  • Blu : So, how far is it to this Luiz?

    Rafael : Not far! Thirty minutes, as the crow flies.

    Blu : I see... and how far as the macaw walks?

    Jewel : Bo-Bo here can't fly.

    Rafael : But, he's a bird!

    Blu : Not all birds fly! There are ostriches...

    Jewel : You are NOT an ostrich!

    Blu : Well... not technically.

  • Rafael : [as he watches Blu getting closer to Jewel]  There he goes! That's my boy!

    [Blu tries to wrap his wing around Jewel but stops mid-way as Jewel looks at him] 

    Blu : Ooh! Is it hot? I... I think I'm... I'm sweating! I didn't even think that was biologically possible. I get... look?

    [he holds up his wing] 

    Jewel : Oh. Wow.

    Nico : [as they watch Blu make a fool of himself]  Yeah! That's your boy, alright.

    Rafael : Okay, so he needs a little help. Well, come on. Let's give him some. Set the mood.

    Pedro : Alright, look. I'm on it. I know how to set the mood. Check it out!

    [he starts dancing and rapping] 

    Pedro : Get it-get it-get it-get it-get it-get it girl! Get-ge-get-ge-get it girl! Take her, take her to the flow! Show her, show her how you roll! Drop it! Drop it! Drop it low! Drop it, d-drop it low!

    Rafael : Woah, woah, woah! What kind of mood is that?

    Nico : Pedro, Pedro, a little too aggressive. Not hatin' on your creativity, but I think I got this one. Follow my lead.

  • Jewel : Luiz is a bulldog?

    Luiz : You got something against dogs?

    Jewel : I do when they're drooling on me.

    Luiz : It's a medical condition.

    Luiz : No! No! Hey, amigo, we really need you.

    Luiz : She's mean, bro.

    Rafael : Luiz, come on! Please! Please! We need your help.

    [holds up the chain holding Blu and Jewel together] 

    Luiz : Hmm. I think I know what to do.

  • Rafael : [Flying alongside trolley, whispering to Blu]  Down here! Just tell her: "you have beautiful eyes".

    Blu : That's good! Great idea!

    [to Jewel, with confidence] 

    Blu : I have beautiful eyes.

  • Blu : This is the coolest place I've ever seen! You know, despite the obvious health code violations!

    Rafael : Ha-ha! I like you, nothing you say makes any sense!

  • Rafael : Okay, I need you two to get closer.

    [Blu and Jewel move an inch closer together] 

    Rafael : Closer!

    [they move another inch closer] 

    Rafael : Closer!

    [they move closer, standing side by side] 

    Rafael : Nice! Now put your wings around each other.

    Blu : What?

    Rafael : Come on, amigo! It's not like she's gonna bite! Will you?

    Jewel : We'll see.

  • Blu : Rafael, quit following me. You're going in the wrong direction. Isn't carnival that way?

    Rafael : I'm not going to carnival. No, I'm going home.

    Blu : But I thought you loved carnival.

    Rafael : I do. But I love my family much more. And that's a choice I made with this.

    [points to Blu's heart] 

    Rafael : Not with this.

    [points to Blu's head] 

  • Rafael : Eva, my love, I must take the couple to see Luiz.

    Eva : Luiz? Hmph! You don't fool me for a second. You and your amigo just want to sneak off to Carnaval.

    Rafael : Carnaval, that magical time when I met the most beautiful in the world.

  • Blu : Yeah. Sounds great. It's not like were just throwing ourselves off of a mountain... right?

    Rafael : Actually, that was pretty much my entire plan.

    Blu : What?

    Rafael : Don't worry, Blu. It's in your DNA. And if our featherless friends can do it, how hard can it be?

    Man on glider : No, wait!

    [screams] 

    Man on glider : Mommy!

    Rafael : Fun, right?

    Blu : Yeah... fun.

  • Blu : Oh Man, we threw down!

    Jewel : Yeah, we threw down!

    Rafael : You guys were like fire and ice!

    Nico : Thunder and lightning!

    Pedro : Hip and hop!

    Blu : Cheese and sprinkles!

    [Everybody stares] 

    Blu : It's a Minnesota thing...

  • Rafael : [as he notices Blu and Jewel starting to argue]  Okay! Okay! You know what? This is good. Just clear the air. Just be completely honest with each other.

    Blu : You want honesty? Fine. Fine, I can be honest. I don't belong here. In fact, I never wanted to come here in the first place. And... and... and you know what? I hate Samba!

