Post by bunniefuu »

[Music]

okay this water test perfectly our new

pool is now open for business

hey hey hey not so fast you can't go in

a pool right after you eat you know that

makes sense how long do I have to wait

judging by what you had for lunch I'd

say two days come on the rule is you

have to wait an hour you still have a

few minutes to go and horsing around

there's a pool I don't want anybody

slipping and getting hurt and third and

most important never go swimming alone

always have a buddy with you in case of

emergency Nicky right buddy wrong robot

Ricky you can't go in the pool it's okay

I haven't eaten in three weeks

thank you you can't swim so no pool well

sure but she get waterlogged

who knows what that'd do to her circuits

maybe she'd rust oh you don't think so

honey why not you won't rest come on

John I built the pool for everybody why

don't you go ahead because I spent $95

for this new swimsuit for that much

money I don't want to get it wet

we get back from the market and first of

all when I blow up this pools life

[Music]

[Music]

I think the safest thing for you to do

is stay away from the pool you're right

I'll be here in the morning I have to

pay Vicky back for saving me

hello you really don't have to dole like

I agree with her I think she's right she

should pay Vicky back right daddy

hi old Vicky my life I live only to

serve you Vicky I'll never leave your

side I'll be with you morning noon and

night

polish your nails brush your teeth do

you first Vicky come back in 20 years

mom you gotta do something about Harriet

she's got a little too far helping Vicki

with her chores what'd she do now she

vacuumed my room while I was in bed

what's wrong with that she sucked all

the buttons off my pajamas Jamie look

I'm sure Harry will forget all about

this debt she owes to Vicki by tomorrow

she also helped Vicki do our laundry

well good

she lost your favorite golf shirt tell

me she didn't shrink it she didn't

shrink it that's a relief Oh swell Jimmy

debt to Vicky in full oh come on Vicky

to give Harriet a permanent on her head

[Music]

drift

our swimsuits grab some munchies and hit

that dull Brandon we we'd like to talk

to you about Harriet oh my little angel

the apple of my eye

we'd like you to keep her home do I have

to necessary for Harry to wait on Vicki

hands and foot

sometimes responsibility for a little

child you know I never looked at it that

way you're right I've been I've been

thoughtless and inconsiderate no

argument here it's too much

responsibility for Harriet it's a

parent's job and I will do it from now

command I will cook clean I'll bring you

your pipe and slippers like a faithful

dog honey who what I think you better

spread some newspapers on the floor

gonna hold this together and you screw

it in screw it in

[Music]

that's right that should hold it head

tip Brandon is impossible would you

please tell him that he doesn't have to

repay us for Vicky pulling Harriet out

of the pool though every time I turn

around he's in my hair like dandruff

what's he done now he defrosted the

refrigerator what's wrong with that

he threw a bucket of boiling water in

the freezer again Oh terrific

oh and that's not the worst part you

mean it gets worse

couldn't stop him

which slacks the ones with the outline

of the iron burned on the front

piece of my mind Oh any good he won't

leave until he feels that he's even the

score

even if Brandon saved my life got an

idea I'm finished in the house master

Brandon as a matter of fact there is uh

I was gonna go swimming here and we have

a rule around here that nobody goes

swimming alone you have to have a buddy

to watch you watch you oh I can do that

with my eyes closed

you also can't go swimming until an hour

after you've eaten and you just ate you

could get a cramp and drowned yo yo come

on Vicky that rule is just for kids not

for adults I'll be fine just fine oh

that's nice oh the water is just the

right temperature Oh Brandon you should

come in here I mean this would really

suit your varicose veins Oh beat it

understand this her heartbeat is most

peculiar almost almost like a clock tick

tock well that's my sister takes a

lickin and keeps on tickin I'll take her

blood pressure yeah of course I can I'm

a doctor because of religious reasons Oh

what religion is that it's a real new

one their first commandment is thou

shalt not take blood pressure I've never

seen anything like this our pulse is

strong a skin tone is good our

temperature is normal but she must seems

to be in some kind of shock

[Music]

she's just a little rusty

I mean waterlogged fusable girls x-ray

oh good I'm very anxious to see what's

going on inside of her

that's her insides that's not the inside

of a little girl it's the inside of a

computer they sure don't make kids like

they used to

hi there doctor we're Vicki's parents is

that her x-ray well yes if you can if

you can believe it I think somebody's

playing a little joke on you

those obviously aren't little girls

inside last week one of the interns

replaced all the blood samples in my lab

with raspberry syrup listen why don't

you go chase down the real x-ray and

I'll keep an eye on Vicki you will you

okay maybe I can get started up again

what I'll take you to our party

what are you gonna do with her yeah

stand her up in the middle of the yard

and user as a fountain

listen

[Applause]

just as I thought

their circuits are flooded with water

I'm gonna have to draw her out oh good

you got here I was Vicki

[Laughter]

you know honey maybe maybe if I can get

Vicky to heat herself internally she can

evaporate the water okay stand back

[Music]

okay that should do it let's get her out

of here doctor she seems fine now she

does Vicki say hello to the nice doctor

just an amazing recovery yeah it

certainly is a doctor I don't know how

I I am going back to dermatology a

pimple is simple

some reason you fainted tell you what I

thought I saw well it doesn't matter

brand I'm the important thing is is that

Vicki's okay thank you

about even in the old life-saving

Department huh I'm not quite what do you
