You Can't Win
Narrator: "Doc is the hero of all the TV Characters. This is a story about him.

It happened long ago when Happy and Grumpy used to work with Doc on his old land. Many people came year after year to see the mountains and the lakes and most of all, Doc.

He always took his flowers, even on days when he didn't feel well."

Doc: "I mustn't disappoint my friends."

Narrator: "He would say.

Every morning he took his passengers up the road and stopped anywhere they wanted."

Doc: "Peep, peep!"

Narrator: "He whistled."

Doc: "Please be ready when I come back to you. Otherwise we might miss your boat to the mainland and that would never do."

Narrator: "One day, Doc didn't feel well. He was short of strength and glad of a rest. His driver and fireman had just finished clearing his body when Happy bustled up."

Happy: "Hello, Grandwarf."

Narrator: "He teased."

Happy: "Are you short of strength."

Doc: "Nothing of the sort. This is routine maintenance."

Happy: "Tell you what."

Narrator: "Went on Happy."

Happy: "You getting old. We must take care of you in case you get hurt."

Doc: "Hmmph!"

Narrator: "Hooshed Doc."

Doc: "That'll be the day!"

Narrator: "Doc couldn't stay cross for long. It was a lovely evening."

Doc: "Couldn't be better. Couldn't be better."

Narrator: "He guntered happily.

They began to climb, but Doc didn't mind."

Doc: "I've plenty of strength."

Narrator: "He puffed."

Doc: "We'll be up in a couple of puffs."

Narrator: "But soon, Doc's puffs changed to wheezes. His body was leaking strength."

Doc: "It's not so easy. It's not so easy."

Narrator: "He croaked."

Doc: "But I'll manage."

Narrator: "At last, they reached the station.

Doc's driver examined him carefully. Anxious passengers waited for new."

Guard: "Doc is going to take you to the harbor, but he might be late."

Narrator: "Said the guard."

Guard: "So two dwarfs are coming to help. You'll still catch your boat."

Narrator: "Grumpy went up in front."

Grumpy: "Poor old Grandwarf. What a shame you've gotten hurt."

Happy: "Peep, peep, peep!"

Narrator: "Teased Happy."

Happy: "This is the day."

Narrator: "He was coupled up behind."

Grumpy: "Are you ready?"

Narrator: "Whistled Grumpy."

Happy: "Yes, I am."

Narrator: "Replied Happy, and away they went.

When they reached the next station, the cavalcade split up.

Grumpy took Doc's passengers to the boat.

Happy headed Grumpy's line, with Doc coupled behind."

Happy: "Fancy me rescuing Grandwarf! This is the day! This is the day!"

Narrator: "He boasted."

Happy: "Poor old dwarf! Poor old dwarf!"

Narrator: "But Doc still had plenty of strength left in him. His body sounded worse then it was. He and his driver had their own little joke ready.

They waited until they reached the hill."

Doc's Driver: "Now!"

Narrator: "Said his driver. Doc puffed and roared as though he was pushing the whole line's weight before him. The noise echoed everywhere.

When they reached the last station, everyone cheered."

Boy: "What happened?"

Narrator: "Asked a boy."

Boy: "They don't usually need two characters."

Father: "Well,"

Narrator: "Replied his father."

Father: "Happy hurt himself. Doc had to help him. It sounds as if he had a hard job too."

Narrator: "Doc and his driver's joke had worked."

Happy: "Fiddlesticks!"

Narrator: "Exclaimed Happy, and he vanished in a cloud of steam. Doc wheezed alongside."

Doc: "Poor old dwarf!"

Narrator: "He teased."

Doc: "It's no good, Happy. You can't win!"

Grouch
Narrator: "Grumpy is very proud of his big feet. They hold him well to the ground, but they are unusual.

One day, the other dwarfs wouldn't stop teasing him."

Bashful, Sneezy, Happy, Dopey and Doc: "Look at his grouch feet!"

Narrator: "They joked."

Grumpy: "Be quiet!"

Narrator: "Snorted Grumpy."

Grumpy: "You're jealous!"

Happy: "Don't worry."

Narrator: "Soothed Happy."

Happy: "The dwarfs all teased me about my special hat, until they learned how useful it is."

Grumpy: "Did you hear that?"

