Mr. Bill: Oh I sure am Mr. Hands and say can you take me to the Statue Of Liberty huh?
Mr. Hands: Sure but first let’s take a subway ride to your best friend, Mr. Sluggo’s house. (Places Mr. Bill in the doorway in the train car)

Mr. Hands: (Sings) “Here comes Mr. Bill’s dog.” (Molds Spot into shape)
Mr. Bill: Yay it’s my dog Spot. How are you doing Spot huh? (Sluggo appears) Oh no! That Mr. Sluggo is going to be mean to me!
Mr. Hands: No he just says Spot has to go.
Mr. Bill: Go where huh? (Sees a sign that says “Leash, Gutter up and clean up after your dog. Please” and laughs. Spot is placed on the curb of the street.) Oh sure sure! I’m sure glad you don’t do it on the rug anymore. Ha ha ha ha ha! (A passing car comes along and flattens Spot.) No no wait no wait! No! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Mr. Hands: (Picking Spot up with clamps.) The new law says you have to clean up after your dog.

Mr. Hands: Sure! Let’s ride the escalator. And maybe we’ll pick you up a new pair of shoes. Huh?
Mr. Bill: No but you know I don’t ride the escalator too well Mr. Hands (Mr. Hands holds Mr. Bill and up at the top the escalator seperates Mr. Bill’s feet from him.) No wait no! Ohhhhhhhhhhhh!
Mr. Hands: Now for a visit to the top of the Empire State Building.
Mr. Bill: But you know I’m afraid of heights.
