Transcript
Narrator: "It was a beautiful night in Ponyville. The day's work was done and the animals puffed safely home."

Pipsqueak: "Spike,"

Narrator: "Whispered Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "Will you tell us the end of the story?"

Spike: "You mean the one about Big Mac the Lost Tug?"

Big Macintosh: "Exactly."

Narrator: "Said Big Macintosh."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "But please remind us of the story so far."

Narrator: "So Spike began and here is the rest of the story he told."

Spike: "Big Mac was old and live with two young tugs called Sunshine and Ten Cents. They teased Big Mac and called him 'Grantug', but they were happy together.

Then, their river was closed down and the young tugs went away. Big Mac was left alone in the shed. He went to sleep and everything around him changed. But Big Mac was never forgotten.

Years went by until one day not long ago, visitors came to see Hoity Toity."

Visitors: "We want to find Big Mac."

Spike: "They said."

Visitors: "And make him happy again."

Spike: "Maps layed everywhere."

Visitors: "If we followed the old river shown here on the map."

Spike: "They said."

Visitors: "We'll travel north of the harbor and then into the valleys. And look. There's the sign for the old dock. If Big Mac's anywhere, he's there."

Spike: "Everyone set off to the valleys far away.

The days went by, the search grew harder, but the rescuers wouldn't give up."

Visitors: "Let's go this way."

Spike: "They said.

But there was still no sign of Big Mac."

Visitors: "He's here somewhere."

Spike: "They said. They scrambled over hills, struggled over ditches.

At last their search ended, quite by accident."

(Crash!)

Visitors: "We found him! We found our sleeping beauty."

Big Mac: "Excuse me?"

Spike: "Enquired Big Mac."

Big Mac: "Are you a vandal? Driver told me vandals break and smash things."

Visitors: "Bless you, no."

Spike: "Laughed the rescuers."

Visitors: "We dropped in because we couldn't find your door. Ten Cents and Sunshine will be pleased to see you."

Big Mac: "So they did remember."

Spike: "Sighed Big Mac happily.

Then they all set off for Big Mac's new home.

Sunshine and Ten Cents are ready for a big welcome."

Ten Cents and Sunshine: "He's here."

Spike: "They whispered."

Ten Cents and Sunshine: "Sh! Sh!"

Big Mac: "You woke me up."

Spike: "Grumbled Big Mac."

Big Mac: "In my young days, tugs were..."

Sunshine: "Seen and not heard, Grantug, we know."

Ten Cents: "We're all be back at work tomorrow. We're glad you've come back. We can keep you in order now."

Big Mac: "Keep me in order? Be off with you! Impertinent scallywags!"

Spike: "But Big Mac's old eyes twinkled, and for the first time in years, he smiled as he dozed in the sun.

And that..."

Narrator: "Said Spike."

Spike: "...is the whole story. Did you like it?"

Other Animals: "Yes indeed."

Narrator: "Agreed the animals."

Other Animals: "Especially the happy ending."

Narrator: "And soon, they were all asleep too."
