(A thought bubble showing Little Miss Chatterbox hugging a comedically big spoon appears above Little Miss Chatterbox's head)
Miss Chatterbox: Mr. Rude just went inside!
(The thought bubble disappears)
Miss Chatterbox: He's probably heating up some baked beans for dinner!

(Little Miss Giggles falls to the ground in hysterics)

(Little Miss Bossy hangs up and the split screen goes away. Mr. Strong drives up and honks a "shave and a haircut" tune on his car horn)
Mr. Strong: Oh, hey! Miss Giggles said you needed a tow truck?
Miss Bossy: Yes! Get Mr. Rude's car out of my way, so I can park in my driveway!
Mr. Strong: Uh, right! I don't think Mr. Rude would be very happy about that. I'd better check with him first.
Miss Bossy: Hey! I'm the boss around here and I'm telling you to move the car!
Mr. Strong: Well, since you put it that way.
(Mr. Strong gets out of his tow truck and lifts up Mr. Rude's car)

Mr. Rude: You cannot have my car towed away!
Miss Bossy: I can...when it's blocking my driveway!
(Little Miss Chatterbox returns and walks over to Mr. Rude and Little Miss Bossy)

(The screen zooms out to show Mr. Rude, Little Miss Chatterbox, Mr. Strong, and Little Miss Bossy)

Miss Bossy: Yep! Today must be my lucky day!
Mr. Rude: I am clearly in the company of imbeciles!
(Little Miss Chatterbox and Mr. Strong walk away and Little Miss Bossy heads home)
Mr. Rude: (sighs)
(Mr. Rude facepalms himself. The screen fades to black and transitions to the next bumper. Mr. Fussy is mowing his lawn with his push mower. As Mr. Fussy mows his lawn, he stops and notices something unbelievable! Mr. Messy is also mowing his lawn but he's using Mr. Scatterbrain as his lawn mower! Mr. Messy and Mr. Scatterbrain walk passed Mr. Fussy who stands there not sure which is more befuddling. Mr. Messy using Mr. Scatterbrain as his lawn mower or Mr. Messy simply mowing his lawn. The scene transitions to Little Miss Scary walking to Mr. Nervous' house with a present. She rings the doorbell and Mr. Nervous answers the door)
Narrator: And so, the Mr. Men and Little Misses...

(Mr. Nervous runs back inside his house and slams the door shut. The camera moves to the right to show Mr. Happy waving goodbye to Little Miss Sunshine. Little Miss Sunshine, who was given a piece of Mr. Happy's cake to enjoy later, heads home)
