Abner, the Invisible Dog Page #7

- Really take them out.

- Yes, sir.

We need to recover those

secret formulas at any costs.

What do you got there,

Charlie?

There's enough tranquilizer

in these darts

to knock out

a bull elephant.

That's what

I'm talking about.

Come on. We'll go around

the side of the house,

maybe catch them off guard.

Okay.

Good luck.

Don't even think

about biting me.

Hey. You got ahold

of that mutt?

Yeah, but it's like

wrestling a sack of weasels.

I gotta say, it's been

a pleasure meeting you kids.

If you tell anybody

we were here...

- Ah, let's go.

- All right!

Oh, hey, look who it is.

Oh!

This works great.

Peep.

Great shooting, agents.

How you doin'?

I'm with

the U.S. Government.

Congratulations.

You two are heroes.

These men stole two

top secret government formulas,

and somehow

they wound up here.

You're darned right, they did,

and Abner drank them.

Who's Abner?

Abner is Chad's dog.

And by the way, one of those

formulas tasted like dog poo.

A talking invisible dog.

Makes perfect sense.

It does?

Now, look, I know you guys have

been through a really tough day,

but I'm sure you want to help

your government, right?

Good.

Our scientists must now

recreate the stolen formulas,

and in order to do that,

we must bring Abner in

for a few very simple tests.

I don't want to go.

Does he really have to go?

We should probably cooperate

with the government, Chad.

After all,

they are the good guys.

Thank you for understanding.

It'll be just for a few days,

and then we'll have him

back to you safe and sound...

and visible.

How great will that be?

Okay, Abner, come on, boy.

Oh, all right.

Come on.

Hey! Watch the foot, pal!

Jackie, Charlie,

stay here and secure

those prisoners.

Are you sure, sir?

But what about security?

One of us should stay with you

at all times.

Don't worry,

I'm perfectly capable

of transferring Abner

to the lab myself.

Hey, what's this?

This is the M38-R

signal jamming device.

Only one prototype of this

exists.

And the only one

who had access to it, sir.

Charlie, once again

you're mistaken.

It's the M38-R, all right.

Hey, that's

the phone-jamming device!

They used it to block

our emergency call.

Yeah, they told me

all about it.

They were pretty cocky

about the whole thing, too!

How did they get it?

Stay back, Jackie.

You, too, Charlie.

I'm leaving here with the dog,

and no one's going to stop me.

Hah! Famous last words.

Aah! Aah!

He bit my butt!

Stay back. Stay back!

I'm not kidding!

Stay back.

Allow me.

Hey, hotshot,

what's your hurry?

Ohh! Aah!

Take him, please!

Good work, Abner!

Yeah, get 'em, boy!

This explains a lot,

how the bad guy was able

to sneak into the lab

disguised as

Old Man Jenkins,

and how he knew what to

look for, where to look.

You set this all up,

didn't you, sir?

You even threw your own men

under the bus.

No, they were just

a couple of bumbling idiots.

I had a serious timeline.

I had the buyers lined up

for the formulas.

Now, please, someone

just get this dog off me!

Not until you say Uncle!

Double-crossed

by our own boss.

Of all the lowdown, dirty...

Did you say dirty?

Let me clean him up for you.

Aah! Gross!

Aah! Stop licking me!

Stop! Please!

Aah! Get him off!

Get him off!

Come on!

Good boy!

Aah!

Uncle! Uncle!

Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad.

Hey!

Well, how's your day been?

Great. I finished my school

project, and it was a doozy.

What's with him?

I had a little bit

of spare time,

and I decided

to give him a bath.

Oh. Good.

Probably needed it.

Whew!

I'm sure he needed it.

Smells like a stink bomb

went off in here.

Something wrong?

So tell me again.

Why didn't you have to go

with the government guys

to get the lab tests?

Jackie may not be a crook

like her ex-boss, Mr. Denning,

but she's a whole lot smarter.

- How so?

- All she really needed to do

was to take some of my slobber

off Denning's face

and run the tests on that.

Fortunately there was

plenty of it to work with.

Well, you gave him a washing.

He had it coming,

but it's gonna be a lot harder

to get your mom and dad

used to having me around now.

Give 'em time.

I know that bark.

It's my beautiful Afghan cutie.

Wait up, baby!

Here I come!

Oh, no.

Here comes trouble.

Stay close to me

and don't let 'em

know you're here.

Hey, Chad.

Going to school, I see.

You don't want to be late,

do ya?

I'm not afraid of you guys.

Oh, look at the little brainiac.

A tough guy.

Gotta be careful what you say,

brainiac.

Yeah. Real careful.

Ohh!

Aah!

That's right.

Go home to your mamas!

Wow! I saw

the whole thing, Chad!

You just beat the snot

out of those two boys.

Yeah, well, they started it,

and I was just like...

That was totally awesome!

Now they won't try to stop me

from hanging out with you.

Is Abner around?

Well, yeah...

I mean, I thought he was.

Abner?

Right here, pal.

Wait. Where were you?

You missed the whole thing.

Sorry, buddy. I had a little

business to attend to.

- What kind of business?

- Love business.

I made a hot date with that

little Afghan down the street.

Good for you!

Shouldn't you two kids

get going?

You don't want to be late

for school.

He's right, Chad.

Can I walk with you to school?

Uh, yeah, sure,

I mean, if you want to.

I do.

Have fun, you two.

See you around.

Maybe you will.

And maybe you won't.

Gesundheit.
