When Blanche goes to bed, she tries very hard to avoid the night. She makes loud noises to try to wake up the sun, but instead she wakes up angry parents. She sings and fools around, jumping and tumbling on her bed until she is caught again. Eventually, she wears herself out and falls happily asleep.
