Original subtitles

When the willows say the soft blue tune Follow my voice wherever it leads

From mountains through valleys to deep rolling seas

The golden printings of the breeze

September the 12th

Oh, what a week! What excitement!

What triumph!

What tragedy!

Boo!

Mm. I think I'll cross tragedy out.

Was my folly?

Having been to London to see the scientific wonders

at the Victoria and Albert Museum,

I was informing my friends of the Marvels that I had seen.

And all worked by the force of gravity invented by Isaac Walton.

No. Gravity.

Badger means that it was Isaac Newton who studied the force of gravity.

Isaac Walton wrote about fishing.

Oh, really?

And he didn't invent it.

He discovered it.

Oh, nothing of this short.

Oh, look, he looked.

He dropped an apple off the Eddy Stone light as in it hit,

James walked on the edge.

What shouted at Scallobuff and jumped out of the bath

and went and made the first line bulb while Newton didn't grab a key.

Look, it's no laughing matter.

You're right, Toad.

It's a tragedy.

Well, a tragic comedy.

Hey.

Never mind.

It was Galileo who dropped a weight and a feather from the leaning tower.

Archimedes shouted eureka.

What made steam trains?

And Thomas Edison invented the light bulb.

Watch.

James walked.

Apart from that, you were absolutely right.

Well, he didn't get a lot of facts, him.

All of them wrong.

Anyway, who went to the museum?

You on me.

Heh heh heh heh heh heh.

Yeah, who's a stupid one?

That, Robert Bert.

He's messed up, looming Toad.

Aww, he should be easy enough to con.

He is, Bert.

He is.

But I have to say, Toad, that I'm very pleased you did.

No.

Oh.

Oh, no.

Somewhere buried inside your folly is the desire to learn.

Yeah.

All the same I wish I'd seen it.

Oh, yes, Moolie.

It was absolutely wonderful.

Together, you know, man and machine will conquer the mysteries of the universe.

As it says in the catalog.

No, I just thought of it.

Nothing.

No, Moolie, the future lies with technology.

My goodness.

Yes, with the engineer.

Oh, yeah.

Just imagine having those things named after you, eh?

Hey?

Like Mr. Bunsen's burner?

The Edison lamp?

Stevenson's a rock.

Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

Stevenson's a rock.

Mr. Toon.

Mr. Toon.

Professor Doon.

What's that?

Nothing.

Nothing, badger.

No, no, no.

I was just thinking.

Oh.

So he has a hand-effectual form as soon as he does it.

So it seems, eh, fame.

Yeah.

He's very keen on being famous.

Yeah.

Well, I think we can put a little scheme together out of that.

So you reckon we can bronze the famous Mr. Toe to do, yeah, but...

Just you watch me, brother.

Just you watch me.

But I don't quite see why you brought Professor...

Line, Lagan.

Yes, brought him here.

Oh, because he was looking for Toe, oh, Mr. Toe, because he was looking for you.

He's looking for me.

All the way from Switzerland, oh.

Right.

Tell him why, Professor.

Because I am looking for someone with vision.

Someone with imagination.

Oh, well.

That's me, all right.

Someone for whom their burden of fame would not be too great to bear.

Did I hear you mention fame?

Yes.

Yeah.

Fame.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Do, do, do go on.

I have, you see, their invention, in wench it.

Oh, and in wench it, you rewench it.

You rewench it.

An invention.

In wench it.

Oh, sorry.

In wench it, I see.

And it is the most important invention.

I'm fantastic, sir.

Machine.

You want together.

Man, want machine.

Will conquer the mysteries of the universe.

I do.

That's just what the catalog...

Mm.

But let's, let's just do what I said.

To have a kind, Mr. Toe, you and the Professor.

Really?

Well, men of vision.

Yeah, and imagination.

Oh.

Fame.

Oh, shame.

Oh, um, and...

Fame, yes, sir.

Whoo.

How?

You must not, to anyone, a word be saying.

Who? Me?

Oh, of course not.

Stum.

All together, Stum.

Right?

Stum.

Mm.

Mm.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, what he means, Mr. Toe, is that what he's going to tell you is so secret.

You mustn't tell nobody about it.

