The Land Before Time III: The Time of the Great Giving Transcript

Narrator: A long time ago, at least 3,500 million years ago, the earliest form of life, made its first appearance on earth. These single-celled creatures developed and grew, and changed a million times over. : Until at last, there was a creature able to leave the sea, and to crawl out into an unknown world. From this small, fish-like creature, came hundreds of other animals.The mightiest of which was called, the dinosaurs! For most of the earth's dinosaurs, life was filled with danger. But for the fortunate leaf-eating dinosaurs of the Great Valley, life was peaceful, and food plentiful. The Great Valley was the perfect place for children, like Littlefoot, the Longneck, Cera, the Threehorn, Ducky, the Swimmer, Petrie, the Flyer, and Spike, the Spiketail, to grow and learn and play.
Littlefoot: I got it!
Petrie: Now me got it! 
Ducky: Go, Spike! Did you get it, Spike? Did you, huh? Yep, yep, yep! You got it!
Cera: I found another one! I found another one! [laughing]
Littlefoot: Hi, Hyp. Can we have our rock back, please?
Hyp: Your rock? Who said it was your rock?
Nod: Yeah, who said it was your rock, huh? Who said? Who said?
Mutt: Oh! Ah, yeah!
Littlefoot: Well, gee, no one. We were just playing with it.
Cera: So give it back, Hyp.
Hyp: But I didn't hear you say please!
Cera: That's because I didn't! [growls at Hyp]
Littlefoot: Hey, maybe we can all play together!
Petrie: Good idea, Littlefoot. We all play!
Ducky: [repeated line] Yep, yep, yep. The more the "betterer"!
[Spike nods]
Hyp: What do you think, guys? Want to play with these babies?
Cera: Babies? Who's he calling babies?
Ducky: Us?
Petrie: Hmph! Me no baby! [inhales] Me big!
Hyp: Yeah, a big baby!
Petrie: Me no like them.
Cera: Me neither. I'll show 'em!
Littlefoot: Cera!
Cera: I'm busy. 
Mutt: Nyah! Nyah!
Hyp: Try and get us! Yeah, yeah, try!
Mutt: Whoa! What's that? It's a-a-a...
Cera: "Earthshake"! [screaming]
Petrie: Rocks fly?
Hyp: Flying rocks! [screaming]
Cera: Daddy!
Ducky: Mama!
Littlefoot: Grandma! Grandpa!
Mother Quetzalcoatlus: Fly, children! Fly!
Iguanodon: Run!
Grandma: Littlefoot!
Grandpa: Look out!
Grandma: Littlefoot!
Littlefoot: I'm in here, Grandma.
Grandma: [to Littlefoot] Are you all right, little one?
Grandpa: Would you like to come out now?
Littlefoot: Gee, that wasn't a regular kinda "earthshake," was it?
Grandpa: No, Littlefoot, it wasn't.
Littlefoot: Then what kind was it?
Grandma: We don't know, Littlefoot. Perhaps it had to do with those great rocks falling from the sky.
Littlefoot" Oh, yeah! I saw 'em! And I saw that big one land somewhere in the Mysterious Beyond. I sure wish we could go find it.
Grandpa: Yes, that would be an adventure, now wouldn't it?
Grandma: Well, I think we've had enough adventure for one day. Come. It's time to settle down for the night.
Littlefoot: It's beautiful, isn't it, Grandpa?
Grandpa: Oh, yes, Littlefoot, beautiful and mysterious, as is so much in our world. Well, at least the danger has passed.
Ducky's Mom: What? Look, everyone! Where did the water go?
Ducky's Dad: It stopped flowing!
Male Dinosaur 1: How can that be?
Male Dinosaur 2: What will we do without water?
Littlefoot: Grandpa, why did the Thundering Falls stop?
Grandpa: I don't know, Littlefoot. I don't know.
Grandma: Littlefoot, go and play. Grandpa and I must talk with the other grown-ups.
Littlefoot: Sure, Grandma. See ya later, Grandpa.
Male Dinosaur 3: This has never happened before!
Littlefoot: Hey, guys! Guess what happened to the Thundering Falls.
Ducky: Shh! We are trying to find Cera. She has "hided" from us.
Littlefoot: But...
Petrie: Uh! Me no find Cera anywhere!
Littlefoot: Guess what, Petrie?
Petrie: What? You no find Cera either?
Ducky: Cera is a very good hider. She is!
Cera: [peeks out] Boo!
Cera: I scared you! I scared you! I did!
Petrie: You no scared me, Cera. Me "unscare-able."
