It does look stupid, Mom.
Not as stupid as sheep, mind you, but pigs are definitely stupid.
Good heavens! Who are you?
I'm a Large White.
Yes, that's your breed, dear. What's your name?
I don't know.
Well, what did your mother call you to tell you apart from your brothers and sisters?
Our Mom called us all the same.
And what was that, dear?
She called us all "Babe."
[stares at Babe, then goes up to him]
There, there…you've got to be a brave boy, now. I left my mother when I was your age, and my puppies will have to leave me soon. But I'll keep the eyes on you, if you like, just till you find your feet. [Rex shows up, sees Babe] The little pig's a bit low. He's going to sleep with us, just till he finds his feet.
But, Mom, he'll wet the bed?
Shh, listen. [to Babe] If you do want to do anything, you'll go outside, won't you? Good boy.
