Post by bunniefuu »

Big Tree City Rescue, let's go.

Big Tree City,

Big Tree City rescue, let's go!

Big Tree City,

Big Tree City Rescue, let's go.

Let's go!

Let's go!

Good day.

Oh, cats of blooms.

Happy birthday, Major Prickles!

This is for you.

For me?

Oh, you shouldn't have.

Oh.

It's a cane, cause you're old.

We also got you a cushion

and a sleeping mask,

because you take so many naps.

You shouldn't have. Seriously.

Wait till you see what else we got you.

T-da!

A birthday cake!

Why is it so big?

So we can fit all the candles on?

How old do you think I am?

Six, teen, thousand?

Oh, pecky! It's rude to mention.

How old and old person is?

Oh, come now!

I'm not old.

Am I?

Yes, you are.

Yeah, you grow when you bend down

and you take forever

to get out of a chair.

That doesn't mean anything.

When I need to, I can still run, jump,

and somersault with the best of them.

Right! I'll show you!

This is Big Three City News Service.

I'm Edward Lister, and

it's all going swimmingly.

Thanks to Sergeant Prickles a big,

Tree City Rescue, here he is, saving

little Tippy Timkins drop a pole.

This destifying tree-top rescue is

no problem for this heroic hedgehog.

And when a ridiculously huge

Cartwell threatens to crush

everything in sight, Prickles

is on hand to save the day.

Thank you, Sergeant Prickles,

Big Tree City's top rescuer.

That was awesome.

Yes, yes, thank you very much.

Wow, Major. I didn't know how much.

How quick you used to be.

Used to be?

He was so powerful.

Back then.

Like a different hedgehog.

He can't move like that anymore.

Because of his hip.

Back then, hip!

I might have a few grey whiskers,

but I'm as capable and alert as ever.

Oh, oh, oh.

Big Tree City Rescue,

ready to rescue you

To the briefing room!

Okay, team, there's a pet snail

stuck up a tree in Capitol Park.

We need to get it off the branch as

quickly and as safely as possible.

Let's chop the tree down.

No, no, no, no, no, squirt

it out with the hose.

Investigate why it's up

there in the first place.

A snail in a tree, suspicious.

No, we should chop it down.

Investigate.

You need to lodge

Down, or them.

Okay, listen up. This is the plan.

Stripes will cord off the area.

Flame can use her cherry

picker to reach the branch,

and Pecky will climb out

and retrieve the snail.

Kit will need you on medical duty.

Excellent plan, Major.

I'll come along too, uh, to supervise.

Now, let's move out!

Woo!

Okay, the snail is located on the other

side of the Fun Zone obstacle course.

It'll be easiest to

go around it. Come on.

Forget that. I'll just

cut straight through.

But the obstacle course will take

longer. It's full of obstacles.

Think I'm too old to save a snail.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Let's go around.

Uh-uh.

Ow!

Oh!

Here I come.

Oh!

Oh!

Got it.

Prickles will save you!

Here I come!

Wait! I will no!

Oh!

Uh-uh!

There you go, little buddy!

Great work, team!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Major, are you okay?

It's my heart, Kit. It's broken.

Oh, I'll get the defibrillator.

No, kid.

I think I might be.

old, useless. People are laughing at me.

Oh, that's not true.

Funny old hedgehog!

I've always been a hedgehog of

action. Am I still up to the job?

Oh, no!

Oh, I'll get it!

Hey, ooh!

Look!

Look!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Prickles!

Are you there?

Oh.

This is Prickles.

Major, where have you

been? We were worried.

I've been doing some thinking, and I've

decided to retire from

Big Tree City rescue.

But why?

This birthday has shown me that I'm

no longer the rescuer this team needs.

It's not an easy decision,

but it's for the best.

No!

Don't go!

Good luck, everyone.

It has been an honor.

Happy birthday to me.

Hmm.

Funny old head talk.

Oh, Prickles can't

retire. He's our leader.

But he said it was for the

best, and he's always right.

Let's just return the birthday cake.

There's not going to be

any celebrating today.

Which is the exit for

the giant cake bakery?

First exit!

No, second exit.

What?

Hang on!

It's the first one!

