[Mr. Peabody and Sherman are inside the mouth of the statue of Anubis, impersonating him to call off the wedding]

Ay:
But Anubis, the sun god Ra has decreed that this girl is to be the boy king's wife!

Mr. Peabody [as Anubis]:
That's so funny. I was talking to the sun god Ra just the other day, and he told me he'd changed his mind. "Old Flip-Flop Ra", we call him here in the Underworld.

Ay:
Really? But it's too late! We've already paid for the catering!

Mr. Peabody:
[as Sherman spews fire out of the statue's mouth] Too bad, you're going to lose your deposit!

Jefferson Smith:
Did you ever have so much to say about something, you just couldn't say it?

Clarissa Saunders:
Try sitting down.

Jefferson Smith:
I did - I got right back up again.

Clarissa Saunders:
Now look. Let's get down to particulars. How big is this thing? Where's it gonna be? How many boys will it accommodate? You've got to have all of that in it, you know.

Jefferson Smith:
Yeah, yeah, and something else, Miss Saunders. The uh, the spirit of it. The idea - the - '[He snaps his fingers] How do ya say it? [He walks to the window in which the lighted Capitol Dome is seen. He points out at the Dome] That's what's got to be in it!

Clarissa Saunders:
What?

Jefferson Smith:
The Capitol Dome.

Clarissa Saunders:
On paper? [She lifts her eyebrows a little]

Jefferson Smith:
I want to make that come to life for every boy in this land. Yes, and all lighted up like that too! You see, you see, boys forget what their country means by just reading 'the land of the free' in history books. And they get to be men - they forget even more. Liberty's too precious a thing to be buried in books, Miss Saunders. Men should hold it up in front of them every single day of their lives and say: 'I'm free to think and to speak. My ancestors couldn't. I can. And my children will.' Boys ought to grow up remembering that.

James Taylor:
What did you mean "count me out"?

Joseph Paine:
You can't pull that steamroller stuff. Your methods won't do here. However it happened, this boy's a Senator. This is Washington, Jim!

James Taylor:
My steamroller methods don't go here? They've done pretty well by you.

Joseph Paine:
This boy is different. He's honest. He thinks the world of me. We can't do this to him!

James Taylor:
Should I just stand around and let that drooling infant wrap that Willet Creek dam appropriation around my neck? Not me. Either he falls in line or I'll break him so open they won't find the pieces.

Joseph Paine:
Jim, I won't stand for it.

James Taylor:
You won't stand for it?

Joseph Paine:
I don't want any part of crucifying this boy.

James Taylor:
Our steamroller methods are getting too hard for your sensitive soul? The Silver Knight is getting too big for us. My methods have been all right for the past twenty years. Since I picked you out of a hole in the wall and blew you up to look like a senator. And now you can't stand it. Maybe you don't have to. You and the boy ranger can go home together.

Joseph Paine:
Jim, you don't have to...

James Taylor:
It's all right. Seems a shame to part company after all these years.

Jefferson Smith:
You sure had the right idea about me, Saunders. You told me to go back home, keep fillin' those kids full of hooey. Yeah. Just a simple guy you said was still wet behind the ears. A lot of junk about American ideals. Yeah, that's certainly a lot of junk, all right...I don't know. This is a whole new world to me. What are you gonna believe in? And a man like Paine, Senator Joseph Paine gets up and swears that I've been robbing kids of nickels and dimes. A man I've admired and worshiped all my life. There are a lot of fancy words here. Some of them are carved in stone, some of them men like Taylor put up there. So suckers like me could read them. Then you find out what those men actually do. I'm getting out of this town so fast. Away from all the words, the monuments, the whole rotten show.

Clarissa Saunders:
I see. When you get home, what are you gonna tell those kids?

Jefferson Smith:
I'll tell 'em the truth. Might as well find it out now as later.

Clarissa Saunders:
I don't think they'll believe you, Jeff. You know, they're liable to look up at you with hurt faces and say, 'Jeff, what did you do? Quit? Didn't you do something about it?'

Jefferson Smith:
Well, what do you expect me to do? An honorary stooge like me against the Taylors and Paines and machines and lies...

