Lilo & Stitch (2025) - Quotes

Nani: Stay behind me, Lilo. Get back. Get back.

Pleakley: Don't worry. They're just scanning for deadly parasites.

Grand Councilwoman: We're here to retrieve this dangerous experiment. Soldiers, take 626 into custody.

Lilo: [as Stitch gets handcuffed while Nani tries to hold her back, preventing her from interfering; protesting] No! Hey! Leave him alone! Let him stay!

Grand Councilwoman: I'm afraid I can't allow that. This creature poses a threat to your species. We are sorry for what transpired here. Rest assured, those responsible will be brought to justice.

Jumba: [gets lifted off the sea by the spaceship while being re-arrested, and back in his original alien form; last words; gets clonked on the head] Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! How dare you treat a scientific genius like this! Hey, Grand Councilwoman, can you-- Ow! Oh! My precious brain.

Grand Councilwoman: As for 626--

Stitch: [interrupting] Stitch.

Grand Councilwoman: [confused] What?

Stitch: My name Stitch.

Grand Councilwoman: Stitch, then.... will be--

Stitch: Can Stitch say goodbye?

Grand Councilwoman: [surprised and hesitantly] Yes.

Stitch: [walks over to Lilo] Thank you.

Lilo: [hugs Stitch] Come here, Stitch. We're gonna to miss you.

Grand Councilwoman: [surprised] Who are these people?

Stitch: [smiles at Lilo and Nani who smiles back] This is my family. I found it all on my own. It's little a-and broken, but still good. Yeah. Still good.

Pleakley: Grand Councilwoman? Can we leave Stitch with his new family?

Grand Councilwoman: Absolutely not. The Council would require supervision, and who would possibly want to stay on this dilapidated mosquito farm?

Pleakley: [excitedly] Oh, oh! Me! Me! ME!

Grand Councilwoman: Ha! Ridiculous. I cannot risk the global panic that would ensue if this were to become public.

Cobra Bubbles: [stepping up] What if it didn't?

Pleakley: Oh! Oh! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah! He's CIA. He's very good at keeping secrets.

Grand Councilwoman: Our reconnaissance said you were going to tell your superiors about this. How could I ever trust you to keep it a secret?

Cobra Bubbles: [stepping up to her and shakes her hand to seal the deal] Your Highness... you have my word.

Grand Councilwoman: [after studying his face for a moment and nods; Everyone, even Stitch, felt sad at the fact that he might not be allowed to stay after all; until...; smiles; Everyone were overwhelmed with joy and Stitch's handcuffs falls off and he happily runs into Lilo's arms] Hmmm. You all have shown me that there is good inside this creature. However, I cannot reverse the council's decision. Experiment 626 has been sentence to life in exile. A sentence that would be henceforth served.... here on Earth.

Jumba: Look, look, look, look! I had a pretty bad *Ohana* growing up. That's not an excuse. I just don't give it a little context.

Lilo: [smirks; waves; activities Jumba's human camouflage device] A hui hou, hairy potato.

Jumba: [gets ejected, due to him turning into his human form, and is sent flying into the deep ocean below, screaming] Okay, okay, okay. And I can't propose that sometimes we need second chances. And that's just when I-- Wait, no!

Jumba: [to Lilo; frustrated about her caring for Stitch] Why don't you just admit that your little friend is a dangerous, freakish monster?!

Stitch: [as Lilo presses the correct button, freeing him] Also cute and fluffy!

Cobra: [handcuffs Pleakley] Agent Cobra Bubbles, CIA.

Nani: Wait, what? CIA?

Pleakley: Agent Wendell Pleakley from the United Galactic Federation. I'm a fellow government worker.

Tūtū: What are you doing here?!

Nani: Now, where is my sister?!

David: Lilo?

Nani: Lilo?! Lilo?!

David: They're not here.

Nani: I'm gonna check the back.

Tūtū: [showing up] What happened?! Where's Lilo?!

Nani: I don't know. She's not here.

Pleakley: [emerging from the broken wood; Nani, David and Tūtū scream at him; screams as well] Actually, she's on the ship heading toward...

Jumba: What's the plan, 626? Say you escaped the Federation. You think you're gonna just stay here with her? Live happily ever after on Earth? You're built to destroy 626, and you have! Look what's happened since you got here. Her family is falling apart. Let's just be honest. The only reason you picked her at that animal shelter was for your own protection.