Littlefoot: Petrie? You're hurting my nose.
Petrie: Oh, sorry. Me no know my own strength. [flies off of Littlefoot]
Cera: Now who's going to hide? Littlefoot?
Littlefoot: Okay, but first I wanna tell you something.
Cera: Well, hurry it up! We wanna play!
Littlefoot: I saw...
Littlefoot: Hey!
Ducky: [giggling] Spike is taking your turn for you, Littlefoot. My brother is not a very good hider. Oh, no!
Cera: Now just what were going to say, Littlefoot?
Littlefoot: It's the Thundering Falls. It's not giving us any water. You gotta come see.
Hyp: Why don't you hatchlings go run and see.
Nod: Yeah, run and see. Run and see!
Mutt: Oh. Bah, yeah!
Cera: Try and make us!
Ducky: No, Cera, no!
Cera: Oh, don't worry. I won't hurt 'em much! 
Hyp: Put those away.
Littlefoot: How come all you ever wanna do is fight, Hyp?
Petrie: Yeah! Fight! Ow! Fighting hurt.
Mutt: Yeah, it does give ya "ow-ees," Hyp. Why do we do it?
Hyp: Why? Why? Because we're bigger. And bigger is smarter! Bigger is meaner! And bigger is better!
["When You're Big" begins]
Hyp: [singing] When you're big, you can push all the little ones around. They're lookin' up while you are looking down. You can snap a tree in two like it was just a twig. Things are better when you're big.
All: [singing] When you're big.
Hyp: [singing] You can do anything you want to do.
Mutt: [singing] Wah-oh.
Hyp: [singing] All the rules that grownups make, they don't apply to you.
Both: [singing] Not to you.
Hyp: [singing] You can splash in all the puddles, gulp, slurp, and swig.
Both: [singing] Oh, wah.
Hyp: [singing] The world is better when you're big.
Both: [singing] Glug, glug, glug.
Hyp: [singing] You can snort.
Both: [singing] You can snort.
Hyp: [singing] You can growl.
Both: [singing] You can growl.
Hyp: [singing] You can stomp.
Both: [singing] You can stomp.
Hyp: [singing] You can howl.
Both: [singing] You can howl.
Hyp: [singing] You can bonk someone smaller on the head.
Both: [singing] On the head. [scat]
Hyp: [singing] You can take what you want, play all day in the swamp. And you never ever have to go to bed.
All: [singing] When you're big.
Hyp: [singing] You can step on little people's toes.
Both: [singing] Oh, wah.
Hyp: [singing] Munch on their lunch.
Nod: [singing] Lunch.
Hyp: [singing] And bop them in the nose.
Both: [singing] Oh, yeah.
Hyp: [singing] Threehorns, and longnecks, and duck feet, too.
Both: [singing] Duck feet, too.
Hyp: [singing] They all have to do anything you want them to.
Both: [singing] You want them to.
Hyp: [singing] And if they don't, you can plop them...
All: [singing] ...in the goo!
Hyp: [singing] Don't you forget.
Hyp: [singing] What you want, you get.
Hyp: [singing] Things are better when you're big.
Both: [singing] Sha la la la la la la la la la la la la.
Hyp: [singing] When you're big.
Both: [singing] Sha la la la la la la la la la la la la.
Hyp: [singing] When you're big.
Both: [singing] Sha la la la la la la la la la la la la.
Hyp: [singing] When you're big!
Littlefoot: But, Hyp, when you're all grown up, you won't be very big at all.
Cera: Yeah, your kind never gets very big. When we grow up, we'll be much bigger!
Ducky: Uh-huh, uh-huh, much, much, much, much bigger!
Hyp: Oh, yeah? Well, I'm gonna see to it that you never grow up.
Mutt: Ah, yeah!
Nod: Never grow up! Never!
Mutt: Ah, how are ya gonna do that, Hyp?
Hyp: Sheesh, you're dumb. Let me lay it out for you. First, we chase 'em. Second, we catch 'em. Third, we hurt 'em! See?
Mutt: Ah, no, Hyp. I don't see anybody.
Nod: Me neither.
Hyp: What? Ugh! Come on! We'll pound 'em later.
Grandpa: As you can all see, our valley is quickly drying up.
Female Stegosaurus: Yes, we see it and feel it as well. There is less and less water to drink!
Iguanadon: And green food to eat!
Grandpa: I know. That is why our herds must work together, to save the little water we have left. From now on, we must drink only what we need to survive and no more. Hopefully soon, the Thundering Falls will bring us water again. If not, we may have to leave the Great Valley.
