Badger
- Badger: [Tod has just been left in the forest, and he darts into a burrow. He quickly backs out. A badger appears]
- [angry]
- Badger: Hold it, sonny! Back off! Consarnit! Wh-where do you think you're goin'?
- Adult Tod: [nervous] Oh. Oh excuse me! I-I-I was just trying to..
- Badger: You barge in on somebody's house like you own it! Tarry hootin' around the woods! Wakin' up folks in the middle of the night!
- Adult Tod: I honestly didn't know anybody lived here. And I...
- Badger: Well, you know it now! Now get of my property! Go on! Beat it!
- Badger: [Tod finds himself sitting on an entrance to a burrow. Something pushes him off. It's the badger. The badger looks around in anger and sees Tod] So! It's you again! You've barged in on me last night! And now you...
- Adult Tod: I... I didn't mean to!
- Badger: Just look at the mess you made.
- [Tod looks. The entrance collapses]
- Badger: [angrily] DAD GRANIT! YOU CLUMSY BONEHEAD!
- [the badger furiously pushes Tod into a ditch]
- Adult Tod: [apologetic] Sorry! It was an accident!
- Badger: [refusing to accept] Excuses. Excuses.
- Porcupine: [defending Tod] Mr. Digger, sir. It was so too an accident.
- Badger: [the badger turns to the porcupine, refusing to be spoken to this way] You keep out of this, you walking pin cushion!
- Porcupine: [the porcupine flinches. Then he frowns]
- [severely]
- Porcupine: Uh. You shouldn't be so grumpy to someone who's new in the neighborhood!
- Badger: A stranger, eh?
- [the badger turns to Tod]
- Badger: Why don't you go back where you came from?
- Adult Tod: [Tod pauses and frowns] Wha...
- [He stops. He then rolls his eyes. He turns around and starts to leave. He then pauses and looks back for a moment]
- Badger: Well go on! Get goin'! Get!
- [Tod sadly continues on his way. The porcupine sighs sadly and shakes his head]