Lilo: Is that true, Stitch?

Jumba: See, I don't think that's bad. I don't think anything you do is bad. I think it's genius. If you care about this little girl at all, you'll leave her here.

Jumba: Who is Mai-mai and Pai-pai?

Lilo: [bursting in] That's Mama and Papa's room!

Jumba: [blasts the door with his blaster and smirks evilly] Oh! That makes a lot more sense.

Lilo: [threateningly] Stop it, or else!

Jumba: [walks closer to her] Or else what? What are you gonna do?

Lilo: I thought I lost you.

Stitch: Stitch break family.

Lilo: It was an accident, like a mess up.

Stitch: [sadly walks out of the cage] But Stitch is bad. Stitch is bad.

Lilo: [picks him up and hugs him] You're not bad. You just do bad things sometimes. "'Ohana" means "family." And sometimes, family isn't perfect. But that doesn't mean they aren't good.

Jumba: [trapping Pleakley in the janitor's closet, after the Grand Councilwoman cancels their deal for failing to catch Stitch] It's time to do this my way.

Grand Councilwoman: We just intercepted a call from human authorities. Do you realize what you have done?

Pleakley: [innocently] Nope.

Grand Councilwoman: [Pleakley obliges as he takes off the shower cap] Play the recording. And take off that ridiculous hat.

Cobra Bubbles: [on recording] Code 51. We found something. Confirm.

Grand Councilwoman: And not only that you alerted the humans about our existence, but you still haven't captured 626!

Jumba: Grand Councilwoman, will all due respect, I'm not sure you know what's going on with 626. We have found, um… a glitch… Which is making it a little harder to get him off this planet. But don't worry, I'm sure I can figure out--

Grand Councilwoman: Enough! You're a glitch, you buffoon. I have had enough, Dr. Jookiba. You have exhausted my patience! Consider our deal terminated!

Jumba: [shocked] WHAT?!

Grand Councilwoman: [beats] No tantrums, Agent Pleakley is hereby deputize to detain you under Federation orders and escort you back to Turo immediately. Uh, hello?

Pleakley: Now? Right now?

Grand Councilwoman: No, later.

Jumba: You cannot do this to my work!!!!

Grand Councilwoman: [hangs up] That is not a debate. A Federation detail is on its way to clean up your mess.

Pleakley: [after getting out of the bathtub, while putting on his bathrobe] Did she hang up? Jumba?

Jumba: [lying on the bed while recovering from his injuries] Why would he protect her like that?

Pleakley: [bathing in the tub] You don't think they're kind of cute together?

Jumba: He's not a pet. He's an experiment and a dangerous one of that.

Pleakley: I just think he's a lot cuter than you think he is dangerous.

Jumba: He has sharp teeth, he has claws, I designed him to be dangerous.

Pleakley: Dangerously cute.

Nani: [as Stitch causes a little chaos in the kitchen; grabs hold of him as he grabs onto the refrigerator] We're taking him back, first thing tomorrow morning! Why are you so strong?

Lilo: Well, I wished for him, and it came true.

Nani: We said "one day." That was our deal.

Lilo: [points to the drawing of their 'ohana on the fridge] What's that say, on the refrigerator?

Nani: We are not keeping this thing!

Lilo: Ohana" means "family." Family means nobody gets left behind.

Nani: [Stitch opens the freezer door and hits her in the face] Or forgotten.

Grand Councilwoman: Oh, brilliant. Is it too late to vaporized the planet?

Captain/Pink Alien Girl: [excitedly] Finger's always on the trigger, ma'am!

Grand Councilwoman: No, no, I'm joking. What an adorable little psychopath.

Lilo: You know, you didn't even like that job.

Nani: [turns to her, not in the mood; unlocks the front door and they enter the house; Stitch looks around the house, oohing and ahhing, and shakes the water off his body] I don't wanna hear it. And I (just) cleaned the house before work, so please don't make a mess. Lilo, he's getting water everywhere.

Lilo: I'm giving him a bath right now.

Lilo: [while at the Lū'au; seeing that Stitch is gone; finds him at the drink bar] Stitch? Oh, Stitch? There you are. We have to be at the table. Stitch.

Stitch: [aiming a drink sprayer at Lilo, who lift her hands in the air] Cassa! (translation: "Stick em up!")

Lilo: No. Stitch, put… it… down.

