2	[[caption-width-right:350:"Click the note, Kronk."[[note]]WRONG NOOOOOOOOTE![[/note]][[note]]Why do we even ''have'' that note?[[/note]]]]
3
4	* Pull the lever, Kronk. [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Kronk and Yzma enter the laboratory she orders him to pull the lever but he pulls another one, opening a trapdoor under Yzma. This even became a RunningGag in [[WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewSchool the series]].[[/labelnote]]
5	** ''WRONG LEEEEEVVEEEEERRRRR....'' [[labelnote:Explanation]]What Yzma said while falling through the trapdoor.[[/labelnote]]
6	** Okay, why does she even ''have'' that lever? [[labelnote:Explanation]]Many people wonder why Yzma would need a lever that opens a trapdoor under the person near the door, seeing as it's counterproductive InventionalWisdom. Even Yzma herself asks herself why she has that one.[[/labelnote]]
7	* Woah! No touchy! [[labelnote:Explanation]]What Kuzco says when someone is close to him. He also says it in the video game when he gets hit.[[/labelnote]]
8	* [[DynamicEntry BOOM, BABY!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kuzco kicking open the entrance door to his throne room after his introductory musical number is often used to indicate a flashy entrance.[[/labelnote]]
9	* [[Creator/PatrickWarburton Riiiigggghhhhtttt....]]
10	* "It's brilliant, brilliant, BRILLIANT, I TELL YOU! GENIUS, I SAY!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Yzma triumphantly celebrating the genius of her scheme to transform Kuzco into a bug. In [[WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewSchool the series]] this became her CharacterCatchphrase of sorts.[[/labelnote]]
11	* I'll SMASH IT WITH A HAMMAH! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Yzma's EvilIsHammy approach to dealing with Kuzco, inhaling the scenery while plotting to squish Kuzco with a hammer[[/labelnote]]
12	* "I never liked your spinach puffs! NEVAH!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]The final breaking point for Kronk's service to Yzma is her giving an angry TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to him, in which he's wincing at every point... then she insults his cooking, and ''that's'' what gets him angry. His response below is a traditional response to this line[[/labelnote]]
13	** "That's it. She's going DOWN."
14	* "Oh right, the poison, the poison for Kuzco, the poison chosen specially to kill Kuzco, Kuzco's poison..." [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kronk's status as a ditz is firmly established by this exchange, where he's clearly trying to be clever and failing.[[/labelnote]]
15	** "... That poison?"
16	** "YES, THAT POISON!"
17	* "MY FACE, MY BEAUTIFUL FACE! I'm an ugly stinky llama, llama face!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]This is what Kuzco wails when he regains consciousness and sees his reflection and realizes he was turned into a llama; the meme can substitute any appropriate word in place of "llama".[[/labelnote]]
18	* "Gow! You threw off my groove!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kuzco's EstablishingCharacterMoment after the intro is dancing through his castle with a large and involved musical number, right up until an old man (later named Rudy) can't get out of the way of his grooving in time and Kuzco runs into him. Whereupon Kuzco immediately starts sulking, and a nearby guard politely apologizes to the elderly man and then ''[[DestinationDefenestration throws him out a window]]'' while the senior apologizes mid-fall.[[/labelnote]]
19	** "I'm sorry, but you threw off the Emperor's groove."
20	** "SOOOOOOOOORRY!"
21	** "DON'T THROW OFF HIS GROOVE!"
22	** "Beware the groove!"
23	* "Hey, I've been turned into a cow. Can I go home?" [[labelnote:Explanation]]A group of Yzma's guards get accidentally transformed into various animals like Kuzco. One turned into a cow, and asks Yzma if he can [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere go home for the day]]. She calmly lets him leave and then checks with the rest of the squad if anyone else needs a day off, before immediately going back to hammily ordering them to capture Kuzco and Pacha.[[/labelnote]]
24	** "You're excused. Anyone else?"
25	* "Yay, I'm a llama again!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]After a long sequence of getting transformed into even more animals, Kuzco briefly celebrates turning back into a llama again, with the same air as if he turned back into a human. To his credit, he quickly realizes that he hasn't really solved his problem.[[/labelnote]]
26	** "...wait."
27	* "How ''did'' we, Kronk?" [[labelnote:Explanation]]The following exchange is Yzma herself questioning how the hell she and Kronk beat our heroes back to her lair after Yzma and Kronk fell into a ravine. Kronk pulls out the same map that [[BreakingTheFourthWall showed everyone's progress in the previous scene]] and admits it doesn't make sense, and Yzma just accepts it and [[HandWave moves on without further comment]]. Fans starting throwing around jokes that Yzma and Kronk fell into a literal PlotHole.[[/labelnote]]
28	** "Well, ya got me. By all accounts, it doesn't make sense."
