*Meanwhile*

(Some monkeys were going around stealing stuff from people)

Monkey: (Screams, chitters)

Lady Tourist: Oh, what an adorable monkey.

Guy: Aw.

Lead Marmoset: (Indistinct chatter)

Monkey: (Chittering) (Hooting)

Lead Marmoset: (Blows raspberries)

Woman: Oh. Oh, no.

Tourist: Hey, My watch!

("Funky Monkey" plays)

Lead Marmoset: (Grunting) (Hooting)

Nigel: Hello, boys. Seems like you've had a busy day.

Lead Marmoset: (Laughs) What, this? [Referring to all the stuff they've stolen from tourists] This is just some stuff we... found! Right boys? Yeah.

[The crowd of monkeys all agree]

Nigel: I'm not interested in your nicked knick-knacks. Your burgled baubles bore me. There are two blue macaws out there, along with five animals from Africa, and I need your multitude of eyes to help me find them.

Lead Marmoset: Oh, yeah? What's in it for us?

Nigel: Well, that's a fair question. [He suddenly takes the lead marmoset and flies high into the sky]

Nigel: Let's discuss it. [Nigel drops him]

Nigel: I certainly see your point. [To the lead marmoset as he's falling down]

Nigel: But what could I possibly do for you in return? Hmm?

Lead Marmoset: Save me! Save me!

Nigel: Oh? Well, that's a thought. Yeah. But is it enough? I don't want to feel like I'm cheating you.

Lead Marmoset: Help me! Help me! Help me! We'll do it! We'll do it! Save me! Please! Save meeeee![Just before he hits the ground, he stops as Nigel catches him]

Nigel: All right, you've twisted my wing. Deal. Now then, any more questions?

[The group of monkeys remain silent]

Nigel: No? Good. You will spread out and you will find these macaws and these African animals by the end of the day, or it's flying lessons for everyone! Go!

[The group of monkeys all scream with fright and run off]

Nigel: Go do your monkey business.

Blu: (Whimpers) (Yells) [as he looks down the edge of a cliff] I've changed my mind! Yeah. Uh, maybe we could find a... a bus schedule or something?

Rafael: Come on! You're not gonna back out now, Not in front of the lady!

Blu: Uh... huh! Okay, yeah. Yeah, yeah, sure.

Rafael: All right! That's the spirit!

Jewel: You're sure you're up for this?

Blu: Yeah. Yeah, I mean, well it's not like we're just hurling ourselves off a mountain or something, right?

Rafael: Actually, that was pretty much my entire plan.

Blu: What?

Rafael: No. Don't worry, Blu. It's in your DNA. And if our featherless friends can do it, how hard can it be?
