- Batman: [while under attack] To the Batmobile!
- [the Bad Guys shoot at the Batmobile, blowing it up]
- Batman: Dang it...
- Wonder Woman: To the Invisible Jet!
- [the Bad Guys shoot at an empty space next to the Batmobile, causing an explosion]
- Wonder Woman: Dang it...
- Batman: [to Lucy] If this relationship is going to work out between us I need to feel free to party with a bunch of strangers whenever I feel like it. I will text you.
- Emmet: You don't have to be the bad guy. You are the most talented, most interesting, and most extraordinary person in the universe. And you are capable of amazing things. Because you are the Special. And so am I. And so is everyone. The prophecy is made up, but it's also true. It's about all of us. Right now, it's about you. And you... still... can change everything.
- Bad Cop: Playing dumb, Masterbuilder?
- Emmet: No! I- Masterbuilder?
- Bad Cop: Oh, so you've never heard of the prophecy?
- Emmet: No, I...
- Bad Cop: Or the Special?
- Emmet: No! No, I...
- Bad Cop: You're a liar!
- [Starts kicking and wrestling a chair]
- Emmet: Look, um... I watch a lot of cop shows on TV... isn't there supposed to be a-... Isn't there supposed to be a good cop?
- Bad Cop: [Body slams chair and then throws it across the room] Oh yes, but we're not done yet.
- [Face changes to the cheerful Good Cop]
- Bad Cop: Hi, buddy! I'm your friendly neighborhood police officer! Would you like a glass of water?
- [Sets cup of water on table]
- Emmet: Yeah.
- [reaches for cup]
- Emmet: Yeah, actually...
- Bad Cop: [face changes back to Bad Cop] Too bad.
- [Knocks cup off the table]
- The Man Upstairs: You know the rules, this isn't a toy!
- Finn: Um... it kind of is.
- The Man Upstairs: No, actually it's a highly sophisticated inter-locking brick system.
- Finn: But we bought it at the toy store.
- The Man Upstairs: We did, but the way I'm using it makes it an adult thing.
- Finn: The box for this one said "Ages 8 to 14"!
- The Man Upstairs: That's a suggestion. They have to put that on there.
- Lucy: Today will not be known as Taco Tuesday. It will be known as freedom Friday, but still on a Tuesday!
- [to Lord Business]
- Vitruvius: One day, a talented lass or fellow, a special one with face of yellow, will make the Piece of Resistance found from its hiding refuge underground, and with a noble army at the helm, this Master Builder will thwart the Kragle and save the realm, and be the greatest, most interesting, most important person of all times. All this is true because it rhymes.
- Benny: Disable the shield! Come on! You are undermining me!
- Computer: Which phrase would you like me to underline?
- Benny: Disable the shield!
- Metalbeard: Let me try.
- [to the computer]
- Metalbeard: Be ye disabling of yond shield.
- Computer: Disabling shield.
- Benny: What?
- President Business: Hi, I'm President Business, president of the Octan corporation and the world. Let's take extra care to follow the instructions or you'll be put to sleep, and don't forget Taco Tuesday's coming next week.
- Green Lantern: Don't worry, Superman, I'll get you out of there!
- Superman: [covered in gum] No, don't!
- Green Lantern: Oh, my gosh, my hands are stuck. My legs are stuck as well.
- Superman: I super hate you.
- Batman: I don't mean to spoil the party, but does anyone else notice we're stuck in the middle of the ocean on this couch? I mean it's not like a like a big gigantic ship is just gonna come out of nowhere and save us MY GOSH.
- Emmet: Hey, uh, listen. Do you think you can explain to me why I'm dressed like this? And what those big words in the sky were all about? And, like, where we are... in time?
- Lucy: Your home, Bricksburgh, is one of many realms in the universe. There's also this one, Pirates Cove, Knights Club, Vikings Landing, Clown Town, and a bunch of others we don't even mention. Lord Business, or as you think you know him, President Business, stole the Kragl, the most powerful object in the universe...
- [in slow dreamy voice]
- Lucy: ... blah, blah, blah. Proper name. Place name. Backstory stuff...
- Emmet: Mmm-hmmm
- Lucy: [in normal voice] ... is the Special. The Special...
- [in slow dreamy voice]
- Lucy: ... I'm so pretty. I like you. But I'm angry with you for some reason...
