## Manny

* Boy, you really gave Daddy a scare! Daddy got silly! Daddy falls off cliff and go "boom, boom, boom"! Silly Daddy! Yeah!
* Guys do not talk to guys about guy problems, they just punch each other on the shoulder.
* After we save Sid, I am going to kill him.
* Sid, whatever you're doing, it is a bad idea.
* [to Ellie; referring to Buck] Maybe the deranged hermit has a point.

## Ellie

* [to Manny] This is the world our baby is going to grow up in, you cannot change that.
* [seeing the tropical paradise] We have been living above an entire world, and we did not even know it!
* [last lines; to Peaches] That is right, sweetheart. Welcome to the Ice Age.
* Pregnant lady wants to live. Yaba Daba Doo!

## Sid

* I know what it is like to feel abandoned.
* And I am better off alone, by myself. A fortress of solitude, in the ice, forever. A lone, lonely, loner.
* [being pursued by an angry musk ox after pulling its privates] I thought you were a female!
* No! I am too young to be eaten!
* [has just been snorted into Mommy Dinosaur is nose] Whoa! Nice mucus! And I don't say that to everyone.
* [talking to Mommy Dinosaur about the kids] I say “They’re vegetarians”, you say “Grr”. I say, “Can we talk about this?”, you say “Grr”. I do not call that communication. [Mommy Dinosaur angrily snarls at him] See that? That's your answer to everything.
* This is the end of Sid the Sloth! [falls down lava falls]

## Diego

* Look, who are we kidding, Manny, I am losing my edge. I am not really built for chaperoning playdates.
* [to Manny] For the record, I blame you for this!
* [after wiping away tear] So I am not made of stone.
* [Upon coming across an ankylosaurus shaking with fright and hiding from Rudy] Wuss!

## Buck

* [greeting everyone] The name is Buck. Short for Buckminister. Long for Buh. Hmm, A little Dull ...
* What are you doing here?
* [after he's asked if he saw Sid] Well... he is dead. Welcome to my world. Now, go home. Off your pop.
* If you go in there, you will find your friend... [ominously] in the afterlife!
* [examining sand] Yeah, mmm. Yeah. Mommy Dinosaur carrying her three babies, and some floppy green thing (Sid).
* No, not really. I saw them came through earlier. She is headed for Lava Falls. That is where they care for the newborn. To get there, you must through the Jungle of Misery. Across the Chasm of Dead. To the Plates of Woe.
* [after saving Manny and Diego from a carnivorous plant] Pfft. Tourists.
* [listing his rules to the rescue group] Rule number one: Always listen to Buck! Rule number two: Stay in the middle of the trail! Rule number three... [pauses ominously as Crash and Eddie cringe] ...He who has gas travels at the back of the pack.
* [sees a giant butterfly as it takes off] I knew that guy when he was a caterpillar! You know, before he came out.
* [Crash: Were you killed?] Sadly, yes. But I lived!
* It is like the old saying: "An eye for a tooth, a nose for a chin, a butt for a..." It is an old saying, but uh... it is not a very good one.
* [at night, after everybody else is asleep] Goodnight, Rudy.
* Mammals, we have ourselves a crime scene! A tuft of fur... half eaten carcass... hunk of... ugh, no! Broccoli. [almost throws up]
* Here's what I think happened: Dinosaur attacks Sid, Sid fights back with piece of broccoli. Leaving dinosaur... A vegetable!
* All right, all right. Good point. Theory two: Sid is eating broccoli, dinosaur eats Sid, dinosaur steps on broccoli. Leaving broccoli... a vegetable!
* Three months ago. I woke up one morning married to a pineapple. An ugly pineapple! [sighs] But I loved her.
* [to a bunch of giant butterflies] Shoo! Shoo! Come on move! [the giant butterflies distract Rudy]
* Don't you, see?! [voice turns squeaky] We're all going to die! [Manny, Diego, Crash, and Eddie laugh, including Buck]
* [squeaky voice] Here Rudy, Rudy, Rudy! I'm so lonely. [laughs]
* [to Roger the Ludodactylus] Snap out of it! Come on! Pull!
* Hello, Rudy.
* pop Goes the Weasel Pop goes the weasel!

