Tulio: You know your macaw is a very special bird. In fact, as far as we know, Blu is the last male of his kind.
Linda: Really?
Tulio: Yes. And recently we've found a female and our hope is to bring the two of the them together to save their species.
Linda: Oh! Well, yeah! Sure! When can she come over?
Tulio: Oh, no, no! She's in Brazil. Blu must come to Rio de Janeiro.
Linda: [laughing]Rio. Brazil. Oh, no! No. No. No. No. No. No! I never let Blu out of my sight. He needs me.
Tulio: Oh, no! You... you misunderstand. It's all arranged. You will be with him every step of the way. And I will be with you.

Linda: [to Blu]I promised I would always look out for you, didn't I? And have I ever broken a promise. I'm scared too. But I wouldn't make you do this if it wasn't the right thing to do.

Linda: [in the bird sanctuary]So, where's Jewel?

Blu: I mean, I know how my feathers look, but I'm not that kind of bird. [just then a disco ball comes down, the lights are dimmed and Lionel Richie's 'Say you, Say me' starts playing]
Blu: Okay, I had nothing to do with that. But, that's actually a pretty good song. [Jewel gives him a look as he starts singing to the music]
Blu: Naturally... Yeah, sing it, Lionel. [Jewel suddenly jumps onto him]

Linda: [Linda watches on the monitor as Blu and Jewel struggle, thinking they're mating]Wow! That was fast.

Jewel: [sarcastically]Oh, I'm sorry, sleepy head. I'm trying to escape!

Jewel: The cage! Oh, what was I thinking? I wouldn't expect a *pet* to understand.
Blu: Pet? Did you just call me a pet? For the record, I am not a pet! I am a companion. And you know what? Do whatever you want! Cause tomorrow morning, Linda will come for me and this whole nightmare will be over.

Movie: Rio
Jewel: Incredible! You would rather be with a... a... a human than with your own kind!
Blu: Well, that human has given me love and affection for the past fifteen years, whereas my own kind tries to strangle me after fifteen seconds.
Jewel: Yeah, well, because of them, I've lost everything. You can't trust them!
Blu: Of course you can trust humans! [he hears Jewel make a noise]
Blu: Jewel? Jewel? [he sees a man hover over him]
Blu: Oh! Hi there. [the man puts a bag over Blu's head]

Tulio: Nice of you to join me for dinner. I often eat alone. Oh, uh... because, of course I work.
Linda: [laughing]I thought I was the bird nerd until I met you.
Tulio: Yes. Right. Do you have a favorite bird?
Linda: Well, obviously I'm a blue macaw kinda gal.
Tulio: [laughing]That makes sense. They are very handsome birds.
Linda: Actually, it's the brains I'm more attracted to. I'm not so impressed by fancy feathers.
Tulio: I know exactly what you mean. My favorite bird is a spotted owl. I've always been mesmerized by those big, round, intelligent eyes. [he looks at Linda's eyes which are big, round, and intelligent-looking]

Movie: Rio
Linda: [crying after finding out Blu has been taken]This is all my fault!
Tulio: No, Linda! Linda! Please! This is not your fault.
Linda: You're right. It's not my fault. It's your fault!
Tulio: What?
Linda: With your little bird talk! And that whole 'last of his species'! Well, you know what? Squawk, squawkety, squawk, squawk! Haah! [realizing what she's done]
Linda: I'm sorry! I didn't mean to curse!
Tulio: I... I don't understand. Sylvio is the best guard in the business!

Blu: [after Jewel has been caught and placed back in the cage with Blu]That was your plan? To take off and leave me? Gee, thanks!

Tipa: Goldfish? [Fernando shakes his head]
Tipa: Aw, can we keep him, boss?
Marcel: No! [he shuts the door in Fernando's face]

Blu: [trapped in their cage in a room full of the other trapped animals]Okay. Pull it together. The key is not to panic.

Jewel: Oh, great! And then she'll stick us behind another set of bars, right?
Blu: Yeah! I... I mean, no!
Jewel: Look, pet cages might work for you, but I don't want to belong to anyone.

Nigel: I was striking, suave, ambitious. Feet to beak. So bodylicious. Now I am wild. I am villainous and vicious. Oh! And malicious. I had it all. A TV show. Women too! I was tall, over one foot two! And then they got a pretty parakeet to fill my shoes. That's why I'm so evil why I do what I do! [a chorus of birds starts singing]
Chorus of birds: He was a super star!
Nigel: So young and vital.
Chorus of birds: He's ghastly!
Nigel: A South American Idol!
Chorus of birds: He's a suspicious bird!
Nigel: Who said that about me?
Chorus of birds: A very vicious bird.
Nigel: I'll have you rotisseried! I'm a feathery freak, with a beak. A bird murder! You think you're badder than me. I never head of ya. I'm evil. I'll fill your cheese balls with weevils! [continues his singing to Blu and Jewel]
Nigel: I poop on people and I blame it on seagulls. [we see a seagull nearby]
Nigel: It was him.
Chorus of birds: He's a nasty bird!
Nigel: I'm invincible. I'm unmincable. I'm unwashable. Unrinsable. Like an abandoned school, I have no principle. Full of Brazilian birds. All eighty million birds. I tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to make you. [to the chorus of birds who continue singing]
Nigel: Shut up now. Shut up! [the chorus of birds stop singing]
Nigel: It's just me. [to Blu and Jewel]

Blu: Not cool, man! Scary, but not cool!
