Quotes[]
- Hethi (voice): Our world has fromed many life forms. Many roam the land. Many roam the seas. And many roam both.
- Sea Catch: Empty clamshells and dry seaweed, there has far from been such a thing as white seal!
Sea Vitch: Well, there is now, young man. First time for everything.
- Hethi: Mowgli. Sara Jen. You two proved the most just humans I knew. And I believed in you, and always would. And I give you my blessing as you lead some of us to meet the snowy seal which was foretold to help in the road to peace between our worlds.
(he strokes and hugs them)
Hethi: Safe journey.
- Hethi: Jerry, I know you would do all you can. You be small on body... big on heart and mind.
- Kaa: BBBRRRR! Why do we own zero fur?
Sara Jen : Here. A nice cardigan I forged for you.
Kaa: Thanks. So nice.
- Professor Parker: The Bering Sea. Yes. Right between Russia and Alaska. Once a land-bridge durign the Ice-Age. But when it ended, this got turnerd to sea.
- Kotick: Humans who speak to us as people? I must tell Mum.
- Matkah: I'm glad you're our buds. Many treat us as... prey.
Sarah Jen Parker: We're sorry for this.
Mowgli: Thaa, the first jungle-king and Hethi's ancestor, foresaw we would help bring peace between our words.
Matkah: So I heard. And I believe you two could be.
Sea Catch: Humans. Humans are far from trustworthy.
Sea Vitch: Beware your pride, young one.
- Kotick: Stop it! Stop it!
(the hunters freak out)
Hunter 1: A white seal?
Hunter 2: How? Impossible.
Hunter 3: A ghost. The ghost of all the seals we've ever killed.
Hunter 4: A ghost.
Hunter 5: I think we should run.
Hunter 6: RUN! Run for your lives, it's come back to haunt us!
(Mowgli and Sarah Jen laugh)
Kotick: And stay out!
(Kotick snickers as the hunters leave)
Jerry: Cowards.
- Sea Vitch: Boy. That's the funniest story I've heard in a long time.
(he laughs)
(they all laugh)
Sea Vitch: But I lack the superstitious fear those locals own. Many from the Parker's people would lock you in a zoo or circus. If you keep coming here year after year, humans get to know. Unless you can find a land where humans cannot reach you, you would be hunted to destruction.
Kotick: Is there one such, lad?
Sea Vitch: I suggest you meet Seako, the Steller's Sea-Cow.
Professor Parker: But Steller's Sea-Cows died out. Humans hunted them all. All wiped out.
Sea Vitch: All but some left. Seako is a leader to a society of Steller's sea-cows who hid from humans. Look for him.
- Sea Vitch: Well done.
Kotick: I can overlook how you all mock my skin color. But I cannot overlook your arrogance in ignoring our people's survival. We found a land where you can be hidden from humans until Mowgli and Jen teach them to respect other species. But unless your heads are dragged from your necks, you refuse to believe. So we shall force you to. Look out for yourselves, you pompous windbags!
(he charges roaring)
Sarah Jen Parker: Now they got it.
Mowgli: Such is the price for arrogance.
- Sea Catch: He may be a dreamer, but he proved worthy. I'm with you.
- Hethi: Grand to see you old friend.
Sea Victich: The feelings mutual. You trained these humans well. Just souls who revere us as equals. Such courage and compassion and honour and integrity and trustworthiness and loyalty and perseverance and intelligence. And such humour.
Hethi: Yep. I know. And I'm proud of them.
Raksha: Me as well.
