[whistling]

Oh, looks like an invitation from the queen herself.

[whistles]

[comical music]

knock knock knock

(Mrs. Bird) 'I'll get it.'

Morning, Mrs. Bird.

I've got a letter here for young Paddington.

Thought it more proper to hand deliver it

rather than stuff it through the letter box.

Here's your letter, Paddington. Looks important.

Thank you very much, Mrs. Bird.

- 'Well, what is it?' - I think, it's an invitation.

- Who's it from? - What's it an invitation to?

Come, come, Paddington. Don't keep us on tender hooks.

- It's from Sir Huntley Martin. - The marmalade king.

The gentleman Paddington met at the Porchester Restaurant.

(Judy) 'It's an invitation

to his marmalade factory.'

(Jonathan) 'Look! It says

we're all invited'

'to the after ceremony tour of the factory.'

(Paddington) 'It's very kind of him

to have remembered me.'

[chuckles] I don't think anyone

could forget you, Paddington.

September 1st is only a week away.

Barely enough time to get you cleaned up.

But it's a marmalade party.

It's bound to be sticky and messy.

I don't care if you go to a mud pie bake-off.

You'll start clean.

Paws?

Perfect.

[horn blaring]

My taxi's here, Mrs. Bird.

Go on. Have a good time.

We'll see you at the factory later.

I almost forgot. Have you got your invitation?

Here's a thermos of hot cocoa, some money for the driver

and some maps, in case you get lost.

Goodbye, Paddington.

[engine revvs]

[upbeat music]

Are we there yet?

Not, quite. We've a way to go yet.

It looks a lot closer on the map, no more than an

inch.

Bah, that's not a real inch.

That's the scale. It could be miles.

Oh, no. It's a real inch. I measured it.

Here let me show you.

Hey, now what you doing?

[vehicles honking]

thud

crash

- Watch where you're going. - 'Someday..'

(male #1) 'You're gonna kill someone.'

[indistinct chatter]

Here, let me help.

You've already been plenty of help.

Now just sit down and put on your seat belt.

And maybe when we get there we'll all be in one piece.

Watch out.

Watch what?

'That.'

[tires screech]

- Are we dead? - Ouch.

No, I think we're quite alive.

Oh, it's-it's a good thing you saw that.

Otherwise, we'd be swimming with the fishes.

My pleasure. Now, can we continue?

I'm afraid I'm already very late.

No problem. Just let me straighten out my cab.

[instrumental music]

[tires screech]

Are we there yet?

No, but we're as close as I can take you

I'm afraid, so, unless you wanna rot

in the back of my cab another houe.

'I'd say you should get out here and walk rest of the way.'

But how will I find it?

[sniffs] Just follow your nose

and sniff.

splash

[instrumental music]

I was following my nose but it kept disappearing.

Oh, now, look at me.

True, you're in a right state.

I'm certainly in no condition to go visiting

and I'm afraid I've lost my invitation down the drain.

Here now, I just got that part cleaned.

No turning back now.

Now, this is what I meant about following your nose.

See? Now, sniff good. Take a good whiff.

[sniffs]

Like that.

[sniffs]

I smell marmalade.

I knew you'd get it. Ha, off with ya.

[sniffs] Umm, marmalade.

If you want a new job, I'll call a foreman

otherwise, be off, today is too important

to deal with the likes of an unemployed bear.

It's the right thing to do, movie stars and everything.

We're opening a new factory building

and I'm keeping the gates clear.

I haven't come about a job.

I've been invited to Sir Huntley's ceremony.

And I suppose you just happened to lose your invitation, right?

- Exactly! - Look.

The only way you're gonna get into this factory, my lad

is through the workers' entrance.

There's the foreman now.

Aye, Fred. I've got a young out-of-work bear here.

Do you have anything for him?

Well, we're a bit short-handed, but I don't think having

a couple of paws around will hurt.

Do you know anything about marmalade?

Oh, yes. I know quite a bit. I eat a lot of it at home.

Well, then, is there anything in particular

you'd like to try your paw at?

