Yeah, I guess I do.

I'm really glad you ended up

staying with me.

Glad we became pals.

I didn't mean what I said to your ma.

Not even a little bit.

Think you could forgive me?

It's okay, Gordon. I'm glad we're friends.

Me too.

There they are. Back it up.

It's those guys. Come on!

Get back there! Hold on!

-James, you okay?

-Yeah.

-Throw those boxes at them.

-All right!

Dive bomb! Depth charge!

-Watch it!

-I got it.

This mailman's gonna lose his job.

Where'd they go?

James, are you okay?

Look what I found.

Good idea. Come on.

Police!

Police!

Help! 91 1 !

Help!

That's gotta hurt.

Hurry, James!

-Hey, get over here!

-Give me the dog!

Where's the dog? Get over here.

Help me! Come on!

Come on, get off.

Help.

Run!

I'll save you from calling the cops.

We got one here.

Sit down over there.

And you, shut up.

Where is that mutt?

I thought he was with the FBl.

He escaped to be with you.

How touching. I'm all choked up.

Could you loan me a handkerchief

while we wait for the mutt?

Somebody help me here.

Get off of me!

Come here, you.

That's it.

Mr. Talia, what are you doing here?

I took a wild guess and figured

you two baboons would screw it up.

-Sit down, the both of youse.

-Sonny, the dog--

-It wasn't our fault.

-No?

I don't know if it's worth

the bullets for the two of you.

I gotta ask my accountant. Afterwards.

Excuse me, Mr. Mob Boss Guy, I wouldn't

make any sudden moves if I were you.

You wouldn't, you punk? Why not?

-I don't think Spot would like that.

-And who is Spot?

Spot!

Come on.

Come on.

1 1, the gun!

You take it.

-Spot!

-1 1 !

Kick him, James!

Run, James! Run!

No, not again! Come on!

No, not again.

-Hey, Spot.

-You're the greatest, Spot.

Hey, what do you got there, boy?

All right, get up!

Scratchy, scratchy, good dog!

Good boy. I love you.

Agent 1 1 ...

...come on.

His name's Spot. He's staying with us.

Open up your eyes, man.

This dog's got a lot going on inside.

He just wants to be a dog, with a family.

He's never had a family before,

and it's been really rough.

The FBI is his family.

The FBI is not a family. It's a job.

Come on. He's got a chance

to be happy now...

...with people that care about him.

I want to give him a home.

I won't let you mess that up.

I think it's time that Spot

decides what he wants.

I can't ask him. He's a dog.

Let's just see. Let's see what he wants.

Good boy, Spot.

What is it?

What do you want, boy?

What is it, boy?

I'll miss you, too.

Thanks for the ride.

Benny! What happened?

I don't believe anybody's dead.

Gordon and James took down

a mob boss and his henchmen--

Gordon gonna need some help.

We need a SWAT team, man.

Then you hit the guy in the head

with the meatballs?

That was funny.

Mom!

What's going on?

Oh, my God!

-Stephanie. You look great.

-We had the greatest time!

Gordon had me under his arm and then

two bad guys with guns chased us.

There were dogs everywhere,

and this is Spot, the dog Gordon gave me.

You look like you had a hard trip.

Maybe we should talk about this later.

If you ever come within 50 feet of my son,

I'll call the police.

Well, Stephanie, I live 25 feet away.

Those came in very handy.

I can explain.

Come on.

Hey there, music man.

I'm gonna catch you in the yard.

We're gonna settle this, man to man.

-What's up, G?

-Yo, what's up?

I'm all right. You know what, man?

-He's not such a bad dog after all.

-No, he's a good dog.

You really dug Stephanie, didn't you?

Now she just sees you

as unreliable, immature...

...irresponsible, fly-by-night,

bad kid-watching dude.

You want a hug, man?

No, I'd rather not. I'll just take the dog

to the park or something.

-But thanks, man.

-Go on and walk your dog.

All right. See you later.

Do you like it? There you go. Thanks.

Hey!

I'm sorry.

What? What's this?

What's up, buddy? Trying to jump me?

You two turning to a life of crime now?

-Here.

-Thanks.

So, you're a hero now.

James tells me you and Spot

saved him from the bad guys.

I actually thought he was exaggerating

because he likes you so much.

-It's really true. He's an FBI agent.

-I actually checked it out.

It sounds like you saved James' life, too.

Thank you.

Listen, l...

...l think maybe I might have jumped

to conclusions about you...

...and I wonder if you'd

like to give it another shot.

"It"? You mean us?

The two of us.

If you make it the three of us, I'm in.

Okay! The four of us. Sorry.

Come on.

-Go get your ball, Spot!

-Go get it! Go on!
