## Transcript

Narrator: "Pipsqueak and Braeburn were worried. Spike's recent accident had caused a great deal of trouble, and Hoity Toity was waiting for them with the most important news."

Hoity Toity: "Here is Gilda, the Griffon, who has come to help while Spike is... indisposed."

Pipsqueak: "Please, sir, will she go when Spike comes back, Sir?"

Hoity Toity: "That depends."

Narrator: "Said Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "Meanwhile, however long she stays, I hope you both made her feel welcome and comfortable."

Pipsqueak and Braeburn: "Yes, sir. We'll try, sir."

Narrator: "Said the ponies."

Hoity Toity: "Good. Run along now and show her the library. She will want to rest after her journey."

Narrator: "Gilda was too hard to please. She shuddered at the library"

Gilda: "This is dreadfully smelly. I'm highly sprung, and anything smelly is bad for my swerves."

Narrator: "Next, they tried the filly shed."

Gilda: "This is better,"

Narrator: "Said Gilda,"

Gilda: "But whatever is that rubbish?"

Narrator: "The 'rubbish' turned out to be Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo, who were most offended."

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo: "We won't stay here to be insulted!"

Narrator: "They grumbled.

Pipsqueak and Braeburn had to take them away and spend half the night soothing their hurt feelings.

The ponies woke next morning, feeling very exhausted. Gilda, on the other hand, felt bright and cheerful."

Gilda: "Oooh! Oooh!"

Narrator: "She tooted, as she came out of the yard and back to the station."

Gilda: "Look at me,"

Narrator: "She purred to the passengers."

Gilda: "I'm the latest griffon; highly sprung and right up to date. You won't want Spike's bumpy old Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle now."

Narrator: "The passengers waited for Gilda to start, but not just yet.

She saw that a milk churn was about to be handed to her, and was most indignant."

Gilda: "Do they expect me to carry that?"

Narrator: "She asked rudely."

Gilda's Driver: "Surely,"

Narrator: "Said her driver."

Gilda's Driver: "You can carry one churn."

Gilda: "No I won't!"

Narrator: "Said Gilda."

Gilda: "Pipsqueak can do it! He loves to mess about with changelings."

Narrator: "She began to shudder violently."

Gilda's Driver: "Rubbish!"

Narrator: "Said her driver."

Gilda's Driver: "Come on now, back down!"

Narrator: "Gilda lurched backwards. She was so cross, that she blew a fuse."

Gilda: "Told you!"

Narrator: "She said, and stopped.

Everyone argued with her, but it was no good."

Gilda: "It's fitter's orders."

Narrator: "She scolded."

Passengers: "What is?"

Narrator: "They demanded."

Gilda: "My fitter's a very nice man. He comes every week, and examines me carefully. 'Gilda', He says, 'Never carry ever. You're highly sprung, and carrying is bad for your swerves.'

So that's how this is!"

Narrator: "Finished Gilda."

Stationmaster: "Stuff and nonsense!"

Narrator: "Said the stationmaster."

Shunter: "I can't understand."

Narrator: "Said the shunter."

Shunter: "Whatever made Hoity Toity send us such a frickin' feeble..."

Gilda: "Feeble? Feeble?!"

Narrator: "Spluttered Gilda."

Gilda: "Let me..."

Passengers: "Stop arguing!"

Narrator: "Grumbled the passengers."

Passengers: "We're late already."

Narrator: "So they took away the churn, and Gilda purred away feeling very proud of herself. She could now enjoy her journey."

Gilda: "That's a good story."

Narrator: "She chortled."

Gilda: "I'll do just whatever job I choose, and no more!"

Narrator: "But she said it to herself."