Narrator: "Huffed Grumpy."

Grumpy: "My feet are special, like Happy's hat! I can go faster than any of you."

Narrator: "Bashful had a plan to make Grumpy see sense."

Bashful: "With your grand feet, Grumpy,"

Narrator: "Said Bashful,"

Bashful: "You're just the dwarf to tackle Oscar."

Grumpy: "Who's Oscar?"

Bashful: "That grouch over there."

Narrator: "Replied Bashful."

Bashful: "Listen."

Narrator: "The grouch was making rude remarks about the dwarfs."

Oscar: "Roads are no good, turn them into garbage, pull em' up, turn them into garbage! Roads are no good, tun them into garbage, pull em' up, turn them into garbage!"

Grumpy: "Don't worry."

Narrator: "Said Grumpy."

Grumpy: "Leave him to me. I'll send him packing.

Oscar will soon get a run for his money."

Narrator: "Later that morning, Oscar was at the crossing."

Oscar: "Huh."

Narrator: "He said."

Oscar: "You're Grumpy, I suppose."

Narrator: "Grumpy was standing no nonsense."

Grumpy: "And you, I suppose, are Oscar? Yes, I've heard of you."

Oscar: "And I've heard of you. You swank around with your grouch feet, pretending you're as good as me."

Grumpy: "Actually,"

Narrator: "Retorted Grumpy."

Grumpy: "I'm better. Good-bye."

Narrator: "Oscar chuffered on, fuming.

Later that day, Grumpy brought a special load down after the last dwarf had gone.

When he had reached the road, he saw Oscar trundling home. Grumpy tried to attract his attention."

Grumpy: "Peep peep peep!"

Narrator: "Oscar took no notice. There was barely room to pass."

Grumpy was cross."

Grumpy: "Get out of my way, you great clumsy garbage hog!"

Oscar: "Ha! I don't move for imitation grouches."

Narrator: "Huffed Oscar. They rumbled along as the insults continued.

Then there was trouble."

(CRASH!)

Grumpy: "Aaah!"

Narrator: "Cried Grumpy."

Grumpy: "That was your fault."

Oscar: "No it wasn't. It was yours."

Narrator: "Everyone was arguing over who was to blame."

Joe Swanson: "Hello, hello, hello."

Narrator: "Said Joe Swanson, ominously."

Joe Swanson: "And what's going on here?"

Narrator: "This made everyone stop arguing. They set to work clearing up the mess instead.

Next day, they put up a fence between the roads.

Then, they went away, taking Oscar with them.

Grumpy thought he had made Oscar go away.

He talked of nothing but grouches."

Bashful: "Oh, dear."

Narrator: "Whispered Bashful."

Bashful: "He's worse than ever. I'm sorry my plan was no good."

Sleepy: "Never mind."

Narrator: "Said Sleepy."

Sleepy: "We'll think of something else."

Narrator: "But they had no need to do that.

Some boys arrived instead. They pointed to Grumpy and cried,"

Boys: "Look, here's Grumpy. He tried to race a grouch, but the grouch nearly beat him!"

Narrator: "Grumpy never mentions grouches now."

Passengers and Polish
Narrator: "Becky is a guard's daughter.

One day, she was working on Bashful with some polish and a rag. Bashful was snoozing happily, but Becky wanted to talk."

Becky: "Wake up, lazybones! Your shoes are filthy. Aren't you ashamed?"

Bashful: "No."

Narrator: "Yawned Bashful."

Bashful: "You're just an old fusspot."

Narrator: "And then Bashful closed his eyes. He was thinking of his friend, Sneezy, and the all the good times they shared together before Sneezy went away to be mended.

Becky interrupted again."

Becky: "Don't you want to look nice for when Sneezy comes home?"

Narrator: "Bashful wasn't sleepy anymore."

Bashful: "What? When?!"

Becky: "Soon. Daddy told me. I'm going now."

Narrator: "She said."

Bashful: "Becky, stop. Do I really look nice? Please polish me again."

Becky: "Now who's an old fusspot?"

Narrator: "Laughed Becky, and set to work once more.

Dopey was jealous."

Dopey: "Aren't you gonna polish me too?"

Becky: "Sorry. Not today. I'm going now. I'm helping Didi Pickles this afternoon. We must get the ices ready for the passengers. Never mind, Dopey."

