Plot
Tired of spring cleaning, Mole ventures out of his underground home. On the way out, he runs into Tom and Jerry and quickly befriends them. They go for a walk in the countryside and soon come to a river where they meet and befriend Ratty (Rat for short) who lives there. Rat takes Mole, Tom and Jerry on a picnic where they notice Badger (who appears behind the bushes) and ask him to join them, but after briefly noticing Tom and Jerry in concern, he just mutters "Hmmm! Company!" and walks off home (though he still is their friend). Rat starts to warn Mole, Tom and Jerry of the Wild Wood and its inhabitants, but they are interrupted by the arrival of the Chief Weasel and his henchman. While the Chief distracts them, his henchman steals a jar of potted meat and they make their getaway. Ratty then sees Otter teaching his son, Portly how to swim. He asks him and Portly to join them and they gladly accept.

Ratty then takes Mole, Tom and Jerry to visit his friend Mr. Toad at Toad Hall, and Toad himself asks them to come with him on a caravan trip on the Open Road; with his horse Alfred pulling it. On the group's first camp out for the night, Ratty really misses his home on the river but does not want to disappoint his friends. The next day, disaster strikes on the Open Road as a passing motorcar sends Alfred running away in a panic and the caravan into a ditch. Toad suddenly decides he no longer wants to travel by Alfred and the caravan cart, and thinks that motor cars are the only way to travel. As time goes by, Rat, Mole, Tom and Jerry can do nothing but look on as Toad buys and then almost immediately crashes his cars one after another. In winter, Rat, Mole, Tom and Jerry are extremely worried and they decide to call on Badger to see if he has any suggestions; if there's anyone Toad will listen to, it is Badger. But Rat falls asleep, refusing to take Mole, Tom and Jerry to the Wild Wood.

Mole then decides to go to the Wild Wood to see Badger and brings Tom and Jerry along. He asks a henchman weasel for directions to Badger's house, but he tells Mole, Tom & Jerry the wrong way to go and they become scared and lost. Mole becomes so scared, he runs into Tom & Jerry and they all role down a hill. Mole's cry for Rat echoed and back at the river bank, it wakes him up. Ratty soon notices Mole, Tom and Jerry's absence and finds a note written by Mole telling him where he and Tom and Jerry have gone. Rat takes some pistols and a cudgel and hurries along to the Wild Wood to find them. After Rat finds Mole, Tom and Jerry, they literally stumble across Badger's house (Mole hurts his foot on Badger's door scraper buried in the snow) and knocks on the door. Badger, annoyed at his relaxing night being disturbed, opens the door and gets ready to tell off whoever it is who has interrupted his rest, but on seeing that it is Rat, Mole, Tom and Jerry outside, he lets them in. They warm themselves in front of the fire and Badger offers them each a hot drink. They discuss Toad's careless driving.

The next morning, the river bankers (including Otter), Jerry and Tom turn up at Toad Hall and try to tell Toad that what he is doing is wrong. They attempt to make him promise that he will never go near a motor car again. But Toad won't listen to Badger's advice, so the group locks Toad in his bedroom; ensuring they guard him day and night. The next day, Toad feigns (fake) illness and asks Ratty to fetch a lawyer. Taking advantage of the distraction, Toad then escapes and Rat, Badger, Mole, Otter, Tom and Jerry chase Toad but can't find him. Toad stops a motorist Reggie (who consistently mistakes him for a frog) and his wife Rosemary, tricks them and steals their car, and shouts insults at a policeman, calling him "Fat face!" after nearly running them over. Meanwhile, Mole becomes homesick and he, Tom, Jerry, Ratty and Otter visit Mole End, and spend Christmas there. Some Caroling field mice (Including Tuffy) turn up and after they have finish their song, Rat, Otter, Mole, Tom and Jerry invite them inside for a Christmas feast, but they don't have very good news to share. When Tuffy tells Rat, Mole and Otter that Toad has been arrested, Tom and Jerry overhear. They are consumed with guilt for their friend.

