Transcript
Narrator: "Early one morning, Donkey Kong was feeling tired."

Fire Lighter: "I don't know what's wrong."

Narrator: "Sighed the fire lighter."

Donkey Kong's Driver: "There must be gremlins about."

Piglet: "What are gremlins?"

Narrator: "Asked Piglet."

Mario: "I've heard they're little green men who play tricks."

Narrator: "Replied Mario."

Piglet: "Can we find one?"

Narrator: "Asked Piglet."

Rabbit: "Pah!"

Narrator: "Said Rabbit."

Rabbit: "Gremlins don't exist, they're just an excuse for when things go wrong, and no one knows why."

Mario: "If fire lighter says there are gremlins, there are!"

Narrator: "Insisted Mario."

Rabbit: "Ha!"

Narrator: "Snorted Rabbit.

Mr. Garrison had heard everything."

Mr. Garrison: "Silence!"

Narrator: "He said."

Mr. Garrison: "I am expecting a V.I.P., a very important person today. She has heard that that all my TV Characters are really useful. Please prove it."

Mario, Piglet and Rabbit: "Yes, sir!"

Narrator: "They said."

Piglet: "As long as the Gremlins let us."

Narrator: "Added Piglet."

Mr. Garrison: "What Gremlins?"

Piglet: "The one's in Donkey Kong's head, sir. That's why he's not ready yet."

Mr. Garrison: "We'll see about that."

Narrator: "Thundered Mr. Garrison, and he did."

Mr. Garrison: "Donkey Kong, I expect you to be on your best behavior today. You are to take a very special wolf for my special visitor. But no high speeds, please; she won't like that."

Narrator: "Donkey Kong was proud and pleased.

He was waiting for his special wolf when Piglet puffed in with some coal."

Piglet: "What's the matter, Donkey Kong? You're late."

Donkey Kong: "Driver says there's gremlins in the turntable."

Narrator: "Replied Donkey Kong."

Piglet: "They must be everywhere!"

Narrator: "Squeaked Piglet.

At last, the turntable was mended, and Donkey Kong puffed away with the special wolf.

He was soon working hard to make up for lost time.

After he arrived at the station, Mr. Garrison became concerned."

Mr. Garrison: "Where's Mario?"

Narrator: "He wondered."

Mr. Garrison: "He's supposed to be bringing my visitor from the harbor."

Donkey Kong: "Ha!"

Narrator: "Huffed Donkey Kong."

Donkey Kong: "Mario isn't really useful if he's late."

Narrator: "But it wasn't long before Mario arrived."

Mario: "I'm sorry, a cow strayed on the line and we had to wait for the farmer to take her away, but Driver says your visitor is here safe and sound."

Mr. Garrison: "Indeed she is."

Narrator: "Smiled Mr. Garrison."

Mr. Garrison: "How nice to see you."

Piglet: "Who is it?"

Narrator: "Whispered Piglet."

Mario: "I don't know,"

Narrator: "Replied Mario."

Mario: "But Mr. Garrison is certainly keen to please her. He's arranged a special party for her."

Piglet: "She's got a dog."

Narrator: "Said Piglet."

(Max barks)

Mario's Driver: "Come on, Mario."

Narrator: "Said his driver."

Mario's Driver: "You need a drink."

Donkey Kong: "Pah!"

Narrator: "Puffed Donkey Kong."

Donkey Kong: "Mario is just a lazy little plumber. Mr. Garrison is expecting me to arrive on time. We're late because of Mario."

Narrator: "Donkey Kong's driver decided to make up for lost time.

Then there was trouble."

Donkey Kong's Driver: "I think we'd better slow down, this is an old path and could make things very uncomfortable for the V.I.P."

Narrator: "And it did. She was taking a bath, and the water was slopping about all over the place."

Nanny: "Ohhhh!"

Narrator: "She cried.

Donkey Kong was very relieved to reach his final destination, where Mario was waiting to collect Mr. Garrison and his special visitor.

He blew an extra-long whistle. This frightened the visitor's dog so much, that he fled from the station and ran into a field where a bull was grazing.

The bull frightened the little dog even more. He ran back again, onto the platform, and over the bridge.

He didn't stop until he jumped straight onto Mario."

Narrator: "But he had a wonderful ride, all the way to the harbor."

Mario's Driver: "What's the dog's name?"

Narrator: "Asked the driver."

Nanny: "Well, after today's events, I think i'll rename him 'Max'."

Narrator: "Mr. Garrison chuckled."

Mr. Garrison: "In that case, I've met a gremlin at last. Ho ho ho!"

Mario: "Excuse me, Sir, but who is your very important visitor?"

Mr. Garrison: "Why, didn't I tell you? This lady is my mother, and she agrees with me, you are indeed, really useful TV Characters, and my mother, of course, is always right."
