I'm sorry, Wazowski, but Randall said I'm not allowed to fraternize with victims of his evil plot.

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker apologises while citing a rule against being friendly with the victims of an evil plot. Naming that plot so openly makes the explanation absurd. The comedy joins ordinary obedience and politeness with an admission that would normally call the arrangement itself into question.