Clarissa Saunders:
Your friend Mr. Lincoln had his Taylors and Paines. So did every other man whoever tried to lift his thought up off the ground. Odds against 'em didn't stop those men. They were fools that way. All the good that ever came into this world came from fools with faith like that. You know that Jeff. You can't quit now. Not you! They aren't all Taylors and Paines in Washington. Their kind just throw big shadows, that's all. You didn't just have faith in Paine or any other living man. You had faith in something bigger than that. You had plain, decent, every day, common rightness. And this country could use some of that. Yeah - so could the whole cock-eyed world. A lot of it. Remember the first day you got here? Remember what you said about Mr. Lincoln? You said he was sitting up there waiting for someone to come along. You were right! He was waiting for a man who could see his job and sail into it. That's what he was waiting for. A man who could tear into the Taylors and root 'em out into the open. I think he was waiting for you Jeff. He knows you can do it. So do I.

Jefferson Smith:
What? Do what, Saunders?

Clarissa Saunders:
You just make up your mind you're not gonna quit and I'll tell you what. I've been thinkin' about it all the way back here. It's a forty foot dive into a tub of water, but I think you can do it.

Jefferson Smith:
Clarissa, where can we get a drink?

Clarissa Saunders:
[slapping his knee] Now you're talkin'!

Diz Moore:
[dictating into phone] In protest, the whole Senate body rose and walked out.

Clarissa Saunders:
No! No, not that straight stuff. Now listen, kick it up, get on his side, fight for him! Understand?

Diz Moore:
You love this monkey - don't you?

Clarissa Saunders:
What do you think? Now listen, go to work. Do as I tell you, you do know that, don't you?

Diz Moore:
[into phone] Throw out that last, take this. This is the most titanic battle of modern times. A David without even a slingshot rises to do battle against the mighty Goliath, the Taylor machine, allegedly crooked inside and out. Yeah, and for my money and an extra bonus prize, you can cut out the "allegedly."

Daniel:
[as Pudgy the Parrot] Yipe. On second thought, YIPE! 9-1-1! 9-1-1! Police! Civic Authorities! A.S.P.C.A, A.S.A.P! Murder! Betrayal! Kidnapped! No! Birdnapped!

Daniel:
[as Grunge the Cat] A cup of garlic, a twist of parakeet. Eat your heart out, Julia Child.

Daniel:
[as Pudgy the Parrot] Excuse me, but isn't it customary for the jailbird to get one telephone call?

Daniel:
[as Grunge the Cat] In your case, I think not. Afternoon snacks have very few civil liberties. But I'm not wholly without heart. How about a nice, soothing cigarette?

Daniel:
[as Pudgy the Parrot, pretends to cough and choke and ad libs over the line "Beak Cancer"] I will not do this! I cannot! Oh, what a foul way for a bird to die! I don't want to get beak cancer! No! My lungs are blackened!

[Irritated, Lou rolls his eyes]

Lou:
Here we go again. Cut! Roll it back! What are you doing? [Daniel stops, startled] Daniel, that line is not in the script. Why did you add it?

Daniel:
Well, I thought I should comment on the situation.

Lou:
What situation?

Daniel:
The fact the Pudgy the Parrot has a cigarette shoved into his mouth is morally irresponsible!

Lou:
This is a cartoon, okay? This is not a freaking Oprah Winfrey special!

Daniel:
Lou, millions of kids see this cartoon. It's like sending each one of them a packet of cigarettes and saying, "Light up!"

Lou:
You can't put words in Pudgy's mouth if his mouth isn't moving!

Daniel:
Well, it's a voice over. It's an interior monologue. Maybe even the voice of God. That's even better. [as God] Don't Pudgy! Don't smoke!

Lou:
[sighing] Actors.

Daniel:
What? Well, let's ask the technicians. [at technicians] Do you think it's morally right to promote smoking to the youth of America?

[The three men are observing the recording studio from a control room, each smoking a cigarette. One of them shrugs.]

Daniel:
[Whistles] They're biased. That's a mistrial.

Lou:
Daniel, listen to me. This session is costing the studio thousands of dollars. Now if you want a paycheck, you stick to the script. If you want to play Gandhi, then do it on somebody else's time!

[Daniel removes recording headphones]

Daniel:
[as Gandhi] Then I got to do what I got to do.

