Bad Baby (1997) - full transcript
Approaching his second birthday, Baby is still quite a handful for his long-suffering sister and parents. He's very demanding, hard to put to sleep, and they can't take their eyes off him for a minute. Dad has as much trouble with his boss ignoring his ability in the supermarket where he's general manager, as with Baby creating a 99-cent sale for all stock. And Mum is trying to make a name for herself baking cakes, but Baby keeps adding "eccentric" ingredients to the mix! On top of all this, Baby's teddy-bear, Baba, goes missing, and everyone goes nuts trying to find it, then replace it, while not constantly reminding Baby of its absence...

Eubie?
Eubie!
Oh--!
[ babbling ]
You're busted, mister.
Now just hand over the cake
and come along peacefully
to the bathtub.
What--?
[ giggling ]
Come on, Eubie.
[ Eubie giggling ]
Hi!
Surprise!
I swear, Eubie,
sometimes it seems like
there's 10 of you.
[ Eubie squeals ]
Oh, my.
[ Eubie squeals ]
Hey, hi.
[ giggles ]
Ta-da!
[ babbles, giggles ]
'Ake up!
'Ake up! 'Ake up!
Wow!
Eubie...?
[ gasps ]
'Ake up! 'Ake up!

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Oo-whee! Wow-wee!

Mom overboard!
[ gasps ]
[ gasps ]
Eubie!
Eubie?!
[ yelping ]
Another Eubie nightmare,
sweetheart?
He was--
he was everywhere.
I know. I know.
Just try and go back
to sleep, honey.
[ snores loudly ]
Mom?
Mom!
You woke Princess Trolla up
and now she can't go back
to sleep!
Oh, sorry, Kell.
Maybe if you told her
a bedtime story?
I don't think so.
She's not very sleepy anymore.
Right, Princess Trolla?
"That is correct, Kelly!"
Well, at least try, Kelly.
'Ake up!
No!
Buh-Buh! Where Buh-Buh?
Help! Buh-Buh! No Buh-Buh!
Help! Help! 'Ake up! 'Ake up!
Did you lose your Buh-Buh
again, sweetheart?
Help! Buh-Buh! Where Buh-Buh?
Aw-ww... Eubie.
Where Buh-Buh? Where Buh-Buh?
He lost his bear again?
Buh-Buh! Where Buh-Buh?
Find Buh-Buh!
Find the bear! Find the bear
so we can all get some sleep.
Okay, let's see. Penguin?
Check!
Beaver?
Check!
Something on toast
with fuzzy green mold.
Check!
Moose?
Check!
I'll check under-- ow!
Ugh! Here.
Dum da-da-da!
[ gasps ]
Buh-Buh!
Oobie love Buh-Buh!
Oh-hh... Thanks, Kell.
Sweetheart, now that Kelly's
found your Buh-Buh,
you can go back to sleep,
all right?
Good night, buddy.
[ cooing ]
Night-night.
Shh.
Night-night.
Do you really think
he'll go to sleep?
[ giggling ]
[ babbling ]
Looks like
another long night.
Uh-huh.
And then, the big truck said,
"Vroom-vroom!
If I don't pull over at a motel
and get some sleep--"
[ yawns ]
"I'm gonna hit a telephone pole
or something."
The End.
No. No. Again, Daddy.
More, more. Again.
♪ Close your eyes
♪ Go to sleep
♪ Go to sleep, little Eubie
♪ Close your eyes...
♪ Rest your head...
♪ So we all can go to bed.
Go to bed, go to bed!
[ babbling ]
'Ake up!
[ giggling ]
[ Eubie babbling ]
Isn't there anything
that will make him go to sleep?
Honk-honk!
Sleepy, honk-honk!
[ hamster squeaks ]
Me want Ouch!
Bring the hamster,
sweetheart.
Aw, honey.
That darn thing always bites me!
Don't take it personally.
He bites everyone but Eubie.
Now you be a good little--
ouch!
Ouch!
Ouch! Ouch, Ouch!
Ouch!
Ouch, ouch, ouch!
Honk! Honk!
Honk! Honk-honk!
[ engine starts ]
Dad, hurry!
Hang on, Kell.
Eubie will quiet down
the second we get rolling.
[ engine rattles ]
Vroom!
Hurry, honey.
One more time.
[ engine chugs ]
And we're off!
[ parents sigh ]
I don't understand.
Why can't Eubie sleep in
the bed like a normal person?
He's not normal, Kell.
He's a baby.
And you should try--
I know, I know.
I should try not to get
too mad at a baby.
It's just that it's yucky
when I fall asleep in the car.
My face, it gets all sweaty,
and then it sticks to the seat,
and it's-- ugh!
Just do your best,
sweetheart.
Good night.
"Good night, Kelly.
Good night, Kelly's family."
She's such a good sport.
Yeah. Great kid.
We have two great kids.
I can't believe this one
is gonna be two in a few days.
I can't believe it either.
We have to start saving
for college.
Do you know how expensive
college is these days?
I mean we're gonna need
at least 17 years
to save that kind of money.
And don't forget about
all the expense in the meantime.
There's in-line skates
and braces and a new car,
and there's summer camp
and swimming lessons,
and a new car,
and what if Eubie wants
to learn to play the drums,
or the tuba, even?
And come to think of it,
we might need a new car.
Okay, okay. I'll stop.
But tomorrow, I'm asking
Mr. Rock for a raise.
I want to start bringing in
some money myself.
I've even been talking to Betty
down at the gourmet coffee shop
about maybe stocking some of
my desserts.
Hey, being a mom's
already a full-time job, honey.
I know.
But it doesn't pay a dime.
But if I could work at home,
we could avoid putting Eubie
in day care.
Well, I'm sure the daycare
people would like to avoid
that too, honey.
Oh, you!
[ both laughing ]
You're a good dad, Corny.
Well, you're a good mom,
Gloria.
No, let him sleep.
Hmm?
Oh, okay.
[ snoring ]
[ birds chirping ]
[ loud honking ]
[ yelps, gasps ]
[ horn honks ]
'Ake up!
[ giggles ]
Good morning, Eubie.
Mom, my face is dented!
Those lines will be gone
in a few minutes, Kelly.
They're just upholstery marks.
Ow! Ouch! Argh!
Oh, no.
Ooh-- oh! Sorry! Okay!
[ motor buzzing ]
Look out-- whoa!
Whoa! All right, okay--!
Okay, Timmy, get control.
Gotta get control.
Oop! Free paper on me!
I got the motor scooter
for my birthday, Mr. Goode!
Congratulations, Timmy!
And it's good to see
that you're wearing your helmet.
Yeah, but I can't see
too good with it on!
[ car horn honks ]
Whoa!
Thank you, Timmy.
You're welcome, Mr. Goode!
Argh!
Morning, Eubie.
Moozy! Moozy!
You want your morning
music, honey?

