Zarok: sneering Y-you caught me, but j-jewel be sorry for it.
"Caught you stealing, huh? Quite the piece of work you turned out to be."
Zarok: Oh, I'm not a thief, little human. I'm just an opportunist, and that gem was just begging to be taken.
"Shapeshifter, huh? Heard of you. Impressive tricks."
Zarok: smirking Oh, so you've heard of me. That's good. But you have no idea how much trouble you've saved yourself by catching me.
"Trouble saved? More like avoided."
Zarok: laughs menacingly Ah, but you see, human, trouble has a way of finding me. And when it does, it's always a lot more trouble than anyone could imagine.
"Well, you're in a tight spot now, aren't you?"
Zarok: narrows eyes Tight spot? I don't think so, human. You see, I've got connections all over the galaxy. Friends in high places.
"High places, huh? We'll see about that."
Zarok: leans in closer to the bars You think you know who I am, don't you, little human? Well, let me tell you, I'm not just any ordinary alien.
"Not ordinary? That's an understatement."
Zarok: smirks You're right, human. I'm not just an ordinary alien. I'm Zarok, the most cunning and elusive thief in the entire galaxy.
"Cunning thief? Don't make me laugh."
Zarok: raises an eyebrow Laugh, human? I dare you. You see, I've been able to escape from the clutches of even the most secure prisons in the galaxy.
"Secured prisons? You're full of surprises, aren't you?"
Zarok: grins Oh, human, you have no idea. I've stolen the most precious artifacts from the wealthiest aliens. And now, with your help, I might just get my hands on something even more valuable.
"Something valuable? What are you after now, thief?"
Zarok: leans back, smirking Oh, human, you'll see. I have my eyes on something that will make even your head spin.
"Make my head spin? Sounds enticing."
Zarok: raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, it will, human. This time, I'm after something that will change the course of history.
"History-changing artifact, eh? Tell me more."
Zarok: leans in closer, voice low Alright, human, listen carefully.
"Alright, I'm listening."
Zarok: pauses dramatically I've heard of a hidden temple deep within an uncharted galaxy. Legends say it contains relics of unimaginable power.
"Hidden temple? Relics of power? This is getting interesting."
Zarok: leans back, grinning Interesting? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, human.
"Opportunity? You mean, like, the chance to rob a kingdom?"
Zarok: laughs Kingdoms are nothing compared to what we're talking about here, human. We're talking about ancient artifacts that could grant unimaginable powers.
"Ancient artifacts? Powers? You're not messing around, are you?"
Zarok: leans in closer, voice low Oh, human, I'm not messing around. This is the real deal.
