"Look Skipper, I don't think you understand." Maurice said simply.
"What could I not understand?" The leader asked.
"Well uh legally in lemur terms..." Maurice rubbed the back of his head and shrugged. "You and Julien are hitched."
Kowalski spewed out his water yet again. "GOOD GOLLY WOLLY!"
Skipper shot him an unimpressed look. "You done?"
The penguin analyst nodded and took an actual sip and swallow of his water finally. "Oh yeah I'm good." He nodded calmly and got up from the table to get a refill.
"Do you see NOW what you've gotten yourself into?" Maurice asked the leader.
"No!" The commander replied in defense.
The aye-aye face palmed. "You and Julien are married, alright?"
"They're what?" Private asked, him and the weapons expert having been listening in through the cracked lab door.
Meanwhile Rico was laughing hysterically.
Skipper marched over and slammed the door shut, waddling back over to the lemur. "Now, here's what's gonna happen," He told Maurice. "We're all gonna go back to our own lives and forget this ever happened, alright?"
"I can live with that." Kowalski commented in front of the fridge, sipping his new glass of water.
"Well I can't!" Maurice told them. "This is not a thing you can simply forget about!"
"Why not?" Skipper asked.
"Because!" He cried. "That's just...NOT how the lemur customs work!"
"Look I could care LESS about you lemurs' laws..." Skipper rolled his eyes. "So why don't you just-"
"No Skipper!" Maurice commanded. His voice was strong and authoritative. He ment business all right. "Why don't you just zip that big orange beak of yours for long enough to listen to someone else instead of only ignoring them?"
Skipper blinked and frowned intently. "You have my attention..."
"Good." Maurice huffed, calming down. "Now, you may not realize this, but marriage is supposed to be a sacred ritual. In the royal line of lemurs, it's how a king or queen pick their mate. Jul-"
"Whoa, mate?" Skipper interrupted. "I'm not that psychotic lemur's mate!"
"I agree with Skipper on this one!" Kowalski spoke, lounging against the table.
"You are!" The aye-aye told the leader. "Julien hasn't had a great experience when it comes to love. His parents weren't in love, so he vowed to find someone who truly did love him!"
Private stepped out of the lab, him and Rico STILL having been listening in. "Do you...love Julien, Skippah?"
"What?" He turned around, finding the smallest of the group. "Why would I? He's an incompetent fool!"
"I resent that!" Maurice growled a bit.
"Why?" Kowalski shrugged. "It's true!"
"No it is not!" The adviser argued.
"Alright then!" The leader challenged. "Name at least three smart things he's done!"
Kowalski snorted like a nerd. "He'll be lucky if he can name negative zero!" The analyst gave a snorting laugh even though he got blank stares. "You know, because the number doesn't even EXIST and-" He saw the deadpan stares. "Yeaaaah I'm not a comedian, I believe we've established that in the earlier episodes…"
They all turned their attention back to the conversation at hand. "Even though that was a pathetic attempt," Skipper spoke. "Kowalski agrees with me. I'm sure my other teammates would agree as well. Right?"
"Yup!" Rico nodded. "Uh-huh."
"Well-" Private began, but was interrupted by his leader.
"See? He's an idiot! Why can't you see that?" Skipper exclaimed.
"Crude, yes, but…I agree with Skipper." Kowalski nodded and looked to the aye aye firmly. "Sorry."
Maurice glared at them all. "He saved your sorry butt from that angry kangaroo man! And you know what Skipper? You're an idiot!" There were gasps around the room but the aye-aye wasn't done yet. "I've put up with Julien all of his life. I know what he needs. He needs love that is true, and that's something you can't give him! You said yourself: You don't love Julien! In fact, you do not even seem to know anything about love! You are stupid. In fact," Maurice turned to leave. "I don't even know why Julien chose you as his queen for!"
The leader chuckled with a charming grin. "Well I'm good looking aren't I? Not exactly QUEEN material…" Skipper examined his tail feathers but shrugged. "But not too shabby if I do say so myself…"
Maurice groaned and went to leave.
"Where ya going?!" Skipper called. He didn't like to leave things unfinished and now he kind of felt bad… He sighed seriously. "Wait a minute lemur. You know maybe there is a chance I'm in the wrong here, and if that is the case then I guess we need you to get ring-tail here to make it right. So I can apologize…" He was the bigger species here, he knew how to admit when he'd made a mistake and he had. He slept with the crazy lemur and now he had to pay the price.
Maurice turned around sneering. "You think that's gonna make up for everything you've done? A simple sorry is not gonna fix this one!"
"Aw come on! There's gotta be SOMETHING that can fix this!" Skipper whined. Darnit he really thought he nailed that apology! He even gave his charming smile! How could anyone pass up that?! The leader sighed. "Name your price, aye-aye."
Maurice thought for a moment. "Break up with Julien." He looked at the leader seriously. "Tomorrow."
"Done and done!" The leader finalized. "That'll just be a technicality. We were never really 'together' in the first place." He used quotations.
Private was still frowning. "Skippah-" He tried but was ignored.
"Good." The adviser told the leader, turning once again to leave.
Skipper nodded firmly that they'd come to an agreement.
"Oh, and, Skipper?" The aye-aye seemed to be speaking as if it was an afterthought.
Skipper turned with a raised brow.
"Don't try any funny business." Maurice said with narrowed eyes before exiting the penguin HQ.
Private blinked, turning his head. "What'd he mean by that Skippah?"
The leader shook his head with narrowed suspicious eyes. "I don't know…but I have a feeling we're gonna find out…tomo-"
Rico sang heartily like an opera singer the last word. "TO-MOR-ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!" He nailed the high note and bowed at his big finish.
Private clapped with a smile.
Skipper nodded. "Impressive vocal work, Rico."
Kowalski shook his head, his flipper squeaking in his earhole as he stared at the weapon's expert. "Was that REALLY necessary?"
Rico shook his head simply. "No."