Narrator: "She said. But Dopey did mind."

Dopey: "It isn't fair!"

Narrator: "He complained."

Dopey: "Happy gets a special hat, Grumpy gets special feet, passengers get ices, but I'm not even polished!"

Narrator: "Of course, this wasn't true. But Dopey enjoyed complaining. He became sulkier still.

That afternoon, there was bad news from up the path."

Dopey's Driver: "One of Bashful's flowers has come off the road."

Narrator: "Called Dopey's driver."

Dopey's Driver: "We'll have to take the workmen there right away."

Dopey: "All this extra work!"

Narrator: "Grumbled Dopey."

Dopey: "It wears a dwarf out!"

Dopey's Driver: "Rubbish! Come on!"

Narrator: "The hurt flower was in the middle of Bashful's line. So he had gone on to the top station with his front flowers.

Dopey left the workmen to sort out the mess, then he brought the passengers with the rear flowers home.

He sulked all the way."

Dopey: "I get no rest, I get no rest!"

Narrator: "He muttered.

Dopey made the journey very difficult. He was short of strength, so his driver waited a while and hope of raising more. But Dopey wouldn't try."

Dopey's Driver: "We'll keep our passengers waiting."

Narrator: "Said his driver. Dopey was cross."

Dopey: "You always think about the passengers and never about me!"

Narrator: "It wasn't long before Dopey finally build up enough strength and set off again.

But he was still very grumpy and cross."

Dopey: "I'm overworked, and I won't stand it!"

Narrator: "At last, they reached the viaduct near the station."

Dopey's Driver: "Come on, Dopey!"

Narrator: "Called his driver."

Dopey's Driver: "One more effort, and you'll have a rest and a drink at the station."

Narrator: "Then, Dopey was very rude."

Dopey: "Keep your own station! I'm staying here!"

Narrator: "And he did too.

Bashful had to pull Dopey and his flowers all the way to the platform.

The passengers were furious. They told everyone what a bad town it was.

That night, Mayor Adam West spoke to Dopey."

Mayor Adam West: "No passengers means no polish!"

Dopey: "And no polish means no passengers."

Narrator: "Dopey muttered to himself.

He still has a lot to learn, doesn't he?"

Sleepy to the Rescue
Narrator: "In Springtime, Sleepy loves to visit a faraway place. It's full of bird nests. The air smells sweet and Sleepy thinks there's no better place to be.

One day, RS Mr. Conductor was passing by just as Sleepy was having a drink."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Good morning."

Narrator: "Whistled RS Mr. Conductor."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Your driver looks as little worried. I wonder why."

Sleepy: "I don't know."

Narrator: "Said Sleepy."

Sleepy: "But I soon will.

Excuse me,"

Narrator: "Said Sleepy."

Sleepy: "But is there something wrong?"

Sleepy's Driver: "Yes indeed."

Narrator: "Replied the driver."

Sleepy's Driver: "They need another TV Character to help run this special line."

Sleepy: "A bird."

Narrator: "Laughed Sleepy."

Sleepy: "Maybe I can find one."

Narrator: "Later, Sleepy saw Luigi and Bart. Sleepy had an idea."

Sleepy: "Can you help me find another TV Character?"

Luigi: "Where?"

Sleepy: "Where you found GC Mr. Conductor."

Luigi: "You mean on the other land?"

Sleepy: "Yes. I'm looking for a bird."

Narrator: "Said Sleepy, and explained everything."

Luigi: "I'd like to help, but these days it's only villains that go there."

Narrator: "Then Sleepy decided."

Sleepy: "So that's where I'll go."

Luigi: "Take care."

Narrator: "Warned Luigi.

Sleepy told the driver all about the plan. And that night, he came back to the dock."

Sleepy's Driver: "The manager says he'll make a home for a bird if you find one."

Sleepy: "Right."

Narrator: "Said Sleepy."

Sleepy: "We'll find one tomorrow."

Narrator: "It took them all of the next day to travel to the other land.

Darkness fell and the cold wind blew."

Sleepy: "Oh, what's that?"

Narrator: "Murmured Sleepy. But it was only the sounds of the lonely scrapyard. Villains silent and still lined up on guard."

