KMr. King

Please, remove all of this equipment at once! Good day. [leaves]

Boy, oh, boy. Who does he think he is?

He is J.B. King, Schemer! Superintendent of the whole railroad!

Yikes. Open foot, insert in mouth.

KMr. King

Miss Jones!

Yes, sir!

KMr. King

There's a train leaving the station. It's... It's impossible!

No, it's not, Mr. King. Nothing's impossible, unless you stop believing in it.

KMr. King

What, may I ask, is the meaning of this?

[sleepily] Do be a love and scratch my foot, won't you? [notices Mr. King] Ah, hello, J.B. [suddenly reacts and is now wide awake] Mr. J.B. King, Esq., exalted head. The meaning of this! Yes. Uh, ah, yes. The meaning of this is that it is a managerial retreat. Yes. It's especially restful for important business-type people like yourself and I.

KMr. King

Put a sock in it, Schemer!!

BBuster

We'll see how tough you are after I tell my dumb uncle what happened. Then I can draw on the walls all I want.

[he stops and looks at Mr. King, who glares at him]

BBuster

Oh, hello, Uncle J.B. I was just telling them about how well you run the railroad.

KMr. King

You're already in enough trouble, Buster. Don't make it worse by lying to me.

BBuster

Oh, but whatever do you mean, Uncle J.B.? We were just having fun.

KMr. King

Buster, we'll talk about it later. [points to the exit] Wait for me outside.

BBuster

[upset] I never get to have any fun. [points at Dan] It's all his fault!

KMr. King

Outside!

[Buster exits the station]

Harry, I'd like you to meet Billy, Billy Twofeathers. He took your old job-- Engineer, first-class.

[shakes hands with his successor] Hello, Billy.

Oh, I've heard a lot about you, Harry. You left some mighty big shoes to fill around this place.

Thank you, Billy!

So tell me, what you been up to?

Well, let's see. It's hard to know where to begin. For one thing,...

[in response to the ringing phone] I'll get it.

Oh, thank you, Billy.

[Billy heads for the workshop]

I'm planning on rebuilding an entire steam engine. An old favorite of mine.

It's for you, Stacy!

Oh, excuse me, Harry.

[she heads for the workshop as Billy approaches Harry]

I was just telling Stacy my plans to build an entire steam engine...

KMr. King

[barges into the station] Mr. Twofeathers! There's a boiler problem with engine 4. I need you to look at it right away.

No problem. Thanks, Harry. [leaves]

Yeah, yeah, yes, Billy. Yes.

KMr. King

[surprised] Harry, is that you?!

Yes!

KMr. King

[shakes hands with Harry] Welcome back, old timer!

Hello!

KMr. King

What have you been doing with yourself?

Well, I was just telling Billy about my plans to build...

KMr. King

[looks at his watch] I'm afraid that'll have to wait, old friend. I have a dozen things to do. What time do you have?

I wouldn't know.

KMr. King

But what happened to that gold watch that we gave you when you retired?

Well, it stopped working.

KMr. King

I see. Well, we'll get that fixed for you! [leaves] Nice talking to you, Harry.

Yes. Yes.

[enters and passes Harry] Hey, Harry. How ya doin'? Ah, just great. I'll talk to you later.

Schemer? Schemer? Maybe things have changed around here.