"I can hardly wait!"
Mmm-wah!
[ singing ]
Mmm-wah!
So, Kell, you bringing
Princess Trolla to school?
She's helping me with my
show-and-tell.
It's gonna be about--
Pinchess Toll! Pinchess Toll!
Sorry, Eubie.
Princess Trolla wouldn't be
very happy if she went
to show-and-tell with oatmeal
in her hair.
"I would be forced to banish you
from my kingdom."
Pinchess! Pinchess Toll!
Pinchess Toll!
Anyway, my show-and-tell
is about--
Splat!
[ giggles ]
Eubie!
I'm sorry, Kelly.
Now, what's the rest of your
show-and-tell gonna be?
I'm going to--
Mo! Oobie mo!
Eubie, your bowl
is already full.
Uh-hah?! Hah-ah!
Ouch! Ouch!
Food! Food!
I don't care what you say,
mister, I'm not letting you
put that filthy hamster
in your mouth.
No, dear. He wants you
to feed breakfast to Ouch.
Come on, come on, now.
Play along.
Oh, all right-- ouch!
[ laughs ]
Come here, you little--
whoa-oh-oh!
Ugh!
Does anybody remember
I was talking?
Hello?
"No, what were you saying,
Kelly?"
I said I'm going to tell
the whole class about
my family being space aliens.
Sorry, Kelly.
Now what were you saying?
You're doing show-and-tell
on illegal aliens?
Good topic, Kell.
Very controversial.
Phew...
[ car horn beeping ]
That's my ride for school.
Love you, sweetie.
Have a good day, dear.
Sometimes I worry
that we pay too much attention
to Eubie.
Ha, Dada.
Honey, he's too dangerous
to ignore.
Oh, Dad?
Can you please bring me home
two more boxes of Fruity-Os
from work?
You got it, Kell!
Thank you!
Speaking of cereal...
I have just enough time
for breakfast.
[ Eubie chuckling ]
[ rattling ]
Ooh! Yum!
Eubie, come help Mommy
finish her cake.
Is that tonight's
dessert specialty?
I'm bringing it down
to Betty's Gourmet Shop.
You can eat it if she
turns me down.
Thank you, dear.
I'll take those.
Mmm-wah! Good luck!
I'm gonna need it!
Well, gotta get to work.
Have a nice day, dear.
Hey, buster!
This is a very important cake,
so just hand over those crayons.
O-kay!
[ giggles ]
Oh, Eubie!
Oh!
Yum!
Oobie help Mama.
More. Okay, more.
More!
Whoa! Not so fast there,
young man.
But thanks for the help.
Oobie help.
Wish me good luck, Eubie.
Goo 'uck, Mama.
Okey-dokey, then.
You want a mocha java cappuccino
with whipped cream and extra
strawberry flavor drops, right?
Would you like a shot of
espresso with that?
Gloria! Give me a sec.
I've gotta make a 10,000-calorie
latte here.
Was that a large or jumbo?
Raw sugar? Steamed milk?
Buh-Buh! Oobie want Buh-Buh.
Okay, honey, okay.
You got Buh-Buh. Okay.
All right, Eubie.
[ classical music playing ]
Buh-Buh.
[ gasps ]
Moozy! Moozy! Moozy!
[ music continues ]
[ slurps ]
Moozy! Moozy!
Ow-ww!
Moozy!
You be good now, dear.
Ba-ba-ba-ba...
[ squeals ]
So this is one of your
famous cakes.
It looks good enough to bronze.
[ babbling ]
Whew.
Mommy--!
Please be still, Eubie.
Oobie want moozy!
Whoa!
Oh, wow!
Yow!
Oh, dear.
Oh, boy, he's a strong one.
Let's sample the cake
before he maims any more
of my customers.
[ chuckles ]
[ babbles ]
Ba-ba-- moozy! Moozy!
Moozy, moozy!
[ music blares ]
[ screams ]
Wha--?
Eubie?
[ squealing ]
[ man screaming ]
[ music stops ]
I'm blind!
The baby has blinded me
with his sharp little thumbs!
Aren't you sorry, Eubie?
[ giggles ]
Ah-hah-hah, oh-hah-ah.
Oh, please! Keep the baby
from hating me again, please.
Oh, no, he doesn't hate you.
Eubie just-- well, he really
likes music.
Moozy, moozy!
Wolfgang, you know
what you need? You need
a piece of Gloria's cake.
How about a piece of Gloria's
cake?
My stomach is in knots,
but I suppose I could.
Everyone, free cake sample.
Mmm-- yum-yum-yum yum-yum!
[ customers murmuring ]
There you go.
Oh, here, here you are.
Oh, here, have some.
[ squeals, gulps ]
Eubie, are you okay?
[ moaning ]
I hope this is as good
as it looks, because to tell
you the truth, the desserts
I'm serving right now
are those health desserts.
You know, the ones that are good
for you, but taste like fruit
juice-sweetened foam rubber?
But this looks great.
Whoa!
Diss is werry, werry wemmony.
The cake is shrinking
my tongue!
Eubie, honey, did you
put extra lemon into Mommy's
cake batter?
Ooh-- ugh!
[ gulps ]
Yum!
I'll come back and try again.
Oh, please do!
[ cooing ]
Bye-bye!
Bye-bye.
[ customers coughing ]
[ screams ]
Buh-Buh!
Relax, Eubie.
Buh-Buh is probably in the car.
[ Eubie screaming ]
Buh-Buh.
Oh-kay!
So, who's here?
Mrs. Johnson and Billy.
Mr. Stevens and Brittany.
Mrs. Burton and the twins!
Okay, Mrs. Goode and Eubie.
Our new play friends,
Mrs. Rock and Lulu.
Oh, no. No, I am not
Mrs. Rock.
I am Heidi. Au pair.
Oh-kay!
Mrs. Au pair and Lulu!
Oh-kay!
Say hello to Lulu, class.
Hi, Lulu.
Whoa!
Ah-hh.
Oobie love Woowoo.
I'm Mrs. Rock.
Oof--!
I brought my little Lulu here
because she's very bright
and as a result, becomes
quickly bored in unstimulating
social environments.
I want her properly stimulated.
Here's a check. Work with me.
Oh-kay!
Lulu, let's take that lollipop
out so we can communicate
better with the other children.
Wah-hh!
Oh-kay, then, let's
start with a free play time!
Stay in groups, you guys,
and remember to share.
[ tweets ]
[ children babbling ]
Give it.
Give it.
[ squealing ]
[ tweets ]
Isn't it funny?
Your husband works for my
husband, and we girls never
get to socialize except here.
Why, yes, it's true.
I mean, we-- uh, yes.
Say, do you play tennis?
We should play sometime.
Well, I--
Well, of course you do!
We'll do doubles!
Gee, that would be--
It would be great,
wouldn't it?
[ seesaw squeaking ]
[ gurgling ]
[ squeals ]
Ooh-- whoa!
Hi...
[ class bell rings ]
[ squealing ]
Buh-Buh...
Eubie, look.
Say hi to Kelly.
Hi, Eubie.
"Greetings, Master Eubie!"
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh-buh-buh...
Buh-Buh, Buh-Buh...
Has he been doing that
all day?
Yes.
Buh-Buh...
I know, Eubie, dear.
We'll find your Buh-Buh.
Buh-Buh...
It's lost again?
Buh-Buh, Buh-Buh...!
Mom, can't you make him stop?
No.
Buh-Buh, Buh-Buh...
Well, could you please try,
because--
Pardon me, sweetheart?
I said, could you-- hey!
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh!
Oh, just forget it.
What, sweetheart?
I said just--
What did you say?
I said what?
What?!
What?!
What?!
I can't hear you!
[ laughing ]
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh!
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh?
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh!
I tell you what, Eubie,
when we get home,
I'll help you find Buh-Buh,
okay?
Buh-Buh!
It's the crazy baby again!
Whoa! Argh! Whoa! Oof!
Huh? Whoa!
Whoa!
I'm sorry! Sorry!
I'm really, really sorry!
I-- whoa!
Hi. Good morning.
Hi. Good morning.
How are you?
[ stammers ]
Hmm.
Hah! Hah!
There you go.
Oh! Cool.
Oh, I'm sorry, ma'am.
I've added it up twice
and you're still
eight dollars short.
Oh, my.
I'll handle this, Penny.
You shop here a lot,
don't you, ma'am?
We have a lot of respect
for our regular customers.
Here you go.
Four one-dollar-offs,
five half-pricers, and four
buy-one-get-one-frees.
Now you get a dollar twenty-five
change and...
four extra cans of garbanzos.
Thank you so much.
Thank youfor shopping here.
Thank you.
That was, like, so nice!
Goode! In my office!
Now!
Goode! I saw what you did
with that woman at the register.
How many times have I told you
not to give away food?
Well, technically speaking,
Mr. Rock, coupons are free.
So I didn't really
give anything away.
Yeah, I've thought about
that technicality,
otherwise I would've had you
arrested for shoplifting.
[ laughs ]
[ mock laughter ]
Mr. Rock, since you're in
such a good mood, I'd like to
talk to you about...
my raise.
Who gave you a raise?
Well, no one yet, Mr. Rock.
But I think it's about time
someone did.
And just why would that be?
Well, I'm punctual,
I'm efficient...
You're nothing if not that,
that's true.
And the customers all
love me.
That they do, that they do.
And, I've been Employee
of the Month for three
and a half years straight.
Do you know how many months
that is?
Can't say as I do.
You don't have to add it up.
It's 42 months.
42.
Well, you certainly make
a strong case for yourself,
Goode.
So I tell you what I'm gonna do
for you--
I am notgonna give you a raise!
Why, thank you, sir--
huh?
But I-I--
I don't know what to say,
Mr. Rock.
Say, "Thank you."
Thank you?!
You're welcome.
You're a good manager, Goode.
That's the problem.
You're toogood.
The only thing you're missing
is the one thing that got me
where I am today.
Guess what that thing is, Goode?
The fact that your wife's
father left you the store
after dying in a freak
produce-related accident?
Guess again.
Mr. Rock, I really need
this raise, otherwise
I wouldn't be--
Greed, Goode! Greed!
Greed, Mr. Rock?
It's the only missing
element in your resumé.
It's the only job skill
that's keeping you from being
a truly great manager!
Now, the way I figure it,
if you go long enough
without a raise, then eventually
you'll get greedy.
The greed, in turn, will make
you a better manager, and then
you'll deserve a raise!
Mr. Rock, I have to be
honest with you.
No matter how long I go
without a raise, I don't think
I'll ever get greedy.
I'm counting on that, Goode.
