Barbara?

Uh-huh Yes?
Philip Sherman: [last words]
I don't understand it. Here, this thing has a lifetime guarantee and it breaks! I had to clean the tank myself, take all the fish out, put them in bags and... Where'd the fish go?
Gill:
Come on, Peach!
Deb:
Hurry!
Gill:
You can do it!
Bloat:
Yeah, that's it! You can do it!
Gurgle:
Just a little further!
Peach:

Bloat:
Come on, Peach!

We did it!
Gill:
Yes!!
Bloat:
Now what?

Dory:
Everybody swim down.
Nemo:

Dory:
Hey.
Marlin:
Dory, where's Nemo?!
Dory: [spots at Nemo in the fishing net gasps]
There!

Oh, no. Nemo! Nemo? Nemo? It's Okay. Daddy's here, daddy's got you.
Nemo: [coughs]
Daddy.
Marlin:
Oh, thank goodness.
Nemo:
Dad, I don't hate you.
Marlin:
Oh no, no, no. I'm so sorry, Nemo. Hey, guess what?
Nemo:
What?
Marlin:
Sea turtles? I met one. And he was 150 years old.
Nemo:
150?
Marlin:
Yep.
Nemo:
Because Sandy Plankton said they only live to be 100.
Marlin:
Sandy Plankton? Do you think I would cross the entire ocean and not know as much as Sandy Plankton?! He was 150! Not 100! Who is this Sandy Plankton who knows everything wrong? Time for school! Time for school! Get up, let's go! Go! I'm gonna win!
Nemo:
No, you're not. I did it!
Marlin:
My own son beats me!
Mr. Ray:
Climb aboard, explorers.

So just then, the sea cucumber looks over to the mollusk and says: With fronds like these, who needs anemones?

Well, hello, Nemo. Who's this?
Nemo:
Exchange student.

I'm... I'm so sorry. Truly I am.

Dory: [swims in front of him]
Hey, wait a minute. W-w-w-wait! Where are you going?
Marlin: [starts to swim]
It's over, Dory. We were too late. Nemo's gone. And I'm going home now.
Dory: [stutters; Marlin stops swimming; sighs]
No. No, you can't. Stop! Please don't go away. Please. No one's ever stuck with me for so long before. And if you leave... if you leave... I just, I remember things better with you. I do, look. P. Sherman, 42... Ugh. Forty... Two... I remember it, I do. It's there, I know it is, because when I look at you, I can feel it. And-and I look at you, and I... And I'm home. Please... I don't want that to go away. I don't want to forget.
Marlin: [sadly swims away]
I'm sorry, Dory. But I do.

Peach: [yawns; gasps; Zoom out on the sparking clean tank]
Morning. It's morning, everyone. Today's the day! The sun is shining, the tank is clean and we are getting out of- The tank is clean. The tank is clean!

But how?

What are we gonna do?
Gill:
What's it say, Peach?
Peach: [muffled]
The Aqua Scum 2003 is an...
Gill:
I can't hear you, Peach.
Peach:
The Aqua Scum 2003 is an all-purpose, self-cleaning, maintenance-free salt water purifier that is guaranteed to even extend the life of your aquarium fish.
Bloat: [inflates]
Stop it!
Peach:
The Aqua Scum is programmed to scan your tank environment every 5 minutes?
Gurgle: [The filter scans the tank with a laser and Gurgle whimpers.]
Uh, scan? What does that mean?
Aqua Scum:
Temperature, 82 degrees. pH balance normal.
All: [amazed]
Ooh.
Peach:
Nice.
Gurgle:
Oh, ah- CURSE YOU, AQUA SCUM!
Bloat:
That's it for the escape plan; it's ruined.
Nemo: [he doesn't finish before the door opens.]
Then what are we gonna do about...
All: [gasp]
Darla!
Gill: [Gills hides Nemo in a barrel. As the Tank Gang looks, they see that it's just a mother with her son.]
Stay down, kid.
Bloat:
False alarm.
Gurgle:
My nerves can't take much more of this.
Bloat:
What are we gonna do when that little brat gets here?

I'm thinking, I'm thinking.

Roll, kid! Lean! Lean! Go to the window.
Philip Sherman:
Whoops. That would have been a nasty fall.
Nemo:
Gill! Don't let me go belly up!
Gill:
Just calm down, Nemo.
Nemo:
Don't let me go belly up!
Gill:
You won't go belly up. I promise. You're gonna be okay.

Darla!

