Snipes, you think you're so superior.
Snipes
Thuperior"; nice lisp!
Peepers
My lisp isolates and elevates me, and makes me a rare specimen.

[''snickers'']
Grand Duke
And the dog?
Hunch
Gone, wiped out, sir!
Hunch
Total and complete annihilation!
Grand Duke
Annihilation! Yes... h-h-h-how did you do it?
Hunch
Adequately.
Grand Duke
Uh, "ade-ade-ade..."? Wh-what's that supposed to mean?
[confused]
Hunch
Well, Uncle, we sucked them into an adequate pipe.
Grand Duke
A what?
Hunch
That's what it said. "Danger: Adequate Pipe".
Grand Duke
Oh ho ho, Hunch... come to Uncle. YOU IMBECILE! That's not an "Adequate Pipe" - it's an AQUEDUCT PIPE! It leads straight into the city! The Duke gives you one last chance, Hunch! Them, or you! Now get to the city!
[''With forced calm''; ''Hunch approaches; the Duke turns him into a green chicken''; ''Turns Hunch back to normal''; throws a meat cleaver down right next to him]

Restoration and Unresolved Challenges in Rock-A-Doodle
Narrator
Once again, everything got back to the way it was before. Old Chanticleer is back to stay, the sun is up, the rain is stopped, and the owls are gone for good. It took a lot of work. But, there was only one more problem wrong. Edmond. We just don't know how to help him. Edmond's mom was right, of course, but she never knew why.

Grand Duke
Hunch, no!
Hunch
Animation, it's music to my ears. Hold still, you little twerp! Aggravation, abomination, alienation.

Manipulating Perceptions for Personal Gain
Pinky
Yeah? Oh, howdy, boss. How are you? Uh-huh. Huh? You say a cat, a dog, a bird and a mouse? What is this? Some kind of joke, huh?
[''A phone conversation'']
Grand Duke
Oh, well, I don't think it's funny, Pinky. They want to bring Chanticleer back to the farm. You don't want that, he makes you lots of money; I don't want that, he makes me miserable
[''Talking on the phone'']
Pinky
Right, boss, and what should I do about it?
Grand Duke
Your chicken thinks they don't want him on the farm. Well, that's good. All you have to do is make sure he keeps thinking that. It's not good that the kitty and his friends should talk to your chicken. Capisce?
Pinky
Yeah, thanks a million. This has been most enlightening.

The Uncommon Tale of a Sleeping Sunrise
Narrator
Once upon a time, back before I knew how to tie my shoes, the sun came up. Now, I know an everyday sunrise may not seem like such a big deal to some folks. But, imagine for a moment: if instead of rising up- like this- one morning where you lived, she took a look around and decided to go back to sleep. It happened once to us. Let me tell you all about it.

Hunch: A Nuisance with a Sense of Humor
Narrator
Now, I got to admit as bad guys go, the Duke's nephew Hunch was more a hoot than he was horrible. But still, he was a nuisance and as we were tied up at the moment, we weren't all that happy to see him.

Identity Confusion Among Characters
Farmyard Bully
Hey, Chanticleer! Come down here!
Edmond
Chanticleer?
[''The Grand Duke arrives in Edmond's live-action bedroom'']
Grand Duke
No... it's not Chanticleer.
Edmond
Who-who are you?
Grand Duke
You put your finger in the Duke's face, remember? These are expensive, you little brat! But that is not why the Duke is going to eat you.
[''Throws his broken monocle on the floor'']
Edmond
Eat me?
Grand Duke
Oh dear, now I've gone and spoiled the surprise. Always doing that. But you see, we creatures of the night have worked very hard to make absolutely sure that that bird does not return. And you... you, with no regard for the feelings of others, have the nerve to call him back here by name! And besides, I positively loathe rock n roll.
[laughs]
Edmond
You're not gonna eat me!
Narrator
And that's when the Duke hit the ceiling. If Edmond wanted to bring Chanticleer back to raise the sun, the Duke was going to have something to say about it.
[the Duke literally hits the ceiling]
Grand Duke
Kittens are more digestible.
Narrator
Young Edmond was about to have the most amazing adventure he'd ever dreamed of.
