The title card.
Angelica looks through the mail slot of the front door of Tommy's house...
...and Tommy looks back at her
Stu picks up Tommy
Didi opens the door
"Hi, come on in."
"Oh, can't stay, Deed!"
"We just have to drop off Angelica and run!"
Drew kisses Angelica goodbye
"Bye, sweetie."
"Bye, Daddy."
"Don't worry, Drew,"
"We'll take good care of Angelica while you're away on your rafting trip."
"I still don't get why they call it 'Power Rafting'."
"Well, beats me, but Charlotte says it's great for networking!"
"Now, are you sure you're gonna be all right, princess?"
"Yes, Daddy, I'll be fine!"
"You know we'll be gone a whole week!"
"The sooner you leave,"
"The sooner you can come back with lots of presents for me!"
"What? They called our offer a joke? All right, then,"
"Hey, Grandpa, what do you say me and you get out of here and go do something?"
"You don't know what you're missin'!"
"Actually, I'm kinda tired. I think I'm gonna take a nap."
"I always take a nap after I watch Captain Blasto. I just get tired and..."
"...fall asleep."
"Tommy, Tommy, speak to me, Tommy!"
Both Tommy and Lou have fallen asleep while Angelica watches Fishing With Stan and Orville.
Angelica watches a soap opera, which gives her the idea that a broken leg will give her all the attention she needs
"I just can't get this hippo-copter to fly!"
"Stu, if hippos were meant to fly, they wouldn't weigh 3,000 pounds."
"Stu, if hippos were meant to fly, they wouldn't weigh 3,000 pounds."
"Ow! Ow!"
"Angelica, what happened?"
"Oh, my leg! I think it's broke!"
Stu and Didi waiting; worried about Angelica after she "broke" her leg
"Hi, I'm Bob. I'll be your X-ray technician!"
"What are you gonna do?"
"It's kinda strange at first, but..."
"...after a while, you get to like it!"
"Peaches, Peaches..."
"It appears that Angelica has sustained a massive fracture of the left fibula."
The first view of Tommy's house in this episode
"Dr. Dooser said we should keep you in bed and do all we can to help keep you comfortable while your leg heals."
"I rigged up this call buzzer for you, sweetheart!"
"Now, if there's anything you need,..."
"...all you have to do is push this button!"
Stu pushes the buzzer and the buzzer buzzes
"We can hear the buzzer anywhere in the house, and we'll come right away!"
"Are you in any pain, dear?"
"A little."
"What a trooper!"
Tommy staring at Angelica
"What are you lookin' at, peanut head?"
"Is your leg really broke, Angelica?"
"No!"
"Then why'd they put it in a cast?"
"How do I know? Go figure grown ups!..."
"...Alls I know is, I got this!"
"What does that do?"
"Watch!"
Angelica pressing her buzzer for the first time
"Yes, Angelica?"
"Aunt Didi, you can take the baby away now...."
"...I'm tired of playing with it."
"All right, sweetheart...."
"...Tommy,..."
"...it's past your bedtime anyway."
Tommy is carried away into his bedroom, never to be seen in the episode again
"Heh heh heh!..."
"...This is gonna be great!"
Front view of Tommy's house in the morning
Angelica presses her buzzer as birds fly over Tommy's house
"Morning, Aunt Didi!..."
..."Could you please get me a cold drink?"
"Of course, dear!..."
"...I'll be right back!"
Angelica waiting for Didi to get her her cold drink
Didi returns with a glass filled with soda and ice
"There you are, Angelica!"
"Thank you, Aunt Didi!"
Angelica takes a sip of her cold drink...
...and immediately uses her buzzer afterwards
"Aunt Didi,..."
"...I wanted a cold drink!"
"Uh,..."
"...that is a cold drink!"
"It isn't really cold!"
Didi sighing before returning to Angelica
Didi about to take the glass away from Angelica
Didi starting to walk away from Angelica
"Thank you, Aunt Didi."
Angelica using her buzzer again, this time for Stu
Stu running up the stairs...
...straight into the bedroom
"Yes, Angelica?"
"Uncle Stu,..."
"...I want to watch TV!"
"Ah, but Angelica, the only television in the house is the big 27-inch console downstairs!"
"I know!"
Angelica smiling at Stu after she said that
Stu pushing the TV up the stairs
Didi taking the wet laundry out of the washing machine...
...until she hears Angelica's buzzer
"Aunt Didi,..."
"...would you fluff my pillows?"
Stu working on his Hippo-copter...
...until he hears the buzzer, causing him to drop his Hippo-copter, and it breaks to pieces
"Uncle Stu,..."
"...would you open my window?..."
"...I'd do it myself, but,..."
"...my leg's broke."
Stu frowning angrily at Angelica
Stu walking up to the window for the first time...
...and lifts it

"What is it, Angelica?"
"I need a tissue!"
Stu at the door after hearing the buzzer
"It's a little cold in here!..."
"...Could you shut my window?"
Angelica smiling after saying that
Stu walking up to the opened window...
...and closes it shut
Angelica using the buzzer once again for Stu
"What is it, Angelica?"
"Mmm... I can't remember."
Stu frowning at Angelica after she couldn't remember what she requested,...
...starts to turn away,...
...and walks out of the bedroom
Angelica toys around with her buzzer...
