Quotes 

• Dave : Ruth, I know we had our personal issues, but we have got to set them aside and find Bo!

  Ruth : We have personal issues? Dave, you are a delight!

  Dave : I am a delight. Thank you for noticing.

• Ruth : Bo, where are you going?

  Bo : We've got a baby to meet! Come on!

  Felix : After all that, it is a baby shower! You were right the whole time!

  Cyrus : You had it right as well. It is a birthday party. Literally, it's the day of his birth.

  Deborah : Uh-huh. I'm gonna let them have this one.

• Bo : Guys, I carried a king on my back!

  Dave : We're never going to hear the end of this, are we?

  Ruth : And I hope we never do.

• Bo : Do you see anything?

  Ruth : Uh... What are we looking for?

• Dave : Looks like it's up to me!

  [flies up to the killer] 

  Dave : Nope! Too big! Too big!

  [flies behind Ruth] 

  Dave : Ruth, looks like it's up to you!

  Ruth : To me? I knew this day would come!

  [charges] 

  Ruth : For the flock!

  [the killer kicks her away] 

• Bo : Mary, you are in real danger! You need to hear what I am going to say extremely carefully!

  [It comes out to Mary and Joseph as just donkey sounds] 

  Mary : Ever feel like he's trying to talk to us?

  Joseph : Why is he here? Where did he come from?

  Bo : She's not getting it. Okay, new plan. Can you two act like dogs?

  Dave : What do you think?

  Ruth : Uh, yes. I do a great dog. Dogs are my fourth best animal.

  Bo : Great. Just follow my lead.

  [imitates Mary] 

  Bo : Look at me. I'm Mary. I'm so pregnant.

  [imitates Joseph] 

  Bo : I'm Joseph. I'm in a bad mood. Dur dur dur dur dur...

  Joseph : Wait a minute. Is that supposed to be me?

  Mary : [chuckles]  It's totally you.

  Bo : [imitating Mary]  Oh no! Here come the dogs!

  [to Ruth] 

  Bo : That's you guys.

  Ruth : Oh! Oh! Uh...

  [pants] 

  Ruth : Woof! Woof woof woof! Throw me a stick, and I'll bring it right back! Ooh, what's this? It's a tail?

  [chases her tail] 

  Dave : Seriously? We're doing this instead of the royal caravan?

  Bo : No, Ruth, you're a scary dog. Just be meaner.

  Ruth : Oh, meaner? You mean like...

  [makes an ugly face] 

  Ruth : ... THIS?

  Bo : Yah!

  [Ruth pounces on Bo] 

  Bo : Oh no! He got me! If only a certain donkey had warned me.

  [Mary and Joseph are still not getting it] 

  Joseph : There's something seriously wrong with those animals.

  Mary : I think Bo's trying to tell us something.

  Bo : Come on... come on...

  Mary : I think he wants... a belly rub!

  Bo : What? No! I mean, yes, always, but not now!

• Ruth : Those guys? Oh, yeah. They've been following us since we came down the cliff.

  Dave : Couldn't you have pointed that out sooner?

• Ruth : Hey, everybody! What's up? It's me, Ruth!

  [Ruth's flock steps away from her] 

  Ruth : Okay, I know you guys think it was crazy for me to leave and follow the star, but you wouldn't believe all the adventures I've had out there, and the biggest one of all is happening tonight. I made new friends, and they need my help, so this time, you gotta follow me.

  [the flock ignores her] 

  Ruth : Guys?

  [they still ignore her] 

  Ruth : [shouts]  This is important!

  [She stamps her hoof down, and lightning strikes in sync with it. This catches the flock's attention. Ruth looks at her hoof as if to say, "Did I do that?" Then a light beams down from the sky] 

  Ruth : Whoa.

  [the Angel appears before the flock and the shepherds] 

  Angel : Fear not. I bring good tidings of great joy, for unto you is born this day a savior... Christ, the Lord.

  Ruth : Told ya it was important.

• Ruth : Excellent climbing form, Bo! Be the wedge!

• Ruth : Have you ever been to Bethlehem before?

  Bo : We've never been anywhere before.

  Ruth : Well, you're in for a treat. The Samaritan Mountains are beautiful this time of year. Deadly steep, but great views.

  Bo : You've been to Bethlehem?

  Ruth : Are you kidding? I grew up around there! I know all the ins and outs, how to avoid predators and treacherous high cliffs.

  Dave : The treacherous cliffs!

  [laughs] 

  Dave : You're not seriously considering this, are you?

  Bo : Come on, Ruth. Lead the way.

  Ruth : Sheep are usually better at following, but I will do my best. Let's go, flock.

• Ruth : And now, our tour will continue past these pebbles on the path. Watch your step, watch your step, and watch your step.

  Dave : [to Bo]  I blame you for this.

• Bo : Ruth, you stay here and guard Mary. If anything happens, warn us.

  Ruth : Yeah. We should have a secret signal!

  Bo : Sounds great!
