(just like you can't change your sexuality.)" He then leaves. It ain't so hard." Mumble then replies, "Don't ask me to change, Pa, cause I can't. Heed his suffering heart and repent (just like priests tell you to repent from being gay because it's a 'sin'.)" The father pleads, "Please son, you can do this.

Norma Jean then says "There's nothing wrong with him!" the father says "Face it, our son's all messed up!" They go back and forth, the mother arguing that there's nothing wrong with Mumble. Listen boy, I was a backslider myself (I used to "be gay" myself), I was careless, and now we're paying the price." The dad then says it's his fault Mumble is the way he is (Kinda how fathers blame themselves for their sons being gay).

If we are devout, sincere in our ways, the fish will return. He says to Mumble, " You must renounce your 'so- called friends', your peculiar thoughts and strange ways. Noah comes in "Descent leads to division and division leads us to doom! You, Mumble 'Happy Feet', must go!" The mom then tells Mumble not to leave and says "You have just as much right to be here as anyone else!" The dad, angry, then tells his wife to let him handle this. A leader then says, "He drove the fish away, and now he's ranting this rubbish!" He then calls Mumble's "foreign" friend "Filthy vermin" and slaps him. The city then starts to call Mumble insane. The leader says, "Do you not understand that we can only survive if we live together in harmony? Then you and your foreign friends lead us into your easy ways? You offend the great Guin! (God?)You invite him to withhold his bounty! He controls the seasons! He giveth and he taketh away! (A Bible reference)" Mumble then replies, "Happy feet can't cause a famine!" Noah says "If happy feet didn't cause it then what did?" Mumble then explains that he believes there are forces out of our control causing it. It hurts nobody.) Noah's reply, " Harmless? It's this kind of backsliding that brought this scarcity upon us!" Mumble then realizes the leaders think the food shortage has something to do with his "Happy feet". Noah then starts yelling, "Stop! Stop this unruly nonsense! A little self control if you please! You bring this disorder, this apparition to the very heart of our community!Have you lost your mind?! " The penguins, confused, stop, and one says "We're just having fun, harmless fun!" (Maybe how we reference gay marriage as harmless. The find Noah and say "Behold, this was an omen from the start! And now we have this uprising!" Referring to Mumble and his "Happy feet". You then hear the lead penguins saying "Disgraceful! Who do they think they are? Where is Noah? This is getting out of hand!"(I'm assuming Noah is the overall leader). All of the penguins of the class eventually accept him, then all of them join in with him. Gloria find out the truth, but Mumble then decides to come clean and keeps moving his "Happy feet" in hopes that he will be accepted. They then go back and his friends make a song for him, which he then lip synchs for Gloria (Maybe irl would be known as "Bearding"). He then finds the mexican penguins who think his "happy feet" are cool. The kids, now adults continue to alienate him by not letting him join their songs. Also keep in mind while the mother was supportive of Mumble's "Happy feet", the father was not, and he was worried about his reputation.) He wants to be like the others, so he attends the graduation ceremonies even though the king penguin doesn't allow him to graduate (Maybe a religious leader, maybe irl this would be a Catholic school). He then is made fun of by the other kids and sits in the back of the class (Like a gay kid would experience this alienation for coming out.
#Happy feet mumble quotes how to#
The parents take him to a teacher to learn how to sing (Conversion therapy maybe?), but alas, he still can't sing and can't help his "Happy feet". Later on we learn that unlike the other penguins, he doesn't have a heartsong because he doesn't know how to sing. He also says "When your mom comes, stay still." And instead, Mumble keeps being him. The father tells him not to do that because it's "Not penguin". At the beginning, you see the father dropping the egg (Of course this has nothing to do with why Mumble hatches late but it was just there.) and when he hatches he does the thing with his feet.
