James: Go on. Get out of here. Get as far away from this place as you possibly can. Oh, I wish I could.

Old Man: What's stopping you? (James and the heroes gasp upon seeing him) Oh, don't be frightened, everyone. I mean you and James no harm.

James: How'd you know my name?

Piglet; How did you know who we are, sir?

Old Man: (chuckles softly, to James) I know more than just your name. (to Piglet) I know everything, little fella. (to James) What would you say If I were to tell you that the answer to all your troubles is right here (shows him the bag) snside this little bag?

James: Hey! That's my...

Old Man: Of course it is. Go on, James. Have a look. (James looks inside the bag) There's more magic in them things than in all the rest put together.

Winnie the Pooh: May we ask, what are those things?

Old Man: Crocodile tongues.

Heroes: (with James) Tongues?

Old Man: One thousand long, slimy crocodile tongues, boiled in the skull of a dead witch for 20 days and 20 nights. Add the fingers of a young monkey, the gizzard of a pig, the beak of a parrot and three spoonsful of sugar. Stew for a week, and then let the moon... (He closes and opens his one eye as blank)

Heroes (with James) (gasps)

Old Man:...do the rest. (Blinks his blank eye to normal)

Misty: How did you do that, sir?

Old Man: I'm a magic man, my dear.
