00:00Sorry, I haven't got time to talk. I've hardly got time to think. Next.
00:05Come on, mate. Come on, you can do it.
00:09Come on.
00:14I'm going to be the maid of honour at Mummy's wedding and I simply don't know what to wear.
00:19Next.
00:22I have to organise the whole wedding, the venue, the catering, the guests.
00:26Excuse me, Nigel hasn't even asked Diana to marry.
00:29See how busy I am? I have to organise the proposal as well. Next.
00:37Pink! I can't stand pink. It makes me feel sick. Next.
00:41That's 215 wishes in less than an hour.
00:44Genies can get RSI in. I've seen it happen. It's ugly.
00:48Next.
00:51Yes. Cream satin for Mummy. Something a little brighter for me.
00:56Scrumptious.
00:58Oh, Baz, you're such a baby. I'm very busy. I don't have time for this kind of immature behaviour.
01:04I was just mucking around.
01:06Weddings are not the time to be unbearably infantile.
01:09Children should be seen and not heard and sometimes not even seen. I wish you'd just run along.
01:19Please, Master, no more wishes.
01:22I know. I'm exhausted. It's a wonder I'm coping.
01:26I have to organise the wedding. I'm constantly having to think about Mummy's happiness.
01:31All you've been thinking about is how you can look better than Marcia.
01:35You can be so cruel sometimes, Bruce. I wish I had someone who'd look after me for a change.
01:41I wish Conrad was over here. I wish he'd give me something romantic and personal, like a ring.
01:52Hello?
01:54G'day, Pen. It's Conrad.
01:56Oh.
01:57I just thought I'd give you a ring.
02:02Where are you?
02:04Um, I'm down here, out the front.
02:07Oh, what an unexpected surprise. Was there anything else?
02:12No, can't think of anything. Bye.
02:17Oh.
02:20Do you mind? That's very precious to me.
02:23That used to be my favourite dolly when I was little. Her name was Popsy.
02:28Sorry? Did you say something?
02:32Oh, so tired.
02:34Concentrate! I'm not having you sabotage this wedding by being distracted.
02:40I miss Popsy, you know. At least she understands me.
02:44I wish I could hold her like I used to.
02:46Really?
02:47Yes, really.
02:50Wait!
02:54Now you can't hurt me.
02:57Oh, no. Look at me. He's really done it. He's turned me back into a baby.
03:02Any more wishes, master?
03:05Listen, Conrad, Monopoly's a big girl now.
03:08Right.
03:09And she's almost as smart as me. We don't need the mollycoddler.
03:12Whatever happens, we are not leaving here without the open.
03:15Bruce, I wish you could read my mind. I want to be big again.
03:19You know what? You can quite catch that one.
03:21Bruce!
03:22Oh, I suppose we'll just have to wait a year or so till you learn how to talk, hmm?
03:26A year?
03:28It's Aunt Mossy.
03:32Oh, you're so big now.
03:36Mossy, are you blind? I'm tiny.
03:39You'll be one soon, and then we'll have a great...
03:44Oh, what's wrong with me? Why do I feel so tired? Mossy!
03:50Now, my sweetheart, here's your favourite Popsy.
03:54Oh, push off, Popsy.
03:56We brought them all the way from Australia.
03:58All I want to do is look at the sky.
04:00Stop your whingeing. This was all your idea. You're responsible.
04:03Don't start that again.
04:05Look, we have to expand. We have to take our business overseas,
04:08or else we're going to go under.
04:10Shut up.
04:13All right, gather round. Gather round.
04:16All right, you are meteorologists.
04:18Weather is your thing.
04:20Well, on behalf of Otto von Meister International Tours,
04:23welcome to Towns Hall.
04:25We're the capital of the world.
04:27Here, there's more weather than you can paint a sticker.
04:30You'll find six seasons in every day.
04:33So enjoy.
04:35Any questions, just ask Darlene.
04:37Darlene is your ma'am.
04:40Do you think we'll get any cumulus cloud action today?
04:45So you like cumulus clouds?
04:47Oh, yes, they're my favourites.
04:49G'day, darling.
04:51G'day, darling. Hello, love.
04:55Isn't that amazing?
04:57Guess who? It's only me, love.
05:00How are you? You're looking great.
05:02So tell me, what do you think?
05:04We've gone international. We had to expand.
05:06That'll go down the gurgler.
05:08So are you hitched in or what?
05:10Daddy hasn't actually proposed,
05:12but there's been talk, hasn't there, Daddy?
05:14Perhaps you'll care to join us for lunch.
05:16All will be revealed.
05:18I'd love that. I would love it. Thank you, pal.
05:20So tell me, love, you still ticklish?
