Ting-Ting: He's gross? Mei: [glaring] I mean under that. Su: He smells? [Mei throws a pillow at her] Ooof! Mei: I can see past my nose. [crawls over to Su and Ting Ting] Deep down.

General Li Shang: What is it with women and maps?!

General Li Shang: [barely awake] Mulan? Mushu: [still sounding like Fa Mulan] The man won't brush his teeth without a backup plan! General Li Shang: [awakening slightly] Huh? Mushu: [still imitating] I blame myself. I fell for those broad shoulders. I didn't realize there wasn't much sittin' on top of 'em! [the dummy's head falls off accidently, then he gasps as he places it back on] Oh, except for that garlic breath... [no longer imitating] Ooh-whee! That boy can peel paint! Oops.

Fa Mulan: Really, I just don't know what I'd do without you. You're the best friend I've ever had. Mushu: [chattering and gaspes] AAAAH!!!! Oh, I can't stand it no more! The only thing wrong with you and Shang...is me! I'm the one that got between you! Fa Mulan: [confused] What are you talking about? It's not like you made the carriage go into the river. Mushu: Now, that was an accident. Following several attempts at "on purpose". Fa Mulan: [slowly realizing] And it wasn't YOU outside Shang's tent. Mushu: [gulps] He he, you know how I gab?

Mushu: Hey, yo, where's my masseuse? Saving China gives me knots you wouldn't believe. Ancestors: [groans] Oh! Mushu: And what about my pedicure? Let's get jamming on the toe jam, people. And somebody heat up some oil. I don't know what we're gonna do with it yet, but it's gonna be good. Does a hero dragon deserve anything less? Draw my bath. Warm my towel. Let the pampering begin!
