It's adoption day!
What?! Hey, pal.
It's dining room day, Owen.
Let's see that calendar.
Didn't you just start that job?
Ha ha!
He's right.
Exactly three months today, he's been walkin' those dogs.
Not one problem.
I've already got mine picked out at the shelter.
Good for you, o. Great job.
Yeah, that's great. Terrific.
Listen, can we talk for a second?
Don't you think that it makes more sense
To wait until after we move to the new place
Before we get the dog?
I'm just thinking of the dog.
That way, he won't have to relearn a new house,
And a new neighborhood, and all that other...Newness.
We had a deal, mom.
We did. We sure...We sure... We absolutely did.
"the best way to achieve your goals, Owen,
"is to make a plan, work hard,
And always keep your eyes on the prize."
That's an exact quote, isn't it?
I want my prize.
So, shall we all go to the shelter at noon?
Yes! Yes!
This'll be great for him, right?
Yeah, yeah.
A little buddy is just what he needs.
I better put down some newspaper.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
( humming )
Morning, miss Ryan.
Mr. Baker.
Barbara Ann had a restless night.
Poor dear. I don't want her overexerting.
Keep her on the grass.
The hot pavement is far too harsh on her delicate paws.
Okey-doke.
( barks )
Hold still, Wilson.
It's only me.
Owen, he had the runs last night.
Can you keep an eye on that for me,
And let me know if things turn solid?
No problem.
Be good now, Nelly,
And don't let the big dogs step on you.
I'll watch out for her, Mr. Leone.
I know you will.
Bye. Ciao.
You want it, Shep? You can't have it.
Psych! Yeah, you want it?
Psych!
Hey, Connie, here comes your boyfriend,
Direct from weirdo-ville. Nice.
Cut it out.
Good morning, Franky, Fred.
Good morning, loser.
Gimme a kiss good-bye, Shep. Gimme a kiss.
You comin' along today?
We're going to the pool.
Duh, dog boy.
I smell poop.
I smell it, too.
Oh, Wilson!
He's touching it.
Nasty.
At least it's solid.
Connie, let's go.
Gross. What a freak.
Why does he wear those stupid clothes?
Aren't you getting your new dog today?
Yeah, so I guess I won't be seeing you around much anymore.
But you're still gonna walk Shep, aren't you?
Yeah. I'll see you then, but otherwise...
I'm gonna be busy with training him and bonding with him,
And all that.
Hey, Connie, move your butt.
Yeah, move it.
Have a fun day at the pool.
This is bob at tri county.
Go ahead, bob.
I'm on a search and retrieval for a wild wirehair.
Got an APB out on a wild wirehair.
Could be coyote-- not rulin' out coyote.
Could be another mad dachshund.
Another mad dachshund.
( honks horn )
Where did you come from?
( loud, high-pitched, continuous bark )
Wait! Stop!
( growls )
Gotcha!
So Precious! Look at you!
You are so pretty.
There's something wrong with him.
He's mean!
He didn't have to do that. Oh, my God!
Give me some kisses.
I want some love, too.
Honey, you're biting.
Somebody's about to meet their new best friend.
Are you sure this is the one, Owen?
It's your call, o.
( high-pitched bark )
Wow! Now he's interesting.
Oh, little prisoner.
There's the man.
Tell your folks about your scuffle this morning?
What?
Owen helped me nab that tough mutt off the street.
Tough? Is he stray?
There are no tags around his neck.
Just that funny little rock.
Checked out all right health-wise, though.
He seems worried about something.
Yeah, I'd be worried, too. Think his days are numbered.
What do you mean?
Attitude.
Not makin' him very popular around here.
Attitude? Yeah.
You wouldn't put him to sleep, though, right?
Well...
( phone rings )
Hubble, slow down.
Heel, Hubble. Whoa!
Hubble! Slow down. Heel. Hubble, no!
Easy, boy. Easy.
Hi, Mr. Leone.
Hello there. And who is this?
His name's Hubble. I just got him.
Hello, Hubble.
No, Hubble.
That's all right.
I'm a stranger to him.
Where's Nelly?
She likes to check out the headlines.
Easy! Sorry.
I've still got to train him.
Good luck with that.
( moans )
Okay, Hubble.
First day, do your best.
Sit.
Good boy.
Good boy, Hubble.
All right.
Stay.
He's a bright one.
Okay, Mr. Genius.
