[arrives Copper's house after he got fired and Tod's fault]

Copper?

[saw Dixie]

Dixie? What are you doin' here?

[tells Copper the truth about her plan]

I just thought you should know that blowin' your cover was my idea. Not Tod's. I guess I just lost sight of what's really important. And, darlin', I'm awful sorry. He never wanted to hurt you. He just wanted you to be his friend again. Well... That's what I came to say.
[Copper realizes his mistake for blaming Tod back at the fair and thinks he owes Tod an apology]
