Cro

 * NANDYYYYYY!!!!


 * Ogg, it wasn't Bobb's fault! Let him stay!


 * [to Selene] I've got no mother, no father, nobody wants me...except the Neanderthals and they're not to crazy about me! I don't even have a real pet! Just this log!

Ogg

 * (repeated line)
 * In cases like this, only one thing to
 * say...




 * (two mammoths tell a joke with humans at the butt)
 * That not funny!
 * (throws a pie at the mammoths)
 * Not politically correct, either!

 * upon a time, Bobb's old tribe--
 * Nandy: (interrupting) They cute! Look just like Bobb!
 * Gogg: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, lay down for nappies. But
 * when Bobb wake up...




 * Gogg: Bobb...he all alone.




 * Gogg: Bobb think Ogg impose punishment too severe for crime!

Nandy

 * What matter? Hole done yet? (sees boulder coming
 * pendulum-like towards her) No. Nandy done. Way done!

 * Now which lever was that again? Oh, I'm kidding!




 * And now without further ado, I'd like to present my
 * Christmas list.

Pakka

 * Pakka: C'mon, Cro. We've gotta finish building the statues!
 * Cro (distracted) Not now, Pakka, we're trying to build
 * a bridge.
 * Pakka: Without supports?
 * Cro: (shocked) Supports?

Dire Wolves

 * Big Red: I have decided to accompany you flea-biters this
 * time in order to prevent further failure. If we do not succeed on
 * our mission tonight, (menacingly) I shall be forced gnaw on
 * one of youse.




 * (the dire wolves are searching for the Neandies' mung)

 * Wolves: A HUMAN!
 * Murray: And with a big club! RUN FOR THE HILLS!!!

 * Selene: Yes and quite tastefully, I might add!

Earle and Mojo
Earle and Mojo: Men is in the Valley!

Esmeralda

 * (Earle is knocking down the slope mechanism)
 * Nandy: What that big noise?
 * Esmeralda: I don't know, but it could start an avalanche!
 * Everyone off the slopes!

Ivana

 * Yes, adult boars would be much bigger, smellier too, than that one! The parents would be very worried about their babies if they went missing.(notices a bunch of boars on the nearby scarp) In fact...



Mike

 * (Phil crashes back onto Earth)
 * Trade cool! Right into the next door neighbor's
 * swimming pool.

 * Cro was a smart boy,
 * Had a lot on the ball
 * But the family that took him in

 * Of his mammoth friend named Phil
 * Who was found by the scientist Dr. C
 * And Mike in the Arctic Chill
 * (Oh...)
 * Phil fell into a glacier
 * It was like a big deep-freeze
 * But he was brought back to life to his surprise
 * In the 20th Century
 * So listen as Phil takes us back
 * To wonders of long ago
 * And we've a tale of Woollyville
 * And an Ice age boy named
