Baby Groot : I am Groot.
Yondu : What's that?
Rocket : He says, "Welcome to the frickin' Guardians of the Galaxy." Only he didn't use "frickin'."
-
Groot : I am Groot.
Rocket : He hates hats.
Groot : I am Groot.
Rocket : On anyone, not just himself.
Groot : I am Groot.
Rocket : [to Yondu] One minute you think someone has a weird-shaped head, the next minute it's just because you realize part of that head is the hat.
Rocket : [to Groot] That's why you don't like hats?

[showing Groot how to arm the bomb]
Rocket : All right, first you flick this switch, then this switch. That activates it. Then you push this button, which will give you five minutes to get out of there. Now, whatever you do, don't push *this* button, because that will set off the bomb immediately and we'll all be dead. Now, repeat back what I just said.
Groot : I am Groot.
Rocket : Uh-huh.
Groot : I am Groot.
Rocket : That's right.
Groot : [pointing to the death button] I am Groot.
Rocket : No! No, that's the button that will kill everyone! Try again.
Groot : Hmm. I am Groot.
Rocket : Mmm-hmm.
Groot : I am Groot?
Rocket : Uh-huh.
Groot : [pointing to the death button] I am Groot.
Rocket : No! That's exactly what you just said! How is that even possible? Which button is the button you're supposed to push? Point to it.
[Groot points to the death button]
Rocket : *No*!

Groot : [Repeated line] I am Groot.

[Peter Quill comes into Groot's room, sees that his room are mess with vines and Teen Groot playing mind-numbing game]
Peter Quill : Ohh! Dude! Seriously? You've gotta clean up your room, it's a complete mess!
Groot : I am Groot.
Peter Quill : I'm not boring, you're boring! You know what's boring? Sitting there, playing that mind-numbing game, what's boring is me, tripping over your vines every day. I'm not boring!
Groot : I am Groot.
Peter Quill : And now, I know how Yondu felt.

[Yondu and Rocket are held captive in a cage. Yondu notices Groot walking nearby]
Yondu : Psst! Hey, twig! Come here. Come on.
[Groot approaches the cage. He looks sad]
Rocket : [sighs] Aw, man... what did they do to you?
Yondu : [smiles] Hey, you wanna help us get outta here?
[Groot nods]
Yondu : There's something I need you to get, and bring back to me. In the captain's quarters, there's a prototype fin... the thing I wore on my head. There's a drawer next to the bunk. It's in that. It's red. You got it?
[Groot nods and rushes away. Yondu smiles, thinking the problem is solved. Rocket rolls his eyes and sighs. Groot quietly passes by the sleeping Ravagers. He returns with... Yondu's underwear. Rocket facepalms]
Yondu : [dryly] That's my underwears.
Rocket : Yeah, I was pretty sure he didn't know what you were talkin' about. You have to explain it more careful.
Yondu : [slowly] It's a prototype fin.
[Groot brings a orloni. The rodent screeches furiously, attempting to break free]
Rocket : That's an orloni. It's a fin, Groot.
Yondu : You explain it this time.
Rocket : All right.
[next, Groot brings a prosthetic eye]
Yondu : That's Vorker's eye. He takes it out when he sleeps. Go. Look again.
[Groot starts walking away]
Rocket : But leave the eye here.
Yondu : Why?
Rocket : [laughs] He's gonna wake up tomorrow... and he's not gonna know... where his eye is! Ha-ha-ha!
[next, Groot brings a desk. Yondu and Rocket nearly freak out]
Yondu : That's a desk.
Rocket : [to Groot] We told you it was this big.
[next, Groot brings a severed human toe. Yondu and Rocket feel sick]
Rocket : Tell me you guys have a refrigerator somewhere... with a bunch of severed human toes.
[Yondu shakes his head]
Rocket : Okay. Then let's just agree to never discuss this.
[Yondu removes a leaf-shaped ornament from his suit and shows it to Groot]
Yondu : The drawer you wanna open has this symbol on it. Okay?
[Yondu hands the ornament to Groot. Groot examines it, confused, then places it on his head]
Yondu : What? No!
Rocket : He thinks you want him to wear it as a hat.
Yondu : [angrily] That's not what I said!
Groot : I am Groot.
Rocket : He's relieved you don't want him to.
Groot : I am Groot.

Groot : I am Groot.

Groot : I am Groot.
Rocket : One minute you think someone has a weird-shaped head... the next minute it's just because you realize part of that head is the hat. That's why you don't like hats?
[Groot nods]
Yondu : [impatiently] This is an important conversation right now?
[Groot goes again. He finds a drawer with a symbol similar to the shape of the ornament Yondu gave him. After making sure the ornament matches the symbol, Groot extends his arms and opens the drawer. He searches its contents and retrieves... a small box of candies. Groot rejoices, when suddenly he hears a voice near him]
Kraglin : That ain't it.
[Kraglin finds the fin. He approaches the cage with Groot and hands the fin to Yondu. Yondu glares at him]
Kraglin : [ashamed] I didn't mean to do a mutiny. They killed all my friends.
[pause]
Yondu : [sharply] Get the third quadrant ready for release.
[Kraglin salutes and places Groot behind the bars of the cage, then starts walking away]
Rocket : One more thing.
[Kraglin stops]
Rocket : You got any clones of Quill's old music on the ship?
[Kraglin looks strangely at Rocket]
