The Secret of NIMH Page #4

I will say this...

his name is not unknown in these woods.

Please sir...

I'll do anything to save Timmy.

Anything.

There is a way.

Go to the rats.

But I don't know any rats!

In the rosebush.

Oh yes...

near the farmhouse.

Go there.

Ask for Nicodemus.

Nicodemus?

But how can they help?

They must move your house

to the lee of the stone.

No rat could move my house! It's...

They have ways!

I don't understand...

but I will do as you say.

It is night. I must go.

Remember... the lee of the stone.

What... what did he say?

He said to go to the rats.

Rats. What rats?

The lee of the stone...

Mrs. Briz! Briz!

Oh, excuse me, pardon me.

Jeremy? What on earth?

I'm in disguise!

Jeremy, please, not now!

I'm trying to find the entrance,

and these thorns are very dense.

Here, let me help you...

Will you be quiet?

They'll hear you!

I've got to find this Nicodemus

before the farmer gets that tractor fixed!

I'll keep a lookout!

Will you...! You're going to get us both killed!

I don't see anybody coming.

If you really wanted to help me,

you'd go away.

Why that's very brave of you, Mrs. Briz

but I can't... I can't leave you here alone.

Why, if anything were to happen,

think... think of the children!

That's it!

huh? That's what?

Jeremy

someone strong should be protecting my children.

In case that tractor starts up again.

Oh, in case the tra...

Hey! How 'bout me?

Oh, would you?

Yeah, sure! That'd be terrific practice!

Girls can't resist a guy who's good with kids,

you know, domestic type.

Play games, help out, domestic!

Yes. Yes, domestic.

Now whatever you do

don't tell them where I am.

My lips are sealed, Mrs. Briz.

Bye.

Good luck with the rats!

Where do you live?

By that big stone in the garden.

Just stay out of trouble?

Not to worry, Mrs. Briz.

I love kids and kids love me.

Kids love me and I love kids

Dragon! You lazy kitty!

Go catch some of those

rats out in the barn!

I've never seen a cat sleep so much.

Er... hello.

I'm... I'm Mrs. Brisby.

Umm... I was told to see Nicodemus.

Are you Nicodemus?

Please, I need help!

Who goes there?

Me!

Mrs... Brisby?

what are you doing here?

Oh! Oh thank goodness it's you!

How in thunder did you get in here?

The plow has come early to the field...

you had better march straight

back out the way you came!

...I can't bring Timothy out.

The chill in the air will kill him!

That's another matter.

That doesn't explain what you're doing here.

...and that big rat chased me away.

But I must see Nicodemus!

The Owl told me to see Nicodemus!

Well, yes, perhaps you should...

The owl said?

Here now, what owl?

What are you talking about?

I went to see the Great Owl.