Meanwhile, in the court, a magistrate named Mrs. Carrington-Moss sentenced Toad to "twelve months for the theft, three years for furious driving, and fifteen years for the cheek", with another year added for "being green" which makes "twenty years" in jail. Tom and Jerry show up and try to prove that it was really the Chief Weasel who put him up to it, but the Chief deceives Mrs. Carrington-Moss into believing that they were Toad's accomplices. Mrs. Carrington-Moss thinks so, and the magistrate orders Tom and Jerry to share the same punishment with Toad. With Toad, Tom and Jerry out of the way, the Chief Weasel and his minions sneak into Toad Hall where Badger was in charge. They knock out Badger, toss him out into the snow and take charge Toad Hall for themselves.

The Jailer's Daughter, Clarabelle, feels sorry for Toad, Tom, and Jerry. She helps them escape by disguising them as "washerwomen". Toad acts his way as the humble "washerwoman" into a train driver at a local railway giving him and his friends a free ride home with the cat and mouse, but it isn't long until another train with the Police, Reggie, Rosemary, Mrs. Carrington-Moss and the Clerk (Droopy) are after them. Toad is found out but the engine driver still lets him, Tom and Jerry escape, not willing to return them to the police. However, Tuffy arrives to show the chasers the evidence that he somehow managed to get ahold of from the Weasels. Finally realizing that Tom and Jerry were telling the truth, the chasers decide to give the prisoners a full pardon.

Meanwhile, Toad and his gang meet up with a bargewoman named Mary who brings them on as long as Toad who she thought was a washerwoman would clean her washing. But Toad's antics reveal his identity to Mary, who views amphibians as vermin and throws him and his friends overboard. Luckily, the horse dragging the barge turns out to be Alfred who Toad sets free and they head to Toad Hall.

Toad calls in at Ratty's on the way home and Rat tells him the Weasels have over thrown Badger and taken over Toad Hall. Toad is upset after losing his ancestral home, but Badger has a plan. They team up with Otter and Alfred. The next night, the animals sneak through the secret tunnel and enter the banquet hall. They fight the weasels and drive them away (except Toad, Tom and Jerry who are fighting the Weasels on the chandeliers). But they manage to fall on top of the Chief Weasel and he runs away, not before swearing revenge on the eight animals. However, Mrs. Carrington-Moss and the police arrive with Clarabelle, Reggie, Rosemary, Tuffy, and the other field mice to corner the Weasels. The fat face constable tells them that they will have revenge on no one and they are arrested for framing Mr. Toad. Mrs. Carrington-Moss thanked Toad and his friends, especially Tom and Jerry, for doing what was right, and wonderingly asked how she could thank them. Toad states his promise that he will correct his wrongs by sending his some of his money as gifts to her, the washerwoman and the engine driver, as well as buying Reggie and Rosemary a new motorcar, Clarabelle a golden watch, and Mary a new horse. He even reminded them and his friends of how God created Earth, and them on it, saying that all life deserves blessing from him, so do themselves. With that, the animals and humans cheered with the their victory shouts: "God Bless Us All! Light Conquers Darkness! Let There Be Harmony Forever!"

In the spring, Badger, Mole, Otter, Portly and Ratty settle down and think of the peaceful future, until Toad flies by in his new "Flying Machine" with Tom and Jerry on board. Alfred thinks that he is now finally considered, but the other river bankers are enraged until Toad's machine engine runs out. Everyone then becomes horrified as they watch Toad, Tom and Jerry fall into the river along with the plane. During the end credits, the river bankers are pulling Toad, Tom and Jerry out of the river.

Opening Credits/Badger's Narration/Mole's Spring Cleaning
Mr. Badger (Narrating): I remember the adventure well. It began on a seemingly ordinary day on England.... with a seemingly ordinary mole who worked hard. But even ordinary people can do greatness.

A Picnic/Badger and the Weasels/Otter and Portly Join In
Ratty: Where is the potted meat?

On the Open Road (reprise)/A Terrible Road Accident
Ratty: You scoundrels! You villains! You highway men! You noodles! You twits! You.... you irresponsible, arrogant road-hogs! You almost hit someone! I'll report you to the police! I'll get you, I will! You rotters!

