Editing Littlefoot Meets The Fox and the Hound/Transcript (section)

== Copper grows up/The next spring ==



(Next spring, Big Mama comes out of her tree and throws out her leaves.)

Tod: (laughs as leaves fell on him)

Littlefoot and Ash: (laughs) Big Mama!

(Big Mama looks down and sees Littlefoot, Ash, and Tod, now as a fully grown fox, covered in leaves.)

Big Mama: Well, look who's here? (Tod shakes the leaves off him) Oh, my goodness! (laughs as she flicks the remaining leaf off of Tod) I'm sorry, boys.

Ash Ketchum: (giggles) That's okay, Big Mama.

Brock: (laughs) Good morning, Big Mama. Beautiful spring day, huh?

Big Mama: Good morning, Brock and yes, it is indeed beautiful.

(Just then, Dinky and Boomer arrived.)

Dinky: Hiya, Big Mama! We're back! We flew all the way!

Boomer: Oh, yeah. Uh, we did. We did.

Big Mama: Welcome home, boys! You know? It's been kinda lonesome around here without you little rascals.

Littlefoot and Ash: Hi, Dinky. Hi, Boomer.

Pikachu: Pika, Pikachu.

Boomer; Hi, Littlefoot.

Dinky: Hi, Ash. Hi, Pikachu. How you boys been?

Ash Ketchum: We've been great.

Tod: Hi, fellas!

Boomer: Hey, who's that? Who's that?

Princess Eilonwy: It's Tod, remember?

Dinky: Hey, this can't be this scrawny little squirt there we found by the fence post, can it? Come on.

Littlefoot: We found Tod by the fence post when he was a little baby.

Cera: Yeah, he used to be. But not anymore.

Big Mama: That's right, kids. I was there and I helped.

Dinky and Boomer: Us too.

SpongeBob Squarepants: Yep, he's now a fully grown fox.

Boomer: I can't believe my eyes.

Tod: (chuckles) It's me, all right.

Dinky: (sees Tod's collar) Hey, looky, guys. He's got himself a fancy collar.

Ducky: It was a birthday present that Mrs. Tweed gave him this winter.

Dinky and Boomer: Really?

Ducky: Yep, yep, yep.

Boomer: (looking at Tod's tail) Hey, hey. (wraps himself with Tod's tail) Just look at this bushy tail. (laughs) B-Beautiful.

(Big Mama, Dinky and the heroes laugh in amusement.)

Tod: Aw, come on, cut it out. You guys are always teasing me.

Littlefoot: We love you, Tod.

Tod: I love you guys too.

(Just then, Mrs. Tweed comes out.)

Dinky: We'll see ya later, guys. We gotta take care of some unfinished business.

Misty: Oh, boy. Let's see if they'll mess it up again like they did the last time.

(Our heroes giggle. Mrs. Tweed examines her plant.)

Widow Tweed: I can't understand it was so healthy.

Daphne Blake: I think your plant needs water, Mrs Tweed.

Velma Dinkley: Yeah, and lots of sunshine too.

Widow Tweed: Oh, yes, you're right. Thank you, girls. (Squeeks gasps upon seeing Mrs. Tweed pour water on her plant) There, that ought to perk it up.

(Squeeks sneezed and sends him flying into the drain pipe.)

Boomer: Now where'd he go? (looks inside the drainpipe) Where'd he go?!

Dinky: (looks inside the drainpipe) He's goin' up the drainpipe! I'll head him off!  (flies up to the top) Okay, Boomer! We've got him trapped! Let him have it!

(Boomer starts hammering into the pipe with his beak. It vibrates like crazy, and Dinky becomes dizzy. Squeaks appears from within the pipe, slightly stunned. He then spots Dinky, screams and escapes. Dinky regains consciousness as Boomer reaches the top of the drainpipe.)

Dinky: Did you get him?

Boomer: Get him?

Dinky: No, I didn't.

Boomer: Neither did I.

(Squeaks has crawled onto a telephone line,)

Dinky: Come on! Look!

(Squeaks sees them coming and squeezes his body under some kind of glass cap.)

Boomer: Hoo hoo hoo! A caterpillar under glass. Oh boy! (taps at the glass and both he and Dinky get zapped themselves by electricity, making the glass explode in the process)

(Squeaks is also electrocuted as well. Boomer climbs up and his feathers are charred from the electricity.)

