Wolves Say The Darndest Things -
Part Five

"Wolf! How did you find us?"

"Oh Virginia - I've been following you for a long time."

"Oh my God."

- Virginia and Wolf

"Where did you go? After you left Kissingtown?"

"Kissingtown...I went off for a while, to think about things. Picked up your trail a few days ago."

"But how? We went through a mountain."

"Virginia...I could follow your scent across time itself."

"You seem different."

"We're both different."

"I didn't mean to chase you away. You know, it was just...everything was just happening so quickly, you know, and...and...I really do like you. I like you a lot. And I never...I never want to hurt you. I think I love you."

- Virginia and Wolf

"Virginia, there's something I'd really like you to do for-I mean with me. And I think I deserve it, given my multiple savings of your life."

"I know what you want to do and the answer's yes."

"Oh, oh cripes! Oh I want you so much!"

"I know, I want you too."

"All right, all right, all right. You run into the woods and I'll cover my eyes."

"Sorry?"

"Into the trees and I'll cover my eyes and I'll count to one hundred!"

"Are you serious?"

"Oh yes! I won't cheat. I promise. I won't cheat."

"That's not the point-"

"All right, all right, all right, all right, all right. Maybe I'll count a little quicker after fifty, but I promise you'll get a proper count from me."

"I am not playing hide and seek with you!"

"Come on, come on, come on. {Cover eyes} One, two, three..."

"No!"

"Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, you better run{Virginia screams then runs off}, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, seventy two, seventy three, seventy four, ninety eight, ninety nine, one hundred. Comiiiiiiiiiiing!"

- Wolf and Virginia

"Well it's about time. Where's the wood? For the fire?"

"Couldn't find any."

"You couldn't find any wood? In a forest?"

"Hello Tony."

"You don't have any wood either!"

"Yes. Thank you."

{Tony sees Wolf's tail and realises what happened}

- Tony, Virginia and Wolf

"The Queen..."

"Yeah?"

"Is my mother."

"Oh. I knew that. From the first moment I smelled you."

- Virginia and Wolf

"What do we do all day?"

"Sleep. We're exhausted. Are we not?"

"Definitely."

"Did I miss something?"

- Tony, Wolf and Virginia

"I almost drowned in there!"

"Oh don't exaggerate."

- Tony and Wolf

"One door leads to safety. One door leads to a horrible death."

"Oh, I learned this at school but I can never remember it!"

"Ribbit. You may ask one question."

"Okay."

"Ribbit. But I always lie."

"Okay, okay. If we ask him which door's the safe door-"

"Well then he'll lie, and say it's the other one."

"Is it?"

"Or is it the other way round?"

"I don't know."

- The Frog, Wolf and Virginia

"I guess it's the other one."

- Wolf

"Now my deduction, is that she will have our Prince in the very next room. There. {Opens closet and mops fall out} Maybe I'm wrong."

- Wolf

"Did I do well, Your Majesty?"

"Excellent well."

"What?"

"I thought it safest to stick with them. Make sure they don't spoil your plans."

"What have you done?"

"It's very simple, Virginia. I obey The Queen."

- Wolf, The Evil Queen and Virginia

"My crafty little Wolf. You had me worried for a while."

"When you freed me from prison I agreed to serve you. A wolf always keeps his bargain."

"After tonight, when I rule The Nine Kingdoms, wolves will be very important. I will make them my secret police. And you will be the chief."

"Huff puff! Chief Wolf!"

- The Evil Queen and Wolf

"Huff puff! Chief Wolf! The wolves won't run out of town this time. The farmers don't know what's gonna bite 'em. Excuse me. 'Shepherdess makes quite a mess, but little lambs...'"

- Wolf

"Cripes!"

- Wolf

"I thought you poisoned everybody."

"Oh, no, no, no, no. Troll dust. I swapped the poison for a pinch of Troll Dust. Just to make it look convincing. I'm sorry I had to trick you."

- Virginia and Wolf

"Hi. I've been waiting for you to wake up. You've been asleep for almost two days."

"I don't think I realised how tired I was. What have I done?"

"It's not your fault. Don't blame yourself. Because that..."

"My destiny."

"Oh Virginia. Let her go."

- Wolf and Virginia

"For him, I have no medal."

"Huff, puff. That's typical!"

"Instead, I have here a Royal Pardon, for all wolves everywhere throughout my Kingdom. From now on wolves will be known as heroes. For it was a noble wolf who saved The Nine Kingdoms."

"That's wolves for ya! Good guys!"

- Prince and Wolf

"Miss! Miss! Over here, over here. Succulent. What would you like to eat?"

"Hey, you gotta eat something."

"Yeah, you gotta eat something."

- Wolf and Tony

"I'm fine, really."

"She's fine, really."

- Virginia and Wolf

"'How I long to linger, on your sweetheart's finger.'"

"What?"

"It's my engagement ring! A Singing Ring never fails to get his girl. It's destiny. Put it on. Put it on!"

"Well all right. I'll just try it on, but I'm not getting married."

"Of course you are. Our baby's got to have a father."

"I don't intend to have any children, thank you very much."

"Well it's a little bit late for that."

"What do you mean?"

"You've got a little wolf cub growing inside of you. A little furry chap just like me, only much smaller. Believe me, I'm a wolf. I know these things."

"Really?"

"I just know."

- The Singing Ring, Virginia and Wolf

"See you soon. Grandpa."

"Grandpa?!"

- Wolf and Tony