Stitch: Pessa? (translation: "This thing?")

Lilo: Yes.

Stitch: Naaga. Bala meega? (translation: "Negative. Are you holding it?")

Lilo: You.

Stitch: [speaks alien language, then mimics a machine gun firing; imitates screaming] No, no, no. And then, uh… The…

Lilo: No.

Stitch: Huh?

Lilo: I'm going to give you on a count of three, Stitch.

Stitch: [poses like a cowboy in a showdown with the drink sprayer ready] Ooh, yeah.

Lilo: [Stitch, having no time for this, immediately sprays her with water, then wags his eyebrows] 1…

Lilo: [tries pulling 626 back inside the truck] Get down! Get down from there!

Nani: Oh, my God. Control him!

Lilo: [yanks 626 back inside the seat, and onto her lap as she laughs] I'm trying.

Nani: [626 takes out a disc from the radio, and flings it away into another car; The car swerves out of control as 626 claps, then laughs, and honks the horn; 626 scratches the seat; irritated; Lilo screams in realization, startling her and 626] Uh, no. Did you just…? No. No. Stop. Did he just-- Great, Lilo! Now I have to stitch it up. Whoa! What, what, what, what?!

Lilo: [626, now named Stitch, smiles] That's his name! Stitch!

Nani: [sighs; They see Jumba dragging Pleakley (in human disguises) across the road and scream for impact as Nani presses the brakes, screeching their truck to a stop] Lilo, you can't just do that, okay? Seriously. I thought I almost hit something.

626: [disguised as a dog] Hiiiii...

Lilo: [amazed] Whoa....

Jumba: Nighty-night, 626.

626: Jumba?

Stephanie Lum: Aloha, I'm Stephanie Lum. Breaking news on a strange situation last night. A local tour bus ran over an unidentified wild animal who terrorized a wedding. The creature is recovering at the Nā Mea Ola Animal Rescue. More on that at 10:00, and hear from the wedding photographer…

Jumba: [whispering to Pleakley, believing that 626 is now at the animal rescue center] Bingo.

Mrs. Kekoa: [waving while driving away] Don't forget the insurance.

Nani: [smiles; waving goodbye to Mrs. Kekoa; mumbling under her breath while turning towards Lilo as she starts to charge towards her; Lilo screams and runs into the house to the other door, realizing she's in so much trouble; takes a shortcut, scaring her and chases her down the hallway; grabs her by the shirt] Yeah, yeah. You got it. You're gonna need the heath insurance for when I kill you!!! Oh, Lilo! We took out the smoke alarm batteries. I'll show you "can't breathe." Come here!

Lilo: AAAH! Let go of me!

Nani: [Lilo grabs a pillow off the couch and hits her in the face with it, leaving her stunned; wraps Lilo around in a blanket, before she tries to escape again, and holds her down] No. Ow. Okay. No, no, no, no, no, no. Why didn't you wait at hula?!

Lilo: Because you weren't *FAIIIIR!!*

Nani: [Lilo licks her arm to free herself] Do you want them to split us up?! Because that's what's gonna happen if we don't get it together! Hey! Did you just lick me?!

Lilo: [storms upstairs to her room] Stop pretending you're my mom!

Nani: Oh, at least I didn't tell the social worker that I love jumping out of the window!

Lilo: Well, it's better than listenin to you!

Nani: Go to your room!

Lilo: [slams her door closed] I'm already in my room!

Tūtū: [sprays water on a goat with a water hose] Hey! Albert!

Tūtū: There she is, Miss Aloha.

Nani: [clenches through her teeth] Yeah. Not today, she's not.

Tūtū: Meeting didn't go well? I never liked that government lady anyway. Why is she always so smiley? Gives me the creeps.

Nani: Yeah, well, our future is in her hands.

Tūtū: [Nani slurps her Capri Sun and reveals her university acceptance letter she finds in the trash bin] Ah, ah. None of that. Your future is in your hands. And you're gonna have a very bright future cause of that akamai brain of yours. What? Your acceptance letter to your dream school magically taken out of your trash and appearing in your bag at your place of work? Ooh, that's a sign, girl.

Nani: Will you stop with this?

Tūtū: That school is the best school in the whole world for that bionic magnets.

Nani: Bion... Marine biology.

Tūtū: Marine biology. And they already let you in once, and they wanted to give you for full ride.

