Russell : ...My elbow hurts!

[Carl, with his house high in the air, hears a knock at the door and finds Russell on the front porch]
Russell : Hi, Mr. Fredricksen! It's me, Russell!
Carl Fredricksen : What are you doing out here, kid?
Russell : I found the snipe and I followed it under your porch, but this snipe had a long tail and looked more like a large mouse.
[Russell's Wilderness Explorers flag blows away in the wind]
Russell : Please let me in.
Carl Fredricksen : No.
[Carl goes inside and slams the door. Russell waits uncertainly a few moments]
Carl Fredricksen : [opens the door] Oh, all right. You can come...
[Russell races past Carl into the house]
Carl Fredricksen : ...in.

[Carl just saved Russell, tied to a chair, from falling to his death off Muntz' Airship, and leaves him on the porch]
Russell : But I want to help!
Carl Fredricksen : I don't want your help, I want you safe.

Russell : A wilderness explorer is a friend to all, be a plant or fish or tiny mole!
Carl Fredricksen : That doesn't even rhyme!
Russell : [offended] Yeah it does.
-
Russell : [points to Kevin] I found the snipe!
Carl Fredricksen : [amused] Oh, did you now?

Russell : Do they have a lot of colors?
Carl Fredricksen : They do, indeed!
Russell : Do they like chocolate?
Carl Fredricksen : Ye... chocolate?
[he turns around and sees Kevin]
Carl Fredricksen : Gaah! What is that thing?
-
Russell : [off screen in the jungle] Mr. Fredricksen? Am I supposed to dig the hole before or after?
Carl Fredricksen : Nyaa! None of my concern!
Russell : [after a pause] Oh... It's before!
Carl Fredricksen : Nyaa!
[covers his ears and shakes his head]
-
Russell : [Carl and Russell find Dug in a South American desert; Russel pets him] Hey, I like dogs!
Carl Fredricksen : [calling out] We have your dog!
Russell : [Dug walks around Russell] Whoa.
Carl Fredricksen : I wonder who he belongs to?
Russell : Sit, boy.
[Dug sits]
Russell : Hey look, he's trained! Shake.
[Dug shakes his paw]
Russell : Uh-huh. Speak.
Dug : Hi there.
Carl Fredricksen : [He and Russell make surprised exclamations] Did that dog just say "Hi there"?
Dug : Oh, yes.
Carl Fredricksen : Whaa!
Dug : My name is Dug. I have just met you, and I love you.
[he jumps up on Carl]
Carl Fredricksen : Wha...
Dug : My master made me this collar. He is a good and smart master and he made me this collar so that I may speak. Squirrel!
[looks to distance for a few seconds]
Dug : My master is good and smart.
Carl Fredricksen : It's not possible!
Dug : Oh, it is because my master is smart!
Russell : Cool! What do these do, boy?
Russell : [Russell starts to fiddle with a dial on Dug's collar, causing him to cycle through languages and different voices] Hey would you - cuerdo con tigo - I use that collar - watashi wa hanashi ma - to talk with. I would be happy if you stop.
Carl Fredricksen : Russell, don't touch that. It could be... radioactive or something.
Dug : I am a great tracker. My pack sent me on a special mission, all by myself. Have you seen a bird? I am going to find one, and I am on the scent. I am a great tracker; did I mention that?
[Dug is suddenly attacked by Kevin, who shrieks in Dug's face after pinning him to the ground]
Dug : Hey, that is the bird! I have never seen one up close, but this is the bird. May I take your bird back to camp as my prisoner?
Carl Fredricksen : Yes, yes, take it! And on the way, learn how to bark like a real dog!
Dug : Oh, I can bark.
[barks]
Dug : And this is howling.
[howls]
Russell : [Kevin screeches] Can we keep him? Please, please, please?
Carl Fredricksen : No.
Russell : But it's a TALKING DOG!
Carl Fredricksen : It's just a weird trick or something. Let's get to the falls.
-
Carl Fredricksen : You'd better get up, Russell. Or else, the tigers will come and eat you.
Russell : There are no Tigers in South America. Zoology.
-
Carl Fredricksen : I can't tell where we are.
Russell : Oh, we're in South America, all right. It was a cinch with my Wilderness Explorer GPS.
Carl Fredricksen : GP what?
Russell : My dad gave it to me; it shows exactly where we are on the planet!
[runs to window making beeping sounds]
Russell : With this baby, we'll never be lost!
