plot explanation - What does the Theodore doll say in Alvin and the Chipmunks?

Near the end of the 2007 Alvin and the Chipmunks movie, the Theodore doll speaks Spanish (I think), and I still haven't been able to figure out what he says after watching the movie 30 times. I've worked out that Alvin's doll says "Hello, my name is Alvin, I want a hula-hoop" and Simon's says "My name is Simon". Do any Spanish speaking people know what Theodore says?


Answer


Theodore speaks Japanese. He should say something like that:



Konbanwa Watashi Wa Theodore desu



that means "Good evening my name is Theodore". It's not pronounced very clearly, and most subtitles wrote Alvin desu, but listening to the voice it seems most likely to be Theodore. Maybe it's a Japanese name translation.
