1) Cloning Crisis [1]
During a quiet morning, the penguins were in the HQ relaxing. Skipper had just brewed a cup of coffee and added his choice of cá when Julien dropped through the hatch with his subjects, Maurice and Mort.
"Hello, my smelly subjects!" he called. Though his remark annoyed Skipper, he ignored it.
"What do bạn want, Ringtail? We've already told bạn thousands of times, we're not giving bạn a sponge bath," Skipper said, suddenly losing his appetite for his cá coffee and setting his mug on the counter.
"No, silly water-bird. bạn see, as your king, I must always be fashionably perfect! So, I am in needing of a new crown," Julien explained.
"And what does this have to do with us?" Skipper asked folding his flippers over his chest.
"Isn't it obvious? I am needing the crazy one to destroy my old crown before someone finds it and tries to yên cương, dây nịt my lông, lông thú cells to create clones of me! There can only be one king, which is me!" Julien answered.
"Oh, I wouldn't worry about that, Ringtail," Skipper đã đưa ý kiến rolling his eyes.
"And what makes bạn so sure?" Julien inquired.
"Because, trust me, no one in their right mind would want to make thêm of you."
2) The King of Hearts
"So, do we have anything else to deal with, Kowalski?" Skipper asked his một giây in command.
Kowalski looked over his clipboard. "Just one; we need to fix the máy bơm on Julien's bouncy. It's been slowly deflating for a little over a ngày now and Alice hasn't taken notice," he informed his leader.
Skipper nodded. "Alright. Let's get a di chuyển on, then," he ordered his team.
Upon arrival, Julien came bounding up to them. "There bạn are! I've been waiting for bạn for forever! Are bạn going to fix my bouncy pump, now?"
Skipper rolled his eyes. "Yes, Ringtail. We're here to fix your pump. Now, di chuyển aside."
Julien did so as Kowalski set to work on the pump, opening a control panel and examining the wires.
"Ah, I see the problem. Rico, hand me some wire cutters," Kowalski requested. Rico fulfilled it and Kowalski reconnected a set of broken wires. The máy bơm came to life and started pumping air into the bouncy once again.
"Well, I guess that means we're done. It's good as new," Skipper đã đưa ý kiến to Julien. Julien approached the bouncy as it regained its form.
"I will be the judge of that!" Julien đã đưa ý kiến hopping atop the bouncy and performing a series of bounces. He laughed in triumph. "Yes! Being bounceless for twenty-four hours has been leaving me bounce-depraved!" he cried.
Kowalski was about to correct him—since he should have used the term deprived instead of depraved—but was interrupted when Julien continued.
"Thanking you, penguins! Thanking bạn from the tim, trái tim of my bottom!"
3) Everyone Has Limits [II]
"No, bạn hang up first! No, bạn hang up first! No, you! No, you!"
It had been a week since Kowalski and Doris had finally become a couple, and Kowalski had helped Doris gain access to a phone on the coast. Now, the two of them were on the phone having a seemingly endless goodbye. They'd been going on like this for almost an hour, and it was getting on the team's last nerves.
"No, you! No, you!" Kowalski đã đưa ý kiến over and over again from the side of the HQ, leaning over the bàn like a lovesick teenager.
Skipper rubbed his temples. "I don't think I can take this much longer…" he muttered to Rico, who was sitting tiếp theo to him with earmuffs over his earholes. He didn't even realize Skipper had đã đưa ý kiến anything.
"No, you! No, bạn hang up! No, you hang up first!" Kowalski continued…Still.
Out of nowhere, Private took the phone from him and held his flipper over the receiver. "No, me!" He held the phone to his beak. "Sorry, our HQ is going through a tunnel. Goodbye," he đã đưa ý kiến before hanging up.
"Private! Why did bạn do that!?" Kowalski asked pulling the phone back and punching at the buttons.
Skipper stepped in between them and pulled the phone from Kowalski. "Sorry, Kowalski, but bạn really need to get off for the night."
"Why? It's not that late!" Kowalski protested.
"Kowalski, it's almost midnight," Skipper told him.
"Oh…Sorry, Skipper. A simple 'please get off the phone' would've been enough, though," he muttered.
"Sorry, Kowalski," Private said, "I just couldn't take it anymore!"
"Really, Private? I figured bạn would understand, considering you're the most tenderhearted out of all of us," Kowalski inquired.
"Sorry, Kowalski. But even sensitive guys have their limits."
4) Relationships [III]
As usual, King Julien and Skipper were having yet another argument at the zoo meeting that was taking place at the Zoovenir Shop.
