Sunshine quotes from Tugs

Captain Star

[narrating] Ten Cents and Sunshine were taking fuel out to Lillie Lightship.

Ohhh, how're we gonna find her in this?

O.J taught me to wiggle, to keep the breeze on the same cheek all the time. That way we'll beat the currents, sail in the right direction. She can't be too far away now.

What's that? That sounds like ice breaking. It can't be, can it? Oh, I don't like it, Ten Cents, what's happening?!

How should I know? It's weird! [the ghost fleet appear in front of them] Look!

Ohhh….. jeepers creepers! Aww, oh, we're for it! Our number's up… It is! They've come to get us!

Captain Star

[narrating] An early sun had burned off the fog, but Top Hat was still asleep where he'd tied up.

D- Oh! Go away, ghosts! No, don't hurt me! Please! Please! I- Oh, Grampus…

Grampus

What are you doing here, Top Hat? What's this about ghosts?

Did I say 'ghosts'? Oh, I must've been dreaming. I lost my bearings in the fog and moored here for the night….

Grampus

[chuckling] Here? That is funny.

What's so funny?

Grampus

You're only 500 yards from the Star Tugs Pier! It's there! Look!

Listen everybody, I've seen Ghost Tugs for myself!

O.J

We've all seen them. Ten Cents and Sunshine have seen a Galleon too.

But these were ghosts, I assure you! I saw them! Really! Silent! Phantoms of the sea!

So, you admit ghosts exist now, Top Hat?

Ghosts? What's that about, m'dears, hmm?

Ghostly White Tugs!

Yeah. White Tugs, and a big galleon!

And Neptune, I think.

I saw them too!

You're all going crazy! Seeing things that aren't there! [laughs]

I'm not sure. I don't know what I saw now….

Well, I'll tell you: They're the White Fleet, down here from Northern waters on a trail of an iceberg. These Tugs sail, at times, with engines off, listening for cracking ice. There was a wooden galleon frozen in this iceberg which must have melted in our warmer water. That's why you saw the Old Vessel bob up to the surface. I doubt you saw Neptune, Sunshine, he's for fairy tales. You let the fog get to you, m'dears! [laughs]

Hercules, behind you!

Well that's your ghostly galleon.

Captain Star

[narrating] They watched with embarrassment as Burke and Blair towed away the rotting galleon. Later on, Star Tugs found they could laugh about it. But they never forgot the fog, that nearly sent them Crazy!

How'd you get past that fire barge, Ten Cents?

Easy!

'Ere, what's up with you two?

Ah, well, we blocked them up the creek to save the fuel contract for you, Zorran!

We only went for the light barge!

Huh?! You IDIOTS! We needed that light here, didn't we? To get Vienna in, for US, as well as for Them. Now, what's this about a fire barge? Have you taken one from its station?!

We only jammed it a little way!

Well, get back up there quick before the Fire Chief gets there!

Fire Chief won't be pleased with you two! 'Ere, it'll take 'em all night to get that fire barge free.

Aye, it will, aye-aye. Maybe they should've thought of that when they jammed it in.

Why couldn't I have been a liner, I wonder?

'Cos you're not big enough.

You are silly, Warrior.

You're clear, Vienna! Bon voyage, Godspeed!

Aww, she really is lovely…

Yeah….

Goodnight, Vienna!

Goodnight, Vienna…

Take it easy, Sunshine!

Captain Star

[narrating] Big Mac had a healthy respect for logs.

Hey, this is a nasty jam, Big Mac.

Aye, could sink you. Logs don't care about no one.

Never thought there'd be this much trouble logging. Ah!

It's a tricky job. Logs have got to be roped just right: Not slack, but not too tight!

….Isn't tighter the better?

Ha, you'd think so, but too tight causes friction as they bob up and down and that creates heat and they can catch fire.

Huh?

And that'll happen here, if we can't get this jam shifted!

Aye. Wet logs catching fire… I can never get used to that.

Aye, always surprises me. Well, we'll have to keep at it.

Naagh, Can't shift 'em, Sunshine, no matter what I do.