Mole: Toad, are you okay? I'm sure we can find Alfred and get the caravan mended.

Mr. Toad: (laughs) Alfred, caravan, what do I need them for? Now that is the only way to travel. Here today, there tomorrow. Poop, poop.

Ratty: Uh-oh, Mole, he's got a craze. A new one. A craze for motorcars.

Lost in the Wild Wood/Badger's Home
Badger (narrating): As the snow fell deeply outside, Rat, Mole, Tom and Jerry sat in the parlor of Ratty's house, over their warming tea, toast and blackberry jam.

Ratty: (toasting the bread, sighs) We really must do something about Toad.

Mole: Oh, yes. Um, what should we do exactly, Ratty?

Ratty: Well, there's only one person that Toad would take notice of and that's Badger. *turns the other side of the bread* We must go and see him.

Mole: Yes! How about now, Ratty? What do you think, Tom and Jerry?

(Tom and Jerry nods to make yes)

Ratty (yawns): No, no. It's too late now. Maybe tomorrow. Besides Badger lives in the middle of the Wild Wood underground. (Ratty falls asleep).

(Mole takes the bread out of Ratty's hand and places it on his late, then turns to Tom & Jerry).

Mole: Come on, Tom. Come on, Jerry. We're going to the Wild Wood to find Mr. Badger's house and ask him what we should do about Toad.

(Mole, Tom and Jerry quietly leave and put on their winter clothes and head out to the Wild Wood to find Badger's house).

(Mole, Tom and Jerry walk up to a Henchman Weasel whistling).

Mole: Excuse me. Is this the way to Mr. Badger's house?

Henchman Weasel: Oh it is, sir. Just straight on. You and your two chaps here just can't miss it.

Mole: Thank you. This way, Tom & Jerry.

Ratty: Oh, Moley, Tom and Jerry. Gone to the Wild Wood alone. As did my father .... and weasels devoured him. Well, I refuse to let it happen to my friends.

Mr. Badger: Now the very next time this happens I will be very angry. Who is it this time disturbing me on such a peaceful night like tonight? Speak up, whoever you are.

Mr. Badger: Arrogance can lead to pain, Ratty. This is proof. This underground network was once a city. Long ago, Romans roamed it..... and eventually fell to their own arrogance and greed.

Straightening Out Toad/"Toad is Getting Away!"
Mr. Toad: Ahh! Good winter morning, you fellows, Thomas and Jerry. I'm glad you've all come for a jolly spin in my new... (sees his friends looking furious) Oh, a jolly spin in my new... uh... (gulps) I..in my new...

Otter: In your new motorcar you're trying to say, Toad? We are not exactly.

Mr. Badger: I agree with Otter. You won't be needing this machine, because I shall send it back.

Mr. Toad: What? Sending it back? I say, you can't do that to my car, you dirty-handed sons of...

Mr. Badger: (cutting off Toad) Silence! Don't say such words like that!

Mr. Toad: (feeling ashamed and embarrassed with himself) Whoops.

Mr. Badger: You will have to promise us, that you will never touch another motorcar. Will you do it?

Mr. Toad (stubborn): Shan't! I won't do it!

Mr. Badger: We'll see about that. Rat, Mole, Otter, Thomas and Jerry, take him!

(Tom, Jerry, Rat, Mole and Otter grabs Toad and carries him back into Toad Hall with Badger following them from behind)

Mr. Toad: (struggling to free himself) Wha..? Ow! Ouch! Hey! I say! Stop it! What are you doing to me? Unhand me! (grunts) Release me! (angry yelling)

Ratty: It's for your own good, Toad.

Mole: We're sorry, Toad! But really, it is!

Mr. Toad: No! That's very mean and traitorous, and so are you all of you!

Mole: No, we're not! We're your friends!

Otter: And we have to do what's best for you. Just calm down, Toad. Don't fight us.

(Badger picks up Toad by his arm)

Mr. Badger: We will see whether you come out of this library. The same Toad you know before. Jerry, Thomas, come with me. Excuse us, please, fellas.