[Daniel proceeds to exit recording studio]

Lou:
That's very funny. Where the hell are you going? Hey, listen, buddy. I'll tell you something. If you leave, you're not coming back in. I'm not taking any crap from you, pal.

Daniel:
Well, in the words of Porky Pig... [as Porky Pig] Pi-pi-pi-pi pi-pi-pi-pi pi- piss off, Lou!

Judge:
Mr. and Mrs. Hillard, although these custody proceedings have always tended to favor the mother, we also realize, perhaps, now, more than ever, that it is not in a child's best interest to deprive him or her of an obviously loving father. However, since at the present time, Mr. Hillard has no place to live and no employment, it is the court's ruling to award sole custody to Mrs. Hillard.

Miranda's Lawyer:
Congratulations.

Daniel:
No...

Judge:
Mr. Hillard will have visitation rights every Saturday.

Daniel:
[whispering to his lawyer] Can't you do something?

Daniel's Lawyer:
He's already made his decision.

Daniel:
Isn't it traditional to say, like, "I object" or something? [to the judge] Your Honor, please. I mean, every Saturday, that's one day a week. That's not enough. I have to be with my children. It's not a question, really. I mean, I have to be with them, sir, please. I know it seems like a lot, but for me, it's not enough, really. I haven't been away from them for more than one day since the day they were born.

Judge:
Mr. Hillard, I would like to add that this ruling is only temporary.

Daniel:
Oh, good.

Judge:
I will assign a court liaison to oversee your case, and there will be a continuance of these proceedings in 90 days. I'm giving you three months, Mr. Hillard.

Daniel:
Thank you.

Judge:
Three months in which to get a job, keep it, and create a suitable home. If this proves to be a possibility for you, I will consider a joint-custody arrangement when we reconvene. We're adjourned. [bangs gavel]

Tony:
[gruff] Well, not exactly.

Daniel:
What do I do?

Tony:
Well, you take these cans right here. You box them, then you ship them. Then you take those ones over there. You box them, you ship them. Then more of them will come in. You box those, you ship those. Any questions?

Daniel:
After you box them...

Tony:
You ship them. Lots of luck, smart-ass. [leaves the room]

[Daniel calls Miranda as several undesirable applicants for the housekeeper position]

Miranda:
[answers as she is driving] Hello? Are you calling in response to the ad?

Daniel:
[in a monotone feminine voice] Uh-huh.

Miranda:
Tell me, who was your previous employer?

Daniel:
I was in a band. Severe Tire Damage.

Miranda:
In a band?

Daniel:
I just want to know one thing: are your kids well-behaved, or do they need like a few light slams every now and then?

Miranda:
Um... I'll have to get back to you on that.

Daniel:
Wow! [Miranda hangs up]

[Cut to Daniel calling Miranda while taking a bath]

Daniel:
[in a German accent] Ja, my name is Ilsa Himmelman, and I want to know how many children do you have?

Miranda:
I have two girls and a boy.

Daniel:
Oh, a boy. I don't work with the males because I used to be one.

Miranda:
[hangs up in shock] Yikes!

[Cut to Daniel calling Miranda later that night]

Miranda:
Hello?

Daniel:
[screams; in a Southern accent] Layla, get back in your cell! Don't make me get the hose! [in a soft voice] Hello? [Miranda hangs up in shock again. Daniel calls her again in a Spanish accent] I. Am. Job.

Miranda:
Do you speak English?

Daniel:
I. Am. Job.

Miranda:
I'm sorry, the position has been filled. [hangs up] Oh, what a nightmare!

Daniel:
[as he dials Miranda's number one last time] Let's go in for the kill.

Miranda:
[answers the phone] Hello?

Daniel:
[in a feminine English accent] Hello. I'm calling in regards to the ad I read in the paper.

Miranda:
Yes. Well, would you tell me a little bit about yourself?

Daniel:
Oh, certainly dear. For the past 15 years, I have worked for the Smythe family of Elbourne, England. That's Smythe, not Smith, dear. And for them, I did house-cleaning, cooking, and took care of their four glorious children. Oh, I grew quite attached to them after 15 years, but they grew up, as children tend to do. Oh, but listen to me, I am going on when you should be telling me about your little ones.

