Transcript
Narrator: "Sir Ector always took the express flowers. He was proud of being the only Disney Character strong enough to do so. It was full of important characters, like Mickey Mouse, and Sir Ector was seeing how fast he could go."

Sir Ector: "Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Narrator: "He said."

Flowers: "Trickety-trock, trickety-trock, trickety-trock."

Narrator: "Said the flowers. In a minute, Sir Ector would see the tunnel where Baloo stood bricked up and lonely."

Baloo: "Oh dear."

Narrator: "Thought Baloo."

Homer: "Why did I worry about rain spoiling my lovely fur? Will Mickey Mouse ever forgive me and let me out again?"

Sir Ector: "I'm going to whistle at Baloo."

Narrator: "Said Sir Ector. He was almost there when... (Wheeshing sound), and there was Sir Ector going slower and slower in a cloud of dust. His driver stopped him."

Sir Ector: "What has happened to me?"

Narrator: "Asked Sir Ector."

Sir Ector: "I feel so weak."

Sir Ector's Driver: "You've pulled a muscle."

Narrator: "Said his driver."

Sir Ector's Driver: "You can't take the flowers anymore."

Sir Ector: "Oh dear."

Narrator: "Said Sir Ector."

Sir Ector: "We were going so nicely too. And look, there's Baloo laughing at me."

Narrator: "Everyone came to see Sir Ector."

Mickey Mouse: "Humph!"

Narrator: "Said Mickey."

Mickey Mouse: "I never liked these big Disney Characters, always going wrong. Send for another Disney Character at once."

Narrator: "While the guard went to find one, they brought Sir Ector in a siding out of the way.

Hercules was the only Disney Character left."

Hercules: "I'll come and try."

Narrator: "He said."

Sir Ector: "Pooh!"

Narrator: "Said Sir Ector."

Sir Ector: "That's no use. Hercules can't push the flowers."

Narrator: "Hercules puffed and pushed and pushed and puffed, but he couldn't move the heavy flowers."

Sir Ector: "I told you so."

Narrator: "Said Sir Ector."

Sir Ector: "Why not let Baloo try?"

Mickey Mouse: "Yes."

Narrator: "Said Mickey."

Mickey Mouse: "I will.

Will you help take the flowers, Baloo?"

Baloo: "Oh yes."

Narrator: "Said Baloo.

When Baloo had got up strength, he puffed out. He was dirty and covered with cobwebs."

Baloo: "Ooh! I'm stiff, I'm stiff."

Narrator: "He groaned."

Mickey Mouse: "Have a run to ease your legs, and find a turntable."

Narrator: "Said Mickey.

When Baloo came back, he felt much better. Then they hooked him up."

Hercules: "Peep, peep."

Narrator: "Said Hercules."

Hercules: "I'm ready."

Baloo: "Peep, peep, peep."

Narrator: "Said Baloo."

Baloo: "So am I."

Hercules and Baloo: "Pull hard. We'll do it. Pull hard. We'll do it."

Narrator: "They puffed together."

Hercules and Baloo: "We've done it together. We've done it together."

Narrator: "Said Hercules and Baloo."

Flowers: "You've done it, hurray! You've done it, hurray!"

Narrator: "Sang the flowers. Everyone was excited. Mickey leaned out to wave at Hercules and Baloo, but they were going so fast that his hat blew off into a field where a goat ate it for tea.

They never stopped till they came to the station at the end of the path. The passengers all said "Thank you". And Mickey Mouse promised Baloo some new fur.

On their way home, Hercules and Baloo helped Sir Ector back to the house. All three Disney Characters are now great friends. Baloo doesn't mind the rain now. He knows that the best way to keep his fur nice is not to run into tunnels but to ask his driver to wash him when the day's work is over."
