you can prance
and skip around like a magical pixie horse.

  
And do whatever the hack you
wanna do all day long. And this,

  
this is the good side of the island, for those

  
who love New York and care about going home.

  
Come on.
No, no. Back, back. Back!

  
You know what, this isn't good.
Okay! You all have your side,

  
and I'll have mine. And if you
need me, I'll be over here.

  
On the fun side of the island.
Having a good old time!

  
This is the fun side! This is the fun side!
We're all gonna have a great time

  
surviving until we go home! I love
this side! This side is the best!

  
That side stinks! You're on
the Jersey side of this cesspool!

  
Well now what do we do?
Don't worry Melman I have a plan to get us rescued.

  
Can't wait to see that look on
Marty's face when he sees this!

  
Just look at him, he's helpless without us.

  
Shut up, Spalding!

  
I've been standing here for hours man!

  
How long do I have to pose like this?

  
She is finito!

  
I defy any rescue boat within a
million miles to miss this baby!

  
When the moment is right, we will
ignite the Beacon of the Liberty!

  
And be rescued from this awful nightmare!

  
What do you think? Pretty cool, ha?

  
How's the liberty fire going, Melman?

  
Great! Idiot.
I heard that.

  
Why can't we just borrow some of Marty's fire?

  
That's wild fire! We're not
using wild fire on Lady Liberty!

  
Now rub, Melman!
I've been doing, I can't!

  
I can't! I can't do it!
I can't do it!

  
Fire. Fire!

  
Fire! Fire!

  
Fire!
No, no!

  
Fire!

  
Jump! Alex, jump!

  
Don't worry, cats always
land on their... face?

  
Man, what kind of cat are you?

  
You maniac! You burned it up!

  
Darn you! Darn you all to hack!

  
Can we go to the fun side now?

  
Everybody calm down!
Come on. Into your chairs.

  
Everybody please calm down.

  
You over here and you over there.

  
FASTEN SEAT BELTS

  
Calm down people, okay?

  
Now! Presenting your royal highness, the illustrious..
bla, bla.. you know.. etc. etc. Hurray, let's go.

  
Now everybody! We all have
great curiosity about our guests.

  
The New York Giants. Yes, Willy.

  
I like them.
I like them, I like them.

  
I liked them first before
I even met them I liked them.

  
Yes, yes.
You have them compare to how much I like them.

  
Ah shut up, you're so annoying!

  
Now! For as long as you can remember

  
we have been attacked and
eaten by the dreaded Foosa.

  
The Foosa!
The Foosa are attacking!

  
TO SERVE LEMUR

  
It's a good book!

  
Please, please. Maurice.
Shh! Quiet!

  
Come on you all! They ain't
attacking us this very instant!

  
So my genious plan is this.

  
We will make the New York Giants
our friends. And keep them close.

  
Then with Mr. Alex protecting us, we will be safe

  
and never have to worry about
the dreaded Foosa! Ever again!

  
I thought of that!
I thought of that! Yes! Me!

  
Hold on, hold on everybody.
I'm just thinking now.

  
I mean does anyone wonder why the
Foosa was so scared of Mr. Alex?

  
I mean... Maybe we should be scared too!

  
What if Mr. Alex is even worse than the Foosa?

  
I'm telling you that dude
just gives me the heebiedabajeebies.

  
Maurice, you did not raise your hand.

  
Therefore your heinous comment will
be stricken from the record.

  
Does anyone else have the heebiejeebies?

  
No! Good. So shut up!

  
When the New York Giants wake up,

  
we will make sure, that
they wake up in paradise.

  
Now who'd like a cookie?

  
HELP

  
Yo Al... Melman and Gloria are over
there having a good time.

  
There's room on the fun side for one more.
No thanks.

  
Look, I've been thinking.

  
Maybe if you give this place
a chance I don't know.

  
You might even enjoy yourself.
Marty, I'm tired. I'm hungry.

  
I just wanna go home.

  
Could you just give it a chance? Think about it.

  
It really isn't the fun side without you.

  
HELL

  
NO SOLICITING

  
Shh! It's him! Who is it?
It's the pizza man. Who the hack do you think it is?

  
Yes? Can I help you?
Can I come to the fun side?

  
Beg your pardon?
You know, I've been kind of a jerk, Marty.

  
But I've been thinking about
what you said and... I'm sorry.

  
Welcome to Casa del Wild! Take
a load off! Hey,hey.. wipe your feet.

