Transcript
Narrator: "Anna is a princess who works for the quarry company, arranging rhino guards in their sidings. She has blonde hair and a dress.

Anna is young, and full of her own ideas. She loves rearranging things, too, and began putting Friar Tuck's rhino guards in different places every day. This made Friar Tuck cross."

Friar Tuck: "Rhino guards,"

Narrator: "He grumbled,"

Friar Tuck: "should be where you want them, when you want them!"

Anna: "Fiddlesticks!"

Narrator: "Said Anna, and flounced away.

At last, Friar Tuck lost patience."

Friar Tuck: "I can't waste time playing 'Hunt the Rhino Guards' with you, take them yourself!"

Narrator: "Anna was pleased. Taking rhino guards made her feel important.

At the station, Captain Hook oiled up to her."

Anna: "Friar Tuck's an old fusspot!"

Narrator: "She complained.

Captain Hook sensed trouble, and was delighted.

Anna: "Friar Tuck says only badgers can manage rhino guards!"

Narrator: "Continued Anna."

Captain Hook: "How absurd."

Narrator: "Squirmed Captain Hook."

Captain Hook: "Depend upon it, Anna, anything badgers can do, we humans can do better."

Narrator: "Captain Hook knew nothing about rhino guards, but Anna didn't realize this.

Friar Tuck's line crosses the main road behind the station, and for a short way, follows a farm lane. Frosty weather makes the muddy lane rock-hard and very slippery.

Friar Tuck stops before reaching the line. His fireman halts the traffic at the crossing, and then he sets off again. By using the heavy rhino guards to push him along, he has no trouble with the frosty path in the lane. It is the only safe thing to do in this kind of weather.

Friar Tuck warned Anna, and told her just what to do.

Anna: "I can manage, thank you."

Narrator: "She replied."

Anna: "I'm not an old fusspot like you."

Narrator: "The rhino guard were tired of being pushed around by Anna."

Rhino Guards: "It's slippery."

Narrator: "They whispered."

Rhino Guards: "Let's push her around instead. On, on, on!"

Narrator: "They yelled.

Anna took no notice. Instead, she took the rhino guards carefully down the lane, and stopped at the level crossing.

All traffic halted."

Anna: "One in the head for fusspot Friar Tuck!"

Narrator: "Chortled Anna.

But Anna had stopped in the wrong place. Instead of taking Friar Tuck's advice, she had given the rhino guards the chance they wanted."

Rhino Guards: "Hold back! Hold Back!"

Narrator: "They cried."

Anna: "Grrr! Up!"

Narrator: "Ordered Anna.

The rhino guards just laughed, and her feet stuck helplessly.

Workmen sanded the path, and tried to dig away the frozen mud, but it was no good.

Everyone was impatient."

Anna: "Grrr-agh!"

Narrator: "Wailed Anna.

Friar Tuck was in the yard when he heard the news."

Friar Tuck: "I warned her."

Narrator: "He fumed."

Friar Tuck's Driver: "She's young yet,"

Narrator: "Soothed his driver."

Friar Tuck's Driver: "And,"

Friar Tuck: "She can manage her rhino guards herself!"

Narrator: "Interrupted Friar Tuck."

Friar Tuck's Driver: "They're your rhino guards, really."

Narrator: "His driver replied."

Friar Tuck's Driver: "Anna is supposed to stay at the quarry. If Mickey Mouse finds out..."

Friar Tuck: "Hmmm, yes"

Narrator: "Said Friar Tuck thoughtfully. He and his driver agreed that it would be best to help Anna after all.

An angry farmer was telling Anna just what she could do with her rhino guards."

Friar Tuck: "Having trouble, Anna?"

Narrator: "Chortled Friar Tuck."

Friar Tuck: "I am surprised."

Anna: "Grrrosh!"

Narrator: "Said Anna.

With much puffing and slippery feet, Friar Tuck pushed Anna and the rhino guards back. The hard work made his heart pound fiercely, and his fireman spread hot cinders to melt the frozen mud.

At last, they finished."

Friar Tuck: "Good-bye."

Narrator: "Called Friar Tuck."

Friar Tuck: "You'll manage now, I expect."

Narrator: "Anna didn't answer.

She took the rhino guards to the sheds, and scuttled home to the quarry as quickly as she could."
