Quotes

 * Patrick: Nebulous Industries is best known producing high-end tech. Loving your phones. So, why Mars? Why now?
 * Frank Nebula: Well, someone needs to step up and go to Mars.


 * John Trout: I think the boss has been working too hard.
 * Patrick: Today, we have the privilege to be shown around Nebulous HQ by the great Frank Nebula himself, as he prepares to launch for Mars in just two weeks' time. Mr. Nebula, are you okay with answering some questions from our viewers?
 * Frank Nebula: Of course, Patrick. Fire away.
 * Patrick: Leann in Texas asks, "Why use Rabbids? They're really stupid."


 * Frank Nebula: We can't show you in there since it houses the next generation of our top-secret product. But this coming out it isn't a secret. This device is designed to start a process called terraforming. It uses our Nebulous technology to gently heat the Martian surface and oxygenate the atmosphere on a microscopic level, which eventually will allow humans to live on Mars. And once that's happened, we can start work building high-tech eco-cities.
 * Patrick: Thank you, Mr. Nebula. We look forward to-- (Yelps)

 * Olivia: So, let's see. What are you hiding here?


 * Olivia: Hey. What's this?


 * Olivia: The terraforming device is a bomb!?


 * Frank Nebula: Just in case you've thinking of escaping, allow me to introduce my new obliterator droid. I do believe it's the one weapon capable of destroying a rabbid.


 * Frank Nebula: Mobilize all battle droids to the main hall.


 * Frank Nebula: You and your stupid friends had one job! Go to Mars and explode the mega bomb! SIMPLE!!
