• Ozzie : I thought you were dead.

  Heather : I learned from the best, Dad.

  Ozzie : That's my girl.

• RJ : Please don't think I'm prying, but I couldn't help overhearing, and I think I can shed a little light on what this whole hedge situation is about. You see, what was once mere wilderness is now 54 acres of man-made, manicured, air-conditioned paradise.

  [Points at map] 

  RJ : Except for that little-bitty speck. You are here.

  [All gasp] 

  RJ : No, no, that's a good thing. You're hibernators, right? You gather up a bunch of food, store it away for the winter?

  Hammy the Squirrel : Aha! We fill the log!

  Verne : Hammy.

  RJ : Really? This log? This cave-like log?

  Ozzie : All the way to the top.

  Verne : Ozzie.

  RJ : Let me ask ya, how long's it take, you know, to fill the log?

  Heather : Two-hundred and seventy-four days.

  RJ : Ooh! Ever done it in a week?

  Verne : That's impossible.

  RJ : Not if we work together. You see, you've got the food-gathering skills, I've got the know-how, and they have the food.

  Heather : How much food?

  RJ : Loads of food! Heaps of food! Food out the wazoo!

  Verne : Well, you know, whatever kind of food comes out of a wazoo, I really don't think we're interested in eating.

  Lou : I don't know. The guy's making a lot of sense to me. I think we should listen.

  Penny : Yeah. I'm okay with wazoo food there.

• Verne : [when questioned about the food]  I returned it to its rightful owner.

  Ozzie : What?

  Heather : We, like, worked our tails off, y'know? Like a lot! And the food we gathered was totally... you know! And you're, you're all whatever!

• Ozzie : You should have *died*! You should've just laid down and died!

  Heather : Dad!

• Heather : [Locked in a cage, about to be driven off for extermination]  I don't want to die, Dad. Not for real...

• Hammy the Squirrel : [energetic]  Where's the food? It's there any food left? I'm really hungry, so it's there any food left there, huh?

  Heather : We ate all the food, Hammy, during the winter? So we're just about get some more now.

  Hammy the Squirrel : Oh, right! I buried my nuts in the woods. I know where they are. I'll be right back. Bye!

  [Hammy zips off. A drop of snow from the branch falls on Ozzie's head. He gasps and plays dead. The triplets laughs at Ozzie] 

  Heather : [chuckles nervously]  Dad, it's just snow.

  Ozzie : But, it could've been a predator.

  Heather : Isn't playing dead a little... weak?

  Ozzie : Heather, how many times must I say it? Playing possum is what we do. We die, so that we live!

• Ozzie : I really thought you were dead!

  Heather : I learned from the best.

• Heather : [to Verne]  You're just a... whatever!

• Stella : What'll we do for food?

  Verne : I don't know. But here's what I do know. We will be fine as long as no one goes over Steve again.

  RJ : It's called a hedge, and it is not to be feared, my amphibious friend. It is the gateway to the good life.

  Verne : Uh, I'm a reptile, actually. But, you know, it's a common mistake. And, uh, you are?

  RJ : Oh, where are my manners. I'm RJ. Now please don't think I'm prying, but I couldn't help overhearing, and I think I could shed a little light on what this whole hedge situation is about.

  [Pulls out a map] 

  RJ : You see, what was once mere wilderness is now 54 acres of man-made, manicured, air conditioned paradise. Except for that little bitty speck. You are here.

  [They all gasp]

  Penny : Yeah, I'm okay with wazoo food there.

  Verne : No, you're not. The tail is tingling.

  RJ : Hold on, hold on. The what is what?

  Verne : When something doesn't feel right, my tail tingles. And let me tell you something, everything you said so far is driving my tail crazy.

  RJ : Listen. Verne, right? This isn't something you need to be afraid of.

  Verne : Well, I am. And for good reason.

  [Shows him a stainmark on his shell] 

  Verne : This is not a birthmark.

  [RJ cleans it off with a toothbrush] 

  RJ : Ah, that's because you went over there without a guide, Verne.

  Verne : Whatever. Thanks for stopping by. We're not interested.

  RJ : Not interested in the most delicious food you've ever tasted?

  Verne : No!

  RJ : Come on.

  Verne : Not interested.

  RJ : Okay. I get it. I understand. This is something that you're just not open to.

  [Opens up a bag of Doritos the gust of wind is so strong it pushes everyone backwards] 

  Hammy the Squirrel : What is that?

  RJ : That, my friend, is a magical combination of corn flour, dehydrated cheese solids, BHA, BHT and good old MSG, a.k.a.the chip. Nacho cheese flavor.
