All Dogs Go to Heaven Page #2

Synopsis: When a casino owning dog named Charlie is murdered by his rival Carface, he finds himself in Heaven basically by default since all dogs go to heaven. However, since he wants to get back at his killer, he cons his way back to the living with the warning that doing that damns him to Hell. Once back, he teams with his old partner, Itchy to prep his retaliation. He also stumbles on to an orphan girl who can talk to the animals, thus allowing him to get the inside info on the races to ensure his wins to finance his plans. However, all the while, he is still haunted by nightmares on what's waiting for him on the other side unless he can prove that he is worthy of Heaven again.

happy, Charlie.

You know that.

Yeah, but I've been

thinking.

What this place needs,

besides new curtains,

Is some class,

culture, choreography,

And some influence

of the theater.

Dancing girls.

What do you say?

Charlie, times has changed.

I've changed, you've changed.

What are you

talking about?

I haven't changed.

Charlie, you done time.

That's not good

for business.

What are you saying?

You are a dog

with a record.

I was framed!

I know. You're like

a brother to me.

That's why...why...

why what?

We need to split up

the partnership.

What? Are you

out of your mind?

They'll be looking

for you,

And what's the first place

they're gonna look?

Here. Here!

I don't like it,

Charlie,

But it's

for our own good.

Did it eat yet?

Yeah, it ate,

But how come

i got to feed

Carface's

little monster?

Huh! Monster!

Come on, dogs,

you've got a job to do.

Carface wants you should

get rid of Charlie.

Charlie?

Oh. Oh! Ooh! Ah!

Charlie!

They're going to

kill you, Charlie!

Charlie!

We'll set you up

somewheres

Where they don't

know you.

Yeah? Go on.

50% of this

is yours, right?

Charlie, take it.

You want a cut

of the steaks?

T-Bones?

Sure.

Porterhouse.

And one half

of the mignons.

This is sounding better

all the time.

Then it's a deal?

Well...

deal.

Put her there.

Ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha!

Boys, listen up!

My former partner

wishes to announce

That he is going

into business for himself.

You heard the boss.

Shut up!

Boys, to the mardi gras!

Charlie?

Uh, Charlie?

Ooh!

Ouch!

Watch those heels, lady.

And I am sure that I speak

For every dog amongst us

In wishing you

the best of luck

In your new venture.

And now, as a token

of our esteem,

We are presenting to you

This lucky gold watch!

Heh heh heh.

Ha ha ha!

Takes a licking

and keeps on ticking.

# No, you can't

keep a good dog... #

Killer.

Uh-Huh.

Take Charlie out back

for the big surprise.

Surprise?

What surprise, boss?

The big...

surprise.

Oh, ho ho!

You mean...

that surprise?

Oh...

oh...

# Doggy... #

Hee hee hee!

You're

the doggonedest pal

A swell could ever have.

Ha ha.

I love you guys.

You want to sing

with me?

Charlie!

# You can't

keep a good-- #

Do you know this?

# You can't keep

a good dog down #

This is the mark.

Stay here, and don't peek.

# I've been fat and thin

# I've been out,

been in... #

Boss!

Ha ha ha!

Shut up.

Ooh!

Good-Bye, Charlie.

Heh heh heh!

Boss, can I help you

push the car? Please?

Charlie!

Ha ha ha.

Huh huh!

Killer, shut up!

# Can't keep a good dog #

# Dooooooooown! #

# Dooooooooown! #

# Ahh ahh ahh #

# Ahh ahh ahh #

# Ahh ahh ahh #

# Ahh #

Huh! Where am i?

This is the great hall

of judgment.

Judgment?!

Oh, not to worry,

Charlie.

You'll go to heaven.

All dogs go

to heaven

Because,

unlike people,

Dogs are naturally good

and loyal and kind.

That's true.

# Welcome to doing

whatever you wish #

This is really a lovely place

you got here.

# Eating whenever

you please #

Follow me...

# to a constant

temperate climate #

# We keep it

73 degrees #

We're still

on Fahrenheit here.

That's fine with me.

# Welcome to

Oh, boy.

# To order and ca

lm instead #

Ah, great.

# Welcome... #

# To being dead #

What?

You mean I'm--I'm--

Stone cold,

I'm afraid.

I can't believe it!

I've been murdered!

I'm having trouble

Finding any goodness

or loyalty here,

But let me see.

He killed me!

I beg your pardon?

A mistake's

been made here!

# I don't want to die #

# You got

the wrong guy #

# I was double-Crossed

by a dirty rat #

# Actually, this rat

was a dog #

# But his car ran me down

, I just blew out of jail #

# I just got back to town

# Hey, this is hard

to explain #

# May I speak

to your superior? #

# 'Cause I don't

want to die! #

# Welcome to doin

g whatever you wish #

# You've got

the wrong guy #

# Laughing

and singing all day #

Listen!

My time's not up yet.

Oh, it is. There's

no mistake about that.

We know everything.

Murdered in the prime

of my life!

That Carface,

I'll kill him.

Hey, this must be

the watch department.

You might

call it that.

See, this watch

is your life...

and it's stopped.

Well, can't you just

wind it up or something?

And send you back?

Oh, no, no, no.

No one's ever

allowed to go back.

Put your paw

right here.

What's that for?

For our book

of records.

Everything about you

that was or will be

Is right here.

Oh, isn't that wonderful?

I love it here.

You mean there's

no surprises or anything?

Oh, no, no, no.

We know everything.

That's just lovely.

The clouds, the grass,

the air.

Heaven is

a wonderful place!

Yeah.

No surprises, huh?

Say...

would you like to dance?

You mean if I'm waiting for

an inside straight up here,

I'd know in advance

whether I filled it?

We know how

it all turns out.

You must have

studied dancing.

You have natural rhythm,

unusual for a whippet.

Oh, I'm getting dizzy!

Everything

is so lovely here--

So planned,

so ordered.

That's what's

driving me crazy.
