I'll take it before noon. 201. Hey! Watch where you're going, Fox. Listen, I know you're doing Val d' taste in Tcript. They're in daylight hours, but I don't want any trouble in here. So hit the road. I'm not looking for any trouble, either, sir. I simply want to buy a jumbo pop for my little boy. You want the red or the blue, pal? Oh, come on, kid. Back up. Listen, buddy. What? There are only Fox ice cream joints in your part of town. No, no, there are. There are. It's just my boy, this goofy little stinker. He loves all things Elephant. He wants to be one when he grows up. Is that adorable? Who the heck am I to crush his little dreams, huh? Right? Look, you probably can't refox, but the sign says, we reserved the right to refuse service to anyone. So beat it. You're holding up the line.

Hello? Excuse me? Hey, you're going to have to wait your turn like everyone else. Actually, I'm an officer. Just had a quick question. Are your customers aware they're getting snot and mucus with their cookies and cream? What are you talking about? Well, I don't want to cause any trouble, but I believe scooping ice cream with an ungloved trunk is a Class III health code violation, which is kind of a big deal. Of course, I could let you off with a warning if you would glove those trunks and finish selling this nice dad and his son up. What was it? A jumbo pop. Please. A jumbo pop. BEEP. $15. Thank you so much. Thank you. Oh no, are you kidding me? I don't have my wallet. I'd lose my head if it weren't attached to my neck. That's the truth. Oh boy, I'm sorry, pal. Gotta be about the worst birthday ever. Please don't be mad at me. Thanks anyway. Keep the change.

Officer, I can't thank you enough. So kind, really. Can I pay you back? Oh no, my treat. It just, you know, it burns me up to see folks with such backward attitudes towards foxes. I just want to say you're a great dad and just a real articulate fella. Oh, well, that is high praise. It's rare that I find someone so non-patronizing. Officer Hopps. Mr. Wild. Nick Wild. And you, little guy. You want to be an elephant when you grow up? You be an elephant. Because this is Zootopia. Anyone can be anything. Ah, boy, I tell him that all the time. All right, here you go. Two paws. Yeah. Oh, look at that smile. That's a happy birthday smile. All right, give her a little bye-bye toot-toot. Bye now. Goodbye. Bye.
