- Cantus the Minstrel: We see with our eyes, we know with our hearts.
- [Fraggles in background murmer in agreement]
- Cantus the Minstrel: Outside, inside.
- Red Fraggle: There, he answered your stupid question.
- Gobo Fraggle: Well, what kind of an answer is that?
- Cantus the Minstrel: The kind that follows your question.
- Wembley Fraggle: At the heart of the Rock there lies a bell.
- Gobo Fraggle: The bell must ring once every year, once every year, when the Rock slows down.
- Wembley Fraggle: Yeah, that's when it gets really cold. If the bell didn't ring, the Rock would freeze, the rock would freeze and stop forever. Maybe even longer, Gobo.
- Gobo Fraggle: Yeah, that's the story, all right.
- Wembley Fraggle: Gobo, Gobbo, that is not just a story, that's the truth!
- Mokey Fraggle: Gee, I wonder what it's like being frozen forever.
- Boober Fraggle: I wonder what it's like being able to feel your hands and feet.
- Uncle Travelling Matt: What's the matter with you Silly Creatures? Where are the bells? Where are the Weebabeasts? Is this any way to run a holiday?
- Cantus the Minstrel: I will find Gobo. You will wait here. We do not have much time, and we must use all of it.
- Boober Fraggle: B-b-but what if the... what if the Rock stops while you're gone?
- Mokey Fraggle: Yeah.
- Cantus the Minstrel: There will be motion in the stillness... as there is music in the silence.
- Cantus the Minstrel: We do the things we have to do, when we have to do them. Not sooner, not later.
- Boober Fraggle: Well, I think we're going to have to ring the bells a little bit on the sooner side.
- Red Fraggle: Does it seem even colder?
- Mokey Fraggle: Well, maybe it's just your imagination, Red.
- Boober Fraggle: Well, then, is it her ima-ma-ma-ma-ma-magination that's ma-making it so hard to move?
- Red Fraggle: What if Gobo doesn't come back in time? I, for one, do not want to sit here and freeze, just to keep your ridiculous promise, Wembley!
- Wembley Fraggle: Gogogogogobo will be back with the great bell, aaand thenn we'll ring our be-bells!
- Mokey Fraggle: Well, let's let's do something to keep our spirits up!
- Wembley Fraggle: Oh, oh, hey, hey, hey, did I tell you the latest postcard from Gobo's Uncle Travelling Mmmmmatt?
- Red Fraggle: Oh, stand by spirits, going down.
- Gobo Fraggle: The Festival of the Bell is silly! It's a waste of time.
- Wembley Fraggle: [gasps] Gobo, the Rock will fall on you, saying things like that!
- Cantus the Minstrel: Hark, Fraggles.
- [Fraggles in background answer him by saying 'Hark']
- Wembley Fraggle: Hark, Cantus! Whoohoo!
- Cantus the Minstrel: I'm happy to be here with you today for the Festival of the Bells, the most wondrous of all Fraggle celebrations.
- Red Fraggle: Gobo, what's wrong? You're supposed to say 'Weeba' with the rest of us.
- Mokey Fraggle: Yeah, come on!
- Gobo Fraggle: I... I don't wanna do this.
- Cantus the Minstrel: I'm surprised he got this far. He may be as determined as he is wrong. I admire that.
- Gobo Fraggle: Cantus, all of a sudden, it seems so... cold.
- Cantus the Minstrel: What seems, is. It is the time. The Rock stands still.
- Gobo Fraggle: Ah, that isn't true. That's just a story.
- Cantus the Minstrel: So you say.
