Has anyone seen my CD?

Au revoir, party poopers!

Come on, Carl, let's dance.

Look, just leave now,

and I won't tell...

Oh, no, where'd you go?

#Allons, enfants de la patrie,

le jour de gloire est arriv! #

The monkey gave it to you...

You really expect me

to believe that?

The monkey from dad's clinic

followed me to the party, and...

Oh, the party

that you snuck out to attend?

Well, yeah,

but it wasn't my fault!

- Then whose fault is it?

- This ought to be good.

I told you,

it was the monkey's.

Oh, the monkey, the hawk, the dog!

The dog?

I wasn't even there! The dog...

God, do you ever shut up?

Don't hate the player, girl,

hate the game!

You see, that's the problem:

...I'm always talking to animals, Mom.

I need them to stop.

No, you need to stop.

I think maybe you need

to start thinking seriously...

...about who you really are...

...and what your future

has in store for you.

Okay, well...

I guess I can take a couple

of weeks off from the clinic...

...just to get my head together.

Maybe go down to the beach,

and do some shopping with Viv.

The beach? I could use a tan.

I'm talking

about a complete break...

...a total change of scenery.

There's this camp,

a ranch, actually...

...that I went to when I was younger.

- Wait! A ranch?

Yeah, that's a good one, Mom...

...but you and I both know

I'm not a ranch kind of girl.

I think this could be

a really good thing for you.

Mom, you were not me!

Oh, God, Mom!

You're sending me away?

To a ranch, with animals?

What are you thinking?

Maya, you love animals.

Okay, Mom, just listen to me

for one second.

I was almost "B" crowd once...

...then I start talking to animals,

and I went straight to a "C".

Now I'd just be happy

being back to "B" minus...

...like the swim team people.

- Or the chess club even.

I'm sorry, sweetie,

I'm trying to help you.

But you're punishing me

for something I can't control.

I'm not punishing you.

You have a gift,

and you need to learn to accept it.

I'd rather return it.

I want to talk to daddy.

I already did.

He thinks it's a great idea.

Well, you'd better get some sleep,

because the bus leaves at noon.

- Wait, I'm leaving tomorrow?

- Durango is a great place.

You're going to thank me one day.

No, I won't!

Mom, I just want to be normal!

I wish I wasn't a Dolittle...

Mom, I'm serious! I'm not going!

A ranch? What would I even wear?

Oh, my God, my hair!

I think I just went straight

from a "C" to an "F".

"F" is good.

"F" is the new "B".

Mom, I can't believe

I let you talk me into this!

Just give it a chance, honey.

I promise, one day...

Yes, I know,

one day I'll thank you.

Just do your best

to have a good time...

...and everything

is going to work itself out.

Go.

- I don't know if I can do this.

- Sure you can! Just do what I do.

And what is that?

Drink out of the toilet bowl?

No, I take it one day at a time.

Yeah, thanks for the advice,

Dr. Phil!

- Stay off my bed while I'm gone.

- Oh, you can count on me.

Not...

Not...

What happened?

You miss the bus to the mall?

Yeah, but that was only because

I was trying to figure out...

...how much make-up we were

going to need for your makeover.

Okay,

it's going to be like that, huh?

Hey, you're the one

messing with me?

Ladies, ladies! Come on, now.

Calm down! Papa's here, alright?

We don't need to argue,

where's love?

Sorry, dude.

Didn't mean to do that.

- It's a big bag, isn't it?

- Yeah... it's not the only thing!

Coming through. Excuse me,

these are big bags. Watch out.

Oh, come on!

- Anybody wants some Off?

- Some back off is more like it.

- What? It's good to be prepared.

- Prepared for what? Malaria?

Come on,

I've got donuts here.

D- nut? D-nut?

Want a donut? D-nut?

Ah, cool.

- How about you? You want one?

- No.

Whoopsie daisy.

Five second rule's still in effect.

This is gonna be one long summer...

What's the matter?

You homesick already?

What's your problem?

You don't even know me!

No, and I don't need

to know you either, okay?

- I can spot your type a mile away.

- Hey, hey!

Let's play the quiet game, huh?

Winner gets a date with yours truly?

Shouldn't you be, like,

at fat camp or something?

Look, my bones are large.

Alright?

Whatever helps you sleep at night!

Wow, this is gorgeous!

That's Silver Spurs, another ranch.

Your ranch is over there.

Oh, no!

Yeah! Finally we're here!

Excuses-moi!

Something stinks!

Okay, clearly,

there's been a mistake.

I said "A list" not "hay list".

Hello? Mom, are you there?

- Mom, are you there? Pick up!

- Maya!

Come on, pick up, it's me!

Maya, I'm coming.

Just hang on, just keep yapping.

It's awful out here...

Call me

whenever you get this message.

- I need you to come pick me up.

- Maya, Maya!

Where's that freaking button?

- I really need to learn how to read!

- Okay, bye...

I've got to get out of here.

- Easy! - You princess,

what are you looking at over there?

On second thought, maybe this place

isn't so bad after all.

That's the only smart thing

you've said all day.

Who are you?!

I'll be back to you later.

- The crapper...

- Oh, I just stepped on something!

Howdy!

Welcome to Durango. I'm Bo.

Wow, Bo! That was amazing

what you did with that horse!

Do you, like,

work here or something?

I guess you can say that.

My dad owns this place.

Cool!

The first thing is get you guys

unpacked, and you can go ahead and...

You have amazing eyes!

Thank you, that's...

mighty kind of you to say that.

Oh, no, please tell me

I didn't just say that out loud!

Don't worry.

I won't even hold it against you.

By the way,

I didn't catch your name.

I'm Brooklyn. Brooklyn Webster.

Okay, Brooklyn Webster.

How you doing?

I'm... doing much better now!

I'm Maya. Maya Do...

Dolores.

Maya Dolores Hanes.

Maya Dolores Hanes...

That's an interesting name

right there.

Not really. Just your simple,

Plain Jane kind of last name.

Nothing really special about it.

I really like those chaps on you.

Those look... fantastic!

And I love your hat.

It makes us look like we're twins!

They're like moths to a flame!

You know, it's very nice

to meet both of you ladies.

It's nice to meet all of you, guys.

The first thing we need to do

is get everybody unpacked...

...and get you guys all settled in,

alright? - Okay.

Come on, everybody...

...I'm going to show you

all to the bunkhouse...

...and then we can all get started

on some ranching chores. - Swell!

I want the bed with the window!

Oh, what a dump!

Were you expecting the Four Seasons,

or something?

Okay, did I do something specific

or are you always such a...

Oh, I'm sorry, did I hurt

your little Miss Priss feelings?

No, seriously,

do you always act like this?

Only when I see something I want.

And right now, I want Bo.

So you need to back off, okay?

Thank you!

Hey, Jud. I got those animals

loaded up and ready to go.

Okay, Walt.

I sure appreciate you taking
