  Asked O'Keehan's prize.

  This is Hickory, explained Ray and Rufus.

  What? In surprise. I'm not a shrew, said Hickory. I'm a mouse.
• 1:08
  I just, I just haven't got a tail.

  Okie dokie, nodded wisely. Where do you live?

  Where? Okie dokie. Okie doke, nodded wisely. Where do you live?

  Where are your mum and dad? A big tear rolled down Hickory's face.

  No home or mum and dad either.
• 1:37
  Well, well, well.
• 1:39
  Don't worry, said Oki. I just know the perfect place for you.

  Oki took Hickory to Rose Kong and Kornracker's house. This is Hickory, he said.
• 1:57
  Then just Rutten Snot cornracker came running up.
• 2:02
  They were playing tag. Hickory laughed and chased after Rutten Snot.
• 2:08
  Tag! he cried, catching Snot.
• 2:11
  Snot wasn't very happy about being caught.
• 2:17
  You've got no tail, and you look more like a shrewd than a mouse,
• 2:22
  he said rudely. Hickory was,
• 2:27
  upset indeed.
• 2:33
  Rudely Hickory was very upset indeed He didn't feel like playing anymore He
• 2:41
  walked sadly away Spoilsport shouted,
• 2:46
  Spoilsport shouted snot running off.
• 2:51
  The grown-up's new notice Hickory was missing. Where's he gone?
• 2:58
  Erm, asked Oki. I don't know, said Rut.
• 3:03
  He ran away when Snot said, Dear me. Erm, when Snot said, he looked like a shrew.
• 3:11
  Dear me, said Oki. He's a little bit sensitive, you know.
• 3:16
  I'm sorry, said Snot. I really am. and was horrible and rude.
• 3:22
  Never mind, said Oki.
• 3:25
  Well, I'll just have to find them.
• 3:28
  They all set off to look for the little mouse. Hickory, they called. Hickory!
• 3:35
  Hunted everywhere for Hickory. Hickory, he called.
• 3:40
  I'm sorry I didn't mean to be horrid, but suddenly snuck right out in pain.
• 3:46
  My tail, she said.
• 3:49
  And started to cry, Help! My tail's stuck! Someone help!
• 3:54
  Hickory heard the cries and ran, and ran as fast as he could towards him.
• 4:01
  He saw that Snut's tail was stuck in the tree root, so he bent down and gave it a sharp tug.
• 4:09
  The very next move, Snut's tail was three.
• 4:13
  You are clever, thank you very much, cried Snut, giving Hickory a big hug. Thank you.
• 4:20
  Back at Oki's roots, Snot told everyone how Hickory had rescued her.
• 4:28
  Thank you for helping, Snot, Hickory, said Rose.
• 4:33
  I think he...
• 4:36
  Is there anything we can do to help you?
• 4:41
  I think there is, said Oki. You see, Hickory hasn't got a family.
• 4:50
  Then he'd better come and live with us, said Rose.
• 4:54
  We've got plenty of room. Please stay, Hickory, cried out ruckin' ruttin' snot.