I say, specially no badger.

All right, all my own, you absolutely right.

I didn't ever understand.

Well, go on.

Tell me, tell me what you invented.

The invention I have invented is ein.

Perpetual motion machine.

Perpetual motion machine!

Perpetual motion machine?

Yes.

Yah.

Oh.

Can I see it?

Can I, can I, can I, can I?

Oh, well, now, Mr. Toe, uh, that's the trouble.

Hm?

Trouble?

Well, it ain't real.

What?

It is, towing slowly.

Towing?

Oh, I say.

And that is why I'm looking for you of us.

Um, um, because here I can be building it.

Here?

Yes.

The famous birthplace of the famous Toe.

We'll be more famous, yes.

I say.

It will be the birthplace of the world's first perpetual motion machine.

How does a petua...

Todus per petua...

You mean I would naturally name it after mine, benefactor?

Ooh.

The toad who provided the laboratory want the money to build it.

Yes.

Yes.

Um, and we won't tell Badger...

Or Rat...

Or Mo.

Todus per petua...

When did we start?

Yes, and we shall have to keep an eye on Toe.

I didn't like the look in his eye.

Dear, not another craze.

Could well be, Mo.

Only needs something new.

And a whiff of fame, and he loses whatever bitter sense he has.

For toad.

For her.

He certainly will be.

The way he throws his money around.

More money, Professor?

I know.

I know.

Oh, listen, Prof.

Maybe we ought to chuck it.

What?

Well, I mean, I know you're almost there, and I know it will make Mr. Toe

a new famous, but he can't go away.

I know.

I know.

Oh, listen, Prof.

Maybe we ought to chuck it.

What?

What?

Well, I mean, I know you're almost there, and I know it will make Mr. Toe

a new famous, but he can't go on dishing out the tin.

No, no, no.

That's all right.

I mean, I couldn't stand if I wasn't a famous.

If I thought I'd failed science, man, a machine, eh?

Do I'll go and get the money?

Good old toad.

I like taking sweets from babies.

And he just said, ha ha.

Ha ha. Well, to be precise, Ratty.

Ha ha.

Oh.

What is he up to?

I wish I knew.

I tried to get more out of him, but honestly, that's all he'd say.

And he's not been outside the hall for days now.

Well, I tell you what, when we finish Toe, we'll stroll up to Badgers

and keep him in touch.

Oh, yes, Ratty.

Good idea.

Oh, I say, I say, oh, oh, oh.

I say.

Good, excited, Mr. Toed.

But, oh, yes.

Come on, Professor.

Come on, did it going?

Yeah, yeah, I told.

But first, to explain to Vey, what it works.

Vey, the way what it works, just give the thing going.

Mr. Toed.

The prof's given the best years of his life.

I'm not sure.

I'm sure he's going to do it.

I'm sure he's going to do it.

Oh, right.

Right, Professor.

So, the way it is working is this.

The bows are from the top falling,

and making this feel to turn.

The feel is driving to the generator,

or the electricity from the generator.

This motor is driving here.

Yeah.

Oh, yes.

This motor is driving here.

Oh, yes.

This motor is driving here.

Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

This motor is driving the bottom wheel,

which is driving the belt.

The belt is taking the balls to the top

when they are falling,

turning the generator, which drives the motor,

which turns the wheel, which drives the belt,

which lifts the belt, which each one of the bullets

is trying to find Kong and the mystery.

We've conquered the mission of the universe.

I shall be, we shall be famous.

Can he, can he, can he, can he, can he.

Is he?

All in place.

All is in place.

Yes.

Right.

Then here we are going.

I'm...

Two...

and three.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no, no.

Look at this!

Oh, no, look at this!

Oh, see it, Mr. Tom.

Oh, I see it.

Whoo!

I've been hugging at night hood for this.

Oh, oh, sir.

Don't.

Whoo.

Oh, I see.

Pime off.

Just wait till there, Josh.

He's this.

Yeah.

Whoo.

Oh, oh, oh.

We've got a few things to clear up here, Mr. Tom.

Hey, yes, yes, yes, yes.

They will carry on.

AND

He-he-he-he-he!

What do you love that?