### Rules

* Always listen to Buck.
* Stay in the middle of the trail.
* He who has gas travels at the back of the pack.
* Always have our heads examined.
* Ignore Rule #2 if there is a female involved.

## Dialogue

    Manny: Guys don't talk to guys about guy problems. They just...punch each other on the shoulder.
    Ellie: That's stupid!
    Manny: To a girl! To a guy that's, like, 6 months of therapy!
    Crash: Dude, you're awesome! You're like the brother I never had!
    Eddie: Me, too!
    [The Baby T-Rexes went onto licking Sid, but one bites his claw.]
    Sid: Hey, no biting! Nuh-uh. [the Baby T-Rexes start crying] Oh, oh! Oh! I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No, it's okay. It's okay. Don't cry. Why are you still crying? Are you hungry? Maybe you're hungry. [gets an idea] I know just a thing.
    Ellie: Do you think my ankles look fat?
    Manny: Ankles? What ankles?
    (Ronald screams)
    Manny: (catches Ronald) Ronald, where did you come from? [Ronald shudders, while pointing to the playground] Oh, no.
    Ronald: Aaaah!!!
    [After a Baby T-Rex ate Little Johnny]
    Sid: Okay, come on. Spit him out. [a Baby T-Rex shakes head "no"] If you don't spit out Little Johnny, we're leaving the playground this instant. One, two... Don't make me say "three". [a Baby T-Rex barfs out Madison] Well, there we are. A picture of health.
    Mother Aardvark: That's not little Johnny.
    Sid: Well, better than nothing.
    Mother Diatrtyma: Oh, Madison! [takes Madison out of the scene]
    Sid: Come on, barf him up.
    Manny: [he and Ellie arrive] Sid.
    Sid: Oh, hey. Hey, Manny.
    [Baby T-Rex barfs out Little Johnny]
    Mother Aardvark: Oh! Little Johnny. (she takes Little Johnny away)
    [A Baby T-Rex runs away, causing the ice mobile to tinkle]
    Manny: No, wait! N-No! Oh, oh!
    [The ice mobile falls and breaks]
    Sid: Oh, I'm really sorry.
    Crash: [looking at wrecked playground] This place is totaled.
    Eddie: And we didn't wreck it.
    Crash: We're losing our touch, bro.
    Sid: Well, the important thing is that no one got hurt. Except for that guy...and, and those three. And her.
    Manny: [spots a Baby T-Rex pursuing a mammal, then turns to Sid] I told you to take them back, and you kept them. Now look what they've done.
    Sid: Okay, granted, we do have some discipline issues.
    Manny: Eating kids is not a discipline issue.
    Sid: But he spit them out.
    Manny: [delighted] Well, that's super. Let's give him a gold star. Kid of the week! [turns sternly] They don't belong here, Sid. Whatever they are, wherever you found them, take them back.
    Sid: But Manny, I'm not getting rid of my kids.
    Ellie: [seeing the T-Rex] I thought those guys were extinct!
    Manny: Well, then that is one angry fossil, Sid!
    Sid: Come on, inside, inside.
    Sid: Shh. No, no, no, don't cry. [Momma T-Rex turn to see him singing] We are poor little lambs. We lost our way. Bah, bah, BAAAH!
    [Momma T-Rex grabs the rock to reveal Sid with the baby dinosaurs and approaches him]
    Manny: [as Sid guards the three baby Tyrannosaurs from the mother] Sid! Give them to her! She's their mother!
    Sid: How do I know she's their mother?!
    Manny: What do you want, a birth certificate?! She's a dinosaur!
    Sid: Well, I put the blood, sweat and tears to raise them!
    Manny: For a day! Give them back, you lunatic!
    Sid: [to Momma T-Rex] Look, these are my kids! And you got to have to go through me to get them! [Momma T-Rex roars into Sid's face] AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
    [Then Momma T-Rex carries Sid and the babies away.]
    Ellie: Sid!
    Manny: Sid!
    Sid: HELP!!!
    [Scene cuts to Diego walking alone. The Gazelle he was pursuing earlier sprints past him in a panic]
    Gazelle: Run!
    Diego: Don’t you have anything better to do? [narrowly avoids being stomped on by Momma T-Rex. He watches as the dinosaur stomps off carrying Sid in her mouth]
