Dialogue [cornering a cricket] Copper: There you are, Tod. Tod: Shh. I found one. [peering through grass] Copper: No way! Look at the size of that thing. Tod: Sure is ugly. Copper: It's a monster! Tod: I can smell its evil breath from here. [sniffs] Copper: No, uh, that's me. I had socks for lunch. Tod: Ugh! Copper: Uh, how about you take this one? Tod: Come on. We're a team, right? Copper: Wanna shake on it? Tod: Shake on it. Ready... Copper: Set... Tod and Copper: GO! Widow Tweed: [chuckles] You're going to lose your head one of these days, Amos Slade. Amos Slade: It's my head, woman! Goodboy. [chuckles] Okay, Chief?! Get goin'! Copper: [hearing the Singin' Strays rehearsing] There's that sound again. Sounds pretty good. Tod: Sounds like somebody got their tail stuck in a door. Cash: [describing Dixie under his breath] Voice like an angel... with looks to match. Granny Rose: Oh, please. Dixie: [after getting whacked by a loose floorboard] Darn this one-horse, two-bit, free-timing fair! Cash: Now, Dixie, it ain't like it smacked your singing. Can we get back to rehearsing, please? Dixie: I refuse to work under these conditions. Granny Rose: Uh-oh. Here we go. Cash: Well, I'll tell you what, Dixie. You rehearse, and afterwards I'll give that piece of wood a good ol' talking-to. Floyd: I got 2 bones on Dixie. Waylon: I'll cover that. Dixie: It just so happens I am a professional, and my standards... Cash: Oh, now Dixie, darling, you put on that same old record every day. Ain't it just about wore out by now? Dixie: You have some nerve talking to me that way, Cash. If your ear were any more tin, they could can beans with it. Cash: Well, you listen to me, Miss Fancy Tail. In a couple of days, we will be in front of that talent scout from the Grand Old Opry. Dixie: I get possibly maimed for life, and all you can talk about is the Grand Old Opry? Cash: Oh, now, Dixie... Dixie: I'll be in my trailer. Cash: Darling, we got a show to do. You can't just walk... [Dixie left] ...away. Dixie: Just what do you think you're doing? Cash: A little audience participation. And that kid wowed em! Dixie: Kid? What kid? Copper: Bye, Mr. Cash. Cash: [laughs] That kid. Granny Rose: Little critter was heaven-sent. Dixie: That sang my lead? Cash: Oh, no. He didn't just sing it. He sang it. Dixie: You don't mean to tell me that that wet-behind-the-ears puppy could ever take my place in a band. Cash: I didn't say that. Although he does have that refreshing, blooming youth about him. Dixie: [taking this as a comment about her appearance] [gasps] Just what exactly are you saying? Cash: Well what do you think I'm saying? Dixie: You'd better not be saying what I think you're saying. Cash: I think you know what I think I'm saying. Dixie: I think you'd better know that what you're saying isn't what I think you're saying. Cash: Why do you always... Dixie: Only 'cause you never... Cash: What if I said to you... Dixie: You know what I say? Cash: Ooh! You know, this is just like the time when you... Dixie: [stammering] You'd better not bring that up. Cash: Hmph! Well, I think we've both been perfectly clear. Dixie: [to Cash] Ooh, perfectly. I quit! Cash: Huh? Olivia Farmer: Hi, there. Winchell P. Bickerstaff: [laughing] Well, who are you? Olivia Farmer: Olivia Farmer, designated chaperone to Winchell P. Bickerstaff, talent scout from the Grand Old Opry. That's you. Winchell P. Bickerstaff: Ahem. Chaperone, huh? Olivia Farmer: I'm working to get my community service merit badge. Winchell P. Bickerstaff: Well, that's quite admirable, little lady. Olivia Farmer: Then I'll have more than Sally Ann Merrybaum. [angrily] Thinks she's so great. [Cash is trying to apologize to