Putting the Foot Down

Like Releasing Stress, Putting the Foot Down is a positive alternative to the Villainous Breakdown. In this situation, the hero or heroine reaches the end of his or her rope. He or she channels that into making a firm policy, making a clear statement, and/or using firm discipline, whether it's scolding someone for doing something terrible or standing up against the villain.

"(Judy Hopps rolls Duke Weaselton, who is tied up with the donut sign, towards Benjamin Clawhauser. She plants her fists on her hips in triumph.) (Judy: I POPPED the weasel!) (Suddenly, above her, Chief Bogo breathes fire.) HOPPS! (Judy looks up. Bogo points down the hallway, motioning for her to go to his office. Inside, Judy is like a kid in the principal's office, and Chief Bogo lists Judy's reckless actions.) Abandoning your post, inciting a scurry, reckless endangerment of rodents...but, to be fair, you did stop a master criminal from stealing two dozen moldy onions. (Bogo places the bag of bulbs Judy confiscated from Weaselton on his desk.) (Judy, trying to reason with her boss: Hate to disagree with you, sir, but those aren't onions. Those are pest riddance called Midnicampum holicithias. They're a class C botanical, sir. Well, I grew up in a family where plant husbandry was kind of a thing...) (fuming) Shut your tiny mouth now! (Judy, firmly: Sir, I got the bad guy. That's my job.) (sternly) Your job is putting tickets on parked cars! (The intercom beeps and Clawhauser's voice rings out.) (Clawhauser: Chief, Mrs. Otterton's here to see you again.) Not now. (Clawhauser: Okay, I just need to know if you want to take it this time. She seems really upset...) NOT NOW! (Judy, sincerely: Sir, I don't wanna be a meter maid. I wanna be a REAL cop.) Do you think the mayor asked what I wanted when he assigned you to me? (Judy: But sir - ) (Bogo cuts her off.)

(Diego: Listen, I can help you) Stay close, Sid. We can fight our way out. (Diego: You can't. The pack's too strong. You have to trust me) Trust you? Why in the world would we trust you?

I mean, it's not like a bunny can go savage.) Right. But a fox could, huh? (Judy: Nick, stop it. You're not like them.) (Nick gets angry) Oh, there's a "them", now? (Judy: Ugh. You know what I mean. You're not that kind of predator.) The kind that needs to get muzzled? The kind that makes you believe that you need to carry around fox repellent? Yeah, don't think I didn't notice that little item on the first time we met. So l-let me ask you a question: Are you afraid of me? (Judy didn't answer.) Do you think I might go nuts? Do you think I might go savage? Do you think I might try to...(Nick jumps forward) EAT YOU? (Judy jumps back, and she puts her hand over Fox Spray.) I knew it.
