Look Who's Talking Now Page #7

I like wolves.

Let me out of here! Let me out!

Nice wolf.

Come on, come on.

Just leave the lady alone, unless

you want to get spayed the hard way.

He talks the talk,

but can he walk the walk?

Back off, this ain't your business.

The hell it ain't.

That's my family.

Remember when Mommy told you

the story about Peter and the wolf?

Well, there's the wolf. Where is

that crazy Peter when you need him?

Rocks!

Rocks! Oh, no! No!

Rip his throat out!

Ow! My tail!

Never mess with

a street dog, you wuss.

Rocks, you're hurt!

Look at your paws and your ears.

Your little ears. And your neck.

What did that animal do to you?

- It's nothing.

- Oh, sweetheart.

Sweetheart? Oh, baby!

Hey, I smell kid's dad.

Up this way.

The master?

But you're hurt.

Come back to the car.

- We gotta get them help.

- Then I'm going too.

- No, you're a house dog.

- I've still got my animal instincts.

All right. Go back

that way and get help.

All right. Which way?

- You gotta sniff for people.

- Sniff?

- Stick your nose in the air and suck.

- What?

Mommy's gotta go get the dogs

before they run away.

- Take care of yourself.

- Don't worry about me.

Sniff. No, that's snort.

Rocks! Here, boy!

Come on, guys!

- Where'd they go?

- Daphne! Here, girl!

Maybe they went to the bathroom.

They should have gone to

the bathroom before we left, right?

That's right.

Rocks, come back!

- Daphne!

- Let's get back in the car.

- He'll come back.

- Come back, girl.

I'll let you open a present.

Whichever one you want.

But Rocks is hurt!

Honey, he'll be fine.

Six, seven...

...eight and slow.

Quick, quick, slow.

Quick, quick, slow.

Good. Quick, quick, slow. Good.

Excellent. Good.

- See, you can dance.

- But how do we do it like this?

Well, you just do it the same way.

Slow.

Quick, quick, slow.

Quick, quick, slow.

I think I'm sniffing.

I'm inaling and I'm getting nothing.

I'm just an inbred washout.

I can't even smell... People!

I did it!

I can sniff! I am not a poodle,

I am a wild, marauding beast!

Move it! My masters need help.

The phone is out, huh?

You are unbelievable.

How dare you treat me like that?

Easy. You're a lousy human being.

Listen to me, James.

You are a very impressive man.

Over the past few months,

I have watched you bloom.

You deserve better than some...

...frumpy housewife who doesn't

have the resourcefulness...

...to find herself a decent job.

She's smart enough to find me here.

That's our dog!

- Hey, Rocks. All right.

- Hey, big guy. Hey, pal, give me paw.

- What happened?

- Not so rough.

Whoa! Is she in heat, or what?

If you walk out that door,

I will personally guarantee...

...that you never fly...

...for a reputable company

for the rest of your pathetic...

How do you like that?

That'll cool you off.

Rocks, let's go.

Good shot, huh?

Bye.

It's a hat.

It's a hat. Let's put it on.

I think it goes a different way.

Let's see. You look so pretty!

Look at that face!

Mikey, you want to open another one?

It's probably more clothes.

You're lucky we gave you

some boring things.

Otherwise, you'd be freezing

your tushy off right now.

Is that Daphne?

My God! My dog is a genius!

Way to go, Daphne!

No need for applause.

Just throw treats.

Come on, we're almost there.

Okay, Rocks, where are they?

Are we getting close?

Are we? Right.

What are you gonna say?

"They're just up the road...

...about a quarter of a mile,

just past the 7-11."

This way.

Are you gonna trust that dinky bulb

on your face or my nose? Come on!

All right. I hope you're right.

Mollie! Mollie!

Oh, God. Mollie!

They're gone? I can't believe it.

Look on the floor. They were here.

I left them here.

Come on in.

There are some cots

in the back you could use.

No, thank you. We can't sleep here.

We have to find my husband tonight.

No one's going anywhere tonight.

You hunker down here.

We'll go out in the morning.

We have to go.

This is Christmas Eve. We've gotta...

I'm sorry.

If it's any consolation,

I have cookies and eggnog.

You can help yourselves.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, you guys.

I didn't mean to get us stuck

out in the middle of nowhere...

...without our daddy. Sorry.

How's Santa gonna find us here?

Don't worry, he has special radar.

- Merry Christmas, Mom.

- Merry Christmas, Mom.

Merry Christmas.

- He was big and he jumped me.

- We'll find him.

Wait, wait. I think

I'm picking up on something here.

Fresh meat, fresh meat, fresh meat.

Yeah, that's the guy.

Damn.

- He bit me.

- He ain't so big.

He had friends.

The fur's gonna fly.

Run! I'll take care of these guys.

You take care of nobody, chump.

It's showtime.

- Your funeral.

- Your mama.

Kill!

Honey, let's go to bed now.

- I'm not sleepy.

- I know.

But you know what?

The sooner we go to sleep,

the sooner Christmas will come.

Santa?

Mom.

Come over here. Look.

I think it's Santa.

Hello?

Man.

Merry Christmas, honey.

Daddy!

- Daddy!

- Hi, Julie.

Where's Rocks?

You wouldn't believe it.

We ran into these wolves, right?

We actually got attacked by wolves.

- Oh, no.

- And Rocks came to my defence.

And one of the wolves chomped

on my beeper. Look at it.

And they all totally spazzed out.

Bunch of wimps.

Hey, kid, it's great to see you.

Oh, Rocks! How did you find us?

I just followed your scent.

And you smell beautiful, Daphne.

Oh, honey pie!

- Pumpkin butt.

- Not in front of the kids.

And, James, before the wolves...

...what were you doing?

Getting fired.

Thank God!

Mom, can Rocks stay with us now?

Honey, have a heart.

If not for Rocks,

we wouldn't be here together.

- I mean, I might even be dead.

- I know! That's why...

So, what if he's not

the smartest dog in the world?

Who cares if he can sit down?

I can sit down.

- Or if he can beg.

- Beg? Beg's easy. Look.

Who needs a beggar in the family?

Or lie down?

I mean, the point is,

he is still a great dog.

He stays.

- What?

- He stays.

Really?

Hey, Mike, did you hear that?

I'm gonna stay!

Hey, guys?

I'm picking up

something weird over here.

Hey, what is that? Come here.

Is that sleigh bells?

Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas!

- I told you he was real.

- I knew that.

- You did not.

- I always knew.

- You did not.

- Did too.

- She kissed you!

- I hate my sister.

- Get the cootie spray!

- Let's go to bed.

- I don't want to go to bed.

- This is so exciting!

Santa's right outside. He's right

above our head. Can't you hear it?
