Reno: Son of the gun, we’re only allowed to take orders from Santa. Why don´t you ask your South Pole comerades to help? I forget! They can´t fly. (He laugh) Merry Christmas down there, stuck on the land!

Female Reindeer: Merry Christmas

Reno:Cupid!

Alex: Great, there goes our lift home

Gloria: Skipper, you´re a penguin

Melman: And those reindeers have, like, magical powers.

Skipper: That´s exactly what they want you to believe. Private, give´em a little demo. The only thing magical about those North Polers is that tank full of sparkly stuff. Now, go find Big Red, and we´ll get this baby airborne.