  
WILD SWEET WILD

  
Alex!
Mi casa, is su casa!

  
Very impressive.
Hey, have a drink!

  
It's on the house!
This is sea water!

  
Oh, you don't swallow it. It's just
temporary till the plumbing's done.

  
Hey, you all look hungry. How would
you like some of nature's goodness?

  
You have food?
The fun side special, coming up!

  
Seaweed on a stick!

  
Seaweed?
On a stick!

  
You don't love it till you try it!

  
So good.
Well thanks!

  
Does kind of hit the spot, doesn't it?

  
Well maybe it could use a little lemon.

  
No, it's great.
It's really great.

  
Doesn't get any better than this.
Oh.. But it does! Check this out!

  
Wow! Would you look at that.
It's like billions and billions of helicopters.

  
It's a shooting star. Make a wish! Quick!
How about a thick juicy steak?

  
You know what Alex? I promise you I'm gonna
find you a steak tomorrow that kills you.

  
Thanks, Marty.
It's getting late. I guess I'm gonna...

  
I think I'm gonna hit the sack too.
Sweet dreams everyone.

  
Alex!

  
What are you doing?
... 27, 28, 29, 30.

  
Thirty. Thirty black and
only twenty-nine white.

  
Looks like you're black with white stripes
after all. Dilemma solved. Good night.

  
You see Maurice. Mr. Alex
was grooming his friend.

  
He's clearly a tender loving thing.

  
How can you have the
heebiejeebies for Mr. Alex. Look at him.

  
He's so cute and plushy.
I don't think he was grooming him, Julian.

  
Looked more like he was tasting him to me.
Suit yourself, no matter. I don't care.

  
Soon we will put my excellent plan to action.

  
All we have to do is wait
until they're deep in their sleep.

  
How long is this going to take?!

  
ANTARCTICA

  
Well, this sucks.

  
Wake up, Mr. Alex.

  
Wake up, Mr. Alex.
Rise and shining.

  
Wakey, wakey Mr. Alex!
Wake up, Alex!

  
You suck your thumb?

  
What a hack is going on?

  
What is this?

  
Don't be alarm, giant freaks.
While you were asleep,

  
we simply took you, to our
little corner of heaven.

  
Welcome to Madagascar!
Mada-who-ah?

  
What?
No, not who-ah... ascar.

  
Marty. It's...
It's just like my mural, back at the zoo.

  
Oh,no fellow. That is the real deal right there.
Look at that, it's not a bad view.

  
I mean that's the thing that
you were always looking at,

  
but it's actually there,
that's like the real version of...

  
How about once around the park?
Let's get our blood pumping,

  
get those lungs breathing at all
this fresh air, who's with me?

  
Ah, no. I really I don't
think I can. You're it!

  
Hey! Wanna play around?

  
Got you there!
Come here!

  
Hey, stop that!
Hey, you're crazy!

  
Okay Marty, I'm it.

  
I'm it! I'm it, you win.
Come on, Alex. Get in the groove.

  
I haven't eaten in two days.
My blood sugar is real low.

  
I just don't have the energy.
I don't think that's your problem.

  
First of all that's not
how you run in the wild.

  
Let's go man! Put your rubber to the road!

  
You just have to let up that inner lion!

  
Now, who's the cat?
Marty, I really don't...

  
You are! That's who!
Come on, here we go!

  
That's it. Now let's
build up some steam!

  
You're the cat.
Who's the cat?

  
Who's the cat?
Who's the cat?

  
Who's the cat?
Who's the cat?

  
I'm the cat!

  
Surprise!

  
You're it! You're it!
Can't juke the cat. Cat's too quick.

  
I feel like a mile high pastrami on rye,
on the fly from the deli in the sky!

  
Let's go wild!
Now you're talking!

  
Man, I feel.. hehehe... Great!

  
Marty, Marty, Marty!
Like you said baby, it's...

  
Crackalackin'! Ain't that right, Melman!
Oh, yeah! Yeah!

  
I'm in heaven!

  
You see, Maurice Alex is now a friend
and the Foosas are nowhere to be seen.

  
It could be said that my plan is
working in a very good workin' kind of way.

  
Alex, you gotta try some of this!

  
I feel good! I feel like a King again!
King?

  
Yeah! You should see his act!

  
Come on Alex, why don't
you show him some of your act?

