As the penguins stood atop their platform one morning preparing for the day, Julien suddenly popped out from nowhere.
"Greetings, my feathery subjects!" he zei with a smile. "I have come to u with a challenge."
"Challenge?" Skipper chuckled. "Anything u can do we can do better, ring-tail."
"Don't bet on it, my friend," Julien stated. "You will be eating the Humboldt pie for sure."
"I think u meant humble pie just then," Kowalski corrected. "The 'Humboldt,' of Spheniscus humboldti, is a pinguïn species found in South America, while the expression 'to eat humble pie' refers to–"
"Kowalski!" Skipper shouted. "Let it go."
Julien then walked between Skipper and Kowalski.
"Eh, I hate to interrupt," he said, "but there is still the matter of my challenge."
"Just name it, ring-tail," Skipper replied. "There is nothing – except flying, I suppose – that penguins can't do."
"Nothing?" Julien asked.
"Read my beak: There is nothing we can't do," Skipper responded with great confidence.
"Good," Julien smirked as he stuck out his right paw. "I challenge u to a thumb wrestling contest."
Skipper's eyes suddenly widened; he then stood silent in shock before soon fainting backwards.
"I guess I win door knockout," Julien smiled.
