It didn't take too long for the truck to reach the airport and it didn't take much longer to get the crate on a plane bound for Madagascar. About on hour after that, the plane was finally cleared for take off and it was off. A few more hours into the flight, the male lemurs all fell asleep while Marlene couldn't. She just sat in the crate, stared at Julien, and let out another sigh. Marie patted Marlene's head and tried to comfort her.
"There there dear. Everthing will be okay. You just let me and my subjects take care of everything," Marie said soothingly to Marlene.
Marlene wiped a tear from her eye and said, "It's not that I'm worried about. It's... something else."
Marie chuckled softly and said, "Don't worry. I figure that your the same size as I was when I was younger. So I'll give you my old dress. Also our doctors will take care of your... flaws."
Marlene gasped and said, "Flaws? You think I have flaws? And what's this about a dress? Why would you have wedding clothes?"
Marie nodded and placed one of her paws on Marlene's back.
"You spine isn't straight. A little work back here will help. Just so you know, the process might be a little painful, but it is worth it. Also you have a little blemish near your eye, but your veil will take care of that," Marie explained.
"And about the dress? Where did you get that idea from?" Marlene asked.
Marie chuckled and said, "Oh from pictures that humans have left on Madagascar. We've kind of made it into one our royal customs. You should rest dear. There is much to be done before the wedding can commence," Maries explained some more.
Marlene groaned once more and went back to sulking.
Marie chuckled once more and said, "I was a nervous bride before my wedding too. You'll get over it."
Marlene shook her head and remained silent.

Alice was yammering into the phone while the penguins and Dave were stuck in seperate cages. Alice kept blabbing on about the penguins not staying in their habitat and about Dave.
"I don't know, maybe he's sterile... Well he's been here for eleven monthes now and the female hasn't been with child... yeah I call him a dud too," Alice yammered on into the phone.
Dave groaned and said, "My name is Dave you dumb ass."
All Alice could hear was otter sounds and blew him off.
Dave groaned again and said, "Up your's bimbo."
Rico growled and babbled, "Hey that's my line buddy." (Do ya get it?)
"Can it you two. We have more pressing matters than Alice right now. Who knows what sick,twisted things that lemur woman could be doing to Marlene right now? To my Marlene?" Skipper said with sorrow in the last sentence.
Private went wide eyed and said, "What was that Skippa?"
Skipper stammered for a moment and said, "I meant our Marlene. Yeah our Marlene."
Everyone still gave weirded out looks at Skipper.
"Oh come on, it was just a slip of the tounge. Now Kowalski do you have any options?" Skipper said and turned to Kowalski.
Kowalski whipped out his notepad and said, "Well from the looks of things Skipper, we may have to choice but brute force... against Alice."
Skipper smiled and said, "I like that idea."
Dave nodded and said, "Count me in as well."
"Now we just need to get out of here, but no one here has thumbs. In fact the closest to fingers here would be Dave," Kowalski said.
Everyone looked at Dave and Dave groaned.
"So you guys expect me to get us out of here. And how exactly am I supposed to do that if you don't mind me asking? As you said, none of us have thumbs," Dave asked angrily.
Kowalski groaned and said, "But you have fingers to say the least. Maybe you can grip the lifty thing that keeps these cages locked. We need you to do that. Can you?"
Dave sighed and said, "I can try to say the least."
Dave stuck his arm out of the cage and tried to grip the lock mechanism. It was hard seeing as the lack of a thumb made it hard to grab the thing. He tried to grip it between to fingers of his paw, but kept slipping.
"Come on Dave, you can do it," Dave said to himself and tried again.
This time he grabbed it quickly and managed to wedge the mechanism between two fingers.
"Alright, I got it," Dave said as he began pulling down on it.
The mechanism slipped from between the fingers, but Dave grabbed it again. This time he turned some more and finally heard the click. He had successfully unlocked the cage. Dave slowly and quietly opened the door and climbed out of his cage.
The penguins cheered quietly and Skipper said, "Okay Dave, now let us out."
Dave looked at Alice and said, "I will in just a second guys, but first I need a little payback."
Alice was still talking into the phone.
"Yeah I think we might be able to replace him. Just need a little time to-," Alice said but was cut off by a sharp strike to the back of her neck.
She sat still for a moment and then she fell to the floor unconcious.
"The name is Dave, not dud," Dave said to Alice's unconcious form.
Dave turned back to the guys and climbed up to them.
"Sorry guys, I just had to do that," Dave said.
Skipper nodded and said, "Not bad Dave, now get us out of here."
Dave nodded and worked at the mechanism on Skipper's cage and then on the others. As soon as everyone was out, they began the next phase of their plan.
"Okay so what do we do now Skippa? There's no telling where that lemur took Marlene," Private said.
SKipper nodded and said, "Yes, but we know who can help us and getting that information isn't going to be easy."
"Who Skippa?" Private asked.
"We're going to have to go to Darla. She had a role in that lemur womans plan and therefore must know something. She might even be able to tell us why she took Marlene. But with the threat of backwoods magic, it's not going to be easy," Skipper said.
Kowalski scoffed and said, "Skipper I already told and everyone else over and over again. Science doesn't allow for the existence of magic."
Skipper growled and slapped Kowalski.
"Kowalski you saw what Darla was doing out there. Where did that bubble thing come from? Can you explain it? I don't think you can. So let's head over there and interogate that babbon. You all have your orders, so follow them," Skipper said and walked off grumbling.
Private gulped and said, "Gee, I've never seen Skippa this angry before."
Kowalski shrugged and said, "Well he and Marlene have a good friendship. She's one of the few that he never gave a nickname to."
Dave shook his head and said, "I don't think it has to do with friendship. In fact I think it's about more than friendship. I don't know, let's just follow him."
The other penguins nodded and they followed Dave and Skipper out.
"There there dear. Everthing will be okay. You just let me and my subjects take care of everything," Marie said soothingly to Marlene.
Marlene wiped a tear from her eye and said, "It's not that I'm worried about. It's... something else."