Ducky's Mom: Leave the Great Valley?
Iguanadon: Never! It's our home.
Grandpa: Then until the water returns, we must not use the water we have left unwisely.
Cera's Dad: Hmph! Threehorns never use water unwisely, but your herds do.
Kosh: Our herds? What makes you think our herds would do such a thing?
Cera's Dad: You drink greedily with no concern for others.
Female Stegosaurus: Can you believe he's saying that?
Kosh: Well, I've seen threehorns waste!
Cera's Dad: What?
Kosh: You take long baths even if you're the least bit dirty! (to an iguanadon) And I've seen your kind waste, too. Splashing water needlessly. For shame!
Iguanadon: Impossible! I never did such a thing!
Cera: Hey, let's play bullies. I'll be Hyp. [imitates Hyp] I'm gonna get you!
Littlefoot: [imitates Mutt] Not if I get you first!
[she gasps, then laughs, then they both run to Spike, and Petrie]
Petrie: Me wanna play bullies too! [imitates Nod] Hey, hatchling! You no eat my green food!
Petrie: Hmph! Me go play bullies someplace else! Yeow! [falls in the water]
Ducky: Petrie, you are a flyer, not a swimmer. [laughing]
Petrie: Me no bully either. [sighing]
Hyp: But I am!
Littlefoot: Aww!
Cera: Not again.
Ducky: Oh, no, no, no, no, no!
Petrie: It them.
Hyp: Though you hatchlings could play in our swimming hole, huh?
Cera: They're beginning to get on my nerves.
Nod: Can we teach 'em a lesson, Hyp? Can we, huh?
Hyp: Be my guest, Nod! 
Littlefoot: Run!
Mutt: See ya!
Hyp: Wouldn't wanna be ya!
Cera's Dad: This is not funny. Now someone splahed me and wasted precious water!
Littlefoot: Huh?
Ducky: [to Littlefoot] Littlefoot, are you all right?
Littlefoot: Uh-huh. But I think I'm in trouble.
Cera's Dad: Your Littlefoot is guilty of wasting water.
Grandpa: What happened, Littlefoot?
Littlefoot: It was an accident, Granpda. Honest.
Grandpa: I'm sure it was, Littlefoot. Our children don't understand the water problem. The Great Valley has always given them everything they need.
Cera: What are the grown-ups talking about? What water problem? Isn't the Thundering Falls coming back?
Littlefoot: I don't know.
Cera: Well, it should. Why wouldn't it?
Ducky: Maybe it is tired and needs to rest.
Grandpa: We need to teach our children how to use the remaining water wisely.
Cera's Dad: Speak for yourself, long neck! My Cera would never waste. Your Littlefoot is a bad influence.
Grandpa: That's not true!
Ducky: What is influence?
Petrie: Me no know.
Cera's Dad: Come, Cera. You're not to play with the little longneck anymore.
Cera: But, Daddy!
Grandpa: My friend, I think you're acting rashly. Littlefoot is not to blame.
Cera's Dad: Hmph! I said come, Cera!
Cera: No! 
Cera's Dad: Cera, I'm your father, and I know what's best for you.
Petrie's Mom: Petrie! It's time to go home!
Petrie: Oh, bye-bye. Coming, mama! 
Ducky's Mom: Come, Ducky. Spike, you too.
Ducky: Do not worry, Littlefoot. You are not an influence, whatever that is.
Littlefoot: I don't understand, Grandpa. Why does Cera's dad think I'm bad?
Grandpa: Oh, he's just confused, Littlefoot. Sometimes fear makes grown-ups do strange things.
Cera: I don't understand, Daddy!
Cera's Dad: You need friends who know how to behave, especially in times like this.
Cera: Littlefoot is my friend! He'll always be my friend!
Cera's Dad: Cera, I'm your father. I want what's best for you.
Cera: No, you don't! You just don't want me to have any fun! 
Cera's Dad: Cera, please. I'm just trying to... Oh, as a parent, I... 
Grandma: Time to wake up, my little one.
Littlefoot: But, Grandma, it's early and I'm still sleepy.
Grandpa: You must get up, Littlefoot, if you want to drink the morning dew with us.
Littlefoot: The morning dew?
Grandpa: Yes. It collects on the leaves in the early morning. [pushes Littlefoot] If we hurry, we can drink the dew, before the bright circle gets too high in the sky and dries it all up.
Littlefoot: Oh. [yawning] All right. 