Villains: "Who are you?"

Narrator: "Sleepy plucked up courage."

Sleepy: "I'm a sheds and sidings inspection dwarf. Have you any TV Characters in the sheds?"

Villains: "No. None."

Narrator: "Sleepy rallied again."

Sleepy: "Then what the sidings?"

Villains: "One. We have one."

Narrator: "Sleepy grew braver still."

Sleepy: "Then I'll just go an inspect."

Narrator: "A bird with yellow feathers stood sad and alone in the shadowy sidings. His driver was next to him keeping him company."

Sleepy: "Excuse me?"

Narrator: "Said Sleepy."

Sleepy: "Do you like bird nests?"

Narrator: "The bird looked startled."

Big Bird: "Yes. Bird nests are beautiful."

Sleepy: "Then you're soon going to see lots of them because I'm getting you out of here."

Narrator: "Everyone worked fast. It was difficult to get his body warmed up, but soon it was warm and Big Bird had plenty of energy. Sleepy's engineer agreed to be Big Bird's fireman.

So fall they set, past the bleak and booming lines villains."

Villains: "Where is he going?"

Narrator: "They hissed."

Sleepy: "Just down the path."

Narrator: "Replied Sleepy. And the chuffered quickly away."

Sleepy: "We've done it! We're over the border and back on our own land. Mission accomplished."

Narrator: "When Sleepy and the bird arrived back in the valley, a big welcome awaited them."

Manager: "We shall mend you and give you new feathers."

Narrator: "Said the manager. His driver was delighted."

Big Bird's Driver: "You lucky old bird. You've been saved by the Bird Park."

Big Bird: "And my friend, Sleepy. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for Sleepy."

Narrator: "Now the bird is as happy as can be and helps the passengers and visit at bird time. His name is Big Bird, but everyone calls him the Bird Character."

RS Mr. Conductor and Big Bird
Narrator: "RS Mr. Conductor was feeling very happy. His blue conductor outfit shone in the sun, he was right on time, and all around his route the countryside seemed prettier than ever before."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Peep, peep! Good morning, Bart."

Narrator: "He whistled."

RS Mr. Conductor: "My route is the pride of TV Land. Wouldn't you agree?"

Bart: "Uh, yes RS Mr. Conductor, of course, But uh,"

RS Mr. Conductor: "But what Bart? Out with it!"

Bart: "Well, there is another TV Character with a famous route too?"

RS Mr. Conductor: "Who? Where?"

Narrator: "Exclaimed RS Mr. Conductor anxiously."

Bart: "His name is Big Bird. He's faraway, but Mayor Adam West says he might visit us."

RS Mr. Conductor: "When?"

Bart: "Oh, someday."

Narrator: "And Bart hurried away.

Meanwhile Big Bird was walking steadily along his route. It runs through fields and forests, but isn't very long, which made him feel a little sad. Later he saw Sleepy, the dwarf who had helped saved Big Bird from death."

Big Bird: "Everyone's been so kind. But my route is so short and I do miss a good long rung."

Sleepy: "I think you should tell driver too."

Narrator: "Replied Sleepy."

Sleepy: "I'm sure he'll understand."

Narrator: "Big Bird soon discovered that indeed he did."

Big Bird's Driver: "Do you know, Big Bird? I feel just the same way."

Narrator: "That evening, Big Bird's driver had exciting news."

Big Bird's Driver: "Just what Big Bird? Mayor West has invited us to visit the other TV Characters on his land. Manager agreed. But it'll be a really long run to get there."

Big Bird: "Oh, thank you."

Narrator: "Sighed Big Bird. They set off next morning.

By now, all the other TV Characters were talking about Big Bird."

Bart: "He runs a famous route. Did you know that?"

Narrator: "Said Bart. RS Mr. Conductor was feeling a little jealous."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Huh! It may be famous, but my route is the first on the path. Everyone knows that too."

Narrator: "And he huffed away to fetch his sisters-in-law."

Bart: "Look!"

Narrator: "Squeaked Bart."

Bart: "Why have they all come? There is no TV Character yet."

Narrator: "But Bart was wrong. The signal dropped, and from faraway a bird whistled."

Luigi: "Here he comes."

Narrator: "Yelled Luigi.

