A Dog's Purpose Page #3
One!
- Come on!
Yeah, boy.
--Yeah, boy.
- Oh, come on.
- Let's do it again.
- Yes!
- Yeah!
Nice throw, Ethan.
Nice throw.
Nice play.
Great pass, Ethan.
Got 'em now. Right on.
You-you get it to him
every time.
Yeah, exactly.
'Cause every time
we run that play...
Everybody wanted to walk
next to the Alpha male.
Yeah, that's what I mean.
Almost everybody.
'Cause he's right there
every single time. -Yep.
-Ethan, why do you always
have this dog with you? -Hmm?
What? It's like a girlfriend
replacement or something?
- Huh?
-Yeah, good one, Todd.
Give a little kiss? Huh?
I'm just asking.
Excuse me.
Oh, I'm sorry, Todd.
Did my, uh, girlfriend
replacement just trip you?
Very funny.
-Relax, man. I'm kidding.
-The dog's laughing at you.
-Dogs don't laugh, you moron.
-Bailey, come here.
That's funny.
Got everything?
-Yeah.
When Lou dropped that pass
at the start,
- I thought we were done, man.
- -I know!
Here.
Bailey, come here.
Hey, dad.
- You hungry?
- I'm starving.
-I got a casserole in the oven.
-Yeah?
Africa is home to hundreds
of thousands of animals.
Some look comical, some...
Some forbidding,
and some so entrancing
that we'd like
to reach out and touch them...
So, uh, coach made me
starting quarterback today.
That's great, kid.
You gotta come
to my next game, dad.
I'm serious.
I'm better now.
It's been a long time.
Okay.
Poor dad.
Wow. Wow!
This place is great.
-Oh, there's so much
to smell here. -
and eat.
Oh, it's everywhere.
Feed me. Feed me.
- You want to go next?
- Mm-hmm.
Ethan had a different smell
all of a sudden.
A sweaty smell.
Who wants to go
on that roller coaster?
Hmm. I wonder if that girl
had anything to do with it.
Oh! Hey, hey, hey!
Bailey, Bailey, Bailey, Bailey!
-Whoa!
-Sorry.
Sorry. Sorry.
That was the dog.
That wasn't me.
-Oh.
-I wouldn't do that.
Okay, well, maybe
some manners.
I've been trying.
He's, uh... he's not too smart.
Really?
Wow. Did you hear
what he said about you?
Oh, yeah.
Such intelligent eyes.
My butt itches.
What's your name, handsome?
He's, uh... he's Bailey.
-Bailey, yeah.
-Bailey.
Now, you seem like
a very good dog, Bailey.
- Yeah.
- Excuse me?
-Nice job.
-Oh. Thank you.
Nice.
Yeah... oh!
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Keep that away from him.
-Okay, okay, okay.
-You're really good at that.
Thanks.
-Like, really good.
-Yeah?
I was watching you over there.
- Okay.
-Not like that.
I mean... yeah.
See ya.
Hey, uh, if we never
speak again,
I just want to take back
what I said before
about my dog not being smart.
Definitely smarter than me.
Now they both had
a sweaty smell.
You want to, uh... you want
to get a hot dog or something?
Popcorn?
Sure.
Okay, let's do it.
There's some good ones
over here.
Hey, Bailey, come here.
I wanted to save them,
but I didn't know how.
- Come on.
-We done?
-Oh, that was good.
-Never again.
-No! It was fun!
-Thank you.
--Thank you.
- Whoa!
- -Whoa!
Uh-oh, Ethan's in trouble.
I'm gonna die.
I'm gonna die.
I'm gonna die.
-Whoa!
-Whoa!
What's wrong with you?
-Oh, don't worry, Ethan.
-I'll help. -Hey, hey, hey,
hey, no, no, no, no, no.
Stay back. Stay back.
-Bailey, no, no, no.
-But I'm helping.