How about...Roll over?
Play dead.
But he's really, really smart, dad.
Yeah, that's terrific.
No, I mean he's too smart.
O., I hate to break this to you,
But everyone thinks they've got
The smartest dog in the universe.
"love and loyalty."
( Hubble growls )
Shh.
It's okay, Hub.
All right, we'll take our time.
( barking )
( door squeaks )
Oh, no, you don't.
Here, boy. Here.
Hubble.
On sale this week at Anderson's,
Fresh, ripe peaches.
We're your power station KRZY...
Crazy for classic rock!
I tell you, miracles...
Miracles are happenin' every day in our world.
Here, boy.
Here?
That was a weird dream.
More like a nightmare, if you ask me.
Testing, one, two, three. Testing.
Don't give me that look.
No, not that look either.
Stay! Stay!
You hear me?
I...
Are you sure?
Speak!
Doggone it! How could I let this happen?
Don't be afraid.
I am canid 3942.
Honey!
Was that you? You better be up and at 'em.
Don't say a word.
You can't forget the other dogs just because you've got Hubble.
Bless you! Somebody's got a wittle cold.
Poor baby.
Hop to it, o.
Can we tie her up out back, please?
Did you just learn how to talk?
Here come the questions.
Let's just say your hearing suddenly got a lot better.
Oh, man. How is this even possible?
Oh, boy.
Look, I don't have time to train you right now.
Just take me to your leaders.
Leaders?
The dogs who walk you.
I walk them.
Sure, you do.
I'll get to the bottom of this.
Wait. Am I the only one who can understand you?
Okay, it was a big mistake-- wasn't meant to happen.
You can't tell anyone about this ever.
Got it? This was a major boo-boo.
Nobody'd believe me, anyway.
It's not like dogs start talking all of a sudden.
Code red!
The kid can hear us talking.
Watch out, shorty.
Coming through.
You can really understand me?
Right now, you understand what I'm saying to you?
Yep.
Can I have a cookie?
No, wait. Ten cookies?
No, can I have twenty cookies? Twenty cookies?
Be a pal, kid. Loosen my collar a notch.
I got a foof in my chach.
Owen, honey, can we just talk about how pretty I am?
Oh, oh, shoot!
I'm so nervous, I forgot what I was gonna say.
I know what I wanna ask.
Can you teach us how to work a stinkin' can opener?!
Enough! Collect yourselves.
I knew he was trouble the minute I sniffed his butt.
Oh, my!
I have come here on an important mission from the home star,
And I expect full cooperation.
Hold it. Where are you from?
Where we all came from-- the home star.
Unbelievable.
It's true.
What are you talking about?
Thousands of years ago,
Dogs arrived here from the home star
To colonize and dominate the planet.
All earth dogs are descended from those dogs.
What home star?!
This is why dogs and people shouldn't talk.
Dude, you never heard of the dog star?
It's called Sirius.
Wait, you know about this, too?
My grandma used to tell me stories.
We've all heard them.
My great-grandfather told me
He had to pass through Uranus to get here.
You expect me to believe that there's a planet out there
Made up of only dogs?
We don't expect much from your species.
Now go outside and play so we can do our business.
Go play, boy.
I don't have to go outside.
Pardon me, but you were saying something about a mission?
Right. Thank you.
I have been sent here to file a report on earth dogs.
Like a report card?
Yes. Now, sit!
I will observe your lives,
And then grade you on how you have upheld
The Sirius code of dignity and dominance.
We're going to get graded?
Yes, and I'll be submitting my report
Directly to our most noble pack leader--
The greater Dane.
What? The top dog?!
Canine-in-chief.
I need to pee-pee.
The greater Dane is upset by rumors
Floating around the galaxy recently
That earth dogs may have strayed from their original mission,
And lost control of this planet.
There's even one crazy rumor we've heard
That claims humans keep dogs as pets.
Barbara Ann: Oh, my!
That is crazy. Isn't that crazy?
Super crazy.
Who would say a crazy thing like that?
Hold on!
You don't honestly think that dogs are in charge...
Nelly: Can we get some air?
I feel a little woozy.
See this?
I bought it.
I clip it on you because you are my dog.
I own you.
Pay no attention to the dude in the red suit.
The idea of dogs being in charge is so...Far-fetched.
Fetch?!
I teach you, and I tell you
What you can and can't do. Understand?
