you'd run and be free if you could.

I meant if I were a pig.

You know what happens to pigs

around here.

Yes, I do.

And it should never, ever be spoken of.

I'm gonna miss you today.

See you when I get back, okay?

All right, I gotta go, okay? See you later.

Bye.

Goodbye, Fern. Hurry back.

Hi.

My name's Wilbur.

Anyone want to play?

Anyone?

It's raining, you know.

And you know what you get with rain?

It's raining, you know.

And you know what you get with rain?

- Lightning.

- Typhoons.

- Cholera.

- Dysentery.

- Frizzy hair.

- That sad feeling.

No, mud!

What the heck is he doing now?

Hey, come on. You wanna join me?

Come on! Let's go!

Let's go, let's go, let's go!

Let's not.

How many times must I tell you?

Just because we're sheep,

it doesn't mean we have to follow.

Think for yourselves.

- Yourselves. Quite right!

- Look at me!

- No, no, no. Yourselves.

- Myself?

Hey, kid, this is a barn.

We don't play, we work.

- Some of us, anyway.

- "Some of us"?

Are you implying, lke,

that we don't work?

Because we work bloody hard,

thank you!

Hard? You grow hair!

"Grow hair." Good one!

Excuse me.

And is that your contribution to society,

you gassy rib eyes?

Filthy hairball!

- Rib eyes!

- Dirty lintball!

Zip it.

- They're at it again.

- Rib eyes! Rib eyes!

It's really slippery. That's the fun part!

Little itty-bitty pig,

could you come here, please?

You said your name is Wilbur, right?

That's right. What's your name?

- Gussy.

- Gussy?

- Great name!

- Thank you, Wilbur.

Now, you're so cute and pink,

but you're wasting your time.

These animals won't play.

- What about you?

- Me?

Well, I have to stay on my eggs.

Oh, wow! Look at that!

Otherwise, of course, I'd love to play.

So, why can't you play?

Because what's good for the goose

is good for the gander.

What about the rest of you?

Don't any of you like to play?

Can't play on three empty stomachs.

Well, for us there's this whole

smell-of-wet-wool business. Ghastly!

See? I'm afraid

it's just not a play kind of place.

But you're all friends, right?

Sure. We've been here together

our whole lives.

I'm not so sure being in the same place

is the same as being friends.

I'm not hungry.

I just wanted someone to play with me.

What's that?

What is...

Could it be?

Slops!

Oh, joy. It seems the pig slop

has brought out the rodent.

Moldy cheese. Oh, yeah.

Did I have salami last night?

Yep. I guess I did.

- Oh, charming.

- Disgusting creature!

Hi, there.

Oh, you're a pig.

You're a pig.

Pig equals slop.

The rat is happy.

My name's Wilbur.

Do you have a name?

Or is it just "the rat"?

Did you say "just the rat"?

For your information, pig, the rat rules.
