The bane of Bart's existence is the hated piano lessons he endures under the tutelage of the authoritarian Dr. Terwilliker (<a href="/wiki/Hans_Conried" title="Hans Conried">Hans Conried</a>). Bart feels that his mother has fallen under Terwilliker's influence, and gripes to their plumber, August Zabladowski (<a href="/wiki/Peter_Lind_Hayes" title="Peter Lind Hayes">Peter Lind Hayes</a>), without result. While hammering at his lessons, Bart dozes off and enters a musical dream. </p><p>In the dream, Bart is trapped at the surreal Terwilliker Institute, where the piano teacher is a madman dictator who has imprisoned non-piano-playing musicians. He built a piano so large that it requires Bart and 499 other boys (hence, 5,000 fingers) to play it. Bart's mother has become Terwilliker's hypnotized assistant and bride-to-be, and Bart must dodge the Institute's guards as he scrambles to save his mother and himself. He tries to recruit Mr. Zabladowski, who was hired to install the Institute's sinks ahead of a vital inspection, but only after skepticism and foot-dragging is Zabladowski convinced to help. Having convinced him, Bart and Zabladowski free Heloise and attempt to flee, but are captured. In the dungeon, the two construct a noise-sucking contraption which ruins the mega-piano's opening concert. The enslaved boys run riot, and the "atomic" noise-sucker explodes in spectacular fashion, bringing Bart out from his dream. </p><p>The movie ends on a hopeful note for Bart, when Mr. Zabladowski notices Heloise and offers to drive her to town in his jeep. Bart escapes from the piano and runs down the street to play, with his dog Sport joyfully capering at his heels. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_5,000_Fingers_of_Dr._T.&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Peter_Lind_Hayes" title="Peter Lind Hayes">Peter Lind Hayes</a> as August Zabladowski</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Mary_Healy_(entertainer)" title="Mary Healy (entertainer)">Mary Healy</a> as Heloise Collins</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Hans_Conried" title="Hans Conried">Hans Conried</a> as Dr. Terwilliker</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Tommy_Rettig" title="Tommy Rettig">Tommy Rettig</a> as Bartholomew Collins</li> <li>John Heasley as Uncle Whitney</li> <li>Robert Heasley as Uncle Judson</li> <li>Noel Cravat as Sgt.