Dixie after she quit] Cash: Oh, Dixie, you ain't mad over a little joshing are ya? I was only teasing you. You know how I feel about you. Dixie: Yeah, you have a lousy way of showin' it! [slams the bus door] Cash: I am trying to kiss and make up here. Now, won't you please accept my apology? Dixie: Blow it out your ear!? [slams the bus door again] Cash: Alright, you diva dog, but I'm in charge of this band, and ain't no 1's indispensable! Dixie: You're in charge? [laughs] Which one of us is in the driver's seat? Cash: Now, listen, you-- ! [Dixie slams the bus door on Cash's nose and mouth] Now you've got me riled. Tod: Uh... Copper: [to Tod] Course he can sing. Show him, Tod. Tod: [singing] ♪ We're in a-- ♪ AAHHHH!!! [people screaming] Olivia Farmer: Wasn't he amazing, the way he ate fire, Mr. Bickerstaff? [looking up at his face, which is out of view of the camera] Maybe you shouldn't have stood so close. Winchell P. Bickerstaff: [coughs as his face is singed] Now you tell me. Dixie: Ok! Cash: Hey, Dixie. Dixie: You come crawling back. Cash: Oh, uh, by the way, you can't quit, you're fired. Dixie: [Cash leaves] Oh! What?! You can't fire me! I already quit! Cash, you get back-- [the door slams on her nose and mouth; just like Cash earlier] Now you've got me riled. Zelda: Honey, I don't blame you for feeling hurt. Dixie: Hurt? What do you mean by that? You think Cash could hurt me? [Zelda gives Dixie a skeptical look] Dixie: Well, there's more than one way to skin a cat. [Zelda clears her throat] Dixie: Uh, no offense. [After the fair is destroyed, the Singing Strays has been failed all this time] Copper: What are we gonna do now, Cash? Cash: [angrily to Copper for falsely lying] You're gonna go home. Copper: But...the band-- Cash: Don't you get it?! You're fired! [Copper gets shocked and runs off in the corner and laying down in ashamed] Granny Rose: You know what? You used to be a lot more fun to be around. [angrily leaves Cash] Cash: Oh, now, come on. Where you goin'? Hey... [angrily] Oh, yeah? Fine. We don't need you either. Right, boys? Waylon: Sorry, Cash. [sadly leaves] Floyd: It just ain't no fun anymore. [sadly leaves with Waylon] [Thunder rumbling] Floyd: Why does it always rain when things go wrong? Waylon: I don't know, Floyd. Cash: [heartbroken] Happy now? [Cash leaves as Dixie looks down ashamed. Tod then walk to Copper, who is sulking] Tod: [apologize to Copper] Copper, I'm sorry. I just want to- Copper: [angrily to Tod] You ruined everything! Amos Slade: [calls to Copper] Copper?! [Copper walks away from Tod, who watches Amos Slade comes up to pick him up and leaves] Amos Slade: Attaboy. Let’s get out of here. [Tod becomes heartbroken, and then Widow Tweed, who arrives and picks up] Widow Tweed: Oh, Tod. There, there, now. Dixie: [arrives Copper's house after he got fired and Tod's fault] Copper? Copper: [saw Dixie] Dixie? What are you doin' here? Dixie: [tells Copper the truth about her plan] I just thought you should know that blowin' your cover was my idea. Not Tod's. I guess I just lost sight of what's really important. And, darlin', I'm awful sorry. He never wanted to hurt you. He just wanted you to be his friend again. Well... That's what I came to say. [Copper realizes his mistake for blaming Tod back at the fair and thinks he owes Tod an apology] Dixie: Well, there you go, Cash. You just got what you always wanted. Cash: Well maybe I had it all along. Dixie: [eyes widen] Well, what are you saying? Cash: Well, what do you think I'm saying? Dixie: Well, you'd better be saying what I think you're saying. Cash: Well, I think you know what I'm saying is what you think I'm saying. Dixie: Well, I thought you'd never ask.
