A scene from Watership Down 1978
Bigwig

Hyzenthlay.

Hyzenthlay

Sir?

Bigwig

I'd like to talk with you.

Hyzenthlay

I'm in the Mark and under your orders, sir.

Bigwig

Do you remember a pale grey rabbit called Holly you helped escape some while ago?

Hyzenthlay

You've made a mistake, sir.

Bigwig

Listen, Hyzenthlay. Listen carefully. I'm from a warren where life is free. Where you can do is as you wish. I've come to bring you all out of Efrafa.

Hyzenthlay

You might be a spy, sent by the Council.

Bigwig

You know I'm not. Will you join us? And persuade your friends as well, trust me. My friends are not far away.

Hyzenthlay

[Voice is breaking]

My courage, my... spirit is so much less than it was.

Bigwig

We can escape Efrafa. Believe me.

Hyzenthlay

Yes... I think I do.
