James Coburn: Looten Plunder

Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Looten Plunder : Ah, what a beautiful island. Just the place for a flarme-thrower factory. 'Cept, where are the workers you promised me?

  Dr. Blight : You worry about *your* end of the business. When I'm through with my experiment, you'll have more workers than you can handle.

  [laughing, presses a button that sends an energy ray toward a device on the ceiling, whose beam shoots down near them, causing them to retreat] 

  Looten Plunder : You'd better get a handle on that *beam*. It's not supposed to be a death-ray.

• Dr. Blight : This ray will clone any living thing. It creates instant micellular mitosis.

  Looten Plunder : Mitosis, my foot. Just show me.

  Dr. Blight : On who? You think a volunteer is going to jump in the window?

  Looten Plunder : [sees a locust on the sill]  Matter of fact, yeah. Hit it!

  [she does and nothing happens] 

  Looten Plunder : I'm no mathematician, Blight, but I count only *one* bug.

• Dr. Blight : [traps the clone insect while the original hops off]  Plunder! Grab that other locust!

  Looten Plunder : [chuckles]  Why bother? He didn't look like much of a worker to me.

• Vico : Please don't hurt me!

  Looten Plunder : Ha! You think you're scared now, in a minute you'll be beside yourself!

  [laughs] 

  Dr. Blight : Stand back, Looten. We don't need *two* of you making bad jokes.

  Linka : [from the doorway]  Even one of him is too many.

• Dr. Blight : [Vico and the Planeteers are escaping]  Well, don't just stand there! Use the claw!

  Looten Plunder : Yes! Just what the doctor ordered.

• Looten Plunder : Half the island is covered with Vicos. Before they split again, *we* better split.

  Dr. Blight : I'll get the clone-ray, you keep an eye on the door.

  [the Planeteers leap through the window] 

  Wheeler : We thought we'd drop by and see what you were up to.

  Gi : Looks like you're up to your eyeballs in clones.

  Dr. Blight : [enraged]  Looten...!

  Looten Plunder : [retreating, gesturing at but not facing the entrance]  Well, you said to watch the *door*...

  [Kwame and Leela burst in through it] 

• Dr. Blight : [of Captain Planet]  I wonder what would happen if he aimed that de-cloning ray at *us*.

  Looten Plunder : I don't want to share my life with *you*!

• Dr. Blight : [the clones continue to double after being fed for pay in the factory]  This is getting out of hand. We have to do something.

  Looten Plunder : Relax. I've got it covered.

  [into a megaphone] 

  Looten Plunder : Listen up, people. I've got more workers than I need so... um... half of you are fired, scram!

  Dr. Blight : Oh, brother!

• Looten Plunder : [lunges for the locust lodging on Vico's chest, it hops off at the last second]  Oh, rats!

  [examines Vico] 

  Looten Plunder : Hmm. Wait a minute...

  [grabs Vico's wrist] 

  Vico : Uh-oh. A truant officer!

  Dr. Blight : [comes over]  Oh, way to go, butterfingers! The locust got away!

  Looten Plunder : Forget the bug, Blight. We've got another volunteer right here.

  Vico : [trying to break free]  I'm on my way to school, honest!

  Looten Plunder : [laughs]  We're not from school, kid. But stick with us. You'll learn a thing or two.
