Quotes 

• Dr. Jenning : It feels like something inside me, gnawing at my guts... what's wrong with me?

  Beverly : Well... what did you have for lunch?

• Dr. Jenning : [setting fire to the diner]  If you can't take the heat, get out of that kitchen!

• [Jenning has almost crashed into a diner] 

  Howard T. Duck : You think that's funny, Jenning?

  Dr. Jenning : I'm not Jenning anymore! The transformation is complete. I am now... someone else.

  Howard T. Duck : Try telling that to your insurance company.

• State Trooper : I wanna see your license, "Jack"!

  Dr. Jenning : [as the Dark Overlord]  I have no license. I am *not* Jack.

  [electrocutes state trooper] 

• Dr. Jenning : In the lab that night, we saw a single feather fall. We weren't aware that the rest of you, Howard, had landed in that alley just two miles away. Any questions?

  Howard T. Duck : Yeah. Where are my pants?

• Dr. Jenning : [at the diner, as the Dark Overlord]  I have disguised my true form, which would be considered... hideous and revolting, here.

  Beverly : Lucky for the people eating.

• [the diner has turned into turmoil] 

  Dr. Jenning : [as the Dark Overlord]  An evil unlike any you can imagine is about to engulf the Earth.

  Waitress : Oh, no, no, we got fights in here all the time.

• Dr. Jenning : It was just a routine procedure, meant to measure the density of the gases that surround Alpha Centauri. However, partway through the experiment, there was a deviation, and, uh... we lost control of the laser spectroscope.

  Howard T. Duck : What do you mean, "lost control"?

  Dr. Jenning : Some unknown force was redirecting the laser beam from its original target, so that it hit your planet instead.

  Howard T. Duck : Hit my planet? How about 'hit my living room'? Talk about an invasion of privacy!

• Dr. Jenning : I told you, bird-brain, I am not Jenning anymore! I am now one of the Dark Overlords of the Universe.

  Beverly : Hmm, Dark Overlord of the Universe?

  Howard T. Duck : That must be quite a responsibility.

• Dr. Jenning : The world is in great danger.

  Howard T. Duck : Yeah, it certainly is when *you're* out on the highway.

• Dr. Jenning : You are about to make history a second time, my little friend.

  Howard T. Duck : Thanks. But once was plenty.

• Dr. Jenning : [In demon form]  Eat claw, duck!

• Waitress : [after the waitress brings the "Specials", Howard lets out a cry and is horrified]  You ordered your specials, what's wrong?

  Dr. Jenning : [Dr. Jenning posessed by a dark overlord]  This will mean the extinction of all existing lifeforms.

  Waitress : You haven't even tasted it yet

  Howard T. Duck : What do you think, I'm into cannibalism or something?

  Waitress : Hey, are we like all in the same discussion here?

  Howard T. Duck : I'll give you a hint, doll: what's white, ovoid, and always reminds me of my birthday?

  Waitress : I don't know.

  Howard T. Duck : The eggs, get em outta here.

• Beverly : He's my favorite duck.

  Dr. Jenning : You hardly know him.

• Dr. Jenning : [Possessed by the dark overlord]  I am not Jenning anymore.

  Howard T. Duck : [after the aliens have been banished to their own dimension, Howard imitates Jenning, pretending to be possessed]  I am not Howard anymore.

• Beverly : You're gonna just sit there?

  Dr. Jenning : She took my eggs.
