1 out of every 8 Americans is afraid of flying. Most of them don't have feathers.

[As she is happily flying, Jewel notices Blu walking away sadly]

Jewel:
Hey, where you going? [Blu ignores her and keeps on walking] Blu? Blu, what's wrong?

Blu:
Nothing. Everything's perfect. You'll be off to the rain forest. I'll be back with Linda. Just like we planned.

Jewel:
I...

[Nico and Pedro fly down towards them]

Nico:
Hey, birds! Stop yappin' and start flappin'! Let's go!

Jewel:
I...I...I guess I thought maybe...

Blu:
What? That you...you'd come to Minnesota? [Jewel just looks at him] Great! I guess I... I'll knit you a scarf.

Jewel:
No, that's not what I meant.

Blu:
Look Jewel, I can't spend my life walking around following you wherever you're going.

Jewel:
Hey, it's not my fault you can't fly.

Pedro:
[to Nico as they watch Blu and Jewel] Awkward.

Rafael:
[to Blu and Jewel] Okay, okay. You know what? It's just good. Just clear the air. Just be completely honest with each other.

Blu:
You want honesty? [to Rafael and Jewel] Fine, fine, I can be honest. I don't belong here. In fact, I never wanted to even come here in the first place. [stammers] And... and... and you know what? I hate samba!

[Jewel and Rafael gasps & Nico starts crying into Pedro's wing]

Pedro:
Hey! That's a little too far.

Nico:
Make the mean bird take it back!

Blu:
Yeah, I said it. Every song sounds exactly the same! [sings] Tico, taco ya-ya-ya. Tico, taco ya-ya-ya! [groans] I'm tico-taco out of here.

Jewel:
[angrily] Fine! See you around, PET! [starts flying away from Blu]

Rafael:
No, no! Wait, wait, wait! Come back! You belong together. You are Juliet to his Romeo! Sure, they both die at the end. But, you get my point! Oh, young love. Always so melodramatic. [to Nico and Pedro] All right, boys. Go after her. [starts flying to Blu] Blu! Come back here, come on!