(Tom and Jerry follow Badger into the library)

Toad: Let go, Badger! You can't make me! I'd rather have you kill me!

Mr. Badger: I will certainly not. (Closes the library doors and tosses Toad to the ground)

Mr. Toad: Ow!

Mr. Badger: You'll know it must come to this! Sooner or later, Toad. You brought all this on yourself. You ignored all the warnings your elders lent you. You abused all the wealth your father left you. You ruined our good name, and this of your people with your reckless driving, and your smashes, and your pride, and your rows with police. Your mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, all before you. They'd be ashamed of your actions, especially because you did the rash actions of dealing with the Chief Weasel. He's playing you. Using you as he used Moly to lure Ratty to a trap. He'd betray you. Your actions caused chaos. Don't even think that's all the wrongs you have done, Toad. Independence is all very well, but we animals never allow our friends to make fools of themselves beyond a certain limit, and that limit you've reached. Now there's time to redeem.

Mr. Toad: (sobbing) You're right, Badger!

Mr. Badger: Now, now, Toady, don't cry. You're a good fellow. You have many respects, and I don't want to be too hard on you. I will have once more effort to put you to reason and so will Thomas Cat and Jerry Mouse.

Mr. Toad: I know what you three are doing. And I am a foolish creature, and a stupid animal. No! Never again! Never...EVER again! (sniffs)

(Ratty, Mole and Otter look with each other until Badger, Toad, Jerry and Tom come out of the library)

Mr. Badger: My friends? We are pleased to inform you that Toad has seen the error of his ways. He is truly sorry for what he has done, and perceives the folly of it all.

Mole: That is good news. Isn't that right, Otter?

Otter: Yes, Mole. At least, he would never kill any animals or humans alike, not one.

Ratty: Do you, Toad? Do you REALLY?

Mr. Toad: (thinks for a moment and then finally speak up) NO! I'm not sorry at all!

(Ratty, Mole, Otter, Tom and Jerry gasp)

Mr. Toad: (laughing) And it wasn't folly, it was simply glorious! (laughing)

Mr. Badger: (shocked and outraged) WHAT?! You backsliding animal! Didn't you tell me just now, in THERE?!

Mr. Toad: Oh, yes, yes, in THERE! I'd have said anything in there. You're so eloquent, dear Badger, and so moving, and so convincing, and put all your points so frightfully well—you can do what you like with me in THERE, and you know it. But I've been searching my mind since, and going over things in it, and I find that I'm not a bit sorry or repentant really, so it's no earthly good saying I am now! (turns to Tom and Jerry) Is it?

(Tom and Jerry shook their heads to say no)

Mr. Toad: What Thomas and Jerry say correctly is that I lied to you back in this library here. How is it possible to tell a lie? I only pretended to change my ways.

Mr. Badger: Then do you actually mean you're still refusing to stay away from any more motorcars?

Mr. Toad: Exactly! I have already kept my promise after seeing the first motorcar on the road! I will have another one somehow, and you all can do nothing to stop me!

Mr. Badger: Nothing, eh? Maybe your bedroom will hold you!

Ratty: (walks into Toad's bedroom holding a tray with a sandwich and a glass of wine, smiles) Time for lunch, Toady.

Mr. Toad: (weakened groaning)

Ratty: Badger? Mole? Otter? I think Toad's ill!

Mr. Badger: Are you sure, Rat?

Toad Steals the Motorcar/Mole is Homesick
(Car horn honks)

Mr. Toad: Ah-ha.

(tires screeching)

Mr. Toad: I say, I wonder if you could help me. I'm having a spot of bother with my own car.

Reggie: Oh? What sort of bother?

Mr. Toad: Um... em... it's the... uh... crankshaft... it's um... flat.

Reggie: Really? Ah ha! I should be able to fix that.

Rosemary: Oh, shall I come, too, Reggie?

Reggie: Yes, Rosemary, dear. Uh, where is your motorcar, kind sir?