Big Bird walked proudly through the junction. All the TV Characters were pleased to see him."

Edd: "I hope you meet RS Mr. Conductor too."

Narrator: "Said Edd."

Edd: "You both have routes to be proud of."

Narrator: "Then Big Bird set off to help Spike arrange flowers in the yard, and they worked happily together all afternoon.

At last, RS Mr. Conductor arrived."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Sorry, can't talk. It's time for my last delivery. Mustn't be late."

Narrator: "He was hardly out of sight when the TV Characters heard shouting at the station. Moments later came the alarm."

Oliver Frensky: "Stop all TV Characters!"

Narrator: "The signalman answered the telephone."

Signalman: "A special is it? I see."

Narrator: "RS Mr. Conductor was impatient."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Why are we waiting? My passengers are being delayed."

RS Mr. Conductor's Driver: "Sorry, RS Mr. Conductor."

Narrator: "Said his driver."

RS Mr. Conductor's Driver: "We're being shunted to allow another TV Character to pass."

Narrator: "Soon they heard an unfamiliar sound. There was Big Bird with his headlamp swinging and whistle blowing. He gathered speed and disappeared."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Well bust my whistle!"

Narrator: "Said RS Mr. Conductor.

Next morning, RS Mr. Conductor was still fuming."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Shunted! And on my own route too! It's a disgrace!"

Big Bird: "I'm sorry."

Narrator: "Said Big Bird."

Noteworthy: "I was a special."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Why?"

Big Bird: "An important passenger named Oliver Frensky arrived just as you left. He ordered a special ride and Spike let me take it.

We had a splendid run, but,"

RS Mr. Conductor: "But,"

Narrator: "Finished RS Mr. Conductor kindly."

RS Mr. Conductor: "It can make a TV Character nervous not to know the route."

Big Bird: "Exactly!"

Narrator: "Said Big Bird."

Big Bird: "You're such an expert."

Narrator: "This made RS Mr. Conductor felt much better. He couldn't be cross anymore, and instead began telling Big Bird all about his route."

Paint Pots and Princesses
Narrator: "Garfield the Cat and RS Mr. Conductor the Conductor walked hand to hand back home. It had been a busy day.

First, RS Mr. Conductor had teased Garfield about the time the fat cat had slid into a ditch.

Then, RS Mr. Conductor fell down a mine. And Garfield came to his rescue."

Garfield: "Remember RS Mr. Conductor,"

Narrator: "Called Garfield grandly."

Garfield: "United we stand, together we fall. You help me, and I'll help you."

RS Mr. Conductor: "I'll remember."

Narrator: "Replied RS Mr. Conductor."

RS Mr. Conductor: "But I hope Mayor Adam West forgives us soon."

Narrator: "Suddenly, they noticed something. As the two TV Characters whistled into the sheds, everywhere they look, they saw paint pots and painters."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Bust my hands!"

Narrator: "Said RS Mr. Conductor."

RS Mr. Conductor: "What's happening?"

Bart: "Shhh."

Narrator: "Whispered Bart."

Bart: "Mayor West is going to tell us now."

Mayor Adam West: "Ladies, gentlemen and TV Characters, I am honor to inform you that her majesty, Princess Celestia herself is coming here to visit us. Now, on with the preparations."

Narrator: "The TV Characters wondered who would take the royal flowers."

Edd: "I'm too old to take important flowers."

Narrator: "Said Edd sadly."

Garfield: "I'm in disgrace."

Narrator: "Sighed Garfield glumly."

Schemer: "He'll choose me, of course."

Narrator: "Boasted Schemer."

Homer: "You?"

Narrator: "Snorted Homer."

Homer: "You can't climb hills! He'll ask me to take the flowers, and I'll have some new clothes."

Narrator: "Then, the rain came.

Homer's driver and fireman covered up to keep dry. Drew Pickles was on the ladder above the path. Homer's dust blew high into the air. Drew couldn't see. Both he and the paint pot fell all over Homer.

Poor Homer."

Drew Pickles: "Well, you're not a pretty picture!"

Narrator: "Sneered Drew.

Mayor West spoke next."

Mayor Adam West: "You look like an iced cake, Homer. That won't do for the royal flowers. I must make other arrangements."

Narrator: "Garfield and RS Mr. Conductor were waiting for him."

