DDR UNIVERSE 3:

• "Ok, now that you've finished foolin' around with your avatar...let's move on. (...) Now before we get the real show on the road, it's test time. I've got a simple challenge that will see if you've got the skills to make it in Dance Revolution. So, you ready?" (When you first enter Quest Mode and approach her)
  • "Aight, let's do this then! (...) That said, let's get stupid!" (If you say yes)
• "Just lookin' at ya, I thought you'd be more suited for cow tippin'. But hey, you've got moves and nobody can deny that. You've got what it takes to participate in Dance Revolution!" (After you beat her first challenge)
• "Fo' shizzle! You straight up smoked that challenge! Keep going like this and you'll be using Đ (Quest Mode Currency) as tissues!" (After you beat the other challenges)
• "Umm...I'm not sure if you just saw what I did, but you got schooled. Some of these challenges is like takin' candy from a baby, but this one just ate you alive. You might wanna try a different challenge." (After the player fails a song)
  • "Yo, stop playin'! Really? Let's bounce!" (If the player doesn't want to replay a failed song)
• "(...)Remember it, forget it, I ain't your mom!"
• "What are you still doin' here?! You better get to steppin'. Dance Dance City waits for no one. It's time to Dance Revolution to begin, ya heard me!"
• "Got waxed, eh? Win some, lose some...lose some more. Good news is that you can get served as much as you want!" (After the player loses a song and does not meet the goal).
• "This one's got spunk...and funk! Make sure you really understand what the challenge is about, before you go tax that."
• "What are you, a one trick pony? Killin' your feet by trying the same challenge...try taking a shot at something else. Then come back." (If you play the same challenge over and over again.)
• "One street. three challenges. I'd get to workin' if I were you. Not even one's been cleared yet."
• "Same drill, same drill. (...) ,try not to fall asleep. Then hit the floor and show em' what ya got. Oh, and try not to embarrass yourself."
• "You headin' ta (to?) (Club Name)? Aight, let's roll then!"
• "Woah..!...That's right, go back to where you came from! I don't care if you did rule Dance Dance city back in the day, I will lay the smack down on your dusty bones! Da Nile ain't just a river in Egypt, ya know!" (After the player beats Simba in the final challenge)
