The family escape thanks to Chitty's miraculous transformation into a boat, and Truly goes home to Scrumptious Manor (" Lovely Lonely Man").
In the story, the nasty Baron Bomburst, tyrant of the fictional land of Vulgaria, attempts to steal Chitty. At the beach, Caractacus tells the children a story, beginning an extended fantasy sequence. They are joined by Truly Scrumptious, the wealthy heiress to the candy company, and, though she and Caractacus have previously had heated encounters, everyone has a pleasant time (" Truly Scrumptious"). For their first trip in the car (" Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"), Caractacus and the children go to a beach to have a picnic.
He earns enough money in tips to buy the car and rebuilds it, naming it "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" after its unusual engine sounds. It malfunctions, ruining the customer's hair, and, in order to escape the furious customer, Caractacus joins a spirited song-and-dance act (" Me Ol' Bamboo"). That evening, Caractacus sings his children a lullaby (" Hushabye Mountain") before going to a carnival, where he attempts to raise money with another of his inventions, an automatic hair-cutting machine. To raise money, he attempts to sell one of his inventions, a musical hard candy, but the candy's whistle attracts a horde of dogs, ruining his sales pitch ("Toot Sweets"). When they learn the car is due to be scrapped, they return home (" You Two") and beg their father to save it.
