A Bug's Life1998
Hopper:
Guys… order another round, because we're stayin' here! [the rest of the grasshoppers cheer] What was I thinking going back to Ant Island? I mean, we just got here, and we have more than enough food to get us through the winter, right? Why go back? [the music goes back on and the rest of the gang begins to party again] But... there was that ant that stood up to me.
Axel:
Yeah, but we can forget about him!
Barry:
He was just one ant!
[The rest of the gang agrees, mocking the ants about their puny size compared to them]
Hopper:
Yeah, you're right! It's just one ant!
Barry:
Yeah, boss. They're puny!
Hopper:
Hmm, puny. Say, let's pretend this grain is a puny little ant. [throws it at Barry] Did that hurt?
Barry:
Heh! Nope.
Hopper:
Well, how 'bout this one? [throws it at Axel]
Axel:
Are you kiddin'?
[The rest of the grasshoppers laugh]
Hopper:
Well, how 'bout [seriously] this? [pulls the lid off the jar of grain and Axel and Loco are buried beneath the avalanche, then he climbs on top of the grain pile] You let one ant stand up to us, then they all might stand up! Those "puny little ants" outnumber us a hundred to one, and if they ever figure that out, there goes our way of life! It's not about food - it's about keeping those ants in line! That's why we're going back! Does anybody else wanna stay?
[The grasshoppers all get ready to fly]
Molt:
[to the grasshoppers] He's quite the motivational speaker, isn't he?
Hopper:
Let's ride!
[All the grasshoppers fly off to return to Ant Island]
