Scene 3: Fowler must share his bed with Rocky though he complains.

Fowler: Absolutely 27)outrageous! Asking a senior officer to share his 28)quarters, and with a 29)non-commissioned yank, 30)no less. Huh! Well, back in my day, I'd never.....

Rocky: You weren't exactly my first choice either. And skootle! Your wing's on my side of the bunk.

Fowler: Your side of the bunk? The whole bunk is my side of the bunk!

Rocky: Just! What's that smell? Is that your breath?

Fowler: It's absolutely outrageous.

Scene 4: Rocky is coaching the chickens to do some warm-up exercises before they fly.

Rocky: So you wanna fly, huh? Well it ain't gonna be easy and it ain't going to happen over night either. You see flying takes three things: hard work, perseverance, and... hard work.

Fowler: You said hard work twice.

Rocky: That's because it takes twice as much work as perseverance.

Fowler: Hog swallop!

Rocky: Now the most important thing is we have to work as a team, which means you do everything I tell you. Right! Let's rock n roll!

Scene 5: The situation goes from bad to worse when the sinister Mrs. Tweedy decides to stop selling eggs and uses the hens as the main ingredient in chicken pot pies.

Mr. Tweedy: What's, what's all this then?

Mrs. Tweedy: This is our future, Mr. Tweedy, no more wasting time with 32)petty egg clutching and 33)minuscule profits.

Mr. Tweedy: No more eggs? But we've always been egg farmers, my father and his father, and all their fathers, there was always...

Mrs. Tweedy: Poor brainless! Nothings! But all that's about to change. This will take Tweedys' Farm out of the dark ages and into full scale automated production. Militia Tweedy will be poor no longer.

Mr. Tweedy: I'll put it together then, shall I?

Scene 6: Rocky risks his own life to save Ginger's. Fowler changes his opinion of Rocky.

Rocky: Alright pops, what did I do now?

Fowler: A very brave and honorable deed, sir. 34)In the light of your action this evening, I 35)dutifully admit that I have misjudged your character. I present you with this medal for bravery. And I salute you! 36)In honor of the occasion, I surrender the bunk entirely. I shall sleep under the stars. I await tomorrow's flying demonstration with great anticipation.

Rocky: You and me both, pops.

Scene 7: Rocky can't fly, but it seems too late for him to tell the truth to the chickens. What should he do? He is hesitating to make his decision on the roof when Ginger comes up.

Rocky: Oh!

Ginger: I'm sorry...

Rocky: Is this your... Oh, I'll get down...

Ginger: No, no, it's just... well, since you're here, there's something I...

Rocky: I'm glad that you are here...

Ginger: I'm sorry.

Rocky: No, you go first...

Ginger: I just wanted to say that I may have been a bit 37)harsh at first, well what I really mean is thank you for saving my life, for saving our lives. You know. I come up here every night and look out at that hill, and just imagine what it must be like on the other side. It's funny, I've never actually felt grass beneath my feet. I'm sorry, here I am 38)rambling on about hills and grass and you had something you wanted to say.

Rocky: Uh, yeah. It's just that, you know life, as I've experienced it, you know, out there along the free range and all that stuff. It's full of disappointments.

Ginger: You mean grass isn't all it's 39)cracked up to be?

Rocky: Grass! Exactly, grass. It's always greener on the other side. And then you get there, and it's brown and 40)prickly. You see what I'm trying to say? What I'm trying to say is... you're welcome.

Ginger: You know, That hill is looking closer tonight than it ever has before.

(Ginger's hand touches Rocky's.)

Rocky: Oh!

Ginger: Well, good night, Rocky.

Rocky: Good night, Ginger.