I think, I'd like to try the chunks department first.

Hmm, well we don't have a chunks department.

But no one's working in the barrel section.

'The barrels need to be cleaned out'

before they can be used again.

I'd wager you'd find plenty of old chunks

if that's what you're interested in.

Sir Huntley.

Have you heard anything from Gloria Gaynor.

Well, she's supposed to put her footprints in the cement.

The actress? No, sir. Not a peep.

What a day. So much to see to.

And where's Paddington, I wonder.

[instrumental music]

I don't think I've ever seen

'so many barrels in my whole life.'

You don't have to scrub them all. Only as many as you can.

We pay five pence each for the large ones

and two pence for the small ones.

'So the more you clean, the more you make.'

Five pence each?

Perhaps, I could try my paw on the testing section instead.

Huh, you have to work your way up to a job like that.

Your best plan is to start at the bottom.

Here, come with me.

This hose and that scrub brush

are all you'll need.

Now, I'm gonna be leaving you alone now so no fooling around.

Today is a very important day

so you'd best not be caught wandering about.

Sir Huntley won't be wanting any interruptions

from the likes of you.

Well, bears are good at cleaning out barrels

and-and I'm sure this will all be sorted out

once the Browns arrive.

Huh, so, I suppose I should make the best of it until then.

After all, it's not everyday I'm asked to play with a hose

and get paid for it.

[Paddington humming]

[groaning]

He's a good worker, that little bear.

Yeah. And it's a smart thing we did to hire him. Hey!

[coughing]

Watch who you squirt with that hose.

- 'Hey, pull up..' - 'Whoa. Watch it!'

Not bad, if I do say so myself.

[coughs]

(male #2) 'Turn that water off.'

Havin' a bit of sport, are we?

'Well, two can play that game.'

(male #2) 'Make it three.

Do your best. You won't hid from us.

- Did you see him, Fred? - No, keep searching.

(male #2) 'You come out bear

and we won't be rough on you.'

Keep looking. He just can't have disappeared.

I found him!

(male #2) 'He's getting away, Fred.

After him.'

Don't let him get on the grounds.

(male #2) He's going in

in the main factory building.

'Oh, Sir Huntley will have our ends for this.'

"Marmalade room."

I could hide there forever.

screech

Uh, where would you go, if you was a bear, Fred?

The marmalade room.

Oh, that marmalade.

(Fred) I thought sure he'd be in here.

Well, keep looking. He couldn't have got very far.

[Paddington slurping]

[instrumental music]

There he is.

screech

screech

A bear covered in marmalade doesn't simply disappear.

He's gotta be somewhere.

(Paddington) 'Ah, this could work out

quite well after all.'

(male #2) 'There he is!'

sploot sploot

[whirring]

[whirring]

swoosh

He-he's gettin' away.

[instrumental music]

He's one of those bottles.

Well, we've nothing to do, but look through the whole bunch.

Oh, it's no use, Fred, he's gotten clean away.

Away he got, but not clean, I'll wager.

[instrumental music]

Ow! Run for your lives!

It's the creature from the orange lagoon.

Oh, no wonder he ran off terrified.

I could have sworn he was here.

Are we supposed to wait all day for the so-called experts?

Relax, Arthur, I'm sure that Sir Huntley's

expert will be here soon.

But a bear? What is science coming to when we have

to depend on the opinions of bears?

But, Arthur, who better to taste marmalade than a bear?

(Arthur) 'Norman, have you seen a bear?'

Me? No. Well, that is, I mean, where?

Has a bear come through here?

Do you see a bear anywhere around here?

What about you? Have you seen a bear?

No.

Come on, Fred. There's no luck here.

If you find him, send him here.

They'll never find that bear. One of us will have to go.

- I'll go. - But hurry back, Norman.

If we wait much longer, this marmalade will spoil.

[comical music]

Oh, this is a terrible place to hide.

I guess, I may as well face the music.

Excuse me, I know this sounds ridiculous

but is it possible that you've seen a bear?