[gestures and accidentally throws the unit out the window]
Russell : Oops.
-
Alpha : [Through a communicator on Beta's collar] This is Alpha calling Dug. Come in, Dug.
Dug : Hi Alpha. Hey, your voice sounds funny.
Alpha : I know, I know! Have you seen the bird?
Dug : Why, yes. The bird is my prisoner now.
Gamma : Yeah, right!
[Kevin hisses at the screen]
Alpha : Impossible! Where are you?
Dug : I am here with the bird, and I will bring it back, and then you will like me. Oh, gotta go.
[Russell appears on the screen]
Russell : Hey Dug! Who you talking to?
Alpha : [the screen goes black] No, wait, wait!
Beta : What's Dug doing?
Gamma : Why's he with that small mailman?
Beta : Where are they?
[Alpha locates Dug on GPS]
Dug : There he is, come on!
[they all dart into the jungle]
-
Russell : I've never been in a floating house before.
[Russell sees a picture of Ellie and laughs]
Russell : Goggles. Look at this stuff. Wow! You're going on a trip?
[Russell picks up a picture of Paradise Falls and reads from it]
Russell : "Paradise Falls, a land lost in time." You're going to South America, Mr. Fredricksen?
[Carl grabs the picture from Russell]
Carl Fredricksen : Don't touch that! You'll soil it.
Russell : You know, most people take a plane, but you're smart because you'll have all your TV and clocks and stuff.
-
Russell : Hey look, buildings! That building's so close, I can almost touch it!
Russell : [In Carl's thought] Wow! This is great! You should try this, Mr. Fredricksen! Look, there's a bus stop that could take me home two blocks away! Heyy, I can see your house from here!
Carl Fredricksen : [pulling on rope] Don't jerk around so much, kid -
[let's go, shocked]
Russell : AHH!
[fades away]
Carl Fredricksen : [back in reality] Well, that's not gonna work.
-
Russell : [to Carl, about Kevin] This was her favorite candy bar. Because you sent her away, there's more for you.
-
Dug : Oh, please, oh, please, oh, please be my prisoner!
Russell : Dug, stop bothering Kevin!
Dug : That man there says I should take the bird...
[Kevin squacks at Dug]
Dug : ... and I love that man there like he is my master.
Carl Fredricksen : I am not your master!
Dug : I am warning you once again, bird!
Russell : Hey! Quit it!
Dug : I am jumping on you now, bird!
Carl Fredricksen : Russell, at this rate we'll never get to the falls!
Dug : Here, bird!
-
Carl Fredricksen : [to Russell] Now, we're gonna walk to the falls quickly and quietly with no rap music or flashdancing.
Russell : Uh-huh.
Carl Fredricksen : We have three days, at best, before the helium leaks out of those balloons. And if we're not at the falls when that happens...
Russell : [behind Carl, obviously distracted, looking down] Sand.
Carl Fredricksen : ...we're not getting to the falls.
Russell : I found sand!
Carl Fredricksen : [looks up at his house, through a window, to where a picture of old Ellie hangs on the wall] Don't you worry, Ellie. We'll get our house over there.
-
Carl Fredricksen : [Having arrived above Paradise Falls in South America, miles from where they took off] Don't worry, I'll get you down, find a Bus Stop.
[cuts off the strings to some of the balloons, allowing the house to descend down]
Russell : Whoa, that's s gonna be like a billion transfers to get back to my house...
-
Russell : The wilderness must be explored! CA-CA! RAAWWRR!
-
Alpha : [In squeaky voice] Master, dinner is ready.
Charles Muntz : Oh, yes, broken collar? It's that loose wire again.
[fixes the collar]
Charles Muntz : There you go, big fella.
Alpha : [In deep, intimidating voice] Thank you, Master.
Russell : [Nervously] I liked his other voice better.
-
Russell : [after Carl's house has fell down to the ground and was presumably destroyed] Sorry about your house, Mr. Fredricksen.
Carl Fredricksen : You know... it's just a house.
-
[Muntz had just taken Kevin, and set Carl's House on Fire, which popped some of the balloons and left it floating only inches to the ground]
Russell : You gave away Kevin. You just... gave her away.
Carl Fredricksen : This is none of my concern.
[Turns around, Furious after what happened]
Carl Fredricksen : I DIDN'T ASK FOR ANY OF THIS.
Dug : Master, it's alright.
Carl Fredricksen : I AM NOT YOUR MASTER! AND YOU DIDN'T SHOW UP, NONE OF THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED. BAD DOG! BAD DOG! Now whether you assist me or not, I am going to Paradise Falls, if it kills me.
