HE WHISTLES

Sorry, Dad. I didn't see you.

Quite all right, Dennis. Nothing can spoil my mood today.

I've got some good news.

Guess what?!

I've been promoted.

I'm the new Deputy Assistant Supervisor of sticky tape.

That's brilliant, dear.

Yes. Once I've done the sticky tape training course,

it will all be confirmed.

I'm sure you'll do well.

Oh, I hope so. One thing, though -

the new job's in a different part of the company.

In Drainotown.

What?! Drainotown's a dump.

Well, it's certainly too far to commute.

We'll have to move.

-Move?! We can't move. We like it here, don't we, Gnasher?

-Yes.

And in Drainotown, we'll be able to afford a better house.

But there's nothing wrong with this house.

It's as solid as a rock.

That'd be nice. Though, we'd have to sell this one first.

And another thing, what about Curly and Pie-Face?

All my friends are here in Beanotown.

Don't be silly, Dennis.

You can always make new friends. Anyway, dear, well done.

Drainotown, here we come.

Huh! We'll see about that.

Bye, dear. Enjoy your course.

HE WHISTLES

Good news, Colonel. Dennis is moving.

So I see.

It'll certainly make the job of the neighbourhood watch a lot easier.

I'll say. According to my calculations,

we spent 89.6% of our time chasing Dennis.

Indeed, but let's not count our chickens.

Dennis is a Beanotown boy through and through.

I don't think he's going to go quietly.

I'm just off to the shops, Dennis.

-OK, Mum.

-And remember,

the estate agent will be bringing people to look at the house later,

so just stay out of the way, OK?

Curly, alert Pie-Face and get on over here.

It's time for Operation Stay Put.

Yeah, here we are.

It's a nice, quiet neighbourhood, as you can see.

Oh, I hope so. When I meditate, I must have the right vibrations.

Ah, yes. Perfect.

This garden is...speaking to me.

It will be my peaceful sanctuary.

Gnash!

OK, boys. One, two, three four...

LOUD ROCK MUSIC PLAYS

But you did say you wanted...vibrations.

Nice work, boys.

She won't be moving in any time soon.

Garden's not bad. A bit tame for my liking.

OK, hold your noses, everyone.

Here goes.

One of my own patented Extreme Stinkers stink bombs.

THEY COUGH

You see, I like to get out in the fresh air

and get back to nature.

Ugh, what's that?

HE COUGHS

I'm sure it's completely natural.

So Dennis is trying to put people off buying his house, is he?

Time to mobilise the neighbourhood watch welcome committee.

Now, as quickly as you can,

deploy the sticky tape to create the perfect parcel.

You know, I think I'm starting to get the hang of it.

A kennel warden?! She's scary.

Yeah, but she's got one weakness - her pet Chihuahuas.

GNASHER GROWLS

This is it, Mrs Barkington-Wagstaff.

I think you'll find it's deceptively spacious.

Well, it looks nice from the outside,

but is there enough room for my little babies?

THEY YAP

All right, Gnasher, now!

My babies! Leave them alone!

Stop that, you horrible dog.

Down! Down, boy!

Come back!

Nice work, Gnasher.

I've got you, little fellows.

Oh, no!

Not so fast, young chap.

It's Walter and the Colonel. They're going to ruin everything.

-Thank you so much.

-Don't mention it, madam.

It's what the neighbourhood watch is for, isn't it, Colonel?

Of course. We always like to look out for our little doggy friends.

Even monsters like that one?

Oh, don't worry about him, madam. He'll be gone when they move.

Hmm, I see.

Well, with dog-loving neighbours like you,

this might be just the house for us.

Shall we have a look inside?

Don't worry, Den. We'll come and visit you in Drainotown.

That's not even funny, Pie-Face.

No. It's not.

And anyway, I'm not beaten yet. I'll think of something.

I'm just calling your father.

Oh, hello, dear. How's the course going?

Oh, quite well...I think.

Marvellous, so what time will you be back?

About four o'clock. I am looking forward to coming home.

Me too, dear. See you later.

Dad will be back at four. He's looking forward to coming home.

We've got to do something to convince Dad to stay here, Gnasher.

But what?

GNASHER GROWLS

Hang on!

Mum says he's looking forward to coming home.

Maybe if he got a really big welcome back, he wouldn't want to leave.

Yeah.

Yeah, we could sing a song and put a banner up and...

No. Wait. I've got an even better idea.

The kennel warden likes the house, Gnasher!

She's coming to look at it again at four o'clock,

but I'm going to make sure she doesn't buy it!

I've got a foolproof plan.

Ha ha. Just as I thought. Walter's fallen for it.

Red alert, Colonel.

The kennel warden's looking at Dennis's house at four o'clock.

Excellent news, Walter.

Yes, but the trouble is Dennis is planning to put her off.

Don't worry, Walter. He's not the only one with a plan.

We'll make sure she stays and Dennis goes.

Four o'clock. That'll be her.

Right, then. Neighbourhood watch welcome committee, quick march!

Just as I thought, Gnasher.

Walter and the colonel are pulling out all the stops.

Welcome committee, roll out red carpet!

Present cake!

Ooh, it's, uh...you!

Walter, what a lovely cake.

A red carpet too.

Ohh...

Hi, Dad. Welcome home.

Hello, son. How've you been?

You know what, Dennis,

I was already having second thoughts about that job.

And now, to come home to a welcome like this...

-Well, how can we possible live anywhere else?

-Result!

Well, sticky tape's not all it's cracked up to be.

And let's face it, I'm a rubber band man at heart.

You don't mind not moving, do you?

Of course not. If you're happy to stay here, so am I.

No place like home, eh, Dad?

Exactly, son. There's no place like home.