Grandpa: [takes a tree star to Littlefoot] Here, Littlefoot, drink this. I think you'll find it delicious.
Littlefoot: Oops. It-It broke.
Grandma: It's not your fault, Littlefoot. The treestars are very dry now and crumble easily.
Littlefoot: [sighs] But when will everything be green and wet again, Grandma?
Grandma: I don't know. I hope soon.
Littlefoot: Well, what's going to happen if it's not soon?
Grandpa: Water will get harder and harder to find. Soon, everything will be as dry as that treestar.
Grandma: And it will be easier for fires to start.
Littlefoot: Fire?
Grandma: Yes, Littlefoot. Which is why you must remember the escape paths we've shown you.
Littlefoot: Don't worry, Grandma. I'll remember.
Grandma: I think we're in luck. There are still quite a few green treestars left here.
Grandpa: Come on, then. Let's eat!
Littlefoot: Yeah, let's eat! These don't look too good, but I sure am hungry. 
Littlefoot: [spitting out] Uh! They taste terrible!
Grandpa: [Here, Littlefoot, try these. They're still very green. 
Littlefoot: Thanks, Grandpa.
Grandma: Go on, Littlefoot, eat up.
Littlefoot: But... But what about you? Don't you want some?
Grandma: Thank you, Littlefoot. But Grandpa and I will be fine.
Grandpa: Yes, you're still growing. You need the very best green food we can find.
Littlefoot: Well, okay. That was good, but I sure am thirsty. When is it our turn for water?
Grandma: Our turn for water is when the bright circle touches the smoking mountain.
Grandpa: But if you're thirsty, I think you can have a drink now. After all, we never agreed that the children should have the same water restrictions as the elders.
Littlefoot: Oh, boy! Water!
Cera's Dad: It's not your time to drink, long necks!
Grandpa: What do you mean, not our time?
Cera's Dad: We agreed that all herds must take turns drinking at the watering hole.
Grandpa: Yes, we all agreed, but I didn't think that it included the children. It really isn't fair to them.
Cera's Dad: There is no fair when it comes to survival!
["Standing Tough" begins, then Kosh drinks water]
Cera's Dad: [singing] When life is tough, you gotta be tougher. If you wanna stay alive, when the trail gets rough, you gotta get rougher. To help your family survive, you can run around in circles. Wondering what to do, someone's gotta be the voice of reason. Is it you, or you, or you? When things around us are going bad, we all better be strong. We could lose everything we have, if this goes on too long. Don't stand around here talking! I say that's not enough. No tears, no sighs, don't close your eyes. We gotta stand tough. I used to hear my father say, "Stand and fight, don't run away." He made me what I am today. I'm here. And I'm tough. When times are hard, you better be harder. You don't know what's in store. You think you're smart? You gotta be smarter than you ever were before. You say I'm mean, you say why bother? Well, I have a daughter and I'm her father. I'm gonna make sure we all have water enough, that's why I'm tough. I'm standing tough! We've got to stand tough! You don't like it? Tough.
Cera: Littlefoot!
Littlefoot: Huh?
Cera: Over here! Hurry!
Grandpa: You judge us wrongly, threehorn.
Cera's Dad: I'm only doing what needs to be done.
Grandma: But this is going too far.
Cera: Oh! What are we gonna do about the grown-ups, Littlefoot? They're acting like babies!
Littlefoot: I know.
Cera: And it's all the Thundering Falls' fault too! If we had more water, this wouldn't be happening.
Littlefoot: That's it, Cera!
Cera: What's it?
Littlefoot: Water! If we find some, the grown-ups will stop being mad.
Cera: Maybe. Except for my dad. He's always mad.
Littlefoot: Yeah, he is kind of grumpy. But I'm sure it's just because he's so worried about the water.
Cera: Yeah. Anyway, let's go get Petrie, Ducky and Spike and find some water!
Grandpa: How about a compromise?
Cera's Dad: No! We must be firm.
Grandma: Can't we agree on anything.
Littlefoot: Are we all here?
Ducky: [repeated line] Yep, yep, yep. We are all here. Oh, no, we are not! Where's Spike?
Cera: Well, don't ask me. He's not my brother.
Ducky: Oh, Spike! Where are you, little brother? 
Petrie: What that? It sound like monster!
Ducky: Do not worry, Petrie. That is not a monster. That is Spike.
Petrie: Spike?
Ducky: That is his sleeping sounds. Come on, I will show you. See! [laughing]
Littlefoot: [laughing] You're right, Ducky.
Ducky: [pushes Spike] Get up, silly. This is not nap time. This is get up time.
