I'm gonna ask this lady a question.

Hey, how's it going?

Starchild?

"Starchild." Are you serious?

You can have anything you want, Spot.

What about this one?

No.

Hello.

Cat got your tongue?

Now, where did this mutt go?

Hey, kid! Where's that dog?

Be careful. There's piranha in there.

You get the guns.

Let's get that mutt.

No! I'm not paying for this!

Spot, are you okay?

"Can cause paralysis"?

I'll go the other way.

Get this thing off me!

Help!

Hey, kid.

How you doing?

Want to help your Uncle Gino

find the doggy?

Hey!

Whoa. Help!

Help!

You go that way.

That's it. It's over.

My legs!

Gordon? It's me again.

I'm just calling to check in.

Are you there? I'm sure everything's fine.

If you want to, call me on my cell phone.

Okay, I'll talk to you soon. Bye.

Stop!

-So Seattle, huh?

-Yeah.

Don't worry. We have lots of room.

-We'll get you there.

-We'll go straight there?

We're not stopping for nothing.

Well, there you are.

Oh, you're gonna be really comfy in there.

Just don't make any fast movements.

What's that smell?

Hello?

Hi, Mr. Zebra.

-I gotta report an attempted murder.

-Yo, Granger!

You're catching!

This is just perfect.

So where did this happen?

At the pet store. There were two of them.

One was a real big guy,

looking like Pavarotti.

I'm telling you, it was a hit.

A hit? And you were the target?

Dude, not me, the dog.

-The dog?

-Spot was incredible.

He got the bad guys.

It was amazing.

He just took those two guys out.

It's weird, I always thought

he was retarded.

You know what? lf you're asking me...

...you're the one who is retarded.

Dude, he's not retarded. You are.

Yeah? Well....

-Know what I'm thinking?

-What?

When Stephanie returns, I'll tell her...

...not to leave James with a nut who

gets her kid a dog while she's away.

Actually, that's not his dog at all.

That's "Satan's dog."

Let's leave. We don't need these idiots.

Oh, man.

Come on, Spot.

Looks like Agent Sharp

skipped the country.

She did not.

We got ahold of all her credit card records.

She bought a one-way ticket to Belize.

She never made the airport.

And let me tell you something,

if you don't get that dog...

...you're gonna make the airport.

But as part of a runway!

We're dead. We are so dead.

You know, I never saw Godfather Ill.

I heard it wasn't as good as the first two.

I thought we had more time, Gino.

Listen to me.

Take a rest. We're gonna find the dog.

Hey, Gino, I didn't think

they let you out of Jersey.

-What are you doing here?

-What do you say, Tommy?

I just got a little business to finish up.

That's good. Great.

I can't stand that clown.

He's got no respect.

-Hello.

-Yeah, I know who's got your dog.

My neighbor. The guy's a freak.

They got the dog. We got the dog.

The bureau appreciates your help.

A canine agent disappeared

in this area a few days ago.

We are intent on finding that dog.

What is it with the dogs all of a sudden?

I had this idiot in who said the Mafia

put a contract out on his dog.

That's Agent 1 1 .

Yeah, and?

He's my partner, you greasy-haired reptile.

Tell me everything.

I can't sleep.

-Why not, buddy?

-I had a bad dream.

About what?

Charizard was trying to burn me,

and I had to run away.

-Who's Charizard?

-A Pokmon.

I thought Pikachu was the Pokmon.

There's all different Pokmon.

-And they all have different powers?

-You catch on fast.

And are they named

after what they sort of do?

Kind of.

Okay, so if you were a Pokmon,

you'd be Snotty-nose-achu.

You would be Stinky-feet-achu.

And you'd be Fart-in-bed-achu.

It wasn't me.

It wasn't me, either.

Wait, if it wasn't me, and it wasn't you....

Do you like my mom?

Yeah. I really do.

Why don't you marry her?

Well, because, you know,

marriage is a big step.

You really gotta know someone

before you do something like that.

You'd be fun for a dad.

You think so?

Thanks.

Hold it.

I think this is the block.

Yeah, let's go.

And they lived happily ever after...

...because they won the lottery

and moved to Hawaii.

There you go.

Don't hog all the blankets.

I am so glad this is off our plate.

Yeah, you look like you could use

something off your plate.

Have you seen any of these men?

Yeah. These two.

They destroyed the pet store.

If there's any cost for the damages,

they should be held responsible.

You're very lucky, Mr. Smith.

These men are extremely dangerous.

You should be all right now that

Agent 1 1 is with us. 1 1, let's go!

What?

-No.

-Spot's leaving?

I promised the dog to the kid.

You can't take the dog.

Don't take the dog. Look at the kid.

-You can't take him.

-Agent 1 1 is U.S. Government property.

But you can't take him.

Come on, James.

Spot doesn't belong to us.

I think he has to go back with these guys.

Here we go, boy.

He doesn't like that.

Come on.

Don't go, Spot.

No!

-You're gonna have to eat something.

-I'm not eating till Spot comes back.

Well, Spot's not coming back.

That's life. Get used to it.

Let's see.

You lost the dog.

The boy wants you dead.

No way you're getting jiggy

with his mama.

That makes you a single man again,

brother. Give it to me up top.

Okay, leave me hanging. Okay, cool.

I'll remember that.

I need you to eat.

1 1, eat.

You're gonna be stupid

and not do anything?

I am doing something. I'm moving on.

You should, too. Listen, James,

don't get attached to things.

-It only ends up messing with you.

-But he's our dog.

No, he's a government official,

much like myself.

No, he's our dog and he loves us.

Know what? You're just a kid.

You know nothing. You're irrational!

No, you're stupid!

-Hello!

-Gordon, hi.

Oh, it's you.

You won't believe what I've been through,

but I'm really close now.

Every time you call,

you got some lame excuse.

What's it this time?

Dog ate your homework?

Are you okay? ls everything all right?

And always with the questions.

All I want to know is,

when are you gonna be here?

Gordon, what happened?

I will not be treated

like an irresponsible idiot.

You're the irresponsible one.

It's your fault!

I shouldn't be watching a dog...

...and I sure don't need some kid in my life.

Stop!

You're taking me to my kid, now!

Agent 1 1 ! He's escaped.

Agent 1 1 !

All right, truce. Come out here.

Come on, this isn't funny.

My kid. I lost my kid.

Keep your mouth shut.

This is suicide.

How in the hell could you guys

let Agent 1 1 escape?

You'll all be reprimanded.

Where you going?

To find my dog,

and I know exactly where he went.

Back to those two.

I thought you were dead. Get in the truck.

-Come on, buddy, get in the truck.

-I'm gonna find Spot.

How you gonna find him?

Think you're a detective?

Why did you run away?

What do you care? You don't want me.

What?

No, I didn't mean it like that.

Why did you say that to my mom?

You know, I was just scared.

And sometimes, when people get upset...

...it comes out all messed up.

Do you miss Spot?
