Pup Star Page #5

Synopsis: Welcome to a world where dogs can not only talk -- they can SING! Tiny, a cute little Yorkie pup with a big voice, gets a chance to audition for the singing competition for dogs, "Pup Star." After she earns a place in the finale, she's suddenly dog-napped! But with the help of her new friend, Charlie, a retired rock-and-roller, she escapes. Together they leave on an incredible journey through some of music's most iconic cities. They meet Big Ears - a soulful Bassett Hound who teaches Tiny to belt out the blues, Murray - a spiritual shaggy dog who helps her find her inner rhythm, and Emily Rose - a country-singing shepherd who helps her learn to sing from her heart. Most important of all, they all encourage Tiny to believe in herself and never give up on her dreams! Filled with all-new songs and the biggest cast of talking and singing canines ever assembled, Pup Star is an incredible family film filled with fun, music and heart.

Rise and shine, folks.

We're here.

Wake up, Mr. Charlie.

Huh?

I'm putting her down.

Hang on tight.

All right.

- Whoa.

- What...? Whoa!

That was so fun.

Oh, that was gnarly.

Who gave you a license to fly?

You actually don't need a license

to fly a balloon, old dude.

But there are two rules

to balloon flying.

Is one of them maybe,

stay in the basket?

Whoa, you got it, daddy-o.

All right, number two rule?

Let me guess. Have

a groovy time?

Whoa, pops, did anyone tell you

that you're, like, psychic?

Come on, kid.

Thank you, Mr. Murray. I'll be

sure to stay in the pocket.

Tiny, don't give up on your dream.

I'll be howling for you.

Arrivederci, buzzkill.

Once and for all,

the name's Charlie.

Roger that, Chucky.

We're going to see Emily-Rose?

I love her.

Watch it, or you'll make me

deaf in the other ear, too.

Stay put and try to

keep out of trouble.

Okay.

I can't just sit here with my

idol right inside those doors.

Whoa, hey.

I do apologize, old fella, but you

cannot be admitted through this door.

Owen, it's me, Charlie.

Charlie? For real?

It's a long story,

for another time.

I wanna hear it. Come on in.

Good luck, old feller.

Maybe just a peek.

Now, that's what

I'm talking about.

Mm.

You're just as beautiful as the

first day I laid eyes on you.

Charlie?

Hi, Emily-Rose.

Hey, y'all, this is Charlie.

And you remember Sally, my

manager and my best friend?

I didn't think I'd see

you again, Charlie.

Let's give y'all some privacy.

Em, you're on soon.

Okay, come on, people. Shoo.

It's Emily-Rose's cowboy hat.

I'm sure Miss Rose wouldn't

mind me trying it on.

I always knew you'd be a star.

Where did you disappear to?

You just vanished.

Hmm.

It's a little bit big.

Can't really see.

Oops.

I'm sorry.

Oh, my gosh, sounds

like my opener's on.

- That's not my opener.

- Oh, no. Not again.

- Is she with you?

- Yes... I mean no. Tiny's not with me.

Tiny? Y'all mean that sweet

little thing from Pup Star?

Y'all, let's give a warm Nashville

welcome to my special guest, Tiny.

- Miss Emily-Rose, I'm so sorry, I...

- It's all right, darling.

I heard you on Pup Star.

I know you can bring it.

Oh, Miss Rose, I wanna be

as good as you one day.

You're my idol.

Country music's all about

singing from your heart.

Why don't you help me out? You

know my hit "Broken Hearted"?

Of course. Every pup does.

- Y'all ready?

- Yeah!

They're gonna sing

"Broken Hearted."

This song goes out to anyone who's

ever lost someone they love.

Hit it, boys.

I remember when I first met you

You were like a dream

A dream come true

Every day was better

Than the day before

We were best friends

And a whole lot more

Then things got crazy

And I couldn't get back

First, I lost my way

Then I lost your track

Now I'm all alone

And I'll tell you true

- Every moment I spend

- Every moment I spend

- I spend missing you

- I spend missing you

You got this, Tiny.

Never knew that love could hurt

- So bad

- So bad

Never knew that I could feel so sad

- Why'd you leave me so broken-hearted?

