(Paddington) '"Darkest Peru."'

It must be from Aunt Lucy.

"My dearest Paddington

"everything here at the Home for Retired Bears is fine.

"I'm happy to hear you are doing so well with the Browns.

"I'm always happy to hear from you

"so please write soon.

"It is very quiet here without you.

"And I miss you a great deal.

Your loving Aunt Lucy."

(Judy) Jonathan, this isn't helping

the attic get one bit cleaner.

- Now be more careful. - Careful of what, Judy?

It's just junk your folks wanted thrown out.

This is not junk, David. It's my favorite doll.

[laughs]

- Stop laughing, Jonathan. - I'm sorry, Judy.

But junk or not, we promised mom we'd dispose of it.

[groans] And the sooner we do it

the sooner we can go out and play-y!

(Paddington) 'Ow!'

That sounded like Paddington.

We better go see.

At least we got the attic cleaned out.

(Paddington) 'Ohh.'

[gasps] It is Paddington.

- But where is he? - 'Help.'

There he is.

Hang in there, Paddington. You're almost free.

Oh, Paddington, tell me where it hurts.

Right here, Judy.

Did something fall on your chest?

Oh, no.

I, I didn't even notice.

It's this letter from my Aunt Lucy.

- From Darkest Peru? - Yes.

I think she's missing me.

I know how she feels.

My folks back in America are the same way.

But I have so much fun with you and the Browns

I never want to leave.

[chuckles] I'll get you for that David.

[laughing]

That doesn't solve the problem

of what to do about my Aunt Lucy.

I wish she wasn't so far away.

You know, Paddington, I bet if you send her

something special it would make her feel better.

That's it! There's nothing like a spoon full of marmalade

when you feel down.

I'll buy her the biggest jar I can find.

Oh, but how will I get the money?

No problem. Well, you can find some odd jobs

around the neighborhood.

[instrumental music]

[sighs]

Good luck, Paddington.

Well, hello there, Paddington.

Will you be having your usual order?

Oh, don't tell me you're here about the job.

Yes, please. Bears are very good at helping out.

You'll have to speak to Mr. Thomas the owner about that.

But I can tell you, he definitely needs the help.

Oh, Mr. Thomas, Mr. Thomas.

Yeah. What is it?

Are you alright, Mr. Thomas? Shall I call an ambulance?

[laughs] No, not to worry.

That's only frosting.

Mr. Thomas, Paddington here

would like the job as your helper.

Well, Paddington, if there's anything I do like

it's an employee that's concerned with safety.

Does that mean I have the job?

Alright, Paddington.

Now, why don't you walk me through it one time

and then you can have a go by yourself.

I turn on the conveyer

that sends down the dough you're making in the back.

I add a pinch of yeast to each lump of dough.

Oh, d-don't forget, it's just a pinch and no more.

It's very difficult with paws, Mr. Thomas.

But I'll do my best.

Then I pop the dough into the oven.

When the oven is full, I shut down the conveyer.

Very good, Paddington. Then what?

[instrumental music]

Then I fill the buns from the oven full of cream

and put them on the rack to cool.

Then I start all over again.

Right. Well, I suppose I can leave you to your own devices.

Blimey! I almost forgot.

No matter what you do make sure the needle

on the cream machine doesn't peak into the red.

'Ha ha! We don't want an explosion, do we?'

Leave it to me, Mr. Thomas.

A pinch of yeast in the dough.

The dough into the oven.

I have to make sure, I'll have room for the other buns.

Oh, my!

Oh, this is happening much faster than I expected.

[dramatic music]

[machine whirring]

Ah, at last, break time.

(Mr. Thomas) 'Hurry up and fill them

loaves with cream.'

'There's more dough coming your way now.'

'Be sure to watch the gauge on the cream machine.'

E-everything is under control, Mr. Thomas.

Watch the gauge, watch the oven, watch the yeast.

All in all, I much prefer eating buns to baking them.

squirt

I guess I need to watch the pressure a little closer.

Oh! Well, now it won't work at all.

Oh!

Well, I'll say one thing.

Mr. Thomas certainly buys good yeast.

Oh, no! The cream machine.

[rattling]

What do I do?

Oh, Mr. Thomas, I think I need you.

