Gadzooks, Sorry, Motoko Kusanagi, I didn't recognize you... with your clothes on-- Did you, Michael Caine in Spain?

No, Bendy, I didn't, but here in España we never look pretty girls with purple hair in the eye... especially if they are really stacked!

I would never... color my hair purple!

Correct, Piggy, purple and pork... don't mix well in mixed company.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... t!

Nobody ever wants fries... with Purple MacPork--

What kind of place did you bring us to, Cornelius? Purple haired people... talking frogs and pigs?
