Transcript

 * Michael Angeli: "Mr. Garrison's TV characters are proud of how useful they are. It makes them feel important. But none of them feels more important than Donkey Kong."
 * Donkey Kong: "Watch out!"
 * Michael Angelis: "Donkey Kong wheeshed."
 * Donkey Kong: "You'll get my fur all sooty!"
 * Tigger: "Taking Goombas is a sooty job."
 * Michael Angelis: "Teased Tigger."
 * Tigger: "But then, you wouldn't know."
 * Donkey Kong: "Of course not!"
 * Michael Angelis: "Donkey Kong huffed importantly."
 * Donkey Kong "Express characters don't take Goombas, it wouldn't be dignified!"
 * Piglet: "Dingy-fried?"
 * Michael Angelis: "Puzzled Piglet."
 * Piglet: "What's that?"
 * Donkey Kong: "Dignified."
 * Michael Angelis: "Donkey Kong Corrected."
 * Donkey Kong: "It means..."
 * Tigger: "It means that someone's too big for his tie!"
 * Michael Angelis: "Teased Tigger."
 * Donkey Kong: "Pah!"
 * Michael Angelis: "Said Sir Ector, and he puffed away. That evening, fog covered TV Land. Everything slowed down and soon the harbor was packed with waiting cargo. This caused confusion and delay. Mr. Garrison came to see the TV Characters. He was in a great hurry."
 * Mr. Garrison: "Wallace, Mario and Piglet,"
 * Michael Angelis: "He said."
 * Mr. Garrison: "You must go to the harbor immediately."
 * Wallace, Mario and Piglet: "Yes, sir."
 * Michael Angelis: "They whistled. Then Mr. Garrison turned to the big brown ape."
 * Mr. Garrison: "You too, Donkey Kong."
 * Michael Angelis: "He said."
 * Mr. Garrison: "I need a big ape to take the Goombas where they won't be in the way."
 * Donkey Kong: "Goombas?"
 * Michael Angelis: "Huffed Donkey Kong. He could not believe what he had heard! Donkey Kong wasn't happy to be with Goombas. He waited impatiently for them."
 * Donkey Kong: "Hurry up! Hurry up!"
 * Michael Angelis: "Chuffed Donkey Kong crossly."
 * Mario: "Why the rush, Donkey Kong?"
 * Michael Angelis: "Asked Mario."
 * Donkey Kong: "If I must take Goombas, then I'll show Tigger just how an express character takes Goombas!"
 * Michael Angelis: "Donkey Kong chuffed."
 * Tigger: "Careful, Captain."
 * Michael Angelis: "Tigger tooted."
 * Tigger: "You don't want to get too big for your tie."
 * Michael Angelis: "But Donkey Kong ignored Tigger. The next morning, Donkey Kong raced along with his heavy load."
 * Donkey Kong: "Now this is how you take Goombas!"
 * Michael Angelis: "He puffed. But the animator had accidentally left the points switch to the lost forest. Donkey Kong rattled through the junction."
 * Donkey Kong: "That's strange,"
 * Michael Angelis: "He exclaimed."
 * Donkey Kong: "I'm on the lost forest!"
 * Animator: "Oh, no!"
 * Michael Angelis: "The animator cried."
 * Animator: "Express characters aren't supposed to go that way!"
 * Michael Angelis: "But it was too late. Donkey Kong had already raced into the distance. The old forest was weak and rusty. There were signs warning all the characters to Go Slow, but Donkey Kong ignored the signs."
 * Donkey Kong: "I'm an express character! I don't 'Go Slow'!"
 * Michael Angelis: "He said, and he went even faster. The forest couldn't take his weight, and the ground buckled."
 * Donkey Kong: "Oh, help!"
 * Michael Angelis: "Donkey Kong cried as he slid off the hill and into a field."
 * "(Multiple crashes)"
 * Michael Angelis: "No one was hurt, but poor Donkey Kong felt very... undignified."
 * Donkey Kong: "What will Mr. Garrison say?"
 * Michael Angelis: "He groaned. He found out soon enough."
 * Mr. Garrison: "Well, Donkey Kong,"
 * Michael Angelis: "Said Mr. Garrison."
 * Mr. Garrison: "You wanted to show Tigger a thing or two, and you've certainly done that. You've shown him how silly it is to ignore "Go Slow" signs!"
 * Donkey Kong: "Sorry, Sir."
 * Michael Angelis: "Said Donkey Kong, and let out a sad sigh. Donkey Kong was healed and back at the harbor, ready for work, but he was very unhappy with himself."
 * Mario: "Everyone makes mistakes."
 * Michael Angelis: "Said Mario."
 * Mario: "Even you."
 * Rabbit: "Tigger's sorry he teased you."
 * Michael Angelis: "Puffed Rabbit."
 * Donkey Kong: "And I'm sorry I was 'too big for my tie'!"
 * Michael Angelis: "Chuffed Donkey Kong. And all the TV characters gave a jolly cheer, even Donkey Kong!"