Dude, I'm wide open!
Throw the ball.
Throw the frisbee. Throw the stick.
Throw something, player!
Yeah, I know what you think,
But that's not the way it works here.
Baker!
Who are you talkin' to? Yeah.
Just the dogs.
You're talkin' like they're people.
You've got to... To train them.
Let's just go.
Connie, I wouldn't let my dog
Hang out with that mental case.
What a mental.
That's it! You guys are makin' me look nuts.
All this stupid dog star talk, the greater Dane.
I want proof.
Show me proof.
Works for me.
You know how to drive?
He knows how to crash.
I'm an excellent pilot.
There happened to be some radical wind currents
The other night.
Hold on. What's this thing?
Be careful. That's my woofer.
A communicator. Oh.
It got slightly damaged in the landing.
Slightly?!
Hey, let's see you fly one.
This is what you were using last night?
Yes, when it short-circuited,
And you were caught in the current.
Don't remind me.
Now I'm talking to you, but I can't contact Sirius.
I bet I could fix this.
You keep your paws off my woofer, mister.
No, really. I'm good with this kind of stuff.
I mean, let's face it.
I can't make it any worse.
Fine. That'll be your job.
As for the rest of you, tomorrow I start grading.
I want to see all the ways you've taken control
Of people and the planet.
Absolutely.
No problem!
We'll show ya!
You guys are so busted.
Wilson: See ya tomorrow!
Aha!
Whoops.
If you don't know what you're doing...
Chill out, Hubble.
My name is canid 3942.
I'm not calling you by some number.
I named you Hubble.
Ah, when did these human-dog relationships start anyway?
Thousands of years ago.
( Hubble whining )
Why on earth would we do that?
Believe it or not, dogs here are called "man's best friend."
Friend? Dogs don't need friends.
Everybody needs friends.
Why?
I'm probably not the best person to ask,
Considering I don't have any.
Hey! You two havin' a chat in here?
Yeah. Ha ha.
Here's a boy.
Whoa, careful!
Knock this over, we'll all get pretty goofy in here.
Don't play around with this stuff.
Your mom and I will be finishing up in the dining room tomorrow.
Hmm.
Then it's moving time again.
You know, I think this house is my favorite so far.
Me, too.
You okay?
I'm okay.
Okey-dokey then.
All right, buddy, sleep tight.
You, too, stubborn Hubble.
( growls and barks )
Oh, hey! I think he understood me.
If one more person wipes their hands on me...
( toilet flushes )
Did you...
I drank out of that bowl.
All I'm asking is for a little respect.
Sheesh!
( hums )
Why do you do that?
Because I need sleep.
No. Why do you turn around like that?
Enough with the questions. We've got a big day tomorrow.
Lights out.
Hubble?
( snoring )
Just one more.
How could dogs run an entire planet all on their own?
I mean, no offense,
But you guys don't have that much intelligence.
Oh, really?
Who's been teaching who all day long, Mr. Genius?
Hey, you may know about where you live,
But I know a lot more about where I live.
One thing I do know is that dogs don't run things.
Wait until you see how we got things runnin' down here.
We're gonna give you a grand tour.
I'm not shaking because I'm nervous.
I'm shaking because I'm excited.
Excuse me. I have to go first, please.
Why?
Because, honey, you do not want to deal with me
Until I've had my day at the beauty parlor.
You see, here on earth,
We pick people to do the things that matter most--
Hair, nails, accessories.
We have our own back scratchers.
I've got my own chauffeur.
I got my own personal shopper. Charge it!
They make the sandwiches, I eat them.
They warm up the seats, and I lay on 'em.
They plant the trees, I pee on 'em.
We get what we want.
We do what we want. We go where we want.
It may look to you like people are in charge,
But let's face it.
You don't see us pickin' up their poop.
Okay, that last one got me.
Pretty cool, huh?
So, what do you think, Mr. Space dog?
You're all pets.
Lazy, greedy, spoiled rotten good-for-nothings.
You've lost all dignity.
Will this affect our report card?
What do you think?
Now I have no choice. I have to flunk you.
Flunk us?
Flunk them?
We can't flunk. That'd be very bad.
Pardon me, Mr. Hubble.
We've been away from the home star so long,
Maybe if you helped us refresh our memory a little?
Yes! Be our teacher, Hubble.
Not my job.
I make my report, and I go.
