We see from trees the exterior of the Lady Penelope Creighton Ward Mansion. Now, we see FAB 1 outside with Lady Penelope in one of her stunning outfits. She waits patiently in the car for Parker with a dangerous amount of luggage in the car for driving in. We can't see him just yet as we only see Penelope, and hear some thumping in the car, like something being pushed in the car. We now see Parker outside attaching a hook so the huge amount of luggage inside the car can be put inside, but it still isn't enough.
Penelope:
Parker? Parker?
Parker comes around to the right-hand side of the car to Lady Penelope.
Parker:
Yes, m'lady?
Penelope:
What seems to be the trouble?
Parker:
Well m'lady, you did insist we would be travelling light. But we can't fit it all in. Even with the hook.
Penelope:
Very well Parker, I shall help you out.
Parker:
Yes, m'lady.
Penelope has gotten out of the car, and can see the impact she has made after, as now the hook is hanging very thinly with luggage still hanging out from the car and very likely to fall out! The car has set off now, with the luggage still swimming deep in FAB 1. The Rolls Royce speeds down the road travelling too fast.
Penelope:
There we are Parker. It all fits nicely in the car.
Parker:
Quite m'lady. But we're behind time.
Penelope:
Don't worry Parker. We will get there safely and on time. I just can't wait to arrive at Marineville and meet Troy Tempest and the other members of the World Aquanaut Security Patrol.
Parker:
And then we will head off in that Stingray and arrive at Arctica base. From the sounds of it m'lady, this Stingray ship sounds like quite a little beauty.
Penelope:
It is indeed Parker. Like the Thunderbird machines, it was made from a Cahelium material, a substance that seems to be not quite so scarce now more traces of it have been located underwater. Oh well.
We see down the road FAB 1 still travelling way too fast down the road but see a speed camera they are approaching too.
Mind your speed, Parker.
Parker slows down and continues at the speed limit to avoid a fine.
Parker:
Yes, madam.
After he is out of range of the speeding camera, he accelerates down a stretch and runs straight over a speed bump, knocking some luggage out from the back. We see the luggage on the road in the car's mirrors. THUMP! THUMP! CLAMP! BUMP!
Penelope:
Parker!
Parker:
Sorry, m'lady.
The car eventually pulls up to the side of the road and stops. Lady Penelope's voice is smug and joking, and Parker's is one of regret, as he has just had calmer happen to him.
Penelope:
We're behind time Parker.
Parker:
Yes, madam.
Penelope:
You go and collect the luggage, Parker, and I will go and contact Jeff to let him know we're on our way.
Parker:
Yes, m'lady.
Parker then leaves the car to collect the fallen luggage, and Penelope opens her make-up compartment.
Penelope:
Calling International Rescue. International Rescue, come in please...