Now get back to work!
Ugh!
Ow!
Relax, Goode.
The trash can's on me.
Ugh!
Thanks, Mr. Rock.
Oh-hh!
[ crashes ]
Mo food! Mo, mo food!
Mo food! Mo, mo, mo food!
[ yelling continues ]
Mo food! Mo, mo food!
[ slurps, grunts ]
Ugh! Yuck!
[ grunts ]
Seems like he's pickier
than usual tonight.
[ slurps, grunts ]
[ loud burp ]
Ugh! Mom! Dad!
Eubie is making me sick!
Can I just eat
in front of the TV?
Of course not, Kell.
Dinnertime is one of the most
important times we have
as a family.
Oh, great.
Besides, don't you wanna know
what special goodies Dad brought
home from the market today?
More stale donuts?
That's "day-old
bakery goods," Kell.
Because, as you know--
"Nothing should go to waste.
Everything has its place!"
[ giggles ]
I know, I know.
That's right.
And just for you kids...
last month's leftover
cereal inventory!
Could be a little stale.
Oh, boy!
Fruity-Os! Fruity-Os!
Just what I needed, Dad!
I'm a hero.
There! Now I have enough
box bottoms for a Princess
Trolla RV Playset!
Yay!
And for you, my dear.
You brought something for me?
The $1.99 Flower Special,
from last Tuesday.
How romantic!
[ laughing ]
Whee!
Eubie-ee!
Oh!
Ah-pah!
[ squeaks ]
Er...
is it my imagination,
or is Eubie even more...
"special" than usual tonight?
Well, he's being pretty good,
considering.
Considering what?
Well, he lost his...
Uh...?
Oobie-ay ost-lay
is-ay Uh-Buh-bay.
I don't get it, Kell.
Are you saying that Eubie
lost Buh-Buh?
[ groans ]
Buh-Buh-hh!
Aw, no...
[ Eubie screams ]
Prince Eubie, will you marry
Princess Trolla?
Ah-hah-hah...
Well, will you or will you not?
Pinchess Toll!
Ba-ba, Pinchess Toll!
I'll take that as a yes.
Princess Trolla,
will you marry Lord Eubie?
"Oh, I suppose so."
Lord Eubie, do you agree
to love Princess Trolla
with all of your heart?
Toll! Toll! Pinchess Toll!
Pinchess Toll!
Okay, then. Prince Eubie,
you may now kiss the bride.
Yay!
[ pops ]
Mmm-ah, mwah, mwah!
Mom!
Wah-hh!
Mom!
Ugh!
Eubie?
What have you got?
Bah doo-noo.
Hand over that head!
[ pops, squeaks ]
"Prince Eubie, you are hereby
banished from my kingdom
forever!"
[ razzes ]
Kelly--
"Banished, I tell you!"
Kelly--?
"Banished!"
Kelly!
What, Mom?
It's time for bed.
Bed? It's still light out.
What did I do?
Well, honey, we thought you
might do us a big favor and
go a little bit early tonight.
We thought since Eubie
lost... you know,
his... you know--
well, that you might sleep
in his room tonight.
Okay, but then
where's Eubie gonna sleep?
Kelly, do you remember
the last time Eubie lost...
you know... lost it?
Remember he would only sleep
with you in the room?
Sleep? Sleep?
He never sleeps!
He played peek-a-boo and he
kicked me in the back
all night long.
Kelly, please?
I'm sorry, Mom,
but I-- I won't do it.
Nuh-uh! No!
[ snoring ]
Up until now,
today kind of stunk.
I got shot down on my raise.
I threw a whole coffeehouse
into lemon shock.
Then we come home
to a mailbox full of bills.
Add another to the list.
When I pulled into the driveway
tonight, something fell off
the car.
Gas, electric, water, phone.
If my calculations are correct,
we can afford any two of those
four modern conveniences.
Your choice, dear.
Honey...
"Nuts of the Month"?
Who did we buy
"Nuts of the Month" for?
We gave it to the Rocks
for Christmas.
Perfect.
Still it's kind of hard
to be down when you look
at those two.
The Rocks?
The kids.
Gotcha.
Oh, you--!
[ laughing ]
Shh, shh shh-shh.
The way they're sleeping,
we might even get a few hours
of shut-eye ourselves tonight.
[ squeaks ]
[ squeaks ]
Huh...?
[ screams ]
[ snoring within ]
Buh-Buh...
Coo-- Buh-Buh?
Buh-Buh--!
Mom!
Mom! Eubie stole
Princess Trolla's head again!
How can Princess Trolla rule
over her kingdom like this?
How can she wear
her sparkly crown?
You! You promised
not to do this anymore!
Don't even talk to me
till you cough up the head!
[ coughs ]
[ chuckles ]
Very funny!
Kelly, I promise I'll help
find Princess Trolla's head.
In the meantime, your ride's
here.
Kell, if you don't kiss him
goodbye, he'll cry all morning.
Find the head...
or you sleep alone!
[ slams ]
Well, looks like we need
a new teddy bear and a new
Princess Trolla, huh?
Buh-Buh...?
Buh-Buh?! Buh-Buh!
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh-hh!
Wish me luck again, Eubie.
Glucken again, Mama!
Will you try it,
or are you afraid?
Of course I'm afraid.
We're all afraid.
You're lucky I'm a chocoholic.
[ grunts ]
[ grunting ]
I call it my "chocolate
truffle surprise."
Chocolate truffle...
Soo-prize!
So that's where Princess
Trolla's head went.
Surprise is right.
Not every day you see this
sort of thing in a cake.
Raisins, maybe.
Nuts on occasion, but this,
Gloria-- this is truly original.
[ babbles ]
Oh, I'd really appreciate it
if you'd at least taste it.
Just mush it up with a fork
first to make sure it's safe.
You don't give up, do you?
Mmm...!
Mmm-mm-mm-mm!
What is it?
Is it something sharp?
Mmm! It's the best cake
I've ever eaten.
If I could sell this
in my place, we'd both get rich.
Unfortunately I can't serve
desserts with a warning label.
Listen, Eubie's having
his second birthday party
tomorrow.
See, if I can fill up a whole
dessert table without serving up
a doll part, you can consider
making me an offer.
Tempted. Maybe.
No way.
Maybe-- okay.
Noon. Saturday. My house.
Don't, like, let them
commercialize your work, lady.
The doll head was, you know,
like, an amazingtouch.
Thank you.
"Mr. Rock, I thought about
what you said yesterday,
and I agree that sometimes,
in some situations,
greed canbe a good thing."
Hmm-- no, no. That's a lie.
"Mr. Rock, I thought about
what you said yesterday and...
well, quite frankly,
I had a dream about choking you
with your tie, and--"
No. Too honest.
And I'm telling you
that you still have
a hundred pounds of frozen cod
to stock.
But I--
I-- ooh-- ah-choo!
Melvin, do you know
what frozen cod is
when it isn't frozen anymore?
[ gulps, shudders ]
J-just c-cod, sir?
Worse than that, Melvin.
It's a horrible, smelly fish
that no one--
except for possibly a few
very disturbed individuals--
would want to buy.
Now get back in that freezer
or you're fired!
I-I--
[ sneezes ]
...quit-choo! I quit!
Oh, yeah? Well, er...
I fired you first!
Now, where will I ever find
the equal to a stupid
high school kid with no
marketable job skills?
Hmm, let me see...
Goode?
Mr. Rock,
I need to talk to you.
Fine. Talk to me--
from inside the freezer.
You can etch your sentiments
in the frost.
[ laughs ]
[ laughs ]
But seriously, Mr. Rock.
I've been thinking about
what you said yesterday.
Oh, you mean about keeping
my trash can?
I've changed my mind about that.
You see, I've discovered
I'm a lot less accurate
putting into my coffee cup.
No, I mean-- ahem--
about my raise.
I think you're being
unreasonable, Mr. Rock.
I have two kids and a mortgage.
And a car with pieces
falling off of it.
And you just fired
my only ride to work.
And I want more money, Mr. Rock!
I need more money.
I have to have more money!
[ nervous chuckling ]
Um...
Good, Goode!
Very, very good!
You're definitely getting
greedier!
I think about another six months
without a raise should do it.
Now get moving.
I'm starting to smell cod here.
Ungh-hh!
[ grunts ]
Bernie! Bernie Rock!
Hi, Midge. Hi, Lulu. Heidi.
Hi, Mr. Rock.
How about a big kiss
from Daddy's little girl?
Wah-hh!
Never touch the lollipop,
Bernie. You know that. Never.
Is that better, sweetie?
Oh, ja.
Hey, I just fired you!
I found him shivering
in the parking lot and I
gave him his job back.
Wait a minute--
Can it, or I'll give him
a raise, too.
Hello, Cornelius, how are you?
Well, speaking of a raise--
Now, Bernie, what are you
doing standing around
with a pile of fish bricks?
We're having dinner at my
mother's tonight and you're
doing the cooking.
Honey, as much as I love
cooking for you and your mother,
there's a lot of work
to be done around here.
Better cancel. I'm so sorry.
Oh, no, yougo ahead.
I'llstack the cod.
Gee, thanks, Corny,
but it's a special job,
and I really feel
I need to do it myself.
Why, look, it's Gloria
and little Eubie.
What a nice surprise.
Hi, Midge.
Hello, dear.
Hi, Gloria. Hi, Eubie.
[ sniffing ]
Pee-yew!
Yuck!
Eubie!
He's right, Gloria.
Something does smell,
and it's Bernie!
He stinks of cod!
Yeah, Bernie really stinks
today, all right.
Pee-yew!
Pee-yew-- oh-hh!
Oh-hh...!
[ babbles ]
Pinchess Tolla!
Would you look at that,
they love each other!
Eubie even invited Lulu
to his birthday party
on Saturday, didn't he, Lulu?
Wait a minute, I'm playing
golf on Saturday--
We're going to the party,
and that's that.
By the way, Gloria, have you
seen my new convertible?
Why, no. I haven't.
[ rattles ]
Oh, but I'd love to.
Come on. I'll take you
and Corny for a ride
while Bernie finishes
with his fish.
Heidi, you watch the kids.
And no boys, okay?
Ja,okay.
Of course, uh-huh, no.
All right, who wants
to volunteer for duty?
[ giggles ]
Ja...
[ sucking ]
Oh...
Bah...?
Ah...!
Ta-da!
Ah!
Ah!
[ grunts ]
Oh--!
Whoa!
[ giggles ]
[ giggles ]
Uh...?
[ engine starts ]
[ babbles ]
Just listen to that baby purr.
Well, it sure sounds
a lot better than our ca-- argh!

