"My Friend Rabbit" Branching Out/Willow Pond Wackadoo (TV Episode 2008) - Richard Binsley as Mouse

[first lines]

["Branching Out"]

Mouse : Have you ever tried to sleep somewhere other than your own bed? Sometimes it's not easy. That's what my friend Rabbit found out the night we all invited him to share our sleeping spots. It all started on a windy evening just before bedtime.

["Branching Out"]

Mouse : We never did move the big branch that was blocking the doorway to Rabbit's sleeping hole. But, working together, we dug two new doorways, and even made his cozy, warm, dark, dry, safe and quiet sleeping hole bigger. Good thing, too, because after all that digging, we were all ready for a nap.

Rabbit : Thank you for making room for all my friends.

Coral , Jade , Amber , Pearl : [sigh dreamily]

Edweena : [snores and trumpets]

Mouse : Even the one who snores.

[sighs happily]

["Willow Pond Wackadoo"]

Mouse : Oh, there you are. Have you ever been so hot that you wished it would rain just to cool down? That's what happened to us. It was so hot that I even wanted it to rain.

[a raindrop falls on him]

Mouse : Ooh. But then something really amazing happened, and all because of a story.

["Willow Pond Wackadoo"]

Mouse : [giggles] Well, we didn't get our wish, and we didn't get rain, or tap the Wackadoo's nose because it was only a story. But, hee-hee, we did have lots of fun and forgot about how hot it was and that was better than anything.
