- Mulan: [to Shang] Would you like to stay for dinner?
- Grandmother Fa: [Yelling in the background] Would you like to stay forever?
- The Emperor of China: The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all.
- Shang: Sir?
- The Emperor of China: You don't meet a girl like that every dynasty.
- The Emperor of China: I've heard a great deal about you, Fa Mulan. You stole your father's armor, ran away from home, impersonated a soldier, deceived your commanding officer, dishonored the Chinese Army, destroyed my palace, and... you have saved us all.
- Grandmother Fa: Great. She brings home a sword. If you ask me, she should've brought home a man.
- Shang: Excuse me. Does Fa Mulan live here?
- [Grandmother and Mother dumbly point to the garden]
- Shang: Thank you.
- Grandmother Fa: Whoo! Sign me up for the next war.
- Fa Zhou: My, what beautiful blossoms we have this year. But look, this one's late. But I'll bet that when it blooms, it will be the most beautiful of all.
- Mushu: The truth is, we're both frauds. Your ancestors never sent me, they don't even like me. But you risked your life to help people you love. I risked your life to help myself. At least you had good intentions.
- [Cri-Kee chirps sadly at Mushu]
- Mushu: What? What do you mean you're not lucky? You *lied* to me?
- [Cri-Kee nods sadly]
- Mushu: [to Mulan's horse] And what are you, a sheep?
- Mulan: [singing] Look at me, / I will never pass for a perfect bride, or a perfect daughter / Can it be, I'm not meant to play this part? / Now I see, / That if I were truly to be myself, I would break my family's heart...
- Mulan: Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me? / Why is my reflection someone I don't know? / Somehow, I cannot hide / who I am, though I've tried / When will my reflection show / who I am, inside? / When will my reflection show / who I am, inside...
- Mushu: My powers are beyond your mortal imagination. For instance, my eyes can see straight through your armor.
- [Mushu's eyes move towards Mulan's chest; she smacks him]
- Mushu: Oooh! All right, that's it! Dishonor! Dishonor on your whole family!
- [to Cri-Kee]
- Mushu: Make a note of this: dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow, dis...
- [Mulan covers his mouth with her hand]
- Mulan: Stop. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm just nervous. I've never done this before.
- Mushu: Then you're gonna have to trust me. And don't you slap me no more. We clear on that? All right. Okey-dokey, let's get this show on the road! Cri-Kee, get the bags.
- [to the horse, Khan]
- Mushu: Let's move it, heifer.
- Shan-Yu: I tire of your arrogance, old man. Bow to me!
- The Emperor of China: No matter how the wind howls, the mountain cannot bow to it.
- Shan-Yu: Then you will kneel in *pieces*!
- Mushu: All right! Rise and shine, Sleeping Beauty! Come on. Hup, hup, hup! Get your clothes on. Get ready. Got breakfast for ya. Look, you get *porridge*...
- [Porridge has a fried-eggs-and-bacon smile]
- Mushu: And it's happy to see ya.
- [Cri-Kee pops up from the porridge]
- Mushu: [tossing Cri-Kee from the "porridge"] Hey, get outta there! You gonna make people sick!
- Mushu: [stuffing breakfast into Mulan's mouth] No time to talk. Now remember, it's your first day of trainin', so listen to your teacher and no fightin', play nice with the other kids, unless, of course, one of the other kids wanna fight, then you have to kick the other kid's butt.
- Mulan: [muffled] But I don't wanna kick the other kid's butt.
- Mushu: Don't talk with your mouth full. Now let's see your war face.
- [Mulan looks at him with mouth full of porridge]
- Mushu: Ooh, I think my bunny slippers just ran for cover. Come on, scare me, girl!
- Mulan: Rrrgh!
- Mushu: There! That's what I'm talking about! That's my tough-looking warrior girl! Now go out there and make me proud!
- [seeing Yao, Ling, and Chien-Po run to the lake where Mulan is bathing]
- Mushu: Oh! We're *doomed!* There are a couple things I *know* they're bound to notice!
- Mulan: [Mulan and Mushu escape back to shore from Yao, Ling, and Chin-Po] Boy, that was close.
- Mushu: No...
- Mushu: [brushes his teeth] That was vile! You owe me big.
- [Mushu squirts more toothpaste in his mouth and brushes again]
- Mulan: I never want to see a naked man again.
- [a big group of naked men run past them, laughing]
- Mushu: Hey, don't look at me, I ain't biting no more butts.
- Shang: [singing] Let's get down to business to defeat the Huns./Did they send me daughters when I asked for sons?/You're the saddest bunch I've ever met,/But you can bet, before we're through/Mister, I'll make a man out of you.
- Mushu: [waking up] I liiiiiiiiiive! So tell me what mortal needs my protection, Great Ancestor. You just say the word and I'm there.
