This is the night
It's a beautiful night
And they call it bella notte
Look at the skies
They have stars in their eyes
On this lovely bella notte
So take the love Of your loved one
You'll need it about this time
To keep from falling like a star
When you make that dizzy climb
For this is the night
And the heavens are right
On this lovely
Bella notte
On this lovely
Bella notte
Silent as the snowflake in the night
Holy is the spirit Of this night
All the world is calm And peaceful
All the world is bright and joyful
Spirit of love
And child of peace
Love unending
That shall not cease
Peace, my children
Of good will
Peace, my children
Peace, best all
It's for you, darling. Merry Christmas.
Oh, Jim dear!
It's the one I was admiring, isn't it? Trimmed with ribbons?
Uh, well, it has a ribbon.
Oh, how sweet!
- You like her, darling? - Oh, I love her.
What a perfectly beautiful little lady.
Come on, Lady. Over here.
That's a girl.
There now. A nice little bed for you.
But, Jim dear, are you sure she'll be warm enough?
Why, of course, darling. She'll be snug as a bug in a-- Uh-oh.
Almost forgot something. There.
Good night, Lady. Now, now.
Don't worry, darling. She'll go right to sleep.
No, no, Lady.
This is where you belong.
Right here.
Ah, look. She's lonesome.
Don't you think maybe just for tonight?
Now, darling, if we're going to show her who's master...
we must be firm from the very beginning.
Lady! Stop that now!
Stop it!
Lady, quiet now! Do ya hear me?
Back to bed. Quick now.
Not one more sound.
- Aw, Jim. - Hmm? What? What?
Oh.
Oh, all right.
But remember, just for tonight.
All right, Lady. All right.
I'm up. I'm up, Lady. I--
Oh, no!
What's wrong, Jim? What is it?
Can't you explain to Lady about Sundays?
Have you noticed, darling, since we've had Lady...
we see less and less of those disturbing headlines?
Yes, I just don't know how we ever got along without her.
Say, she must be about six months old.
We'd better be getting her a license.
Hope it fits.
My, but it does look nice.
So grown up. Won't Jock and Trusty be surprised?
Four steps ahead Then to the left
And right to the place where I marked it
With a bonny, bonny bone that I'll bury for me own
In my bonny, bonny bank in the backyard
- Ah, that's a grand sight! -Jock!
Oh, Jock!
- Hello, Jock. - Oh, oh, I-it's you, lassie.
Notice anything different?
- Eh, uh, y-you've had a bath? - No, not that.
You've had your nails clipped?
Uh-uh. Guess again.
Well, I-I wouldn't a-be a-knowin' then.
Why-o, lassie, a bonny new collar.
- Do you like it? - Aye.
Mmm, it must be very expensive.
- Have you shown it to Trusty yet? - No.
Ah, we'd best go at once.
You know how sensitive he is about these things.
He's dreaming.
Aye. Dreaming of those bonny bygone days when...
he and his grandfather were trackin' criminals through the swamps.
They were?
But that was before--
Before what?
This time you knew the truth, lassie.
It shouldn't have happened to a dog.
But, well...
Trusty has lost his sense of smell.
- No! - Aye.
But we must never let on that we know, lassie.
'T would break his poor heart.
Uh, uh, uh, which way'd he go? Which way did he go?
- Go? - Yeah! Big fella.
'Bout, uh, six foot two.
No, uh, three. Wore a stripped suit. No collar.
Why, Miss Lady!
You have a collar.
Mm-hmm. And a license.
My, my, how time does fly.
Aye. It seems only yesterday she was cuttin' her teeth...
on Jim Dear's slippers.
And now, there she is, a full-grown lady.
Wearin' the greatest honor man can bestow.
The badge of faith and respectability.
That's right, Miss Lady.
A-As my grand pappy, Old Reliable, used to say--
Don't recollect if I've ever mentioned Old Reliable before.
Aye, you have, laddie.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, it's Jim Dear.
Please excuse me.
Hello there, Lady.
Come on. Beat ya home.
Ah, you win again.
Steady now. Steady.
Well, what have we here?
Oh, big girl now, huh? All right.
Oh, ladies first.
You know, darling, with Lady here I'd say life is quite complete.
Yes, dear. I don't imagine anything could ever take her place in our hearts.