Toad: Oh, it's over there, in the largest ditch of ice. If you'd just take a look at it, please?

Reggie: Oh, certainly old bean. Anything for a fellow motorist.

(But as soon as they move away from their car, Mr. Toad gets in, puts it in gear and drives away, shocking Reggie and Rosemary)

Mr. Toad: (laughing maniacally)

Reggie: Oh, I say!

Rosemary: Oh, Reggie!

[They see Mr. Toad driving down the road erratically, laughing, honking the horn]

Constable: (arriving on a bicycle) Now then? What's going on here, you two?

Reggie: A frog there flagged me down and made up a story about a "flat crankshaft." As soon as my wife and I got out of our car, he drove away in it.

Toad: ''Poop! Poop-poop!''

Reggie: I say, that's him right there in our car! He's coming back right towards us!

[Toad roars past with another laughter, knocking the police officer and his bicycle over, and Reggie into the arms of his wife]

Toad: OUT OF MY WAY, YOU FAT FACE!

Constable: (shocked) NOW THEN?!

Reggie: (surprised) I say!

Rosemary: Oh, Reggie!

Constable: (getting angrier): Why, for Heaven's sake! I'm not really a Fat Face! (becomes curious and looks back to the motorists) Am I?

(Reggie and Rosemary just shrug)

Ratty: Moley! Moley, where are you going? MOLEY!

Otter: Stop where you are, Mole!

Twenty-Year Sentence/The Weasel's Next Phase/Badger in Charge of Toad Hall
Mrs. Carrington-Moss: To my mind, the only difficulty that presents itself in this otherwise, very clear case is how we can possibly make it sufficiently hot... (sees Toad standing at the dock, crying) ...for the incorrigible rogue or hardened ruffian by the name of Mr. Toad of Toad Hall, whom we see sobbing on the dock before us.

(The weasels in the Jury box mockingly cry out boo-hoos, but Mrs. Carrington-Moss bangs her gavel a few times)

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Be quiet! I now speak to the prisoner. (looks back at Toad who is still crying) Mr. Toad? Will you stop weeping and listen carefully?

Mr. Toad: (sniffs) Ye..yes, Mrs. Carrington-Moss. Sorry.

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: You were charged with stealing a motorcar, driving to the public danger, and for insulting a leading member of the police. Is is true that you just called him a Fat Face?

Mr. Toad: Yes, it's true. (thinking to himself) [''But insulting doesn't mean any harm. What's the deal anyway?'']

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Then in this case, that's all the clearest evidence. That's why you are found guilty too.

Toad: Surely we can talk about this? Tea and muffins?

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: (annoyed with Toad's attempted suggestion) No. There will not be any excuses for this crime you have done, especially teatimes. (points the gavel at Reggie and Rosemary) These owners of the motorcar which you destroyed state heir complaints to me. For it seems to them, that was your attempt to have vengeance on them.

Toad: (outraged) Oh, c'mon, ma'am! This is all a mess-up! It serves the motorists right for breaking my cart and spooking my horse!

Reggie: Well, we didn't mean to. We were just passing by.

Rosemary: Besides, don't you think you're even enough, Mr. Toad?

(Toad laughs and so do the weasels, only to stop when Mrs. Carrington-Moss yell out a command to tell everyone to be quiet with six bangs of her gavel)

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Silence! Silence in the court! This discussion is over. Clerk? Please tell me, what is the very stiffest penalty that we can impose for each of these offences without giving Mr. Toad the benefit of any doubt, of course? There isn't any.

(The clerk, Droopy, looks up to Mrs. Carrington-Moss quietly)

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Come on, Clerk, speak. How long do we sentence our prisoner to?

Clerk (Droopy): (clears his throat) Supposing you were to say twelve months for the theft, which is mild; and three years for the furious driving, which is lenient; and fifteen years for the cheek, which was pretty bad.

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Namely, calling him Fat Face!

Constable: (Coughs) Now then.

Clerk (Droopy): And that adds up to..

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Nineteen years!

Toad: Nineteen years!?

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Yes, Mr. Toad. But because you're green by the skin, we should add another year. The total? Twenty years!