Petrie: [opens Spike's eye] You wake up now, okay, Spike? [falls down]
Petrie: Oh, Spike, up! Spike, down.
Ducky: Spike, no! 
Littlefoot: Are you okay, Petrie?
Petrie: Uh-huh. Spike sure heavy sleeper. 
Littlefoot: We gotta wake him up because it's gonna take all of us to find more water.
Petrie: Water? Yes! Me help find water.
Petrie: Spike, stop! Me no find water yet! 
Littlefoot: Don't worry, Spike. We'll find it. I just know we will.
Cera: We better! BecUse if our parents stay mad any longer, I'm just gonna scream!
Ducky: [laughing] Oh, I will scream too!
Petrie: Petrie good screamer! [imitates screaming]
Littlefoot: [laughs] What about you, Spike?
Petrie: How we find water, Littlefoot?
Littlefoot: We smell for it, silly.
Ducky: [laughing] Oh, yes! Smell for it! With our noses. [laughing] I know how to do that. 
Petrie: No smell so hard, okay, Spike?
Cera: This is serious, Ducky.
Ducky: Oh, yes, Cera, I know! I know.
Cera's Dad: It's not your turn! Now, go on!
Ducky: My sniffer is very, very sniffed out.
Cera: Well, I'm so thirsty I could drink a lake.
Littlefoot: Me too. If we could find one.
Petrie: [sniffing] Funny, me smell water, but me no see water.
Littlefoot: Hey, did you hear a... a splash?
All: Uh-huh.
Littlefoot: Water! There it is! All right!
Ducky: Yeah! Yeah!
Cera: That was so good!
Ducky: Oh, yes, this is the yummiest water ever! It is!
Petrie: And we drink all we want, and no one yell at us! [
Hyp: There they are. And would ya look at what they found for us.
Mutt: [laughing] What is it?
Hyp: Hey, hatchlings. Say bye-bye, water.
Ducky: Why? Is it going somewhere?
Hyp: No, but you are!
Nod: This is our water now!
Mutt: So give it back.
Petrie: Give back? But it already in my tummy!
Ducky: But do you not want to share?
Hyp: We don't share with anybody, do we?
Mutt: Uh, no, uh-huh.
Nod: Nobody.
Hyp: So I'm warning you, small fries, if you tell anybody else about this water, you'll be very, very sorry!
Littlefoot: We're telling! And you better not try and stop us!
Littlefoot: Hurry!
Hyp: Get 'em! We can't let 'em tell!
Cera: What am I running for? I'm not afraid of those... Hey, what's the big idea?
Petrie: No time to fight bullies, Cera! We go tell grown-ups about water.
Nod: Where'd they go, Hyp? Huh? Where'd they go?
Hyp: If I knew, I wouldn't be lookin' for 'em.
Nod: Yeah!
Mutt: Yeah, dummy!
All: Uh-oh!
Littlefoot: Keep running!
Cera: Are they still after us?
Petrie: Me no know. Me too scared to look!
Ducky: Spike, you're going the wrong way!
Ducky: Hurray! Now you are going the right way.
Cera: Why are going this way anyway, Littlefoot? We're tired and this way is hard!
Littlefoot: Because, this is the shortest way back to the grown-ups. And it will be harder for the bullies to follow us.
Ducky: It is the Mysterious Beyond!
Petrie: And it has water. Whole bunches!
Littlefoot: The flying rocks must've caused slides in the Mysterious Beyond too.
Cera: Yeah, and those dumb slides blocked up the water!
Littlefoot: Come on! The grown-ups will know what to do!
Petrie: Bad weather for flying.
Littlefoot: Look out!
Littlefoot: Back this way! I know another path.
Cera's Dad: That's enough. You've had your share for today.
Grandpa: The threehorn is getting far too bossy.
Grandma: I agree.
Littlefoot: Grandpa! Grandma!
Cera: Daddy!
Littlefoot: Fire! There's fire in the valley!
Grandpa: Are you sure, Littlefoot?
Littlefoot: Yes, Grandpa! It's near two boulder pass!
Grandpa: Yes, we can see the fire signs from here.
Clubtail: Two boulder pass?
Kosh: That's close to here.
Clubtail: We must run!
Grandpa: Calm yourselves! We will lead you to safety.
Cera's Dad: No, I will. They'll be better off following me. [walks down] This way!
Grandpa: But you're heading downwind where the fire will surely spread. We must go upwind of the fire.
Cera's Dad: Do as you will, long neck. But Cera and I go this way. Come, Cera.
