Balto Page #3

Balto, what's wrong with her?

Uh, I'm not sure,

but I know how to find out. Come on.

I have the keys to the city.

After you.

Balto!

Big paws kinda run in my family.

At least, uh, one side of my family.

- Stay close.

- No problem there.

It's so gloomy down here.

Not that I'm scared or anything.

Gloomy? You kiddin'? It's the

most beautiful spot in the world.

Dogs travel for years

just to be right here.

Here? I can't see why.

That's cos you're looking

at the bowl half empty.

See this? It's the polar ice caps.

Balto, those are broken bottles.

And they're not half empty,

they're all empty.

- The sun.

- Oh, Balto...

And... to the north...

The northern lights!

Oh, Balto, you're right.

It's beautiful.

Yeah.

Beautiful.

- Good night, Rosy.

- I'm so cold.

I have another blanket for you here.

Stay warm and get some rest.

Doctor, how is she?

Exhausted from coughing.

Her fever's getting worse.

Looks like diphtheria.

She's the 18th case this week.

And I'm out of antitoxin.

Jenna. Jenna, I'm sorry.

Jenna, I...

I didn't mean to upset you.

- I shouldn't have taken you there.

- No, I'm glad you did.

Steele.

Well, well.

What's wrong with this picture?

Jenna, join me for dinner.

You start at one end,

I'll start at the other.

When we get to the middle, well...

- You tell me.

- All right, Steele.

No, Balto.

Gee, Steele...

... I have to admit your offer

is very tempting.

It is.

But these days I prefer my meat... cooked.

Come on, let's go!

What's all the noise?

- I think it's over here.

- Jenna, come on.

Looks like Balto's found a way

to your meat locker.

Good thing Steele was here.

Good boy Steele, you've earned these.

Besides, I can't use 'em after

that wild animal's touched 'em.

Go on, get out of here, you thief!

Come on, Jenna, let's go home.

Anchorage. Stop.

Repeat, urgent request.

More diphtheria antitoxin. Stop.

Nome in grave danger. Stop.

Please help. Stop.

Nome, pack ice closing in.

Cannot ship antitoxin by sea.

Will try by air.

Nome, storm at airport.

Planes grounded until storm clears.

Many regrets.

From Juneau, Office of the Governor,

we are shipping antitoxin by rail. Stop.

Train line ends at town ofNenana. Stop.

Select fastest dogs for sled team.

To carry antitoxin from Nenana to Nome. Stop.

God willing, train will make it through. Stop.

... to select the fastest dogs for

the sled team to fetch the antitoxin.

the race is from...

Just look at him.

He's gonna save the entire town.

He's positively... magnesium!

It's not exactly a one-dog show, Dixie.

They're racing to see who's gonna

be on the dog sled team.

What's with you, Jenna?

Steele's a genuine hero.