What a day!
Well, now to dig up some breakfast.
Cute little rascals.
Coochie, coochie, coochie, coochie, coo.
Now, that breakfast. Let's see. Bernie's?
No. Francois?
Oh, no, no. Nope. Too much starch.
Ah, Tony's! Oh, that's it.
Haven't been there in a week.
A beautiful day to make pizza to taste
And they call it bella notte
Well, buongiorno, Butch!
You wanna your breakfast, eh?
Okay. the boss-a, he's-a save-a some-a nice-a bones-a for you.
Breakfast a-comin' up from-a left field.
Good-a catch!
Whoa, boy. Whoa.
Hey. Psst. Psst.
- Blimey! Look, Peg. It's the Tramp. - Shh.
Hiya, handsome. Come to join the party?
All right, all right. No time for wisecracks. I've gotta get you out.
I'm tellin' ya, the pressure's really hot. Signs all over town.
- Gee, thanks. - You're a bit of all right, chum.
- Okay, okay, get going. - Hey, what's goin' on over there?
Scram! And be careful.
What? You mangy mutt. Hey, let go. Let go of me!
Well, Snob Hill. Ha.
Hi, gals. How's pickin's?
Pretty slim, eh?
Yeah, I'll bet they've got a lid on every trash can.
Uh-oh. And a fence around every tree.
I wonder what the leash and collar set does for excitement.
Lassie! Lassie!
Oh, Miss Lady, ma'am!
Miss Lady!
Ah, good mornin', lassie.
'Tis a bonny, braw, bright day, uh, today.
Why, Miss Lady, is, uh, somethin' wrong?
Aye, tell us, lassie. If somebody's been mistreatin' ya--
Oh, no, Jock. It's something I've done, I guess.
You?
It must be. Jim Dear and Darling...
are acting so--
-Jim Dear and Darling? - Hush, man!
- Now, lassie, get on with the details. - Well.
I first noticed it the other day when Jim Dear came home.
Down, Lady. Down!
Darling? Darling, are you all right?
Of course I am. Why shouldn't I be?
Well, I just can't help worrying. After all...
in your condition, alone here all day, walking that dog.
- "That dog"? - "That dog"?
He's never called me that before.
Well, now, lassie, I wouldn't a-worry my wee head about that.
Remember, they're only humans after all.
That's right, Miss Lady.
Uh, as my grand pappy, Old Reliable, used to say, um--
Don't recollect if I've ever mentioned Old Reliable before.
Aye, you have, laddie, uh, frequently.
Oh, yeah.
But now Darling is--
Well, we've always enjoyed our afternoon romp together.
But yesterday--
No, Lady. No walk today.
No, Lady. Not now.
Lady! Drop that, Lady!
Drop it, I say!
It didn't hurt really.
But Darling has never struck me before.
Now, lassie, do not take it too seriously.
After all, at a time like this--
Why, yes. You see, Miss Lady...
there comes a time in the life of all humans when, uh--
Well, as they put it, uh, the birds and the bees.
Or, well, uh, the stork.
You know? Uh, no?
Well, then, uh--
What he's trying to say, lassie, is...
Darling is expecting a wee bairn.
- Bairn? - He means a baby, Miss Lady.
Oh. What's a baby?
Well, they, they resemble humans.
- But I'd say a mite smaller. - Aye. And they walk on all fours.
And if I remember correctly, they "beller" a lot.
Aye. And they're very expensive.
You'll not be permitted to play with it.
But they're mighty sweet.
And very, very soft.
Just a cute little bundle...
of trouble.
Yeah. They scratch, pinch, pull ears.
Aw, but, shucks, any dog can take that.
It's what they do to your happy home.
Move it over, will ya, friend?
Home wreckers, that's what they are.
Look here, laddie! Who are you to barge in?
The voice of experience, buster.
Why, just wait till junior gets here.
You get the urge for a nice, comfortable scratch and--
"Put that dog out! He'll get fleas all over the baby."
You start barking at some strange mutt.
"Stop that racket! You'll wake the baby."
And then, then they hit you in the room and board department.
Remember those nice, juicy cuts of beef?
Forget 'em.
Leftover baby food.
And that nice, warm bed by the fire?
A leaky doghouse.
- Oh, dear! - Do not listen, lassie.