(The weasels cheer until the courtroom door suddenly bursts open, with Tom & Jerry standing there in lawyer suits, looking confident and they are holding a notepad saying Stop!)

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Now what? Who dares barge into my court?

Toad: Tom and Jerry?

(Tom & Jerry walk up to Toad and write on their notepad, Don't worry, Toad, we found out that the Chief Weasel set you up and we'll tell this to the judge.)

Toad: Thank you, you two.

(Tom & Jerry walk up to Carrington-Moss who looks down on them.)

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: And what do you have to say, kitty cat and little mouse?

(Tom writes on the notepad It was the Chief Weasel who set up Mr. Toad!)

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: (Gasps) Really? (Turns her attention to weasels)

Chief Weasel: What? Me?

(Jerry writes on the notepad He's the victim!)

Chief Weasel: Don't listen to them, they're lying.

(Tom & Jerry write No, we're not! on their notepad)

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Nice try, cat and mouse. You two are also to be sentenced to locked up for twenty years for trying to frame the weasels and stealing motor cars with Mr. Toad.

Toad: (Defeated) Oh.

Toad Misses Toad Hall/Help from Clarabelle/Disguised As Washer Women
Clarabelle: There's no need to cry, Toad. We all mess up. But more important is we learn from errors. Dress up as my aunt.

Toad: But I'd look daft. Why?

Clarabelle: How else would you get out before those rogues steal your house?

Toad: We'll look ridiculous.

Clarabelle: You don't have any other choice.

Mr. Toad: Okay.

[Spike the jailer is cleaning handcuffs, when Toad & Tom appear, disguised as washer women, Jerry is hiding on Tom's head under Tom's Turban-style hat].

Spike: Goodnight, Maud.

Toad (falsetto): Er, goodnight, Spike, ol' chap.

[Toad & Tom quickly runaway as Spike continues cleaning handcuffs, until he realizes he's been tricked].

Spike: Wait a minute, Ol Chap? Maud?!

Train Chase/The Song of Mr. Toad
Mrs. Carrington-Moss (off-screen): Stop them!

[Toad, Tom & Jerry arrive at the train station. Toad keeps his washer woman clothes on, but Tom takes his off. The main three quietly sneak past Reggie & Rosemary (who are checking the scheduele) and they approach the engine driver.]

Engine Driver (thick Scottish accent): Hello, madam.

Toad (falsetto): Oh, sir, I am a poor unhappy washer woman and I've lost all my money and I must get home tonight. Oh dear. (Sobbing).

Engine Driver: Why that's awful. Got a family waiting for you, ma'am?

Toad (falsetto): Eh? Oh, yes. They're so worried about me right now.

Engine Driver: Alright. That's against company regulations to bring aboard hitch hikers, but climb aboard.

Toad (falsetto): Can I bring my two pets on board. My pet cat and mouse, please?

Engine Driver: Well, it's also against the rules to bring animals on board, but I don't see why not.

Constable: (off-screen): Now then!

Policeman (off-screen): There they are!

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Stop them!

Toad (normal voice): Uh-oh.

(The train sets off and the signal changes to green).

Rosemary: Oh, Reggie!

Reggie: I say, Rosemary. Isn't that the frog who stole our car? (Looks at the end of the train and sees Tom & Jerry on board too while trying to avoid being seen by them). And weren't those two the Cat & Mouse working for him?

Rosemary: Yes, it was actually, Reggie.

Toad (laughs, sings): The world has held great heroes, as history books have shown. But never would they have doubt in faith compared with that of Toad.

[Tom & Jerry look out from the back of the cab and see a train with Carrington-Moss, The Police, Reggie & Rosemary and Droopy on board, chasing after them].

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Fifty years next time!

Reggie: I say, you car stealing amphibian! Where's my car?!

Rosemary: Oh, Reggie.

Constable: Stop them!

Toad (still singing): The clever men at Oxford know all is to be known, but none of them know half as much as the intelligent Mr. Toad.

[The train goes through a tunnel with the other train still following from behind].

