- [as the film begins, a fire engine can be seen going down a street in San Francisco. At the rear is a fireman named George Bell. As he's looking around, he spots someone preparing to jump off of a nearby dock. Instantly, George is alarmed]
- George Bell: [shouting] Hey! Hey! Hey! Don't! Stop! Don't do that!
- [as George runs to stop the man, another fireman comes into view and takes hold of him. This is Tom Watson]
- Tom Watson: Where do you think you're going?
- George Bell: [points at the man on the dock] Hey look! A guy is getting ready to jump into the water. After all, I'm a Scout Ranger, and a Scout Ranger never turns his back on the call of duty.
- George Bell: [George raises his hand and salutes] A Scout Ranger is trustworthy, loyal, helpful...
- [the man jumps off the pier]
- George Bell: [speaking quickly] There he goes! Kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, reverent, and must do a good deed every day!
- [George and Tom hurry over to the pier. Upon reaching it, George takes off his jacket as he prepares to go into the water]
- George Bell: Don't go away! Don't go away! I'll be right there!
- [George backs up as he prepares to dive. After a few seconds, he runs and dives off the pier, only to land face down in a boat]
- Tom Watson: Nugget Joe, you've got everything in the world to live for. The richest gold mine in Alaska. Why with that kind of money, you can get any kind of girl you want. Why worry about that one girl?
- Nugget Joe McDermott: I don't want any girl. I want Rosette.
- George Bell: I want to go to sleep! I'm tired.
