• Tigger : Come on, Rabbit. Let's you and me bounce, huh?

  Rabbit : Good heavens! M-m-m-me bounce?

  Tigger : Why, certainly! And look, you've got the feet for it.

  Rabbit : I have?

  Tigger : Sure! Come on, try it! It makes ya feel just grrreat!

• Piglet : Pooh! Haven't you been listening to what Rabbit's been saying?

  Winnie the Pooh : I listened, but then I had a small piece of fluff in my ear. Could you say it again, please, Rabbit?

  Rabbit : Well, where should I start from?

  Winnie the Pooh : Well, from the moment the fluff got in my ear.

  Rabbit : Well, when was that?

  Winnie the Pooh : I don't know. I couldn't hear properly.

• Christopher Robin : You're next, Tigger. Jump!

  Tigger : Er, *jump*? But Tiggers don't jump, they bounce.

  Winnie the Pooh : Then bounce down.

  Tigger : Don't be "ridick-orous". Tiggers only bounce up!

  Christopher Robin : You can climb down, Tigger.

  Tigger : Ah, but tiggers can't climb down, uh, uh, because, uh, oh... oh their tails get in the way!

  Rabbit : Hooray! That settles it. If he won't jump, and he can't climb down, then we'll just have to leave him up there forever!

• Rabbit : Tigger! B-b-but you're supposed to be lost.

  Tigger : [patting Rabbit's cheeks]  Aw, tiggers never get lost, Bunny Boy.

  Rabbit : [dazed]  Never... get... lost?

  Tigger : Of course not!

  Rabbit : Oh, no.

• Tigger : [after crashing through Rabbit's garden, sending vegetables flying everywhere, then pouncing on him]  Hello, Rabbit! I'm Tigger! T-I double guh...

  Rabbit : [sitting up and shoving Tigger away]  Please! Please! Don't spell it! Oh dear, oh dear, just - just look at my beautiful garden!

  Tigger : Yyyyyuck! And messy, isn't it?

  Rabbit : Messy? Messy? It's ruined! It's ruined, Tigger! Aw, why won't you ever stop bouncing?

  Tigger : Why? That's what Tiggers do best! Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

• Winnie the Pooh : Uh, R-Rabbit?

  Rabbit : Yes?

  Winnie the Pooh : Say, Rabbit, how would it be if as soon as we're out of sight of this old pit, we just try to find it again?

  Rabbit : [baffled]  What's the good of that?

  Winnie the Pooh : Well, y'see, we keep looking for home, but we keep finding this pit, so I just thought that if we looked for this pit, we might find home.

  Rabbit : Hm, I don't see much sense in that. If I were to walk away from this pit, and then walk back to it - of course I shall find it! I'll prove it to you! Wait here!

  [marches away] 

• Tigger : [looking for Pooh, Rabbit and Piglet who are hiding in a hollow log]  That's funny. They must be lost.

  [yells into the log] 

  Tigger : [echoes repeatedly]  HELLO! Hey, you blokes! Where are ya?

  Winnie the Pooh : [sort of loudly]  In...

  [Rabbit grabs his mouth] 

  Rabbit : [whispers]  Shush!

  Winnie the Pooh : [whispers]  I am shushed!

• Rabbit : I've got a splendid idea! Now listen: we'll take Tigger for a long explore, see, somewhere he's never been before. And we'll lose him there!

  Winnie the Pooh : [awakes]  Lose him?

  Rabbit : Oh, we'll find him again next morning, and mark my words, he'll be a humble Tigger, a small and sad Tigger, and a "oh, rabbit, am I glad to see you" Tigger. And it'll take the bounces out of him, that's what! Now, all in favor, say 'aye'.

  Piglet : Aye.

  [Pooh falls asleep again] 

  Piglet : Pooh.

  [shakes Pooh awake] 

  Piglet : Pooh!

  Winnie the Pooh : [waking up, then raising his hand]  Oh, here.

  Rabbit : Oh-ho-ho, good. Just good. Motion carried.

• Christopher Robin : Hello, Pooh. Hello, Piglet. What's up?

  Winnie the Pooh : [pointing up to Tigger and Roo]  Tigger and Roo are up.

  Kanga : Oh, my goodness! Roo, how did you get up there?

  Roo : Easy, Mama. We bounced up.

  Kanga : Oh, my goodness. Do be careful, dear!

  Roo : I'm all right, Mama, but Tigger's stuck.

  Kanga : Oh, what a shame. That's too bad.

  Rabbit : No, that's good. You see, he can't bounce anybody up there.

  Christopher Robin : Oh, dear. We'll just have to get him down somehow.

  Rabbit : Down? Down? Do we have to?

• Tigger : If I ever get outta this, I promise never to bounce again! N-Never!

  Rabbit : I heard that, Tigger!

  [to Christopher Robin, Piglet, and Pooh, hurriedly questioning them] 

  Rabbit : He promised! Did you hear him promise? I heard him! I heard him! You heard him, didn't ya? Didn't ya?

• Roo : Christopher Robin, I like the old, bouncy Tigger best.

  [cut to Tigger sadly walking away] 

  Christopher Robin : So do I, Roo.

  Piglet : I do, too.

  Roo : Me, too.

  Kanga : Of course, we all do. Don't you agree, Rabbit?

  Rabbit : I uh...

  Christopher Robin : Well, Rabbit?

  Rabbit : Well, uh, uh, that is, I-uh, what I mean...

  Winnie the Pooh : Well?

  Rabbit : Uh, I uh...

  [sighs] 

  Rabbit : Oh, all right. I guess I like the old Tigger better, too.

  Tigger : [Pounces Rabbit]  Oh, boy! You mean I can have my bounce back? Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

• Tigger : [scooping up snow]  Oh, good old terra firma!

  [kisses the snow] 

  Tigger : Say, I'm so happy I feel like bouncing!

  [starts bouncing, but pauses when Rabbit interuppts him] 

  Rabbit : Uh-uh-uh! You promised! You promised!

  Tigger : [defeatedly falls back to the ground]  Oh, I did, didn't I? You mean I-I can't - ever bounce again?

  Rabbit : Never!

  Tigger : [whimpering]  N-Never?

  [brief silence] 

  Tigger : N-Not even just - one, teensy-weensy bounce?

  Rabbit : [defiantly]  Not even a *smidgen* of a bounce!