Dory: [swims upside down]
Here comes a big one. Whooo! Come on! You got to try this!
Marlin:
Would you just stop it?!
Dory:
Why? What's wrong?
Marlin:
We're in a whale! Don't you get it?!
Dory:
A whale?
Marlin:
A whale! Because you asked for help, and now we're stuck here!
Dory: [looks around her]
Wow. A whale. You know, I speak whale.
Marlin: [bumps into the whale's baleen; bumps again; bumps repeatedly; sobs and groans]
No! You're insane! You can't speak whale! I have to get out! I have to find my son! I have to tell him... ...how, old, sea, turtles, are!
Dory: [looks at Marlin; swims to Marlin]
Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoooo! Hey. Are you okay? There, there. It's all right. It'll be okay.
Marlin:
No. No, it won't.
Dory:
Sure, it will. You'll see.
Marlin:
No. I promised him I'd never let anything happen to him.
Dory:
Huh. That's a funny thing to promise.
Marlin:
What?
Dory:
Well, you can't never let anything happen to him. Then, nothing would ever happen to him.

Journey to P. Sherman, 42 Wallaby Way
Dory:
Whoa. We're going in there?
Marlin:
Yep.
Dory:
P. Sherman, 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney?
Marlin:
Yep. We're going to just swim straight.
Dory: [singing]
Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.
Marlin:
Dory. Boy, this is taking a while.
Dory:
Hey, How about we play a game?
Marlin:
All right.
Dory:
Okay, I'm thinking of something orange, and small...
Marlin:
It's me.
Dory: [later]
Right. I'm thinking of something orange and small...
Marlin:
It's me.
Dory: [later still]
All right, Mr. Smarty-pants... It's orange and small, and white stripes...
Marlin:
Me, and the next one's just a guess, me.
Dory:
Okay, that's just scary.
Marlin:
Wait, wait, wait. I have definitely seen this floating speck before. That means we've passed it before. And that means we're going circles. And that means we're not going straight.
Dory:
Hey.
Marlin:
We got to get to the surface. Come on, we'll figure it out up there. Let's go! Follow me!
Dory:
Whoa, whoa! Hey! Hey!
Marlin:
What?
Dory:
Relax. Take a deep breath.
Dory:
Now, let's ask somebody for directions.
Marlin:
Oh, fine. Who do you want to ask, the speck? There's nobody here!
Dory: [gasps]
Well, there has to be someone. It's the ocean, silly. We're not the only two in here. Let's see. Okay, no one there. Uh, nope. Nada. There's somebody. Hey! Excuse…
Marlin:
Dory, Dory, Dory! Okay, it's my turn. I'm thinking of something dark and mysterious. It's a fish we don't know. If we ask it directions, it could ingest us and spit out our bones!
Dory:
What is it with men and asking for directions?
Marlin:
Look, I don't want to play the gender card right now. You want to play a card? Let's play the "Let's not die" card.
Dory:
You wanna get out of here, don't you?
Marlin:
Of course I do.
Dory:
Well, then, how are we gonna do that unless we give it a shot, and hope for the best?

Oh, Nigel. You just missed an extraction.
Nigel:
Has he loosened the periodontal ligament yet.. Um, what am I talking about?! Nemo! Where's Nemo? I gotta speak with him.
Nemo:
What? What is it?
Nigel:
Your dad's been fighting the entire ocean looking for you.
Nemo:
My father? Really?
Gill:
Really?
Nigel:
Oh, yeah. He's travelled hundreds of miles. He's been battling sharks and jellyfish and all sorts of...
Nemo:
Sharks? That can't be him.
Nigel:
Are you sure? What was his name? Some sort of sportfish or something: tuna, uh, trout...
Nemo:
Marlin?
Nigel:
That's it! Marlin! The little clownfish from the reef.
Nemo:
It's my dad! He took on a shark!
Nigel:
I heard he took on three.
All:
Three?
Gill:
Three sharks?
Bloat:
That's gotta be fort eight hundred teeth!
Nigel:
You see, kid, after you were taken by diver Dan over there, your dad followed the boat you were on like a maniac.
Nemo:
Really?
Nigel:
He's swimming and he's swimming and he's giving it all he's got, and then three gigantic sharks capture him and he blows them up! And then dives thousands of feet and gets chased by a monster with huge teeth! He ties this demon to a rock and what does he get for a reward? He gets to battle an entire jellyfish forest! And now he's riding with a bunch of sea turtles on the East Australian Current and the word is he's headed this way right now, to Sydney!
Bloat:
Wow!
Deb:
Oh, what a good daddy!
Gill: [gasps; Nemo has grabbed a pebble and his heading for the filter]
He was looking for you after all, Shark Bait.
Gurgle:
He's swimming to the filter!
Gill:
Shark Bait!
Bloat:
Not again!
Gill:
Shark Bait!
Deb:
No!
Gurgle:
You've got your whole life ahead of you!
Bloat:
Oh, no.
Gill:
We'll help you, kid!
Bloat:
Gotta get him out!
Deb:
Give me that thing! Get him out of there!
Gurgle: [jammed gears]
Come on, kid! Grab the end!
Deb:
Shark Bait!
Bloat:
Shark Bait, are you okay?
Gurgle:
No!
Gill:
Can you hear me, Shark bait?! Nemo, can you hear me?!
Nemo: [appears; Everyone turn around and see Nemo is okay.]
Yeah, I can hear you.
Gill:
Shark Bait, you did it!
Deb:
Yay!
Gurgle:
Shark bait, you're covered with germs! Aah!
Gill:
That took guts, kid. All right, gang. We have less than 48 hours before Darla gets here. This tank'll get plenty dirty in that time, but we have to help it along any way we can. Jacques?
Jacques:
Oui.
Gill:
No cleaning.
Jacques:
I shall resist.
Gill:
Everybody else, be as gross as possible. Think dirty thoughts. We're gonna make this tank so filthy, the dentist'll have to clean it.
Gill:
Good work.