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Seventy Years!

Reggie: I say! You there, stop!

Constable: NOOOOOW THEN!

Toad (still singing): The animals sat in the ark, their tears of torrents flowed. Who was it said There's land ahead? Encouraging Mr. Toad! Encouraging Mr. Toad.

Engine Driver: What's going on? You're a funny lot of washer women and there's a train following us.

Toad (falsetto): A train? Oh dear, kind, Mr. Engine Driver, I'm not really a washer woman (normal voice, laughing): No. No I'm a poor and unfortunate Toad and the Cat & Mouse here, they're not really my pets and we're being pursued by the law, headed by Mrs. Carrington-Moss, the Magistrate.

Engine Driver: The law, eh? What did you do?

Toad: I only....borrowed a motorcar.

Engine Driver: Borrowed, eh? I don't own any motorcars.

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Stop them!

Engine Driver: Then I don't own would be order to boot on me own engine. (The driver puts the brakes on). Go on! Hop off with you lot! (He kicks Toad, Tom & Jerry off his train and they fall down a slope).

Toad: Ah ha! (laughs as he watches the train with the law goes by and waves bye-bye).

(The train with the law continues to chase the train Toad, Tom & Jerry were on).

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: Stop them!

Reggie: I say!

Rosemary: Oh, Reggie.

(Tuffy waves a flag in the middle of the track and the train with the chasers stops)

Tuffy: Wait!

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: What do you want?

Tuffy: Look!

(He shows a folder to the chasers, Mrs. Carrington-Moss takes the folder and looks in it, she is surprised)

Mrs. Carrington-Moss: What do you know? That cat and mouse were telling the truth. The weasels really did set up Mr. Toad.

Clerk (Droopy): I guess we can arrange a full pardon for them, including the toad.

Toad: That should keep them busy. Come on, you chaps, we've got to get back to Toad Hall.

(Tom & Jerry nod in agreement)

(Toad leads the way and Tom & Jerry follow)

The Barge Woman/Payback Time
Mary: No toads on my nice, clean barge! Get out, you slimy freak!

Toad: How dare you say that! Rude woman! That is a frog, you're thinking of!

Mary: I don't care, I still won't have you or your cat and mouse friends on my boat! OUT! OR I WILL BEAT ALL OF YOU UP!

(She holds up a oar and throws Toad overboard, she throws Tom and Jerry overboard as well)

Alfred: Toad, Tom, Jerry! There you are, you lot.

Toad: Alfred, what are you doing here?

Alfred: It's a long story. Unhitch me, quick. Hop on my back, I'll get us out of here.

(Toad unhitches his horse, then he, Tom and Jerry mount and ride off, Mary is shocked)

Mary: Come back here, you thieves! That's my horse!

Alfred: I'm not your horse, ma'am! I'm Mr. Toad's!

Toad: Farewell, you oar hitter!

(Tom & Jerry blow raspberries at her)

(Mary growls in frustration and shakes her fist angrily at Toad, Tom, Jerry and Alfred)

"The Weasels Have Taken Toad Hall"/The Plan
Mr. Toad: Chief Weasel set me up. Badger, I should've heeded your warning. That rogue was a lying, treasonous fraud. A rogue. Oooooh.

Mr. Badger: Enough, Toad. No more tears.

Mr. Toad: (sobbing) I can't help it! Toad Hall, my beautiful home is now lost to the weasels! Lost forever!

Mr. Badger: Lost forever? Nonsense. (holds out the scroll) I have a plan.

(Toad sees Mole as a washerwoman through the telescope.)

Mole (falsetto): Hello, Toad.

Toad: Why, that's...

Mole (normal): I say you fellows I had such a time.

Toad: The... Oh. Where have you been, Mole?

Mole: Why, to Toad Hall, of course. I marched up there as Boulder's brass. Good morning, gentlemen. Said I to the centuries, very respectful. Want any washing done? And the sergeant he says to me Run away, my good woman, run away. Run away?, says I. It won't be me that'll be running away short time for now. You're going to be attacked. (laughing).

Otter: You didn't say that now, Mole.

