The Dog Who Saved Summer Page #8

Synopsis: School's out for summer... but not at the Bannister house! When their beloved dog Zeus (voiced by Mario Lopez) destroys a party planned by Belinda (Elisa Donovan), Grandma (Mindy Sterling) suggests they send him to obedience school. Things start off on the wrong paw when Zeus's owner George (Gary Valentine) runs afoul of the school's no-nonsense instructor Vernon (Martin Kove) and Zeus manages to fail every lesson. To make matters worse, Vernon's K-9 assistant, Apollo (voiced by William Zabka) makes class no dog-gone fun. With Zeus failing to improve, the Bannister children Kara and Ben (Francesca Capaldi and Cole Jensen) fear that the pound may be Zeus's next stop. Desperate to turn things around, Zeus enlists the help of a janitor, Mr. Lee (James Hong), who shares his unique training methods. Will Zeus' newfound skills help him win top dog at the school's showcase and foil a trio of bumbling thieves (Dean Cain, Patrick Muldoon, Joey "Coco" Diaz) determined to make this a bummer summe

I never realized.

All right, you got it?

You got it now.

Get all pumped up.

Heart and spirit, here we go.

Let's begin!

Pick up the pace.

Come on.

No, not fast enough.

Do it again.

Weave, weave.

Come on, come on, come on.

Throw away, throw away,

throw away. Atta boy!

Okay, boy.

Hut, hut, hut.

Come on. You're gonna

have to do better than that

if you're gonna beat Zeus.

( Muttering )

This is steep.

I've got the pedal to the metal.

Come on. You can do

better than that. Faster.

( Imitating karate sounds )

Mr. Lee:

Up. Down. Up.

Come on. Up. Down.

Tunnel, tunnel.

Yeah. Whoa, very good.

One more time.

Come on.

Scare rat.

( Imitating karate sounds )

- Keep going.

- This is heavy.

Wonderful.

Atta boy.

Let's go. Teeter totter.

Yeah.

Okay, now that'll win.

That'll beat Zeus.

I don't like Zeus.

Come on. Let's go.

(Zeus growls )

That's it. Faster.

Faster.

Come on, faster.

That's it. Good dog.

Belinda:
Come on, sweetie.

Hurry up.

We have to drop off

Riley at Grandma's on the way.

Okay, Zeus.

Big day today, buddy.

I hope you're ready.

( Music playing )

Uh-huh, uh-huh.

And then right before the nap,

he needs a bottle,

a warm bottle.

Well, not too warm,

but, you know, warm.

Yes, and then he also loves

to sleep with the little bear,

the one with the floppy ears,

not the long ears.

No, floppy. Not long.

And then also he wants that blanket

with the little tags on it.

He likes to have it

right on the side...

Grandma:
This isn't my first

rodeo, you know?

No, Riley and I

are gonna be fine.

Aren't you, Riley?

Eve:
Bring that little food

dropper over here.

I know. I'm sorry.

I'm just...

I guess I'm just so nervous.

I keep remembering

the last party

with all the presents

falling in the pool.

Well, did you bring

your scuba gear?

- Not funny, Mom.

- Don't worry about it.

I've got all the kids

over from the troop

making beaded necklaces.

Aren't we, kids?

Kids:

Yeah!

What is she doing here?

Oh, she's...

Waiting for me to fail

so she can pick up the pieces.

Mom, I've gotta go.

Give Riley a kiss for me.

Talk to you later.

I love you. Bye-bye.

Oh, yes.

What do you think?

What do you think about that?

( sniffs )

Uh-oh! Whoa, did somebody give

Grandma a present?

Oh, yes, you did.

Hey, where is your brother?

Oh, um... I think he said

he had to go to the bathroom.

Right now?

This is Agent Bannister

reporting to command.

I've reached the objective.

Stand by for recon.

Ladies and gentlemen,

the moment we've all

been waiting for.

The man, the myth,

the legend, Mr. Vernon.

Hello, everyone.

Thank you all for being here

on this special day.

Our canines can now show you

what they have learned

from our new program.

And as a special treat,

five-time champion Apollo

has returned from retirement

to challenge the new class.

- Apollo.

- You might as well

- give up that collar now.

- Stay gold, pony boy.

All right, our first

challenge will be the tunnel.

Apollo, tunnel.

Military coming through.

That's my boy.

Just like training

for Desert Paw.