Gill:
You miss your dad, don't you, Shark Bait?
Nemo:
Yeah.
Gill:
Well, you're lucky to have someone out there who's looking for you.
Nemo:
He's not looking for me. He's scared of the ocean.
Gill:
Peach, any movement?
Peach:
He's had at least four cups of coffee; it's got to be soon.

Keep on him. My first escape, landed on dental tools. I was aiming for the toilet.

The toilet?
Gill:
All drains lead to the ocean, kid.
Nemo:
Wow. How many times have you tried to get out?
Gill:
Ehhh, I've lost count. Fish aren't meant to be in a box, kid. It does things to ya.
Bubbles: [giggles]
Bubbles! Bubbles! I love the bubbles.
Peach:
Potty break, potty break! He just grabbed the Reader's Digest! We have four point two minutes.
Gill:
That's your cue, Shark Bait.
Bloat:
You can do it, kid.
Gill:
You gotta be quick. Once you get in, you swim down to the bottom of the chamber and I'll talk you through the rest.
Nemo:
Okay.
Gill:
Go on, it'll be a piece of kelp.
Gill:
Nicely done. Can you hear me?
Nemo:
Yeah.
Gill:
Here comes the pebble. Now, do you see a small opening?
Nemo:
Uh-huh.
Gill:
Okay, inside it you'll see a rotating fan. Very carefully, wedge that pebble into the fan to stop it turning.
Nemo:
Ahh!
Gill:
Easy, easy. Careful, Shark Bait.
Nemo:
I can't do it.
Peach:
Gill, this isn't a good idea.
Gill:
He'll be fine. Try again.
Nemo:
Okay.
Gill:
That's it, Shark Bait. Nice and steady.
Nemo:
I got it! I got it!
Bloat:
He did it.
Gill:
That's great, kid. Now, swim up the tube and out.
Nemo:
Oh, no! Gill! Gill!
Gill:
Shark Bait!
Bloat:
Oh, my gosh!
Gill:
Get him out of there! Get him out of there!
Bubbles:
Help him!
Gurgle:
What do we do? What do we do?!
Peach:
Oh, no!
Gill:
Stay calm, kid! Just don't panic!
Nemo:
Help me!
Gill:
Shark Bait, grab hold of this!
Nemo:
No, no!
Gill:
Feed me more.
Gurgle:
That's it!
Gill:
Come on, Shark Bait! Grab it!
Nemo: [straining]
I got it!
Gill:
Pull!
Peach:
Gill? Don't make him go back in there.
Gill:
No. We're done.

Navigating the Ocean's Current Together
Dory:
Okay. Boy, it sure is clear up here.
Marlin:
Exactly. And look at that, there's the current. We should be there in no time.
Dory: [sees a tiny jellyfish]
Hey, little guy.
Marlin:
You wanted to go through the trench.
Dory: [mumbles cutely to it and gets zapped]
I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine. And he shall be my Squishy. Come here, Squishy. Come here, little Squishy. Ow!
Marlin:
Dory, that's a jellyfish!
Dory:
Bad Squishy. Bad Squishy!
Marlin: [flicks the tiny jellyfish out of sight with his tail]
Shoo, shoo, shoo! Get away! Come here. Let me see that.
Dory:
Don't touch it. Don't touch it.
Marlin: [grabs Dory's fin]
I'm not gonna touch it. I just want to look.
Dory:
Hey! How come it didn't sting you?
Marlin: [grabs Dory's fin second time]
It did. It's just that...
Dory:
Ow, ow, ow, ow!
Marlin: [grabs Dory's fin third time]
Hold still. I live in this anemone and I'm used to these kind of stings. Come here.
Dory:
Ow, ow, ow!
Marlin:
It doesn't look bad, you're gonna be fine. But now we know, don't we? That we don't want to touch these again. Let's be thankful this time it was just a little one.
Marlin and Dory:
Ahhh!
Marlin: [looks around all the jellyfishes]
Don't move. This is bad, Dory.
Dory: [starts jumping on the tops of jellyfish]
Hey, hey, watch this. Boing! Boing!
Marlin: [gasps]
Dory! Dory!
Dory:
Boing, boing, boing! You can't catch me.
Marlin:
Dory! Don't bounce on the tops! They will... not sting you? The tops don't sting you, that's it!
Dory:
Two in a row. Beat that.

