Step Dogs Page #4

Synopsis: When humble rancher Rick Patterson marries movie star Sabrina Eastman, his son Josh (10) finds himself with a new step-sister, Lacey (14). Josh is an introverted boy who doesn't have a lot of confidence and Lacey is a spoiled Hollywood brat who's angry at Sabrina for not letting her have her own reality show. The two kids do not get along and neither do their respective dogs: Josh's dog Meatball is a scruffy, farm mutt who's laid-back and friendly; Cassie is a prim, spoiled, purse city dog who is not into country living. Rick and Sabrina go on their honeymoon for a couple of days, leaving Lacey and Josh in the care of Krystal, a hippie-trippy New Age neighbour. When Lacey sees some people outside the house one night, she starts to think someone is watching the house but Josh dismisses her fears. However, as Cassie quickly develops her 'country nose', she learns that Lacey wasn't wrong. She and Meatball discover that a pair of bumbling crooks, Louie and Terrance, are plotting to steal S

Cassie?

Eww. What's that smell?

It was an accident!

Cassie! Why do you stink?

And where's Josh?

Mmm. Delicious!

Wait!

Weren't you the only one

with a mustache?

Uhhh, no. Absolutely not.

Nope. Nope.

He just, he has that kind of face.

That kind of face that people think

he doesn't have a mustache?

Yep, yep exactly.

I was born with this mustache.

Krystal! Krystal! Help!

Cassie stinks!

I better go.

Thanks for the hot chocolate!

It's delicious!

Delicious.

Oh no.

She got sprayed but a skunk.

What are we going to do?

She stinks.

I cannot have a stinky dog.

Okay.

Halfway to the van.

Uh oh.

Big dog.

Big doggie.

Meatball! Get back here!

Okay. Okay.

Big doggie!

Meatball! Settle down.

Roll up the window!

Roll up the window!

Okay I'm going to roll up the window.

Alright alright.

Let's get out of here before

she sees me.

Go!

I think my mustache is

making it furious!!

Bad dog! You get back here!

Who are those guys?

Gas company.

I do smell like a bathroom

on a shrimp boat.

Tomato juice?

Works like a charm!

Eww!

Hey hey woah woah now!

Don't you need some of that

for my meatballs?

Where were you!

You were supposed to be helping me!

I got kind of bored listening

to you talk about yourself.

Well you could have at least

helped with the work.

Hey Lacey!

Where's Sabrina?

She's at the front desk.

I got a computer.

What's wrong?

Well, Josh tricked me

into shoveling the snow

while he was doing whoknowswhat.

Cassie got sprayed by a skunk.

I'm bored stiff and there were strangers

sneaking around outside last night.

Honey, calm down, alright?

Let me talk to Krystal.

Ugh. Fine.

I'm sorry they're being such a handful.

It's alright.

They're just kids.

How's the honeymoon?

Uh, not good.

Stuck in a Minneapolis airport hotel.

There's a storm.

Oh dear, sorry to hear that.

Hi!

Hey! How are the kids?

They've been better.

Oh. Uh.

Well, I have an idea.

I mean, our honeymoon

is pretty much wrecked

so I mean, why don't we just come early?

Alright.

What, no no, don't come home.

Oh, that's just great.

Oh that's just great.

Great.

It's over. We're done.

Dunzo.

Now I'm going to have to go

back working for my Dad

painting unicorn figurines.

This is just great.

Yeah.

The concierge can book

us a train to Weyburn

tomorrow morning.

That's about 60km away.

I'll pick you up.

Oh, okay. Oh.

That's good! That's good!

We are back in the game!

We're back in the game!

Yes!

Great.

Train gets in at 11.

Okay I'll bring the kids.

I have a better idea.

Why don't you leave them and

then we could surprise them

when we get back.

No, no.

No.

Please take the kids.

Just take the kids.

Aww, that'll be such a nice

surprise for them.

See you tomorrow!

Okay bye!

Hey hey hey.

Relax!

We'll get the kids out of

the house no problem!

Alright how do you suppose we do that?

Lure them out with candy?

That was my Plan B!

But don't worry.

I have a Plan A.

Uhh...

