in this house.

A man had come as a last resort.

Because...

no one else would go near the place.

Gah!

I hear you've been expecting me.

- You are the...

- That's right.

I am...

the babysitter.

Yes, sir, yes, thank goodness

you've come.

My boy.

I don't know what's gotten into him.

I've-a never seen anything like it.

Trust me, buddy.

I've got three little ogres at home.

This will be a piece of cake.

Father!

Father!

O... kay then.

Look, I'm-a tell you,

I tried every trick in the book.

- You see?

- "Once Upon a Time-Out"?

Oh, come on, now.

You're gonna listen to a goose?

Please, you...

you don't understand.

It's like he's-a two different people.

What your kid needs is discipline,

not a bunch of

psychological mumble-jumble.

You just gotta walk in there,

look him in the eye,

and show him who's...

Please tell me he's an only child.

Bobba gone fishpeas.

Ba, ba, boo.

Um... Hello.

Whoo!

Well, here's your problem.

His head's not screwed on right.

When you wish upon a star,

you get lots of stuff.

Well, I wish for a nice, quiet evening

where you go to sleep

and I raid the icebox.

Okay.

- Ow! Ow! Oh!

- Hey... Ah!

Oh! Ah!

Mm.

See? That was easy.

It's like I always say.

When it comes to good parenting,

you have to be fair but firm.

You just show him

that you mean business,

and he's out of bed again, isn't he?

You never have this problem

with sock puppets.

Aah! Oh!

All right. What's this all about?

Voices.

- Voices?

- Uh-huh!

In here!

Telling me what to do!

You have voices inside your head.

Sometimes.

And what kind of things

do they tell you to do?

Oh!

Oh...

The early bird catches the worm!

What's gotten into this kid?

Hey... Ow! Hey!

Maybe you sing him a little song.

Come here, y... I...

Do I look like the kind of

guy that knows a lullaby?

Sing!

Lullaby and good night

Close your big, creepy eyes

If you sleep, away I'll creep

And get out of here alive

Oh... You know,

once you get past all the

splinters and rope burns,

he's actually kinda cute.

Now where did he go?

A bird in the hand is worth

two in the bush!

Now, there's something

you don't see every day.

Aah! Aah!

Get him off! Get him off!

Aah!

Ooh...

Mm...

Come back here, you!

I regret nothing!

Ow! Ooh!

Ah! Oh!

Ah! Ooh! Ah! Ah!

Ah... Ooh... Ahh...

Eew!

I'm too young to have termites!

I'm no termite, Pinocchio.

I'm a cricket.

You were the voice in

my head this whole time?

That's right.

I'm the one who was putting

all those thoughts in your noggin.

I'm your conscience,

and as long as you let me,

I'll always be in...

The End.

That wasn't me!

I never had any bugs in my head.

Ha ha. Ask anyone!

Okay, then.