“You cannot just barge in on all and any chim cánh cụt operation like that! bạn could’ve ruined everything! Not to mention that it’s completely classified!” Skipper was saying.
“But I am king! I am entitled to do whatever I desire whenever I desire!” Julien argued.
“I’ll hiển thị bạn what I desire—”
“Guys! Do bạn really have an argument at every single meeting?” Roger asked. It was the first meeting he’d attended since he'd been a resident at the zoo.
“It’s not my fault that he has to stick his royal nose into everything!” Skipper protested.
“I’m sure there’s something we can do to work this out, here,” Roger said.
“Eh, sorry, my amphibious neighbor, but it is the smelly chim cánh cụt who is not wanting to work this out!” Julien told him.
“Um, first off, I’m a reptile,” Roger corrected. “Second, I think bạn both are the problem.”
“Both of us? Have bạn been paying attention? He’s the one being difficult!” Skipper protested.
“Can’t bạn two just learn to get along?” Roger asked.
“No, I’m afraid Ringtail and I have a very complicated loathe-hate relationship,” Skipper answered.
“Um, don’t bạn mean love-hate relationship?” Roger asked, recognizing the phrase. Skipper shook his head.
“I meant what I said.”
5) Payback [IV]
The penguins were getting ready to turn in on a late Friday night when the lemurs dropped down into the HQ.
“Hello, flightless waterbirds! I am here only to be using your TV for my entertainment purposes,” Julien told them.
“Well, Ringtail, go right ahead,” Skipper permitted.
“Oh, come on! bạn have to be…Wait, did bạn just say yes?” Julien asked, not quite sure he heard Skipper correctly.
“Well, I don’t see why not,” Skipper answered glancing at the team, who were staring at him with their beaks hanging open.
“You mean to tell me, that bạn are going to allow me to use your television? No lecture on boundaries? No shoving us out of your penguiny HQ?” Julien asked.
“Nope. Enjoy yourself,” Skipper assured him.
The lemurs exchanged a glance and shrugged, then made their way to the television. When they were occupied, Kowalski leaned in closer to Skipper and lowered his voice.
“Are bạn really going to let them do this? bạn know they’ll expect to be able to come back in the future,” he said.
“Oh, I’m not worried, Kowalski. After tonight, I’m sure they won’t want to come back for a long time,” Skipper đã đưa ý kiến with a grin.
“What makes bạn so sure?” Kowalski asked.
“Because, the remote just happens to be out of batteries and I have the ti vi set to hiển thị Friday the 13th.”
6) Mutual Feelings [V]
While Marlene was busy relaxing in her habitat, Julien hopped in trotted up to her.
“Hello, Marlene! How are bạn to be doing today?” he asked.
Marlene propped herself up bởi her elbows, lifting herself from her laying position. “I’m doing alright, I guess. What are bạn doing here?”
“I was just seeing how bạn were doing. Oh, bởi the way, can I borrow your bờ biển, bãi biển ball for a party I am having tonight?”
“Well, I’m kind of busy right now. I’ll come to your habitat and let bạn know my decision later on,” Marlene replied relaxing back down into the grass.
“But…I need to know now…" Julien said.
“So, you’re saying bạn don’t want me to bother bạn at your habitat later on?” Marlene asked.
“Well, now that bạn mention it…"
“Good. Now bạn know how I feel.”
7) Ultimate Staring Contest
Maurice woke with a yawn and a stretch on an early Saturday morning. When he turned to wake his king, he wasn’t tiếp theo to him where he’d turned in for the night. However, Mort was still snoozing away on the bouncy, snuggling with his tail. Maurice nudged him.
“Mort? Mort, wake up,” he called.
“No, no, Rodney…The feet are mine only…” Mort replied in his sleep. Maurice rolled his eyes.
“Mort, you’re dreaming. Wake up!” he đã đưa ý kiến nudging him a little harder. Mort slowly woke up and rubbed his eyes.
“What?”
“Do bạn know where King Julien went?” Maurice asked. Mort shook his head and Maurice sighed. “Well, let’s go see what he’s up to so early in the morning.”
Maurice trusted his first instincts and checked his majesty’s throne. Sure enough, Julien was sitting in his throne…Staring intently into a mirror.
“King Julien? What are bạn doing up so—”
“Sh!” Julien interrupted. Maurice’s expression twisted into confusion and he lowered his voice.
“What’s wrong? What are you—”
“I đã đưa ý kiến sh!” Julien repeated.
Maurice cocked his head in curiosity and jumped when Julien threw his head back with a cry frustration.
