The Animals of Farthing Wood (1993) s02e06 Episode Script
Home Is Where the Heart Is
While the warden was away, poachers had a field day in white deer park.
Though outwitted by the far-wing fox,
there is! It was not until the wardens returned,
that the animals were able to defeat the human enemy once and for all.
BARK!
BARK!
BARK!
It was a great day for white deer park.
Better, better, you're awake.
Well, as to that, I'm not so sure.
But if you were, the edible frogs wouldn't be so happy, would they?
That's for certain.
That reminds me, I've noticed that the birds are so happy.
I'm not eaten for months.
Well, don't get into trouble right away.
Seen, toad.
I can hardly see you.
His whole's empty, so he's definitely up and about.
All the animals of the park were up and about.
It was springtime.
The parents had their newly arrived young to teach.
Now, watch how I do it.
Bold, stop showing off.
Do your mother tell you about?
Are you watching?
Oh, what a dream.
Where is it?
Bold hit it under the moss.
Thank you, friendly.
You naughty cub.
Now.
Now you do it.
I say well done.
Good boy.
Very good, friendly.
Show off.
Father's watching.
But who's this?
No bold.
She has young.
Leave them alone.
Dream up.
Dream up.
I heard so much about you from my mate.
He died, you know.
Mole, the farthing wood Mole, he's dead.
We met at the beginning of winter.
But it was so cold and he was old.
He died leaving me makeless.
But these are his.
He's so soft like moss.
Yes, I shall call him mossy.
He's that badger.
We were all there.
All the animals from the farthing wood, except one, toady.
And guess what happened.
Sorry.
Oh no, battered.
Where was I?
You were in your old set and toad was missing.
Yes, well.
He'll be very upset to hear that Mole is dead.
Badger.
Someone call me.
This is Mole's mate.
Mole's mate?
Mole's mate?
There now I knew he was alright.
How is the sly little devil?
No need to ask. Look at these.
Badger.
Mole isn't with us.
We can see that for myself.
Tell him to get along and see me as soon as possible.
But.
But.
Mole's mate?
How well did you ever?
But.
But.
Oh dear.
Yes.
Oh dear.
He can't take it in poor old codger.
Quick, take cover.
Dreamer.
So sorry.
Well, I'm not really.
Nice, soft landing as a matter of fact.
Thank you.
That'll teach you to pay attention.
To what do we owe the pleasure, Whistler?
Adders out of hibernation.
Good.
I must say I have missed her.
What about Toad?
Anyone seen him?
No, that's the problem. He's disappeared.
Here.
I don't live here.
Do I?
Well mate, it's time to get home.
Got to get home.
Toadie.
Got to get back to the pond where I was born.
Got to get back.
Toadie.
Your old pond doesn't exist anymore.
Got to get back in the pond where I was born.
Toads.
I'm here.
I'm here.
I'm here.
I'm here.
I'm here.
Fox is hunt by night.
So now it's time for your afternoon sleep.
But I'm not tired.
Oh no, I'll sing to them.
What?
I'll sing a lullaby to send them to sleep.
Hush by Foxy deep in your ass.
Time to put it in a two-year man.
All in the foxy deep including you.
Lay through the daylight evening, fair blue.
What are you trying to do, weasel?
I could hear you over at the pond.
Scarface is watching you.
Scarface.
Shhh.
Where?
Through the bushes.
I can't see anything you're making it up weasel.
No, I'm not.
I was very brave coming to warn you.
Need to have had your cups for supper.
Really weasel?
Must you frighten my little ones like that?
Come along.
Bold, come back here.
What did you think you could do about it even if he was there?
Which of course he wasn't.
But it's true. Scarface was watching you.
What do you think, Owl?
Who knows?
However, he who is not cautious is not sagacious.
You're right.
Better safe than sorry.
Let me finish.
I was going to say, well, better safe than sorry.
Okay, I'll finish.
It would be very kind of you if you would keep watch.
That is what I was going to say.
I see Owl's on for.
Hello Owl.
Good sleep.
Lucky for you, my venom slow after my breakfast.
Ad is a friend.
We don't hurt her.
Stop it.
Bold, I can't wait to return your hospitality.
Ad are they young?
They don't know any better.
I'll have you know this Ad are saved my life once.
What a mistake to make.
Ad are, have you seen Toad?
He's gone home.
To Farthingwood.
That's what I was thinking.
That's what I came to tell you.
Oh no.
Trust Toad to take off.
We could go after him.
Bring him back.
You'd better.
Poor old Toad won't know what he's doing,
where he's going or anything.