05:22I have never seen anything like that before in my life.
05:26Yeah, it's interesting, isn't it?
05:28An absolutely perfect nimbus formation.
05:42Bruce, Bruce, pay attention.
05:44Enjoying your second childhood, hmm?
05:46What do you think? Look, I've got the opal...
05:48What'll it do, a big burp, huh?
05:50What?
05:52Or does Pen Pen want to go poo-poos?
05:54Look, Bruce, I've got the opal.
05:56I'm the master, and I...
05:58Bruce, come back here. Bruce!
06:00Ah, coochie-woochie-woochie.
06:02Oh, no.
06:04You little cootsie-wootsie.
06:06Mossa, what are you saying?
06:08Trying to talk.
06:10Or have we got a rumbly-rumbly-tumbly?
06:12Oh, listen to us.
06:14We're both talking gibberish.
06:16Have a wusk.
06:18Fabulous.
06:26All right, Tep, are you ready?
06:36Good shot!
06:38Hello, darling.
06:40Daddy's a fab player and such a good sport, too.
06:43Come on, Baz, shake a leg.
06:45Haven't got all day.
06:49It's all right, I've got it.
06:56Good idea!
06:58I'll use my googly.
07:00Daddy's so happy with all my wedding ideas,
07:02he's letting me organise the whole thing.
07:04You?
07:06We're putting Penny in pink.
07:08Anything but pink.
07:10You'll just love it.
07:12I hate pink.
07:14Who could possibly dress me in pink?
07:17Penny Pumpkin.
07:19Come on.
07:21Doesn't want to wear a hat.
07:23Doesn't want to wear a hat.
07:25But, my lady...
07:27I know what you're thinking, and you're wrong.
07:29Really.
07:31It would never work between Bruce and me.
07:33We're incompatible, aren't we, Penny Pumpkin?
07:35He's...
07:37He's so Australian.
07:41Oh, I like it when they hit it right up in the sky.
07:46I'm just thinking,
07:48Bruce looks very manly on the cricket field.
07:53Well, so does Nigel.
08:05He's out!
08:07Oh, bad luck, Nigel.
08:09How's that?
08:12Oh!
08:14Now, Baz, you're more or less a baby still.
08:16You should know what I'm thinking.
08:18Oh, Conrad.
08:20Hello.
08:22What?
08:24Oh, where did he go?
08:26Oh, anyway.
08:28Now, Baz, put yourself in my place.
08:30Try to imagine...
08:32Oh, look back. Oh, look, Baz, it's Conrad.
08:34Your tummy. Is that it?
08:36I'll go and get it.
08:38Tummy? Oh, thick as a plank.
08:41The opal.
08:43Oh, no, Conrad, how could you?
08:45Oh, Baz!
08:51Oh, I hate being a baby.
08:53I wish they knew what it felt like.
08:55What was that, Penn?
08:57I wish.
08:59I think I know what you mean.
09:05It's great just mucking you around, isn't it, Penny Poodle?
09:07Even if it is infantile.
09:10Oh, no, even the food's pink.
09:12Baz, don't even think about...
09:14Excellent game, Nigel.
09:16You know, for a loser, you're a jolly good sport.
09:18Thank you, Bubbles.
09:20Where was I?
09:22I appreciate your help, Bruce.
09:24A bit lower.
09:26That's right.
09:28There was gunfire to the left of me, mortar fire to the right.
09:30Missiles coming in on top.
09:32The funny thing was,
09:34I was completely calm.
09:36Almost serene.
09:39Good shot!
09:43Oh, yes.
09:45Sorry we're late.
09:47I wasn't sure if it was a BYO or what,
09:49so I brought these anyway, OK?
09:53Looks like you've had a few already, eh?
09:55Please, do sit down.
09:59Oh, what now?
10:01Oh, love, how are you?
10:03Are you all right?
10:05Just keep away from my uncle.
10:08Damn, they're giving us a big kiss.
10:10Stinky suckers.
10:12I make it all worthwhile, don't I?
10:14If we didn't have little chaps,
10:16there wouldn't be any big chaps.
10:18The other day, I was talking to the chaps...
10:20Bubbles, do you mind?
10:26They must have a little pygmy bag
10:28that makes these little tiny lives.
10:30Mist upon my stuff.
10:32Uh...
10:36Diana.
10:38Yes, Nigel.
10:40Darling.
10:42Oh!
10:44Sorry.
10:50Will you marry me?
10:59The suspense is killing me.
11:03Yes, Nigel, I will marry you.
11:05Oh!
11:09There you go. That's right.
11:11Thank you. Thank you.
11:15Good shot. I mean it. Congratulations.