  
No, I really don't think I can... Okay.
Ladies and gentlemen, primates of all ages,

  
the wild proudly presents
the King! Alex the Lion!

  
E flat, fellows!

  
Yeah! The King is in the house!

  
If he's a King, then where's his crown?

  
I've got the crown. Got the very nice one! And
it's still on my head! Look at it. Have I got it on?

  
The roar man, the roar!

  
Wow! I've never heard that one before!

  
Yeah go wild man, come on!

  
Break out the wave!

  
Excuse me!
You're biting my butt!

  
No, I'm not.
Yes, you are.

  
Alex, what did you do?
He bit me on the butt!

  
No. I didn't. Did I?
You kind of did.

  
You just bit me on the butt!
What a hack is wrong with you?

  
Why did you bite me?
Man, is because you are his dinner?

  
What?
Excuse me?

  
That's dumb. Dumb, dumb, Maurice.

  
What is the simple bite
on the buttocks among friends?

  
Here.. Give me a nibble..
The party is over, Julian.

  
Your brilliant plan has failed.
What are you talking about?

  
Your friend here is what we call a
deluxe model hunting and eating machine.

  
And he eats steak. Which is you.
Get out of here.

  
Okey dokey, Maurice.
I admit it, the plan failed.

  
All is lost! We're all doomed.

  
The Foosas will come back and
gobble us with their mouths!

  
Because we are all steak.
I'm steak! Me, me, me, me!

  
Mr. Alex cannot stay here.
He belongs with his own kind.

  
On the Foosa side of the island.
By the power invested in me,

  
by the law of the jungle,
bla, bla, bla, bla.

  
Be gone!
What? Come on.

  
Do I look like a steak to you?
Yeah.

  
See, I told you I don't look like...

  
Wait, wait, what did you say?
Oh, yeah!

  
He's going savage.
Run for your lives!

  
Marty, run!

  
A bull's eye. Excellent shot, Maurice.
Thank you.

  
Marty? I'm so sorry, Marty.

  
What is wrong with me?

  
Oh, no. What have I done?

  
It's true. I'm a monster.

  
I gotta get out of here.

  
Foosa Territory
1 Mile

  
What have I done?
This is a nightmare!

  
It's all my fault.

  
Now because of me we've lost Alex.
What are we gonna do?

  
We're gonna find the way to help him,
that's what we're gonna do.

  
Come on, we are New Yorkers, right?

  
We're tough. We're gritty.
We're adoptable!

  
And we are not going to lay
down like a bunch of Melmans!

  
No, we're not.
Oh,come.. Gloria!

  
That was not me, okay?
That was the boat. The boat!

  
The boat? The boat's come back for us!

  
Come on guys, we gotta flag it down!

  
Here it is!
Over here!

  
Come on, give me a lift!
Come on, lift me up, lift me up!

  
Help! Help! Help!
Over here!

  
My head. My head. Guys.

  
Over here!
Over here!

  
You have no idea how much this hurts.

  
Look! It's turning!
It's coming back!

  
Yes, this way!
Come on, baby!

  
You guys flag down that
boat, I'll go get Alex!

  
Hold on then. You cannot
go back there by yourself.

  
Come on, I know Alex. When he hears
we're rescued, he'll snap right out of it!

  
The people are coming, they can help us.
Melman's right. The people will know what to do.

  
Now come on, we gotta flag down that boat.

  
Now this is more like it!
You! Oh man... Where are the people?

  
We killed them and ate their livers.

  
Gotcha, didn't I? Just kiddin' doll,
the people are fine.

  
They are on the slow lifeboat to China.

  
Hey! I know you two.
Where's that psychotic lion..

  
.. and our monochromatic friend?
Marty? He's right...

  
Where did he go?
He was right behind us.

  
He went back for Alex,
he's gonna get himself killed.

  
Boys, our monochromatic friend is in danger.

  
Looks like we have a job to do.

  
Captain's log: Embarking into hostile environment.

  
Kowalski. We'll need to win the
hearts and the minds of the natives.

  
Rico. We'll need special
tactical equipment.

  
We're gonna face extreme peril.

  
Private probably won't survive.

  
Alex, come on Alex!

  
The boat's here, we can go home!

  
Alex!

  
Alex.
Marty?

  
Snap out of it, Alex. Boat came
back. We can get out of here!

  
We can go back to civilisation and
everything will be, just like it used to be!

  
Stay back. Please.
I'm a monster.