Garfield and RS Mr. Conductor: "Please, sir."

Mayor Adam West: "One at a time."

Narrator: "Replied Mayor West."

Mayor Adam West: "Yes, Garfield?"

Garfield: "May RS Mr. Conductor have his route again?"

Mayor Adam West: "Hmmm.

I think you are both sorry and deserve a treat. Edd will go in front to clear the path, RS Mr. Conductor will look after the flowers and Garfield will take the flowers."

Narrator: "The great day came. All the TV Characters worked hard bringing people to the town.

RS Mr. Conductor sorted out their flowers in the yard.

Edd walked in."

Edd: "Peep! Princess Celestia is here!"

Narrator: "Then, Garfield whistled as he approached the station. Everyone knew that sound.

Princess Celestia's flowers glided into the station. Garfield was spotless, and his tail shown brightly.

Mayor West stood to attention."

Mayor Adam West: "Welcome ma'am."

Narrator: "Princess Celestia thanked him for a splendid run, and asked to see all the TV Characters."

Grandpa Dave and Bart: "Peep, peep!"

Narrator: "Whistled Grandpa Dave and Bart."

Homer and Schemer: "Shhh!"

Narrator: "Hissed Homer and Schemer. But Grandpa Dave and Bart didn't care."

Grandpa Dave and Bart: "Three cheers for Princess Celestia!"

All the TV Characters: "Peep, peep!"

Narrator: "Whistled the TV Characters.

When it was time to leave, Princess Celestia spoke specially to RS Mr. Conductor, who fetched her flowers, then to Edd, and finally to Garfield, who took her away.

No TV Characters ever felt prouder than those on Mayor Adam West's land."

Toad Stands By
Narrator: "GC Mr. Conductor had been to the hospital to be healed.

Some goombas tricked him, and the little conductor fell into the turntable well.

Now, GC Mr. Conductor was as good as new, but he was still worried about goombas."

GC Mr. Conductor: "I'd rather not use them."

Narrator: "He said to himself.

But the goombas sang songs rude and loud.

Feathers McGraw, their leader, led the chorus."

Feathers McGraw and Goombas: "GC Conductor's no use at all, thinks he's very clever, says that he can manage us, that's the best joke ever! When he orders us about, with the greatest folly, we just push him down the well, Pop goes old Conductor!"

Narrator: "RS Mr. Conductor, Spike and Bart were shocked."

RS Mr. Conductor, Spike and Bart: "Be quiet!"

Narrator: "They ordered.

But they couldn't be everywhere, and everywhere they weren't, the goombas began again."

Goombas: "GC Conductor's no use at all, thinks he's very clever, says that he can manage us, that's the best joke ever!"

Narrator: "At last, the TV Characters gave up."

RS Mr. Conductor, Spike and Bart: "We're sorry, GC Mr. Conductor."

Narrator: "They said."

GC Mr. Conductor: "It's really my fault."

Narrator: "Said GC Mr. Conductor sadly."

GC Mr. Conductor: "I shouldn't have fallen in the turntable well."

Narrator: "Toad felt sorry for GC Mr. Conductor, too.

Next morning, he spoke to Luigi."

Toad: "I'm worried, Mr. Luigi. This disrespect for TV Characters, when is it going to end?"

Luigi: "Who knows?"

Narrator: "Sighed Luigi."

Toad: "I've got a plan, Mr. Luigi. May I stay here today and help Mr. GC Conductor? We are both great western, and must stand together."

Luigi: "Of course, Toad."

Narrator: "Replied Luigi, and puffed away.

Soon, Toad was explaining his plan.

Spike: "Goodness Gracious, Toad, I don't think you should suggest such a thing to GC Mr. Conductor."

Narrator: "But GC Mr. Conductor interrupted."

GC Mr. Conductor: "No, Spike, Toad's right. It's really my fault. I must put this trouble right."

Toad: "I meant no disrespect, you understand."

GC Mr. Conductor: "Of course not, Toad. Anyway, driver says the same, and he's arranged it with the station master."

Spike: "Very well, GC Mr. Conductor."

Narrator: "Conceited Spike."

Spike: "But I must hurry; my passengers will be waiting. Good luck!"

GC Mr. Conductor: "So long!"

