Margaret: Hello! Where are you? Come back!

(?)

Margaret: We're gonna find out who. R.T., if you see it's true, clap your hands. If you don't know, don't clap. Understand?

(R.T. nodded)

Margaret: The person is a man.

(R.T. (?))

Margaret: The person is a woman.

(?)

Margaret: The person is a child.

(?)

Margaret: Was is a woman? Clap. Was it a man? Clap. Was it a kid, like us? Clap. There has to be one of them.

(?)

Margaret: Did it go this way or that way?

(?)

Margaret: R.T., you tell. It's very important. If you don't tell me, I'm leaving you and I'll be alone.

(?)

Christopher:

(R.T. stretched (?))

(?)

Christopher: Don't be scared, R.T.. You're gonna be okay. I'll take care of you. Do you want to come with me or is there something wrong?

(?)

Christopher: I'm Christopher.

(?)

Margaret: I saw you, R.T.. The thing in your backpack. It look like a rat and it was talking to you.

(?)

(R.T. is crying (?))

(?)

Margaret: Who are you?

Christopher: I'm Christopher. Who are you?

Margaret: Margaret. Why can't you talk? Animals don't talk. My parents taught me.

Christopher: I was giving him a food and a medicine for R.T.

(?)

Margaret: I was pretending to leave.

(?)

Margaret: I was finding my way to call my parents. We've been lost of three days. We haven't had anything to eat.

(R.T. (?))

Christopher: You give him some medicine.

Margaret: Medicine? You think you gave yourself my brother a medicine?

Christopher: This medicine would help him.

Margaret:

Christopher:

Margaret:

Christopher:

Margaret: Animals? Rats? Mice? In the valley? Do they have phones?

Christopher: No phones, but they have food and maps. A map (?).

Margaret:

(?)

Margaret: I want to get a message to your friends in the valley. I want them to leave me and R.T. out of here back to where we came from and I'm gonna hold o nto you until they do that.

Christopher:

Margaret: If you refuse to cooperate, I'll kill you.

(?)

R.T.: No! No! No!

Chapter 9
Margaret: Just like he said first words in two years of talking rat.

(?)

Margaret: I'm beginning to feel the heebie-jeebies out of it, but it didn't seem funny.

(Margaret gave R.T. a medicine (?))

Margaret: Hey, Christopher.

Christopher: What?

Margaret: Can you read and write?

Christopher: Of course I can.

Margaret: Well, you graduate from college. (She laughed) What do you write on? Oh, I know, that paper you had the food wrapped up in. how about some blackberry ink and I'd better take R.T. while I go get it since I can't trust him not to untie you while I'm gone.

(?)

Margaret: I want you to write a letter.

Christopher: I won't.

Margaret: What?

Christopher: I won't.

Margaret: Look, this is the best thing for you. The sooner you write the letter, the sooner your friends can help me and the sooner you'll be free.

Christopher: I don't care.

Margaret: Why not?

Christopher: Because you're mean. You're mean to R.T. and you're mean to me.

Margaret: Of course I'm exasperated. I can't kidnapped someone.

Christopher: (?)

Margaret: Look, you're not being realistic. I am not mean really. It's survival. I mean, how long do you think we could survive we are humans and we're not meant to live out here in the wilderness like you are. Don't you see?

(?)

Margaret: Okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I guess I hurt your feelings.

Christopher: You did hurt my feelings. It hasn't been any field trip for me trying to help you two.

Margaret: You were really trying to help R.T. not being … Well, … now you can really help him. You can write this letter to your friends. If I do, will you let me go?

Christopher: Not yet.

Margaret: But I have to use you to get the others to cooperative, but I will free you.

(?)

Christopher: I'll tell you what to say. You'll have to untie my paw.

Margaret: I'll just loosen the string.

Christopher: (?) Go ahead.

(Margaret wrote a message to (?))

Margaret: Now sign your name.

Christopher: You're not treating me well.

Margaret: Just sign your name.

(Christopher (?))

Margaret: Where should I put it, so that the others will find it?

Christopher: Try putting it over by the stone. A little to the left of the thicket there.

Margaret: You think they'll come so close? I thought you said they live in the valley?

Christopher: I think someone will find it. If not, we can try another place tomorrow.

(?)