Oh... ah!

[ giggles ]
What did I tell ya?
It almost drives itself!
Uh-huh...!
[ babbles ]
[ giggles ]
[ Lulu giggles ]
Heh!
[ woman humming ]
Wha...?
What do you know?
Caviar's on sale for...
for 99 cents?!
[ Lulu yelping ]
Steak is 99 cents, too!
Everything in the store
is on sale for 99 cents!
Edna, you'll never believe
this-- ShopWell is having
a 99-cent sale.
Yeah! Bring the pickup!
[ shoppers chattering ]
[ truck horn honks ]
[ screaming ]
It's got all the extras,
including a state-of-the-art
stereo system.
It's so fancy that I haven't
even figured out how to adjust
the stations yet.
[ squeaking ]
[ music blares ]
[ tires screeching ]
[ Eubie grunting ]
Hah...?
[ classical music plays ]
Oh, boy... Buh-Buh!
Wha...?
[ panting ]
Yaggh-hh!
Ba, Buh-Buh!
[ screaming ]
Buh-Buh, Buh-Buh!
[ tires screeching ]
[ chuckles ]
How's that for handling?
Great--!
[ Wolfgang yelling ]
Buh-Buh-hh!
[ tires screeching ]
Hey-yy!
You're supposed to accelerate
into the turns, you know.
[ panting ]
[ panting ]
[ yelling ]
[ engine roars ]
Whoo!
I could never have made
this light in my old car!
[ yelping ]
[ Eubie screeching ]
[ Midge chuckling ]
I don't understand it.
35 years in the business
and now I'm stocking cod.
[ yelping ]
[ yells ]
What's going on around here?
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh!
Ow!
Hey, this door is locked!
Somebody get me out of here!
Hey! Hey, you,
I'm stuck in here!
[ chattering ]
Whoa-aa!
[ grunting ]
[ giggling ]
Ah...?!
Here you go.
Have a nice day.
[ panting ]
[ tires screeching ]
[ humming ]
Buh-Buh!
[ tires screeching ]
Huh?
Well, what do you think?
[ moaning ]
Buh-Buh!
Oh-- Buh-Buh...!
My, the store seems to be
doing a bang-up business today.
People sure are stocking up.
I wonder if we're expecting
a natural disaster.
We're having a 99-cent sale!
Oh. What?!
No! No, we're not!
[ gasps ]
[ Eubie screaming ]
Now, if I don't get some help
in here soon...
Oh, no...
it's going to get
very, very unpleasant.
[ bangs ]
I've been patient with you
people so far, but I'm losing
control.
Now, somebody get in here
and get me out of this thing!
I mean it! This minute!
Mr. Rock?
Goode?! Goode?!
[ growls ]
[ gulps ]
[ voices chattering ]
Parents? Parents?
Eyes up here.
Ahem. Thank you.
Thank you all again
for visiting our classroom
tonight.
Now, before you go,
we have a special
Parents' Night treat.
Oh, I know how much each of you
parents love your children.
[ razzing ]
Uh, yes. And so tonight,
on Parents' Night, the children
are going to share with you,
their families, how much
they loveyou.
[ applause ]
Okay-- um...
I love my mom and my dad, um,
and I love my little brother,
Buddy--
even though I think
he gave me his head lice.
[ applause ]
I love my mom,
and I love my dad,
and I love my little sister
Cathy, but most of all,
I love me!
I love me because I'm pretty,
and because I'm smart,
and because--
did I say I was pretty yet?
[ giggles ]
[ applause ]
[ coughs ]
Okay, uh...
what was it, what was it?
Oh, yeah, um...
[ sniffles ]
Um...
[ gulps ]
Thank you, Victor.
[ applause ]
Oh...!
And our last student
to speak tonight will be
Kelly Goode.
[ applause ]
Oh, doesn't she look great?
She is so cute!
Ah-- Kell-Kelly!
Shh.
Ahem. "My Family,
by Kelly Goode."
Ahem.
"My mom is real beautiful,
just like a queen.
But she does so much stuff,
she works like a machine.
She cleans and she washes,
she sews and she bakes.
My mom makes the world's
bestest cookies and cakes.
She's a chauf and a--
she's a chef and a chauffeur,
a teacher, a pal.
My best friend and playmate
and one heck of a gal!"
Oh-hh...
"My dad is a hero.
He works every day.
And he runs in a rat race,
but he still likes to play.
He's smart, and you listen
when mydad has spoken.
And he knows how to fix
all our stuff when it's broken.
My dad is so strong,
and he's real brave, of course.
But mostly, I love him
'cause he's a good horse!
But my brother, he's different
from Mom and from Dad,
'cause he's just a baby,
and sometimes he's bad."
Ah... Buh-Buh!
"To have me a brother,
I'm supposed to feel lucky.
But I think he's noisy
and slimy and yucky."
[ screams ]
"When he breaks all my toys,
I say bad things about him.
But he's my brother Eubie,
and I can't live without him!"
Oh-hh!
[ applause ]
Thank you very much!
Tank oo. Tank oo buss.
[ music playing within ]
Fries.
Can I have some ketchup?
Kelly, that was the nicest
speech I've ever heard.
You were great, Kelly.
Thanks, Dad.
Welcome to Happy Boy.
Now, what do you want?
Hmm. What exactly
is a "Happy Boy Pizza Surprise"?
Ya take a regular pizza
and you make a big Happy Boy
face on it outta tomatoes,
and presto-- you got your
Happy Boy Pizza Surprise.
You want that?
Ooh, that sounds like fun.
We'll take a large one of those
and four milks, please.
Ah! Cheezie, cheezie!
Oh, you're right, Eubie.
Could you put extra cheese
on that Happy Boy
Pizza Surprise?
Sorry, no substitutions.
But we--
So that'll be it? Okay.
May we have
some more napkins?
What am I, your mother?
On the table next to you there.
Help yourself.
You sure made us proud
up there, didn't she, Eubie?
Uh-huh!
[ clapping, giggling ]
Thanks, Eubie.
Here ya go.
Already?
Gee... thanks.
[ babbles ]
Cheezie pee-zah!
Could we have some more
silverware, please?
My shift's over.
Here's your check.
[ giggling ]
Honey, where's Eubie?
Oh, no!
Eubie? Eubie?
[ giggling ]
Eubie? Eubie?
Mustie!
No, no, no, no, Eubie!
Whatever you do,
don't squeeze.
[ squeals ]
Mustie!
[ giggles ]
Thanks for eating
at Happy Boy.
[ laughing ]
Oh, Eubie!
[ crickets chirping ]
Good night, you two.
Good night.
Night-night!
"I bid you good night,
Kelly's parents."
Don't worry, Eubie.
Tomorrow's your birthday,
and I have a funny feeling
we're gonna find Buh-Buh.
Get some sleep now, Eubie.
Big day tomorrow, birthday boy.
[ dog barking ]
[ snoring within ]
[ yawns ]
'Ake up!
Oobie up!
Hah!
[ babbling ]
Mama...?
[ giggling ]
Oh--!
Oh--!
Oh!
Ow-side.
Oobie ow-side.
Oo-ooh?
Wha--?
Huh? Uh-oh!
Wha--? Oh!
[ giggles ]
Ah...
[ giggles ]
'Appy Oobie Day!
[ giggles ]
[ toots ]
[ screams ]
Happy Oobie Day!
Happy birthday, sweetheart.
Yes, but it's
a little early to--
[ tooting ]
Oh!
[ giggling ]
Eubie? Eubie?
Come back here!
[ Eubie giggles ]
[ loud tooting ]
I hope this is another
nightmare.
Let's see.
Ow! Hey!
Nope. It's not.
It's 9:00.
We have exactly three hours.
It's impossible.
Not if we really,
really hurry.
I think we can do it.
"I agree, Kelly's parents!"
[ gurgling ]
[ giggles ]
[ gurgling ]
Come on, Eubie.
We only have two hours
and 36 minutes until your party.
[ giggles ]
[ babbles ]
[ squeals, giggles ]
Eubie? Eubie?
Come on, Eubie,
no kidding around here.
Eubie?
Whee!
Corny? Can you watch him
for a little while longer?
I can watch him,
I just can't catch him!
[ squeals, giggles ]
Ha! I've got you now!
Huh! Oomph!
Honey, look out,
the basement door is open--
Whoa-aa!
[ thumps, crashing ]
I'm okay!
[ crashing ]
[ moans ]
Aw, Eubie...
Kell, how many balloons
do you have there?
I don't know.
I can only count to 20.
Kell, I think
that'll be enough.
Why don't you help me
hang the piñata?
I can't believe you got
a rat piñata!
The guy at the store
swore to me that this
was a bear.
I wanted a bear-- you know,
like Buh-Buh.
Whoa!
The yard looks great.
[ squeals, giggles ]
Happy Oobie Day!
[ giggling ]
I think he likes
the decorations.
Corny, what's with
the rat piñata?
Dad thinks it's a bear.
Honey, it has beady eyes
and a pink tail.
It's a bear. It's a bear.
Now can we focus
on the positive here?
[ giggles ]
Eubie loves it, right, Eubie?
[ babbles ]
See?
[ laughs ]
[ babbles ]
I wonder what he's saying.
I don't know, but for
the first time in two days,
he seems to have forgotten
about... Buh-Buh.
[ rope creaking ]
[ softly ]
Oh, Buh-Buh...!
Oh, Buh-Buh...
[ ticking ]
Presents wrapped,
cakes and cupcakes baking.
Decorations secure.
Plastic bats collected.
Huh?
Plastic bats-- so the kids
can beat the rat.
The bear. Check.
Good thinking.
So, everything's set.
Oh--
What is it, dear?
Where's Eubie?
Foo-prize!
