Babes in Toyland Page #2

run along.

Hello everybody. How's everything?

And how are my two boys?

Hello Mr. Santee.

Can't wait until you see the wooden

soldiers we made for you.

The finest piece of work we've ever

turned out.

Splendid!

Ollie! Go and bring one of them in.

Yes sir. You'd better help me.

They're heavy.

We'll have them right out, Mr. Santee.

You'll get the surprise of your life!

Don't try to lift it. All you have to do

is press the button in the back..

And it walks out by itself.

Isn't it wonderful?

It does everything but talk.

Wonderful yes. But not what I ordered.

What do you mean?

I ordered 600 soldiers at one foot high.

What?

You took that order.

What was it?

I thought you said 100 soldiers at

six foot high.

You got the order all wrong.

I couldn't give those things to

my children to play with.

Put it back in the box and get out

of here. You're through!

Here's another mess you've gotten

us into.

Well I couldn't help it.

If you had been watching what you were

doing, you wouldn't have gotten us into..

Come out of there. Not you! It's

for him!

Put that thing back in the box! Get

out of here!

Stop it! Stop it! Do something!

Come out of there!

Why didn't you stop it, you

blithering idiots?!

Now get out and stay out!

Yes sir.

Aren't you gonna ask him about the

money for the mortgage?

What's that?!

Just skip it. It's a fine time to

ask for money.

Oh mommy. I'm so happy!

Tom Tom has asked me to become

his bride.

My child.

And with your permission, we'd like

to be married.

Why of course darling.

My blessings are with you.

And may nothing ever happen to

mar your happiness.

Ah, thank you mother.

Mr. Barnaby!

When you enter my house, I'll trouble

you to knock.

Your house, my good lady?

Did you say your house?

Yes, my house!

Not until this little debt is fulfilled.

Why mother, what does it mean?

It means my dear..

that unless this mortgage is paid..

You will all be thrown out into

the street.

Of course..

We could.. compromise.

Compromise?

Yes.

Should your daughter reconsider my

generous offer..

to become my wife..

we could forget this little matter.

And it could be her wedding present.

Mother?!

Don't worry darling.. nothing like that

will ever happen.

Then, let us get down to business.

Mr. Barnaby!

You can make out your receipt.

You'll be paid in full, right now!

Well, here you are boys.

Just in time.

This wretched man seems to think that we

haven't got the money to pay off the mortgage.

But we have, haven't we!

Haven't we boys!

Why what's the matter?

Didn't you get the money?

No, you see Ollie made a mistake.

A mistake?

He and the toy maker are not like that.

Are you!?

Then I take it madam..

You cannot meet your lawful obligation?

In which case, I shall bid you good day.

Foreclosure papers will be served

in due course.

Oh, your not really going to throw us

into the street?

Much as it pains me, I'm sorry.

Big bait catches big rats!

Oh mother, what shall I do?

If only he didn't have that mortgage.

Don't you worry, Mother Peep..

Stannie and me will find a way to get

the mortgage from that old..buzzard!

He sure is an old buzzard.

You know, if he thinks he's gonna throw

this shoe into the street, he's mistaken.

He certainly is.

You know what I'd like to do.

What?

I'd like to put on this shoe and kick

him right in the pants.

Then I'd kick..

What happened?

Barnaby clunked you.

Open that window.

- Ollie?

- What?

We're outside.

Good!

Now what do we do?

Take me over to Barnaby's house and

be sure no one sees you.

Okay.

And be careful!

We're here.

So far, so good.

It wasn't so far.

We just came across the street.

Ring the bell!

It wasn't so far! Hmph!

Who is it?

It's me.

What do you want at this hour of

the night?

Well you see, Ollie and I are sorry for

what happened this afternoon..

And just to show you we're not mad at

you, we brought you a Christmas present.

It's from me, and from Ollie.

Christmas present..

in the middle of July?

Oh yes, you see we always do our

Christmas shopping early.

If you'll open the door I'll bring it

right in for you.

I'll be right down.

He's coming down. He's going to let us in.

That's fine.

Now don't forget..

when he goes to bed..

you give me the signal.

And I'll get out of the box, open

the door and let you in.

Then we'll get the mortgage.

So far, so good.

Ah.. what is it?

Oh I couldn't tell you.

Couldn't tell me?

No. You see it's a surprise.

And it musn't be opened til Christmas.

See.

Do not open, until Christmas.

Well, that's very nice of you.

It is, isn't it!

Well, good night Mr. Barnaby.

Good night Mr. Dum.

You can go to bed now.

Thank you..

Mr..

Dum.

Merry Christmas.

A merry Christmas to you.

Good night.

Good night!

Good night Ollie!

Good night Stannie!

Where as Ollie Dee and Stannie Dum have

been found guilty of burglary..

they will be dunked and thereafter

exiled to bogey land forever!

Good night Ollie!

Your majesty.. what are we waiting for?

Oh yeah.. proceed with the dunking!

Come on!

Your first. Come on!

- Ollie!

- What?

You better give me your watch. I'll

hold it for you until you come out.

Thanks. Now take good care of it because

I wouldn't have anything happen to that.

- I will.

- Good bye.

Good bye.

- Come on!

- All right.

Splendid!

- Is it cold?

- Yes!

I'm smothering!

- Keep your nose closed!

- I will!

Hurry. He'll die of ammonia!

This is terrible.

Hold your nose, Ollie!

Bring him up.

How do you feel?

You know how I feel!

Here, have a drink of water. That'll

do you good.

Haven't I had enough water?!

I was only trying to help.

Mr. Barnaby. Can't something be done

to stop this?

Why yes. Consent to become my wife.

And they will go free.

All right, Mr. Barnaby.

I consent.

With your majesty's permission. I wish

to withdraw my charges.

Withdrawn they shall be.

Residents of Toyland..

I want you all to meet..

The future Mrs. Silas Barnaby.

You may go.

Thank you sir.

- Does that mean we're free?

- Yes.

And from now on, you and I are going

to be very close friends.

- Does that mean that he won't be dunked!?

- Yes!

- Isn't that nice?

- What?

He and I are just like that.

And I don't have to get wet.

Oh, is that so!

- Ollie!

- What?

Here's your watch.

Run over and tell the bride that all is in

readyness.. and her lover is waiting.

Mumsy, what did Tom Tom say?

He understands.

Now you see. If you hadn't said good

night Ollie, this wouldn't have happened.

Where are you going Mother Peep?

I'm going over to Barnaby to make a

final plea.

Surely there must be one spark of

kindness in that phony heart of his.

That's a good idea. But I don't think

it will do any good.

You're right Ollie. You can't turn

blood into a stone.

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

Well her talking to Barnaby..

is just a matter of pouring one ear into

another and coming out the other side.

It can't be done.

I'm sorry Bo Peep that you had to
