- All the time.
The first time I ran away,
the orphan home sent me back.
This time,
I'll just keep running.
Well, you'll be safe here.
Nora, no one's ever been this nice
to me. I'll always remember it.
Pete, why don't you
sleep here tonight?
We'll figure out
what to do tomorrow.
Okay?
Wonderful.
I've got work to do. Come on.
Are you anybody's mother?
I'm not even anybody's wife.
But you're gonna get
married now, aren't you?
[Scoffs] I'm already married
to this lighthouse.
- Who's that?
- Paul.
- Is he part of your family?
- He almost was.
- How can someone almost
be part of a family?
- We were going to be married.
How come you weren't?
Well, as far as we know,
his ship was headed for a storm.
They were never heard from again.
That was a year ago.
He'll come back.
I tell myself
the same thing every day,
standing up there
watching for ships on the horizon.
[Sighs] Time I should be thinking of
other things, so they tell me.
I'll have to ask
Elliott about Paul.
He has a way
of knowing things.
Who's Elliott?
- My dragon.
- Dragon?
[Gasps]
So you're the boy with the dragon.
- Yup.
- Where is he?
- Down in the cave.
- Thaќs interesting.
I've never known anyone with a dragon.
What does he look like?
Just a plain,
ordinary dragon.
How plain?
How ordinary?
# He has the head of a camel #
# The neck
of a crocodile #
It sounds rather strange.
# He's both
a fish and a mammal #
# And I hope
he'll never change #
# 'Cause iќs not easy
to find someone who cares #
# Iќs not easy
to find magic in pairs #
# I'm glad I found him
I love him #
# I won't let him
get away #
# 'Cause iќs not easy #
# You say
the head of a camel #
- # The neck of a crocodile #
- And the ears of a cow!
# Iќs clear that friends
can be different #
# Yes, I understand you now #
[Together] # Iќs not easy
to find someone who cares #
# Iќs not easy
to find magic in pairs #
# Now that you have him
Hold him #
# Treasure him
from day to day #
# Iќs so easy #
# Life is lollipops
and raindrops #
# With the one
you love #
# Someone you can
always be with #
# Argue and agree with #
# Climb the highest tree with #
[Together]
# Iќs not easy #
# To share somebody's dream #
# It gets easy
when you work as a team #
# You've got to tend it
Fan it #
# Thaќs what
I plan to do #
# Oh, I had one friend
by my side #
# Now I have two #
# Him and you #
# Him and me #
[Together]
# And iќs so easy #
# [Humming]
- Good morning, sir.
- Good morning, son.
- Nice to see you again.
- Ah. Thank you.
Aah!
- Iќs you!
- Whaќs the matter?
Iќs you.
The boy with the dragon.
Yes, sir.
[Screaming]
Dad! Dad, what is it?
- The boy with the dragon.
- I know, I know. Now, just take it easy.
You saw it.
You saw it?
I didn't actually see it,
but I know what it looks like.
- But wha...
- We'll talk about it later.
O-One thing I must know:
It isn't in the lighthouse, is it?
- No, Ellioќs down in the cave.
- Oh, Ellio...
Elliott? Lt... It even has a name.
There's nothing
to get upset about.
You're right. Right, there's
nothing to get upset about.
Nothing. No, why should I get upset?
I should be happy.
L... I should be happy! I'll go down
to the saloon and I'll tell the boys.
I'll say, "Boys, here it is."
And then hear the apologies. [Laughs]
Ellioќll be happy
to do it for you, sir.
Good boy. Good lad.
Just you and me and Elliott.
We'll go into the saloon.
Oh. Elliott...
He won't... won't start
to scratch or...
or fight, or set anything
on fire, will he?
- Well, he's sort of...
- Sort of what?
- Unpredictable.
- Now, don't do anything with Elliott.
Wh-Why don't you
leave him where he is?
- Iќs too dangerous
to take him into town.
- Iќs dangerous.
Now, I don't want either one of you
to say a word about Elliott...
- to anyone, do you understand,
- No. No. Yes!
Until we've
talked this over.
Now, leќs all have breakfast. The lamp
has to be polished,