Go?
Barbara Ann: He's leaving?
What do you mean, go?
Mission command will send a retriever for me eventually.
Then we still have some time to improve.
Please help us, Hubble. We don't want to flunk.
We want to be more like you.
Absolutely! Intelligent, dignified.
Nelly: Who are we kidding?
We could only dream of being as dignified as Hubble.
I don't know about that.
I may be an old dog, but I like to learn new tricks.
Oh, please!
Please, please, please, pretty please.
Come on. Please.
I usually don't approve of begging,
But I could teach them a thing or two.
Hubble's our teacher!
( all cheering )
But no funny business, understand?
Tomorrow, you start getting serious.
Wilson: It's your class, teach. You're the dog.
I didn't realize I'd made such an impression on them.
They really seem to look up to me.
That's the thing about earth dogs.
If they like you, they're not afraid to let you know.
Another fine example of
The intelligence of human beings?
Ta-da!
Wow!
I know.
Finally, right?
I can't wait to get started on the new place
In metro village.
So soon?
It's our dream home, honey.
I can't wait to get in there and get started.
But that's what you said about this house, mom,
And the house before that, and the one before that.
It's what we do, sweetheart. You know that.
I know.
I just wish we could stay somewhere,
Just once, for good.
It makes more sense financially
To live in the place that we're renovating.
Smile.
And besides, every time we move, we get a nicer place, right?
But this place seems nice enough to me.
Sweetheart, that's a lovely compliment,
But I bet you're gonna like the new place best of all.
Honey, can you move out? I want the painting by itself.
Thank you.
Good.
And this time, you won't be starting off all alone,
'cause you'll have Hubble.
Hello. I was just...
Where were you? With my mom.
Why do you care?
Why do dogs howl at the Moon?
Only coyotes do that, but it's not the Moon.
They're howling to the home star.
Sirius?
Just to the left, two stars over.
Coyotes are homesick cry-babies.
So when that retriever you talked about comes for you,
You're planning on going back with him?
This is only a temporary mission.
Right. I get it.
I appreciate your hosting me for the time being, but...
It's okay.
I'm used to temporary missions.
Hubble: All right, class, lesson number one.
Dignity comes from within.
On Sirius, we begin every day with meditation,
Easing gently into peaceful poses
To achieve a higher state of being,
And release our more base animal impulses.
Shh! Surrender.
Breathe in, breathe out.
In and out.
Relax.
Let it go.
( Shep farts )
Whoop! Pardon me.
Shep eats people food sometimes.
How lucky for us.
This one's outta the park.
Whoa !
Yeah!
Erase all distractions from your mind.
Hey, was that a ball?
I coulda swore I just heard a ball.
Hubble: Focus is the key to canine composure.
Was that a ball?
I do believe there was a ball.
I'm pretty sure that was a ball.
Nelly: I think I need to get it.
You ain't gettin' nothin'!
Back off, boxer, it's mine!
( all yelling )
What happened? What did I miss?
Did I miss something?
Baker!
Watch this.
Gimme back my ball.
I don't have it.
Why don't you talk to your dogs and tell 'em to give it back?
Talk to 'em, dog boy.
( high-pitched bark )
What a freak!
Your dog's a freak like you.
Get him!
Connie: Don't, you guys.
Quit it.
Who's gonna make me?
Connie?
Whatcha gonna do now, Baker?
( growling )
Call 'em off, Baker.
Call 'em off.
Just get up slowly.
Those dogs bite us, and my dad'll sue.
Give me the ball, Wilson.
Here. But I bet they come after you for it.
Keep it. I don't care.
Is this your only one?
Just keep it.
Okay. Guess you guys don't have any balls then.
We catch you without 'em, Baker,
You're dead meat.
You're really dead meat.
( growling and barking )
Run, run!
Connie: They're such total jerks.
Why do you hang out with them?
I don't know. We grew up together.
I could hang out with you, I guess.
Oh!
Could you watch the dogs for a second?
I'm gonna check on Hubble.
Cool.
You all right?
Why did you step in like that?
They were throwing rocks at you, Hub.
Sirius dogs fight their own battles.
Why would you put yourself at risk for me?
Because you're my dog.
Besides, that's what friends do, right?
You backed me up, too.
I did, didn't I?
Why would I do a stupid thing like that?
( whining )
I think they wanna play ball.
Want this?