“Darn it, Maurice! bạn broke my concentration!” he cried, refocusing his attention on the hand mirror.
“What are bạn doing?” Maurice asked.
“If bạn must know, I am having a staring contest with myself. But it’s difficult because I’m really good.”
8) Apocalypse
While the penguins were doing their morning exercises, Julien dropped into their habitat in a panic.
“Penguins! Penguins! bạn must hide me immediately!” he cried.
“What did bạn do now, Ringtail?” Skipper asked rolling his eyes.
“What? No! I didn’t do anything! Didn’t bạn hear? It’s the robot apocalypse! I am king! I cannot be turning into a mindless lump of steel!” Julien explained.
Kowalski leaned in closer to Skipper and whispered into his ear.
“Probably watched Robots Attack 4 again, sir,” he proposed.
Skipper nodded, then turned to Julien with a devious expression.
“What made bạn think it’d be an toàn, két an toàn here?” he asked.
“Well, bạn are going to be protecting me from the robots with your penguiny commando fighty moves!” Julien answered.
“Well, how do bạn know I’m not one?” Skipper inquired, moving toward him in a jerking motion.
Julien’s eyes widened and he took of running, screaming at the hàng đầu, đầu trang of his lungs. When Skipper turned back to the team in satisfaction, they were all giving him unamused stares.
“What?” Skipper asked.
“Was that really necessary?” Kowalski replied.
“Well, let’s see. Years of getting on my last nerves and leaving none of my buttons unpushed resulting in immature payback? Uh, yeah. I’d say it was,” Skipper answered with a devious grin plastered across his face that a young boy might wear after pulling a girls’ hair.
Kowalski thought for a moment.
“Yeah, good point.”
9) Ambush
On a bright sunny morning, Skipper and Marlene were walking through Central Park.
“It’s a lovely morning, isn’t it, Skipper?” Marlene asked admiring a colorful con bướm, bướm that flew across their path.
“It’s fine, I guess. But I still don’t understand why bạn brought me out here,” Skipper replied.
“Because! bạn need to learn how to relax a little!” Marlene replied giving him a hard stare.
“I don’t have time to relax! Who knows what dangers are prowling out there right now while I’m on a nature walk!” Skipper argued.
“Skipper, I think if there were anything to worry about, bạn would’ve known bởi now,” Marlene đã đưa ý kiến rolling her eyes.
Skipper laughed.
“Marlene, you’d be surprised how many situations arise in the blink of an eye. Someone could be watching us this very moment…” Skipper đã đưa ý kiến eyeing the bushes suspiciously.
“Skipper, I think we’re an toàn, két an toàn right now,” Marlene insisted.
“That’s exactly what I’m talking about, Marlene! bạn don’t think. bạn feel. And I feel like we’re being watched!” Skipper shot back.
“Skipper, you’re just paranoid! Can’t bạn just enjoy what life has to offer bạn for once?” Marlene begged.
“Because I—”
He was interrupted when a rustling sound erupted from the bụi cây, cây bụi, tổng thống bush they were passing by. He pushed Marlene behind him and poised himself for combat.
“See, Marlene? This is what I’m talking about! bạn never know when you’re enemies are about to attack! A few thêm giây and bạn and I wouldn’t be having this conversation,” he explained over his shoulder. “Show yourself!” he ordered turning back to the bush.
Marlene peered over his shoulder just as something emerged from the bụi cây, cây bụi, tổng thống bush and she sighed.
“Oh, I’m sorry, Skipper. I didn’t realize that it was inevitable that we were going to be mauled bởi a bunny.”
10) Rise and Shine
The alarm sounded for wake-up at precisely 0600 and Skipper, Private, and Rico pulled themselves out of bed. When Skipper realized that Kowalski remained in a slumber, he nudged him.
“Kowalski, it’s time to wake up!” he called.
Kowalski stirred.
“Stop it, Doris! I’m ticklish!” he đã đưa ý kiến in his sleep.
Skipper rolled his eyes. “Kowalski, it’s me, Skipper. Wake up!”
“I tình yêu you, too!”
Skipper smacked his forehead, then leaned in closer to Kowalski’s face.
“Kowalski, I have an electromagnetic quantum disintegrator cá đuối, ray with dynamism settings for you,” he called. Kowalski’s eyes popped open and he sat up with a start.
“Where?!” he asked eagerly.
“Welcome back to reality, Kowalski. I wonder how Doris would feel about bạn ditching your dream about her for a cá đuối, ray that doesn’t exist.”
