Babysitters Beware Page #2

---

for my birthday party.

It's gonna be awesome.

I better get home.

My dad's coming home early.

Just me,

him and baseball.

No excuses.

(Door opening)

Hey, buddy.

How was your day?

Great, now!

Let's go!

Hold on, Danny.

Come on, Dad.

You, me and a baseball.

No excuses?

I got some bad news

at work today.

Your mom and I

have to have a dinner meeting.

No excuses.

You shook.

It's work, Danny.

If it's work, how come

you're going to a restaurant?

When you're grown up,

you'll understand.

Now, be a good boy and

get ready for the babysitter.

At least I'll have fun

with Janelle.

About that.

Janelle

had another commitment.

So who's babysitting?

You remember Miss Greene?

DANNY:

She's the worst.

There are worse babysitters,

Danny. Believe me.

She doesn't let me watch TV, use

the internet, play videogames.

I'm sorry, buddy. She's all

we've got on short notice.

But I really appreciate

you being such a good sport.

(Jingling)

Can I watch TV?

Just the mention of television

misaligns my chakras.

Videogame?

Too violent.

Internet?

Predators.

Listen to my mom's iPod?

Ruins your ears.

Radio?

No.

Why?

Electronic sounds

frazzle my nerves.

I could sing for you.

How about a nice

Apache burial song?

(Singing)

Uh, no thanks.

Oh, all right.

Probably a good idea.

We don't want

to summon the spirits.

We'll just sit here

and enjoy the quiet.

Would you like to do something

that's really fun?

Sure!

Oh, dear.

Well, you can share

my macram project with me.

How's your

prune smoothie, dear?

It's organic.

I need

to go to the bathroom.

Yes, well,

that's the idea, dear.

Don't take too long.

You don't wanna miss out

on your macram project.

Hey, Marco.

What are you doing?

Wii Sports.

It's just like real sports,

but I can actually

hit the ball.

Wait. Aren't you supposed to

be practicing with your dad?

He's out with a client

and I'm stuck with Miss Greene.

No way. How are you able

to video chat?

She makes me read

Watership Down by candlelight.

I said I needed to go

to the bathroom.

Organic prune smoothie?

Yeah.

She won't miss you

for about an hour.

My dad promised,

and he went out anyway.

I'm telling you, the no-sit

list is your only hope.

I don't think

I can be that bad.

Do you wanna be

stuck with babysitters

for the rest

of your life?

Okay, I'm gonna do it.

It's time to be bad.

(Loud rock music playing)

(Static hissing)

(Yelling)

Television! Television!

Hold on a minute.

(Siren Blaring)

(Screaming)

(Loud music playing)

I don't know how

to use you.

Quiet, quiet, quiet!

(Siren blaring)

(Screaming)

(Laughing)

It's just a toy,

it's just a toy.

It's a switch.
