hey, tom, what do you think
of those dancing shoes?
Huh?
The dancing shoes.
Oh, I think they're wonderful.
I think so, too.
Let's get some.
But don't you
have to stay here?
Oh, we'll be back before
it's my turn to play.
They'll never miss me
for a few minutes.
Hold on, tom.
Let's go.
I'm sorry, Woody.
All sold out.
Not even a pair for a queen?
Oh, very funny, Woody.
Ha ha ha! Very funny.
Well, how about a pair
for this little fellow?
For tom? You know,
I believe I have.
See if these fit.
Ho ho!
Look at this.
Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
Woody, that no-good loafer...
where is he?
Where is he?
Where's Woody?
I was crazy to give him a job
in the first place.
Woody!
Woody, wherever you are...
You're fired!
Better go after him, Woody.
Those are talented shoes
he's wearing.
They'll keep on dancing
as long as the music plays.
Tell them to hold the music!
Stop the music!
Stop!
Bandmaster!
What now?
They say to play faster!
Faster? Gladly.
1, 2!
Bandmaster!
Bandmaster!
Stop!
Tom!
Have you seen tom?
No, I haven't.
Stop playing!
Have you seen tom?
No.
My balloon's gone!
Tom!
Hey, Woody!
Look at me!
Don't let go, tom!
Hang on!
It's no good, Ivan.
It won't give at all.
Now...
Finding ourselves
in the situation
it would seem a little
coordination is necessary.
We'll use this piece of wood.
This time, our effort
shall be unified.
Now, both together
when I count 3.
You understand 3?
Yes. It comes after 2.
Good boy. Right.
1, 2...
Ooh...
Argh!
Oh...
Hey, Ivan.
Shh.
Now, we must approach
this problem
from a highly scientific angle.
Sure, but...
but first, we must practice
unadulterated silence.
Understand?
Hey! What are you doing?
It's the little runt!
Yes.
Yes, yes.
Thank you.
You saved my life.
Think nothing of it,
young fellow.
Fate decreed I should be present
in your hour of need,
that is all.
Ivan, why can't we
use him to get...
why don't you shut up?
Oh...
Young fellow,
talking about hour of need,
it would seem you dropped in
just when my companion and I
could use your assistance in
the performance of a good deed.
Oh, I'll be glad to help.
I knew it.
I knew it the first time
I laid eyes on him, see.
That's what I like about this
charming young gentleman.
He's so cooperative.
Uh, what do I have to do?
Come over here.
Get the rope.
Now, Thomas, my boy,
listen to me.
Let me explain.
Now, the mayor of this village
is an absolute rascal, right?
Now, he has the money
belonging to the poor
orphans down there.
And he intends to keep it
all for himself.
Now, if you'll go
down this rope
and help us
to get the money out,
we'll see
that it is distributed
amongst those to whom
it rightfully belongs, eh?
I don't know. Maybe I should ask
my father or Woody.
Oh, no! No, there's no necessity
to bother them.
I'm sure they would approve.
In fact, I'm quite certain
your father would be
very proud of you.
Very proud.
Why, yes.
He would?
Yes, of course he would.
Come on. Let's pull the job...
I mean, let us do our best
to help the poor little orphans.
Shall we?
You see, Antony?
Everything comes
to him who waits.
He believed every word
of that silly story. Ha ha!
Hey, wait a minute!
How do I know that money's
really for the poor orphans?
Oh, uh...
Well, you have
my word of honor.
And you have mine.
Oh! Oh, well,
then it must be alright.
Whew.
What should I do now?
Shh.
Tie the rope to one
of those bags.
Uh, which one?
The biggest one!
Shh.
Then climb on,
and we'll pull you up.
It's going to work,
Tony. Ha ha!
Nobody will guess
how we did it.
It's ready.
Right, right.
Ha ha ha!
Ahh! Ha ha ha!
Aren't we going to
take any more?
Shh.
Not now. Maybe we'll
come back later.
Well, there's plenty more
down there.
Ivan.
Let's get rid of the kid now
so he won't open his mouth.
Are you out of your mind?
Leave this to me.
Now, listen, my dear fellow.
We're going to take you
for a nice little ride.
Ivan.
They are gone.
Come on.
Now, tom, this is where
we must part.
Now, that's the road
that takes you home.
Now, remember our little secret.
Don't tell anyone.
That's the only way
we can surprise
the dear little orphans.
Oh, by the way,
I'm sure
the dear little orphans
would like you to have this.
Run and get it!
Tooty dooty doo!
Tooty tooty too.
Bye!
Bye.
Goodbye.
Bye.
Help! Help!
And where have you
been all day?
Oh, all over the place.
I had a wonderful time.
I got some talented shoes,
and then I went dancing,
and I rode on a balloon.
Oh, I've just been helping
two friends do a good deed.
Until it got dark,
and you fell into the swamp.
Ah, I'd have got out anyway,
but thanks just the same.
What was that?
Hi, queenie.
Hello, Woody.
Do you realize I have searched
every inch of this forest
trying to find you?
Well, I'm sorry you got lost.
I got lost?
You got lost you mean.
I've been looking
for you all day.
The trouble with you, tom...
oh, Woody, why don't
you leave him alone?
Never mind, queenie.
The trouble with you, tom,
is you have no sense
of responsibility.
Responsibility?
What about your sense
of responsibility?
You were to keep your job
and take care of tom.
He only went away
to get you a pair of shoes.
You stay out of this!
Don't speak to him like that.
I think you'd better
take him straight home.
Oh! "Do this, do that."
I've had enough!
I'm tired of dragging
through this forest
doing things for other people.
If it's not him flying
around in balloons,