Mole: I said a lot more. 100,000 blood thirsty Badgers, I said, Are going to attack Toad Hall with 6 boatloads of rats on to the tea, cats, mice, moles, otters, wild horses, and a big army of Toads known as the die hard or death of glory Toads will storm the orchard yelling for vengeance. There won't be much left for you to wash, I said, By the time they're done with you, (laughing hysterically).

Toad: Oh, Mole, you silly underground animal, you ruined the surprise. You've been and spoiled everything!

Mole: Toad, shortly Badger told you.

Badger: Mole, you have done well. I am exceedingly pleased with you.

Toad: What? But...

Badger: Now it all depends upon tonight.

Otter: Badger's right, chaps. But how are we going to get into Toad Hall without being seen by the Weasels?

Badger: Leave that to me, Otter.

Alfred: Never underestimate a small creature.

Secret Tunnel/When the Toad Came Home
Mr. Badger: (annoyed and impatient:) Toad!

Toad: Hmm?

Mr. Badger: One more sound out of you... (points his gun at Toad) ...and back you go.

Toad: Oh, sorry, Badger. I guess I'll go back to Ratty's house to start all over. (prepares to leave) Catch you later.

Mr. Badger: Wait, Toad. You don't have to start all over. We need you to help us fight the weasels? Remember?

Toad: Why, yes. I almost forgot.

Mr. Badger: Now come with me, Toad, and be quiet, this time.

Toad: Alright, Badger.

The Battle for Toad Hall/"Well Done, Toad!"/Toad Makes his Promises
Chief Weasel (angry): Darn you, Mr. Toad! You and your friends may have beaten us, but we aren't done with you yet! Toad Hall will be mine again, and I will steal it back from even, evening if it means killing you first!

Mrs. Carrington-Moss (off-screen): We think not, Chief Weasel!

Toad's Flying Machine/"Always Had and Always Would"/Closing Credits (Theme from The Wind in the Willows)
Mr. Toad: (laughing) Hello, you fellows!

Ratty: You maniac!

Otter: You psycho! You scared Portly!

Mr. Badger (last lines): Lock him up!

Mole: Toad! This time you've gone too far!

Toad: How could I be too far?! This is the life in the air!

Alfred: Well, I think I'm satisfied now.

Mr. Badger (narrating): We all turned, looked at one another, then sighed and smiled. And the river, and us riverbankers, and Toad, and of course...Tom and Jerry went on about our business just as we always had, and always would. Until there was trouble again.

[Toad continues flying in his plane, until the engine starts to sputter].

Ratty (last lines): Oh, no.

Badger: (growls).

Mole (last lines): Oh, dear.

Otter (last lines): Oh, dear. This won't look good.

[Toad, Tom & Jerry's faces are covered in black soot and Toad is the only one coughing. The engine finally dies. Toad just shrugs while Tom holds up an Uh-Oh sign and the plane falls down and crashes in the pond].

Toad (off-screen, last lines): I say you chaps! (laughs). You just the lads I wanted to Ratty and Otter and you, too, Mole. (laughing).

[The credits appear in the sky and The Wind in the Willows theme by Ralph McTell plays].

Ralph McTell (singing): ''The Wind in The Willows sang softly to me. Follow my voice wherever it leads, from mountains, to valleys, to deep rolling seas...born on the winds of a breeze. Spin me a dream, woven silver and gold. From sunshine and shadows, and days long ago, where people are memories and stories unfold. Willows, the tales you have told me''

Ralph McTell and Chorus (singing): ''Wind in the Willows, you just seem to know. Who you can turn to? And which way you go...''

Ralph McTell (singing): ''To unwind your wonderous mind? Wind in The Willows take me there.''

(Instrumental theme)

Ralph McTell and Chorus (singing): ''Wind in the Willows, you just seem to know. Who you can turn to? And which way you go...''

Ralph McTell (singing): Where people are memories, and stories unfold?

Ralph McTell and Chorus (singing): Wind in the Willows take me there.

Ralph McTell (singing): Wind in the Willows take me there.
