Trumpkin Quotes in The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)

Reepicheep: We were expecting someone taller!

Trumpkin: You're one to talk.

Reepicheep: Is that supposed to be irony?

[after rescuing Trumpkin]

Lucy Pevensie: Why were they trying to kill you, anyway?

Trumpkin: They're Telmarines. That's what they do.

Edmund Pevensie: Telmarines? In Narnia?

Trumpkin: Where have you been for the last few hundred years?

Lucy Pevensie: That's a bit of a long story.

[Susan hands Peter his sword, and comprehension dawns on Trumpkin]

Trumpkin: Oh, you've got to be kidding me. You're it? You're the kings and queens of old?

Peter Pevensie: High King Peter the Magnificent.

Susan Pevensie: [to Peter] You probably could have left off the last bit.

Trumpkin: [chuckling] Probably.

[after Lucy is nearly attacked by a bear]

Susan Pevensie: Why wouldn't he stop?

Trumpkin: I suspect he was hungry.

Lucy Pevensie: Thanks.

Edmund Pevensie: He was wild.

Peter Pevensie: I don't think he could talk at all.

Trumpkin: You get treated like a dumb animal long enough, that's what you become. You may find Narnia a more savage place than you remember.

Lucy Pevensie: They're so still.

Trumpkin: The trees? What did you expect?

Lucy Pevensie: They used to dance.

Lucy Pevensie: I wish you would all stop trying to sound like grown-ups! I didn't think I saw him, I did see him.

Trumpkin: I *am* a grown-up.

Susan Pevensie: [referring to Peter] I wish he'd just listened to the D.L.F. in the first place!

Edmund Pevensie: D.L.F.?

Lucy Pevensie: Dear Little Friend.

Trumpkin: Oh... that's not at all patronizing, is it?

Peter Pevensie: So, where exactly do you think you saw Aslan?

Lucy Pevensie: [turns to him] I wish you'd all stop trying to sound like grown-ups. I don't think I saw him, I did see him.

Trumpkin: [mutters] I *am* a grown-up.

Lucy Pevensie: It was right over...

[screams as she falls]

Susan Pevensie: Lucy!

Lucy Pevensie: [looks up at everyone] ... here.

Peter Pevensie: [looking down a cliff over the water] Is there a way down?

Trumpkin: Yes. Falling.

[after Edmund bests Trumpkin in a sword fight]

Trumpkin: Beards and bedsteads! It looks like that horn worked after all.

Susan Pevensie: What horn?

Susan Pevensie: [aiming her bow and arrow at the Telmarines who have Trumpkin tied up in their boat] Drop him!

[They toss Trumpkin in the water. Susan shoots one Telmarine and he falls overboard; the other leaps over the side and swims away]

Trumpkin: [to Susan, after being rescued] Drop him? That's the best you can come up with?

Trumpkin: And you wonder why we don't like you.
