Paddington Page #6

Synopsis: A young Peruvian bear with a passion for all things British travels to London in search of a home. Finding himself lost and alone at Paddington Station, he begins to realize that city life is not all he had imagined - until he meets the kind Brown family, who read the label around his neck ('Please look after this bear. Thank you.') and offer him a temporary haven. It looks as though his luck has changed until this rarest of bears catches the eye of a museum taxidermist.

when I spotted something sticky

on the deck of the boat.

I think they were paw prints.

Whatever it was that had made them

had hidden himself away in the lifeboat.

Must have been in there

all the way from Peru.

Seems to have lived

on nothing but marmalade.

Did you say marmalade?

- Hmm.

- What happened to him?

- He sneaked out in the mail van.

- Yes?

- I tracked him to Paddington.

- Good.

But then he disappeared.

I'm sorry. It's just that that creature

means a great deal to me.

Why? Is he endangered?

He is now.

Oof!

Now, I know you all like marmalade,

but this is my sandwich.

You're not using those ear brushes

to clean your mouth, are you, Mr Brown?

Peculiar habit.

Morning!

Awesome.

Jonathan.

Don't even think about it.

34 per cent of pre-breakfast accidents

involve banisters.

- But Paddington...

- I don't care what Paddington...

- It's so annoying, Mum.

- What is, pumpkin?

All my bathroom stuff is ruined.

Well, I've never liked you

using harsh chemicals, darling.

They play havoc on people's skin.

- Morning, Judy.

- Hello.

- Why is Dad so boring and annoying?

- It's for your own good.

Be nice, darlings.

All I was trying to do was wash my face.

Oh.

Better?

Come on, you two,

or you'll be late for school.

Heck of a racket

coming from your way last night, Brown.

Hello, Mr Curry.

I'm sorry if we disturbed you.

Good morning.

- I don't believe I've had the pleasure.

- Mr Curry, this is Paddington.

- He's a bear.

- I can see that.

- You must be a long way from home.

- I'm from Darkest Peru.

- Oh.

- Don't worry, Mr Curry, he's going.

Just as well. Don't want to be kept up

by any of your loud jungle music.

Don't tell anyone at school

about Paddington.

Why not?

Because everyone thinks

we're weird enough without the bear.

Ba, ba, ba, ba

Ba, ba, ba, ba

Ba, ba, ba, ba...

Hello there.

Ooh! Dog!

Where's that bear? Now, watch out.

There are thieves, murderers

and pickpockets on every platform.

So follow us

- and do exactly as you're told.

- Right-o.

Thank you.

Officer.

So, about the authorities.

I've printed off directions.

Oh. Laminated.

- The green arrows are to make...

- Thank you, darling.

I know exactly where I'm going.

- Where's Paddington?

- What?

Oh! Paddington.

Paddington!

Wow, I feel good

I knew that I would now

I feel good

I knew that I would now

So good

So good

I got you

Paddington?

Paddington!

- Over here!

- Coming.

That one's mine, thank you.

I assume he's yours.

Tell you what, Paddington.

It's not far to my friend's

antiques shop. Why don't we walk?

- Mrs Brown. Come in.

- You must be Mr Gruber.

And you must be the young gentleman

whose hat sounds so fascinating.
