Paddington loves cooking shows, but this time, the toffee recipe he's made turns out all wrong and indigestible. So when Paddington complains of stomach cramps and grabs his stomach in pain, the Browns hurry him to the hospital for emergency surgery. Luckily it's just a case of galloping toffee drops which got stuck to Paddington's fur.When Mr. Gruber and Paddington's car breaks down in a small, dusty, mid-west town in the U.S., they are unknowingly recruited into the Army Reserves--and are sent off to boot camp. Paddington and Mr. Gruber find the Army isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially the food, but they make the best of it and end up being awarded medals of honour.Paddington is swindled into buying some bogus shares for the Portobello Road Oil Company, so he sets out to the Stock Exchange to trade his bad shares for good ones. Paddington sets the market on a downswing when rumours spread about bogus shares flooding the market. But the rumours also help catch the con man, and Paddington gets his money back.