Is this what you want?
Doesn't your dog wanna play?
I don't think he knows how.
Or maybe he's not good enough.
Look. He wants to try.
Okay. Go get it.
I can do this.
I got it!
Hubble: What am I doin'?
Aha! I got it! Wait, wait, wait.
Now I get it. That was just practice.
Wilson: Barbara Ann got it.
Hubble: Do over.
Let's go one more time. Do it again.
This one's all yours, Hub.
This one's all mine.
Eat my dust.
Hubble: Bad bounce.
That was a bad bounce.
Hmm!
You can do this.
I know you can.
Show 'em, Hub.
Show 'em what you're made of.
Let me try this one more time.
I can do it. I can.
I'll show 'em. I'll show 'em.
( exclaiming )
( Hubble screaming )
I got the ball!
Wilson: Wow! Barbara Ann: Holy guacamole!
Nelly: Good splash!
Is he all right?
Showoff!
Nelly: Can you teach me that?
Barbara Ann: Is that water clean?
He's fine.
Fine?! He took off like a 747.
Yeah, he's a good leaper,
Like those dogs with the frisbees.
Owen, dogs don't fly.
Now what is up with your dog?
You won't believe me.
I know how to keep a secret.
Works for me.
Ooh! Ow! Ow! Ah!
We had an agreement.
You weren't going to tell anybody about this.
Hey, don't blame me.
I wasn't the one who jumped 500 feet in front of her.
I was just going for the ball.
Hubble, you were flying.
We have stronger gravity on Sirius. Ouch!
It's much bigger than earth.
Oh. You're like an astronaut on the Moon.
You can jump higher and farther.
I can do lots of things.
What I can't do is catch that infuriating bouncy ball.
Wait a second.
So that rock around your neck--
Is this from outer space?
We all wear them.
It's a token.
What's it mean?
It means...Home.
Oof! Ouch!
Here, lay down a minute.
We have to work on the woofer. Ouch.
Hey, don't...
Would you just...
That's why you got those thumbs.
You're a very nice person, Owen.
Thanks.
We really should get back... To work...Woofer.
( snoring )
Shep, you can't fly.
You can try all you want.
You're an earth dog.
Whoa!
( crash )
Shep!
Three, two, one... Blast off!
( crash )
Up, up, and away!
Barbara Ann!
We're sort of concerned about
What he might be teaching...Wilson!
(music) I believe I can fly! (music)
Tony? Tony!
Stupid thing.
I got it.
I got it, too.
See what my dad built for you?
If you lived here, you'd have your very own house.
Get back here.
3942. 3942.
Don't touch.
Must be some sort of code.
Aren't you 3942?
Oh, 3942. I'm here. This is 3942.
3942, please respond.
I am responding.
I don't think they can hear you.
Visitation confirmed.
Arrival of the greater Dane confirmed.
Oh, no.
Arrival?
Repeat: Greater Dane arriving.
When? When?
Hey, it's getting late, guys.
( Owen yells )
Oops. What was that?
Nothing. Nothing!
You all right? You're lookin' a little pale.
No, I'm fine, I'm fine.
Yeah, I'm fine.
The greater Dane is coming here.
Oh, this is bad. She is not going to be happy.
The greater Dane is a she?
Of course.
Wow!
It's all over now.
She's going to expect a proper welcome, a grand tour.
So? We'll do it.
We'll give it to her.
You don't understand.
When she sees what I've seen here,
She...She'll give the order.
What order?
Mmm.
Come on, Hubble. Tell me.
What's the worst thing she can do?
Global recall.
Global what?
Recall.
All earth dogs will be ordered back to Sirius
For punishment and retraining.
She can't do that.
It'll be gradual.
City by city, day after day, but trust me, she can.
Why would she?
I told you.
Earth dogs are not supposed to be pets.
All dogs...Gone.
We can't let that happen.
It won't be up to us.
No, I mean, we can work with the dogs.
You can teach them how to give a royal welcome,
And we'll come up with something
That shows her how dogs run things.
I'll even act like I'm your pet if I have to.
No, sir. I am in enough trouble already with her.
No way.
What did you do wrong?
Us talking right now-- that's a problem, remember?
I did that.
Mr. Leone: Is it chilly out here for you, Nelly?
We'll take you inside, warm you up.
I know it's hard to imagine
A world without dogs, Owen,
But you can't fix things that are beyond your control.
