[Music]

portobello was buzzing with excitement

the governor's new painting competition

allowed anyone in town to enter all they

had to do was paint a portrait of their

favorite person

the governor himself would be the judge

parenting competition oh this sounds

grumpy

can't think why tom persuaded me to

come

can't be doing with art myself quiet

there a winning portrait will be hung in

pride of place in my art museum and the

winner will be hugged

the winning portrait correction

the winning portrait will be hard

[Applause]

that'll do i guess

if you ask me we need to stick to what

we do best good honest treasure hunting

eh absolutely

in my opinion artists are just a bunch

of down at heel scrounging doorbells

there's nobody in our first prize

200 gold doubloons

200 gold doubloons

dabbing

so captain bagwash his crew and half the

town applied to the famous russian

artist boris rubles for a crash course

in the painting so now you will all

i guess she was in town when i saw the

captain there say

i don't know but he's expecting to win

sure he is he's got to paint his

favorite person i thought i might

suggest that he paints a portrait of the

governor you know since the governor's

going to be the judge what do you think

i should be in the kitchen making roses

out of pink soviets

that's what i said

he's gonna paint the goblin

governor what color he paid the

cavanaugh quiet

in question very simple if that muckrake

bugwash is gonna paint the governor then

i'm gonna paint the governor too

imagination oh come on captain let's see

mister mate and put my mark on it then

you three can take it straight along to

the governor's residence cut along don't

the captain from complete embarrassment

perhaps his friend tony and mr rubles

could help

but when tom arrived in the cafe he

found the great russian artist missing