Haven't you?

We thought we had him cornered

in marmalade room, but he got away.

Come on, we'll never find him hanging around here

talkin' to this bloke.

I'll call you if I find him.

That bear's nowhere to be found.

I've got to get back to my post.

Phew, well, I may as well, get back to work.

- Where can he be? - 'Oh, Sir Huntley.'

I'm-I'm afraid I've a bit of bad news, sir.

It seems your actress can't make the ceremony.

Well, this is just awful.

Now, who's going to put their footprints in my wet cement?

But there is a bit of good news.

Uh, there was an interloper on the premises.

But I believe, he's been chased off.

Excellent. Keep up the good work.

But where could Paddington be? He was due here hours ago.

[instrumental music]

There has to be another way to do this

other than just one barrel at a time.

Why not?

Uh-oh.

I don't think these barrels like having a bath

any more than I do.

'Ha! I did it!'

Of course, once it's filled with water

I have no idea how I'll get up there to scrub it.

Then again, I may not have to worry about going up to it

when it may come down to me.

thud

Of course, this may not be the easy way either.

[instrumental music]

If the barrels won't come to me, I'll have to go to the barrels.

It's a good thing bears are good at climbing.

I did it.

Now to clean those barrels.

Whoa!

splash

Oh, clearly that wasn't the easy way either.

This is much more like it.

Those other ideas were obviously ridiculous.

Now to clean those barrels.

Except I forgot to bring the hose.

[instrumental music]

Uh-oh. Oh, this doesn't look good at all.

creak creak

boing

I guess the only easy way to do this is the hard way.

[instrumental music]

splash splash

I think, it's time for a cocoa break.

[slurping]

How am I ever going to get those barrels down to clean them?

Well, the foreman said start at the bottom.

[instrumental music]

[rumbling]

Thunder?

I better finish this job before it starts raining.

[groaning]

I've been the marmalade king for 50 years now.

And this is a day I've long awaited.

Is it possible that this won't be the most glorious day

in my factory's history?

In those 50 years, I've searched long and hard for the perfect

most succulently inspired recipe for marmalade.

'In that search, I've spared no expense'

'nor dodged any hardship.'

Amazing weather. Not a cloud in the sky.

My search took me to the ends of the Earth.

Marmalade through Fiji, Machu Picchu

and even the South Pole were gathered and tested.

Where can Paddington be?

He's probably off somewhere testing samples.

He'll be here, don't worry.

Oh, that thunder is getting closer.

I'd better hurry if I want to finish.

boing boing boing

Oh!

[rumbling]

I know he'll be upset if he misses this ceremony.

If this weather keeps up, there won't be anything to miss.

It's gonna rain, alright. Barrels. Look!

[rumbling]

Marmalade has been my life..

And now, after all these years, I'm about to unveil

my crowning achievement.

Run for cover!

[rumbling]

[whirring]

- Mr. Brown! - 'Sir Huntley.'

Look, it's Paddington!

Oh, thank goodness he's alright.

- It's him. - We're awful sorry, sir.

You go on with your ceremony and we'll get rid of this blighter.

Stop! That's no blighter.

That's Paddington Brown, one of my guests of honor.

Uh, he said he was a guest.

Then why wasn't he admitted?

Well, he didn't have an invitation.

Fred here gave him a job, cleaning out barrels.

You put a guest to work?

Well, h-h-he did a right, good job until this..

I started at the bottom, just like the foreman said.

Start at the bottom, he said. And I did.

I, why am I walking so slowly?

My ceremonial cement.

Ugh, I'm so sorry, Sir Huntley.

Oh, well, it's no big deal, Mr. Brown, really.

What's important is that you're alright.

'After all, anyone can have a star put their feet'

'in ceremonial cement.'

'How many people have bear prints?'

I'll be very happy to make more prints for you if you like.

Uh, Paddington.

Perhaps we should return to the factory.

There's a huge feast awaiting us.

Will there be marmalade?

Indeed, there will be. It's my new director's marmalade.

And you shall have the first official taste.
