Numberjacks & The Boulder/Transcript

Michael Angelis: Just then, Edward arrived. He was delivering a new piece of machinery from the quarry.

Edward: It's called Thumper. Apparently it helps collect the rock faster.

Michael Angelis: Replied Edward. Soon, Thumper was working hard. The men were pleased, but no one bothered to check the boulder. When it rained, the workmen went away. Rusty gazed up and shivered. Above stood Boulder. Suddenly, a large slab of rock landed on the rails. Rusty was shocked.

Michael Angelis: Boulder rounded a bend and there ahead was Rheneas.

Rheneas: It's running loose!

Michael Angelis: Yelled Rheneas. His driver drove him back as fast as he could.

Rheneas: Yikes!

(Rheneas races away from Boulder and crashes into a bunker)

Driver: Rather a smashed than a squashed.

Michael Angelis: Sighed his driver. At the yards, Percy was collecting trucks. Then, he heard Boulder.

Percy: Oh, no! It's heading straight for me!

(Boulder crashes into the sheds, creating a massive explosion)

Michael Angelis: When the Fat Controller inspected the damage, he decided to close the mine. Then, he looked at Boulder.

The Fat Controller: We should have left this part of the island alone.

Michael Angelis: He said thoughtfully. They moved Boulder to a hill close by the yards. Rusty is sure that on a clear night, it is gazing up at the mountain and that its size are being carried by the wind to where it once used to stand proud and silent. I wonder if Rusty is right, don't you?