Cera: But, Daddy!
Cera's Dad: The other can do what they want. But you are my daughter, and you will do as I say! 
Cera: I'm... I'm... I'm going with my father. 
Ducky: I do not feel good about this. Oh, no, I do not.
Littlefoot: Grandma! Grandpa! Can't you stop them?
Grandpa: I have to go after them.
Grandma: Yes. Littlefoot, you come with me. We'll lead the others to safety.
Littlefoot: But what about everybody else in the valley, Grandma? What will happen to them?
Grandma: They'll use the escape routes closest to them. Now come! Everyone, follow me! Children first!
Cera's Dad: Cera! 
Littlefoot: Grandma, what's wrong?
Grandma: The smoke is too thick. You'll have to lead.
Littlefoot: But I...
Littlefoot: Follow me, everyone! [
Dinosaur 1: [Where is he?
Dinosaur 2: I can't see!
Ducky: Littlefoot, the grown-ups cannot see good. They cannot.
Littlefoot: But they can hear. Follow my voice! Stay close to the one in front of you! Keep your heads down! It's not much further!
Cera: Are you sure this is right, daddy?
Cera's Dad: Of course I'm sure!
Cera: [screaming] Daddy!
Cera's Dad: This way, Cera!
Cera's Dad: No!
Cera: We're trapped!
Grandpa: Threehorns! Over here!
Cera's Dad: Hurry, Cera!
Cera's Dad: Are you all right, Cera?
Cera: [panting] Yes, Daddy.
Cera's Dad: Come.
Littlefoot: Grandpa!
Grandma: Oh, you made it! I was so worried.
Grandpa: I'm fine, dear, really.
Grandpa: How is everyone else?
Grandma: Our group got here safely, thanks to Littlefoot.
Ducky: Oh, yes! Thanks to Littlefoot!
Grandma: We are all very lucky.
Cera's Dad Lucky? How can you say we are lucky when our valley burns? We are without water, and now we are without a home. All is lost.
Grandma: All is not lost, my friend. You still have Cera. And you are still here, able to take care for her.
Cera's Dad: Well, you are right. Thank you, long neck.
Male Stegosaurus: But the threehorn speaks the truth!
Ducky's Mom: We're doomed!
Clubtail: We'll never be able to go back to the Great Valley!
Ducky: Never go back to the Great Valley? Oh, no!
Littlefoot: The water! We forgot to tell them about the water! Grandma! Grandpa! We found water!
Grandpa: Water?
Grandma: Where, Littlefoot?
Littlefoot: It's stuck.
Petrie: Behind the Thundering Falls.
Cera: The flying rocks did it.
Ducky: They did!
Grandma: Which means the wated is trapped in the Mysterious Beyond.
Stegosaurus: [gasping] The Mysterious Beyond? We can't go there. It's dangerous!
Cera's Dad: Of course it's dangerous. But no place is safe now. We must go and free the water.
Grandpa: But such a huge gathering place of water will attract other creatures besides ourselves. In the Mysterious Beyond there will be Sharpteeth.
Dinosaur 3: Sharpteeth!
Dinosaur 4: [gasping] It's too dangerous!
Ducky: I do not like Sharpteeth. Oh, no! Their teeth are too sharp.
Grandma: Still, we must do something. We must come up with a plan to free the water.
Cera's Dad: I have a plan!
Kosh: I hope it's better than your fire escape plan.
Grandma: Please! This is no time to argue.
Cera's Dad: At least I had a plan.
Grandma: Stop! You're acting like children!
Petrie: Huh! We no act like that!
Ducky's Dad: I have a plan too!
Dinosaur 6: Mine's better!
Hyp: I'd sure like to get to that water first, before the rest of those dummies go slobbering in it!
Nod: [gulping] But you heard the grown-ups, Hyp. What about Sharpteeth?
Hyp: What about 'em?
Nod: Well, you tell him, Mutt.
Mutt: Huh? Well, uh, well, uh, they're bad, uh, yeah! And scary too! [to Hyp] Come on! You're just as afraid of them as we are!
Hyp: [grabs Mutt] Me? I'm not afraid of anything!
Nod: But you are!
Hyp: Bet I'm not!
Nod: You were afraid of those big flying rocks!
Hyp: I was not! I just ran 'cause you guys did. I... I didn't want you to feel stupid.
Nod: Well, then prove it!
Hyp: All right, I will. I'm getting me some tasty water, and you babies can stay here.
Nod: Well, I'm not a baby.
Mutt: Yeah, me neither.
