"The time of the Mating Season" transcript

Prologue: Playing rock soccer in the valley
Littlefoot's sitting right on a giant rock while Cera, Ducky, Spike, Petrie, Ruby, Chomper and Shorty are playing rock soccer.

Littlefoot: [Sighs Depressingly]

Cera: "Hey, Littlefoot,"

Ducky: "are you not gonna play rock soccer with all of us?"

Littlefoot: "No thanks, you guys, today's the anniversary of the day my mom got in that sharptooth battle fight and never survived."

Ruby: "Oh my gosh,"

Chomper: "we didn't know that,"

Shorty: "we know you knew her right before you and Dad adopted me."

Petrie: "Now me know what that feels like."

Chomper: "Anyhow, let's continue with our game right now."

The gang of 6 continue playing rock soccer 'til Petrie gets it right in the Goal leaf.

[The All-New Land Before Time Theme Music In Background]

Male Singer: All I see is

the day in front of us

burning bright

with a newborn sun

burning bright

with a newborn sun

come follow me

hills to climb

and plains to roam

oh streams to follow

all the way home

to The All-New Land Before Time

before time.......

[Music Ends In Background]

Scene 1: The middle of the big oak tree
Cera, Ducky, Petrie, Spike, Ruby and Chomper have gone right over to their separate sleeping places while Littlefoot's right by his own sleeping place by the big oak tree and Bron, Edgar and Muriel walk right over to him.

Bron: "Hey, Littlefoot,"

Edgar; "are you feeling alright?"

Littlefoot: "Yeah, Dad, Grandma and Grandpa, I'm alright, I just miss Mom a bit, that's all, but I know she's in my heart and mind right now."

Muriel: "That's good to hear about, Littlefoot, that's good to hear about."

Littlefoot falls asleep again.

The very next morning, Littlefoot, Shorty and the other dinosaur kids are going on separate walks with their true family members.

Bron: "So, Littlefoot, Shorty, can you remember that giant rock over there?"

Littlefoot: "Yeah, Dad,"

Shorty: "of course we do."

Bron: "Well, Littlefoot, right before you were born and Shorty came along, your mother and I sat on that giant rock to watch the beautiful sky puffies."

Littlefoot: "Oh yeah, I do remember it."

Shorty: "I wasn't even there yet."

Bron: "You know, Littlefoot, I agree with you, I been missing your mother more than anything, but we now know she's in the skies of heaven watching over us."

Littlefoot: "So do I."

Littlefoot, Shorty, Bron, Edgar and Muriel continue walking around 'til they discover a widowed female longneck/Janet and another little female longneck/Sunshine coming their way.

Shorty: "Look, Littlefoot, you got visitors."

The widowed female longneck/Janet and the other little female longneck/Sunshine come right closer to them.

Bron: "Hi there, what brings you here to our valley?"

Widowed Female Longneck/Janet: "Well, we came here to visit all of you, I'm Janet and this is my daughter, Sunshine."

Little Female Longneck/Sunshine: "Hi there, you guys."

Bron: "Nice meeting you, Janet,"

Littlefoot: "and you too, Sunshine,"

Bron: "I'm Bron, and these are my sons, Littlefoot and Shorty and my in-laws, Edgar and Muriel."

Janet: "Well, Bron, it's nice meeting you as well too, especially you, Littlefoot, and you too, Shorty."

Sunshine: "We know, but it's been a couple of years ever since my dad got killed off in a battle fight against fast-biters."

Littlefoot: "You know something, Sunshine? my mom had the exact same death in the 1st sharptooth battle fight right before my dad and I adopted Shorty."

Janet: "Well, Littlefoot, you have such powerful memories of your past years."

Bron: "So, Janet, what Littlefoot needs here is a new mother touch."

Janet: "Hey, I was thinking the exact same thing too, Sunshine needs a new father touch as well."

Littlefoot: "So, Shorty, if our Dad goes out with Janet and mates with her, then Janet would be our new mother and Sunshine would be our adoptive sister as well."

Shorty: "Oh yeah, that'll be super thrilling."

Topsy: "We must prepare for the mating ceremony,"

Tria: "we want this to be the most perfect for Bron and Janet the way you all did for Topsy and I."

[Music Ends]

Littlefoot: "So, Sunshine,"

Shorty: "what do you think about this?"

Sunshine: "This is gonna be super wonderful, you guys, my mom and your dad are gonna really love what we're doing for them."

Littlefoot: "Sunshine? do you really think this mating ceremony gives you the memories of your mom and dad's times together as always?"

Flashback sequence to Thanatos and Janet's times together as always and with Sunshine as well.........

[Music In Background]

Sunshine: Remembering, remembering

is a kind of hilarious thing

it makes me think about time gone by

a wonderful hello, a wonderful goodbye

good memories I'll always have treasured

remembering makes re-appear

for better, for brave, or even worse

I'll always have some remembering

my remembering

End of flashback sequence......

Littlefoot: "Wow, Sunshine,"

Shorty: "you really do have good memories about him."

Cera: "Let's continue preparing for the rest of the ceremony."

Ducky: "Oh yes, let's keep going, you guys."

The gang of 7 continue going on their mission quests to find things for the ceremony including tree sweets and fresh berries and sweet bubbles.

Littlefoot: "Well, we got everything that we need to be prepared for the super big event."

[Distant Stomping Sounds]

Ruby: "What's that stomping sound?"

Chomper: "it sounds just like Red Claw and his cronies."

Petrie: "Uh oh, that not sound good."

Cera: "Let's get outta here, you guys!"

The gang of 7 makes a run for it while Red Claw and his fast-biter cronies are chasing them around.

Littlefoot: "Hurry, this way, there's a nearby cave!"

The gang of 7 hide right inside the nearby cave with the mating ceremony gifts which are now safe and secure, but Red Claw and his fast-biter cronies are no longer in sight.

Littlefoot: "Okay, they're gone for good right now, let's take these gifts back home to the valley."

The gang of 7 gather up the mating ceremony gifts and walk around on their way back to the Great Valley for the mating ceremony.

Back in the Great Valley/the mating ceremony
Tria: "Oh wow, look at that,"

Topsy: "You kids sure did a fantastic job gathering everything up."

Chomper: "We know, Mr. Threehorn, it was all Littlefoot's idea."

Muriel: "Edgar? would you care to do the honors of the mating ceremony?"

Edgar: "Why sure, Muriel, I'd really love to do it."

Bron and Janet get closer with 1 another.

Edgar: "Now right before you 2 mate 1 another, let's have 1 of them say something to 1 another."

Bron: "Janet, wherever I go and whenever I face a big mean sharptooth, I'll always think about you,"

Janet: "and, Bron, when I watch Littlefoot playing with Sunshine, I'll always think about you as well."

Edgar: "And now, I pronounce you mate and mate."

Bron and Janet cuddle head to head with 1 another and their now mated.

All Great Valley Dinosaur friends: "Yahoo!" YEAAAAAAAAAH!"

Chomper: "They finally mated with 1 another!"

Meanwhile, Littlefoot, Shorty and Sunshine are now watching their new adoptive parents walking around the entire valley and everybody's celebrating it as well.

Cera: "So, Littlefoot, what do you think about your new adoptive mother and sister living with you?"

Littlefoot: "Super thrilling, you guys, but even though my previous mother's in the skies of heaven, I got the current 1 to watch over me, Shorty and Sunshine right now."

Ducky: "That is real good to hear about, yes, yes, yes."
