Dialogue
edit- Young Timmy: This was our last race together and I ruined it. I'm sorry Martin.
- Young Martin: Nah, I'll be the sorry one if something happens to you hero. Ha ha ha.
- Young Timmy: Don't call me that, you're the hero type not me. Nicodemus would've chosen you.
- Young Martin: For once you're right. I am older and stronger than you. If Thorn Valley wanted Jonathan Brisby's son. Why'd they pick the runt?
- Young Timmy: It's true. I mess up everything.
- Young Martin: Look I'm sorry Timmy. You'll do great. Really. Come on or you'll miss your flight. Hey, wait a minute. I've got something for you. Here, a going away present.
- [Martin gives Timmy the slingshot]
- Young Timmy: Golly for real? Teach me.
- [after Timmy and Jenny climb up the stairs, they look around the room]
- Timmy: It's so quiet.
- Jenny: Too quiet. [gasp] Someone's coming.
- [They hide as the Rat Guards of NIMH march out of the elevator]
- Rat Guards of NIMH: Left, left, left right left! Left, left, left right left! Left, left, left right left!
- Timmy: Those are the biggest rats I've ever seen in my life.
- Jenny: Keep an eye out, there are bigger creatures than that in this place.
- Rat Guards of NIMH: Left, left, left right left! Left, left, left right left! Left, left, left right left!
- Jenny: Thanks. Come on. [opens the door slot with a feather quill and they both crawl in the door slot]
- Timmy: I'm sorry everybody. It's my fault. I wasn't a team player.
- [the Rat Guards of NIMH takes Timmy, Jenny, Justin prisoner and marches them into Dr. Valentines lab]
- Muriel: Here you go boss.
- [The Rat Guard throws Timmy and Jenny on the floor and they fall forward and they get out and sees Dr. Valentine with the lightening flashing behind him]
- Timmy and Jenny: [gasp]
- Jenny: Dr. Valentine!
- Muriel: More recruits!
- Floyd: Yes sir. And we didn't even eat any I wanted to make a lovely stew of course.
- Muriel: [elbows Floyd] Put a sock in it Floyd!
- Evil Martin: Dr. Valentine, Fetch.
- Dr. Valentine: Ruff! Ruff! Ruff! Ruff! Ruff! Ruff!
- [Then the rubber ball bounces and Dr. Valentine acts like a dog and crawls on the floor after the ball and plays with it. Then Evil Martin is shown sitting in the electric chair]
- Evil Martin: Little two of you. How In?
- Timmy: Huh?
- [Then Evil Martin gets up and walks over to Timmy]
- Evil Martin: You bruised me. I must be half changed a bit. But for the better, don't you think? Hero!
- Timmy: Martin.
- Evil Martin: Not quite, brother. It's me, the new and improved Martin.
- Timmy: Martin what's wrong? What's happened to you?
- Evil Martin: Happened? Why life happened that's what! And I made the most of it! Don't you think.
- [Then the song Just Say Yes starts and Martin hypothesize them with his eye]
- Evil Martin: [grabs Timmy's vest] Just say yes.
- Timmy: No!
- Evil Martin: Wrong answer. [drops Timmy but Floyd catches him]
- Jenny: Tim!
- Floyd: I'd say, I've caught a mouse. Hi.
- Timmy: No! [tries to run but Floyd grabs him again]
- Floyd: Nah, ah. May I dissolve the thing your desires?
- Evil Martin: No! Wait, But for now maybe something a little more accommodating for a long lost brother. I know! A ring sized suits so you can watch me throw my master plan. Tonight the moon is full and I attack Thorn Valley.
- Timmy: No!
- Evil Martin: Your soon to be zapped friends. Will be my willing soldiers. Quite a shock. No pun intended.
- Jenny: You're insane! [The Rat Guard grabs Jenny's hair and pulls her back] Aggh!
- Evil Martin: Well, thank you. Now she has real spunk. Not like you hero.
- Jenny: Let me go!
- Evil Martin: She has real potential. Take her to my personal chamber.
- [Muriel grabs Jenny with her mouth and takes her away]
- Jenny: Put me down you feline freak!
- Evil Martin: Ooh, she'll make a perfect queen for my new realm, ha ha ha. Her attitude just needs a slight alteration. Place the others into their old friends. After all we have so much in common. No future. You'll be happy to know that this cage was one of our finest particular favorites. See you soon brother! Then again maybe not.
- Timmy: Martin! Don't do this!
- Evil Martin: Ha ha ha ha!
- Timmy: This is all my fault, why didn't I listen.
- [Then the doors close]
- Timmy: After you. [The fire explodes] Martin. Jenny, promise me something.
- Jenny: Anything.
- Timmy: Don't come after me. [Kisses Jenny and slides down the thread quickly down the floor]
- Jenny: Tim! Where are you going?
- Timmy: I'm doing what you said! I'm following my heart!
- Jenny: I love you!
- Timmy: Woo, I love you too!
