Marmaduke Page #6

Listen, I just wanted

to say something.

I wanted to say...

My bad.

I slipped off the seat.

That's okay, Thunder.

He's so funny.

I wanted to say

hanging out with you

these last few weeks,

which in dog years

feels like months,

it's like the first time in my

life I feel like I really belong.

Yeah! I'm having

a great time, too.

Look at him.

Land shrimps at

his beck and call.

That's it.

No, Mazie!

Stay, please.

Sit!

Yes, ma'am.

Yes, ma'am.

Hey, Mazie!

What's up?

You don't give a steaming pile about

us anymore, so cut the act, all right?

We took you in.

We were your friends.

And you just sit over here

and act like we're dirt.

What'd they put in your

kibble this morning?

You took her

on my dream date.

Dream date? What is she talking about?

How do you think

that makes me feel?

Bitter, party of one?

What's the big deal?

We were just

spit-balling ideas.

You'd think she'd be

thrilled I used one.

You don't get it,

do you?

She gave you Pig Cow,

she likes you.

At least, she did until

you turned your back on us

and became a big

phony-baloney sell-out.

Word.

That's really cute

and everything,

but I already

have a girlfriend.

A pedigree girlfriend.

So, that's it?

Yeah.

I don't hang out

with mutts anymore.

Ouch!

You're lucky

I had a favor to call in.

PETCO's gonna give us

another chance.

But they wanna see

a fully realized campaign

before they'll

cross-promote the roll-out.

No problem, I'll start

working on that immediately.

You'll start

working on it?

Little late for you to be

going solo, there, Buckeye.

I want you on my boat this

weekend, we'll work together.

This weekend, I can't. You have to.

I need to spend some

quality time with my family.

Tough.

I promised my wife.

All right, bring the family along.

They can relax while we work.

Okay, that'll be perfect.

Excellent.

Now, this is

sort of embarrassing,

but there are no dogs

allowed on the boat.

It's my wife's rule.

Quite frankly,

I think she's jealous.

Okay, we got the

life jacket, towels,

bathing suits,

sunglasses, sunscreen.

Brian's got his fins.

You're taking

the laptop?

You know,

just in case.

Guys, I'm really excited about

spending this weekend together.

Dad, please,

I'm begging you.

Let me go to my friend's

house so I can go the party.

Barb, it's a family trip and

you are coming, too. Let's go.

Here, get your snorkel.

Let's go, let's go.

Come on. I feel like

we're forgetting something.

We have everything, but

the furniture and the dog.

Look at him.

He's just sitting there!

I know.

You think he'll be

okay here alone?

I think he'll be fine.

He's got food and water

and I'm having Laura from

down the street look in on him.

Right. Right.

I mean, what's the worst that

can happen? He has a party?

Invites his

girlfriend over?

Yes and yes!

Party at the Duke's!

Rager, man! Yeah!

Jump! Jump! Jump!

I am a golden dog!

Canine-ball!

Looking good, Colby!

Sweet collar, Aurora!

Yes! Yes!

My boy, Topaz!

Marmaduke.

Chug it! Chug it!

Go, go, go!

Chug it, Shasta!

Ow!

Sorry, slipped off

the seat again!

That is

not cool, dude!

Hey, is this

your party, dude?

Yeah!

We're not worthy, we're not

worthy! We love you, man!

All right! Now it's a

party! Yeah, come on!

Who let the dogs out?

Pee-Wee,

hit the Crazy String!

You're a big hit,

Marmaduke!

Hey, is it just me, or is it

getting a little out of hand?

Everyone's having fun,

loosen up!

Yeah!

Of course, of course!

No, no, you're right.

Forget what I said.

Why is everyone always

having more fun than us?

Because they're not afraid to live?

And we suck at swimming?

Great! Okay, now

I'm catching a cold.

Come on, let's go.

What do

you smell, girl?

Trouble.

Duke! Duke! Duke!

Hey, dude,

get out of the trash!

Do I know you

from somewhere?

Me? Nope.

Never seen you before.

You sure?

That tail looks painful.

Of course I'm sure, man. I've

never even been to a dog park.

Oops.

It's so soothing!

Gordie, no!

No, not on Debbie's rug!

Whoa, whoa!

No, no! Hey! Not on the

couch! You raised in a barn?

No, not the stereo!

Phil's gonna kill me!

Looks like a great party.

Now, I'm sorry to interrupt.

What are you doing here?

I got a quick question.

Anyone recognize

this cute little fella?

The cat from the park

that Marmaduke hazed?

I recommend the guacamole.

It's dynamite.

Look at the tail.

Turns out he lives

here with Marmaduke.

Or is it Marma-fake?

First of all, you weren't

invited here, Bosco.

Leave now and you won't have a

problem. And take Whiskers with you.

We have

a "no cat" policy.

Say what?

Is that right? Then how do you

explain that picture over there?

Hey, it is that cat.

Yep, that's it.

That's the cat.

Let's

get out of here.

Wait! Wait!

What's going on? Where

you going? No, no, stay!

Total poser.

Where are you going?

Loser!

He's going, not us!

Party at the pier!

All right, let's go! Party!

Is it true, Marmaduke?

Only most of it.

You see, in the end,

pedigrees always win.

And that's the way

it'll always be.

Enjoy the rest of

your party, mutt.

Baby, come on.

Jezebel! He's a liar.

Come on, let's go.

Hey, Bosco,

wait up!

Jezebel, wait! I...

I thought

you were different.

What just happened?

I think it's called a colossal

fall from grace, hermano.

Oh!

Not to rub margarita salt in the wound,

but you kind of

deserved it.

Oh! What have I done?

Can't wait for the

next family boat trip.

It was a weekend

on a boat, okay?

It was a work-end, honey.

We had to finish

the presentation and...

What happened?

Marmaduke?

No.

Phil.

No!

I'm up, I'm up.

Where am I?

Marmaduke!

I'm up, I'm up.

Phil, thank God

you're here.

I had a party.

I was trying to be a big

shot... Off the couch!

I just invited

some friends

and then they invited

friends. It just got crazy!

Come here, now!

I'm sorry.

Phil, I really could

use a hug right now.

Bad dog!

Phil, no! Phil,

I'm trying to explain!

Phil, stop it.

Just give me

a chance to...

Phil, I said I was sorry.

The PETCO pitch.

Oh, Marmaduke.

Ooh!

Uh-oh, Daddy.

I don't care if it's raining,

I'm done. He can sleep outside.

Perfect, that will

solve everything.

We'll just leave him chained up in

the backyard for the next 10 years.

Or maybe

we give him away.

You did not

just say that.

He refuses to

listen to me!

It's just an option we haven't

explored yet, that's all I'm saying.

I don't understand

you sometimes.

Look around you, Deb.

He destroyed our home!

No, he didn't!

Our home is us. It's

you and me and the kids.

It doesn't matter

where we are.

This move did not work out

the way I hoped it would.

The only way this move

was ever gonna work out

is if we were

in it together.

You seem to have

lost sight of that.

Everything I do

is for us.

I worked my butt

off this weekend,

and once again,

that dog screwed it up!

He's a dog, Phil! He

doesn't know any better.

You want him to

sleep outside, fine.