- No human is that cruel. - Of course not, Miss Lady.
Why, everybody knows a dog's best friend...
is his human.
Oh, come on now, fellas.
Oh, you haven't fallen for that old line now, have ya?
Aye, and we've no need for mongrels and their radical ideas.
- Off with ya, now! Off with ya! Off with ya! - Okay, Sandy.
- The name's Jock. - Okay, Jock.
- Heather Lad O' Glencairn to you! - Okay, okay, okay!
But remember this, pigeon. A human heart...
has only so much room for love and affection.
When a baby moves in...
the dog moves out.
Now, let's see. That'll be about--
Oh, well.
Darling? There isn't any way we can tell...
for sure what it's going to be, is there?
I'm afraid not.
Nobody ever knows for certain.
All we can do is hope.
Darling, are you sure you want watermelon?
Mm-hmm. Oh, and some chop suey, too.
Chop suey?
Oh, all right, darling.
That darling booty.
- And that bonnet! - Isn't it just too adorable!
- Don't you just love showers? - Darling, I've never seen you look more beautiful.
- Isn't she absolutely radiant? - Radiant?
Why, that's just what I told Bill yesterday. "Bill," I said...
Darling looks radiant. Positively radiant."
"Why, in all my days," I said, "I've never seen anyone as radiant as Darling."
- Oh, Jim, you look terrible. -Jim, absolutely horrible.
I never saw you look worse.
Cheer up, Jim. Old Doc Jones has never lost a father yet.
Yes, Aunt Sarah, it's boy! Uh-huh, a boy! And he--
What's that? Eyes?
Oh, what colour are they? Wh--
Oh, gosh! I-I-I forgot to look.
A boy! It's a boy! It's a-- Doctor!
- Doctor, it's a boy. - Yes. Yes, I know.
Uh-huh, a boy. Oh, boy! Oh, boy!
It's a boy! It's a boy! It's a boy!
Hello? Hello, Jim? Are, are you there, Jim?
Central? Central, we've been cut off. Hello.
Hello? Hello? Hello?
What is a baby?
I just can't understand.
It must be something wonderful
It must be something grand
'Cause everybody's smiling
In a kind and wistful way
And they haven't even noticed
That I'm around today
What is a baby, anyway?
Oh, what is a baby
I must find out today
What makes Jim Dear and Darling
Act this way
Oh, my little star sweeper
I'll sweep the stardust
For you
Little soft fluffy sleeper
Here comes a pink cloud
For you
Little wandering angel
Fold up your wings
Close your eyes
And may love be your keeper
There now, little star sweeper, dream on.
Well, that should do it.
There's enough here to take us halfway to China.
Darling? Darling?
We haven't much time.
Jim, I just can't leave him.
- He's still so small and helpless. - He'll be all right.
Now, come on. If he wakes up, we'll never get away.
But, Jim, I feel so guilty deserting him like this.
Oh, nonsense.
Hey! What's the matter with Lady?
Oh, she thinks we're running out on him.
Aw, don't worry, old girl. We'll be back in a few days.
- And Aunt Sarah will be here. - And with you here to help her--
Well, there's the old girl now.
Coming, Aunt Sarah! Coming!
Sorry I'm late, dears. Hope I haven't kept you waiting.
- Here, let me take your things. - Now, now, now, now, no fussing.
I know my way around.
On your way, now. Mustn't miss your train.
Have a good time, and don't worry about a thing.
goodbye, dears. goodbye, goodbye.
goodbye.
Now to see that big nephew of mine.
Coochie, coochie, coochie. Oh, you adorable lit--
Good gracious! What are you doing here? Go on, now. Shoo, shoo! Scat!
Get out of here.
Oh, there, there.
Aunt Sarah won't let that dog frighten you anymore.
No, no, no, no, no.
Rock-a-bye, baby
On the treetop
When the wind blows
We are Siamese if you please
We are Siamese if you don't please

Do you seeing that thing swimming round and round?

I want a muzzle. A good, strong muzzle.
Uh, yes, ma'am. Now, here's our latest.
Combination leash and muzzle. Now, we'll just slip it on like this, and--
No. No, no, no, no. Nice doggy. No, no, don't wiggle.
Uh, steady now. Now, now, now.

Oh, we've gotta get this off.
I think I know the very place.