His homing instincts always seem to get the better of him.
I'll stay here and keep watch on the cubs.
We can look after ourselves.
Now you know what Ad are felt like.
Weasel said Scarface was here.
She may have been right.
Ungrateful mean nasty things.
They're never nice to me.
Never.
And here I am risking my neck for the stupid silly weasel.
They don't care about me, so why should I care about them?
Serve them right if I did betray them to Scarface.
Yes, serve them right.
You will make life easier for me, so why don't I?
Oh, what's the matter with me?
Why can't I be disloyal?
Got to get home.
Got to get back to farrowing pond.
Mmm.
Mmm.
Help!
That's the best.
Dreamer, stay with the others.
Sorry, how?
Oh.
Toad.
Toad.
Toad.
Toad it.
Got to get back.
Got to get back to farrowing pond.
Got to get back.
Got to get back to farrowing pond.
I wasn't asleep, just resting my eyes.
Nice day for spying, Scarface.
Ow.
Or would you call it natural curiosity?
I'd like to know if you could tell me what you're doing.
Or would you call it natural curiosity?
I'd call it none of your business, you are right back.
Manners.
Shara.
One, two, three.
Ow.
In a very opener service.
Dreamer.
Scarface.
So that poor weasel was telling the truth.
I was just going out hunting.
If he found Vixen and the Cubs alone.
Don't you worry.
Vixen and I are quite capable of sending him off.
Anyway, as the revered sage said,
he who has run once will run twice.
What revered sage? The white stag?
No. Me.
Huh. Huh. Huh.
What's wrong, my love?
That farthing fox and his mate have had Cubs.
That was to be expected surely.
Anyway, they can't possibly be as sweet as ours.
I don't want sweet Cubs.
I want fighters.
They will be given time.
Look at Ranger.
Huh.
Yeah, they got your little liver blood.
So you think Vixen's Cubs are better than mine, do you?
Yes, they are much better.
This I must see for myself.
Kestrel? Kestrel?
Which one is toad?
I don't know.
But there's one way to find out.
Huh.
Huh.
It isn't toad.
Are you sure?
Huh.
This is my lucky day.
What now? Get the other one.
That's him, all right?
Now don't say a word or you'll drop him too.
Oh no.
Come on.
That's him, all right?
Toad. Toad.
Are you all right?
Wish Moly was here. Toad would recognize him, all right?
Poor Toad. What an experience.
One cannot for a thousand days on end enjoy the good.
Just as the flower cannot bloom a hundred days.
Ow! I know you anywhere.
I don't see what's so funny.
Funny or not, I'm just glad he's recognized you.
It means he's come out of his trance.
What am I doing in here?
We'll get you out. Never fear.
But I'm darned if I know how.
I could take him high up in the sky and drop him, like I did the other one.
No. There's only one animal that can open a jar like this.
A human animal.
Oh no, not again.
We'll see you there, Whistler.
Come on here.
I'm going to kill you. I'm going to kill you.
I'm going to kill you.
You did that deliberately.
What is it?
Ah!
Keep away from my cups.
As if I would want to have anything to do with such common riffraff.
Then what are you doing on Farthingland?
You wouldn't dare insult my cups if my mate were here.
Yes, well he isn't dizzy.
And lucky for you, neither's mine.
Are you threatening me?
What kind of mother leaves her cups unattended?
A mother with friends?
Where are your cups?
You're going to have trouble with that one.
Dear brave boat, you really do have more courage than sense.
Ah!
Oh and what have we got here?
May I ask?
A tone.
I can see that.
What's it doing here?
We can't get him out of the jar.
Oh no, don't tell me.
You're one of those Farthingwood lot, aren't you?
I suppose you want me to get the warden.
That usually brings him running.
I see.
You've found something tasty, do you?
Well, we'll see about that.
Good heavens.
Don't you dare, Cat.
You're the friend of mine.
Well, I never.
There he goes.
Excuse me, but how are we supposed to keep tone here?
Good question.
If we're quick, we'll be able to ask him.
So, what do you say, Toad?
He's not even listening.
Toad!
How can we stop you leaving the park?
There she is.
The most beautiful creature you ever saw.
Well, each to his own, I suppose.
I so much want to see the pond with you, Toad.
Your wish is my command.
What's your name, matey?
Paddock.
Toad's in no danger of leaving us now, eh?
One instinct will often overcome another.
The most beautiful creature you ever saw.
The most beautiful creature you ever saw.
The most beautiful creature you ever saw.
The most beautiful creature you ever saw.
The most beautiful creature you ever saw.
Though outwitted by the far-wing fox,