    Sid: Help!
    Diego: Sid?
    [After Diego enters to save Crash and Eddie from ankylosaurus]
    Manny: Diego?! What are you doing here?!
    Diego: Sightseeing! I'm looking for Sid, same as you!
    Manny: Well, aren't you noble?!
    Ellie: This is not the time, guys! We need all the help we can get!
    Buck: What are you doing here?
    Ellie: Our friend was taken by a dinosaur.
    Buck: Well...he's dead. Welcome to my world! Now, uh, go home. Off you pop!
    Ellie: Not without Sid.
    Manny: Ellie, wait, maybe the deranged hermit has a point.
    Ellie: Manny, we came this far, we're gonna find him.
    [Manny shrieks]
    Buck: [drops down in front of Manny] If you go in there, you'll find your friend... [dramatically zooms in on his face; ominously] IN THE AFTERLIFE.
    Buck: [eats the sand then spits it out] Yeah, um. Mommy Dinosaur carrying her three babies and some floppy green thing.
    Manny: Yeah, we're friends with the floppy green thing.
    Diego: You got all that from the tracks?
    Buck: [stopping Manny and the herd from moving on] Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Whoa! What, you-you think this is some sort of tropical getaway? You can't protect your mate, mate. What are you gonna do with those-those flimsy tusks when you run into the Beast? I call him...RUDY.
    Manny: Oh, good. Good. I was worried it was something intimidating, like "Sheldon" or "Tim".
    Crash: Wait. You mean there's something bigger than Mommy Dinosaur?
    Buck: Aye.
    Eddie: "Eye"?
    Buck: Aye-aye! He's the one that gave me this! [pointing to his missing eye, which is covered in a patch]
    Eddie: Whoa! He gave you that patch...?!
    Crash: For free?! That's so cool!
    Eddie: Yeah! [starts shaking Crash] Maybe he'll give us one, too! [Crash and Eddie both laugh, high-five and humming along] Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo!
    Manny: [to a dumbfounded Buck] Welcome to my world.
    Buck: Abandon all hope. Ye who enters there...
    Manny: Alright, we get it! Doom and despair, yada, yada, yada.
    [Scrat is still stuck from the sticky tar hanging on a tree, he walks slowly to the ground from the tree to get the acorn and breaks tree and rolls and gets the acorn and Scratte rolls the tree. And Scrat tries to get unstuck, but is stopped by Scratte and she grab the acorn slowly, Scrat whimpers, Scratte smiles and giggles, grabs the acorn and rips off Scrat’s belly. Scrat screaming]
    Crash: It sounds like a Jungle of Misery of me.
    Ellie: (gasps) Hold on.
    Manny: Why? What’s wrong? Peaches?
    Ellie: What? No.
    Diego: [to Manny, about possibly staying] This is my kind of place.
    Buck: [pick up a rock like it's a phone] Hello? No... No, I can't talk right now... Yeah, no, I'm trying to recover a dead sloth. [sticks his knife in a tree and gives the "1 minute please" finger] No, they're following ME! I know, they think I'm crazy! [looks at Diego and Manny] O-Okay...We're going into the Chasm of Death, I'm going to loose you. [quietly] Yeah, I love you, too. Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye! [throws the rock aside] Okay, follow me!
    Manny: [to Diego] That's you in 3 weeks.
    Eddie: So, how did they come up with Chasm of Death?
    Buck: We tried "Big Smelly Crack". But, uh, that just made everybody giggle.
    [The ribcage tram gets stuck midway down the chasm, forcing Manny, Diego, Crash, and Eddie to hold their breath]
    Eddie: [can't hold his breath any longer] I can't take it anymore.
    Crash: [points to Eddie] He breathed it! [gasps] And now I'm breathing it!
    [Crash and Eddie start choking for a few seconds]
    Eddie: [in squeaky voice] Hey! We're not dead.
    Crash: [also in squeaky voice] You sound ridiculous!
    Eddie: Me? You should hear you. [they both start laughing] All right, all right. And a 1, and a 2.