  
Alex, you're no monster.
You're my friend.

  
We're a team, you and me, remember?

  
I don't wanna hurt you.

  
Alex, I ain't leaving without you.

  
Alex, I'm thinking of a song.
It's a wonderful song.

  
I'm sure you're familiar with it.

  
Start spreading the news.

  
I'm leaving today.

  
We are a great big part of it.

  
Come on, you know the words.
Two little words!

  
Please don't make me sing this by myself.

  
You really don't wanna hear
me sing this by myself.

  
Alex?

  
Come on here for a minute.

  
Hey Alex, little help.
Help me!

  
Alex!

  
Help me! Anybody help me! Somebody!

  
Melman?
That's right, baby.

  
Run!

  
What's the plan?
This is the plan!

  
This is the plan?

  
Foosa hold!

  
Foosa ha!

  
Foosa uh!

  
Foosa ha!

  
Come and get it!

  
There's too many of them, Skipper!
It's been a real pleasure serving with you, boys.

  
Alex?
That's my kill! Mine.

  
Alex hungry.

  
Alex eat.

  
Pss!

  
It's showtime.

  
Thanks for not giving up on me, Marty.

  
Man, you almost gave me a heart attack.

  
You can't just come up
here and sneak upon me.

  
We're getting out of here.
Guys, just go with me on this.

  
Like I said.. It's showtime.

  
My kill! They're all mine!

  
It's the king of the beasts!Oh no!
Please don't eat me Mr. Lion.

  
Fear me! Savagery beyond comprehension!

  
I'm far too young to die!

  
And you!

  
Are you want some of this?
You better run for your lives!

  
Somebody call a cop!
He's psychotic!

  
This is my territory! Understand?

  
I never ever wanna see you on my turf again!

  
Yeah! You're the cat!

  
I did it! Give me some love!

  
The plan worked!
The plan worked! I'm very clever!

  
I'm the one, baby!
Come on, time to robot!

  
I am a very clever king.
I am supergenious.

  
I am robot king of the monkey thing.

  
So, what's for lunch?

  
Close those eyes!
Why do I have to close my eyes?

  
Do it!
They're closed.

  
Tighter!
Yes, sir.

  
No peeking!
All right, they're closed.

  
Rico.

  
Open that hatch.

  
Fire in the hole!
Now chew!

  
Chew like you mean it.
Savor it!

  
And?
Well?

  
Pretty good, right?
There's always plan B.

  
This is better than steak.
I love it! I love it!

  
The kitty loves the fishy.

  
May I propose a toast?

  
Now he may be a pain
in the butt at times,

  
and trust me, I know.

  
But this cat, proved to me without a doubt,

  
That he's heart is bigger, than his stomach! To Alex!

  
To Alex!

  
Enough!Stupid!

  
Well, what do you guys think?
Should we head back to New York?

  
I don't know, Marty.
I mean this is your dream.

  
You're sure you wanna leave?
I don't care where we are.

  
As long as we're together,
it doesn't matter to me.

  
Well, in that case. Yo, Rico!

  
I'll take three hundred orders! To go!

  
Yes, yes. But before you leave,
I have an announcement to make.

  
So shut up everyone, please. Thank you.

  
After much deep and profound
brain things inside my head,

  
I have decided to thank you
for bringing peace to our home.

  
And to make you feel good, I'm gonna
give you this lovely parting gift.

  
No, I couldn't. Really I can't take your crown.

  
That's okay, I've got a bigger
crown. It's got a gecko on it.

  
Look at him shake!
Go, Stevie, go!

  
Bye, little fuzzbuckets!
Thanks for everything!

  
Okay, bye-bye now.

  
Bye-bye! See you later, crocodile.

  
Maurice! My arm is tired.
Wave it for me.

  
Faster, you naughty little monkey.

  
You know, by the time we get back to New York,

  
it's gonna be the middle of the winter.
So I was just thinking, why rush?

  
Maybe we could make a
few side stops along the way?

  
Maybe Paris?
You just read my mind!

  
I was thinking, Spain. Run
with the bulls. What about Fiji?

  
Cool! Canada, can we? Cheap meds.

  
You know, I wouldn't mind coming
back here for a visit sometime.

  
Yeah, I can do that.
You can say that again.

  
Skipper,

  
Don't you think we should tell
them, that the boat's out of gas?

  
Nah..., just smile and wave boys,
smile and wave.