[ giggling ]
Oh! My desserts!
What did you say, Eubie?
Foo-prize!
[ sizzling ]
Kelly, where's
Princess Trolla's head?
"On my royal shoulders,
thank you."
Then whose head is this?
"It is my best friend,
Lifeguard Tiffany!"
Foo-prize!
[ giggling ]
It's Surgeon Cindy, M.D.!
Foo-prize!
Eubie, did you put anything
else in Mommy's desserts,
sweetheart?
Ah--! Uh-huh!
[ giggling ]
Did you put the things
in the cake that's in the oven?
Ah-hah!
Or in one of the seven trays
of cupcakes and pies?
Uh... foo-prize.
Well, the show must go on.
I'll set the snacks out.
Corny, you get into
your birthday costume!
Wait a minute.
You said I'd never
have to do that again.
Please? For Eubie?
Mmm-wah!
Aw, honey...
So is my boy all ready
for his party?
Look, Eubie! Look who it is.
I look like a moron.
Do the dance.
He likes the dance.
All right.
[ sighs ]
Huh. He liked it last year.
They're here!
I'll get it!
[ kids squealing ]
Nice to see you,
Mr. and Mrs. Rock.
Heidi. Lulu.
Hey, whaddya know?
Look at this, Midge--
a talking doormat.
[ chuckles ]
Corny, is that you?
Oh, look, Lulu, Eubie's father
is dressed up like a silly...
alligator... thing.
Okay, maybe if you
make the alligator noises
or something, she would laugh.
Ja.
Sorry, all I do is dance.
You'd make a better coatrack
Goode, if you stood up.
[ grunts ]
[ mimics trumpet fanfare ]
And now, kids,
a little dino-tainment!
[ humming ]
Cha cha-cha, cha-cha!
[ humming ]
Cha-- oof!
[ laughing ]
Oh!
Huh?
[ sniffing ]
[ screams ]
Corny, your tail's on fire!
Aggh! My tail's on fire!
I got you covered, Goode!
Whoa-aa!
I'm coming, Goode!
Whew! It's okay, Mr. Rock,
the fire's...
...out.
[ laughter ]
[ voices overlapping ]
Hokey-donkey!
There you go.
[ voices overlapping ]
[ yowls ]
Ooh! Ooh!
Mmm-hmm.
Oh-hh!
Mmm...?
[ chuckles ]
Mmm...?
It's piñata time!
[ kids chattering ]
This bear thing
is called a "piñata."
It looks like a rat.
It's a bear!
[ silence ]
All right, let's just say
it's a rat.
Either way, it's still a piñata,
and it's still full of all kinds
of goodies.
How do we get
the goodies out?
Well, that's the fun part.
You beat on the rat
with these bats
until it breaks open
and all the goodies
fall out to the ground.
Okay, kids! Ready?
On your marks...
get set...
go!
Here. Watch me.
[ kids giggling ]
Okay, come on!
Swing those bats!
Ow! Hey! Hey!
Ow, ooh, ow, ow!
Not funny anymore.
Not funny!
[ giggling ]
Slow down here.
Somebody's going to
time outin a minute.
I'm not kidding!
Oh, no!
[ grunts ]
Ouch! Woowoo!
Woowoo!
Ouch!
Ooh-- bye-bye, Ouch.
Hey!
Ow! Hey! Ooh!
[ giggling ]
So I look him right
in the eye and I say-- Ouch!
[ laughs ]
I'll take that, dear.
Thank you.
[ laughs ]
[ whacking ]
[ kids grunting ]
Lousy rat!
[ grunting, panting ]
[ thumping ]
[ grunting, panting ]
[ whirring ]
[ man cheers ]
Yes!
No more rats in my house!
[ groans ]
Well, Goode,
at least we tried.
Stupid piñata.
[ grumbling ]
Let it go, Mr. Rock.
Let it go, Let it go.
[ grunting ]
Great party, Corny.
My little Lulu is having
the time of her life.
I'm glad. I felt really bad
about what happened with her
and Eubie at the store
yesterday.
Bad? What-- didn't--
didn't Bernie tell you?
Tell me what?
Bernie! You better have
told him!
Sure, I told him.
You told me to tell him
and I told him.
Told me...?
[ stammers ]
Told me... everything.
He told me the whole story.
Can you believe it?
Gloria, can you believe
that little sale of Eubie's
and Lulu's actually
made the store money?
No!
No!
I mean, no wonderit did.
It's amazing.
How exactly didthat work
again?
We sold so much volume
that it didn't matter
how cheap the stuff was!
And your husband has
another piece of good news
for you, too.
What, honey?
Bernie?!
I told him!
Tell Gloria the news, Corny!
What news, dear?
Uh, you tell her, Mrs. Rock.
I'm still too... overwhelmed.
I made Bernie give your Corny
a long overdue raise!
Yes!
I get excited no matter
how many times I hear it!
I couldn't believe how little
this cheapskate was paying you!
Me either!
[ laughing ]
I hope he was generous
with you, Corny.
Bernie, were you generous?
Uh, yeah. Sure.
Oh, he's going to be--
I mean, wasvery, very generous.
Yep, he jacked my pay up 25%
and made me district manager
for the entire chain!
I-I did not--
mean to wait so long to do it!
Of course I'll still do
all my regular jobs
around the store!
Otherwise, Bernie
would have to work for a living.
And he wouldn't want that!
Come on, Gloria.
I want you to give me the recipe
for those chewy bear cupcakes.
There were chewy bears
in the cupcakes?
Ahem--!
Goode, that was one of the
lowest, sleaziest displays
I have ever witnessed.
I have a whole new respect
for you.
And by the way, thanks for
covering for me with my wife.
You're okay, Goode!
Don't mention it.
But I'm only giving you
a 20% raise.
Really? But Mrs. Rock
said I'd--
All right, all right!
We'll stick with the 25.
[ laughs ]
Ecch.
Time for cake and presents!
Happy birthday, Eubie!
Happy birthday, Eubie!
Okay, Eubie, make a wish
and blow out the candles.
[ mutters ]
...Buh-Buh!
[ laughter ]
Yeah-yeah-yeah!
Huh?
What do you say, Eubie?
Uh--? No Buh-Buh?
Ecch!
That's his word
for "thank you."
[ babbling ]
What do you say?
Uh-- no Buh-Buh!
[ screams ]
He loves it.
[ babbling ]
Huh...?
Turn the handle, Eubie.
See what's inside.
[ music tinkles ]
[ Eubie screams ]
Where Buh-Buh?
Happy birthday, Eubie.
[ babbles ]
That's not what I think
it is...?
I had to go to 20 stores
to find it.
It's the same model
as the original.
He'll never fall for it.
Sure, he will. Watch.
Buh-Buh?!
How--?
I ran it through the spin
cycle a few times, then I
pulled out one of the eyes.
Pretty smart, eh?
Uh, Buh-Buh?
Oh, boy.
I hope I pulled out
the right eye.
No, I think it was
the left eye.
[ whines ]
No Buh-Buh. Buh-Buh no!
Aw-ww...
Sorry, buddy.
[ sobs ]
Sorry, Eubie.
Gloria...?
Betty? Where are you?
Over here.
Betty, are you okay?
I tested every single
dessert.
I feel like I ate a moose.
You found a moose
in the cupcakes?
[ chuckles ]
On the Betty Scale,
you get a 10 for flavor,
a 10 for presentation,
and a five for the car keys
I pulled out of the cherry pie.
Well, at least I tried.
And, you showed improvement.
Maybe next time, huh?
Oh, forget next time.
I've decided to hire you anyway.
You're kidding!
I have to.
You have a gift, Gloria--
a gift that's too profound
to share only with your family.
The way you bake, you should be
out making the whole world fat.
For starters, I want as many
of those birthday cakes
as you can make.
The coffee grounds
were a great touch.
Coffee grounds? Coffee grounds?
Eubie?
Eubie?! Eubie?!
Oh, Buh-Buh, me...
[ gasps ]
Ah!
[ gasps ]
Buh-Buh?
Buh-Buh!
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh!
[ giggling ]
Eubie?
Eubie?
Eubie?
Eu-bie!
Lulu, dear,
how did you get so messy?
Ah, Woowoo! Woowoo!
What was that?
Woowoo!
[ chuckles ]
Oh, it's just Eubie,
floating away on some balloons.
Floating away on balloons?!
Argh! Bernie!
Bye-bye!
Eubie! Wow,
I hope I get balloons
at my next birthday party!
Mom!
I told you, he was floating!
Eubie was floating!
Of course he was, dearest.
Did he have wings
or a propeller?
Mom, can I have balloons
like Eubie's at my next
birthday party?
Eubie? Eubie!
Eubie!
Gloria, I can't find Eubie.
I've looked everywhere.
Oh, yeah?
Well, did you look up?
Oh, no! My baby!
Eubie?!
All right, honey. Don't worry.
We can spot him from below.
Let's go! Everybody in the car!
Bernie and I'll help.
Heidi!
Get your clogs over here
and watch Lulu!
Oh, ja,of course. Uh-huh!
Hurry, honey.
Come on, Gloria.
All right, guys. This way.
[ sputters ]
[ crashes ]
How about my car?
Great idea! Hop in!
Honey, are you sure
you wanna-- whoa-aa!
Follow that baby!
Seat belt! Seat belt!
Seat belt!
[ babbling ]
[ giggling ]
Buh-Buh... Buh-Buh?!
Ah-- Buh-Buh...!
Hey! Hey!
[ gasps ]
[ pops ]
Way-- whoa!
Are we dead yet?
Oh, don't be a wimp, Bernie!
Gloria has this well in hand.
[ truck horn blares ]
[ horn blares ]
Hold on!
There he is!
He's headed to the park!
Buh-Buh?
Buh-Buh!
[ gasps ]
Oh--!