    Crash and Eddie: [singing] ♪ Christmas, Christmas time is here. ♪
    Manny: [while holding breath] Stop! Are you crazy?!
    [Crash and Eddie giggle, while Diego takes a breath of the gas]
    Diego: [in high-pitched voice] It's not poison. Huh? [laughs, Crash and Eddie laugh as well]
    Crash: That is so disturbing!
    Buck: Stop laughing! All of you.
    Crash: [imitating Buck] "Stop laughing! All of you!"
    [Crash and Eddie laugh some more, and then shush]
    Manny: [in squeaky voice, imitating Buck] "What's rule #1?"
    [They all laugh while Buck scowls at them]
    Ellie: They're just laughing. What's so bad about that?
    Buck: They died laughing! [points to a bunch of skeletons on the ground below with jaws agape]
    Ellie: [gasps] Stop laughing!
    Manny: You know what's funny, though? We're trying to save Sid, and now we're all going to die!
    [They all laugh hysterically]
    Eddie: And I don't even like Sid!
    Crash: Who does?! He's an idiot!
    [They laugh some more]
    Diego: Thanks for getting me into this mess. It's the most fun I've had in years.
    Manny: [sarcastically] Thank you for deserting the herd. That was totally super. [pauses; they all laugh yet again until a thud is heard; reaches up and tickles Buck with his trunk] Coochie-coochie-coo!
    Buck: Stop that! [gasps] Don't you see? [in squeaky voice] We're all gonna die!
    [Everyone laughs, including Buck]
    Ellie: [sighs] We got to do everything, huh? [pulls down a tree, bringing the tram down towards her]
    Eddie: Sometimes, I wet my bed!
    Crash: That's all right. Sometimes, I wet your bed!
    [They all laugh once more until they fall off the tram and see Ellie glaring at them]
    Manny: [in normal voice] Uh...I'm not sure how much of that you could hear.
    Ellie: Oh, I heard all of it.
    Manny: Right. Yeah.
    Eddie: [in normal voice] You wet my bed?
    Crash: [in normal voice] That was gas talk, dude.
    Manny: Well, uh, better get moving.
    [Buck laughs hysterically in the Chasm of Death]
    Diego: [in normal voice] Aren't we forgetting something?
    Buck: [squeaky voice] Here, Rudy, Rudy, Rudy! [laughs] I'm so lonely.
    Buck: Through the Plates of Woe.
    Crash and Eddie: Whoa.
    [To the defeated pterosaur they've inflated float about like a balloon]
    Crash: Yeah!
    Eddie: Hasta la vista, birdie!
    Eddie: Do you think the beast would find Sid?
    Crash: Or more importantly, us?
    Buck: Rudy? Are you joking? He's relentless! He knows all! Sees all! Eats all! So that's a "yes". [Crash points to a scary face] Hey! Get off my lawn! Go on, shoo! [the face, which is really a giant butterfly, flies away] I knew that guy when he was a caterpillar. You know, before he came out.
    [Buck is talking to himself using three skull puppets]
    Buck: [as the First Skull Puppet] "They'll never survive. It's dangerous by day." [as the Second Puppet] "But it's even worse at night." [as the First Puppet] "Plus, their guide is a lunatic." [normal voice] What?! [as the Second Puppet] "You mean Buck? Oh, he's wacko." [normal voice] I am not! [as the First Puppet] "Totally bonkers!"
[as the Third Puppet] "And his feet smell." [normal voice] Shut up. [as the Third Puppet] "You shut up." [normal voice] Oh, you little.. [begins to wrestle with the foot puppet]
    Manny: [uncomfortably] He's strangling his own foot. Shouldn't we get moving?
    Buck: [stops wrestling with the foot puppet; as the Third Puppet] "What? And give Rudy a midnight snack? Not likely." [normal voice] The skull's right. Take a load off, mammals. We'll camp here. Now who's hungry? [as the Third Puppet] "I am." [normal voice] You don't need the calories!
    Buck: Everybody, stop! [sniffs the air] I smell something. [stabs a tuft of fur with his knife, and smells it] It smells like a buzzard's butt fell off. [smells the fur again] And then got sprayed on by a bunch of skunks!