- Emmet: Mmm-hmmm
- Lucy: [in normal voice] ... put the Piece of Resistance onto the Kragl and disarm it forever!
- Emmet: Great. I think I got it. But just in case... tell me the whole thing again, I wasn't listening.
- Vitruvius: We are entering your mind...
- Emmet: What?
- Vitruvius: To prove that you have the unlocked potential to be a Master Builder.
- [Vitruvius and Wyldstyle make chanting noises around Emmet, followed by a big flash of light]
- Emmet: [floating in space] Whoa, are we inside my brain right now? It's big. I must be smart.
- Vitruvius: I'm not hearing a whole lot of activity in here.
- Lucy: I don't think he's ever had an original thought... in his life.
- Emmet: [chuckles] That's not true. For instance, one time I wanted a bunch of my friends over to watch TV, not unlike this TV that just showed up magically. And not everybody can fit on my one couch, and I thought to myself, well, what if there's such a thing as a bunkbed but as a couch? Introducing the double decker couch! So everyone could watch TV together and be buddies!
- Lucy: That's literally the dumbest thing I ever heard.
- Vitruvius: Please, Wyldstyle, let me handle this. That idea is just the worst.
- Vitruvius: My fellow Master Builders. Including but not limited to Robin Hood, Mermaid Lady, Gandalf, Swamp Creature, 1980s Something Space Guy...
- Benny: Hello.
- Vitruvius: ...The 2002 NBA All Stars and Wonder Woman. You have traveled far to be here for a moment of great import. We have learned that Lord Business plans to unleash a fully-weaponized Kragle on Taco Tuesday to end the world as we know it.
- [the crowd gets restless]
- Vitruvius: Please calm yourselves Green Ninja, Milhouse, Nice Vampire, Michelangelo, Michelangelo, and Cleopatra. There is yet one hope. The Special has arisen.
- Gandalf: Have the young man step forward.
- Vitruvius: As you wish, Dubbledore.
- Gandalf: I'm Gandalf!
- Dumbledore: It's pronounced Dumbledore.
- Vitruvius: Dubbledore?
- Dumbledore: No, Dumbledore.
- Vitruvius: I thought you said Dubbledore.
- Gandalf: Vitruvius!
- Vitruvius: Ah, we gotta write all that down 'cause I'm not gonna remember any of it, but here we go. The Special will now give an eloquent speech.
- [to Emmet]
- Vitruvius: Go ahead man, you got this.
- Unikitty: So why did you come back?
- Metalbeard: This be-doubled land couch. I watched Lord Business' forces completely overlook it. Which means we need more ideas like it!
- Emmet: Oh, thank you.
- Metalbeard: Ideas so dumb and bad that no one would ever think they could possibly be useful.
- Emmet: Oh. Thank you.
- Robot: [At the Octan loading bay] Who are you here to see?
- Batman: I'm here to see... your butt!
- Robot: Is that a last name Butt, first name Your...?
- Robot: [Batman throws a Batarang at the Robot decapitating him] Oh, my gosh!
- [Batman and Benny laugh then Batman throws another Batarangs at the gate button but fails to hit it]
- Batman: Pow!
- [he throws another which still doesn't hit it]
- Batman: Wham!
- [he throws another and misses again]
- Batman: Kezap!
- [he then repeatedly throws the Batarangs until it finally hits the button making it go green]
- Batman: First try!
- Benny: [suddenly appears] Hey, I'm Ben! But you can call me Benny! And I can build a spaceship. Watch this.
- [starts building a spaceship]
- Benny: Spaceship! Spaceship! Spaceship! Spaceship! Spaceship!
- Lucy: No! You can't. The skies are surrounded.
- Benny: That's okay, I didn't really wanna build a spaceship. Anyway, that's cool.
- [kicks his half built spaceship and it falls apart]
- Vitruvius: Emmet...
- Emmet: Who said that?
- Vitruvius: I did. I am Ghost Vitruvius. Oooooh. Emmet, you didn't let me finish earlier because I died. The reason I made up the prophecy was because I knew that whoever found the piece could become the special. Because the only thing anyone needs to be special is to believe that you can be. I know that sounds like a cat poster but it's true. Look at what you did when you believed you were special. You just need to believe it some more.