Margaret: Oh no. That was only an expression. To get away with murder. It meant that the boy simply did whatever he wanted to. No matter what others expected of him

Christopher: That sounds like you, not Artie.

(?)

Nicodemus: (?) Thorn Valley (?).

(?)

Margaret: What?! (?)

(R.T. sobbing (?))

Margaret: Try and pull yourself together. Crying doesn't help.

(?)

Margaret: Thank you for providing a good home.

(R.T. (?))

(?)

(?):

(?)

Chapter 10
(?)

(?): Odd in me.

(?)

Margaret: Who is it?

(?): It is I, …

(?)

Margaret: Who are you?

(?): My name is (?).

Margaret: (?).

(?)

Margaret: You're the one that signed the letter, aren't you?

(?): Yes, and you must be Margaret.

(?)

Margaret: Christopher's in the cave.

(?): I suppose he would be.

Margaret: He's been crying and crying.

(?): Has he?

Margaret: I think it was your letter that upset him. Well, you said you didn't want him back.

(?): I see.

Margaret: And so I wrote you again to see if you would take him.

(?): I got your letter. (?) You must take the rat back. I couldn't understand it. I thought you wanted him.

Margaret: I did when I took him hostage because I thought you wanted him and if I kept him, then you'd help me.

(?): A rat who would steal food.

Margaret: But he did that for us. Really. I don't think it's fair to blame him for that.

(?): He could have asked?

Margaret: Maybe there wasn't time.

(?): Oh, there was.

(?)

Margaret: (?) Leon. (?). He likes my older brother. Arthur. He actually did it for him.

(?): How is your brother?

Margaret: Oh, he's fine. To tell the truth, I've never seen him so good.

(?): That was a hard trip over the mountain. I'm glad he's well.

Margaret: Listen. What about Christopher?

(?): What about him?

Margaret: I can't keep him actually. I've got enough problems of my own.

(?): Well, put him out.

Margaret: He might starve. You wouldn't want him to starve.

(?): Of course not.

Margaret: Listen. My brother and I need food too, until we find our way out of here. I thought maybe you could help us. Christopher said there are a couple of you and that you have supplies. I really hate to ask, but I don't know what else to do.

(?): We've worked for the food. We couldn't just give it away.

Margaret: My parents could pay you later. They could send you a check.

(?): Hmmm, I'm afraid that wouldn't do. We don't use money.

Margaret: Maybe we could work for it then, too. We're both bigger than you. I've done stuff like raking leaves and cutting the grass lots of time for my dad.

(?): There is a job we need done, but it's hard. It involves climbing a rather steep cliff. I'm not sure you could do that.

Margaret: I climbed this far and I carried Arthur part of the way too.

(?): So you did? You look strong.

(?)

(?): There's a hawk's nest at the top of the cliff. We need to move it about a mile to an oak tree in a meadow north of where we live. Once it's moved, the hawk will have a new hunting territory instead of the area around our nest.

Margaret: You mean hawks eats?

(?): You won't be in any danger from the hawk. That's why you could be such a help. She only attacks small mammals, birds, and fish, but the climb itself is dangerous and if you succeed in reaching the nest, there may be other problems too.

Margaret: I don't know if I can do it or not, but I'll try.

(?): You sure?

Margaret: Yes.

(?): Then I'll send you a guide to take you to the cliff not today, but early tomorrow morning, you'll bring Arthur to our nest first, so he can be looked after. Christopher can come with him and we'll give you some food too.

Margaret: Thank you.

(?): Good luck.

(?)

Chapter 11
(?)

Margaret: Wait up!

(?)

Margaret: You wait until I get my hands on you.

(?)

Isabella: Hey, I didn't realize human children were so slow.

Margaret: You just wait!

(?)

Margaret: Better save your strength. You're going to need it.

(?)

Isabella: That's it!

Margaret: That's what?

Isabella: The nest!

(?)

Margaret: You're kidding.

(?)

Isabella: You see? But how could anyone climb this. It goes straight up. It doesn't go straight up. Look. (?) You could use those to hold on to and you have the vine rope we made for you. I don't think I can do it.

Margaret: That's your decision?

(?)

Margaret: I hate you. In case you're wondering in.

Isabella: In case you were wondering, I hate you too.

Margaret: Why?