Narrator: "Smiled GC Mr. Conductor bravely, but he felt dreadfully nervous inside.

GC Mr. Conductor marshalled the worst goombas two by two."

Toad: "That's the way, Mr. GC Conductor."

Narrator: "Whispered Toad."

Toad: "And if you leave that Feathers McGraw till' last, then you'll have him behind you, and you can bump him if he starts his nonsense."

Feathers McGraw: "Hold back, hold back!"

Narrator: "Whispered Feathers McGraw."

Feathers McGraw: "And pass the word to the others."

Narrator: "The silly goombas giggled.

But GC Mr. Conductor knew what to do; there was plenty of sand on the ground and his feet gripped splendidly. He gave a great heave."

Feathers McGraw: "Oooh!"

Narrator: "Groaned Feathers McGraw."

Feathers McGraw: "I don't like this!"

Spike: "Go on!"

Narrator: "Yelled Spike."

Spike: "Well done, boy, well done!"

Feathers McGraw: "Ohhh!"

Narrator: "Wailed Feathers McGraw."

Feathers McGraw: "Oooh!

I'm coming apart!"

Narrator: "And he did.

Then there was trouble."

Mayor Adam West: "Well, GC Mr. Conductor, so you don't know your own strength, is that it?"

GC Mr. Conductor: "No, no, sir."

Narrator: "Said GC Mr. Conducotr nervously.

Mayor Adam West inspected Feathers McGraw."

Mayor Adam West: "As I've thought; rotten feathers, rusty bones. Maybe if we put you back together, you'll earn yourself a better name."

Narrator: "Nowadays, GC Mr. Conductor only takes the goombas when the other TV Characters are busy.

But they're always quick to warn each other,"

Goombas: "Take care with Mr. GC Conductor, if you play tricks on him, you'll never be the same goomba again!"

Narrator: "Feathers McGraw has learned his lesson, and says nothing at all."

Fish
Narrator: "On starry nights when the moon is full and the air still, you can hear the sounds of faraway ships and distant laughter. They echoed over the hills and through the valleys, down calm canals and sleepy inlits. Every TV character knows that these are the sounds that say the harbour is hard at work at the big station by the sea.

One night, a special load of fish was ordered. Mayor Adam West decided that extra goombas must be added to the line that the men called The Flying Kipper. The only goombas available were old ones. They had not been used for a long time. Homer waited impatiently by the keyside as Spike arranged them into position.

RS Mr. Conductor walked by with the mail."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Hello Spike. Going fishing? I'd take care if I were you."

Spike: "Why?"

Narrator: "Huffed Spike."

RS Mr. Conductor: "Well for one thing,"

Narrator: "Puffed RS Mr. Conductor, remembering his own experience."

RS Mr. Conductor: "If fish get into a TV character's body, they always cause trouble. And for another, fish can be awfully smelly. And I know what I'm talking about. Good night."

Narrator: "Homer grunted dreadfully."

Homer's Driver: "You'll just have to put up with it, Homer."

Narrator: "Said his driver."

Homer's Driver: "At least the extra load will mean you can have another TV character help us up Garfield's hill."

Narrator: "Meanwhile, Spike was waiting at Edd's station. So that he could help the heavy line by pushing from behind.

Homer made good progress.

When they reach Edd's station, his driver stopped the line beyond the platform. Then Homer gave a special signal."

Homer: "Peep, peep, peep, peep! I need help please?"

Spike: "Peep, peep!"

Narrator: "Replied Spike."

Spike: "I shan't be long."

Narrator: "Spike walked gently up to Homer's line. He was not hooked on. Homer would then be able to run on without stopping when they reached the top of the hill."

Spike: "Ready!"

Narrator: "Whistled Spike. And off they went.

Soon they reached Garfield's hill."

Homer: "Push hard, push hard!"

Narrator: "Puffed Homer."

Spike: "We're doing it, we're doing it!"

Narrator: "Replied Spike. Homer was pulling harder than he realized."

(Lamp falls off)

Narrator: "Spike felt the weight on the front of him slacking. Then Spike noticed something else."

Spike: "There's no sign of a tail lamp."

Narrator: "He thought. He whistled, but there was no reply. Meanwhile Homer had noticed something too."