- First Ancestor: Mushu...
- Mushu: And let me say somethin'. Anybody who's foolish enough to threaten our family, vengeance will be miiiine!
- [growls]
- First Ancestor: Mushu!
- [points to statues]
- First Ancestor: *These* are the family guardians. They...?
- Mushu: ...protect the family.
- First Ancestor: [points to empty alcove] And you, oh Demoted One?
- Mushu: I... ring the gong.
- [Pursued by Shan-Yu, Mulan escapes to the roof of the emperor's palace when Shan-Yu crashes through the roof and advances towards her. Checking herself for a weapon, Mulan can only produce a fan]
- Shan-Yu: It looks like you're out of ideas
- [Shan-Yu stabs at Mulan with his sword; she dodges, trapping the sword with the fan and twists it out of his hands into her own]
- Mulan: Not quite.
- [the Huns are rapidly approaching and Mulan has taken the only remaining cannon]
- Mushu: Oookay, you might wanna light that right about now. Quickly! Quickly!
- [Mulan drops the tinderbox, seizes Mushu and uses him to light the rocket, then points it at the mountain behind Shan Yu]
- Mushu: [from on top of the rocket as it soars away] You missed! How could you miss? He was three feet from you!
- [the rocket hits the mountain and causes an avalanche]
- Mulan: With all due respect, Your Excellency, I think I've been away from home long enough.
- The Emperor of China: Then, take this.
- [removes his crest from around his neck and puts it around Mulan's]
- The Emperor of China: So your family will know what you have done for me. And this.
- [hands her the sword of Shan Yu]
- The Emperor of China: So the world will know what you have done for China.
- The Emperor of China: A single grain of rice can tip the scale. One man may be the difference between victory and defeat.
- Chi Fu: Insubordinate ruffians! You men owe me a new pair of slippers! And I do not squeal like a girl.
- [a panda eats his slipper; he squeals like a girl]
- Mushu: [disguised as a messenger riding the panda] Urgent news from the General.
- [beat]
- Mushu: What's the matter? Never seen a black-and-white before?
- Chi Fu: Who are you?
- Mushu: Excuse me? I think the question is, who are *you!* We're in a war, man! There's no time for stupid questions! I should have your hat for this, snatch it *right* off your head. But I'm feeling gracious today, so carry on before I report you.
- Mulan: You shouldn't have to go!
- Fa Li: Mulan!
- Mulan: There are plenty of young men to fight for China!
- Fa Zhou: It is an honor to protect my country and my family.
- Mulan: So you'll die for honor.
- Fa Zhou: I will die doing what's right!
- Mulan: But if you...
- Fa Zhou: I know my place! It is time you learned yours.
- [after Mulan cuts Khan loose from a flaming cart with Mushu in it]
- Mushu: Oh, sure. Save the *horse*.
- [Shan-Yu releases two captured Imperial scouts to give the Emperor a message]
- Shan-Yu: How many men does it take to deliver a message?
- [Hun Archer draws back his bow and aims]
- Hun Archer: One.
- Chien-Po: [singing] I'm never gonna catch my breath!
- Yao: Say goodbye to those who knew me!
- Ling: Boy was I a fool in school for cutting gym!
- Mushu: [speak-singing] This guy's got her scared to death!
- Mulan: [singing] Hope he doesn't see right through me!
- Chien-Po: Now I really wish that I knew how to swim!
- Fa Li: I should have prayed to the ancestors for luck.
- Grandmother Fa: How lucky can they be? They're dead. Besides, I've got all the luck we'll need.
- [to Cri-Kee]
- Grandmother Fa: This is your chance to prove yourself.
- Yao: [at the waterhole] Hey, Ping.
- Mulan: Oh, hi, guys. I didn't know you were here. I was just washing, so now I'm clean, and I'm gonna go. Bye-bye!
- Ling: Come back here! I knew we were jerks to you before, so, let's start over. Hi, I'm Ling.
- Chien-Po: And I'm Chien-Po.
- Mulan: Hello, Chien-Po.
- Yao: [standing naked on a rock] And I am Yao, king of the rock!
- [mildly sneering]
- Yao: And there's nuttin' you girls can do about it.
- Ling: Oh, yeah? Well, I think Ping and I can take you.
- Mulan: I really don't want to take him anywhere.
- Ling: Ping, we have to fight.
- Mulan: No, we don't. We could just... close our eyes... and - swim around...
- Ling: [pulling on Mulan's arm] Come on, don't be such a gir... Ouch! Something bit me!
- Mushu: Ugh! Ach! What a nasty flavor.
- Ling: Snake!
- [Ling and Chien-Po scramble onto the rock with Yao, while Mulan sneaks away]
- Ling: Some king of the rock.
- [Yao pushes him off]
