Littlefoot
When will we get there?
Littlefoot's Mother: The Bright Circle will pass over us many times, and we must follow it each day until it touches the ground.
Littlefoot
Have you ever seen the Great Valley?
Littlefoot's Mother: No.
Littlefoot
Well, then, how do you know it's really there?
Littlefoot's Mother: Some things you see with your eyes, others you see with your heart.
Littlefoot
Oh, I can't understand, Mother.
Littlefoot's Mother: You will, my son. You will.
Littlefoot
Mother! Mother! [grunts] Mother, where are you? [gasps] Mother! Please, get up.
Littlefoot's Mother: I'm not sure, I can, Littlefoot.
Littlefoot
Yes, you can. Get up.
Littlefoot's Mother: Dear, sweet Littlefoot, do you remember the way to the Great Valley?
Littlefoot
I guess so, but, why do I have to know? You're going to be with me.
Littlefoot's Mother: I'll be with you, even if you can't see me.
Littlefoot
What do you mean if I can't see you? I can always see you.
Littlefoot's Mother: Littlefoot, let your heart guide you. It whispers. So, listen closely...
Littlefoot
Mother? Mother?
R Rooter
[Littlefoot trips, slides down, and accidentally bumps into Rooter like-mole]
Hey! What's going on here? [hears Littlefoot crying] What's your problem? You are not hurt.
Littlefoot
[tearfully]
It's not fair! She should have known better. That was a Sharptooth. It's all her fault.
R Rooter
All whose fault?
Littlefoot
Mother's.
R Rooter
[soon understands why Littlefoot is crying]
Oh. I see. I see.
Littlefoot
Why did I wander so far from home?
R Rooter
Oh, it's not your fault. It's not your mother's fault. Now you pay close attention to Old Rooter.
Littlefoot
Yes... but...
R Rooter
It is nobody's fault. The Great Circle of Life has begun. But you see, not all of us arrive together at the end.
Littlefoot
What'll I do? I miss her so much.
R Rooter
And you'll always miss her, but she'll always be with you, as long as you remember the things she taught you. In a way, you'll never be apart, for you are still a part of each other.
Littlefoot
My tummy hurts.
R Rooter
Well that too will go in time, Little Mate. Only in time. [exits]
P Petrie
[to Littlefoot]
You've got a nice flat head, Flathead.
Littlefoot
[exasperated]
The name isn't Flathead. The name is [enunciating] LIT-TLE-FOOT!
P Petrie
[gasps]
Littlefoot?
Littlefoot
Are you just gonna stay up there?
Littlefoot
Well, you can't! You are tearing my treestar!
Ducky
It's very special; very! his mother gave it to him. She did.
P Petrie
Ooh. Mother present. Very important. [rolling up the treestar and holding it over one shoulder] I stay here, keep safe. Not let nobodies touch! [begins marching back and forth on Littlefoot's head]
Ducky
Yeah, Petrie! You keep it safe! Yep, yep, yep!
Littlefoot
Nope, nope, nope. I'm not a carrier. So get off! [Petrie clings on] You are a flyer! Now start flying!
Littlefoot
Come on, Cera, Sharptooth is dead. He fell down into the big underground.
Cera
And that's where he met me.
Ducky
Oh. Dear brave, Cera.
P Petrie
Dear brave, Cera.
Cera
Yes, I am brave.
Littlefoot
Sharptooth is dead!
Cera
My father told me that flatheads had very small brains.
Littlefoot
Come on, Cera! We got green food.
Cera
I can get my OWN green food! [attempts to hit a tree, but no treestars come down, so Littlefoot helpfully drops some for her] You see, I can take care of myself; all by myself. I'm not afraid to be alone, I know my way to go, AND...I'm not afraid of the Sharptooth... I hope that he doesn't eat any of you!
Littlefoot
Oh, you can't quit now. What if the Great Valley's just over the top of these rocks?
Narrator
Though they were sore-stumped and tired, Littlefoot urged them on. He'd never seen the Great Valley, but his heart told him they were close. Surely, at the top, they'd behold it finally...
Cera
[They reached the top of the cliff to find the Great Valley, but they find just rocks] [shouting at Littlefoot]
THIS IS YOUR GREAT VALLEY?! You're CRAZY! I'm. Leaving.
Littlefoot
Cera, we have to keep following the Bright Circle!
Cera
I'm taking the easy way for once.
Littlefoot
But it's the WRONG WAY.
Cera
Who says?
Littlefoot
My mother.
Cera
Then, she was just a stupid Longneck, too.
Littlefoot
[gasped and enraged]
TAKE THAT BACK!
Cera
NEVER!
Littlefoot
TAKE IT BACK!
Cera
NO!!!
[Enraged by Cera's insult, Littlefoot tackles Cera and the fight begins]
Littlefoot
[about the Sharptooth; as he and his friends are in the lake]
Let's get rid of him once and for all.
Ducky
What will we do?
Littlefoot
Look, we'll coax him to the deep end of the pond. He can't swim with those scrawny arms. Me and Spike will go up and push that big rock on top of his head, and then he'll fall off into the water.
Littlefoot's Mother: [to Littlefoot, in cloud form and ghost appearance] Littlefoot...
Littlefoot
Mother!
Littlefoot's Mother: Littlefoot...?
Littlefoot
I have tried to do what you told me. [sniffles] But it is just too heard. Great. Now, I am never going to find the Great Valley. [the cloud begins to fall apart] Mother...? Mother...? [tries to run after the cloud] DON'T GO, MOTHER! DON'T GO!
[The cloud leads him through a tunnel, then vanishes, to reveal a sunlit oasis surrounded by mountains] .
Littlefoot
The Great Valley! Cera, Spike, Ducky, Petrie! Over here!
Cera
Littlefoot! You found it!
Ducky
Yep, yep, yep!