Second!

Make up your minds!

Left here!

Oh, right!

Nice one!

Now we've gone past it!

That's it!

Can someone please just take charge?

Oh!

Mommy, can I get sprinkles on mine?

Awesome!

Right, who was supposed

to tie the cake down?

I thought Splash was going to do it.

I thought Tritch was going to do it.

Why do I have to do it?

It doesn't matter now.

Let's just stop it!

I'll knock it over!

Me too!

Blame!

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

It's heading for

Capital Park!

I'll winch the cake.

I'll warn the citizens!

Ah! Strikes! You're in the way!

More tea for you, Major.

What do I do now?

I've been a rescuer for years.

I could take up gardening, I suppose.

Prune my roses.

I'd have to get some roses and a garden.

It's rolling straight for the fun zone!

Oh, this is a disaster!

We've never had to stop a

giant runaway cake before.

An old-fashioned,

Giant runaway cake rescue.

I wish Major Prickles was here.

He'd tell us what to do.

But I'm old and too

slow. What could I do?

Of course!

Come in, team! This is your leader!

Prickles!

Get to the Fun Zone on the double!

We've got a birthday cake to stop!

On my signal, kit!

Wait for it!

Wait for it!

Now!

Flib! Give me all you got!

Give me all you got!

Give me all you got!

That was terrific, Major.

You knew exactly what to do.

I've learned what to do

from years of rescuing.

So will you and you're older.

Yay!

This calls for a real

birthday celebration!

Let's party!

Yes, but I want to do it my way.

Yes.

Good morning, Big Tree

City. I'm Ted Lister.

And I'm Pam Sprout.

And this is BTCN.

Over to Moose for the Traffic Report.

Busy, Rwriters, Rudy, busy

this day, traffic, uh, my man.

Thanks, Moose.

Ted, I've always wondered what it would be

like to be part of Big Tree City Rescue.

Well, one to know more, because

this week I'll be finding

and I'll be taking you with me.

Sounds like great television, Ted.

Doesn't it?

I can't wait to discover the real

heroes doing their really heroic things.

Oh, who

Hmm.

Making an insertion.

Oh, plaster's present and correct.

Oh, I can't wait to

show Ted Lister what it

means to be a member of

Big Tree City Rescue.

Me too! I'm gonna show

Ted my racquetball!

Yeah, what about my firetrak horn?

What about my super duper sucky plunger?

It can plunge anything!

Yes!

And my favorite thermometer.

What?

It's not a competition.

Remember, we're all part of the team,

an equally important part of the team.

What matters is that

we all work together.

This just in.

Me.

It's dead!

It's dead.

Hello, Big Tree City rescuers.

Never before, have cameras

touched on the inner workings of

this famous building and these

even more famous team members.

I can't wait to show you

what the team can do.

That sounds excellent. Where do we start?

I can do 18 donuts!

A truly amazing display of a digger

driving in circles really quickly.

I can do press-ups one-handed!

I have a plunger!

It's greater TV than we ever anticipated.

What could be more exciting?

I can measure

Emergency!

Everyone to the briefing room!

Now that's more exciting!

This is the perfect way

for us to show Ted List

the broad range of emergencies

we have to deal with.

Mr. Dishcloth's trolley

has rolled away again.

This looks super urgent.

I'll go, Major. Might need a digger.

Or a wrecking ball.

Yes, I'll go too in

case something explodes.

And me.

Marvelous. Don't you love

their enthusiasm, Ted?

I love it.

I'll come too in case

someone needs medicine.

Oh, well, as you wish. Move out!

Woo!

There's absolute chaos

in the streets today,

as a rogue shopping

cart is barreling away.

Here comes Big Tree City Rescue now!

How will they ever stop it?

Well, um, that's it!

Rescue done!

Sometimes it's the simple

Wait, we're not done!

We must return it to its owner!

I'm on it!

No, I'm on it!

So, no!

I got the groceries!

Incoming!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Trolly returned!

Good job, team!

It's on!

I'm in this one!

I'm in this one.

I stop the trolley and save the bananas.

There's absolute chaos

in the streets today

as a rogue shopping

cart is barreling away.

Here I come.

We must return it to its owner.

