He's My Friend
from Toy Story
Written by Joss Whedon, rew Stanton, Joel Cohen, Alec Sokolow

Woody pleads with Sid's 'mutant' toys to help him rescue Buzz Lightyear before he is blown up by a rocket. He humbles himself, admitting his fault and appealing to their sense of community to save his only friend.
WOODY: No, no, no! Wait! Wait! Listen: Please! There's a good toy down there and he's -- he's going to be blown to bits in a few minutes all because of me. I've gotta save him! But I need your help. Please. He's my friend. He's the only one I've got.