...and decides to use the buzzer again to get Stu back into the bedroom
Stu taking a breather after running up the stairs 4 times in order to change Angelica's window positioning
"I remember now, Uncle Stu!..."
"...It's getting kinda stuffy in here again. Could you open my window?"
Stu gritting angrily at Angelica after she remembers what she requested...
...and starts walking towards the window
Stu walking towards the window again for the final time...
...and opens it again
Angelica uses her buzzer for the final time in Day 1
"Um,..."
"...that's a little too open."
Stu walking back to the opened window...
...and shuts the window slightly
"There. That's better...."
"...Thank you, Uncle Stu!..."
"...You're the bestest uncle there is!"
"She's startin' to get to me, Deed...."
"...We've been waiting on her hand and foot for two days straight!..."
"...I'm gonna go up there and disconnect that buzzer!"
"No, Stu,..."
"...you can't!"
"Sure I can!..."
"One little snip and..."
"I'm exhausted, too,..."
"but you remember what Dr. Doozer said!..."
"...She needs our care!"
Stu before sighing and sitting down
"Yeah, I guess you're right."
"I've been trying to reach Charlotte, but her cellular phone is always busy!"
"Call that a counter-offer? I call it..."
"Hold on, Jonathan. We're coming to a rapid."
Stu and Didi sitting at the dining room table before the buzzer goes off once more...
...and the buzzer goes off
"Your turn."
Didi starts to walk into the bedroom while Stu pushes aside his coffee cup
"Aunt Didi, tell me a story."
"How about The Three Little Pigs?"
"No."
"Okay...."
"...How about The Little Engine that Could?"
"No."
"Hansel and Gretel?"
"No..."
"...Tell me a story about... an angel."
"I don't think I know any stories about angels, honey."
"Then make one up."
"I'm not very good at making up stories."
"Oh! Oh! My fibula!"
"Once upon a time, there was an angel."
"And what was the angel's name?"
"Um,..."
"...Beth?"
"No."
"Heidi?"
"No."
"Angelica?"
"That's right, Aunt Didi...."
"...Go on."
"I don't know how much more of this I can take, Didi!..."
"...Boy, am I beat!"
Stu about to flick the lamp switch off
Stu hears Angelica using the buzzer
Angelica using her buzzer for the final time
"Uncle Stu,..."
"...I want some chocolate pudding."
"It's 3:00 in the morning, I'm tired,..."
"...and we don't have any chocolate pudding."
"Oh! Oh! The pain!"
"Angelica, we don't have any chocolate pudding!"
"There must be a store open somewhere."
"Angelica, I'm not going out at three in the morning to buy you chocolate pudding, and that's final!"
Stu goes to the Nite Owl market to buy chocolate pudding for Angelica
"Where's the chocolate pudding?"
"We're out of the ready-made stuff..."
"...but we got puddin' mix!"
View of the door to the kitchen
Didi walking into the kitchen
"Stu,..."
"...what are you doing?"
"Making chocolate pudding."
"It's 4:00 in the morning!..."
"...Why on Earth are you making chocolate pudding?"
"Because I've lost control of my life."
Angelica watching a war movie...
...and laughing
"Here's your pudding, Angelica."
"Oh, that's okay, Uncle Stu...."
"...I'm not hungry anymore."
Stu is about to scream when Angelica doesn't want the chocolate pudding she made him get for her while the war movie blares on
Camera cuts to Tommy's house as Stu screams shrilly
Day 3 is skipped entirely
Stu and Didi at the dining room table, shivering and twitching
"If I hear that buzzer one more time, I'm liable to crack!"
The telephone rings...
"Aaaah!"
"Stu, it's all right!..."
"...It's just the telephone!"
"Telephone!..."
"...Of course!"
Stu laughs hysterically
"The telephone!"
"Hello?..."
"...Yes, doctor!"
"We've had a slight mix-up with the X-rays. Apparently, Angelica's leg isn't broken after all. You can bring her down right away to remove the cast. I'm terribly sorry for the mistake."
"Mr. Peaches, I guess I owe you an apology, too."
"Stu, the hospital made a mistake. Angelica's fine!..."
"...We can bring her down to take the cast off right away!"
Stu crying hysterically at the news
"Stu, what's the matter?"
"I'm just so happy!"
Stu continues to cry hysterically at the news,...
...while Didi notices the doorbell going off,...
...and she opens the door
"Drew!..."
"...What are you doing back so soon?"
"We had to come back...."
"...Charlotte had a little run-in with a kayak."
"You mean?"
"Broken leg."

"Oh, it's just... you know, I-I can't get any cooperation around here...."
"...Hold on."
Charlotte presses her buzzer twice
"Drew,..."
"...Angelica,..."
"...what's taking so long?"
Angelica holding a plate near her father, while Charlotte's buzzer is heard blaring off
"But Daddy,..."
"...I want to do something fun!"
"Look, Angelica,..."
"...as long as Mommy is in her cast, we're gonna have to make her as comfortable as possible!..."
"...Anything Mommy wants, Mommy gets!..."
"...Understand?"
Drew visibly mad, hears Charlotte's buzzer go off twice
"Drew, Angelica, I need you now!"
"Angelica, do you know how to make Chocolate Pudding?"