It is not Stefan, Nonsense, Badger.

It is not Stefan, Nonsense, huh?

Do you stop saying it?

Ha!

There!

There!

Look at that!

Oh, stop!

You see!

See?

See?

Nothing, no, it's all right!

I expect the Professors just reached how did it go?

off the motor that drives the belt that lifts them.

See, where is the professor?

It doesn't seem to be anyone else here at all, Tom.

Oh.

Anyway, that's what he'll have done.

In case anything goes not that anything can.

I mean, I'll just keep going again and then you'll see your...

Tom!

No, really badger. Just watch. It's absolutely amazing.

Oh.

It's...it's a chagrin.

It's a chagrin.

Oh, sorry.

Sorry.

Oh!

Oh.

Oh.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Oh, oh.

Oh, oh, oh.

Oh, no.

No one to blame but yourself told.

You have, as those villains would know how to put it,

have been bronzed.

I say toad.

Well, didn't you have a silver cup in that corner?

Yes, it's the one that...

Oh, where is it?

I can guess, toad.

Oh, no.

Oh, dear.

A lot of your paintings seem to have gone, too.

I paint...

I silver my paintings, my knighthood.

Knighthood?

Wouldn't it be mine?

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Knighthood!

Oh, toad.

You are a faint glorious simpleton.

Oh!

Oh, Badger, what are we going to do?

Yes.

I mean, whatever we think of toad.

Yeah, what?

We can't let those weasels get away with it.

Indeed, we cannot.

No.

Of course.

Yes, Ratty?

I was just thinking.

Yeah.

Well, if it did work, it would be worth an awful lot.

Yes, it isn't working.

How do they know it isn't?

Because they built it in the first...

Oh, Ratty.

I think I see what you mean.

I...

...word...

...yes.

What are you all on the bow?

I think toad that Ratty might have saved the day.

The world is quite soundy.

The king is overlord.

And Mr Toad's invention is going to make him lord.

Oh, Toad, it's wonderful.

Good old Toad.

My word.

Are we putting a brain face on things?

Oh, Chief.

Hello.

What a shame about Darren Wenson.

Hey?

No, yeah.

Shame?

Shame?

How do you mean?

We're off to London, you know.

London?

Who are you on about?

We're off to London to tell the Prime Minister about the perpetual motion machine.

We're all going to be rich.

Yes, and a famous, but it don't work.

Doesn't work, Chief Wiesel?

Who's been spreading that about?

Oh, no, it doesn't work.

Don't see why we should go to London to tell them about something that doesn't work.

Well, we must be going.

Come on.

No, no.

Wait a minute.

Let me see.

This is not the iced tea.

Tell us more.

Don't you think it sounds good?

Lord Toad?

Lord Toad.

Lord Toad.

Toad.

Toad.

That's my invention.

But you are bound in it.

And Toad supplied all the money for it.

We want our invention.

No, well, I'm off you.

Sorry, but it's ours.

I don't know.

I don't think.

You don't know.

I thought you said it had never worked.

I can't understand it.

I must have done it right, but it should work if it does work.

Thousands.

Hundreds of thousands.

Look, I'm sure we can come to some arrangement.

Well, arrangement?

Well, do a deal.

You know?

I don't think so.

Absolutely not.

I've got money.

Mr Toads, money.

And Mr Toads painting.

And my silver.

Well, you can have a well.

And all the money.

And all my money.

And all his money.

And well.

Oh no.

Don't start a game.

No.

I'll try again.

To die again.

It's no use trying again.

We've been bronzed.

I'm going to kill you, Bert.

I'm going to kill you.

I'm going to kill you.

I'm going to kill you.

I'll kill you.

I'll kill you.

I'll kill you.

I'll kill you.

Well, I'll kill you.

Oh, gee.

The clever bed that Oxford knew all was to be knew.

But none of them knew half as much as intelligent Mr Toads.

The animals that hid in the Oxford tears in torrents of noon.

The world is dead.

There's land ahead.

The world is dead.

The world has held eight heroes as his people's hensons.

We've never a name went down to fame compared with that of Toads.

Intelligent Mr Toads.

Hey, Gary, you missed Mr Toads.