Boomer: Holy!

Dinky: (smoking from the electricity) Smoke! (coughs)

Tod: (gasps upon seeing Boomer and Dinky completely fried from the electricity and starts to laugh) Hey, guys, look at that! (laughs)

Neera: Oh, good grief! (laughs alongside with Aladar)

(Everyone else start to laugh hysterically at Boomer and Dinky for their silliness. For they find their electrifying misfortune extremely funny.)

Ash Ketchum: (laughs) That sure gave them a major shock treatment! Didn't it, Littlefoot? (laughs)

Littlefoot: It sure did! (laughs) Boomer and Dinky, you guys are the funniest birds we've ever seen! (laughs)

Pikachu: Pika! (laughs)

Taran: (laughs) I guess those two silly birds don't know a thing or two about electricity! (laughs)

Brock: (laughs) Probably not, Taran! (laughs)

Baloo: Those birdbrains sure got quite an electric personality. Huh, Baggy? (chuckles)

Bagheera: (chuckles) I have to admit that was pretty funny. (chuckles)

(Our heroes continue to laugh at the two birds' silly misfortune. Squeaks, having enough with Boomer and Dinky, turns and leaves with a huff. As he wiggles away, he begins glowing.)

Boomer: Hey, hey! How's he do that, Dinky? How's he do that?

Grandpa Longneck: (chuckles warmly as he grabs them and lowers them down to his grandson and friends) Alright, you two, that's enough silliness for today. We think it's better you leave the little critter alone for now.

Ash Ketchum: Are you guys, okay? (chuckles)

Boomer and Dinky: (dazed as their bodies are smoking from the electricity) Yep.

Littlefoot: (chuckles) You guys are so funny. (he and Ash laugh)

[The camera fades to a shot of the road in front of the farm, Amos is driving down the road]

Amos Slade: (singing) I ain't got no job. I'm a huntin' man. And I'd rather have a dog than a dollar. So, let's go banjo ring-a-ling-a-ding ho! Give a little hoot and a holler! Ha ha!

("A Huntin' Man" stops playing. Chief looks grumpy)

Amos Slade: Aw come on, Chief. Just 'cause you're not sittin' up front, that ain't no reason to be a sore head. Shucks. If it weren't for you, Copper'd never turned into a good huntin' dog. Yes sirree. Now I've got me the best two dogs there is. Right, Copper?

Copper: (barking)

Amos Slade: Ha ha! Isn't he somethin', Chief? (Laughs)

(Amos starts howling along with Copper, Chief covers up his ears. Littlefoot and his friends stop and hear Copper's howling.)

Littlefoot and Ash: (excitedly) Copper's home!

SpongeBob and Patrick: Yippee!!!

(They run up to the fence near the road.)

Tod: Look, guys, Copper's back.

Pikachu: Pika.

Misty: We know, Tod. Isn't this exciting?

Bagheera: My, my, how Copper has grown.

Ash Ketchum: Yeah and look at that huge pile of animal skins he helped tracked out during his trip. Pretty impressive, wouldn't you say?

Jack Skellington: Indeed. Very impressive.

Tod: I know, Ash. He's a huntin' dog now.

Big Mama: You're right. And you're a fox.

Tod: Oh, that won't make any difference. Copper's gonna be glad to see me.

Big Mama: Well, honey. Just don't get your hopes too high.

Tod: Look, don't worry. I'll be careful. I'll go over tonight when Chief and the hunter are sound asleep.

Amos Slade: (sighs) Home sweet Home. Let’s see if everything’s in one piece. Hmm..... All the furniture seems to be in place. Not a scratch on anything. That's good. Huh? What the? (sees the broken picture and picks it up, groans) The picture broke. Must've been a really bad storm that winter. (closes the windows) Cheap windows. Let’s see what those meddling kids are up to. (Grabs binoculars and sees our heroes) Still hanging at Widow’s. (sees Tod, then whistles) Boy, did that fox grow. (sees Delia Ketchum) Oh, boy. Looks like Delia’s hanging around with those kids. (puts binoculars down) Well, watch out kids. Next time we see each other, it’s game over for you and that fox.
