00:00Mush, that cry echoing over the frozen north meant one of two things. A dog team was on the run or there was oatmeal for breakfast. The man who cried Mush for the Canadian mounted police was Constable Dudley Dureyte, for it was his job to serve the post commander breakfast.
00:27Inspector Fenwick sir, I have your Mush here.
00:30Oh good morning Dureyte, set the oatmeal on the desk and watch out you don't trip on that shag rug.
00:36Oatmeal's a little cool this morning isn't it?
00:39Inspector Fenwick had given thirty years of his life to the service, then he quit the gas company and joined the Mounties.
00:45Here Dureyte, you handle roll call today, and oh this time look out for that shag rug.
00:49Shag rug!
01:19Now to review his troops, every last man was covered with ink spots.
01:23Good morning men, I shall now give you your orders for the day after I clean the specks off my glasses.
01:28But sir, you're not wearing specks.
01:30If I'm not, then an epidemic has broken out.
01:33Oh mother of pearl, you're right.
01:35Quick everybody into sick bay.
01:37Within minutes the post hospital was filled to capacity. Unfortunately Dudley had decided to sterilize the thermometers by putting them in boiling water.
01:44What is Nelson's temperature?
01:46182.
01:47A little high isn't it?
01:49He's sick.
01:50Oh yeah.
01:51Dureyte, you and I are the only ones who haven't been hit. You have to reach the trading post at Quebec and bring back a miracle drug.
01:59Quebec was only a block and a half away, but this was summer, and Canadian summers can be mighty cold.
02:04To make it worse, a blinding snow storm blew up from the Rockies and the Bullwinkle.
02:08The only way I'll get through is with a dog team.
02:10It is here that the villain enters our melodrama.
02:13This despicable looking creature is Snidely Whiplash, proprietor of a cut rate dog team store.
02:16So you see sir, if I don't get the miracle drug, the core will perish.
02:19If I got the miracle drug, I could sell it to the core for a fortune.
02:22Amount, you have touched my heart with your tender tale of woe.
02:25I shall equip your sled with two of me scoutiest canines, Frick and Frack.
02:30What type of dogs are they kind sir?
02:33Malamute Chihuahuas.
02:34Can they pull a sled?
02:35Less than who do you think pulls Santa's sled every Christmas?
02:38Dudley wasted no time in heading the trail to Quebec.
02:41On Frick, on Frack!
02:43But the wily Whiplash was determined to see that he never got there.
02:45I'll head him off with the pass.
02:47The pass was the only way of getting through Horace Heights,
02:49a tortuous series of snow covered peaks that defied penetration and Dudley Durite.
02:53I must get through, I must!
02:54Just a moment Mountie.
02:55Out of my way sir, this mail must go through.
02:57What? You'd run over Santa Claus?
02:59Santa dresses in red, you're wearing black.
03:01I mean mourning, Rudolph got it in the antlers.
03:04Bad show. What can I do for you?
03:06I must have your sled and dogs so that I can open Santa Claus' legs.
03:09But without them I'll never find Quebec.
03:11Quebec is just over the horizon.
03:12But what Whiplash pointed to was the brink of an 8,000 foot cliff.
03:15Dudley debated his position but then who could doubt Santa Claus.
03:19Off he went, out he went and down he went.
03:21Now all I have to do is go to the trading post and pick up the miracle drug.
03:25On Frick, on Frack!
03:27Whiplash was in for a severe disappointment
03:29for Dudley now in the shape of a gigantic snowball was avalanching his way down the mountainside.
03:33He made it to the trading post just as Whiplash stepped up to the counter and said.
03:36A bottle of miracle drug.
03:38To go!
03:40To go!
03:42Whiplash had a terrible case of Whiplash and Dudley had the miracle drug.
03:45I'm back sir!
03:47Do right, you've got the drug.
03:49Quick man before the disease hits us, we must take the medicine.
03:52And each downed a quarter of a bottle.
03:54There, now we'll give it to the others.
03:57But just then.
03:59Inspector, the men and I, we just took our Saturday night bath and the spots came off.
04:02They were ink.
