## Transcript

* George Carlin: Ash walked along the path, thinking about his new friend, Dayton.
* Ash: I hope he's doing better again today.
* George Carlin: Puffed Ash. Yesterday, Dayton had broken the rules and had gotten into serious trouble. The pack was widening the road beneath the old quarry bridge. Dayton and Ephraim were loading Corey's cart. Dust and dirt flew everywhere. Work had never been so much fun. Dayton felt very proud. He worked hard, been very good and followed all the rules. But he was worried Ariene wouldn't let him stay. Mungo was cheerfully clearing rocks. Mungo has a big bucket and a big heart. Sometimes his bucket was too full.
* Corey: Careful, bumbleman!
* Mungo: Sorry.
* George Carlin: Said Mungo cheerfully. Ash couldn't wait to get to the old bridge. He'd knew the pack were working there. He could see how Dayton was doing. Back at the site, Woodruff shouted out...
* Woodruff: Brad, this top soil needs moving, now!
* Dayton: I'll move it!
* George Carlin: Replied Dayton.
* Ephraim: Dayton!
* George Carlin: Cried Ephraim. Before anyone could stop him, Dayton raced under the bridge. He was about to fill his bucket when he remembered Ariene's warning. 'Don't jump in where you don't belong'.
* Dayton: Brad Van Darn.
* George Carlin: He said.
* Dayton: This job is yours, not mine.
* Brad Van Darn: Thank you.
* George Carlin: Brad said politely.
* Satchel: Well done, Dayton.
* George Carlin: Called Satchel.
* Ephraim and Cherry: Yes! Well done, too.
* George Carlin: Chimed Ephraim and Cherry. Dayton beamed proudly. Later, Mungo was moving up at the bridge. His oiler had told him to lower his crane on.
* Mungo: I must be careful, I must be careful, I must be careful.
* George Carlin: Then there was trouble. Mungo didn't lower his hat far enough. It knocked loose the important keystones. The bridge began to crumble. Ash puffed towards the bridge, unaware of the danger ahead.
* Dayton: Ash!
* George Carlin: Cried Dayton. He jumped in and lifted his front loader up against the bridge. He pushed with all his might. Ash saw the flagman. His driver applied the brakes, but it was too late.
* Ash: Cinders and ashes!
* George Carlin: Cried Ash. Dayton didn't let go. Finally, Ash's driver reversed Ash back to safety.
* Stanley: Hold on, Dayton!
* George Carlin: Called Satchel and he rushed off to help. Dayton couldn't hold the bridge any longer.
* Satchel: Are you hurt, Dayton?
* Dayton: I don't think so.
* George Carlin: Ash brought Dayton back to the yard. Dayton was afraid Ariene would be very cross with him. After all, he had jumped in and damaged his arms. But Ariene was impressed.
* Ariene: Congratulations, Dayton!
* George Carlin: She said.
* Ariene: You'd make a mother proud!
* Ash: And a pokemon trainer grateful.
* George Carlin: Ash chuffed.
* Ariene: It's off to the fitters with you tomorrow, Dayton, the staff can't allow a chinchou trainer with bent arms.
* Dayton: You mean I can stay?
* Ariene: I wouldn't have it any other way.
* George Carlin: Ariene grinned.
* Satchel: We're a cracking crew!
* George Carlin: Laughed Satchel.
* Cherry: And all much better for Dayton being here.
* George Carlin: Said Cherry.
* Ephraim: Welcome to the pack, Dayton!
* George Carlin: Cheered Ephraim. Dayton was so happy he couldn't think of anything. So he just revved his engine and bounced his bucket. As Ash steamed towards Tidmouth Sheds he was very happy.
* Ash: Yes.
* George Carlin: He said.
* Ash: Welcome to the pack, Dayton.
