Okay Mr. Penguin. I'm gonna take you to the zoo where you'll meet some nice people, they'll treat you real respectable like.

What it means
Our interpretation.
Billy addresses the penguin as a person and describes the zoo through the respectful treatment he expects it to receive. The promise makes the move sound like an introduction to new people. Its unusual feature is that social reassurance is being directed toward an animal.
