Eep Quotes in The Croods (2013)

Guy: Once upon a time, there was a beautiful tiger. She lived in a cave with the rest of her family. Her father and mother told her: "You may go anywhere you want, but never go near the cliff, for you could fall."

Grug: And fall. Good story.

Guy: But when no one was looking, she go near the cliff, for the closer she came to the edge, the more could she hear, the more could she see, the more she could feel. Finally, she stood at the very edge. She saw a light. She leaned out to touch it... and she slipped.

Grug: And she fell.

Guy: And she flew.

Thunk: Where did she fly?

Guy: Tomorrow.

Eep: Tomorrow?

Guy: A place with more suns in the sky than you can count.

Thunk: It would be so bright!

Guy: A place not like today, or yesterday. A place where things are better.

Grug: Tomorrow isn't a place. It's-it's-it... Ugh! You can't see it!

Guy: Oh, yes, yes it is. I've seen it. That's where I'm going.

Eep: Dad, I'm afraid.

Grug: Never be afraid.

Eep: [Grug hugs Eep] This is good... what do you call this?

Grug: I call it... a hug. Because it rhymes with Grug; but you can always change it if you don't like it.

Eep: No,

[Hugs Grug]

Eep: I like it.

Guy: You're really heavy.

Eep: [flattered] Really? Thank you!

Eep: Hey, do you have a minute? How did the tiger fly?

Guy: I only share when I'm outside the log. I'm funny that way.

[first lines]

Eep: With every sun comes a new day. A new beginning. A hope that things will be better today than they were yesterday. But not for me. My name is Eep. And this is my family, the Croods. If you weren't clued in already by the animal skins and sloping foreheads, we're cavemen. Most days we spend in our cave, in the dark. Night after night, day after day. Yep, home sweet home. When we did go out, we struggled to find food in a harsh and hostile world. And I struggled to survive my family. We were the last ones around. There used to be neighbors. Uh, the Gorts, smashed by a mammoth. The Horks, swallowed by a sand snake. The Erfs, mosquito bite. Throgs, common cold. And the Croods, that's us. The Croods made it, because of my dad. He was strong, and he followed the rules. The ones painted on the cave walls. Anything new is bad. Curiosity is bad. Going out at night is bad. Basically, anything fun is bad. Welcome to my world! But this is a story about how all that changed in an instant. Because what we didn't know was that our world was about to come to an end. And there were no rules on our cave walls to prepare us for that.

Eep: I never got to tell him.

Ugga: Eep, if your dad were here, he would tell you to...

Grug: [from afar] Get out of the way!

Thunk: Wow. You sound just like him.

Eep: So how did the tiger fly?

Guy: She jumped on the sun. Rode it to tomorrow.

Guy: Okay, open them. I call them shoes.

Eep: [Opens her eyes and screams in panic and excitement] I *LOVE* them! Where are my feet!

Guy: Don't worry! They're still there.

Guy: I can't believe your family has never seen rain!

Eep: We don't get out much.

Grug: Don't. It could be dangerous.

Eep: Dad, you always say that.

Guy: Careful.

Eep: Oh, okay.

[Grug sighs in exasperation]

Grug: Three days is not forever!

Eep: It is with this family.

Guy: [watching Grug and Thunk "hunting"] What're they doing?

Eep: Hunting

Guy: No seriously, what're they doing?

Guy: Stay here if you want, but let me go! I've got a dream! A mission! A reason to live!

Eep: Not anymore!

Eep: [talking about Guy] I thought he was a warthog, but then he turned into a boy.

Gran: Strange, it's usually the reverse.

Eep: Hi fire.

Guy: [laughing] It's not actually alive.

Eep: But you said it was dying.

Guy: [pause] Sorry.

Grug: What were you doing up there?

Eep: I don't know.

Grug: What were you looking for?

Eep: Nothing.

Grug: Why did you go there?

Eep: I don't know!

Grug: Why don't you know?

Guy: [sees Eep watching Grug and Thunk hunt] You look tense.

Eep: [in denial] I'm not tense