11:18Thank you, Bubbles.
11:20You know, for a loser, you're a jolly good sport.
11:24Marty has it all worked out.
11:26There's going to be a garden ceremony
11:28and a string quartet.
11:30I'm going to be the maid of honour.
11:32Little Penny Poppy's going to be the flower girl, all in pink.
11:35Pink? Anything but pink.
11:38No.
11:40We love kids.
11:42What's the matter?
11:44A little apple too tight for you, is it, eh?
11:46Come here.
11:50It's, um...
11:52Oh, it's mashed rhubarb.
11:54Oh.
11:56Oh.
12:00She can't be serious.
12:03She couldn't marry him.
12:05Could she?
12:07She can't be serious.
12:09She couldn't really make me wear pink.
12:11Could she?
12:22Oh, what...
12:31The weather is fascinating,
12:34but imagine if these walls could talk.
12:37They're history.
12:39Oh, yes, I know what you mean.
12:41Just think of all the rain that's landed on this roof over the years.
12:44What are you lot doing here, then?
12:46Well, just looking around. We thought it was going to rain, so we...
12:48Rain? Today?
12:50Quickly, everyone, outside!
12:52The oats.
12:54Get rid of them. Keep them out.
12:56Come on, darling, let's check out the rain.
13:00Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
13:02Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
13:06Pfft!
13:08Grr!
13:10Urgh!
13:12Grr!
13:14Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
13:20Hello, Bonopoly.
13:22Oh, some people just don't know when to give up, do they?
13:25Hey, give it here, Uncle Otto. He's opal.
13:28Fancy a banana?
13:32Jesus!
13:38You'd better go. I've got to clean Penny's nappy.
13:51Boosh!
13:54Boosh?
13:56Oh.
13:58Scared me out of my skin.
14:00I know what you're thinking.
14:04I do, huh?
14:06You're thinking...
14:08Mossop wants to tell me that Diana and Nigel are eloping today.
14:12But she's been sworn to secrecy, so she can't.
14:16Did I?
14:18You're also thinking you should do something about it.
14:22Tell Diana you love her and talk her out of this silly marriage.
14:26That's what you're thinking, but it's hard to put into words, isn't it?
14:32Yeah.
14:40How do they expect a child to open these?
14:43I won't be long, darling.
14:45There's been too much fuss about this wedding,
14:47so Mummy and Nigel are running away to get married.
14:49You're eloping?
14:51But what about me?
14:54Oh, um...
14:57G'day.
14:58Oh, brilliant. The knight in shining armour.
15:00Is there something wrong, Bruce?
15:02Wrong?
15:05Um, yeah.
15:07Yeah, there is something wrong, isn't there?
15:09I've no idea what you mean.
15:11Yes, what are you talking about?
15:13Sometimes people make difficult choices because other people let them down.
15:17And some people just don't know what's good for them.
15:19Oh, spare us, Bruce.
15:29Marcie's coming with us to be my maid of honour.
15:32I've chosen a lovely white taffeta dress.
15:35Well, I always thought you'd look nice in cream satin with a long train.
15:40Cream satin?
15:43Oh!
15:47Sorry I can't take you with me, darling.
15:49Marcie will look after you.
15:54I shan't be long.
16:04Oh, what now?
16:07Conrad, you too?
16:09Well, we'll see about that.
16:11Come on, hand that opal over to Uncle Conrad.
16:13So, you want the opal, do you?
16:15Come on, hand it.
16:17Well, don't be shy. Come and get it.
16:19Yeah, come on, hand it.
16:23Oh, and it's time for such a beautiful day.
16:26Yeah, wonderful.
16:27Well, let's get this lot on board, shall we?
16:29Come on, we're out of here. Uncle Conrad will know what to do.
16:33What's happening?
16:34Shh, everything's under control.
16:37But, Conrad, I get car sick and air sick as well.
16:41It's just a bit of turbulence. It's all right.
16:44Oh, no. Here it comes. I'm going to be sick.
16:47Oh!
16:50A horror film.
16:56Oh, dear.
16:58Oh, dear.
17:00Oh!
17:03Perhaps you should start with the small ones.
17:05Right you are.
17:08Leave it to the experts, darling.
17:11It's not going to happen, Baz.
17:14I mean, no matter what Diana thinks of me,
17:17she doesn't deserve to be with that low-down worm.
17:20I don't like worms.
17:22Me neither.
17:31Oh!
17:36What are you doing? You want to steal the apple, don't you, baby?
17:39She's got a concealed weapon in there.
17:41What, a brain?
17:43Come here. Come here.
17:45Touche!
17:47Get it out! Get it out! Get it out!
17:51You big wuss.
