Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Bob watches over Barkley while Linda paints her kitchen. Barkley is feeling very sad, though. The Amazing Mumford happens by and has a trick that can help improve Barkley's spirit. He waves his wand and makes a giant ball appear; Barkley isn't interested. He tries again, conjuring up a giant bone; Barkley, again, isn't up to it. Bob surmises that Barkley merely misses Linda, inspiring Mumford to try again. This time, he makes Linda appear (complete with her paint and brush).
