      • Cassie: There's this cosmetics company called January Rose and they do testing on animals. Marco: So what's wrong with that? A little lipstick never hurt anybody. Cassie: Unless they stick it in your eye. Marco: Ouch. Ax: They... stick it in your eye?

      • Jake: (in monkey morph) Man, I am dying for a banana right about now.

      • Cassie: Well, I don't have anything to wear. Rachel: Already covered. You still have that extra money from cleaning the barn for your parents last month? Cassie: That's only for emergencies. Rachel: This is an emergency. A fashion emergency! Let's go.

      • Marco: Dude, let me ask you something. How come you always get to be the cool things, like dogs and tigers and stuff, and I always have to be like, a duck? Jake: What do you have against ducks? Marco: Nothing. I like ducks. But why can't you be the duck? Jake: Sorry, man, but I can't afford the bill. Marco: Oh, heh heh, why don't you just let me handle the jokes, okay?

      • Marco: You know, I never thought I'd be saving the world from aliens before I was old enough to get my driver's license.

      • Visser Three: Well, don't just stand there looking at me! We have a planet to invade.

      • Jake: Rachel, we're in the middle of an alien invasion. Excuse me for not thinking about something as normal as a school dance. Marco: Yeah, Rach. Rachel: Maybe it wouldn't hurt you to do that once in a while. Marco: You're so inconsiderate, Jake. Ax: This is interesting. I have no idea what you guys are talking about.

      • (Jake is looking at pictures of the "space garbage" from the museum.) Jake: See, I still think this is a weapon. There's the trigger, there's the targeter. Marco: No man. It's a transporter. Jake: A transporter? Marco: Look, there's the signal button. And there's where you get sucked in and sent to some other planet. Jake: Sucked in? Marco: Sucked in! I know these things, Jake. (Ax walks in.) Marco: Ax, what's going on? Check this out. Ax: What are you doing with this? How did you get pictures of an intercellular rehydration and cleansing system coil? Jake: Whoa, you know what this thing is? Ax: Yes of course, this is -- all Andalites use these. Marco: So what does it do? Ax: What... does it do? It... it's quite private... Jake: Ax, come on man. Ax: It's... we... we use one of these when we... when we have to... go, when we go. Marco: There it is. See? I told you. It's a transporter. Right? Jake: No, I don't think that's what he's getting at. Ax, do you mean to tell me that we risked getting caught to take pictures of an Andalite... Ax: A receptacle, like a receptacle. Marco: A recept... Oh, it's a toilet?! And I touched it? Ax: Did you? Marco: Yes! Ax: I'm sorry.

      ADD NOTES
      • This episode incorporates plots from four Animorphs books. In 14: The Unknown, the Animorphs tried to investigate alien wreakage supposedly held in Zone 91 (like Area 51), which turned out to be an Andalite toilet. In 28: The Experiment, the Animorphs investigate an animal testing facility being used by the Yeerks and Cassie comments about the inhumane ways similar facilities test cosmetics. The plot of 29: The Sickness, begins with Rachel making Jake ask Cassie to a school dance. And in 42: The Journey, someone manages to take a photo of the Animorphs demorphing, only to later have their camera stolen by Marco.

      • Cassie: Yeah. For a minute there I thought I was going to have to go to the dance with Curious George. Curious George is the chimpanzee protagonist of a series of popular children's books by the same name, written by Hans Augusto Rey and Margret Rey.
