Whew! I'm lucky I didn't hit anything.
The Queen
Well, well, well, a newcomer! We don't have many visitors, but most people stay away from my valley. The people who do come—they like it here—least they never leave. Now, why did you come here?
Jack Horner
I come here to buy myself a chock load of plums, I did, and I've got lots of money here.
The Queen
Well, my dear boy, you've come to the right place. I own everything in the valley. Ahaha! Help yourself to the plums. Take all you want. Take more than you want. I'll have some of my people load your truck. ”

“ Haha! But I have a feeling you might want to stay here. There, you see? You see, you can't leave! You'll have to stay here and work for me! You can't even run up the mountain because it's so slippery! ”

“ Well, I know where there are plenty of plums, but they're in a distant part of Storyland called Plum Valley.
Jack Horner
Plum Valley? That's odd. I've never heard of such a place. How do you explain that?
Farmer
Well, nobody ever goes to Plum Valley. Lots of people have gone into the place, but nobody ever comes out. That's trouble, you know?
Jack Horner
But, if it's possible to get into the valley, it's certainly possible to get out. I'm gonna go there and buy all the plums, but first I'll call up Paddy Pelican. ”
