After that MB walks backwards and he bumps into the boy who is fat then he says “get that ball by now” because the ball is on the roof. Then MB sees a window cleaner. He will try to use the ladder which the window cleaner is using. Then he walks forward and walks across the road, and rings someone’s doorbell. Then a grandpa with a mouse on his shoulder opens the door. MB asks him may I come in? Then the grandpa says ok you can. I think maybe MB will go to the roof and get the tennis ball. The man is sitting on the fence which is made of wood, and is near the tennis court, over the road / across the road. Then MB goes onto the tallest window and he uses a crutch to get the tennis ball. Then he hits the drainpipe but it doesn’t work because it’s not strong enough.
