PaddingtonMrs Brown says that in London everyone is different, and that means anyone can fit in. I think she must be right - because although I don't look like anyone else, I really do feel at home. I'll never be like other people, but that's alright, because I'm a bear. A bear called Paddington.

Aunt LucyYou once, there was once a war in the explorer's country. People in England sent their children by train with labels around their necks, so they could be taken care of by complete strangers in the country side where it was safe. They will not have forgotten how to treat strangers.

PaddingtonDear Aunt Lucy. I'm sorry I haven't written sooner but so much has been happening. I even met the explorer's daughter, but she tried to stuff me, so Mrs. Bird threw her off a roof. Millicent Clyde. The Judge didn't think that prison would do her any good. So instead he gave her community service...
Henry BrownIt is true. And when I first met Paddington, I wanted nothing to do with him. But my wonderful wife... she opened her heart to him, and so did my incredible children. And now I have, too.
Henry BrownIt doesn't matter that he comes from the other side of the world, or that he's a different species. Or that he has a worrying marmalade habit. We love Paddington. And that makes him family! And families stick together! So if you want him, you'll have to take us all!
Mr. CurryAffirmative. The Furry Menace is home alone. I repeat, the Furry Menace is home alone.

MillicentWelcome to your new home, bear. This is a cathedral of knowledge. Every major explorer has added to its glory. Charles Darwin brought the giant tortoise from the Galapagos.
Paddington[passing by animal exhibits]Good evening.

MillicentEach of these men has been immortalized through his finds. But do you see anything from my father? No. Because when he met your oh, so precious species, he refused to collect a specimen. We could have been rich and famous. But instead, he threw it all away and he opened a petting zoo. He put the happiness of a few furry creatures above his own flesh and blood. I vowed that one day I would finish the job my father never could. And now, at last, that day has come.

MillicentThat's right! I'm going to stuff you, bear.