Nani: Yeah, I know. But Tūtū, there's no way. Lilo needs me here.

Tūtū: You ever asked Lilo what she wants?

Nani: She's six, so no.

David: [enters with his surfing board; sees Nani] Sorry, Tūtū. Had to catch a few extra ones. The swell was... Hey, Nani! What are you doing here?

Nani: I live here. We're neighbors.

David: [chuckles] Yeah. Yeah, that's... that's good. Uh... The waves were crazy today. You know, I was like, "Nani should be here.", cause you're always, like, and I miss shredding you. I mean, I miss... I miss seeing you shred waves, so... Yeah. I've always loved watching you. Not to say that--

Tūtū: [interrupts] Well said, David.

Nani: Well...

David: So, like... when are you gonna go surfing?

Nani: [turns to go back inside] Maybe when Lilo turns 18. Enjoy the surf.

Tūtū: [Nani heads inside the house] Bebeh. Now, make up with your sister, yeah? You need anything, you just ask, okay? We're not just neighbors, you know. We're ohana.

David: Yeah, I mean, if you...

Tūtū: [drives away in her dune buggy] No, no! No, David, you've said enough.

Mrs. Kekoa: Nani, we both know this didn't go well today. I can see you're trying, but you're too smart for me to beat around the bush here. I know it hasn't been that long since your parents passed away, but my job is to make sure that Lilo is in a stable environment. And I can't say that in good conscience right now. Listen, I know this is a lot. You're practically a kid yourself. Look, you seem like a goal-oriented person. We have a new director coming into town next week. And I would really, really love to tell him that you girls have turned the corner. So why don't we come up with some goals to achieve by then?

Nani: Yeah, yeah.

Mrs. Kekoa: All right, here. Three things. First, I want this house cleaned, including laundry and a fully stocked fridge.

Nani: Perfect.

Mrs. Kekoa: Second, pay all those bills I saw in the kitchen.

Nani: Yes.

Mrs. Kekoa: And third, file for health insurance for you and Lilo.

Nani: Got it.

Mrs. Kekoa: Now if you do those three things by Friday, I might be able to give you some more time.

Nani: [pulls up at the house in her pickup truck and finds the front door locked] Lilo? Can you please open the door?

Lilo: Read the note.

Nani: [sees the note taped to the door reading: '''"Go away!!!"'''; groans and takes it off the door] I'm sorry I missed your performance, okay? Papa's truck died and…

Lilo: [sarcastically] Wow, that must be so stressful for you. How bout you just leave me alone to died?!

Nani: [sees Mrs. Kekoa, the social worker, pulling up in her car] No, no, no. Not now, not now. The social worker is here! You can pout later, Lilo.

Lilo: That's not how pouting works.

Nani: Lilo, open the door!

Lilo: [turning up the volume] I can't hear you. It's really weird.

Kumu: [as Lilo finally shows up late for hula class] Lilo, thank goodness. I thought you were gonna be on time today.

Lilo: I had to get a sandwich for Pudge.

Kumu: Is Pudge a friend in need?

Lilo: He's a fish. I forgot to tell you that.

Kumu: So, you're late because you fed a sandwich to a fish?

Lilo: Yeah. Pudge controls the weather.

Grand Councilwoman: Do not let the Earthlings discover your mission, or I will be forced to intervene.

Pleakley: This is a dream vacay. I have so much packing to do!

Jumba: Well, well, well, 626. What hideous, pathetic planet is caught in your crosshairs?

Jumba: [appearing while being escorted by two Federation soldiers; chuckles] Oh, look what a pickle we've got here. If only there were a brilliant genius around to help you catch that monster.

Grand Councilwoman: [enraged] You! You're the reason we're in this mess!

Jumba: And I can get you out, if you release me and give me back my lab.

Grand Councilwoman: Nonsense, we'll simply vaporize the planet. Captain?

Captain/Pink Alien Girl: [excitedly] Armed and ready, Councilwoman.

Pleakley: [appearing; dressed up as a cowboy] Hold it! Hold everything! Excuse me, pardon me. You can't destroy the planet!

Captain/Pink Alien Girl: [disappointed] Aw, man!

Grand Councilwoman: Uh, who is this?

Pleakley: [tips his hat] Agent Pleakley, Earth Expert, at your service. Howdy.

Grand Councilwoman: Earth expert?