    Pedro : [Rafael, Nico and Pedro gasp with shock and Nico bursts into tears]  Hey! That's a little too far!

    Nico : [to Pedro]  Make the mean bird take it back!

    Blu : Yeah! I said it! Every song sounds exactly the same.

    [he mimics the samba music and dance] 

    Blu : Tico-taco, ya-ya-ya! Tico-taco, ya-ya-ya! Urrgh! I'm tico-taco outta here.

    Jewel : Fine! See you around, pet!

    [Jewel flies away and Blu walks away] 

    Rafael : No, no, ,no! Wait, wait, wait! Come back! You belong together! You are Juliet to his Romeo! Sure they both die in the end, but you get my point!

    [Nico and Pedro towards Rafael] 

    Rafael : Ah, young love! Always so melodramatic. All right, boys. Go after her.

  • Blu : So, uh... how far is this Luiz?

    Rafael : Not far. Thirty minutes as the crow flies.

    Blu : Uh... and how long as the macaw walks?

    Jewel : Bobo here can't fly.

    Rafael : But... but he's a bird!

    Blu : Not all birds fly. There are ostriches.

    Jewel : You are not an ostrich!

    Blu : Well, not technically, but...

    Rafael : Wait, wait, wait! My friends, I wanna help, but to walk the whole way, it... it... it can't be done!

    [he suddenly notices his kids clambering around his wife asking after him] 

    Rafael : But hey, we might as well give it a shot. Let's go, quickly.

    [he turns Blu and Jewel around and walks away quietly; Jewel turns to look at the kids] 

  • Jewel : [referring to Rafael's children]  Oh! Precious, aren't they?

    Rafael : Kids! Seventeen of 'em! And one on the way.

    [shouting to two of his children shaking an unhatched egg] 

    Rafael : Hey! He is not a baraka! Stop shaking him!

    [turning to Blu and Jewel] 

    Rafael : They're giving me grey feathers! Oh, this papa needs a break!

  • Rafael : So, you two lovebirds headed for carnival?

    Jewel : Wow! Love birds?

    Blu : We're more like acquaintance birds.

    Jewel : And not even that! We're more like chained-to-each-other birds.

    Blu : Yeah. I... I mean... aaah!

    [one of Rafael kids pulls his feather] 

    Blu : What is it with this kid and feathers?

    Rafael : We have no idea. We're having him tested.

  • Rafael : Eva, my love. I must take this couple to see Luiz.

    Eva : Luiz? Huh! You don't fool me for a second. You and your amigo just want to sneak off to carnival.

    Rafael : Oh, carnival! that magical time when I met the most beautiful bird in the world.

    [he hugs Eva and blows an air kiss towards her] 

    Eva : Aah!

    [Jewel huffs at Blu with disgust] 

  • Rafael : [as Eva sings out of tune]  Like a river of the sweetest honey.

    [Blu and Jewel wince as Eva sings] 

    Jewel : Ooh! I guess love is deaf too.

  • Blu : [as he looks down the edge of a cliff]  I've changed my mind! Yeah. Uh, maybe we could find a... a bus schedule or something?

    Rafael : Come on! You're not gonna back out now, Not in front of the lady!

    Blu : Uh... huh! Okay, yeah. Yeah, yeah, sure.

    Rafael : All right! That's the spirit!

  • Jewel : You're sure you're up for this?

    Blu : Yeah. Yeah, I mean, well it's not like we're just hurling ourselves off a mountain or something, right?

    Rafael : Actually, that was pretty much my entire plan.

    Blu : What?

    Rafael : No. Don't worry, Blu. It's in your DNA. And if our featherless friends can do it, how hard can it be?

    [just then a human tourist hand gliding off the cliff shouts out for help] 

    Man on glider : Mommy!

    Blu : Fun, right?

    Blu : Yeah. Fun.

  • Rafael : [to Blu and Jewel who are standing side by side]  Now, you flap your right wing, you flap your left wing, and together, you fly!

    Blu : Uh... but this doesn't seem aerodynamically possible!

    Rafael : Ey-ya-ya-ya-ya! You think too much! Fly! It's not what you think up here.

    [points to Blu's head] 

    Rafael : It's what you feel in here.

    [points to Blu's heart] 

    Rafael : And when you feel the rhythm of your heart, it's like Samba! You fly!

  • Rafael : [as Rafael is demonstrating flying to Blu]  See, it's easy!

    Blu : Easy? Easy for you to say. 'Cause from... from here it looks really, really hard!

    Jewel : Hey, if you want to see Linda again, this is the only way.

