Abigail: It’s okay, Randall. We will figure this out together.
Ernest: Pa?
Abigail: Ernest, go to sleep, sweetie.
Ernest: What’s the matter, Pa?
Abigail: Ernest! Listen to your mother. It’s a grown up talk.
Ernest: Well, I’m grown up ain’t I? You can trust me with the hogs, you can trust me with the truth.
Randall: We’re selling the farm, boy. The land, the barn, all of it.
Ernest: But pa, what about the animals? We’re not going to sell the animals, right pa?
Randall: Sorry, boy. They have to go. They all have to go.
Ernest: [singing] It’s extra quiet in the farm tonight
and I’m feeling so alone
Cause today I’m losing my friend
Yes today, I’m gonna lose my only friend
There he is, my tiny horse (neigh)
And he’s going away, yeah
They’re taking him away from me, yeah
There he is, my tiny horse (neigh)
He’s extra tiny today, yeah
But they’re taking him away from me, yeah

[Ernest puts the horse on the floor]
You’re free now, boy. Go on. [the horse does not leave] Didn’t you hear me? I said you’re free. Now run. Come on, you dumb horse. I said get! [The tiny horse is getting upset. Emotional music playing in the background.] Run if you know it’s good for you. Get! Get! Go on. [The horse starts running away.] Get, you filthy horse! Go! Come on! Get! Go on! Get. Go on. Get. Go on, boy. Hey, get! Don’t come back. You hear? I never even wanted you, so don’t come back because I certainly won’t be looking. Just promise me one thing. Do great things. I know you will.

Randall: Boy, good news. I got a loan and we’re keeping the farm.
Ernest: What?

Ernest: Really? [the tiny horse looks at Ernest with hopeful eyes.] No, pa. I can’t. That tiny horse was never mine to begin with. That tiny horse belongs to the world. [looking to the tiny horse] Go on, boy. Get.
He’s gonna do great things, right pa?
Randall: Sure he will, son. You just know it.