Well, listen, fellas, thank you.
School of Moon Fish:
Don't mention it! Just, uh, loosen up, okay, buddy?
Dory:
Oh, you guys, you really nailed him. Bye.
School of Moon Fish:
Oh, hey, ma'am. One more thing.
Dory:
Yes?
School of Moon Fish:
When you come to this trench, swim through it, not over it.
Dory: [echoing]
Trench... Through it, not over it. I'll remember. Hey, hey, hey! Hey! Hey, wait up, partner! Hold on! Wait, wait, wait! I gotta... I got to tell you something. Whoa. Nice trench. Hello! Okay, let's go.
Marlin: [starts to swim over]
No, no, no. Bad trench, bad trench. Come on, we're gonna swim over this thing.
Dory:
Whoa, whoa, partner! Little red flag going up. Something's telling me we should swim through it, not over it.
Marlin: [comes back]
Are you even looking at this thing? It's got death written all over it!
Dory:
I'm sorry, but I really, really, really think we should swim through.
Marlin:
And I am really, really done talking about this. Over we go.
Dory:
Come on, trust me on this.
Marlin:
Trust you?
Dory:
Yes, trust. It's what friends do.
Marlin:
Look. Something shiny!
Dory:
Where?
Marlin:
Oh, it just swam over the trench! Come on , we'll follow it.

Repetition in Communication Among Friends
Dory: [[w:Sydney, New South Wales|Sydney]
P. Sherman 42 Wallaby Way ]. Why do I have to tell you over and over again? I'll tell you again. I don't get tired of it.
Marlin:
Okay, all right.
Dory:
Hu?
Marlin:
Here's the thing.
Dory:
Uh-huh.
Marlin:
Uh... I just—— I think it's best if I... if I just—— if I carry on from here by… by myself.
Dory:
Okay.
Marlin:
You know, alone.
Dory:
Uh-huh.
Marlin:
Without, without—— Well, I mean, not without you. I mean, it's just—— But I don't want you... with me.
Dory: [shocked]
Huh?
Marlin:
I don't want to hurt your feelings.
Dory:
You want me to leave?
Marlin:
Well, I mean, not... Yes… Yeah. It's just... You know, I just can't afford anymore delays and you're one of those fish that cause delays. And sometimes, it's a good thing. There's a whole group of fish. They're... delay fish.
Dory: [whimpers; crying]
You mean... You mean you don't like me?
Marlin:
No, of course I like you. It's because I like you I don't want to be with you. It's a complicated emotion. Oh, don't cry. I like you.
School of Moon Fish:
Hey, you! Lady, is this guy bothering you?
Dory:
Um, I don't remember. Were you?
Marlin:
No, no, no, no, no. We're just, we're... Hey, do you guys know how I can get to P. Sh——
School of Moon Fish:
Look, pal, we're talking to the lady, not you. Hey, do you like impressions?
Dory: [pauses; Marlin looks to fish-tades]
Mm-hmm.
School of Moon Fish:
Okay. Just like in rehearsals, gentlemen. So, what are we? Take a guess.
Dory:
Oh, oh. I've seen one of those.
School of Moon Fish:
I'm a fish with a nose like a sword.
Dory:
Wait. Wait. Um...
Marlin:
It's a swordfish!
School of Moon Fish:
Hey, clown boy! Let the lady guess! Where's the butter?
Dory:
Ooh-ooh-ooh! It's on the tip of my tongue…
Marlin:
Lobster!
School of Moon Fish:
Saw that.
Marlin:
What?

A Plan to Help Nemo Escape
Gill:
Okay, Shark Bait's one of us now, agreed?
Bubbles, Bloat and Gurgle:
Agreed!
Gill:
We can't send him off to his death. Darla's coming in five days. So what are we gonna do? I'll tell you what we're gonna do: we're gonna get him out of here. We're gonna help him escape.
Nemo:
Escape? Really?
Gill:
We're all gonna escape.
Gurgle:
Gill, please. Not another one of your escape plans.
Deb:
Sorry, but they--- They just---- They never work.
Bloat:
Yeah, why should this be any different?
Gill:
Cause we've got him.
Nemo:
Me?
Gill:
You see that filter?
Nemo:
Yeah?
Gill: [A visualization of Gill's plan is shown as Gill is speaking.]
You're the only one who can get in, and out of that thing. What we need you to do is take a pebble inside there, and jam the gears. You do that, and this tank's gonna get filthier, and filthier by the minute. Pretty soon, the dentist will have to clean the tank himself. And when he does, he'll take us out of the tank, put us in individual baggies, then we'll roll ourselves down the counter, out of the window, off the awning, into the bushes, across the street, and into the harbor!