29	** "Oh well. Back to business."
30	* "Then, I bet you weren't expecting THIS!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Yzma invokes FanDisservice and looks like she's hiking up her dress, Kuzco and Pacha react with horror, and Yzma reveals that she was pulling out a hidden knife strapped to her leg.[[/labelnote]]
31	* "That's a harp. And that's a dress." [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kronk's GoodAngelBadAngel have petty spats while they're on screen, with this line coming from the Devil!Kronk mocking Angel!Kronk's instrument and outfit to discredit him.[[/labelnote]]
32	** "ROBE!"
33	* "The peasant! At the diner! ...he didn't pay his check." [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kronk has a CatapultNightmare where he seems to realize Pacha and Kuzco were right under their noses at the diner, only to [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Comically Miss The Point]] and then go back to sleep. Then subverted when he wakes up again a few seconds later and has the ''proper'' realization.[[/labelnote]]
34	* "But what does that have to do with anything-" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kronk's GoodAngelBadAngel reveal themselves to be both {{Cloudcuckoolander}}s like Kronk is, with the Angel!Kronk conceding to his counterpart because he can do a one-handed inverted pushup. Notably, Kronk himself questions what that has to do with the current situation.[[/labelnote]]
35	** "No, no. He's got a point." [[labelnote:Explanation]]This has spun off into a meme of its own, used when DumbassHasAPoint, JerkassHasAPoint, etc.[[/labelnote]]
36	* "When you [X] just right" [[labelnote:Explanation]]A Tumblr riff on a scene where Pacha makes an [[https://i.imgflip.com/1hnbox.jpg?a475152 amusing expression]] while boasting about his home village and saying: "When the sun hits the ridge just right... these hills ''sing''." It involves drawing other characters as Pacha and/or making the same face and hand gestures.[[/labelnote]]
37	* "Kuzco is my favorite Franchise/DisneyPrincess." [[labelnote:Explanation]]A phrase originating from Tumblr that's often said on topics relating to Disney movies. What bolsters this to some is that Kuzco is a fairly rare example of a PrettyBoy Disney lead who's written as an AntiRoleModel for much of the movie, in direct contrast to many of his Animated Canon brethren (especially most modern Disney Princesses) who are meticulously created to be positive examples for young children.[[/labelnote]]
38	* "A ''llama?!'' He's supposed to be '''''DEAD!'''''" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Yzma's sheer fury at Kuzco not being dead due to poison, instead being a llama. Kronk just regards it as a strange event.[[/labelnote]]
39	** "Yeah, weird."
40	* "Uh-HUH, uh-HUH, uh HUH!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kuzco celebrating himself for victories with a catchy chant.[[/labelnote]]
41	* "You really should have thought of that before you became peasants!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Yzma showing her chops as the new Empress by mocking a peasant supplicant for not having food to eat.[[/labelnote]]
42	* "Don't tell me, [[InevitableWaterfall we're about to go over a huge waterfall]]." [[labelnote:You do the rest.]]While tied to a log going down a river, Kuzco and Pacha's calm and deadpan discussion of the huge waterfall they're about to go over. The resulting exchange is used as the page quote for InevitableWaterfall.[[/labelnote]]
43	** "Yep."
44	** "Sharp rocks at the bottom?"
45	** "Most likely."
46	** "Bring it on."
47	* "You look more like my great-great-great-great..." [[OverlyLongGag etc.]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Tipo's reaction to Yzma claiming she's related to his family and that she's his aunt is to say that she looks more like great-great-great etc. aunt, due to how ancient she looks.[[/labelnote]]
48	* "Oh yeah, it's all coming together!" [[labelnote:Explanation]] The quote that follows Kronk's EurekaMoment about the villager in the diner, complete with an accompanying close-up.[[/labelnote]]
49	* "Happy, happy birthday, from all of us to you..." [[labelnote:Explanation]]The [[HappyBirthdayToYou birthday song]] sung in this movie is so popular that several establishments in real life have used it as a birthday song ([[OlderThanTheyThink it also predates the film]]).[[/labelnote]]
50	* "[[CasualDangerDialogue That's another one for]] [[SignsOfTheEndTimes Apocalypse Bingo!]]" [[labelnote:Explanation]]An image of Kronk checking off his "Exotic Bird Bingo" with this caption is often used when a disaster or event that spelled doom for the earth occurs. This was used very often during 2020's track record of events.[[/labelnote]]
51	* "It's like I'm talking to a monkey." [[labelnote:Explanation]]When Yzma becomes fed up with Kronk's incompetence.[[/labelnote]]
52	** "A really, really, big, stupid monkey named KRONK!"
