Summary:
Paddington goes to school Disaster strikes the Brown household when Paddington is told he must attend school. This dramatic news leads to a series of adventures with unexpected consequences. A visit to the dentist Paddington loses part of his tooth down the waste disposal sink and has to go to the dentist. Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Bird accompany him. Mr. Leach the dentist attempts to take a wax impression of Paddington's tooth. He asks Paddington to bite and he does so on the dentist's thumb. Paddington cleans up Paddington leaves his shopping basket on wheels outside a baker's shop, and when he comes out he finds a vacuum cleaner on the basket and a salesman telling him he can make a fortune with it. He makes a big mess in Mr. Curry's lounge so as to demonstrate the cleaner, when he finds that Mr. Curry has no electric socket for plugging in the cleaner. Mr. Curry tears his hair in rage. A bear in hot water Paddington arrives at 32, Windsor Gardens, the Brown's home. He meets their housekeeper, Mrs. Bird. After unpacking he is taken to the bathroom, where he creates a disastrous mess bathing, and meets Jonathan, the Brown's son. A visit to the hospital Mr. Curry is in hospital and Paddington decides to visit him with cakes, grapes, magazines, etc. His hat, containing marmalade sandwiches sticks to his head, so he asks the receptionist at the hospital if he can have his head examined. Mr. Heinz, a psychiatrist interviews Paddington and tells him to give him a word with the opposite meaning to those he will call out. All goes well until Mr. Heinz says "we've nearly finished". "We've only just started," cried Paddington. "Will you stop!" yelled Mr. Heinz "No I won't" cried Paddington. Mr. Heinz is exasperated and says it is his first failure in forty years, and a bear and he ought to have his head examined. In and out of trouble Paddington tries to get into a hammock for the first time. Keeping fit Paddington decides to take up bodybuilding but he doesn't really achieve building any muscles just breaking Mr. Curry's fence. Paddington dines out Paddington is taken out to dinner by the Browns but marmalade sandwiches are not what one should order in restaurants. A visit to the theater Watching a play at the theatre with the Browns, Paddington gets confused by the plot and decides to resolve the solution behind the scenes. Paddington takes the stage Paddington is asked to help out at a local theatre production, which he does, but things are not as they should be.