You woke Princess Trolla up

Oh, sorry, Kell.

She's not very sleepy anymore.

He lost his bear again?
Buh-Buh! Where Buh-Buh?

so we can all get some sleep.

She's such a good sport.
Yeah. Great kid.
We have two great kids.
I can't believe this one
is gonna be two in a few days.
I can't believe it either.
We have to start saving
for college.
Do you know how expensive
college is these days?
I mean we're gonna need
at least 17 years
to save that kind of money.
And don't forget about
all the expense in the meantime.
There's in-line skates
and braces and a new car,
and there's summer camp
and swimming lessons,
and a new car,
and what if Eubie wants
to learn to play the drums,
or the tuba, even?
And come to think of it,
we might need a new car.
Okay, okay. I'll stop.
But tomorrow, I'm asking
Mr. Rock for a raise.
I want to start bringing in
some money myself.
I've even been talking to Betty
down at the gourmet coffee shop
about maybe stocking some of
my desserts.
Hey, being a mom's
already a full-time job, honey.
I know.
But it doesn't pay a dime.
But if I could work at home,
we could avoid putting Eubie
in day care.
Well, I'm sure the daycare
people would like to avoid
that too, honey.
Oh, you!

You shop here a lot,

We have a lot of respect
for our regular customers.
Here you go.

five half-pricers, and four

Now you get a dollar twenty-five

four extra cans of garbanzos.
Thank you so much.
Thank youfor shopping here.
Thank you.
That was, like, so nice!
Goode! In my office!
Now!
Goode! I saw what you did
with that woman at the register.
How many times have I told you
not to give away food?
Well, technically speaking,
Mr. Rock, coupons are free.
So I didn't really
give anything away.
Yeah, I've thought about
that technicality,
otherwise I would've had you
arrested for shoplifting.
[ laughs ]
[ mock laughter ]
Mr. Rock, since you're in
such a good mood, I'd like to
talk to you about...
my raise.
Who gave you a raise?
Well, no one yet, Mr. Rock.
But I think it's about time
someone did.
And just why would that be?
Well, I'm punctual,
I'm efficient...
You're nothing if not that,
that's true.
And the customers all
love me.
That they do, that they do.
And, I've been Employee
of the Month for three
and a half years straight.
Do you know how many months
that is?
Can't say as I do.
You don't have to add it up.
It's 42 months.
42.
Well, you certainly make
a strong case for yourself,
Goode.
So I tell you what I'm gonna do
for you--
I am notgonna give you a raise!
Why, thank you, sir--
huh?
But I-I--
I don't know what to say,
Mr. Rock.
Say, "Thank you."
Thank you?!
You're welcome.
You're a good manager, Goode.
That's the problem.
You're toogood.
The only thing you're missing
is the one thing that got me
where I am today.
Guess what that thing is, Goode?
The fact that your wife's
father left you the store
after dying in a freak
produce-related accident?
Guess again.
Mr. Rock, I really need
this raise, otherwise
I wouldn't be--
Greed, Goode! Greed!
Greed, Mr. Rock?
It's the only missing
element in your resumé.
It's the only job skill
that's keeping you from being
a truly great manager!
Now, the way I figure it,
if you go long enough
without a raise, then eventually
you'll get greedy.
The greed, in turn, will make
you a better manager, and then
you'll deserve a raise!
Mr. Rock, I have to be
honest with you.
No matter how long I go
without a raise, I don't think
I'll ever get greedy.
I'm counting on that, Goode.
Now get back to work!
Ugh!
Ow!
Relax, Goode.
The trash can's on me.
Ugh!
Thanks, Mr. Rock.
Oh-hh!

will you marry Lord Eubie?
"Oh, I suppose so."
Lord Eubie, do you agree
to love Princess Trolla
with all of your heart?
Toll! Toll! Pinchess Toll!
Pinchess Toll!
Okay, then. Prince Eubie,
you may now kiss the bride.
Yay!
[ pops ]
Mmm-ah, mwah, mwah!
Mom!
Wah-hh!
Mom!
Ugh!
Eubie?
What have you got?
Bah doo-noo.
Hand over that head!
[ pops, squeaks ]
"Prince Eubie, you are hereby
banished from my kingdom
forever!"
[ razzes ]
Kelly--
"Banished, I tell you!"
Kelly--?
"Banished!"
Kelly!
What, Mom?
It's time for bed.
Bed? It's still light out.
What did I do?
Well, honey, we thought you
might do us a big favor and
go a little bit early tonight.
We thought since Eubie
lost... you know,
his... you know--
well, that you might sleep
in his room tonight.
Okay, but then
where's Eubie gonna sleep?
Kelly, do you remember
the last time Eubie lost...
you know... lost it?
Remember he would only sleep
with you in the room?
Sleep? Sleep?
He never sleeps!
He played peek-a-boo and he
kicked me in the back
all night long.
Kelly, please?
I'm sorry, Mom,
but I-- I won't do it.
Nuh-uh! No!
[ snoring ]
Up until now,
today kind of stunk.
I got shot down on my raise.
I threw a whole coffeehouse
into lemon shock.
Then we come home
to a mailbox full of bills.
Add another to the list.
When I pulled into the driveway
tonight, something fell off
the car.
Gas, electric, water, phone.
If my calculations are correct,
we can afford any two of those
four modern conveniences.
Your choice, dear.
Honey...
"Nuts of the Month"?
Who did we buy
"Nuts of the Month" for?
We gave it to the Rocks
for Christmas.
Perfect.
Still it's kind of hard
to be down when you look
at those two.
The Rocks?
The kids.
Gotcha.
Oh, you--!
[ laughing ]
Shh, shh shh-shh.
The way they're sleeping,
we might even get a few hours
of shut-eye ourselves tonight.
[ squeaks ]
[ squeaks ]
Huh...?
[ screams ]
[ snoring within ]
Buh-Buh...
Coo-- Buh-Buh?
Buh-Buh--!
Mom!
Mom! Eubie stole
Princess Trolla's head again!
How can Princess Trolla rule
over her kingdom like this?
How can she wear
her sparkly crown?
You! You promised
not to do this anymore!
Don't even talk to me
till you cough up the head!
[ coughs ]
[ chuckles ]
Very funny!
Kelly, I promise I'll help
find Princess Trolla's head.
In the meantime, your ride's
here.
Kell, if you don't kiss him
goodbye, he'll cry all morning.
Find the head...
or you sleep alone!
[ slams ]
Well, looks like we need
a new teddy bear and a new
Princess Trolla, huh?
Buh-Buh...?
Buh-Buh?! Buh-Buh!
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh-hh!
Wish me luck again, Eubie.
Glucken again, Mama!
Will you try it,
or are you afraid?
Of course I'm afraid.
We're all afraid.
You're lucky I'm a chocoholic.
[ grunts ]
[ grunting ]
I call it my "chocolate
truffle surprise."
Chocolate truffle...
Soo-prize!
So that's where Princess
Trolla's head went.
Surprise is right.
Not every day you see this
sort of thing in a cake.
Raisins, maybe.
Nuts on occasion, but this,
Gloria-- this is truly original.
[ babbles ]
Oh, I'd really appreciate it
if you'd at least taste it.
Just mush it up with a fork
first to make sure it's safe.
You don't give up, do you?
Mmm...!
Mmm-mm-mm-mm!
What is it?
Is it something sharp?
Mmm! It's the best cake
I've ever eaten.
If I could sell this
in my place, we'd both get rich.
Unfortunately I can't serve
desserts with a warning label.
Listen, Eubie's having
his second birthday party
tomorrow.
See, if I can fill up a whole
dessert table without serving up
a doll part, you can consider
making me an offer.
Tempted. Maybe.
No way.
Maybe-- okay.
Noon. Saturday. My house.
Don't, like, let them
commercialize your work, lady.
The doll head was, you know,
like, an amazingtouch.
Thank you.
"Mr. Rock, I thought about
what you said yesterday,
and I agree that sometimes,
in some situations,
greed canbe a good thing."
Hmm-- no, no. That's a lie.
"Mr. Rock, I thought about
what you said yesterday and...
well, quite frankly,
I had a dream about choking you
with your tie, and--"
No. Too honest.
And I'm telling you
that you still have
a hundred pounds of frozen cod
to stock.
But I--
I-- ooh-- ah-choo!
Melvin, do you know
what frozen cod is
when it isn't frozen anymore?
[ gulps, shudders ]
J-just c-cod, sir?
Worse than that, Melvin.
It's a horrible, smelly fish
that no one--
except for possibly a few
very disturbed individuals--
would want to buy.
Now get back in that freezer
or you're fired!
I-I--
[ sneezes ]
...quit-choo! I quit!
Oh, yeah? Well, er...
I fired you first!
Now, where will I ever find
the equal to a stupid
high school kid with no
marketable job skills?
Hmm, let me see...
Goode?
Mr. Rock,
I need to talk to you.
Fine. Talk to me--
from inside the freezer.
You can etch your sentiments
in the frost.
[ laughs ]
[ laughs ]
But seriously, Mr. Rock.
I've been thinking about
what you said yesterday.
Oh, you mean about keeping
my trash can?
I've changed my mind about that.
You see, I've discovered
I'm a lot less accurate
putting into my coffee cup.
No, I mean-- ahem--
about my raise.
I think you're being
unreasonable, Mr. Rock.
I have two kids and a mortgage.
And a car with pieces
falling off of it.
And you just fired
my only ride to work.
And I want more money, Mr. Rock!
I need more money.
I have to have more money!
[ nervous chuckling ]
Um...
Good, Goode!
Very, very good!
You're definitely getting
greedier!
I think about another six months
without a raise should do it.
Now get moving.
I'm starting to smell cod here.
Ungh-hh!
[ grunts ]
Bernie! Bernie Rock!
Hi, Midge. Hi, Lulu. Heidi.
Hi, Mr. Rock.
How about a big kiss
from Daddy's little girl?
Wah-hh!
Never touch the lollipop,
Bernie. You know that. Never.
Is that better, sweetie?
Oh, ja.
Hey, I just fired you!
I found him shivering
in the parking lot and I
gave him his job back.
Wait a minute--
Can it, or I'll give him
a raise, too.
Hello, Cornelius, how are you?
Well, speaking of a raise--
Now, Bernie, what are you
doing standing around
with a pile of fish bricks?
We're having dinner at my
mother's tonight and you're
doing the cooking.
Honey, as much as I love
cooking for you and your mother,
there's a lot of work
to be done around here.
Better cancel. I'm so sorry.
Oh, no, yougo ahead.
I'llstack the cod.
Gee, thanks, Corny,
but it's a special job,
and I really feel
I need to do it myself.
Why, look, it's Gloria
and little Eubie.
What a nice surprise.
Hi, Midge.
Hello, dear.
Hi, Gloria. Hi, Eubie.
[ sniffing ]
Pee-yew!
Yuck!
Eubie!
He's right, Gloria.
Something does smell,
and it's Bernie!
He stinks of cod!
Yeah, Bernie really stinks
today, all right.
Pee-yew!
Pee-yew-- oh-hh!
Oh-hh...!
[ babbles ]
Pinchess Tolla!
Would you look at that,
they love each other!
Eubie even invited Lulu
to his birthday party
on Saturday, didn't he, Lulu?
Wait a minute, I'm playing
golf on Saturday--
We're going to the party,
and that's that.
By the way, Gloria, have you
seen my new convertible?
Why, no. I haven't.
[ rattles ]
Oh, but I'd love to.
Come on. I'll take you
and Corny for a ride
while Bernie finishes
with his fish.
Heidi, you watch the kids.
And no boys, okay?
Ja,okay.
Of course, uh-huh, no.
All right, who wants
to volunteer for duty?
[ giggles ]
Ja...
[ sucking ]
Oh...
Bah...?
Ah...!
Ta-da!
Ah!
Ah!
[ grunts ]
Oh--!
Whoa!
[ giggles ]
[ giggles ]
Uh...?
[ engine starts ]
[ babbles ]
Just listen to that baby purr.
Well, it sure sounds
a lot better than our ca-- argh!
[ tires screeching ]