Miranda:
Well, I have two girls...

Daniel:
Oh, two precious gems. No doubt, the jewel of your eye.

Miranda:
...and one boy.

Daniel:
Oh, the little prince. How wonderful.

Miranda:
I must tell you, there would be a little light cooking required.

Daniel:
Oh, I don't mind that dear. I'd love some heavy cooking, but I do have one rule: They'll only eat good, nutritious food with me. And if there's any dispute about that, it's either good, wholesome food or empty tummies. That's my rule. I hope it's not too harsh for you, dear.

Miranda:
No. Um, would you mind coming on an interview, say, Monday night at 7:30?

Daniel:
Oh, I'd love to, dear.

Miranda:
Wonderful. I'm at 2640 Steiner Street.

Daniel:
Steiner. Oh, how lovely.

Miranda:
Could you tell me your name?

Daniel:
My name? I thought I gave it to you, dear.

Miranda:
No.

Daniel:
Oh! [sees a newspaper headline that reads, "Police Doubt Fire Was Accidental"] Doubtfire.

Miranda:
I beg your pardon?

Daniel:
Doubtfire, dear. Mrs Doubtfire.

Miranda:
Well, I look forward to meeting you.

Oh, lovely, dear. Me, too.

Miranda:
Bye-bye.

Chris:
Who did this?

Daniel:
Uncle Frank and Aunt Jack.

Lydia [coming around]:

No. No, it's okay, I get it. I just...you know, don't wanna hug you or anything. Not just yet.

Chris:
Yeah.

Well, now that you know, you can't tell Mom, okay? Because if she finds out, I'll only be able to see you through plate glass. Okay? And we can't tell Nattie, because she'll blow my cover. So you have to promise me, it's just us. All right? You promise?

Lundy:
The one in the middle, I think.

Daniel:
Nah, you're wrong. They're all extinct. [Lundy chuckles] I can't believe they're still subjecting kids to this. This is insane. They should have a little disclaimer that says, "Do not operate heavy machinery while watching this show." It's incredible. This guy used to put me to sleep when I was a kid. That's amazing. He has the warmth of a snow pea. He makes Mr. Rogers look like Mick Jagger. It's insane. [scoffs] What kind of idiot kept this guy on the air for 25 years?

Judge:
Miss Robeson, do you have any closing remarks?

Miranda's Lawyer:
Nothing further, Your Honor.

Judge:
Well, Mr. Hillard, since you've determined to act as your own attorney, you are entitled to make a closing statement at this time.

Daniel:
Your Honor, in the past two months, I have secured a residence, I've refurbished that residence and made it an environment fit for children. Those are your words. I'm also holding down a job as a shipping clerk. So I believe I met your requirements ahead of schedule. In regards to my behavior, I can only plead insanity, because ever since my children were born, the moment I looked at them, I was crazy about them. And once I held them, I was hooked. I'm addicted to my children, sir. I love them with all my heart, and the idea of someone telling me I can't be with them, I can't see them every day... it's like someone saying I can't have air. I can't live without air, and I can't live without them. Listen, I would do anything. I just want to be with them. You know I need that, sir. We have a history. And I just— they mean everything to me, and they need me as much as I need them. So please, don't take my kids away from me. Thank you.

Judge:
Mr. Hillard, you've been able to fool a lot of people into believing you're a 60-year-old woman. No easy task. And your little speech seemed to be very heartfelt and genuine. But, I believe it to be a terrific performance by a very gifted actor. Nothing more.

Daniel:
No, it's not that.

Judge:
The reality, Mr. Hillard, is that your lifestyle over the past months has been very unorthodox. And I refuse to further subject three innocent children to your peculiar and potentially harmful behavior. It is this court's decision to award full custody to Mrs. Hillard.

Daniel:
Oh, God, no, sir, please...

Judge:
You will have supervised visitation rights every Saturday.

Daniel:
Supervised, sir?

Judge:
Yes. A court liaison will accompany you when you spend time with the children. I am suggesting a period of psychological testing and perhaps treatment for you, Mr. Hillard. We will reexamine this case one year from now. Thank you. Court is adjourned. [bangs gavel]

Forgive me, Your Majesty, but I believe my troops can stop him.
