A scene from The Fox and the Hound 1981
Dinky

Good work, Boomer. We've got him this time. Shh! I think he's in there.

Big Mama

Whew! Am I glad I found you boys. There's no time to lose. I need your help. Now come on. Come on.

Dinky

Let's go, Boomer. Come on.

Boomer

Yeah, but... Oh, shucks. Oh, poor little guy.

Big Mama

Don't you worry now. We're going to find someone to look after you.

Dinky

Hmm. Hmm. Hey, I think I got an idea. [Boomer chuckles] OK, Boomer, now you know what to do.

Boomer

Yeah, leave it to me. Leave it to me.

Widow Tweed

Who is it? Well, I was sure I heard someone knocking. [gasps] Oh, dear! My laundry! Oh, here! Stop it! Oh, you pesky birds! Will you come back here? Oh, stop! Well, I wonder what got into those birds. Well, bless my soul! Why, it's a baby fox. Oh. Hello, little fella. I wonder where its mother is. Come on, now. I'm not going to harm you. Now, now. Oh, isn't that? Oh, my, my. You're a feisty little rascal, aren't you? There, there, now. Calm down. No, I just can't leave you out here all alone. Oh, isn't he darling? Now, not so fast. Now, now, not so fast. Oh, my. You're such a little toddler. Say, that's what I'm going to call you. Tod. You know, Tod, I'm not going to be so lonesome anymore.

Amos Slade
[to Chief]

I got a surprise for you, Chief, old boy. Now, now, now, take it easy. Well, how's this for a hunting dog? He's just a little runt now, but he'll grow. You may as well get used to him, Chief. He's for you to look after from now on.

Widow Tweed
[to Tod; Abigail angrily mooing]

Tod, stop pesterin' Abigail. [to Abigail] Abigail, you're going to have to be patient with Tod. He's one of the family now. Oh, of course. [as she is milking Abigail] Now I know. I declare, I never will get my chores done. [to Tod] Oh, mercy! Tod?! Tod, stop it! Abigail! Abigail! Oh, no! There goes my milk! OH, NO! [to Abigail] Easy, easy, Abigail. Steady, old girl. Steady. There, there. Tod, you come here. I said come here! Just look what you've done. Now, don't try to butter me up. Oh, Tod, I just can't stay angry with you. You little imp. Now run along and play. Go on. And try to stay out of mischief.

Young Tod

Hey, it's Dinky and Boomer. Maybe they wanna play.

Dinky

Is this it, Boomer?

Boomer

Sure, Dinky. This is the place. I never forget a tree. I never forget a tree.

Dinky

He won't get away this time. Hold it, Boomer. I think I hear something.