Oh... ah!
[ babbles ]
[ giggles ]
What did I tell ya?
It almost drives itself!
Uh-huh...!
[ babbles ]
[ giggles ]
[ Lulu giggles ]
Heh!
[ woman humming ]
Wha...?
What do you know?
Caviar's on sale for...
for 99 cents?!
[ Lulu yelping ]
Steak is 99 cents, too!
Everything in the store
is on sale for 99 cents!
Edna, you'll never believe
this-- ShopWell is having
a 99-cent sale.
Yeah! Bring the pickup!
[ shoppers chattering ]
[ truck horn honks ]
[ screaming ]
It's got all the extras,
including a state-of-the-art
stereo system.
It's so fancy that I haven't
even figured out how to adjust
the stations yet.
[ squeaking ]
[ music blares ]
[ tires screeching ]
[ Eubie grunting ]
Hah...?
[ classical music plays ]
Oh, boy... Buh-Buh!
Wha...?
[ panting ]
Yaggh-hh!
Ba, Buh-Buh!
[ screaming ]
Buh-Buh, Buh-Buh!
[ tires screeching ]
[ chuckles ]
How's that for handling?
Great--!
[ Wolfgang yelling ]
Buh-Buh-hh!
[ tires screeching ]
Hey-yy!
You're supposed to accelerate
into the turns, you know.
[ panting ]
[ panting ]
[ yelling ]
[ engine roars ]
Whoo!
I could never have made
this light in my old car!
[ yelping ]
[ Eubie screeching ]
[ Midge chuckling ]
I don't understand it.
35 years in the business
and now I'm stocking cod.
[ yelping ]
[ yells ]
What's going on around here?
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh!
Ow!
Hey, this door is locked!
Somebody get me out of here!
Hey! Hey, you,
I'm stuck in here!
[ chattering ]
Whoa-aa!
[ grunting ]
[ giggling ]
Ah...?!
Here you go.
Have a nice day.
[ panting ]
[ tires screeching ]
[ humming ]
Buh-Buh!
[ tires screeching ]
Huh?
Well, what do you think?
[ moaning ]
Buh-Buh!
Oh-- Buh-Buh...!
My, the store seems to be
doing a bang-up business today.
People sure are stocking up.
I wonder if we're expecting
a natural disaster.
We're having a 99-cent sale!
Oh. What?!
No! No, we're not!
[ gasps ]
[ Eubie screaming ]
Now, if I don't get some help
in here soon...
Oh, no...
it's going to get
very, very unpleasant.
[ bangs ]
I've been patient with you
people so far, but I'm losing
control.
Now, somebody get in here
and get me out of this thing!
I mean it! This minute!
Mr. Rock?
Goode?! Goode?!
[ growls ]
[ gulps ]
[ voices chattering ]
Parents? Parents?
Eyes up here.
Ahem. Thank you.
Thank you all again
for visiting our classroom
tonight.
Now, before you go,
we have a special
Parents' Night treat.
Oh, I know how much each of you
parents love your children.
[ razzing ]
Uh, yes. And so tonight,
on Parents' Night, the children
are going to share with you,
their families, how much
they loveyou.
[ applause ]
Okay-- um...
I love my mom and my dad, um,
and I love my little brother,
Buddy--
even though I think
he gave me his head lice.
[ applause ]
I love my mom,
and I love my dad,
and I love my little sister
Cathy, but most of all,
I love me!
I love me because I'm pretty,
and because I'm smart,
and because--
did I say I was pretty yet?
[ giggles ]
[ applause ]
[ coughs ]
Okay, uh...
what was it, what was it?
Oh, yeah, um...
[ sniffles ]
Um...
[ gulps ]
Thank you, Victor.
[ applause ]
Oh...!
And our last student
to speak tonight will be
Kelly Goode.
[ applause ]
Oh, doesn't she look great?
She is so cute!
Ah-- Kell-Kelly!
Shh.
Ahem. "My Family,
by Kelly Goode."
Ahem.
"My mom is real beautiful,
just like a queen.
But she does so much stuff,
she works like a machine.
She cleans and she washes,
she sews and she bakes.
My mom makes the world's
bestest cookies and cakes.
She's a chauf and a--
she's a chef and a chauffeur,
a teacher, a pal.
My best friend and playmate
and one heck of a gal!"
Oh-hh...
"My dad is a hero.
He works every day.
And he runs in a rat race,
but he still likes to play.
He's smart, and you listen
when mydad has spoken.
And he knows how to fix
all our stuff when it's broken.
My dad is so strong,
and he's real brave, of course.
But mostly, I love him
'cause he's a good horse!
But my brother, he's different
from Mom and from Dad,
'cause he's just a baby,
and sometimes he's bad."
Ah... Buh-Buh!
"To have me a brother,
I'm supposed to feel lucky.
But I think he's noisy
and slimy and yucky."
[ screams ]
"When he breaks all my toys,
I say bad things about him.
But he's my brother Eubie,
and I can't live without him!"
Oh-hh!
[ applause ]
Thank you very much!
Tank oo. Tank oo buss.
[ music playing within ]
Fries.
Can I have some ketchup?
Kelly, that was the nicest
speech I've ever heard.
You were great, Kelly.
Thanks, Dad.
Welcome to Happy Boy.
Now, what do you want?
Hmm. What exactly
is a "Happy Boy Pizza Surprise"?
Ya take a regular pizza
and you make a big Happy Boy
face on it outta tomatoes,
and presto-- you got your
Happy Boy Pizza Surprise.
You want that?
Ooh, that sounds like fun.
We'll take a large one of those
and four milks, please.
Ah! Cheezie, cheezie!
Oh, you're right, Eubie.
Could you put extra cheese
on that Happy Boy
Pizza Surprise?
Sorry, no substitutions.
But we--
So that'll be it? Okay.
May we have
some more napkins?
What am I, your mother?
On the table next to you there.
Help yourself.
You sure made us proud
up there, didn't she, Eubie?
Uh-huh!
[ clapping, giggling ]
Thanks, Eubie.
Here ya go.
Already?
Gee... thanks.
[ babbles ]
Cheezie pee-zah!
Could we have some more
silverware, please?
My shift's over.
Here's your check.
[ giggling ]
Honey, where's Eubie?
Oh, no!
Eubie? Eubie?
[ giggling ]
Eubie? Eubie?
Mustie!
No, no, no, no, Eubie!
Whatever you do,
don't squeeze.
[ squeals ]
Mustie!
[ giggles ]
Thanks for eating
at Happy Boy.
[ laughing ]
Oh, Eubie!
[ crickets chirping ]
Good night, you two.
Good night.
Night-night!
"I bid you good night,
Kelly's parents."
Don't worry, Eubie.
Tomorrow's your birthday,
and I have a funny feeling
we're gonna find Buh-Buh.
Get some sleep now, Eubie.
Big day tomorrow, birthday boy.
[ dog barking ]
[ snoring within ]
[ yawns ]
'Ake up!
Oobie up!
Hah!
[ babbling ]
Mama...?
[ giggling ]
Oh--!
Oh--!
Oh!
Ow-side.
Oobie ow-side.
Oo-ooh?
Wha--?
Huh? Uh-oh!
Wha--? Oh!
[ giggles ]
Ah...
[ giggles ]
'Appy Oobie Day!
[ giggles ]
[ toots ]
[ screams ]
Happy Oobie Day!
Happy birthday, sweetheart.
Yes, but it's
a little early to--
[ tooting ]
Oh!
[ giggling ]
Eubie? Eubie?
Come back here!
[ Eubie giggles ]
[ loud tooting ]
I hope this is another
nightmare.
Let's see.
Ow! Hey!
Nope. It's not.
It's 9:00.
We have exactly three hours.
It's impossible.
Not if we really,
really hurry.
I think we can do it.
"I agree, Kelly's parents!"
[ gurgling ]
[ giggles ]
[ gurgling ]
Come on, Eubie.
We only have two hours
and 36 minutes until your party.
[ giggles ]
[ babbles ]
[ squeals, giggles ]
Eubie? Eubie?
Come on, Eubie,
no kidding around here.
Eubie?
Whee!
Corny? Can you watch him
for a little while longer?
I can watch him,
I just can't catch him!
[ squeals, giggles ]
Ha! I've got you now!
Huh! Oomph!
Honey, look out,
the basement door is open--
Whoa-aa!
[ thumps, crashing ]
I'm okay!
[ crashing ]
[ moans ]
Aw, Eubie...
Kell, how many balloons
do you have there?
I don't know.
I can only count to 20.
Kell, I think
that'll be enough.
Why don't you help me
hang the piñata?
I can't believe you got
a rat piñata!
The guy at the store
swore to me that this
was a bear.
I wanted a bear-- you know,
like Buh-Buh.
Whoa!
The yard looks great.
[ squeals, giggles ]
Happy Oobie Day!
[ giggling ]
I think he likes
the decorations.
Corny, what's with
the rat piñata?
Dad thinks it's a bear.
Honey, it has beady eyes
and a pink tail.
It's a bear. It's a bear.
Now can we focus
on the positive here?
[ giggles ]
Eubie loves it, right, Eubie?
[ babbles ]
See?
[ laughs ]
[ babbles ]
I wonder what he's saying.
I don't know, but for
the first time in two days,
he seems to have forgotten
about... Buh-Buh.
[ rope creaking ]
[ softly ]
Oh, Buh-Buh...!
Oh, Buh-Buh...
[ ticking ]
Presents wrapped,
cakes and cupcakes baking.
Decorations secure.
Plastic bats collected.
Huh?
Plastic bats-- so the kids
can beat the rat.
The bear. Check.
Good thinking.
So, everything's set.
Oh--
What is it, dear?
Where's Eubie?
Foo-prize!
[ giggling ]
Oh! My desserts!
What did you say, Eubie?
