Quotations

Who wants a badge for ignoring the girl with the pink hair and the bad attitude?

Have you ever heard the sound of a rubber ball breaking a window?

I did it! I beat Sportacus! (does a maniacal dance)

I did it! I'm in the airship!

Woof woof woof He loves to howl Woof woof woof Oh what a growl! Woof woof woof Just watch him play And chase those annoying brats away!

They say that I should change And wear a perky smile But smiling makes my face hurt And happiness is vile.

Yeah, now to put my rotten plan in effect. Get the trophy and get rid of Sportacus forever.

Three minutes. There won't be any concert. Uh. Ah. Come on, ducky. Let's fix our hair.

Now kids, stand up, turn your book around, sit down AND.... Fall asleep.

Sportacus's memory is as lost as a sock in a dryer.