Trusting a Shark in Unlikely Circumstances
Marlin: [Marlin starts to leave, but gasps to see an enormous Great White shark named Bruce grinning.]
Something's wrong with you. Really. You-you're wasting my time. I have to find my son.
Bruce:
Hello.
Dory:
Well, hi.
Bruce: [extends his fin; startles Marlin and Dory with his chomp and starts laughing]
Name's Bruce. It's all right, I understand. Why trust a shark, right? Hahahahahaha! Ahahahahaha! So, what's a couple of bites like you doing out so late, eh?
Marlin:
Nothing! We're not doing anything. We're not even out.
Bruce:
Greaaaaaaaat! Then how would you morsels like to come to a little get-together I'm having?
Dory: [in delight]
You mean like a party?
Bruce:
Yeah. Yeah, right. A party. What do you say?
Dory:
Oh, I love parties! That like sounds fun!
Marlin: [nervously]
You know, parties are fun, and it's tempting but we can't because...
Bruce: [steering Marlin and Dory with his fins]
Oh, come on, I insist!
Marlin: [nervously]
Okay. That's all that matters.
Dory:
Hey, look! Balloons! It is a party!
Bruce: [laughs]
Mind your distance, though. Those balloons can be a bit touchy. You wouldn't want one of them to pop.
Bruce: [Anchor and Chum, a Hammerhead and Mako shark, respectively, appear from a hole blown in the submarine's hull]
Anchor! Chum!
Anchor:
There you are Bruce, finally.
Bruce:
We've got company.
Anchor:
Well, it's about time, mate.
Chum:
We've already gone through all the snacks and I'm still starving!
Anchor:
We almost had to have a feeding frenzy...
Chum:
Come on. Let's get this over with.
Bruce:
Right then. The meeting has officially come to order. Let us all say the pledge.
Chum, Bruce and Anchor:
I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food.
Anchor:
Except stinkin dolphins.
Chum: [mocks a dolphin; Anchor laughs]
Dolphins?! Yeah, they think they're so cute! "Oh, look at me, I'm a flippin little dolphin, let me flip for you! Ain't I something?
Bruce:
Right, then. Today's meeting is step 5. Bring a Fish Friend. Now, do you all have your friends?
Anchor: [shows a quaking little green fish]
Got mine.
Dory:
Hey there.
Bruce:
How about you, Chum?
Chum: [a fish skeleton slips out of his mouth; Chum pulls it back in]
Well, I seem to have misplaced my umm, friend.
Bruce:
That's all right, Chum. I had a feeling this would be a difficult step, you can help yourself to one of my friends.
Chum: [grabs Marlin]
Thanks, mate. A little chum for Chum, eh?
Bruce:
I'll start the testimonies. Hello, my name is Bruce.
Chum and Anchor:
Hello, Bruce.
Bruce:
It has been 3 weeks since my last fish, on my honor, or may I be chopped up and made into soup.
Chum:
You're an inspiration to all of us!
Anchor:
Amen.
Bruce:
Right, then. Who's next?
Dory:
Oh, oh, oh, oh! Pick me! Pick me, pick me, pick me!
Bruce:
Yes, the little Sheila down the front!
Dory:
Whoo!
Bruce:
Come on up here.
Dory:
Hi, I'm Dory.
Bruce, Chum and Anchor:
Hello, Dory.
Dory:
And, uh, well... Well, I don't---- I don't think I've ever eaten a fish. Heheh.
Chum:
Hey, that's incredible, Dory!
Bruce:
Good on ya, mate!
Dory:
I'm glad I got that off my chest.
Bruce:
All right, anyone else? Hello, how about you mate? What's your problem?
Marlin:
Me? I don't… I don't have a problem.
Bruce:
Oh, okay.
Sharks:
Denial.
Marlin:
Aah!
Bruce:
Just start with your name.
Marlin:
Okay. Um, hello. My name is Marlin. I'm a clownfish.
Anchor:
A clownfish? Really?
Bruce:
Go on. Tell us a joke!
Chum:
I love jokes.
Marlin: [slight pauses; Marlin spots the mask. A flashback shows the diver taking Nemo]
I actually do know one that's pretty good. There was this mollusk, and he walks up to this sea cucumbers. Normally, they don't talk, sea cucumbers, but in a joke everyone talks. So, the sea mollusk says to the cucumber…
Nemo:
Daddy!
Marlin:
Nemo.
Chum:
Nemo! Haha! Nemo… I don't get it.
Bruce:
For a clownfish, he's not that funny.
Marlin:
No, no, no, he's my son. He was taken by, by these divers.
Dory:
Oh, my, you poor fish...
Chum:
Humans think they own everything.
Anchor:
Probably American!
Bruce:
Now, there is a father lookin for his little boy.
Marlin:
Ugh! What do these markings mean?
Bruce: [sobbing]
I never knew my father! Ah! Aaaaaaaah!
Anchor:
Come here, group hug.
Chum:
We're all mates here, mate.
Marlin:
I can't read human.
Dory:
Well, then we got to find a fish that can read this. Hey, look, sharks!
Marlin:
No, no, no, Dory!
Dory:
Hey, guys! Guys, guys!
Marlin:
No, Dory!
Dory:
Hey, that's mine. Give it back.
Marlin:
Dory, cut it out!
Dory: [the elastic strap on the mask hits Dory in the nose]
Gimme! OW! Ooaaah-ya-ya-ya-ya.
Marlin:
Oh, I'm sorry. Are you okay? I'm so sorry.
Dory: [a wisp of blood floats from Dory's nose]
You really clocked me there. Am I bleeding?
Marlin:
Ohh!
Dory:
Ow. Ow. Ow.
Bruce: [tiny pause; smells a wisp of blood; his eyes turn completely black]
Dory, are you okay…? OH! Ooh, that's good.
Chum and Anchor: [gasp]
Intervention!
Bruce:
Just a bite!
Anchor:
Now, you hold it together, mate!
Chum:
Remember, Bruce, fish are friends, not food!
Bruce: [breaks free]
Food!
Marlin:
Dory, look out!
Dory:
Aah!
Bruce: [pursues after them.]
I'm having fish tonight!
Chum:
Remember the steps, mate! The steps!
Bruce: [lunges upward]
Just one bite!
Bruce:
G'day. Grr!
Marlin:
There's no way out! There's gotta be a way to escape.
Dory:
Who is it?
Marlin:
Dory, help me find a way out!
Dory:
Sorry, you'll have to come back later. We're trying to escape.
Marlin:
There's gotta be a way out!
Dory:
Look, here's something! Es-cap-eee. I wonder what that means, it's funny. It's spelled just like the word escape'...
Marlin: [Grabs Dory by the flipper to escape the sub]
Let's go!
Bruce: [destroys the hatch; [The Shining (film)|Here's Brucey]
]!
Marlin:
Wait a minute. You can read?!
Dory:
I can read? That's right. I can read!
Marlin: [Bruce attacks]
Well then, here, read this now!
Dory and Marlin:
AAAAAAAAAHH!
Anchor:
He really doesn't mean it, you know! He never even knew his father!
Chum:
Don't fall off the wagon!
Marlin:
Oh, no. It's blocked!
Anchor:
No, Bruce! Focus!
Chum:
Sorry about... ...Bruce mate.
Anchor:
He's really... ...a nice guy!
Anchor:
Oh, no.
Chum:
Bruce?
Bruce: [sniffs; turns, looks at the torpedo; gasps]
What? Swim away! Swim away!
Dory:
Aw, is the party over?