Huh? Where's it again?

Zodo!

I catch the groceries here!

Incoming!

Woo!

Woo!

Woo!

Incredible scenes today.

All thanks to the dynamic

heroes of Big Tree City Rescue.

I'm Ted Lister.

Go-b-go-boh!

Marvelous stuff, team!

Looks like you really put on a show!

Thanks, Major.

Didn't see much of you, Kit.

Better luck next time, eh?

I was there. I just

He left me out.

It's all about them.

How come they're on camera

the whole time and not

You, Stripes.

Ted's making a TV show.

Audiences don't want

the boring guys like us.

Ha! I'm not boring.

Stripes is right, you know.

Becky, Flames, Splash.

They're dynamic.

They chat around doing stuff.

I do stuff.

Just the other week I was

organized in the aspirin

by use by date.

Ted wants great TV.

And that's SmashBush!

Bang Wallop.

Becky does everything at maximum.

That's why Ted likes her so much.

Maximum, you say.

In this scenario, I'm

performing CPR of this patient.

If he was alive, I would

have saved him by now.

Uh, let's go and see what Pecky's up to.

I heard a big noise

in the garage earlier.

Wait, I have more to show you.

Yes?

Uh, a stethoscope.

Does it explode?

No, it

Oh.

Team to the briefing room.

We have an emergency of sorts.

I'll handle this, Major.

Oh, okay. It's just a

Sounds like a job for someone with a

crazy ambulance and a wacky sidekick.

I'll take stripes.

Well, all right then.

Move!

Come in?

Hold on to your hats.

Make sure the camera.

Okay, okay, calm down to your hats.

Make sure the camera's on me.

Okay, okay, calm down people.

Why's the problem here?

My ball's stuck.

Thank goodness it's

not serious or dynamic.

Oh, well, folks, not every rescue

can be as exciting as yesterday's.

Wait!

This is a serious situation.

Um, the ball could fall in this

trolley, and then roll up down in!

Another card.

Just like yesterday.

Well, it seems like things are

very much under control here.

Here we go.

Wait!

Sorry, I thought I saw something.

You're making this into

a big deal, aren't you?

It is a big deal!

I just don't want things

to escalate out of control.

This is all to impress Ted, isn't it?

Ted?

I'm Ted Lister, live on the

scene and Big Tree City.

Oh no.

And with today's rescue, nowhere

near is fun, it's time for me.

Have you lost your mind?

This will be the biggest, most

dynamic TV-friendly rescue ever.

A situation that calls for real

heroes, doing a real rescue.

And how are you going to do that?

I

Don't no.

Whoa!

Uh-huh!

He's heading straight for the river.

Terry, you might want to hop on the back.

Oh!

I escaped the river, but I'm not

crazy about this angle, Terry.

I escaped the river, but

what will happen next?

Stay tuned! I'm Ted Lisser!

Hold on!

Ah!

Kit, you've gone too far!

There's no way we can save Ted now!

I've not gone far enough!

I could smash cars out of the whale,

blast them with a hose,

or use a hose, or use a to

to stop the traffic!

Okay, fine. I can't do

this. I'm not dynamic.

But I know who is.

Pecky, flame, splash!

Ted Lister's in danger

and I need your help!

Jamal, let's go!

Move out!

Oh! Yes!

I'm now hurtling towards the busiest

roundabout in Big Tree City. Am I doomed?

This just in, I'm doomed!

We're too lying!

I'm Ted Lister!

Oh!

He's up! Ah!

Ah!

Whoa!

Big Tree City rescue!

Ready to rescue!

Are you hurt?

I am hurt.

Stand back!

Medic on the scene!

Amazing scenes here at Busy Roundabout,

as your host is saved

by Big Tree City Rescue,

particularly the VTC Medic, Kit.

Thanks, Ted.

Look forward to seeing you

back in six to eight weeks.

Well done, kids!

Yay!

Hi!

Funkey!

I can't wait to use my body again.

I am sorry, by the way, Ted.

No problem, kid. It

made great television.

I'm Ted Lister. This is BTCN. Good night.

I don't know.

You know,

You know,

You

I'm

You

Thank

Thank you.

Thank you.