    Diego: That's Sid's.
    Buck: Mammals, we have ourselves a crime scene! A tuft of plum...half eaten carcass...hunk of...Ugh, no! Broccoli. Here's what I think happened: Dinosaur attacks Sid, Sid fights back with piece of broccoli. Leaving dinosaur...a vegetable.
    Diego: Are you nuts? Sid's not violent...or coordinated.
    Manny: Yeah and where's the dinosaur?
    Buck: All right, all right. Good point. Theory 2: Sid is eating broccoli, dinosaur eats Sid, dinosaur steps on broccoli. Leaving broccoli...a vegetable.
    Manny: Buck, when exactly did you lose your mind?
    Buck: [thinks a moment] Hmm... 3 months ago. I woke up one morning married to a pineapple! [makes a face] An ugly pineapple! [sighs] But I loved her.
    Diego: Uh, Buck? I think you missed a little clue over here. [points to the Plates of Woe]
    [Buck and his crew went to the direction]
    Buck: Well, your friend might be alive, but not for long. Rudy's closing in.
    All: Whoa...
    Buck: You got it. The Plates of Woe... Or whatever's left of them.
    Buck: Let's get our sloth! [gets hit by a Pterodactyl making Roger knock out and fall down] We're hit! We're hit! Mayday! Mayday! We're losing altitude! [pokes the eye to Roger and gives the ropes to Crash and Eddie] Hold these! Oh, it tastes like fish.
    Eddie: Okay. That's just weird. [he and Crash yell] I love you, bro.
    Crash: I know!
    Buck: Snap out of it! Come on! [hits Roger's head] Pull!
    [Crash and Eddie yell]
    Sid: This is the end of Sid, the Sloth. [screams, falling from the lava falls. Pteranodon Roger catches him]
    (Sloth shouts)
    Sid: [Roger roars at him] Help!
    Crash: No, Sid! It's me.
    Eddie: And me.
    Buck: And me.
    Sid: I-I don't want to panic anybody. But who's flying this thing?!
    Weasel: Oops!
    Mammals: Huh? [whooshing through air]
    Sid: No, no, wait! Wait! My kids! [Momma T-Rex arrives and the Baby Dinosaurs miss Sid] I never even got to say goodbye.
    [When Ellie is going into labor]
    Crash: Can you try to hold it in?
    Ellie: [from off] Can somebody slap him for me?
    Eddie: [slaps Crash] Done and done. [dusts off hands]
    [Diego is celebrating having caught the dinosaur]
    Diego: Whoo! My paws are burning, baby. They are burning! I gotta tiptoe! Tippytoe, tippytoe, tip-
    Ellie: Excuse me, Twinkletoes? Giving birth here!
    Diego: Sorry. You okay?
    Ellie: Am I okay? Do you know anything about childbirth?
    Diego: No, not really, but Manny's coming.
    Ellie: [screams] Diego, I'm scared. Can I hold your paws?
    Crash: [spotting Sid on the lava river] Look! He's right there!
    Buck: Roger.
    Eddie: No, Sid!
    Buck: I know, Roger.
    Crash: Why don't we get Sid first, and then we go back for Roger?
    Buck: Uh... Never mind. [whips Roger in almost to save Sid, but the Pterosaur approaches the crew]
    Crash: Uh... Buck?!
    Buck: [gasps and all the Pterosaurs screeching to pursue him and his crew] Yah! [dodges the Pterosaurs and misses Sid in the lava]
    Eddie: No, no, no, Buck, Buck, wait, wait! Sid's that way!
    Buck: Tell that to them!
    Sid: Incoming!
    Manny: It's Sid.
    [Upon seeing Peaches for the first time]
    Sid: [gasps] It's a boy.
    Diego: That's her tail.
    Sid: It's a girl.
    Buck: Oh, well. The Buck stops here.
    Manny: We couldn't have done it without you.
    Buck: Well. obviously. But good times just the sa- [a gust of wind blows behind him] We're not alone, are we? [red eyes open in the cave; everybody gasps and Buck gets in front of them; Buck smirks] Hello, Rudy. [a huge albino dinosaur named, Rudy, comes out of the cave and shown his real height; Rudy roars] RUN!!! [Rudy goes after the herd, until he hears him] Over here, you colossal fossil! Looking for something? [Rudy licks his lips and realized that Buck's blade is his dino tooth] Why don't you come and get it? To the cave, go!
