• Rolly : I'm hungry, Mother. I'm hungry.

  Perdita : Now Rolly, you've just had your dinner.

  Rolly : But I am, just the same. I'm so hungry I could eat a a whole elephant.

• Pongo : Perdy?

  Perdita : That witch. That devil woman. She wants our puppies. That's all she's after.

  Pongo : Don't worry, Perdy. They're on to her. Nothing's going to happen to our puppies.

  Perdita : But what does she want with them? She can't possibly love them. Oh, Pongo. I was so happy at first, but now I - oh, I-I wish we weren't having any!

• Lucky : Mother! Dad! Patch pushed me in the fireplace.

  Patch : Lucky pushed me first.

  Lucky : Did not!

  Patch : Did too!

  Lucky : Did not!

  Patch : Did too!

  Lucky : Did not!

  [Lucky sticks his tongue out at Patch] 

  Perdita : Please, children, don't quarrel.

• Pongo : What? 99? Where did they all come from?

  Perdita : What on earth would she want with so many?

  Spotty : She's gonna make coats out of us!

  Perdita : She couldn't!

  Seargent Tibs : That's right. Dog skinned coats.

  Colonel : Oh, dog skinned coats. Oh, come now, Tibs!

  Seargent Tibs : But it's true, sir.

  Patch : Horace and Jasper are going to pop us off and skin us!

  Perdita : She's a devil! A witch! Oh, what'll we do?

  Pongo : We have to get back to London somehow.

  Patch : What about the others? What'll they do?

  Pongo : Perdy, we'll take them home with us. All of them.

  [the puppies start wagging their tails] 

  Pongo : Our pets would never turn them out.

• Patch : That old Dirty Dawson! The yellow livered old skunk!

  [growls] 

  Patch : I'd like to tear his gizzard out.

  Perdita : Why, Patch, where did you ever hear such talk? Certainly not from your mother!

  [looks at Pongo suspiciously] 

  Pongo : [smiles guiltily at Perdy] 

• Pongo : Perdy, I've got an idea!

  [rolls around in soot] 

  Perdita : Pongo, what on earth?

  Pongo : Look! I'm a Labrador! We'll all roll in the soot! We'll all be Labradors!

  Labrador : Say! That is an idea!

  Pongo : Come on, kids! Roll in the soot!

  Penny : You mean you want us to get dirty?

  Pepper : Did you hear that, Freckles? Dad wants us to get dirty.

  Cadpig : Mother, should we?

  Perdita : [sighs]  Do as your father says.

  Pepper : This'll be fun!

  Cadpig : I always wanted to get good and dirty!

• Pongo : Perdy, I'm afraid it's all up to us.

  Perdita : Oh, Pongo. Isn't there any hope?

  Pongo : Well, yes. There's the twilight bark.

  Perdita : The twilight bark? But dear, that's only a gossip chain.

  Pongo : Darling, it's the very fastest way to send news. And if our puppies are anywhere in the city, the London dogs will know. Now we'll send the word tonight when our pets take us for a walk in the park.

• Pongo : Thank you, Sergeant, Colonel, Captain.

  Perdita : Bless you all.

  Pongo : How can we ever repay you?

  Colonel : Oh, nothing at all. All in the line of duty.

  Seargent Tibs : That's right, sir. Routine.

• Pongo : Perdy? We need to get these little nippers off to bed if we're going for a w-a-l-k.

  Freckles : We wanna go too, Mother.

  Wizzer : Can we, mother? Can we?

  Salter : We never get to go.

  Perdita : Come along, children. Bedtime.

  Patch : But we're not a...

  [yawns] 

  Patch : ... bit sleepy. We wanna go for a walk in the park.

  Wizzer : Dad, can we?

  Pongo : Better do what your mother says.

• Pongo : Perdita, darling, are you all right?

  Perdita : Oh, of course, dear. After all, dogs were having puppies long before our time.

• Princess : Just look, Queenie. Have you ever seen so many puppies?

  Queenie : Aren't they adorable!

  Duchess : Perfectly darling.

  Princess : The poor, little dears. They're completely worn out and half frozen!

  [Pongo puts Lucky down by Perdita's feet] 

  Perdita : They all here, Pongo?

  Pongo : Yes, dear. All 99 accounted for.

  Queenie : The famous Pongos. We were so worried about you.

  Collie : Been trying to reach you for hours. Afraid you'd been captured.

  Queenie : How did you make it all this way? And in such dreadful weather?

  Duchess : And with all those little ones.

  Rolly : I'm hungry, Mother. I'm hungry.

  Cadpig : I'm hungry, too.

  Freckles : Mother, we're hungry.

  Puppies : [chattering]  We're all hungry.

  Perdita : I'm sorry, children.

  [Countess whispers something into Princess' ear] 

  Princess : Do they like warm milk? It's fresh.

  Perdita : Oh.

  Rolly : Where, mother? Where is it?

  Freckles : Where is the milk?

  Queenie : [tenderly]  Come and get it, kids. It's on the house.

  Perdita : This way, children. Around this way.

  [Perdita leads the kids behind the dairy cows to let the kids feed on their mill] 

  Perdita : Now, don't crowd. You'll have to take turns.

  [Rolly tries pushing through his siblings to suck on one of the cows' udders] 

  Perdita : Rolly, wait your turn, dear.

  [Rolly gets on a stool to reach the udder but trips over] 

  Duchess : Don't worry, kids. There's plenty for all."

  [She feels her udder being touched by one of the puppies] 

  Duchess : "Ooh! The little darlings.

  [while the puppies feed on the cows' milk, Pongo sits aside as the Collie brings him a discarded sandwich] 

  Collie : Pongo, a few scraps I saved for you and the missus.

  Pongo : Oh, thank you.

  Collie : It's not much, but it might hold you as far as Dinsford.

  Pongo : Huh? Dinsford?

  Collie : Yes, there's a Labrador there. His pet is a grocer.

  Pongo : [yawning]  "Oh, I... I'm terribly sorry.

  Collie : Oh, quite all right. Quite all right. Now, get some rest and don't worry. I'll be standing watch.

  [the Collie goes outside to keep an eye out for Cruella and the Baduns. Pongo lays down to rest] 

• Perdita : I don't know what we'd have done if...

  Queenie : Oh, we're very honoured to be of service.

  Princess : We're only sorry we can't do more.

  [Pongo and Perdita are now fast asleep] 

  Duchess : Anyone who would think of hurting these dear, little puppies...

  Queenie : Shh! Duchess!

  [the puppies are now fast asleep with their parents, as a few of them try to make room for themselves] 

  Duchess : They're so dear.

  Princess : I wish they could stay with us for always.

  Queenie : Princess, shh. Quiet, everyone. Let them sleep, the poor things. They're so exhausted, and they still have such a long way to go.
