Pound Puppies (1986) quotes

Katrina

So, you honor, being Millicent Trueblood’s only living relative, I’ve come to demand the deed to her estate.

Brattina

And close down that icky-poo dog pound, right, Mommy Dearest?

Katrina

Yes, Brattina, dear. It’s a dream come true.

Well, then. Let’s proceed with the formalities of reading the deed. “To it. Here in stated the wherewithal of the party of the first part being under the conditions and terms of the party of the second part, and the party of the third part not…

Katrina

(sighs) This could take forever.

…does the party of the first part.”

Cooler

So, Shaky, there may be a few rotten apples in this cooky place we call a world. But if you just keep your peepers aglow, you’ll find the good ones.

That was a keen story, Cooler. And look, I’m not afraid of people anymore!

Holly

And we’re gonna find your home with people who will love you.

Nose Marie

Speaking of love, Cooler honey bunny. Sugar plum, there’s still a full moon out.

Howler

Did you just… uh, no, nose, on my lips? A whole face? You… You put on… (howls) I never knew you cared.

Nose Marie

(to Cooler) I do believe my sugar lips have missed their intended destination.

Cooler

(chuckles)

Nose Marie

Bullseye! (laughs)

Brattina

Who’s coming, Mommy Dearest?

Katrina

Mmm. Investors, Brattina. Investors in this scheme that will get rid of those Pound Puppies once and for all.

Catgut

(meows)

Katrina

Oh. My investors are here.

Katrina

(happily) Lord and Lady Belveshire, the third richest couple in the country. And I intend to take them for an absolute fortune.

Holly

So that’s her plan! She’s gonna close us down and put up condos.

Cooler

Not if we can help it. Come on, Buster. Your tornado act might come in handy.

Certainly!

Brattina

(using the binoculars) All the puppies are inside, Mommy Dearest.

Katrina

Now’s your chance, Catgut.

Catgut

(meows)

Katrina

I want you and your friends to sneak into that house and shred everything inside.

Katrina

But don’t let anyone see you. I want those flea-bitten puppies to take them blame.

Katrina

Good luck! And have a ripping good time! (laughs evilly)

Whopper

We made it! Doc Weston’s office!

Cooler

Thanks, Mac. Keep the change!

I hate getting paid with rawhide doggie chews.

Oh now, actually, according to the manual here, the pipe goes into lug nut D.

Katrina

I’ll fix your lug nuts if you don’t get me out of here!

I’m gonna follow the instructions, Miss Stoneheart.

Katrina

Brattina! Get me a can opener!

Catgut

(laughs evilly)

Catgut

(barks like a dog)

Hey! It’s that sloppy mutt who’s been disturbing the peace!

Let’s teach him some manners!

Catgut

(laughs evilly)

Kitty-cat, you’re out of luck! The zipper on your suit is stuck!

Catgut

(meows)

Okay, buddy. We’re gonna put an end to your one-dog Wrecking Crew!

Cooler

Looks like Catgut’s really gone to the dogs.

Brattina

Mommy Dearest, look! Holly’s here and she’s dancing with my Mervin!

Katrina

How did she get here? Well, I’ll put a stop to this.

Holly

But no food and no money, I’ll have to close down the pound.

Bright Eyes

Don’t worry, everybody. We’ll get by without money or food. We can live on love!

Nose Marie

(chuckles) How’s that sound to you, Cooler honey?

Cooler

I’d rather have some loose change in a baloney sandwich, thank you very much.

Brattina

Bye, Holly! We’re going to the dog hater’s convention! Yah!

Katrina

And we won’t be back until late tonight.

Brattina

So try to hose yourself up before we get back.

Katrina

Aren’t we the mean ones though!

Nose Marie

(scoffs) If abate’s so terribly ladylike, I’d give Katrina’s ankle bone a severe nibbing.

Cooler

Sounds like a hologram.

Howler

It’s for Whopper. Dear Nephew, stop. I’m stopping by puppy pound today for brief. Stop, stop. Your Uncle J.R. Whopper. Stop. Stop, stop.

Cooler

All right, pups! It’s time for operation find Howler! Nose Marie, Bright Eyes, Whopper, hit the streets!

Righto!

Cooler

Sherlock, you and the other pups help Holly with the repairs.

A-yup, a-yup, a-yup!

Cooler

Pound Puppies, let’s start pounding!

Hooray!

Egad! Small dogs!

Go away! Shoo! Scat!

Cooler

What do you mean? We’re trying to save you, cookie cats. This truck’s on a one-way trip to Palookaville.

Mind your own business, governor. We’re-We’re on a vital mission.

Yes, indeed. The next time you start to rescue someone, why don’t you ask permission first?

Cooler

Oh, boy. You cats were confused, but these dudes are out to lunch.

Katrina

Ah! Oh, a day on the beach has worked wonders for me, girls.

Holly

You do seem more relaxed, Auntie Katrina.

Katrina

Oh, I am, Holly. I feel like all my Pap-puppy troubles are behind me.

Katrina

Puppies! Puppies! Lots and lots of puppies!

Brattina

Icky, icky, icky-poo!

Holly

Cooler?

Cooler

We’ll explain later, Holly! Ciao for now!

Katrina

Puppies! Puppies! (howls)

Brattina

(singing) The captain’s found the booklet! The captain’s found the booklet! Jumpy-joy! Boy, oh boy! The captain’s found the booklet!

(speaking in foreign language)

Katrina

Dog fur coats! Here we come! The Puppy Pelter is ready for blast-off! Brattina! How do we start this thing?

Brattina

Uh, it’s hard to tell, Mommy Dearest.

Katrina

(Off-screen) What do you mean?

Brattina

(She shows Katrina) The instruction booklet’s written in Chinese.

Katrina

NO! It can’t be! Not Chinese! No! No, no! Why did I ever study French?! I CAN’T STAND IT!

And now what makes you think you have to stop up?

Whopper

I know all about stars and pups. (imagining the ball is in high falling) In fact, we may have some more of pups used to live on a star. Yeah boy, it was in high. A mill… zill… A kabillion degrees. (imagining he and pups look at the temperature going up higher then pops, drinking water and flies the spaceship) But we stay cool by drinking lots of water and keeping the flying saucer’s windows rolled down. Yeah!

You know, I wish this kid had some Rye Bread. I hate for all that baloney to go to waste. Well, the star pup must be honest and true, and that eliminates you.