Isabella: Because you ruined my new image.

Margaret: I don't know what you're talking about.

Isabella: Just when everyone had begun to accept that I'm really extremely responsible. Not flighty or silly like they used to think you came along. I decided to help Christopher, so I climbed all the way up the mountain with the food. I had taken out of the storeroom against my better judgment and what's the first thing that happens when we get there. You grab Christopher and tie him up, so we have to tell the whole thing to Nicodemus and Justin imagine how I felt. And it was all your fault.

Margaret: That's ridiculous. I didn't ask you to take the food out of the storeroom or make you climb the mountain. I didn't know anything about you.

Isabella: But if you hadn't been there, it wouldn't have happened.

Margaret: You think I wanted to get lost in the middle of the wilderness? You think I want to be here now. Believe me. I have ten times rather be home watching TV and drinking soda. I don't like nature and I don't like rats either.

(?)

Isabella: It's your fault you kidnapped Christopher and just when he was trying to help you too.

Margaret: Well … maybe I'm not perfect. Like you.

(?)

Margaret: And you'll never get that nest down.

Isabella: And you'll never get that nest down either. You're too fat to make it up see cliff.

(?)

(?)

Mr. Livingstone: Easy does it, Margaret. You can do it.

(?)

(?)

Margaret: I made it!

Isabella: You did?

Margaret: yep. I'm up here with the nest.

Isabella: Oh. That's good.

(?)

Isabella: I've got it!

(?)

Margaret: Helicopter! (?) But that's crazy! I want to be found. I do want to be found. Of course I do.

Chapter 12
(?)

Christopher: How was I supposed to know it was part of the plan? I thought you meant it.

(?): Do you think we'd put you into exile

Christopher: I didn't know, but I did know I should have told you about them.

(?): Yes. You should have.

Christopher: I wanted the secret for myself and I knew you'd say not to go near them anymore.

(?): That's probably true.

Christopher: RT needed me. He was sick and half-starved.

(?): Yes.

(?)

(?): Having the children here Present difficulties. There's a lot they don't know, but what they've seen and heard is dangerous for us. It would have been better to be avoided.

Christopher: You're angry.

(?): No. it's just that I haven't been feeling well and the trip up and down the mountain was tiring.

Christopher: I'm never tired. Only hungry.

(?): Yes. I've noticed.

(?)

Racso: I was just wondering how things are going in the candy industry. Candy is my favorite food and we don't get much of it here.

(?)

Racso: One of my favorites is the peppermint patty. When I had the chance, I always got that first especially if it was a hot day. I think peppermint tastes so good on a hot day and when I came to Thorn Valley, that's here you know that's what it's called here. I discovered they didn't have any candy. I really felt sorry for them, so I worked and worked and I made them a whole bunch for a surprise. To be honest with you, Isabella helped too. Christopher was real sick then, but we snuck in and gave him some anyway and he loved it. It helped him get well and everyone else loved it too. It's mostly gone now. I've been wanting to make some more, but I've just been so busy.

(?)

Racso: What's your favorite kind of candy?

(?)

Racso: Don't be shy. You don't have to be shy with me. I know what humans are like. I come from the city myself. Some of these other rats don't know about the kind of stuff that you and I know about because they've always lived here in the valley. They live the natural way. No TV. No comics. I like it here now, but it does take some getting used to. Sometimes I sit and remember the store I used to sneak into at night. It was just one room and across the front. There was a great big counter and along the counter. There was every kind of candy bar in the whole world and they were lined up according to Keller. First, there were the Hershey bars, which are brown. Then, next to them were the plain M&M's and next to them were they tootsie rolls. Then the red's, mounds bars, KitKat, I didn't like KitKat because it had the word cat in it, so I wouldn't eat that. Anyway, there were Nestle's crunch, Norman joy because they're blue, you know, and …

(?)

Racso: What's wrong? What's the matter?

(?)

Christopher: What have you done to him?

Racso: He's crying.

Christopher: I know he's crying. You were supposed to be taking care of him.

Racso: I was taking care of him. I was just talking to him about some things we have in common and when I looked up, …

Christopher: When you looked up? You shouldn't have looked away in the first place.

Racso: Pardon me, but look at him right now.

(?)

Christopher: Hmm. I guess he's okay after all.