- Emmet: But how could I just decide to believe that I'm special when I'm not?
- Vitruvius: Because the world depends on it. Ooooohh.
- Metalbeard: [describing President Business' office] ... Guarded by a robot army and secondary measures of every kind imaginable. Lasers, sharks, laser sharks, overbearing assistants...
- TV Presenter: We now return to "Where Are My Pants?"
- "Where are my pants?" guy: Honey? Where are my paaaaaaaants?
- Emmet: I'm just gonna come right out, I have no idea what's going on or what this place is at all.
- Unikitty: Hi! I am Princess Unikitty, and I welcome you all to Cloud Cuckoo Land!
- Emmet: So there are no signs on anything. How does anyone know what not to do?
- Unikitty: Here in Cloud Cuckoo Land, there are no rules: There's no government, no baby sitters, no bedtimes, no frowny faces, no bushy mustaches, and no negativity of any kind.
- Lucy: You just said the word "no" like a thousand times.
- Unikitty: And there's also no consistency.
- Batman: [the clown and the lizard man are dancing around him] I hate this place.
- Unikitty: Any idea is a good idea except the non-happy ones. Those we push down deep inside where you'll never, ever, ever, EVER find them!
- Vitruvius: Emmet, you had a vision.
- Emmet: I did?
- Vitruvius: MasterBuilders spend years training themselves to clear their minds enough to have even a fleeting glimpse of The Man Upstairs and yet, your mind is already so prodigiously empty that there is nothing in it to clear away in the first place. With proper training you could become a great MasterBuilder.
- Emmet: President Business is going to end the world? But he's such a good guy! And Octan, they make good stuff: music, dairy products, coffee, TV shows, surveillance systems, all history books, voting machines... wait a minute!
- [after Batman flies in and saves them]
- Batman: Relax, everybody, I'm here.
- Emmet: Batman!
- [to Lucy]
- Batman: What's up, babe?
- Lucy: Babe!
- Emmet: What?
- Lucy: Oh, sorry.
- [to Batman]
- Lucy: Batman, this is Emmet.
- [to Emmet]
- Lucy: Emmet, this is my boyfriend. Batman.
- Batman: I'm Batman.
- Emmet: That's your boyfriend?
- [Batman swerves his aircraft to avoid getting hit by Bad Cop as he chases after them]
- Emmet: Batman, huh? Where did you guys meet?
- Lucy: It's actually a funny story. Right, Bat...?
- [she turns to see Batman has disappeared]
- Bad Cop: There he is!
- Batman: Police to meet you, Bad Cop.
- [Bad Cop sees Batman has landed on his vehicle]
- Bad Cop: Batman! The pleasure is all mine!
- [Bad Cop punches Batman, then they start fighting on top of Bad Cop's vehicle]
- Batman: Guess what, you big dumb baby? Your car is a baby carriage.
- [Batman transforms Bad Cop's vehicle into a baby carriage and it starts plummeting to the ground]
- Emmet: [to the Master Builders] I have no experience fighting, leading or making plans. It's going to be really hard, but I...
- Metalbeard: [Gets up from his seat, yelling] Really hard?
- [Looming over Emmet]
- Metalbeard: WIPING YER BUM WITH A HOOK FOR A HAND IS REALLY HARD! THIS BE IMPOSSIBLE!
- Vitruvius: My sweet Emmet, come closer. You must know something about the prophecy.
- Emmet: I know. I'm doing my best but... I don't-I don't.
- Vitruvius: The prophecy... I made it up.
- Emmet: What?
- Vitruvius: I made it up. It's not true.
- Emmet: But that means I'm just... I'm not the special?
- Vitruvius: You must listen. What I'm about to tell you will change the course of history...
- [Dramatic pause. Then Vitruvius dies]
- Vitruvius: Blargh.
- President Business: Hi, I'm President Business, president of the Octan corporation and the world. Let's take extra care to follow the instructions,
- President Business: [Whispering] or you'll be put to sleep.
- President Business: And don't forget Taco Tuesday's coming next week! That's the day every rule-following citizen gets a free taco and my love. Have a great day, everybody!
- Emmet: You have a great day too, President Business. Man, he's such a cool guy. I always wanna hear more of what...
- Emmet: [Realized about Business] Wait, did he say "put to sleep"?