Everyone, clear out!

boom

[screaming]

I'm really sorry for the mess, Mr. Thomas.

I'll be happy to pay for the damage

when I can find another job.

Hey, come back here.

slurp slurp

- This cream's off. - No thanks.

Do you know something though?

That bear's done us a favor.

If I had sold this cream

I'd have lost all me customers.

Yes, this must be our lucky day.

Next time he calls in, be sure and give him some free buns.

I don't know, Aunt Lucy.

I really do want to send you some marmalade

but I haven't done too well at earning money.

Oh, you, bear.

I beg your pardon? D-do you mean me?

You see anybody else on that bench?

How'd you like to earn a bit of money for yourself?

Oh, yes, please. Oh, what do I have to do?

My name's Wellington, and I own this establishment.

I got a rush delivery and nobody free to make it.

You ever delivered anything before?

I delivered myself all the way from Darkest Peru to England.

I don't want you to go as far as that.

I want you to run this wagon to this address.

When you make the delivery, bring the wagon

back here and I'll pay you off.

Oh, thank you, Mr. Wellington. You won't regret it.

meow meow meow

This is not your dinner. Shoo-shoo, go away.

That's telling them.

meow meow

vroom

Ah, maybe I've lost them.

'Then again, maybe not.'

Oh, I'm never going to get this fish delivered

before those cats eat it.

Oh!

[yowling]

Excuse me, madam. Is there a problem?

I've just seen a ghost.

In daytime, madam? There must be some mistake.

- It was pulling a wagon. - Yes, madam.

A-a-ah!

I'm going to faint!

Ah!

Excuse me, please.

meow meow

Call security.

meow meow meow

[instrumental music]

Hold on there, bear. Don't you move.

meow meow meow

Got them.

I want to talk to that bear.

Bear, have you any idea how much money

your shenanigans have cost Barkridges?

It can't be anything compared

to what he's done for the community.

Back! Back I say.

But what am I to do about all this?

You'll be more than reimbursed in free publicity.

Publicity? Hmm.

Customers, lots of customers.

I am an inspector with the Royal Society

for the prevention of cruelty to animals.

And I can guarantee you all the publicity you need.

After all, this bear has single-pawed

caught more stray cats in ten minutes

than I can catch in a week.

You mean, there might even be a reward?

The reward, my dear bear, is in the satisfaction

of a good job well done.

That's all very well, but it doesn't get me any near

of buying Aunt Lucy's marmalade.

Oh, well. I better deliver this fish before it turns green.

Paddington here with your fish from Wellington's fish shop.

- Well, it's about time. - Yes, ma'am.

Oh, no!

- What was that? What's wrong? - Oh, nothing.

I-I think I must have left part of your order behind by mistake.

Oh, but don't worry. I'll be back within half a jiffy.

- What took you so long? - Well, I..

Aw! What a sweet kitty.

He doesn't have a home

so I'm sure he'd be delighted to live here.

If you want him.

You bet I'll give you a home.

You can help keep down the mice.

He prefers fish.

You can deliver for me anytime you want.

If it wouldn't be a bother, could you pay me with fish?

So, what happened then Mr. Brown?

[both grunting]

Well, Mr. Wellington kept the kitty and I replaced the fish.

And I didn't make tuppence in the bargain.

It sounds as though you had

a very difficult morning, Mr. Brown.

Why are you ruining that picture, Mr. Gruber?

I'm not ruining it, Mr. Brown.

You see that painting underneath?

When artist can't afford new canvas

they sometimes paint over the old paintings.

And some of the old paintings

have more value than the new ones.

Thank you for teaching me something new, Mr. Gruber.

But I've got to go.

I still have to find a way to get Aunt Lucy that marmalade.

Ah, thank goodness that's the last of it.

Phew! I thought we'd never finish that attic.

What do we have here?

Looks like attic cleaning professionals to me.

(all) Aww!

Since you've finished your own attic so early

you'll still have plenty of time to clean mine before dark.

Of course, Mr. Curry.

We'll do it for 20 pounds.

[choking] Twenty pounds!

I can buy a new house with that.

- Take it or leave it. - I'll leave it. Thank you.

- Goodbye, Mr. Curry. - Good luck with your attic.

(Mr. Curry) 'Never mind.'

'The bear will do it cheaper.'