Racso: Guess so.

Christopher: I'm gonna take him for a walk. Wanna come?

Racso: No thanks.

(?)

Christopher: This is my bowl. See how it's got my name carved on it. And this is the journal I keep for school. I write down my ideas in here and all the exciting things that happen. I wrote about you too and this is jar of pokeberry ink. We use it to write. Never drink this. It's poisonous. Last year, I wanted to see how poisonous it was, so I mix them with water and drink just a little bit. Was I sick? (?) And this is a game you play with sticks and balls. See, you hold this stick with your tail if you have one that is and you whack the ball into the basket.

(?)

Christopher: Now go for a walk. (?) We got a sign of work in the garden together, while some of the other rats were away. Neither of us would admit. We couldn't read the list of instructions, so we ended up picking all the mint, instead of weeding it, but that wasn't the first time I'd gotten in trouble. Not at all. When I was really little, I used to eat in the nursery. They always brought in soup first. Then bread. One day, I decided to have my bread first. By the time I got to the soup, it was cold, so I found there was a good reason to eat soup first, but I had to figure it out for myself. That's how I am about everything. I'm always trying new things, like walking backward instead of head first and sleeping in the daytime, but staying up all night just do what I tell you my dad says and my mom says. "Christopher, why can't you trust our experience?" But it isn't that I don't trust them, RT. I just like to see for myself. Now there are lots of ways to do things, I learned that from Racso. He came here from the city, like you, and he had been brought up differently. He taught me about rock and roll music and tall buildings and cars and junk food and TV. In school, I learned that the earth is covered with many cities and countries and they all have different ways of doing things. That's why I get impatient doing the chores the same way each time (?) says I have to do them anyway. They said I have to figure out a way to keep from getting bold, so quick, but I could never be bored around you. RT. Everything about you is interesting. Someday you'll tell me all about yourself. About your mom and dad and what your house is like and what you like to play with. One day when you feel like it.

(?)

Christopher: You haven't gone sick since that day by the cave. (?) That was true.

(?)

Racso: When you drank it, part of the valley went inside you.

(?)

Christopher: You could pat, Racso.

(?)

Christopher: There's just one more thing I want to show you. (?) This is a secret place. I found it when I was little, I've never told anyone else about it. Not till now it's going to be for us. (?) I might leave a present here for you or a message or something special to eat and you might leave something here for me, but we won't tell anyone that's what secret means, you know. And we'll pledge to keep it a secret because we're such good friends. They do that in stories. Let's see the pledge will go like this. (?) And we do so swear. Put your hand here, RT, and I'll raise my paw. That's right. (?) And we do firstly swear. Our pledge shall live forever and our friendship, abide, and into eternity.

(?)

Chapter 13
(?)

Isabella: Congratulations. I didn't think you could do it. (?) You're bleeding! Oh my gosh, you're bleeding! That's blood!

Margaret: Of course it's blood. I scraped myself on the rocks.

Isabella: But you need bandages medicine first aid. Help!

(?)

Isabella: Help! Racso!

(?)

Isabella: What would they do now?

(?)

Isabella: Wait right here! I know what to do. Just lie down and wait for me.

(?)

(?): She moved the nest!

(?)

Christopher: We heard you move the hawks nest.

(?)

Margaret: It was scary, but I liked it.

Christopher: Why?

Margaret: Nobody ever asked me to do anything that important or that hard. I'm sorry about what happened in the cave. I was afraid I didn't know what to do.

Christopher: Anyway, it worked out all right.

Margaret: You know, I think I like it here. I think Artie does too.

(?)

Christopher: She told me she did.

(?)

Christopher: And furthermore, she can keep on helping us like she did with the hawks nest Think how fast she could move that pile of stones down by the dam.

(?): But then she would know about the dam.

Christopher: What does it matter if she knows a lot already?

(?): What do you mean?

Christopher: She knows we can talk and read and write.

(?)

Christopher: Will it really make any difference if she learns now more of us than she thought?

(?): I see what you mean. It wouldn't make her story any more believable. As long as they don't know about NIMH that is.

Christopher: What story?

(?): The one she tells when she gets back. Where she came from?

Christopher: Oh, she can't go back that would be crazy.

Mr. Ages: Did you think she and Arthur would stay here forever?

(?)