Underwater Adventures and Unexpected Surprises
Nemo: [catches up to his friends]
Hey, guys, wait up! Whoa!
Tad: [he, Nemo, Sheldon and Pearl look over the edge of the drop off; pulls Pearl back]
Cool! Saved your life!
Pearl: [inks]
Ahh! Awww! You guys made me ink!
Nemo: [points at something]
What's that?
Tad:
I know what that is. Oh, oh, Sandy Plankton saw one. He called… He said it was called, uh, a butt!
Pearl:
Wow! That's a pretty big butt.
Sheldon: [sneezes; Pearl, Tad and Nemo laughed at Sheldon; laughter]
Oh, look at me! I'm gonna go touch the butt! Whoa!! Oh, yeah? Let's see you get closer.
Pearl:
Okay. Beat that.
Tad:
Come on, Nemo. How far can you go?
Nemo:
Oh, um, my dad says it's not safe.
Marlin:
Nemo, no!
Nemo:
Dad?
Marlin: [pushes Nemo back to the edge]
You were about to swim into open water!
Nemo:
No. I wasn't go out---- But, Dad, no!
Marlin:
It's just a good thing I was here. If I haven't shown up, I don't know...
Pearl:
Sir, he wasn't gonna go!
Tad:
Yeah, he was too afraid.
Nemo:
No, I wasn't!
Marlin:
This does not concern you, kids. And you're lucky I don't tell your parents you were out there. You know you can't swim well.
Nemo:
I can swim fine, Dad, okay?
Marlin:
No, it's not okay. You shouldn't be anywhere near here! Okay, I was right. You know what? We'll start school in a year or two.
Nemo: [jerks out of his grasp]
No, Dad! Just because you're scared of ocean…
Marlin:
Clearly, you're not ready, and you're not coming back until you are. You think you can do these things, but you just can't, Nemo!
Nemo: [hurt by what his father said; Marlin is shocked and visibly hurt at what his son just said]
I hate you.
Mr. Ray: [The kids swim off to the side as he swims over to Marlin]
♪ Theeeeeeere's... ♪ nothing to see. Gather, uh, over there. Excuse me, is there anything I can do? I am a scientist, sir. Is there any problem?
Marlin:
You know, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt things. He isn't a good swimmer, and I just think that it's a little too soon for him to be out here unsupervised.
Mr. Ray:
Well, I can assure you, he's quite safe with me.
Marlin:
Look, I'm sure he is, but you have a large class and he can get lost from sight if you're not looking. I'm not saying you're not looking...
Kathy:
Oh, my gosh! Nemo's swimming out to sea!
Marlin: [gasps; Nemo stops near a chain of an anchor on the boat; Nemo looks up at the boat; Nemo swims up the chain to the boat; Nemo reaches the boat's underside, then turns around to his father; Nemo holds his fin up; Nemo angrily slaps on the underside]
Nemo! What do you think you're doing?! You're gonna get stuck out there, and I'm gonna have to get you before another fish does! Get back here! I said, get back here, NOW! STOP!!! You take one more move, mister! D-Don't you dare! If you put one fin on that boat... Are you listening to me?! Don't touch the boa.. Nemo!
Tad: [whispers]
He touched the butt.
Marlin: [enraged; as Nemo starts swimming back to him; [Kramer vs. Kramer|You are in ''big'' trouble, young man! '''''Do you hear me?!'''''; As Nemo rolls his eyes while swimming back, a diver raises up behind him, shocked]
You just paddle your little tail right back here, Nemo! That's right! ] Big…! Big...
Nemo: [turns around to see the diver, gasps, then screams]
Ahhhh! Daddy, help me!
Marlin: [Another diver appears right in front of Marlin, blocking his path to the first diver and Nemo]
I'm coming, Nemo!
Mr. Ray: [as he protects the kids under his body; he and his students take cover]
Get under me, kids!
Nemo: [The diver scoops him into a net, then swims back to the boat]
Aah! Oh, no! Dad! Daddy!!!
Marlin: [bumps a coral as he pants heavily while the second diver takes a picture with a camera, blinding him with its flash; pants as from his blurred point of view, the diver can be seen swimming away; as his view clears, he spots the divers swimming back to the boat; swims after them; pants; A propeller on the boat's underside spins, blowing him back, and the boat speeds away; pants as he looks around, then sees the boat getting away; pursues after the boat]
D'oh! Nemo! Oh! Ugh! Nemo! Nemo, no! Nemo! Nemo! Nemo! No! No! Oh! Nemo! Nemo!
Philip Sherman: [Unaware of him, he accidentally knocks his black and green scuba mask overboard, and it sinks into the ocean]
Whoa! Hold on!
Marlin: [swims to the surface, and looks around; dives underwater, then peeks out of the surface again]
Oh, no! No! No, it's gone! It's gone! No, no, it can't be gone! No, no! Nemo! Nemo! Nemo!!! No! Nemo! Nemo! No! No, please, no! No, No! Has anybody seen a boat?! Please! A white boat! They took my son! My son! Help me, please!
Dory:
Look out!
Marlin:
Whoa!
Dory:
Aah!
Marlin: [bumps on Dory to each other; hits the stone; faints]
Oof! Oooooh!!!!!
Dory:
Oh. Um, sorry. Sorry! I didn't see you. Sir, are... Are you okay? There, there. It's all right.
Marlin:
He's gone.
Dory:
It'll be okay.
Marlin:
No, no. They took him away. I have to find the boat!
Dory:
A boat? Hey, I've seen a boat!
Dory:
It passed by not too long ago.
Marlin:
A white one?
Dory:
Hi, I'm Dory.
Marlin:
Where?! Which way?
Dory:
Ooh! It went, um. This way! It went this way! Follow me!
Marlin:
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much!
Dory: [Marlin and Dory take off. The farther they go, Dory starts swimming away from Marlin. He chases after her until he gets head-rushed by her]
No problem!
Marlin:
Hey! Wait!
Dory:
Will you quit it?
Marlin:
What?!
Dory:
I'm trying to swim here. What, ocean big enough for you some like that? You got a problem, buddy? Huh? Huh? Do you? Do you? Do you? You want a piece of me? Yeah, yeah, ooh, I'm scared now. What?
Marlin:
Wait a minute.
Dory:
Stop following me, okay?
Marlin:
What are you talking about?! You're showing me which way the boat went!
Dory: [swims out]
A boat? Hey, I've seen a boat! It passed by not too long ago. It went this way! It went this way! Follow me!
Marlin: [stops Dory]
Wait a minute, wait a minute! What is going on?! You already told me which way the boat was going!
Dory:
I did? Oh, no...
Marlin:
If this is some kind of practical joke, it's not funny! And I know funny! I'm a clownfish!
Dory:
No, it's not. I know it's not. I'm so sorry. See, I suffer from short term memory loss.
Marlin:
Short term memory loss? I don't believe this.
Dory: [thinks; looks at Marlin]
No! It's true. I forget things almost instantly. It runs in my family. Well... I mean---- At least I think it does. Hmm. Where are they? Can I help you?

