Krosp: I'm the emperor of all cats. Think about it. Cats can go anywhere. They're invisible. Nobody looks twice. Imagine if you could use them as spies— messengers— saboteurs. And I give the orders.
Agatha: And it didn't work?
Krosp: Oh, it worked perfectly. I'm the highest-ranking cat there is.
Agatha: Then why—
Krosp: Because they're cats! They're animals! They can't grasp complex concepts! Their attention span can be measured in microseconds! If I can even get them to understand what I want—they're all gung-ho until they fall asleep or see something move! It was a moronic idea!

Agent Double-00: You realize this man is a platypus?
Inspector Initials: They're American, Double-00. Just be glad it's a mammal.
Major Monogram: Ooh. Rrreow. Well, go get him, Agent P.
Perry: [salutes and runs off]
Agent Double-00: What? That's it? No files? No location? No contact? What kind of a mission is this?
Major Monogram: It was enough for the mammal.
Inspector Initials: Ooh. Rrreow.
