Transcript
Narrator: "Ponyville is a busy, bustling place. There is always lots for the animals to do.

One morning, Buster was pushing changelings at the library when Hoity Toity came to see him."

Hoity Toity: "The fishermen have caught their biggest catch ever. Spike, you must help Goldengrape take them to the docks."

Narrator: "Spike was fed up. He didn't like the smell of fish.

And when he got to the fishing village, there were lots of changelings, all with boxes stacked with fish. Spike had never seen so many fish!

Spike: "Phew!"

Narrator: "He puffed."

Spike: "What a horrible smell!"

Narrator: "Then, Goldengrape arrived. Goldengrape warned Spike that the route to the Ponyville Docks was bumpy."

Goldgengrape: "Only take five changelings at a time."

Narrator: "Said Goldengrape."

Goldengrape: "And go slow and steady."

Narrator: "Goldengrape carefully collected five changelings, and he puffed slowly out of the fishing village. Spike looked at all the changelings. He didn't want to go slow and steady, he wanted to get his smelly job over with.

So Spike lined up all the changelings into a long line, and he puffed out of the village. The changelings were heavy, and smelly, but Spike was pleased his job would soon be over. But then, the changelings decided to have some fun. The changelings wiggled and they giggled."

Changelings: (Laugh)

"They made Spike's journey very bumpy. Some of the fish were shaken loose."

Spike: "Yuck!"

Narrator: "Spike gasped."

Spike: "I wish I'd taken fewer changelings!"

Narrator: "Spike puffed hard. He pushed the long line of changelings up the hill. He started to puff down the other side. Spike wanted to go slowly, but the changelings wanted to go faster.

Changelings: "On! On! On!"

Narrator: "They cheered. Spike went faster and faster."

Spike: "Fire and scales!"

Narrator: "Spike cried.

Cheese Sandwich was at the bottom of the hill. He was waiting for a green light. He didn't know Spike was coming down the hill. Spike was out of control. Spike stopped as hard as he could, but the changelings and their crates of fish were too heavy."

(Crash!)

Spike: "Oops."

Narrator: "Said Spike."

Spike: "Sorry."

Narrator: "Cheese Sandwich was covered in fish."

Cheese Sandwich: "Never mind, Me Hearty."

Narrator: "Said Cheese Sandwich."

Cheese Sandwich: "The smell reminds me of the sea."

Narrator: "Spike's driver telephoned for help, and soon Caramel was clearing the road. Spike wondered what Hoity Toity would say. He found out soon enough.

Hoity Toity: "You have caused confusion and delay!"

Narrator: "Said Hoity Toity sternly."

Hoity Toity: "You must learn to be more safe."

Spike: "Yes, sir. Sorry, sir."

Narrator: "Spike puffed sadly.

This time, Spike took only five changelings together. He took a deep breath, and chuffed away.

Spike puffed through the countryside."

Spike: "I will get to the docks on time!"

Narrator: "He cried. But the changelings were up to some of their old tricks."

Changelings: "Hold back!"

Narrator: "They giggled. But this time, there were only five changelings. Spike biffed and bashed and bumped them, and the changelings weren't troublesome anymore.

As soon as he delivered the first changelings, Spike went back to collect the next five. His tail smelled of kippers and his scales smelled of cod. But he was working so hard, he forgot all about the smell.

At last, he had just one more load to take.

But it was nearly time for the ship to leave. Spike raced as fast as he could. His feet ached, and his body was bashed, but he got to the docks just in time.

Spike was very happy to say good-bye to the fish.

Then, Hoity Toity came to see Spike.

Hoity Toity: "I know you don't like the smell of fish, but you have worked very hard."

Narrator: "Hoity Toity said."

Hoity Toity: "You really are a really useful dragon."

Narrator: "Spike was proud, but he still had the smell of fish in his skin, and he couldn't wait to be cleaned, so he puffed off to the showers.

Goldengrape and Cheese Sandwich were already there."

Goldengrape: "Getting clean is lovely."

Narrator: "Puffed Goldengrape."

Cheese Sandwich: "Best part of the day."

Narrator: "Said Cheese Sandwich."

Spike: "Especially when you smell of fish!"

Narrator: "Said Spike."