-
Russell : Oh! Mr. Fredricksen! If we happen to get separated, use the wilderness explorer call: "CA - CA! RAWRRR!"
-
Dug : I can smell you!
Carl Fredricksen : [confused] What? You can, smell us?
Dug : I can smell you!
Russell : [when Carl realizes that the "person" he's talking to is actually a rock, laughing] You were talking to a rock.
-
Russell : [Distracting the Dogs on the planes after having managed to finally climb up the hose onto Carl's Porch of his house floating around Muntz' Airship] Hey look, Squirrel!
Beta , Gamma , Omega : Where? Lemme at em.
[Beta, Gamma and Omega all crash into each other, destroying their planes as they activate their parachutes]
Gamma : [Slowly descending] I hate Squirrels!
-
[Having had a good read of Ellie's book she made many years ago, Carl finally starts to have a Change of Heart]
Carl Fredricksen : [Walking outside] Russell?
[Still mad at Carl, Russell takes some of the Balloons from his Roof, ties them around his waste, and takes Carl's Leaf Blower]
Carl Fredricksen : Russell, what are you doing?
Russell : I'm Gonna help Kevin, even if you won't.
[Russell starts up the Leaf Blower and disappears into the Clouds]
Carl Fredricksen : Russell, No!
-
Carl Fredricksen : You've been camping before, haven't you?
Russell : Well, never outside.
Carl Fredricksen : Well, why didn't you ask your dad how to build a tent?
Russell : I don't think he wants to talk about this stuff.
Carl Fredricksen : Why don't you try him sometime? Maybe he'll surprise you.
Russell : Well, he's away a lot. I don't see him much.
Carl Fredricksen : He's got to be home sometime.
Russell : Well, I called, but... Phyllis told me I bug him too much.
Carl Fredricksen : Phyllis? You call your own mother by her first name?
Russell : Phyllis isn't my mom.
Carl Fredricksen : [sheepish] Oh.
-
Carl Fredricksen : So you want to assist an old person?
Russell : Yep! Then I will be a Senior Wilderness Explorer!
Carl Fredricksen : [looks around furtively, then leans in close] Have you ever heard of a Snipe?
Russell : Snipe?
Carl Fredricksen : Bird. Beady eyes. Every night it sneaks in my yard and gobbles my poor azaleas. I'm elderly and infirm. I can't catch it. If only someone could help me...
Russell : Me! Me! I'll do it!
Carl Fredricksen : Oh, I don't know. It's awfully crafty. You'd have to clap your hands three times to lure it in.
Russell : I'll find it, Mr. Fredricksen!
Carl Fredricksen : I think its burrow is two blocks down. If you go past...
Russell : Two blocks down! Got it!
[Russell runs off down the street, calling out and clapping his hands]
Russell : Sniiiipe! Here, Snipey, Snipey...
Carl Fredricksen : [smirks] Bring it back here when you find it!
-
Charles Muntz : [Muntz notices that Russell is hanging by Carl's garden hose high in the air. He speaks into his intercom] Gray leader? Take down the house.
Russell : [still hanging on the hose] AAAAh!
[he sees three planes drop out of the blimp]
Russell : Oh?
[the planes swoop in. Three dogs are piloting them]
Beta : Gray Leader, checking in.
Gamma : Gray Two, checking in.
Omega : Gray Three, checking in.
Beta : [they approach Carl's house] Target sighted.
[he chomps down on a squeaky bone. The plane fires projectiles]
-
[as Carl holds onto the hose to his house, preventing it from drifting away without him and Russell in it, he urges Russell to climb up the hose and onto the porch]
Carl Fredricksen : Once you get to the Porch, find a rope, and pull me up. Got it?
[Russell strains as he tries to climb up the hose off screen, which is hard work]
Carl Fredricksen : Are you on the Porch yet?
[the scene changes to show that Russell has barely made it up an inch]
Russell : [Giving up and Exhausted] I can't do it.
Carl Fredricksen : That's it? I came all this way just to end up on the Wrong Side of this Rock Pile?
Carl Fredricksen : [Depressed] Now what am I gonna do?
Russell : I can assist you to the Falls. We could walk you house over.
Carl Fredricksen : Well, that could work.
Russell : Then when we get there, will you sign my badge?
[Carl ties ropes hanging from the house round his and Russell's waste in the Next Scene as they start to walk]
