    Stripes: [to Goose, as Franny munches on some hay] Tucker doesn't understand. He didn't even know that I was a zebra. He doesn't get it. What's he ever done? Goose: Now, let me tell you somethin', kid. I've made a few claims about ponies. This guy's all hair, and no brains. Franny: [to Stripes] That's just about enough out of you, young colt. [to Goose] And, Goose, BANG! Goose: AAAGH! Hit the hay! Franny: [to Stripes] Come here. [to herself] These people think they know everything. You tell somebody something, they get an attitude. Goose: Hey, I didn't know that goat was packed. Franny: Come up here. I want you to take a look up there. You tell me what you see. Stripes: [still upset] I've seen them before; the Chief, my girl, and her mother, and that's it?! Franny: No. Look closer. Stripes: That's Sir Trenton! Franny: And who else? Stripes: Tucker! Franny: That's right - Tucker. He trained Sir Trenton. He and the Chief trained all the winners, and not one of them ever... EVER... thanke

Sir Trenton: Hush now, little girl! You're interfering with my Mozart. I wonder if he was a thoroughbred. Franny: There's Sandy.
