I get where you’re coming from, but: to me, it calls to mind the scene where they sing about that word; not the scene where they fly a kite; not the scene where the kids explain what they want in a nanny; not the scene where a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down; not the scene where the uncle is floating up by the ceiling; just, y’know, that one musical number, is all. ---