- Why'd you leave me so broken-hearted?

- Why'd you leave me so sad and blue?

- Why'd you leave me so sad and blue?

Why won't you just come

- Why won't you just come

- Running back to me?

- Running back to me?

- Why'd you leave me so broken-hearted?

- Why'd you leave me so broken-hearted?

- Baby, anyone can plainly see

- Baby, anyone can plainly see

That I'll be broken-hearted

Till you come on home to me

Yeah!

Well done, sugar.

Y'all, let's give a

big hand for Tiny.

What part of "stay put"

translated into going on stage?

It was on accident, Mr. Charlie.

- Billie's Towing.

- Hello?

- Howdy.

- Yeah, we need a tow truck.

- I'm about 30 miles outside of Nashville.

- I'll send someone in the morning.

- Is that the earliest you can do?

- Afraid so.

Hey.

Uh...

Howdy, partner.

Namaste.

I refer to my being as Owen.

How may I be of service?

Well, we were

wondering if, uh...

Well, we're friends of Miss Rose.

Isn't she...? She's just great.

Is she playing tonight? We...

Gosh, we hope so.

Oh, humble apologies.

Emily-Rose is already on the road

to her performance in New Jersey.

New Jersey?

New Jersey?!

Whoa, friend. Hey, hey, come here.

Calm down.

Breathe. Release. Relax.

Good karma to you...

and blessings on your

onward and inward journey.

A gift.

Namaste.

- Good night, darling.

- Good night, Miss Rose.

Poor little pup's been through quite

an ordeal. She's plum tuckered out.

I can't believe you

saved these old duds.

I guess I never lost faith

that someday you'd come back.

Not that you deserve

her loyalty.

Sally, you promised.

You sure you should still

be performing? I mean,

shouldn't you be

conserving your energy?

I take it Big Ears told you?

It's not the illness that hurts.

It's the broken heart.

I'm sorry. Really I am.

Whatever happened to

forever come what may?

Living with no regrets?

I'm gonna get even with Bark

if that's what you mean.

Well, not exactly.

I'm Sadie McSpots bringing you

tonight's headlines with ETV.

Country Sensation Emily-Rose had a

surprise guest on stage with her tonight

in the form of Pup

Star finalist, Tiny.

I thought you took

care of Charlie.

We're hot on his tail. He may have gotten

this far, but he'll never get to New York.

You have my word. Kano

always gets his mark.

You said that last time.

Just get that dog.

Now I've lost my appetite.

- Hi.

- How y'all doing?

Well, we have a flat and

I don't have a spare.

Ooh.

Looks like more than a

flat tire, my friend.

Afraid you got yourself

a broken axle.

- Really?

- She's a cute little rig though.

Uh, thanks. You know how

long it'll take to fix?

I can have this puppy

fixed by tomorrow.

Tomorrow? Tiny will

be gone by then.

Tiny?

Do you know how to get to

the Nashville Music Hall?

Sure I do. Practice.

Whew, that's a good one. Now,

let's get y'all into Nashville.

I call shotgun.

Shotgun

I like the sound of that.

I said a shotgun

Whoo!

- Let's go.

- Okay, let's go.

That is the prettiest

barrette I've ever seen.

It was my girl, Lou's.

It's all I have from her.

You must miss her

something fierce.

Every day I think of her.

I'm going to win Pup

Star in her honor.

We gotta get Charlie to

give you some pointers.

Mr. Charlie? He hates singing.

Actually, Charlie has

one heck of a voice.

We have an old demo around here somewhere.

Sally, do you mind?

Oh.

I'll find my way back to you...

It's Mr. Charlie.

I'll be on my own

And Bark?

They used to be best friends.

Just two street dogs with

a passion to make music.

Charlie was an amazing

singer-songwriter.

That's when I met them.

I'd just won Pup Star, and

encouraged Charlie to try out,

but he thought it was too commercial.

He's pure rock 'n' roll.

One day, Charlie disappeared.

Bark went on Pup Star...

Hey.

My fur is cold

Turn that off.

If Tiny's gonna win Pup Star,

I thought she could learn