Nod: Uh... Uh, Hyp! Wait!
Mutt: Uh, yeah! For us!
Cera's Dad: We must act now!
Grandpa: We must not act rashly.
Cera: They are so dumb! Didn't they hear what the grown-ups said about Sharpteeth?
Littlefoot: I guess not.
Cera: Well, if they get eaten, it'll just serve them right!
Ducky: Cera! That is not nice!
Cera: I don't care. They deserve it!
Littlefoot: I don't know, you guys. Maybe we should do something.
Cera: Like what?
Littlefoot: Like, tell their parents where they went?
Cera: All of our parents are too busy arguing.
Grandpa: Your plan is too dangerous!
Cera's Dad: Yours is no better!
Kosh: Then listen to mine.
Dinosaur: Yours? Don't be silly!
Littlefoot: Then, maybe we should go stop them.
Cera: Stop them?
Petrie: Us?
Ducky: They hate us! They will not listen!
Littlefoot: I know they're bigger.
Cera: But definitely not smarter!
Littlefoot: Still, we have to try.
Petrie: But why?
["Kids Like Us" begins]
Littlefoot: [singing] They have feelings just like we do. They have problems too. We think because they're big, they don't, but they do. They're louder and they're stronger, and they make a bigger fuss. But way down deep inside I think. They're kids like us. They have parents just like ours who teel them what to do, they have feet and tails and horns, and scales and noses too. And when the earth is shaking, they run and hide because even if they think they're tough. They're still kids like us.
Cera: It's just too dangerous, Littlefoot!
Ducky: Yes, it is!
Cera: And they're too mean!
Petrie: Very, very mean!
Littlefoot: [singing] Maybe when you're bigger, you think you should pretend you're not afraid of scary things that you don't need a friend. But they're just kids in trouble. They need someone to trust if we can bring them home, show them they're not alone, that they're just kids.
All: [singing] Kids like us.
Littlefoot: I just have to try and stop them! You guys do what you want. 
Spike: Hyp.
Cera: Last one after Littlefoot's a scaredy-egg!
Petrie: Me no scaredy-egg!
Ducky: Wait for us! We're not scaredy-eggs, either!
Nod: Are you sure this is the right way to the water, Hyp?
Hyp: Sure, I'm sure. I'm, uh, just taking us this special way, so we don't run into any stupid Sharpteeth.
Mutt: Wait for me!
Mutt: Come on, guys! Wait! 
Hyp: Stop whining, Mutt! This is easy! Well, what do ya know! A little watering hole just for me!
Hyp: You guys can have some, if I leave any! Whoo-hoo! Water! Huh? I'm sinking! I'm sinking! Don't just stand there! Pull me out!
Mutt: Oh, yeah!
Nod: Uh, right! What do we do?
Mutt: I don't know. What do ya think we should do?
Hyp: Somebody do something! Help! Help!
Littlefoot: That's Hyp!
Hyp: Get me out! Get me out!
Nod: You pull him out!
Mutt: What if I get stuck?
Nod: I'll pull you out.
Mutt: What if you get stuck?
Littlefoot: He's stuck in a tar pit! Stop moving, Hyp! It'll make you sink faster!
Littlefoot: We'll have to pull him out! Everybody line up!
Petrie: Okay, when me say pull, pull!
Hyp: Hey! You're squishing me! Sorry.
Petrie: Uh-oh! 
Ducky: Petrie! Pull!
Nod: [to Hyp] Are ya... Are ya okay, Hyp? Are ya?
Hyp: [trying to clean the tar off of himself] Of course I'm okay! I was never not okay!
Petrie: He a big, fat fibber!
Cera: Yeah! We helped you, and you know it!
Hyp: I don't need anybody's help! Not now! Not ever!
Ducky: But everyone needs help sometime. They do. Help!
Cera's Dad: There they are!
Grandpa: Littlefoot? This is no time to go exploring! Didn't you realize you wandered into the Mysterious Beyond?
Littlefoot: We weren't exploring, Grandpa. We were trying to stop the bullies... Uh, I mean Hyp and his friends, or they might've gotten hurt.
[Hyp's Father grabs Hyp by the tail and confronts him.]
Hyp's Father: Hyp! Here we are chasing after you, when we should be finding a way to free the water! I thought I told you to stay where it was safe! Don't look at me that way! I'm your father, and I know what's best for you!
Cera's Dad: Yelling is no way to teach your child what is right, or to show that you care.
Hyp: How would you know?