17:53Baby four, Otto nil.
17:56Oh, yuck!
17:58Oh, yuck!
18:01I'm so glad we're all eloping together.
18:07What is it, darling?
18:09Oh, I thought I heard the baby crying.
18:13Oh, probably just my imagination.
18:16There, there.
18:22What's the matter? What's the matter?
18:25Go to sleep. Go to sleep.
18:28Stop it!
18:30Shut up!
18:32Why can't you just leave me alone?
18:34We'll restrain her.
18:36I'm sick of being a baby.
18:38Stop it.
18:40Here, take this.
18:46I got it! The apple! The apple!
18:51I got it! Look at that!
18:56Oh, no.
18:58You rubbed the vomit, I mean, opal, in your head.
19:01She was crying. She was crying.
19:03Crying her eyes out. It was pathetic.
19:05Do you feel better?
19:07I think she started to vomit because she was cold.
19:09She was cold, so we wrapped her up.
19:11I took this because we were afraid she was chaggled.
19:13It was in her mouth. It was in her mouth.
19:15The taint was hanging out. We thought she was going to die.
19:17I whipped it out. I love her.
19:19I love that kid. I do.
19:21Listen.
19:23Don't you wish this had never happened?
19:25We didn't steal her anything.
19:27She gave us the apple.
19:29She gave us the apple.
19:31She said to me, Uncle Nardo,
19:33I want you to have this.
19:35I didn't know Pam was talking.
19:37Exactly. That's exactly right.
19:39Not in so many words, no.
19:41We are very close.
19:43Our communication is completely telepathetic.
19:45Listen, mate.
19:47I don't care if you're a thief.
19:49I don't care if you're a cat burglar.
19:51I don't even care if you're a bankrupt.
19:53All right? Just listen.
19:55Now, don't you wish this had never happened?
19:57Now, listen, pal. I wish for a lot of things.
19:59I've been stabbed in the thumb.
20:01I've been chucked up on half-blinded in one eye.
20:03And I've fallen face-forward in a whole lot of pooey nappies.
20:05Why?
20:07Because I love that kid.
20:09But right now, I am sick of it.
20:11Ah!
20:17Oh, that was lucky.
20:19Wouldn't you give anything to make things all right again?
20:21What do you mean, Bruce?
20:23Is this another one of your tricks?
20:25No, didn't catch that one, Pam.
20:27Do you wish everything was all right? Blink once for yes.
20:29And now I'm going to regret this.
20:31All right, Bruce. There.
20:35Romance.
20:37Here we come, eh?
20:39Ha-ha-ha!
20:47Daddy, look out!
20:49Ah!
20:51My baby! My baby!
20:53Oh!
20:57Now, I suppose you wish you were four to eight again, hmm?
20:59My baby! My baby!
21:01Oh!
21:03Oh!
21:05Oh!
21:07I wish you wouldn't elope, Mummy.
21:09What?
21:11Okay, then, we won't elope.
21:13What?
21:15But there's no need to be such a baby about it.
21:17Darling? Darling?
21:19We were told we'd see weather, but it never changes.
21:21It's just the same all the time.
21:23Oh, there you are.
21:25Our clients want to know when there's going to be some weather action.
21:29Weather action?
21:31What a pack of losers.
21:33You're a dull old handler.
21:35You promised us we'd see six seasons in one day.
21:39Ha-ha-ha!
21:41Now, look, you will. You will.
21:43This is just that rotten silver lining.
21:45Any minute now, it's going to cut up rough.
21:47Just take my word for it.
21:49I'll tell you what I'll do.
21:51I'll just go and ring the weather bureau
21:53just to confirm what I'm saying, all right?
21:55I'm going to ring them now, okay?
21:57I wish you'd give them something to look at.
21:59Look at that!
22:05It's incredible!
22:11It looks like a cumulonimbus.
22:17Bit too weird for me.
22:19Let's get out of here.
22:21There's another one!
22:23Mummy, about that white taffeta.
22:25Cream satin?
22:27Yes.
22:31Diana, if we're not going to Elope,
22:33we need to make other arrangements.
22:35What about the chapel here on the grounds?
22:37It'd be perfect.
22:39It's like I'm always saying, Baz.
22:41Children need patience.
22:43That's why I'm so good with you.
22:45I understand you.
22:47I care.
22:49It's so frustrating when people treat you like a child.
22:51I know.
22:53It's so frustrating when people
22:55treat you like a baby.
22:57Yes.
22:59They say it's very important to stay in touch
23:01with the child inside.
23:03What do you think, Bruce?
23:05I know. Revenge is so very childish.
23:07It just goes to prove
23:09that I'm still in touch with my inner child.
