Yes, the dream is back on.

See, not free yet.

The miller! The miller's on my tail!

Yeah, and he does not look happy.

I am not happy!

Follow me.

-This way. Up here.

-No, no, not up.

No, donkey don't like up!

Sorry. Sorry.

I'm a really nice guy.

Get out of the way.

Get out of the way. Get out of the way!

-What now?

-Jump.

Jump? What, are you crazy?

Justjump!

A flying donkey!

Well, greetings, ladies.

Wait a second. Are they eating chicken?

Ladies, run!

Other way. Other way!

No, no. Where'd you go?

Dave? Dave? Where are you?

I got you now.

No.

-No, no, no.

-There's no way out of this.

Here we go!

Okay. Here goes.

He's a good man. He'll understand.

Thanks.

Zechariah! Party's over.

Let's go.

Great party, guys.

-Bye, now.

-Joseph,

you must be the happiest man

in the world.

Or second happiest.

Clearly, I'm the happiest.

You know, I think I liked you better

when you couldn't talk.

Our place is a mess.

"Our place."

I like the sound of that.

Me, too.

Well, this place

isn't gonna clean itself.

I'm starting with the dishes.

Okay. And I'll start down here.

Where I figure out

how to tell him about you.

It's all good news. Promise.

All good news.

Yep.

I'm caught again.

There's gotta be a better hiding place.

Okay, maybe not here.

Nope, not that one, either.

Why couldn't I be smaller?

The one time | wish I was smaller.

No.

You poor thing.

You're hurt.

What is she doing?

That can't be good.

If I'm going to help you,

you're gonna have to let me, okay?

Okay.

Better?

Good. Nice to meet you.

l'm Mary.

Hey. You gonna

bring me up any more dishes?

You didn't tell me you had a donkey.

ldont

No, he must be a stray.

Go on, boy. Shoo!

You're scrappy. Scrappy little donkey.

Come on.

All right, that's how it's gonna be?

-Are you okay?

-Yeah, yeah. I'm fine. It's just a...

Poor little guy is hurt.

-Give him a break.

-Hello!

Has anyone lost a donkey?

-Because, if you have, he's here!

-What should we call you?

And I do not want him!

How about...

-Wait, what are you doing?

-Boaz.

You're naming it?

What do you think, Bo?

Bo? No way.

Bo's a good name for you. Isn't it?

-lsn't it?

-Yeah, Bo's great. Love it.

Mary, no.

No, if you name him, you're gonna start

feeling affectionate toward him.

And once you feel affectionate,

you're gonna want to keep him.

And if there is one thing

we are definitely not going to do...

Do you think

he'll be warm enough down here?

That's my workshop.

Let's just let him stay here

till he's all better.

Don't you think we should at least...

Mary?

Come on. Let's go talk upstairs.

Okay...

Finally. They are gone,

and I am out of here.

There you are.
