Kevin, what happened?

It wasn't me. It was the burglars.

The burglars?

Yeah, and I recognized the one guy, Marv. Did I ever tell you about him? Well, that's another story. But the point is, they were gonna rip off your house!

So you chose instead to trash it?

No, I was trying to protect it!

By trashing it?

Prescott

What in the name of...?

Hey, why didn't you come when I was calling you?

Prescott, were you aware of any burglars here today?

Prescott

Burglars? No, ma'am. All the alarms were on as usual.

Well, maybe they turned them off. They had one of these, you know.

Prescott

I saw no intruders, and except for... beg your pardon, ma'am, the briefest of all bathroom breaks, my eyes were on the monitors at all times. How one child could do so much damage in the time it took me to... Well, it's quite beyond me.

It wasn't me!

Prescott

Well, there was no one else here!

He's lying!?

Prescott

I am not!

Are too!

Prescott

Am not!

Are too!

Prescott

With all due respect, sir, I did see Master Kevin playing with the devices as if the house were a big toy. The only hooligan here today was your son.

Prescott

Can you read? The door. "No Entry."

What, does that mean me?

Prescott

Especially you. This is the control center from which I manage this entire household, as well as my personal quarters. Miss Natalie may have granted you run of her home, but this is my domain and strictly off-limits. Understood? Any more questions? Good.

Prescott

What are you doing here? Tell me.

I, uh, I... Nothing. I swear. I thought all of this was cool. I wanted to take a look at it.

Prescott

You don't go to other people's homes uninvited, and you don't touch their things. Didn't I warn you what would happen if I ever caught you in here again?

Not specifically.

Prescott

Trust me. It won't be pleasant. What do you want?

I thought I heard the boy. Ah! And indeed I did. I don't want him bothering you anymore, so I'll just get him out of your way. Come along, Kevin. He'll be my responsibility from now on.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.

Good night. (Mr. Prescott hits her with a tray and she falls down) Aaaaaahhh!

[gasps]

Mr. Prescott!

Prescott
[to Kevin]

At your service.

Boy, am I glad to see you.

Prescott

Perhaps we should call the police.

Good idea, Mr. Prescott.

Prescott

Just "Prescott" to you.

"Prescott"!

Oh, come on. No, prison's not so bad.

Vera

Oh yeah?

Yeah, on Thursdays, you get Salisbury steak.

Vera

Yeah, I know about prison. That's where I met you.

Calm down. Calm down.

Vera

You calm down!?

[to officer]

Women, eh?

Officer

Yeah.

Vera

Hey, don't touch me!

Peter, what's he done now?!

Well, he saved the day, that's what. You should be thanking him.

Molly?! What in the world is going on?!

Detective

It seems that they were gonna kidnap the prince. Best we can gather, she's the boss.

[shocked]

She's MY maid! I'm HER boss!

Well, looks like you're gonna have to find a new maid.

Prescott

And a new butler, I'm afraid. I resign.

Resign?! But why?!

Prescott

Because as a wise young man once said, "Life's too short."