Pleakley: I'm an expert of all planets, flora, fauna and fashion.

Jumba: [sarcastically] Yeah, his outfit screams "expert".

Pleakley: Oh, yeah. I'm researching Earth species that's half cow and half boy. It's very fascinating.

Grand Councilwoman: Yes, marvelous. What's your point?

Pleakley: Oh, uh, Earth is a protected wildlife preserve. Yeah. We've been using it to rebuild the mosquito population.

Grand Councilwoman: [sighs; Jumba smirks; to Pleakley] Crikey. Very well, Dr. Jookiba, you will travel to Earth where you will capture the escaped lab experiment known as 626. Agent Pleakley, you will be going with him. You are deputized to ensure he follows Federation rules.

Jumba: [disbelieved] What?! I don't need a babysitter--

Grand Councilwoman: [Pleakley looks disbelieved and took off his hat] This is all very dangerous and it's quite frankly, you'll die. Do you accept?

Pleakley: [excitedly] With every heart in my body, Of course I accept! I'm going to Earth!!!

Grand Councilwoman: [first lines; the alien council gasps in horror; Experiment 626, a blue koala-like alien with four arms, two antennas on his head, three spikes on his back, and wearing a red jumpsuit, reveals himself in the canister as he wakes up] We have apprehended a dangerous threat in one of our very own labs. Quiet! We believe that this… this… monstrosity… is the product of illegal genetic experimentation.

Robot: What deranged lunatic would create something like this?

Jumba: [brought in by two intergalactic soldiers, handcuffed; clears throat] I prefer "deranged genius," but thank you for the introduction.

Grand Councilwoman: Dr. Jumba Jookiba, you were tasked with safely studying biological threats, not creating them.

Jumba: [626 is seen breaking out of the canister with incredible strength; we see 626 getting zap by laser ...more like tickling him since he is fireproof and bulletproof] A threat? Experiment 626 is our Federation's most sophisticated weapon. 626 is unstoppable… indestructible… smarter than 100 super computers!

626: [now seen playing a game of chess with him] Tooba. (translation: "Checkmate.")

Jumba: [frustrated, while knocking away the chess pieces] Gah, I don't wanna play anymore!!!

Alien Council Members: It's an atrocity! Destroy it! I can't even look at him! He should be exiled.

Grand Councilwoman: [a microphone appears in the canister before 626] Silence! He did not ask to be created. Perhaps, if he is so intelligent, he has the capacity to reason. Experiment 626, show us that there is something inside you that is good.

626: [climbs down, walks up to the microphone like a shy child and clears his throat, everyone waits, Jumba glances at his creation and the court anxiously...after a moment of silence; speaks into the microphone; The whole alien council gasps in shock as he cackles wickedly] Meega nala kweesta! (translation: "I want to destroy!")

Grand Councilwoman: So naughty!

Robot: [while barfing out bolts and screws] Throwing up. Throwing up.

Jumba: [embarrassed] I did not teach him that.

Grand Councilwoman: You have made our decision easy. He is clearly the flawed product of a deranged mind. Dr. Jookiba, your lab will be destroyed.

Jumba: [shrugs; not caring] Okay, just leave me 626.

Grand Councilwoman: And 626 exiled.

Jumba: [disappointed] Oh, come on!

Grand Councilwoman: Bailiff!

Jumba: [shocked; The experiment's canister get taken away downward, much to his horror] Wait! No, no, no, no! You can't do that! NOOOOO!!!

Cell Manager: [chuckles; 626 struggles and the guns move; He stops and thinks, looks at the two guns and they move; He gets an idea by drooling his spit and the guns aim but he slurps it back up before he does it again; 626 spits saliva at the Manager's face mask and the guns aim at him, much to his notice; removes his mask helmet and runs for it to save himself] Don't get any ideas. These guns are locked onto your genetic signature. They're not gonna shoot anyone but you. Knock it off! Federation strictly forbids to be gross. Don't make me say-- Uh-oh. AHH!

Lilo: [while grabbing a lei and putting on around Stitch's neck] Now, be, good! Be good for one second.

Lilo: You've got to stop causing problems, Stitch.

Lilo: [626 screams in frustration while grabbing at his eyelids] Don't you just love living on an island with no big cities? Nothing by miles and miles.... of water?

Lilo: [seeing a shooting star falling from the night sky from the window] Oh, my gosh. I have to make a wish.
