Kowalski, Eva is worried about you.

She is? What did she say?

Did she say my name specifically?

I mean, were there... were there tears?

Details, come on, tell me!

Private! You're alive. Come here.

This feels a little awkward,

but I'm happy.

Rico! You need to listen to us.

I guess you're kind of

the same either way.

Private!

Heads up!

Looks like we're back in business, boys.

And our business is saving penguin-kind.

- Who's with me?

- Count me in.

- Let's do this!

- Boo-hah!

- Yeah!

- Let's create and feel momentum.

Sir, how long do we

stand here like this?

Until we've reached maximum coolness.

There it is.

- Now all we need is a plan.

- I've got one.

You stole Dave's ray?

Well, I figured if we could

reverse the ray,

we could turn everyone back to normal.

Reverse the ray?

That's brilliant!

But... it's impossible!

In order to reverse the ray, we would

need to replace the Medusa Serum

with a power source of almost

immeasurable cuteness.

Immeasurable cuteness? Where the heck

are we supposed to get that?

No, wait. Private, no!

We don't know what that will do to you!

- All right!

- The ray! It works! It works!

- Private! Are you okay?

- Yes!

Butt-hand!

There's a hand attached to his butt.

That was not...

that was not there before.

- Get out of there! That's an order!

- Permission to defy order.

- Permission denied!

- Then I deny your denial.

It's too risky, Private.

It already made you sprout a butt-hand!

I know it has to be me this time.

And I think you know it, too.

I'm the secret weapon.

I'm happy... and yet...

now that I have my revenge, I feel...

empty, as if what I needed

all along was...

more revenge! In fact...

Robin, write this down...

Tomorrow we move on to kittens!

Then puppies, bunnies, pandas...

Charlize, they're on the ray!

Helen, hunt them down!

William, hurt them.

Halle, bury them!

Hugh, Jack, man the battle stations!

Kevin, bake on! We're still

gonna need that victory cake!

We're only gonna get one shot at this, boys!

How we doing on those snow globes?

Beam splitter ready! Fire at will!

Do it, Skipper!

- Dead batteries?!

- Game over, Skipper!

No!

Rico, batteries! Skipper! Kowalski!

Hold off those octopi!

We're doing this now!

You heard Private! Deploy!

Get back, you aquatic savages!

Behind you! Beside you!

Six o'clock! Twelve o'clock!

- They're coming from every direction!

- There's just too many of them!

- Whoa.

- You came back!

Oh... that's why you

look back at the explosion.

I can dream...

Fallback positions!

Stay away from Private!

Suck it up, Kowalski.

No!

It's over, Skipper.

Over? That's weird. Then why is Rico

throwing me a fresh pair of double-A's?

- No!

- The remote!

Rico! Dibble me!

It worked! Private!

Excuse me. Emergency. Coming through.

Make a hole! Make a hole!

Don't worry, a chrysalis is just forming

around you. That's perfectly normal.

Private.

Wha...?

Private?

- Oh! Look at that! Majestic.

- Hello.

- Private!

- Oh! Hey!

- What's wrong? What are you...

- Look out for the...

- Have I got something...

- Cover your eyes.

- Is there a... thing?

- Don't turn your head.

So... how do I look?

You're hideously disfigured

and will probably be hunted for sport.

- What?

- What?

If there's anything we've learned from

this delightful adventure... Kowalski...

It's that looks don't matter.

It's what you do that counts.

And look at what you did.

Yes, sir...

you are the most meaningful

and valued member of this team.

Way to go, Private!

Attaboy!

Nicely done.

- Way to go, Private! You did it!

- We're so proud of you!

- You saved us!

- We love you, Private!

- Yeah, we love you!

- You the penguin!

Ramirez!

- Dave.

- Dave!

What? Are you kidding me?!

- Dave... look at you.

- You think this is over?

- I'm just getting started. I'm about to...

- What do we do with him now?

Open this right now!

Here you go, kid.

Cool!

I hope you find happiness, Dave.

It's snowing! It's snowing! It's snowing!

It's snowing! It's snowing! It's snowing...

Right, now, then...

- this is difficult for me to say.

- Is it "osteoporosis"?

You just got to lean into the vowel.

Os-teo...

- poro...

- No! No.

I want to say... you four are

the bravest agents I've ever known.

The point is... I was wrong about you,

and I hope... there's some

way I can make it right.

- Give us jet packs.

- We should kiss.

Did... did you just say...

Well, that feels right!

I think I'd actually prefer

a jet pack, please.

I think we should go

with Private's idea.

Yeah!

Kowalski! What's our trajectory?

95% certain this will end in massive...

flaming disaster!

- And the other five percent?

- Irrelevant, sir!

- Jet packs are awesome!

- Agreed!

Who says penguins can't fly?

Skipper, we are going to

turn me back to normal, right?

Absolutely. First thing Monday.

- I'm in a rocket ship!

- I want to push the button.

- Give me that!

- Hey! Stealer!

- Let's do this! I'm ready!

- Okay, on three. One, three, go.

I'm just gonna do a little practice push.

Okay, I'm not going to press it.

Why are you smacking my hand?

Hey, look over there!

I'm a laser show.

Julien!

Now, that's the Private

we know and love. High one!

- Immeasurable cuteness, right there!

- Good to be back.

I feel like a French fry!

- I'm okay!

- And with cuteness to spare!

Come on! Frosty mugs

of herring juice all around!

- Private's buying.

- What?

You know, if I'm being honest,

I expected a little more... pizzazz!

Yes! Now, that's pizzazz!
