PART ONE
"Lady Perfection"
- Good morning, sir.
- Good morning. Any news?
Nothing much, sir. 3 murders,
107 petty larcenies,
an earthquake in South Cockatoo
and...
... a flying saucer, sir.
Anything new on your street?
- New? On our street?
- Hurry up, hurry up!
- On our street?
- I'm coming, mister Willkins.
I'm waiting. Hurry!
I couldn't sleep all night,
I am so eager to hear...
... the end of the story with
Astute Bill!
In last night's edition the
fearless detective finds out...
... that the stolen diamonds are
in the possession of a woman.
I hope you will find out who she
is, Mr. Willkins. - Thank you.
Eddie! My boy went out without
a raincoat!
Eddie! Don't you ever come near
those awful stray dogs!
- Ed, come home!
- Good morning, miss Lark.
Good morning. Just look
at this monster.
To say nothing of his pedigree.
Half poodle, half terrier.
And he took the worst from
both.
Here's your "Dog Herald" with
the results of the exhibition.
Thank you so much.
How many times did I tell you
to stay away from stray dogs!
Go away, fleabag!
Stay where you are!
- Good morning, admiral Boom.
- Are they here yet?
- Thank god, not yet!
- The flying saucer still there?
The papers write that chances
of aliens coming here are...
I don't care what they write!
If there are chances, that
means there is a threat.
- Put your stupid papers into
the mailbox. - Yes, sir.
Wait! What is the weather
outside?
The cool westward wind
intensifies, admiral.
The devices fail me again!
God damn my spleen!
Morning, mister Robertson.
Writing a new song?
- What's it about this time?
- Listen.
Hey you, villainous nanny Cathy,
You left, and the children
have no nanny.
There's noise and din
all over the place.
All hell broke loose without
a nanny!
And I go on condemning her, only
I didn't write that yet.
My sympathy. It is your ad in
the morning paper:
"Jane and Michael Banks, to say
nothing of their parents..."
- And I should add, their uncle.
- Oh yes, uncle.
"... are in need of a good nanny
or governess...
who would go for a meagre
salary. Urgent." - Yes.
I hope you wouldn't have
to wait long.
Hold this, will you?
Hey you, underground admiral!
Quit the masquerade!
Join in.
Hey you, underground admiral!
Quit your masquerade!
Underground admiral,
quit your masquerade!
"... a good nanny... meagre
salary. Address: 17, Cherry St."
Now all we have to do is wait
until nannies come queuing...
... at our porch, eager to get
the most meagre salary.
If we can't offer a big salary,
... it is better that we say so
in the first place.
So far, if crowds do gather
at your porch,
... it is to marvel at your
dear brother - the idler.