(?): I don't think they'd be happy here. They'd miss their parents and friends.

Christopher: They're happy now. Artie hasn't been sick at all and he needs me. I'm his best friend.

(?): Having a special friend makes you feel special too. I bet.

(?)

Christopher: Arthur needs me. He can't talk, but I can understand and, by the way, he looks at me.

(?): I'm glad it was you who found him.

Christopher: He can stay, can't he?

(?): I don't know what's going to happen. But for now, I think you should look after him. Make sure he's comfortable and that he has whatever he needs to eat or play with.

Christopher: I will. Oh, I will.

(?)

Mr. Ages: Congratulations and thank you.

Margaret: Oh... Maybe I should thank you. I never would have done it if you hadn't made me.

Mr. Ages: I made you try, but you succeeded all on your own and it was a very hard task.

Margaret: You thought I could do it all along, didn't you?

Mr. Ages: Yes, I did. I thought you could do it because you've already done such wonderful things.

Margaret: What do you mean?

Mr. Ages: You saved your brother's life. You found him food and shelter and you captured Christopher and figured out a plan to get you and Arthur back home.

Margaret: You mean holding him hostage.

Mr. Ages: I'm not suggesting that I approve of the plan, but under the circumstances, it was resourceful.

Margaret: I wouldn't have hurt him. Really.

(?)

Mr. Ages: I've got to go. I called Beatrice. I'd dance with her. I'll see you later.

Margaret: Okay.

(?)

Margaret: What is it? (?) I'm happy.

(?)

Margaret: Like this.

(?)

(?): No.

(?)

Chapter 14
(?)

Justin: Turn off the faucet!

(?)

Justin: What do you mean?

Christopher: It didn't do that much damage.

(?)

Christopher: It could have collapsed the lower section of the nest. If I hadn't stayed home from the party, we could have lost everything.

Isabella: Not only that, but all the flower in the storeroom was turned to paste. We were saving it for winter. I don't know what we'll do now.

Beatrice: There's time to harvest more and we can always make the acorn flower.

Christopher: He didn't know what he was doing. it's not fair to blame him.

Justin: I'm not blaming him. I'm blaming you. I thought you'd agreed to keep an eye on him. You let him wander away and look what happened.

Racso: Maybe we could put the collar on him. Humans do that for dogs and cats, you know.

Justin: No, Racso. He's not a pet.

Racso: I was just trying to help.

Justin: You were not you're trying --

Mr. Ages: The truth is, this isn't a good place for a human child. The boy will have to be watched carefully, so he doesn't do more damage.

(?)

Margaret: You can't make me work! I can do whatever I want to. I don't have to help you.

(?): I didn't say you did.

(?)

Margaret: Just leave me alone!

(?)

Margaret: We're all right!

(?)

Racso: What do you do when school's out? Do you play all day?

Margaret: I have to set the table and take out the trash, but after that, I can do whatever I want. Usually, Leon and I do stuff together. Most days in the summer, we take the bus downtown to his grandmother's house. She's this little black lady about a million years old and she lets us do things our parents would kill us for.

Racso: Like what?

Margaret: Like eat a gallon of ice cream all at once or dress up in the old clothes in her attic and wear them in the high rise next door. Her attic is full of neat stuff. Old science magazines and an old microscope and a wind-up photograph. She's got six cats too and a chihuahua.

Racso: What's a chihuahua?

Margaret: It's a little dog. Not much bigger than you. He's named Pedro. (?) Once we crawled up on the roof and made a whole bunch of paper airplanes, we wrote crazy notes in them and threw them down at people who were walking by.

Michelina: Did you get into trouble?

Margaret: Somebody did go and complain, but you know what Leon's gram said. She said, "I'm too old to worry about stuffed up people like you. You want to learn how to laugh. Then you wouldn't have to come banging on an old woman's door." You children come and have some cake.

Racso: What kind of cake?

Margaret: Coconut. That's Leon's favorite.

Michelina: Do coconuts grow here in the valley?

Margaret: They grow in Hawaii. They're big and white and waxy. Not like walnuts or hazelnuts.

Racso: And they used them in candy. Like mounds bars. They're delicious.

Michelina: I want to go to the city. Thorn Valley's no fun.

Margaret: I love the valley.

Michelina: You do?