Okay. Where is it?

Where's what?

You know what I mean.

My watch.

I have no idea what

you're talking about.

Lacey.

The watch that was in my room.

Give it back.

I'm sorry Josh, but I've never

seen you wearing a watch.

Yes you did, last night when

you woke me up.

What kind of a watch is it?

It's a watch, okay!

You know what a watch looks like?

I'm sorry Josh but if you don't

give me a detailed description,

I really can't help you.

Look, I'm no squealer, but if

you don't give the watch back

I'm going to tell Krystal you stole it.

Stole what?

My watch!

What's it look like again?

You're a real jerk.

You know that?

Well this has gone on long enough.

Fun's over, sister.

Cassie, where are you going with that?

Get back here! Bad dog!

Cassie! Come on!

That a girl.

See, I knew you'd come around.

Woah.

What is this?

What's all the barking about?

Umm, Cassie found your watch.

Why'd you take it?

I didn't!

I... I was mad at you.

I wanted to make you look stupid okay.

I wanted to force you into admitting

that you wear a girl's watch.

Why would you want to make me

look stupid?

And that wasn't just a

girl's watch, okay?

That was my Mom's watch.

Oh. Josh, I'm sorry.

I really didn't know.

Awkwaaard.

Why are you always on that thing?

Talking to my friends.

Last time I checked,

talking actually involved

speaking to one another.

You should try it sometime.

Is that your Mom?

No, just some random lady.

Came with the frame.

I'm kidding.

That's my Mom.

Oh, she's really pretty.

Yeah. I know.

Look.

I know it seems silly to

be keeping her watch

but it reminds me of her.

I wear these every day.

No matter what I'm doing

or where I'm going.

It always have them with me.

Parent's wedding rings?

No. It came with the necklace.

Can I ask you something?

Yeah sure.

Why are you so hard on Sabrina?

When I first went to live with her,

she acted like my cool Aunt Sabrina.

She used to take me

theme parks all the time.

She'd buy me anything I wanted.

Once she rented a whole

entire movie theater

just so we could be the only ones there.

Cool.

Yeah!

But then one day she stopped

asking like my aunt

and started acting like my Mom.

Well, she kind of is your Mom.

Yeah I know, but...

Maybe she was spoiling you

to take your mind off your parents.

Yeah, I never thought of it that way.

Do you think they're still fighting?

No, I think they'll be fine.

You know, that was a good thing you did.

Thanks, meathead.

Don't mention it, furball.

Alright.

You think this will work?

Of course it's going to work.

I pulled the same trick

when I was a kid.

I wound up in juvenile hall.

But yeah this time it's going to work.

I'm not going to wind up

in juvenile hall.

Wait does juvenile hall

even exist anymore?

Of course it exists.

Where do you think they

send the bad kids?

Fat camp.

I told you I was a chunky child!

I was not a fat child!

Well, you were a little fat.

A little bit. A little fat.

Take it easy.

Now, get to work.

Let's go.

Come on.

Now.

Alright.

Did you light the fuse?

Of course I lit the fuse!

I've lit a lot of fuses in my day.

Well, go check it.

Maybe it's just a slow burner.

Okay you're a slow burner.

Now get out of here.

Okay.

That's probably not good.

Louie?

Louie!

Did it work?

Uh yes, Sheriff's department?

Yes, hello.

I would like to report

a blownup mailbox

on Buckboard Avenue.

WHAT DO YOU SAY?

Shh!

Sorry about that.

Yes, as a matter of fact I did.

I saw that boy from the

Patterson household

lurking around.

I CAN'T HEAR YOU.

I THINK THE EXPLOSION MESSED

UP MY HEARING.

Honestly, could you please shut up!

WHAT?

Shut up!

Sorry about that.

OH, YOU'RE ON THE PHONE.

Wow.

Oh no no, that's nothing,

don't worry about that.

That's fine.

Anyways, uh, yes!

Have a wonderful day.

No, no.

It's citizen's duty isn't it?

Yes.

No, you have a nice voice too.

Hey Krystal!

Hey there.

How's everyone?

Kind of hungry.

Starving!

Good.

I'm going to make a delicious