Bailey, stop! Bailey, Bailey,
Bailey, Bailey, Bailey,
Bailey, stop, stop, stop, stop.
Hey. No.
-Okay.
-Yeah.
Thank you.
Thank you both for the ride.
Why did I eat
so many meat logs?
Yeah, we should do something.
Yes, that would be nice.
It was fun.
It was.
for 28 hot dogs. -
excuse me.
Whoa!
-Yeah, you better go.
You better go quick. -Okay.
-Okay. Bye.
-See ya.
From that moment on,
the girl was a member
of our pack.
I liked her.
Plus she smelled
like biscuits.
Go! Go, Bailey!
-That a boy.
-Ready, Bailey?
-Yeah. Go, go, go.
-Ready? Okay, here we go.
-Oh! Good boy!
-What a dive.
What was that?
-Oh! Good boy!
-Swim!
Bring it back!
That a boy.
-Come here, boy.
-That a boy. That a boy.
-Come on.
-Oh, good boy!
-Good boy. Good boy.
-Yeah, good boy.
-Oh! Whoa!
-Hey!
Watch your head.
Good boy.
- No, it's not okay.
- No.
Besides, I'm going.
-Why?
-You don't listen!
Every time I ask you
You tell me!
You tell me where it's going!
'Cause I earn it!
I earn it! I earn it!
You, uh... you want to go
to town instead?
Yeah.
-Bailey.
-Come on, Bailey!
We howled together.
And sometimes
we would sit in the car
not even going anywhere.
Ethan and Hannah would wrestle
and lick each other.
Are they fighting over food?
Maybe Hannah's hiding
something in her mouth.
Whoa! Whoa!
Nope. Nothing in there.
Oh, my...
What's going on with you?
Man, he loves you.
But no matter how much
he looked for food in there,
And he looked.
A lot.
Summer's ending.
Best summer ever.
Yeah.
I don't want to go
back to school.
Yes, you do.
I do?
Yes.
You are gonna get
a big football scholarship
at a good school.
And then I'm gonna apply
to that school
and get an academic
scholarship.
And then we'll both be
at college,
and we'll never be apart.
Wow.
You've got it all
planned out, huh?
Yes, indeed.
-That's a good plan.
-Mm-hmm.
Right, Bailey?
What? What did you say?
- See ya.
- Bye.
Bye!
See you tomorrow.
Good boy.
I gotta go.
Where are you going?
I'm getting some beer.
All I ask is
for you to lower your voice.
-That's all I...
-Stop, stop. Just stop!
Will you please
just keep it down?
My parents are upstairs, Jim.
You need to stop.
Oh, I'm sorry.
You know, you're right.
Fine.
I will stop doing it, then.
I'll just go!
I'll just leave.
Does that sound good to you?
Come on, boy.
-Does it sound good to you?
-Well, I don't know.
You tell me. -Will that be
good for you? Will you be
happy then if I just...?
No, just tell me. Just tell me
if you'll be happy.
-Stop it. Just go!
-Oh, I'm gonna go!
Fine, I'll go.
Will you just
come back inside...
Stop it, eliz...
Shut up! Shut up!
Just come back inside.
I am trying to help you, Jim.
You're trying to help me?
You want to help me?
You're my wife, Elizabeth.
-I do support you.
-Will you just come back
inside... -Hey. Hey, pal.
Hey.
You spying on me?
What?
You spying on me?
-Leave him alone, Jim.
-Come here.
-Leave him alone.
-No. You got something to say?
-I just got home.
-Come here.
-Look at how he looks at me.
-No.
-I am so sick of the way you
look at me. -It's okay, Ethan.
- It's okay.
- Just relax. Relax.
-Look at how you look at me.
-What are you doing?
-This has nothing to do
with him. -Stay out of it.
-This has nothing...
-You stay out of it!
What are you doing?
Easy. Take it easy.
Take it easy.
-You're right.
-God...
You're right.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
--I'm gonna...