[coughs] Don't worry, I'm okay. The smoke from me stack seems a bit heavy though.

I'm afraid that smoke's not coming from your stack.

No, I, er- I didn't think it actually was.

I've gotta get you out of there, fast!

How long d'you think it'll be before it bursts into flames?

Ohh, how'd this happen?

Never mind how, swing 'round and try to push the logs clear, we've got to get Sunshine out!

Hello!

Aw, no! It's Billy Shoepack with his dynamite!

Aw, tell him to clear off, Ten Cents. Flames and dynamite don't mix!

Look, get outta here Billy! One spark from this landing on your dynamite, and we could all go up!

'Hang on, Hang On, 'ow did you get in that mess?

[Sarcastically] On Purpose Shoepack, just for the fun of it. On yer way man!

That sounds like Puffer. Great! Send him to Uptown, he's faster than the current'll carry the logs.

You're right, Sunshine, he'll get there first! Oi, Puffer! Warn Uptown that the log dam is broken, the logs are heading their way, it's an emergency!

Will do, but what can they do about it?

O.J.'s at Uptown, tell him!

Right. On my way, Ten Cents! A race against time… I'LL BEAT 'EM!

Look, don't stop for anything!

Oi! WHOA THERE!

[(trying to stop suddenly) accidentally collided into Ten Cents' hull, sending him rocking about.] [Coughing upon collision] Er, Sorry. Sir!

Yeah, Well watch it in future.

[Clears throat] I was- er, I was looking for Ten Cents, sir?

Yeah? Well, you just found him!

AAH! I'm... Sunshine, Sir.

It's Good to meet ya! Come on, let's get to work. The Star Fleet's docking an ocean liner this afternoon, and if we get a move on, we'll be finished in time to watch.

Yes, sir!

Now- Now look, Sunshine, you only call Captain Star 'sir'. I'm just Ten Cents, okay?

Yes, s- er, Sure thing, Ten Cents.

Hello, Ten Cents. Who's your new friend?

Sunshine, meet Sally, She's a seaplane.

Hello, (Whistling) Sally!

Thanks for the fuel, fellas.

Captain Star

A few days ago, we salvaged the tugboat, Sunshine, and he was taken to Lucky's Yard, and I'm glad to tell you that little damage was done. As for the Star Fleet, we've learned a valuable lesson here.

O.J.

Yes, indeed we have...

Captain Star

A lesson about trust and friendship. I think we have Ten Cents to thank for that. And for the rest of us; about jumping to conclusions before knowing the truth. Now, I know you're all proud of being Star tugs, but the most important thing in my fleet, after hard work, is that my tugs always be true, honest and forgiving.

Aye, aye!/Hear, hear!/Yes, sir!

Captain Star

Now, If you'll look to port... I would like you to welcome our new recruit!

Oh, here he is!

Captain Star

Sunshine, I am proud to have you on my fleet! [narrating (TV version only)] That was the moment I first knew, we had a Great team of Star Tugs.

Yeah, Welcome aboard. You look great, Sunshine!

Thanks, kidda! Bonny new colours, eh?

Oh Dear, Hey er, Stop Dredging! Er, I say Warrior…

Oh, ha. Morning Fellas, And Pearl. it looks like it's gonna be a Great Day.

Oi, LOOK OUT! [as Warrior stops suddenly, his barge bumps him, again.] Oh, hey, Whoops. What're Ya towin'?

Oh, you noticed. No more garbage for me, at least for now. Captain Star's put me on the rock contract for the new dock foundations. Just what was to be expected, really, being such a powerful tug and all. Well, gotta go now. Bye!

Congratulations, Warrior! [Warrior's barge bumps Little Ditcher spinning him around]

Oh! Dear!

Dear me… Hey, Little Ditcher, are- Are you all right, eh?

Bit diz-zy!

Hey, you gotta laugh though, eh? Look, Pearl! He's gonna become the first floating Merry-go-round!

[sarcastically] Oh, aye, thanks a lot, Warrior(!)

Can't stop. BYE!
