Gertie: No, but I wanted to! I had seen a really cute sweater that I wanted. 
Pig Pen: Well, I was fine with not having to get up that early! 

Lady: Oh! SilkiesForEver! I'm so sorry about Hope! 
But hello Snow! 

Captain Flint: By the way, we won't be able to make it to the party! 

 I'll miss out on all that food! 

Princess: Missing food is what he's really sad about! 
 And not being able to show of his beautiful plumage to all the ladies.  
Miss Terry: Well, I'm molting right now, so I'm not exactly in a condition to be going to a party. What would others, especially all the other barred rocks, think of my ugly feathers!
