A FAVOUR
[SALT]
[Ms. Goose]
Mm-hm-hm...
Ah, is that you, Hen?
Good of you to drop by.
Come on in.
Oh, I'm only coming in for a minute; I need to borrow some salt.
Now don't you be shy.
Come on through.
Well? Do you like it? [KARATE]
- Very! - Of course you do!
The colour is "Morning Sunrise".
I barely managed to grab one, yesterday.
Neighbour,
please give me a little salt.
What trifles.
Here, take a look at this:
see how pink it is!
And aren't the costumes so elegant?
And the sundresses are gorgeous!
And that bikini? Just lovely!
Can you imagine: me in a bikini!
Hey, listen,
get me a bikini! Do your neighbour a favour.
A bikini?
Yes! Word is that your friend, Ms. Turkey,
got a package of bikinis on Friday!
You see, I'm getting ready to go on vacation at the ponds,
but without a bikini... well, you know.
So how about it?
Are we agreed?
Make sure it is pink!
Oh, yes! I almost forgot:
size sixty four!
You hear?
[SALT]
Oh!
Who is this I see!
It's been a while since you last visited me, girlfriend!
You know... I, I just never quite got around to it.
Do me a favour.
I need a swimsuit.
A bikini.
A bikini for you?
You're joking! [BIKINI]
Unfortunately, I'm all out.
But for you, I will try to get one.
Your cousin,
Pheasant - the word is that he's become a fortune-teller.
Whatever he says comes true.
Put in a good word for Pheasant - make him give me an appointment!
My life is so confused!
They say it's not so easy to get through to see him!
I won't leave my debt unpaid.
You scratch my back, so to speak, and I'll scratch yours.
Understand?
[Doctor Pheasant]
So, here's the deal:
he will grow up to be a real drake.
But for the first two weeks, protect him from the evil eye.
And don't throw out his eggshell, otherwise...
One minute.
Ah! Hold on, hold on.
I... won't take up much of your time.
I have a request to ask of you.
A request? What have you got, then?
It's my friend, Ms. Turkey - won't you see her?
Don't even ask!
Insomnia and neurosis torment me!
Everyone begs: "see me, see me". I won't!
Wait.
All right, your friend can come.
But I have a request for you.
Go to your grandpa Wood Grouse
and get me a golden root.
Tell him that it's for your health.
Because of nerves, or something... Get going!..
Hen? Is that you? I can't believe it!
What a fine guest!
Oh! How could I forget?
Let's have some tea.
It has just boiled.
Oh, grandpa...
Tea won't save me.
What kind do you want? Lingonberry or raspberry?
I've come to you to get golden root.
Hmm, you're certainly right about that.
It sure was a rainy summer this year.
There were barely any berries at all,
but mushrooms were...
...plentiful.
But I came to get the root...
Ah, I've already got a whole barrelful of them.
But, as luck would have it, I don't have any...
...what's it called?...
Won't you bring me some salt?
Do me a favour!
You scratch my back, so to speak, and I'll scratch yours.
Ah, is that how it is?!
You scratch my back, so to speak, and I'll scratch yours?!
What's gotten into her?
