- Behold... the dog. We know him as man's best friend, but... what do we really know? In truth, all dogs belong to a secret organization dedicated to keeping mankind safe from REALLY BAD STUFF. These are their amazing true stories. These are the Secret Files of the Spydogs! (played over opening credits)
- That's right, ya wee parasites. Run away back to your mothers. Because those are my big, floppy foam hats down there. Ohh... they said it wouldn't work. They said, what are you going to do with expandable big floppy foam hats? Well save the blinkin' world, that's what! They laughed at me when I invented the big floppy foam hat. Well who's laughing now, tell me that? Who's laughing now! HA! HA! HA! - Angus
- I've devised a plan! It's a crazy plan, but a plan nonetheless!
