Crossfade to Valerie, Josef, Mr. and Mrs. Dumpling
MR. DUMPLING
And that's just what happened.
JOSEF
That's an awful peculiar story you have there, sir.
VALERIE
But then what happened, Daddy Dumpling?
JOSEF
Yes, what happened next?
MRS. DUMPLING
Give him a chance, dears.
VALERIE
Oh, do tell us, Daddy. Tell us, Tell us, Tell us!
MRS. DUMPLING
Valerie!
VALERIE
(Going to Mr. Dumpling and smothering him with kisses.)
You will tell us, Daddy. Won't you? Won't you? You will tell us.
MR. DUMPLING
I will tell you what happened.
VALERIE
(On the floor in glee)
Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Oh, thank YOU, Daddy Dumpling.
JOSEF
Thank you, sir.
MR. DUMPLING
Yes and then Mrs. Dumpling ate all the orange marmalade and made the children cry.
MRS. DUMPLING
Don't tell them that, Daddy.
VALERIE
Did you, Mummy?
MR. DUMPLING
Yes. She ate all the orange marmalade, because she was going on a long trip to a land where orange marmalade was almost completely unknown.
VALERIE
Where was she going? Where, Where, Where?
MR. DUMPLING
She was going to the Land of Smile and Nod where everyone is kind and friendly.
JOSEF
The Land of Smile and Nod
MR. DUMPLING
Where everyone is kind and friendly
JOSEF
That sounds good.
MR. DUMPLING
It was, Josef.
MRS. DUMPLING
Except for the marmalade, Daddy.
MR. DUMPLING
Except for the marmalade. For that they had none.
VALERIE
Oh, the poor, poor Smilers and Nodders
MR. DUMPLING
Only one small jar...
MRS. DUMPLING
Tiny
And that's just what happened.
