"[to Tulio] What kind of doctor are you?”
"[to himself] Natural instincts (scoffs), there’s nothing natural being thrown half-way across the room. Well, I’ll 显示 him. [reading a book about flying]
Humph, I can do this. I just have to work out the physics.

I have adjusted for wind shear.
Positive reinforcement. Good. Okay.
Let's see. Flaps open. [opens his wings] Perfect.
Landing gear. [wiggles his claws] Check.
Tail flaps. [flaps his tail] Operational.
And actually...not bad. [as he prepares to fly for the first time] This is it! Let's fly! Just keep it simple. Thrust, lift, drag and wait. Thrust, lift, drag, wait. [speeds up to get to the end of the table] Thrust, lift, drag, wait. Thrust, lift, drag, wai...wai...wait! [gets scared and tries to stop himself, but instead falls from the table]"