    Blu : Okay, you're right.

    Jewel : Yes, I am.

    Blu : This is for Linda.

    Jewel : Right!

    Blu : Keep it simple.

    Jewel : Easy-breezy.

    Blu : Thrust, lift, drag.

    Jewel : Oh, come on! Let's go!

    [she drags him along] 

    Blu : Wait!

  • Rafael : [after Blu and Jewel have landed on top of a hand glider's wings]  All right, Blu! You're flying! Sort of. Not really. But do you feel it?

    Blu : Yes! I do feel it.

  • Rafael : [after Blu and Jewel have crash landed to the ground from Blu's failed attempt at flying]  You did not feel it in here.

    [pointing to his heart] 

    Jewel : [sarcastically]  You think?

  • Rafael : I'm gonna chew through my own leg if this doesn't come off soon!

    Rafael : Relax. If I know Luiz, we're right where we wanna be.

  • Nico : Hey, Ralfie! If it isn't the king of carnival!

    Rafael : Nico! Pedro! What up, family?

    Pedro : Where you been hidin' yourself, bird?

    Nico : Man, I thought you were dead!

    Pedro : Hold up! Rewind!

    [going towards Blu] 

    Pedro : Ain't that the bird from the cage?

    Nico : I think our love lessons went down smooth.

    Pedro : You work fast!

    Nico : Baby got big!

    Pedro : You was locked up and now you're rollin' up with a hot wing! Woo! I wanna be like you!

    Blu : Oh, no, no! It's not what you think. We're just uh... chained together.

    Nico : Hey, I'm not judging you.

  • Blu : [as they enter a club full of birds dancing and thumping with music]  This is the coolest place I've ever seen! Despite all the obvious health code violations.

    Rafael : I like you! Nothing you say makes any sense!

  • Blu : [as they've gotten away from the monkeys]  Man, we threw down!

    Jewel : Yeah, we threw down!

    Rafael : You guys were like fire and ice!

    Nico : Thunder and lightnin'!

    Pedro : Hip 'n' hop!

    Blu : Cheese and sprinkles!

    [they all stop laughing and give Blu a strange look] 

    Blu : It's a Minnesota thing.

    [they all laugh] 

    Rafael : You see? Nothing you say makes any sense!

  • Rafael : Pssst! Blu, down here. Just tell her, "You have beautiful eyes".

    Blu : That's good. Great idea!

    [he turns to Jewel] 

    Blu : I have beautiful eyes.

    Jewel : Aah... yeah. Okay, Sure. They're... they're nice.

    Rafael : [flying low, whispers to Blu]  No! Her eyes! Her eyes!

    Blu : Oh, right! Yeah!

    [turns to Jewel] 

    Blu : Your eyes. Your eyes are great. Not mine. I mean, you know, mine are okay. But yours, I-I bet you can see right through them.

  • Rafael : [whispering to Blu]  Blu, just tell her how you feel.

    Blu : [turns to Jewel]  Jewel?

    Jewel : Yeah?

    Blu : I've been wanting to tell you, that I... that I...

    [suddenly chokes on a floating flower petal] 

    Jewel : Oh, how sweet. You're getting choked up.

    [turns to look at Blu and realizes he's really choking] 

    Jewel : Oh! Oh! You're choking! Uh, okay! All right!

    [she starts giving him the heimlich maneuver] 

  • Rafael : [they watch in dismay as Jewel gives Blu the Heimlich maneuver]  Yep. That's my boy.

  • Rafael : [Blu and Linda have just noticed each other at the carnival]  Blu! Blu! We found her!

    Pedro : She's on some, like, weird chicken float.

    Rafael : Come on!

    Blu : Let's go get Jewel.

  • Blu : [in the smugglers' float]  Hey, Jewel?

    Jewel : Blu!

    Blu : I'm gonna get you outta here.

    Jewel : No, no! You can't be here! You have to go! Nigel is...

    [suddenly Nigel attacks Blu and throws Blu in a cage] 

    Nigel : Hello, pretty bird. So kind of you to join our little soiree.

    Blu : Oh, come on! You really think I came alone? I got three of the roughest, meanest, craziest birds in all of Rio right behind me.

    Pedro : Woohoo! You know there guys!

    [Blu sees that Nigel has placed Nico, Pedro and Rafael in a cage nearby] 

    Pedro : We're saved! That's right! That's right! That's right!

    Rafael : Uh... I think he means us.

    Pedro : Oh.

    Nigel : Ah, love! It's such a powerful and stupid thing.
