When seven-year-old Pollyweena Grubble's parents go away for a week, Great Aunt Mabel comes to babysit. Polly can't wait for Auntie to meet her best friend, Gertie. But when Auntie learns that the two rascals chewed filthy bubblegum they collected from the pavement, she bans them from playing together, ever again.

Polly's miserable enough without having to eat Auntie's disgusting cooking, so when Auntie's not looking, she stuffs the yucky food in-between the clean sheets in the linen cupboard. Trouble is, the grumpy old stickybeak discovers the filthy mess and sends Polly to bed with no supper.

No one can keep Polly away from her bestest friend in the whole wide world. The next morning as she sits in the basket on Gertie's new bicycle, the two rascals go for a joy ride. But Gertie pedals way to fast and someone's standing on the footpath. Polly yells at Gertie to stop, but that naughty girl never listens to anybody. Now they're in big trouble with the police, and their crabby old headmistress.