Cera's Dad: I know because... Because I have a daughter, and I yell at her, too much. Especially when I'm worried for her safety.
Cera: You don't have to worry about me, Daddy.
Cera's Dad: If you always react with anger, that's all your son will know, and that's all he'll be able to express to others.
Hyp: What?
Cera's Dad: I know now that we can't live together that way, with such anger between us. Our kids found water because they worked together. Now we must work together too.
Grandpa: At last we all agree.
Hyp: Ahh! What's the matter with you?
Mutt: [crying] Nothin', except I think we're in trouble.
Hyp: Yeah, so what else is new?
Mutt: [pointing at Velociraptor] That!
Mutt: And that!
Grandpa: Children, stay behind me!
Cera's Dad: And me.
Kosh: Count us in too.
Grandpa: [Littlefoot! You and your friends run to safety!
Hyp's father: Through here, kids! Follow me!
Littlefoot: Grandpa!
Hyp: Don't look back! Come on!
Grandpa: We can't let them pass!
Cera's Dad: They've gone after the children!
Hyp's Father: Stay close! We're going to get help!
Cera's Dad: Stop where you are, Sharpteeth!
Cera: They're leaving.
Hyp's Father: Yes, but why?
Mutt: Something bad is happening up there.
Hyp: Stop, you babies!
Hyp: [runs by Nod and Mutt] Me first!
Hyp's Father: Hyp!
Littlefoot: Look!
Cera: Oh, no! Daddy!
Littlefoot: Grandpa!
Hyp's Father: You kids get to the top of that dam where it's safer!
Littlefoot: But what about the grown-ups?
Hyp's Father: Just get out of here! I'll handle this.
Cera: Come on!
Nod: [laughing] Look at your dad, risking his neck.
Mutt: Yeah, what a dope.
Hyp: He is not! Dad! [singing] Nah, nah, can't get me.
Hyp's Father: Son?
Littlefoot: The grown-ups are all right!
Hyp: I'm outta here! [walks up]
Petrie: That serve Sharptooth right. He bigger bully than you.
Hyp: Hey, watch it!
Littlefoot: Come on! Let's get 'em with more rocks!
Hyp: Are you nuts? By the time you budge that, those Sharpteeth will be picking their teeth with our bones!
Littlefoot: We've gotta try!
Hyp: Move over, hatchlings!
Hyp: This isn't gonna work!
Littlefoot: Hyp!
Cera: Oh, forget it, Littlefoot. He's a creep!
Hyp: Who you calling names? Now get in there and help, you creeps!
Hyp: Okay, everybody! Let's get 'em!
Littlefoot: We did it!
Grandpa: [to the Velociraptors] Leave our children alone!
Littlefoot: We've got to stop the fighting!
Cera: Then let's squish those Sharpteeth once and for all! 
Littlefoot: Huh? Look! Water! We unblocked the water!
Grandpa: Run!
Grandpa: Looks like you and your friends saved the day, Littlefoot.
Littlefoot: I think we all did, Grandpa.
Ducky: [giggling] Spike likes you now. He does.
Narrator: And so, with the return of the water, the Great Valley dinosaurs were able to go home again. : But the home they returned to wasn't the same. Fire had destroyed much of their green food. But instead of giving in to despair, the dinosaurs divided into groups to find the spots where green food still grew.
Littlefoot: Hey, everybody! We found more!
Hyp's Father: Did you hear that? More green food!
Kosh: How wonderful!
Hyp's Father: Where? I mean... [clears throat] Where, son?
Hyp: In a little canyon not far from here, Pop. If we share, there should be enough for everyone.
Nod: You feelin' okay, Hyp? You're talkin' about sharing!
Mutt: Uh, yeah, sharing!
Hyp: I know that! Not sharing is for scaredy-eggs! Right?
Both: Right.
Ducky: Sharing is good. [repeated line] Yep, yep, yep!
Littlefoot: Come on! Everybody follow us!
Narrator: And so, as it turned out, the dinosaurs traveled from green spot to green spot, eating their fill, each helping the others to find what they needed, each learning the special kind of joy, which comes from giving to others.
[As the narrator says his line, Littlefoot pulls a tree star off a tree star tree. Littlefoot passes the tree star to Mutt, who passes it to Hyp, who passes it to Nod, then to Cera, to Ducky, and to Petrie. Finally, Petrie passes it to Spike, who eats it. Then everyone laughs. The scene cuts to the grown-ups, who are also grazing on leaves.]
Narrator: And in the years to come, this story of sharing was told over and over again, until it became known as: "The Time of the Great Giving".
