  Professor Fruen : Who's there? What is the meaning of this?

• Gung : Foolish mortals!

  Emperor Zombie : [shoots Gung]  Do I look mortal to you?

  Screw-On Head : Then say it!

  Emperor Zombie : Poppycock.

• Screw-On Head : You let America down...

  Emperor Zombie : You let me down. You went on and on about how sweet the candy was, then told me not to put it in my mouth, and got mad at me when I did.

  Screw-On Head : If by "candy," you mean ancient forbidden evil, then yes, I told you not to put it in your mouth.

  Emperor Zombie : By all means, lets! Emperor Zombie, how do you do? I'm here to advise you on dispensing horror in this modern military climate. I understand you're a demigod, that's fantastic!

  The Demigod : Oh, I don't know about fantastic...

  Emperor Zombie : I do! If I may be so bold?

  The Demigod : Be bold. I command you!

  Emperor Zombie : Boo-hoo, you had your chance.

• Emperor Zombie : [to Mr. Dog]  Mr. Dog! Did you come to save the day?

  Emperor Zombie : Well, the show's over now, Mr. Dog, and this time you didn't win.

  [shoots Mr. Dog several times; Mr. Dog continues to stand and growl] 

  Emperor Zombie : [to Demigod]  Um, would you mind stepping on him?

  [whispers] 

  Patience the Vampire : No!

• Emperor Zombie : Not the face!

  [sees the artifact, which is a turnip] 

  Emperor Zombie : Ew!

  [drops it] 

  Emperor Zombie : It's not a jewel, it's a dirty old piece of crap!

• Emperor Zombie : There's artillery now, big guns that shoot giant rocks that bruise and dismember, which is why you need artillery, too.

  Geraldine : [whispers]  And an army of the undead.

  The Demigod : Ooh, I always wanted one of those.

  Emperor Zombie : You dig up the corpses and I'll make them your slaves.

• Emperor Zombie : Any last words before I spark it?
