The Little Rascals Save the Day

(SINGING) Beautiful dreamer

Wake unto me

Starlight and dew drops Are waiting for thee

Sounds of the rude world Heard in the day

Lulled by the moonlight Have all passed away

Beautiful dreamer

Queen of my song

List while I woo thee

With soft melody

-Gone are the cares of... -(BLOWS)

-(CHOKES) -(STUDENTS REACT)

Alfalfa? Are you okay?

-Yeah, thanks, Darla. -(GIGGLES)

Well, thank you for that lovely performance for Share Day.

But I'm not finished yet.

Yeah, you are.

Allow me to show you how it's really done.

All right, Waldo, but this will be the last song today.

Afterwards, we need to get back to work.

-(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING) -Oh.

Well, she's all you'd ever want

She's the kind they'd like to flaunt

And take to dinner

But she always knows her place

She's got style, she's got grace

She's a winner

She's a lady

Whoa, whoa, whoa

She's a lady

Talkin' about that little lady

And the lady is mine

Well, she's never in the way Always something nice to say

What a blessing

Well, to leave her on her own Knowing she's okay alone

And there's no messing

Psst, psst.

-Huh? What? Hurry, it's the signal. -Come on.

She's a lady

Whoa, whoa, whoa

She's a lady

Talkin' about that little lady

-And the... -(MUSIC STOPS)

-Thank you so much, Waldo. -But...

-Please, take a seat, that was... -Wait, but I'm...

Nope, take a seat. Thank you very much.

-That was, uh... -(KNOCK AT DOOR)

Unique. That was very unique.

Hold your horses, I'm coming.

Oh. Hello.

And what can I do for you two?

Stymie has to come home. Our daddy broke two of his legs.

Two of his legs? Oh, my.

Mary Ann has to come, too. Her mama's havin' a baby.

A baby? Since when?

Since this morning.

She found out about it and now she's having it.

And my mama says Spanky and Alfalfa have to come home right away.

Right away? Why?

It's important business.

Oh. What's the important business?

Beats me. That's what Spanky told me to say.

Right, Spank?

Spanky, Alfalfa, Stymie, Mary Ann, get up here right away.

They're in trouble.

Something important has come up

and you all need to go home right away.

Well, Miss Crabtree, it's been a real great year.

Yeah, have a good summer, Miss Crabtree.

See ya next year.

Don't take any wooden nickels.

Ah.

Beep, beep.

Miss Crabtree, I've got your ice cream cake.

-Oh, yes, bring it right in. -(STUDENTS GASP)

All right, boys and girls, I have a little surprise.

We're not gonna do any more work today.

Instead, we're gonna have an end-of-the-year party

with a great big ice cream cake.

You know, Miss Crabtree, I think our folks can wait a little while.

Yeah! My mom's had babies before. I'm sure she knows what to do.

My daddy isn't goin' anywhere. He can't.

His legs are broke.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

You can't keep your families waiting just for a party.

Now run along now and I will see you next fall.

-No, please. -Run along. See you next fall.

-She had them before. -Oh.

You kids don't know what you're missing.

Who wants cake?

Me!

Oh, man. Did you see that cake?

Not just a cake, an ice cream cake.

Yeah, ice cream and cake.

The two best things in the world all mixed together.

Too many calories, men.

And you all could stand to lose a few pounds anyway.

Mmm.

Man, that cake was good.

You said it, pal.

No time to dwell on the past, men.

Summer vacation has officially begun.

No school, no homework, no getting up early.

-We're free. Come on, time's a-wastin'. -All right!

-(BARKING) Whoo-hoo!

Hi!

Hiya, Pops! -Hi there. Hi.

Yay!

Oh!

-Kids! (SCOFFS) Watch where you're going. Sorry.

-Sorry, Officer Kennedy. -Wait a minute.

Aren't you kids supposed to be in school?

We got time off for good behavior.

That would be a first.

So who are the flowers for? Miss Crabtree?

Yeah!

They were.

When are you finally gonna work up

the nerve to ask her to marry you?

I will, I will. When school's out and the time's right,

I'll be ready.

I got the ring. Finally paid it off.

Ooh! -Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!

Look, don't touch. You understand?

Isn't there supposed to be a diamond on it?

Oh, there it is. It looks real nice when you can see it.

-Well, good luck, Officer Kennedy. -Thank you.

Try not to blow it. Come on, guys.

To the bakery!

Hiya, Grandma.

Oh, hi, kids. Oh, hi!

Hi, Grandma.

Oh, boy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, so, isn't there still one more day left at school?

They never do anything important on the last day.

Except eat ice cream cake.

Okay. I don't suppose I could interest you in cinnamon muffins.

Yeah!

Here we go. Me, Grandma!

I caught it!

Thanks, Grandma. You are the best.

Yeah! Thanks, Grandma!

-(BARKING) -I didn't forget you.

Come on, gang. To the tree house!

See you later, Grandma.

-After you, Petey. -(ALFALFA LAUGHS)

Home, sweet home.

Mmm-hmm.

Petey, do your stuff.

Whoa! No! No, no, no!

Kids.

Are they gone, Miss Crabtree?

Oh, they are indeed, Officer Kennedy.

And now that they are,

I think that we can call each other by our first names,

Ed.

-Of course, June. -(CHUCKLES)

What are those?

Oh. Uh...

They were flowers, till your kids got a hold of them.

Thank you.

It's the thought that counts.

Mmm.

I was thinking, maybe you and I could have lunch

at this very special place that I happen to know of?

A date with my man. Why, I'd love to.

Oh.

(WARMING UP VOICE) Me, me, me, me, me, me, me.

Me, me, me, me, me.

Me.

Ready, gang?

-Yeah! -Ready!

Ready, indeed.

Hi, ladies and gentlemen.

Tonight, we're going to perform an oldie, but a goodie

called I Got You, Babe.

My name is Spanky and we are

the International Silver String Submarine Band.

Huh?

The what?

That's our band name? Since when?

Since I just thought it up a second ago.

Makes us sound important.

-Okay. -I agree.

Okay, I like it.

And a one and a two and a three.

Hello, Mrs. Larson.

Hi.

You're early today. Here you go.

On the house, as usual.

-What is that noise? -That's the kids' band.

Oh...

Well, tell them to keep practicing.

Oh, and you got a certified letter here from the bank.
