Narrator: "Homer Simpson has lived in TV Land for many years. He wouldn't want to be anywhere else. He likes every part of it. From the fields filled with flowers to the white sandy beaches. But there is one place that Homer always enjoyed visiting more than any other. His driver knew this too."
Homer's Driver: "Come on, Homer."
Narrator: "He would sometimes say."
Homer's Driver: "We've made good time today. We'll stop for a while by the forest."
Narrator: "Homer loved it here. The forest was full of broad oaks and tall pines.
Homer could remember the day long ago where he and Grandpa Dave brought some new trees to be planted and Scooby Doo and Sunshine helped haul them into place. Now he could see the trees growing amongst the others on the hillside. Homer always felt better for being here. He couldn't really explain why, but his driver understood."
Homer's Driver: "It's peaceful."
Narrator: "He said to Homer.
But one night, everything changed. The TV characters were resting in the house."
RS Mr. Conductor: "Listen."
Narrator: "Said RS Mr. Conductor."
RS Mr. Conductor: "Can you hear a strange whistling sound?"
Grandpa Dave: "It's the wind blowing outside our house."
Narrator: "Replied Grandpa Dave."
Grandpa Dave: "But I've never heard it like this before."
Schemer: "Do you know?"
Narrator: "Added Schemer."
Schemer: "If Garfield wasn't here now, I'd say it was him thundering by with the express flowers."
Narrator: "All the TV characters laughed, except Homer."
Homer: "I hope the wind won't harm the forest."
Narrator: "By morning, the fierce winds had gone, but the damage was done. Homer's driver came to see him in the house."
Homer's Driver: "Trees have fallen on the path. We must help clear the path."
Narrator: "Mario set off with the breakdown crane, and Homer followed.
Trees lay everywhere. The hillside now looked so bare. Homer felt sad."
Homer: "What will happen to all the animals who live here?"
Narrator: "He thought.
When Homer's wagons were full of logs, he took them to the timber mill where they would be turned into furniture and other things. Homer was glad the wood was being put to good use, but he was still sorry to lose part of his forest."
Grandpa Dave: "Oh dear."
Narrator: "Sighed Grandpa Dave to RS Mr. Conductor."
Grandpa Dave: "I wish there was something we can do to make things better again."
RS Mr. Conductor: "Yes, indeed."
Narrator: "Replied RS Mr. Conductor."
RS Mr. Conductor: "But what? We can't mend broken trees."
Narrator: "Grandpa Dave puffed slowly into the yard."
Mayor Adam West: "Hello, Grandpa Dave."
Narrator: "Said Mayor Adam West."
Mayor Adam West: "You do look glum."
Grandpa Dave: "I'm sad about the trees."
Narrator: "Said Grandpa Dave."
Grandpa Dave: "And so is Homer. The forest is a special place to him. Now some of it is gone."
Mayor Adam West: "We'll soon put that right. I have an important job for you, Grandpa Dave. I would like you to take some wagons to the forest."
Narrator: "When the wagons arrived, Grandpa Dave was delighted. They were full of splendid young trees all ready for planting."
Grandpa Dave: "This is the best job I've ever had."
Narrator: "Said Grandpa Dave happily.
When Homer returned, he was most surprised. There were Scooby Doo and Sunshine busily helping the workmen clear the torn stumps and branches."
Scooby Doo: "Look, Homer."
Narrator: "Called Scooby Doo."
Scooby Doo: "We're beginning again. The hillside will look better than ever before. You'll see."
Narrator: "Now Homer can see the new trees growing strong and tall, and the animals are coming back. Sometimes, everywhere is very quiet. And other times, Homer could hear leaves rustling, or a bird's wing brushing the air. Often he can hear the distance sound of children laughing. And always, he is happy here."
