伦尼:我们吃什么，巴斯特？我们必须出去寻找食物，不然，我们会饿死的。
Mrs. Toby: My, my, that's just as terrible. I don't want to starve.

Finally, Felix, the brightest mouse at the meeting raises his hand.

西奥多:你怎么想的，菲利克斯？快说出来！
Felix: Well, uh… How about hanging a bell around Kitty's neck? When we hear the bell, we can run away.
费利克斯：是这样，嗯……咱们在凯蒂的脖子上挂一个铃铛怎么样？这样我们一听到铃声，就赶快逃跑。

The whole room suddenly becomes silent. After a while, Mr. Toby opens his mouth.
房间里一下子变得非常安静。过了一会儿。托比先生开口了
Mr. Toby: Well, uh… I would like to, but I am too old. So how about you, Buster? You are young and strong.
托比先生：这样，嗯……我是很想去，可是我太老了。所以，你去怎么样，巴斯特？你又年轻又强壮。
Buster: No, thank you. I am not that strong. Lenny would be better. He is slim and fast.
巴斯特：不，谢谢。我可没那么强壮。还是伦尼比较合适。他这么苗条，身手又快。
Lenny: I am not that fast. How about you, Felix? You are smart. And it was YOUR idea.
伦尼:我的身手可没那么快!菲利克斯，你去怎么样？你很聪明，而且这是你出的主意。
Felix: What?! Me?! No, thanks. I don't want to be eaten. We better think of another plan.
费利克斯：什么！？我！？不了，谢谢。我可不想被吃掉。那咱们最好还是想想别的办法吧。
MORAL：A good plan is of no use if it is not carried out.
寓意：如果无法实施，一个好的计划一点用处也没有。