Show off.

- Colby.

- Woman:
Come on, Colby.

Colby:
I can see the light

at the end of the tunnel.

Whee-hee-hee!

- Zeus.

- Mr. Lee, which skill is this again?

Scare the rat.

Scare rat.

- Come on, buddy.

- Zeus:
Here we go.

- Yeah. I did it.

- George:
Yeah!

How did you pull

that one out, Bannister?

Well, folks. It's been

a heck of a contest here.

We're gonna move on

to the teeter totter. Buster.

Come on. Come on.

Good job, Buster.

Apollo.

- He's just the best.

- Yes, he is.

Zeus.

(chuckles ) He doesn't

even know how to do it.

( Mouthing )

Plant the paw.

Plant the paw.

George:

Atta boy.

Kara:

Whoo! Go, Zeus.

Shall we move on?

( Cheering )

Jump!

Vernon:

Relish, fail.

( Mouthing )

Throw away.

Stewey.

We don't have all day.

What are you doing?

That's odd.

Where is he going?

And now, folks, we'll move on

to the speak command.

( Barking )

Hey, what are you guys

all barking at?

- Buster.

- Buster:
Sorry.

- Fail.

- Buster:
Can we go home now?

All right, give me the survey.

Give him the survey.

Stewey, really?

I didn't have a napkin.

He's a messy eater.

All right,

this looks good right here.

Plug this in.

- You stand watch.

- Aye, aye, captain.

What did I tell you

about calling me that?

I forget.

Let me know

when we're good to go.

- Fred:
Good to go.

- ( buzzing )

(faint buzzing )

Ted, Ted, Ted, I could do this.

- No.

- Come on, Ted. Let me do it.

Fine, but don't do

anything stupid.

Have I ever let you down before?

Do not make me answer

that question.

Watch this.

- Ah!

- Ted:
No, no!

- Fred:
Way to go, Stewey.

- Ted:
You can do this, Stewey.

Uh-oh.

- What is it?

- I thought I heard something.

I'll go check it out.

Hey, what are you

doing down here?

I'm, uh, stealing diamonds.

Uh-uh.

- Oh, uh-huh.

- You better watch it.

I was Bruce Lee's teacher.

( Imitates karate noises )

Oh...

(chuckles)

Chuck Norris.

Well, folks, our final

challenge is the weave poles.

And it seems that we only have

two dogs left.

Something"; wrong.

Mr. Lee wouldn't miss this.

I think he might be in trouble.

Okay, buddy.

We've made it this far.

Right? Ready for

the next trick?

Sorry, George,

but I've got to save Mr. Lee.

Mommy, where is Zeus going?

I don't know, sweetheart.

- Zeus!

- Bannister.

You walk off

and you are disqualified.

What?

Belinda, stop Zeus.

Let's go, hon.

That dog isn't

getting away that easily.

You go bring him back.

And Apollo, if you get

a chance to finish him off,

- sweep the paw.

- But, sir?

- You have a problem with that?

- No, sir.

I'll get that coward.

( Mocking )

Zeus.

Where is that dog?

Zeusy!

Let's go.

You can do this, Stewey.

Careful. Careful.

Whoa! Whoa!

I can't do this.

I can't do this.

- You can do this. Come on.

- Pull it together, Stewey.

I can do it.

- I don't think he can do it.

- I don't think so either.

( Farts )

Oh...

Good job.

- Good job, Stewey.

- Way to go, Stewey.

Mr. Lee,

are you down here?

Mr. Lee?

My canine senses

are detecting something.

You can run

but you can't hide, Zeus.

Fred:
I never knew

he was so agile.

Good job, Stewey.

Go, Stewey. Do it, do it.

Ted and Fred?

You have gotta be kidding me.

Apollo:
What's going on?

What are you doing?

- Apollo?

- I knew you were a coward,

but I never figured you

for a quitter.

You think I came down to quit?

I came down here

because it looks like we've

got a crime in progress.

- What did you see?

- Two perps and it looks like

they're trying to steal something

on the other side of that wall.

Maybe I was wrong

about you, Zeus.

You might just be

a K-9 police dog after all.

- What do you say?

- Wanna lend me a paw?

A joint task force...

The police and the US government?

- I love it.

- You find Mr. Lee.

I'm going to go save summer.

Mr. Lee has to have

something I can use.

This will work.

Apollo:
Mr. Lee,
