He's not thinking straight. We gotta stop him from making the biggest mistake of his life....

Alex the Lion:
What is it, Melman? Melman the Giraffe:
Okay, okay. Oh. You know how I have that bladder infection and I have to get up every two hours? I got up to pee and looked over at Marty's pen, which I usually don't do. I don't know why, but I did. And... Alex the Lion:
What, Melman? What's going on? Melman the Giraffe:
It's Marty. He's gone. Alex the Lion:
Gone? [hits his head] Alex the Lion:
What do you mean gone? Melman the Giraffe:
How long has he been working on this? [into the hole] Melman the Giraffe:
Marty! Marty! Gloria the Hippo:
[enters the scene]
He wouldn't fit down there! Alex the Lion:
[looks into his haybed]
Marty? Marty! Marty! Gloria the Hippo:
This doesn't make any sense. Where would he go? Alex the Lion:
[in shock]
Connecticut! Gloria the Hippo:
He wouldn't. Melman the Giraffe:
Oh, no! What are we... What are we going to do? We gotta, we gotta. I mean, we got to, we gotta, we got to call somebody! [Alex gasps, then runs to the phone and dials 911] Alex the Lion:
Hello? Get me some Missing Animals. And hurry. We've got a lost zebra on the way to Connecticut by now, and we're gonna need... [the police hears the lion roaring on speaker] Police Officer:
Hello? Hello? Alex the Lion:
Wait a second. We can't call the people. [hangs up the phone, then destroys it] Alex the Lion:
They'll be really mad. It will get Marty transferred for good. You don't bite the hand that feeds you. Gloria the Hippo:
Mm-hmm, I know that's right. Alex the Lion:
We gotta go after him. Melman the Giraffe:
Go after him? Alex the Lion:
He's not thinking straight. We gotta stop him from making the biggest mistake of his life. He's probably out there lost and cold, confused. Poor little guy