Homer: "My line's getting heavier."

Narrator: "He thought to himself."

Homer: "I'm slowing down!"

Narrator: "Then there was trouble."

(CRASH!)

Narrator: "No one was hurt, but a strong smell of fish hung in the air.

Next day, workmen found the broken tail lamp at the bottom of the hill. Mayor West spoke kindly to Spike."

Mayor Adam West: "The accident wasn't your fault. We should've checked that this tail lamp was fixed on properly. We'll soon have you in working order again."

Spike: "Thank you, sir."

Narrator: "Said Spike sadly."

Spike: "RS Mr. Conductor told me to be careful about fish. They got me in a right pickle, didn't they?"

Special Attraction
Narrator: "Grandpa Dave was very excited. He was holding a brand-new bell that shone like gold. He was off to the seaside. His driver was explaining everything as they traveled along."

Grandpa Dave's Driver: "There's a seaside village near here. And every year, they have a big parade, with a special attraction for all the visitors.

This year, Grandpa Dave, you're the special attraction."

Grandpa Dave: "Thank you, sir,"

Narrator: "Said Grandpa Dave."

Grandpa Dave: "But what does a special attraction do?"

Grandpa Dave's Driver: "Oh, just smiles and whistles at everyone."

Narrator: "Replied his driver."

Grandpa Dave's Driver: "We're almost there. Listen, you can hear the seagulls."

Narrator: "Soon, they reached the little station by the village, but instead of a big welcome, there was just one man.

He whispered to Grandpa Dave's driver and turned sadly away."

Grandpa Dave's Driver: "Well, if that doesn't take the biscuit!"

Narrator: "Said Grandpa Dave's driver."

Grandpa Dave's Driver: "They've run out of room in the parade and don't need a special attraction after all. We've got to go home, Grandpa Dave. I'm sorry, old boy."

Grandpa Dave: "So am I."

Narrator: "Sighed Grandpa Dave.

Bart was arranging things in the yard. He didn't expect to see Grandpa Dave."

Bart: "What are you doing back so soon?"

Narrator: "Before Grandpa Dave could reply, Mayor Adam West arrived."

Mayor Adam West: "Leave these goombas here please, Bart. There's an emergency at the harbor."

Bart's Driver: "Come on, Bart,"

Narrator: "Said his driver."

Bart's Driver: "This will be trouble with Cabot!"

Bart: "Who's Cabot?"

Narrator: "Wondered Bart.

He was still surprised about Grandpa Dave, and now he had two puzzles to sort out. His driver explained."

Bart's Driver: "Cabot is a disagreeable ship. He never stops complaining."

Narrator: "His driver was right about Cabot. Today, the ship was more bad-tempered than ever."

Cabot: "Come on, come on, why aren't you goombas where you should be?"

Goombas: "There's no TV character, and we can only go where we're put!"

Narrator: "Shouted the goombas."

Goombas: "You're in the wrong place, not us!"

Narrator: "When Bart arrived, Cabot was sulking, and the goombas were crosser still."

Goombas: "Our stone is for Cabot. Please put us in a siding, so that we can load him up and be rid of him!"

Narrator: "But the goombas were being careless. As Bart was lining them up, they burst through a barrier."

Goombas: "Help! Help!"

Narrator: "They wailed.

But it was too late!"

(CRASH!)

Cabot: "Oooogh!"

Narrator: "Cried Cabot."

Cabot: "I'm sinking!"

Goombas: "Serves you right!"

Narrator: "Giggled the goombas."

Goombas: "You were always barging in and moaning!"

Narrator: "It took a very long time to clear the mess.

Bart watched as Cabot was towed to the beach."

Workmen: "There you are!"

Narrator: "Said the workmen."

Workmen: "Now you can just stay here. Children can play with you all day, and at long last, you'll be useful."

Narrator: "When Bart got home, he and Grandpa Dave exchanged all their news."

Grandpa Dave: "Well, we both had some seaside surprises today."

Narrator: "Laughed Grandpa Dave."

Grandpa Dave: "But driver says that I'm a special attraction anyway, and so are you. Every time we go on our own line."

Bart: "What do you mean?"

Narrator: "Asked Bart."

Grandpa Dave: "Well, all we have to do is smile and whistle at everyone!"
