- In the beginning of the movie, the penguins break into Fort Knox. Not for the gold, but to get to one of the vending machines.'
- Everything Private does in the third act:
- He utilizes the paperclip that he took from Rico and escapes being mutated by Dave.
- He even gives Classified (and by extension, all of North Wind) a What the Hell, Hero? speech when they decide to go back to their headquarters instead of immediately rescuing the penguins.Private: Wait! Skipper, Kowalski, Rico! All those penguins! They're this way!
Classified: So is a massive army of octopi, and as soon as we return to the North Wind Headquarters, grab fresh equipment, and work up a smashing new plan, we'll come speeding back [says dramatically] and take down Dave.
Private: But the penguins are in danger! We have to go now!
Classified: Again, huge army of octopi!
Private: So because you failed once, you're just running away?
Classified: [indignant] We did not fail and we are not running away! We're... just.. very sensibly regrouping.
Private: Skipper wouldn't care, plan or no, fancy equipment or no! He'd never leave a man behind!
Classified: Well, I suppose we can't all be penguins, can we?
[North Wind begins to walks away. Private looks downcast, but responds.]
Private: No...
[North Wind stops and looks back at Private]
Private: ... but maybe you should be. [walks away] - He becomes the antidote for saving the penguins by using his cuteness.
- And when Dave breaks into the glass dome of the mutant-ray to get him, Private punches Dave in the face. WITH HIS BUTT-HAND! And Dave also loses a tooth because of it.
- The very beginning when the baby penguins sees Private's egg rolling. Skipper immediately races after it, even though the adults tell him to ignore it. From there the team faces a cliff, an army of leopard seals, and in the end blow up a ship! And keep in mind that they were babies when all this went down. To quote Kowalski.Baby!Kowalski: We are really... awesome at this!
- The introduction of the North Wind. Unfortunately, that's about as cool as they get in the entire movie.
- The Penguin's initial mission to capture Dave. It looks like another awesome success like all their previous missions until Dave escapes down a pipe.
- The entire sequence starting from when the penguins find out that they were in a box headed to Madagascar to them landing in the desert with a bouncy castle. It's done in one "shot", and it's amazing.
- Skipper shooting a Cheezy Dibble at the Medusa Serum remote! Dave and his minions’ reactions says it all.
