Performance Evaluation and Workplace Expectations
Swifty
Adequate?
Magda
Extremely.
Swifty
Extremely...adequate?
Magda
Up from last year's competently sufficient, but down from the year before's satisfactorily appropriate. Still, no promotion for you this year. Now, get back to work.
[opens the file; puts file away]
Swifty
Magda, I-I've worked really hard for this. I mean, it's-it's not fair.
Magda
Life is not fair. Is it fair that I have to run business with antique equipment and employees who are only extremely adequate? Is it fair that ex-husband run off with wild elk 10 years younger? No!
Swifty
I'm sure I had nothing to do with that. Was that an earthquake?
[an earthquake is felt, the drawer opens]
Magda
Don't try to change subject. I know you have big dream of being Top Dog, but you're not dog, you're just fox.
[closes the drawer; stands up]
Swifty
Did you have to say "just a fox"? Couldn't you just say "a fox"? I mean, the "just" thing is really kind of... Look, what if I had just a small delivery route? Just a little one?
Magda
Nyet. I run serious business here. Quiet.
[a beaver in a bucket scans barcodes on packages and falls down causing the packages to tumble]
Swifty
I didn't say anything.
Beaver
I'm okay!

Unpleasant Smell Comparison by Swifty
Swifty
The gas! Ugh, that smell! It's like the planet made of poopy.

Strength, Truth, and Identity in Adversity
Top Dogs
Arctic strong!
[repeated line]
PB
Be stronger than excuses, Swifty. Let's go!
[jogging]
Lemmy
Don't go labeling me. That's my job.
Leopold
The truth, she's in here.
Bertha
We still don't trust her.

Planning a Bold Entrance
Swifty
We're gonna drive right through the front door.
[standing on a giant snow plough that Jade built; jumps down]
PB
Then what?
Swifty
Inside, right next to the door is a wall of sleeping gas blasters.
Lemmy
Where else would you put em, man?
Swifty
Exactly! Everyone grabs a blaster, we start gassing, they all go nighty-night. Bertha and Leopold will hack into the mainframe where we find Jade, Duke, and the others are being held. We rescue them, round up the bad guys. ] Justice served! How about ya!
[[Racing Stripes|Badda-bing badda-boom!]

Magnifique!

Dreams and Responsibilities in Arctic Adventures
Duke
I don't know about you guys, but I'm looking forward to 40 winks of a good old-fashioned shuteye.
[opens the door; walks down the stairs]
Dusty
Yeah, my dogs are barkin', alright. Can you believe Swifty today, getting caught stealing that old sled?
[walks down the stairs]
Dakota
If that fella had an inkling of what this job actually entails...
[walks down the stairs]
Duke
Let the little guy have his dream. He's not hurting anyone.
Dakota
Well, what have we got here?
[sees a puffin]
Dusty
Hello, little guy.
Duke
Are you lost? You want us to call your... ...mama?
[a second puffin jumps out from behind the first puffin, the 2 puffins spray the Top Dogs with sleeping gas blasters; the Top Dogs faint from the sleeping gas]

Recognition and Self-Doubt in Leadership
PB
Hey, Top Dog, what gives?
Swifty
Don't call me that. I don't deserve it.
PB
Sure you do, pal. You've worked hard.
Swifty
No, I only got the chance because Duke and the others disappeared.
PB
They didn't disappear, they quit.
Swifty
That's just it. I don't think they did.
PB
What do you mean?
Swifty
I think something is going on, PB.
PB
I'm all ears.
Swifty
There's this crazy {{w|walrus}} with robotic legs and a British accent. I know, weird already, right? Okay, it gets better. Now they're holed up in a secret fortress filled with adorable yet evil little {{w|puffins}} and they're building this huge machine which I think may have something to do with the rising temperatures. And I saw harnesses in a garbage can which makes me 90% sure the Top Dogs have been dognapped! And there were sleeping gas blasters! IT'S WEIRD, MAN! I'M JUST TELLIN YA! I sound like I'm crazy, don't I?
[pause; calms down]
PB
Certifiable.
Swifty
How about now? Do I sound like crazy now? You gotta believe me. Why don't you believe me?
[sounds saner; PB crosses his arms]
PB
Because for years, you've been stretching the truth to get attention, that's why. And quite frankly, I've had enough! You don't have to make up a bunch of stuff to impress me. I'm not Jade. Are you listening to me?
[sighs]
Swifty
Yes. Oh wait, no! What? I forgot about Jade. They're using her to build the machine.
PB
Who?
Swifty
The walrus.
PB
The one with the robo-legs?
Swifty
Yes!
PB
Okay, that's it. You need to go see Doc Grizzly.
Swifty
NO! I don't like him! C'mon, PB, I... Look, I'm sorry, okay? I just need you to unders--
PB
You always need me to do something. Well, I need to get to work. That's what I need to do. But you're probably not listening anyway. You never do.

Stuck Together in a Difficult Situation
Swifty
Duke, Dakota, Dusty!
[sees the Top Dogs]
Dusty
They got you too, huh?
Swifty
This is great! I mean, well, it's not great we're all stuck in here, but we're all together, right? You can help us all escape now.
Duke
Escape"? Look, little fella, you can't defeat these guys.
[chuckles sadly]
Dakota
There's no way.
Swifty
What are you guys talking about? You're Top Dogs. Taigasville needs you. You're heroes!
[stammers in disbelief]
Duke
Heroes"? We're 3 overworked mutts who just wanna retire somewhere warm.
Dusty
With a beach.
Dakota
And those coconut shell drinks with the little umbrellas in them.
Swifty
Whatever happened to "When put to the test, deliver your best."?
[as the others sadly walk away]
Duke
Heh. All you kids, you grew up idolizing us, thinking we're larger than life. But the truth is, we just deliver the mail.
[walks to Swifty]
Swifty
No...
[pause]
Duke
Look, the show's over, kid. We're done.

Unauthorized Actions Lead to Consequences
Otto Von Walrus
Kidnapping the Top Dogs was not an order. HOW DARE YOU CARRY OUT SUCH AN OPERATION WITHOUT MY PERMISSION! Now that the Top Dogs have seen our operation, we can't let them go, can we?! They know too much! So who will deliver Jade's packages to me now, you birdbrains?

Swifty's Regret Over Weight for Sledding
PB
Swifty? What are you doing here so early?
[after pulling Swifty out of the snow pile]
Swifty
I lost... my pound.
PB
What pound?
Swifty
The pound I gained to hit the 20-pound minimum to pull the Top Dog sled!
PB
Well, you can't fight your metabolism.
Swifty
I can, and I will. Put to the test, I'm going to deliver my best. Come on!
PB
Swifty, how have I put this repeatedly in the past?
Swifty
Look out!
PB
Oh yes, deliveries have only ever been made by dogs, and you are not a dog. You are a small {{w|arctic fox}} who was not meant to pull a giant sled with even gianter packages on it. Are you hearing me?
Swifty
What? Yeah, every word. Come on, buddy, we've got a pound of find. Let's go!

Biolipadium Aradithic Dipsodium gas. B-A-D. BAD gas.
Bertha

Leopold
Unknown to the establishment.
Bertha
Denied by the establishment.
Leopold

Bertha
It is mutant!

It is hot and incredibly stinky!

Innovative Coffee Maker Modifications Explained

Hey, is that my coffee maker?
Jade
Oh, yeah.
PB
Whoa!

I retempered the glass on the carafe, added a hydraulic press, and juiced up the tiered percolation unit.
PB
Thanks! Does it still make coffee?
Jade
Yes, PB, it still makes coffee.