Uh, I mean, better.

Good afternoon, bear.

Good afternoon, Mr. Curry.

I have a job that needs doing.

A job? Oh, yes, please.

I need some money.

It's a deal. Let's get you to work.

Oh, there it is, I want all of this stuff out

so I can make this place into an art studio.

Wouldn't it be easier to paint landscapes, Mr. Curry?

Pah! I'm going downstairs. Call out if you need anythin'.

I guess I should move these trunks first

so I've got room to work.

[grunting]

This is hard work.

It's too heavy to budge.

Phew! I already need a break.

[rattling]

Don't worry about it, bear.

I'll just take it out of what I owe ya.

Thank you, Mr. Curry. I thought you'd be cross.

Oh, darn. Are those old paintings?

Mr. Curry probably doesn't even know

how much these paintings are worth.

But I know how to find out.

That did it.

Oh!

Now I'm in for it.

(Mr. Curry) 'Not to worry, bear.'

I'll simply take it out of what I owe ya.

It's going to be a very small jar of marmalade.

I'm very glad I saw Mr. Gruber today.

Otherwise, I wouldn't know about paintings.

[humming]

Uh-oh! Mr. Gruber didn't say some of the paintings

wouldn't have anything underneath.

I suppose Mr. Curry knew it wasn't worth anything

so that's why he wants it thrown out.

(Mr. Curry) 'Oh, bear.

I forgot to tell you.'

Yes, Mr. Curry.

'Careful of those paintings. They're precious to me.'

[gulps] Now he tells me.

Well, there's nothing to do, but repair it..

...in a hurry.

It shouldn't be too difficult.

Oh, if only I could remember what it looked like.

This is fun.

Ah, just a touch more yellow.

There. Ooh, a submarine bear.

(Mr. Curry) 'Are you finished yet, bear?'

Yes, Mr. Curry.

Let's see what kind of a job you've done.

- Do you like it? - Not bad.

Not bad at all, bear.

I'm glad you like it, Mr. Curry.

[yawning] But I'm very tired.

Would you mind paying me now so I can go to bed?

Let's see. We need to deduct for the trunk.

And we can't forget the records.

It seems you owe me ten pence.

I owe you ten pence?

But I was hoping I would have

enough to buy my Aunt Lucy

a jar of marmalade.

Well, she's going to be unlucky.

You just have to work harder and earn more money, won't you?

Paddington, wake up.

What, what's going on?

You tell us.

We hear you've been clearing out

Mr. Curry's attic. How did it go?

Hurry and get dressed, so we can pick out

the freshest jar of marmalade for Aunt Lucy.

Paddington, how much did Mr. Curry

pay you for cleaning his attic?

I owe him ten pence.

- That's a rip-off. - I knew he was cheap, but--

Come on, everybody.

We need to pay Mr. Curry a visit.

Now just hold on a moment.

Where are y'all rushing off to so early in the day?

[panting] Mr. Curry.

What else!

Well, it won't do you any good to hurry.

Mr. Curry's not home.

'I saw him leave just a while ago.'

He was loading some paintings in his car.

So if anyone were to ask me

I'd say he's gone to the art show at the park.

(all) Thank you, Mrs. Bird.

Pretty nice work of art, wouldn't you say?

Should be good enough for the first prize, don't you think?

We'll be the judges of that. Thank you.

(Judy) Mr. Curry, we need

to speak to you.

What do you kids want? Can't you see I'm busy?

We don't think you paid Paddington

a fair price for his work yesterday.

This is it! It's a masterpiece.

This is not my painting.

That's my painting.

That, sir, is the first prize winner.

Oh, what colors! What expression!

What animalistic power.

What about those?

Don't they have animalistic power?

As a matter of fact, they do.

'They should've been entered in a dog show.'

And to the winner, a 25 pound prize.

You keep painting more like that

and you'll have quite a future in the art world.

Don't you think someone else deserve some of that?

Someone named Paddington?

The real artist?

Did you paint that, bear?

Well, y-yes and n-no. It just sort of happened.

Then this is yours.

As payment for art lessons.

I think that can be arranged, Mr. Curry.

But we'll have to start tomorrow.

And why is that, bear?

Because today, I'm going to buy my Aunt Lucy

the biggest jar of marmalade in all of England.