Oh... let's name the zones, the zones, the zones. Let's name the zones of the open sea.

Expressions of Awe and Agreement
Marlin:
Wow.
Coral: [first words]
Mm...
Marlin:
Wow.
Coral:
Mm-hmm...
Marlin:
Wow.
Coral:
Yes, Marlin. No, I see it. It's... Beautiful.
Marlin: [swims out of the anemone, before breathing deeply.]
So, Coral, when you said you wanted an ocean view, you didn't think that we were going to get the whole ocean, did you? Huh? Oh, yeah. A fish can breathe out here. Did your man deliver or did he deliver?
Coral:
My man delivered.
Marlin:
And it wasn't so easy.
Coral:
Because a lot of other clownfish had their eyes on this place.
Marlin:
You better believe they did-- every single one of them.
Coral:
Mm-hmm. You did good. And the neighborhood is awesome.
Marlin:
So you do like it, don't you?
Coral: [Leads him out to the edge.]
No, no, no. I do. I do. I really do like it. But Marlin, I know that drop off is desirable with the great school and the amazing view and all that. But do we really need so much space?
Marlin: [swims into the anemone, before acting it out.]
Coral, honey. These are our kids we're talking about. They deserve the fast Look, look, look... They'll wake up, poke their little heads out and they see a whale! See, right by their bedroom window!
Coral:
Shhh... You're going to wake the kids.
Marlin:
Oh, right, right.
Coral:
Aw, look. They're dreaming.
Coral:
We still have to name them.
Marlin: [swims out of the grotto.]
You want to name all of them, right now? All right, we'll name, uh, this half Marlin Jr., and then this half Coral Jr. Okay, we're done.
Coral: [thoughtfully]
I like Nemo.
Marlin:
Nemo? Well, we'll name one Nemo, but I'd like most of them to be Marlin, Jr.
Coral:
Just think, in a couple of days, we're gonna be parents!
Marlin:
Yeah... What if they don't like me?
Coral:
Marlin...
Marlin:
No, really.
Coral:
There's over 400 eggs. Odds are one of them is bound to like you.
Coral:
What?
Marlin:
You remember how we met?
Coral:
Well, I try not to.
Marlin:
Well, I remember.
Marlin:
Excuse me, miss, can you check and see if I have a hook in my lip?
Coral: [laughing]
No, no! Get away! Marlin!
Marlin:
Well, you gotta look a little closer because it's way in there.
Coral: [last words; laughs; Coral manages to swim outside of the anemone. But Marlin is right behind.]
Get away! Get away!
Marlin: [Marlin pokes out of the anemone and is startled to notice some rather unusual activity going on from outside the anemone. As a matter of fact, there seemed to be little activity at all. The whole neighborhood seemed empty, except for fish finding shelter in one of the bits of coral, as if some strange force was coming after them; notices Coral... and the barracuda watching from nearby; Coral looks down at the eggs in the grotto; Ignoring her husband's order to hide, Coral swims down to the grotto to protect her eggs, and the barracuda charges at her; swims down and attempts to save Coral, but collides with the barracuda. Its jaws snap, he dodges and slams into it again. The barracuda's tail hits Marlin hard against the rock wall, causing him to fall limp into the anemone as the camera quickly fades into darkness. The camera fades in on the anemone tendrils, swaying gently with the nighttime current. Marlin regains consciousness and quickly gets up; swims from the anemone and scans the darkness, then looks down and moves cautiously towards the moonlight grotto; looks inside the grotto, only to discover that it's completely empty; swims out of the grotto, still trying to look for her, noticing that Coral isn't there; Marlin sobs when he realizes that Coral and the eggs have been devoured by the barracuda.; looks down and gasps when he notices a single fish egg lying exposed on the sand, laying on a ledge below the grotto, and swims towards it; cradles the egg in his fin]
Here he is! Cutie's here! Where did everybody go? Coral. Get inside the house, Coral. No. No, Coral. Don't. They'll be fine. Just get inside. You. Right now. No! CORAL!!!!!!!!!! Coral? Coral? Coral? Coral? Coral? No. There, there, there. It's Okay. Daddy's here. Daddy's got you. I promise I will never let anything happen to you, Nemo.