Foo-prize!
[ sizzling ]
Kelly, where's
Princess Trolla's head?
"On my royal shoulders,
thank you."
Then whose head is this?
"It is my best friend,
Lifeguard Tiffany!"
Foo-prize!
[ giggling ]
It's Surgeon Cindy, M.D.!
Foo-prize!
Eubie, did you put anything
else in Mommy's desserts,
sweetheart?
Ah--! Uh-huh!
[ giggling ]
Did you put the things
in the cake that's in the oven?
Ah-hah!
Or in one of the seven trays
of cupcakes and pies?
Uh... foo-prize.
Well, the show must go on.
I'll set the snacks out.
Corny, you get into
your birthday costume!
Wait a minute.
You said I'd never
have to do that again.
Please? For Eubie?
Mmm-wah!
Aw, honey...
So is my boy all ready
for his party?
Look, Eubie! Look who it is.
I look like a moron.
Do the dance.
He likes the dance.
All right.
[ sighs ]
Huh. He liked it last year.
They're here!
I'll get it!
[ kids squealing ]
Nice to see you,
Mr. and Mrs. Rock.
Heidi. Lulu.
Hey, whaddya know?
Look at this, Midge--
a talking doormat.
[ chuckles ]
Corny, is that you?
Oh, look, Lulu, Eubie's father
is dressed up like a silly...
alligator... thing.
Okay, maybe if you
make the alligator noises
or something, she would laugh.
Ja.
Sorry, all I do is dance.
You'd make a better coatrack
Goode, if you stood up.
[ grunts ]
[ mimics trumpet fanfare ]
And now, kids,
a little dino-tainment!
[ humming ]
Cha cha-cha, cha-cha!
[ humming ]
Cha-- oof!
[ laughing ]
Oh!
Huh?
[ sniffing ]
[ screams ]
Corny, your tail's on fire!
Aggh! My tail's on fire!
I got you covered, Goode!
Whoa-aa!
I'm coming, Goode!
Whew! It's okay, Mr. Rock,
the fire's...
...out.
[ laughter ]
[ voices overlapping ]
Hokey-donkey!
There you go.
[ voices overlapping ]
[ yowls ]
Ooh! Ooh!
Mmm-hmm.
Oh-hh!
Mmm...?
[ chuckles ]
Mmm...?
It's piñata time!
[ kids chattering ]
This bear thing
is called a "piñata."
It looks like a rat.
It's a bear!
[ silence ]
All right, let's just say
it's a rat.
Either way, it's still a piñata,
and it's still full of all kinds
of goodies.
How do we get
the goodies out?
Well, that's the fun part.
You beat on the rat
with these bats
until it breaks open
and all the goodies
fall out to the ground.
Okay, kids! Ready?
On your marks...
get set...
go!
Here. Watch me.
[ kids giggling ]
Okay, come on!
Swing those bats!
Ow! Hey! Hey!
Ow, ooh, ow, ow!
Not funny anymore.
Not funny!
[ giggling ]
Slow down here.
Somebody's going to
time outin a minute.
I'm not kidding!
Oh, no!
[ grunts ]
Ouch! Woowoo!
Woowoo!
Ouch!
Ooh-- bye-bye, Ouch.
Hey!
Ow! Hey! Ooh!
[ giggling ]
So I look him right
in the eye and I say-- Ouch!
[ laughs ]
I'll take that, dear.
Thank you.
[ laughs ]
[ whacking ]
[ kids grunting ]
Lousy rat!
[ grunting, panting ]
[ thumping ]
[ grunting, panting ]
[ whirring ]
[ man cheers ]
Yes!
No more rats in my house!
[ groans ]
Well, Goode,
at least we tried.
Stupid piñata.
[ grumbling ]
Let it go, Mr. Rock.
Let it go, Let it go.
[ grunting ]
Great party, Corny.
My little Lulu is having
the time of her life.
I'm glad. I felt really bad
about what happened with her
and Eubie at the store
yesterday.
Bad? What-- didn't--
didn't Bernie tell you?
Tell me what?
Bernie! You better have
told him!
Sure, I told him.
You told me to tell him
and I told him.
Told me...?
[ stammers ]
Told me... everything.
He told me the whole story.
Can you believe it?
Gloria, can you believe
that little sale of Eubie's
and Lulu's actually
made the store money?
No!
No!
I mean, no wonderit did.
It's amazing.
How exactly didthat work
again?
We sold so much volume
that it didn't matter
how cheap the stuff was!
And your husband has
another piece of good news
for you, too.
What, honey?
Bernie?!
I told him!
Tell Gloria the news, Corny!
What news, dear?
Uh, you tell her, Mrs. Rock.
I'm still too... overwhelmed.
I made Bernie give your Corny
a long overdue raise!
Yes!
I get excited no matter
how many times I hear it!
I couldn't believe how little
this cheapskate was paying you!
Me either!
[ laughing ]
I hope he was generous
with you, Corny.
Bernie, were you generous?
Uh, yeah. Sure.
Oh, he's going to be--
I mean, wasvery, very generous.
Yep, he jacked my pay up 25%
and made me district manager
for the entire chain!
I-I did not--
mean to wait so long to do it!
Of course I'll still do
all my regular jobs
around the store!
Otherwise, Bernie
would have to work for a living.
And he wouldn't want that!
Come on, Gloria.
I want you to give me the recipe
for those chewy bear cupcakes.
There were chewy bears
in the cupcakes?
Ahem--!
Goode, that was one of the
lowest, sleaziest displays
I have ever witnessed.
I have a whole new respect
for you.
And by the way, thanks for
covering for me with my wife.
You're okay, Goode!
Don't mention it.
But I'm only giving you
a 20% raise.
Really? But Mrs. Rock
said I'd--
All right, all right!
We'll stick with the 25.
[ laughs ]
Ecch.
Time for cake and presents!
Happy birthday, Eubie!
Happy birthday, Eubie!
Okay, Eubie, make a wish
and blow out the candles.
[ mutters ]
...Buh-Buh!
[ laughter ]
Yeah-yeah-yeah!
Huh?
What do you say, Eubie?
Uh--? No Buh-Buh?
Ecch!
That's his word
for "thank you."
[ babbling ]
What do you say?
Uh-- no Buh-Buh!
[ screams ]
He loves it.
[ babbling ]
Huh...?
Turn the handle, Eubie.
See what's inside.
[ music tinkles ]
[ Eubie screams ]
Where Buh-Buh?
Happy birthday, Eubie.
[ babbles ]
That's not what I think
it is...?
I had to go to 20 stores
to find it.
It's the same model
as the original.
He'll never fall for it.
Sure, he will. Watch.
Buh-Buh?!
How--?
I ran it through the spin
cycle a few times, then I
pulled out one of the eyes.
Pretty smart, eh?
Uh, Buh-Buh?
Oh, boy.
I hope I pulled out
the right eye.
No, I think it was
the left eye.
[ whines ]
No Buh-Buh. Buh-Buh no!
Aw-ww...
Sorry, buddy.
[ sobs ]
Sorry, Eubie.
Gloria...?
Betty? Where are you?
Over here.
Betty, are you okay?
I tested every single
dessert.
I feel like I ate a moose.
You found a moose
in the cupcakes?
[ chuckles ]
On the Betty Scale,
you get a 10 for flavor,
a 10 for presentation,
and a five for the car keys
I pulled out of the cherry pie.
Well, at least I tried.
And, you showed improvement.
Maybe next time, huh?
Oh, forget next time.
I've decided to hire you anyway.
You're kidding!
I have to.
You have a gift, Gloria--
a gift that's too profound
to share only with your family.
The way you bake, you should be
out making the whole world fat.
For starters, I want as many
of those birthday cakes
as you can make.
The coffee grounds
were a great touch.
Coffee grounds? Coffee grounds?
Eubie?
Eubie?! Eubie?!
Oh, Buh-Buh, me...
[ gasps ]
Ah!
[ gasps ]
Buh-Buh?
Buh-Buh!
Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh!
[ giggling ]
Eubie?
Eubie?
Eubie?
Eu-bie!
Lulu, dear,
how did you get so messy?
Ah, Woowoo! Woowoo!
What was that?
Woowoo!
[ chuckles ]
Oh, it's just Eubie,
floating away on some balloons.
Floating away on balloons?!
Argh! Bernie!
Bye-bye!
Eubie! Wow,
I hope I get balloons
at my next birthday party!
Mom!
I told you, he was floating!
Eubie was floating!
Of course he was, dearest.
Did he have wings
or a propeller?
Mom, can I have balloons
like Eubie's at my next
birthday party?
Eubie? Eubie!
Eubie!
Gloria, I can't find Eubie.
I've looked everywhere.
Oh, yeah?
Well, did you look up?
Oh, no! My baby!
Eubie?!
All right, honey. Don't worry.
We can spot him from below.
Let's go! Everybody in the car!
Bernie and I'll help.
Heidi!
Get your clogs over here
and watch Lulu!
Oh, ja,of course. Uh-huh!
Hurry, honey.
Come on, Gloria.
All right, guys. This way.
[ sputters ]
[ crashes ]
How about my car?
Great idea! Hop in!
Honey, are you sure
you wanna-- whoa-aa!
Follow that baby!
Seat belt! Seat belt!
Seat belt!

Buh-Buh... Buh-Buh?!
Ah-- Buh-Buh...!
Hey! Hey!
[ gasps ]
[ pops ]
Way-- whoa!
Are we dead yet?
Oh, don't be a wimp, Bernie!
Gloria has this well in hand.
[ truck horn blares ]
[ horn blares ]
Hold on!
There he is!
He's headed to the park!
Buh-Buh?
Buh-Buh!
[ gasps ]
Oh--!
[ giggling ]
Whoa-aa! Buh-Buh! Buh-Buh!
He was going this way!
No, no, a little over that way!
No, wait, no-- this way--
no, wait, wait a minute.
