it's you trying to

get me to kiss you.

Woody! How dare you?

Ah, yes, don't think

I don't know.

I'm not as dumb as I may look.

I will kiss you when I'm good

and ready to marry you

and not before

if you think I'd marry

a no-good, idle

do-nothing like you,

you second woodwind,

you! Oh!

Hey, wh-wh-what...

Don't go, queenie.

I'm... I'm sorry, Woody.

It was all my fault.

Oh, it's...

It's alright.

Well, come on, tom.

Let's get you home.

That good-for-nothing

Woody.

He'll have some

tall explaining to do.

Your father's in

a pretty bad mood.

Yes. You better

go ahead.

I'll try to get to bed

before father sees me.

You've had enough

trouble of your own.

Thanks, tom.

So long.

Bye.

Disgraceful!

Disgraceful!

A boy of his age being out

till this time of night.

It's been dark for hours.

I should never have let them go.

It's my fault.

Where are they?

Where are they?

I'll teach him a lesson.

I hope nothing's

happened to him.

Something will happen to him

when he gets home.

The idea of a youngster

like that

gallivanting around.

I'll see he doesn't do it again,

I can tell you that.

So...

You finally decided

to come home.

Now, you tell me

what you've been

doing all this time,

and it better be good.

Jonathan, you mustn't allow

yourself to get upset like this.

We'll talk about it

in the morning.

Say goodnight to your father.

Goodnight, father.

I'm sorry.

Trouble, yes?

I've just made my folks so

unhappy, and I'm so sorry.

Being sorry next best thing

to being good.

Humble one suggests

you go sleep.

I can't sleep.

I just feel so bad

I can't sleep.

Problem easily remedied.

Let me introduce

yawning man...

very good friend.

I'm

the yawning man

I come when shadows creep

with my yawning song

I stroll along

and help put people

to sleep

If you just can't sleep

and you're tired

as could be

there's a remedy

it's the yawning melody

if you yawn, yawn, yawn

then you'll sleep,

sleep, sleep

till the dawn, dawn, dawn

so let's all yawn

If the sandman comes

and his sack he unties

tell him, "go away"

who wants sand

thrown in his eyes?

if you yawn, yawn, yawn

then you'll sleep,

sleep, sleep

till the dawn, dawn, dawn

so let's all yawn

try it, tom.

If you still can't sleep

and for slumber you yearn

if your eyelids burn

and you squirm

and twist and turn

try to yawn, yawn, yawn

then you'll sleep,

sleep, sleep

till the dawn, dawn, dawn

so let's all yawn

Jonathan, come and sit down.

You can't possibly go to work

in weather like this.

You might just as well relax

and enjoy your breakfast.

Where's tom?

He's asleep.

Wake him up.

Oh, no, let him sleep.

He's so exhausted.

I wonder who that is.

Well, gentlemen,

what can I do for you?

Maybe you can help us.

The treasury has been robbed,

and we're searching

for the culprits.

Have you seen any

strangers hereabouts?

No, I haven't.

Have you, Anna?

Why, no.

Have you looked in the forest?

Yes. We've been

all through it.

We're about to have breakfast.

Won't you join us?

Come in, gentlemen.

Make yourselves at home.

Well, thank you.

Won't you sit down?

Here you are.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Very tasty, ma'am.

Well, thank you.

Ouch!

Wake up,

con-fu-shon.

Hey, this

is a coin from it.

There's no

doubt about it, I swear.

How now, madam?

Are you in the habit

of baking your bread

in the village treasury?

I haven't the least idea

how it could've got there.

This coin is part

of the stolen money.

Where's the rest of it?

Honestly, I don't know.

I don't even know

how this one got here.

Huh! A likely story.

You mean you don't

believe her?

Are you accusing us

of thievery?

And you call yourself

honest Jonathan.

You may call yourself

honest Jonathan,

but as for me, you're a crook.

That isn't true!

He's the thief.

Don't you dare call

my husband a thief!

You're both under arrest.

Hey, wake up, huh?

Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up! Help!

Con-fu-shon!

Con-fu-shon, wake up!

Honorable yawning man

has very powerful medicine.

We got to open the door!

Con-fu-shon, some soldiers

just accused my money

of stealing parents.

No, I mean, well,

we got to open the door!

He's not a crook.

Are you awake?

A Jack-in-the-box.

Yes, yes, yes!

Come on.

Yes, a big mistake.

You haven't heard the last

of this, my friend. Let me go!

Take your hands off me!

Take your hands off me!

Wake up, Jack.

Very quick, wake up.

I'm sleepy.

Go away.

But... but...

but honorable tom

need honorable

Jack-in-the-box very much.

Why didn't you say so

in the first place?

What can I do?

Can you open the door?

Consider it done.

Done.

Little man, big trouble?

Oh, con-fu-shon...

What am I going to do?

To prove innocence,

find guilty one.

I know who the robbers are.

With such knowledge,

problem easily solved.

Yes. So all I have to do

is find the robbers

and have them put in jail.

That's what I'm going to do.

are you a dream?

or was it really you?

were we really here?

did my dream come true?

I can't be happy now

till you belong to me

why did you fade away

never my love to be?

was I awake?

I can't believe it's true

but once, long ago

you were the love I knew

can it be possible

you've gone away?

or were you a dream

I dreamed one day?

you touched me

I felt your touch

you must be real

I care so much

come back to me

tell me it's true

tell me

you're not a dream

tell me

it's you

hi!

Oh!

Oh, hello, tom.

I was just, uh,

singing to myself a little.

I heard.

Well, where are you going?

Well, I have to go

catch a couple of criminals.

Really? And what

have they done?

Well, they robbed the treasury.

My folks got blamed for it,

and they took them to prison.

Oh, no. Well,

that's terrible!

Of course it's terrible!

Are you going to come and help

me or just sit there and sing?

Hmm? Oh, help,

of course, tom.

Well, come on, then.

I know what they look like, too.

One of them has a big tall hat,

and the other's a big fat man.

Wait a minute.

Are they dressed in black?

Yes, yes, and...

it's them.

You know who they are,

and I know where they are.

Come on, tom.

One for you, and one for me.

Ha ha ha!

Two for you, and two for me.

Ha ha ha!

Three for you,

and three for me.

Three. Ha ha!

Four for you, and four for me.

Five for you, and five for me.

Six for you, and six for me.

Ha ha ha!

You stay here.

Seven for you and seven for me.

Seven. Ha ha ha!

Eight for you,

and eight for me.

Nine for you,

and nine for me.

10 for you, 10 for me.

I've come to take that money

back where it belongs.

Ha ha! 12 for you,

12 for me.

Give me that money,

do you hear?

"Give me that money,

do you hear?" Ha ha ha!

Go away.

14 for you, 14 for me.

I told him to go away.

Yes.

I heard you.

Now we start again.

Maybe we better leave

and share the Booty later.

Hey, I want mine now.

Very well.

We must hurry.

One for you, one for me.

Woody, wake up.

Three for you, three for me.

Four for you, four for me.
