• Snake: It lays eggs and throws them, right? ...Then it must be female.
• Otacon: ...Actually, it's a "he". At least, that's what it says.
• Snake: It talks?!!
• Otacon: Yes! It talks! Well, kind of...
• Snake: Now you've got me curious... How about I capture one so we can see what they taste like?
