So this is the Hall of Puppy Power. What happens now?
It’s every pup’s dream come true. A happy home and loving master.
Hey, that’s me! And who’s that? Is that gonna be my master?
(Off-screen) Well, maybe. But if a puppy does things like snitching cookies.
(Off-screen) Or playing practical jokes.
(Off-screen) Or fooling with things he shouldn’t.
That puppy will never get a master. It’ll be a pound bound hound.
You see, Buddy, we know you did all those things and we know Bob isn’t real.
What? He is too real and he’s a better friend than any of you guys. (storming off)
Whoa. Took it pretty hard.
BBob
(Off-screen) Well, you are kinda rough on him.
BBob
(becoming visible) After all, he does believe in me. He wasn’t lying on purpose.
And you’re a dinosaur! Neato!
BBob
What were you expecting? A giant bunny rabbit?
Hey. Quit yanking my leash. You’re not real. So, uh, how can we see you?
BBob
Puppy Power made me visible. Up till now, I’ve only lived in Buddy’s mind. You see, Buddy’s been all alone since he was born. So he made me up. We play together, but I’m just pretend. Buddy needs a real friend.
Somewhere, there must be a boy who needs a friend like Buddy.
BBob
You know, I have a cousin who’s the make-believe friend of a lonely boy named Colin.
Ooh! Tell us everything, Bob-a-loo.
BBob
Well, you see, Colin was that something that was about… (whispers)
Yoo-hoo, Buddy? Where are you, dumpling?
(Off-screen) In here, guys!
Whoa! What’s shaking, kiddo?
I just cooked up some dog biscuits.
For you, guys. After I ate the ones Nose Marie made, it’s the least I could do.
It’s my way of saying sorry for all the stuff I did wrong. And as for Bob, he’s not really real. He’s just pretend.
BBob
(becoming visible) I filled him in, Buddy.
And now, Buddy, my buddy, it’s time to take you to meet your new master. Pound Puppies, let’s start pounding!
Oh, boy, you got to get a master.
Uh-oh, a pupscalator jam. We gotta push him through! Buddy’s up here all alone!
Uh! Why did Buddy have to have such a big imagination?
Now, with these new padlocks, I’m going to lock you pups away forever.
Eww, look, Mommy Dearest! It’s that yucky runaway dog!
Nothing can save the icky-poo troublemaking bow-wow now.
Oh, no! It-It feels like an earthquake!
KBKatrina and Brattina
Oh!
What is that, Mommy Dearest?
I don’t know, but it’s not getting in here!
That should teach Katrina not to be so cagey. (laughs)
CColin
Pretty funny comic, huh, Sam?
SSam
(laughs) I’ll say. There they are.
SSam
Hiya, Bob. (He comes to see Bob) Yeah, I’ve been expecting you, guys.
Is that him? My new master? Oh, I’m so nervous. Do you think you’ll like me?
SSam
Only one way to find out.
CColin
Sam. Sam, where are you? Hey, where’d you come from? Well, don’t be afraid. Come here, boy. Come to Colin.
BBob
(referring to Colin and Buddy) What do you know? They’re playing.
A match made in Puppy Heaven.
CColin
Sit, boy. Good dog. Now, wait here a second. Hey, mum! Can I keep a puppy?
Hey, Bob. He likes me. Just wait till he meets you.
BBob
Oh, but I can’t stay here, Buddy.
What do you mean? We’re a team, best friends. Where I go, you’ll go.
CColin
Mum said yes. I could keep you. Hey, where’d the puppy go?
This is your big chance for a real home, Buddy.
BBob
And I don’t wanna see you lose it. Go on. (He pushes Buddy back in)
BBob
We’ll be invisible friends to other lonely pups and kids. And remember, Buddy, anytime you think of me, I’ll be right here.
BBob
Right here. (He hugs Buddy)
Hey, don’t mention it, pal.
CColin
Where’d my little Buddy go? Here, Buddy!
BBob
Well, not alone anymore. Time for us to go, Sam.
And, uh, when you find those lonely kids and puppies, you know where to send them.
