The Fog from London
Probably, in that bottle sits a genie.
He's been waiting for thousands of years to be freed,
and will certainly reward someone for that.
What should I ask the genie?
No... ah... maybe...
No.
Maybe, the genie will suggest some reward for his freedom himself.
Hey, Mr. Genie...
Hey, Mr. Genie!
Koff-koff-koff!
Hello, Little Fox!
I am no genie.
Who, then?
The fog!
The fog from London!
From where?
From London!
But you, Little Fox, you have let me out!
And I... I will grant any wish you may have! Koff-koff!
What do you want?
I... I don't know...
I... I'll think about it.
Think! Think...
Oh! How lovely!
Oh, can you believe this?!
To be in London itself!
Oh!
Lovely? Hm.
Lovely...
...but I don't want to live in London.
But I, maybe, even have roots in England!
It's no accident, after all, that we crows know the English word "car"...
...which means, "automobile"!
But I don't want to yell "car".
I want to go home.
You fool!
You're already home!
Ah, what fortune,
to end up there, without having flown anywhere!
I wonder what the time is?
Even the time will probably now drown in the fog...
Oh...
What's that?
Koff!
That... that is the clock on the tower... of Big Ben!
Well, then? Have you thought of something?
Nuh-uh.
Not yet.
I've never yet had to think in a fog.
Nuh-uh-uh-uh-uh, never mind!
I will wait a little more!
Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha!
See, how many fine things our forest now has!
Hup! Big Ben! Car!
By the way, have you signed up for my accelerated courses?
I'm gathering anyone who wants to learn to pronounce the English word "car"...
...�which means "automobile"!
Ah! And now excuse me, I'm in a hurry!
Well, Little Fox?
Have you thought of a gift?
Yes, yes!
I wish for the sun!
Oh-ho! That's easy!
Let there be sun!
But before I leave, I'll also leave you the gift of my raincoat.
Oh, oh!
What an injustice!
You were permitted to approach the fog, and look what you've done!
You call this colour? You call this life?
Come on, don't be upset.
Take my raincoat.
The fog gave it to me, and I am giving it to you.
Oh!
Oh, what a ra... oh!
Oh, what a rarity!
A present, from England!
Oh! What fine needlework!