I'm not trying to.
But if you go away,
And all the rest of the dogs go away...
Then...Then...
Who's gonna be your best friend?
When the greater Dane arrives,
We must welcome her with dignified pageantry.
Your pride and honor should burst forth.
( Shep farts )
Oh, Shep!
Sorry. Spaghetti and meatballs.
That's it! This is hopeless.
You're all leaving earth forever.
Hubble...
Not now. I'm yelling.
That's what's gonna happen if you don't straighten up.
This is the greater Dane,
Not some cockapoo or shih tzu.
She'll have you strung up by your tails.
Strung up?
Not my tail.
What did he say?
He's a little stressed out.
Let me talk to them for a moment.
You all understand that you're being asked
To prove yourselves, right?
To prove that you're worthy to live here,
To stay with the people you love.
We want that more than anything.
We'll do whatever we need to do.
I know you will.
Just do your best.
They usually respond better to a little...Encouragement.
Let's start over.
When the Dane passes, you must bow low before her.
No one's head should ever be higher than hers.
Let's practice. I'll play her.
( clears throat )
Thank you. Thank you, earth dogs.
Nice to see you.
I'm pleased to visit your fair planet.
Oh, isn't it lovely to be here?
La-dee-dah, la-dee-dah, et cetera and so forth.
Hmm. Not bad.
Not bad? That was cool.
It was good, actually.
I want to encourage you all to keep practicing.
It's an attitude-- dignified, serious.
Now, have you figured out a way to convince her we're in charge?
Connie had an idea. Tell him your plan.
Whenever a great leader visits the white house,
They give a formal dinner.
It's so lovely getting together like this, earth dogs.
We should do it more often.
It's hard for me, your majesty.
I Summer here, but I winter in Miami.
Yes, I Summer here, too, but I winter in my poopie.
( all laughing )
Whoa, Nelly.
That was embarrassing. I'm fine.
Ahem!
Bring on the first course.
Oh, my!
Wilson: They got steak.
I did say I was hungry enough to eat a cow.
Barbara Ann: My compliments to the chef.
That's a sausage, right, not a hot dog.
A hot dog would be wrong.
Can I just have a bite right now?
Medium rare. Look it.
Control.
Shep.
Your majesty, I would like to apologize in advance
For any farting.
Nelly: Is that chicken bits?
No, sweetheart, that's pâté.
What is she talkin' about, pa-tay?
It's French for meat byproduct.
Ooh, pass me the pâté.
I must say,
The humans are much more domesticated than I expected.
Thank you very much, ma'am.
Has any other greater Dane ever visited earth before this?
You're talking to me. That can't happen.
Oh, yeah. Right.
It's been ages since the last visit.
I betcha this will be the fanciest welcome
Any Dane's ever gotten.
We are in deep diddily doo-doo.
Hey, o., lookin' pretty spiffy there.
Hey, honey, we got a very big day tomorrow.
We're gonna sell, sell, sell.
Dad: Sell, sell, sell.
Focus. Eyes on the ball. Be the ball.
All right, Hub. Go to bed.
I'm just saying, I think I could get pretty good at this game.
What's the point if you're not gonna be here
Long enough to play?
Oh, right.
It's just a silly game anyway.
Are you...Agitated?
Yep, but it's not about you. Don't worry.
You want a biscuit?
No.
It's hard to leave home. I know.
But it's not where you are, Owen.
It's who you're with.
Your mom and dad and you-- you make a good home.
Thanks.
All right, lights out.
I'll deal with you later.
( humming )
All right, you gotta tell me.
What?
Why do you do those circles?
I'm building a mind fence.
Excuse me?
A mind fence.
It helps to keep out negative thoughts
While you sleep.
Yeah, sure.
How would you like to never, ever have another bad dream?
Never?
Never, ever.
There. Go to sleep.
( snickering )
Mind fence.
Can't believe you fell for that one!
( laughing )
Hey.
(music) our cookies...In the air Will help sell your house (music)
(music) cookies in the air Will sell your house (music)
Oh, no. I can sense it.
This could be the day.
Owen! This is an all-family operation.
Up and at 'em!
No, ma. I have to work with the dogs today.
Owen, I need you around here today.
Mom. Mom!
What?
There's nothing more important
Than me working with the dogs right now.
Owen, we've gotten some interesting calls lately
From the neighbors.
Uh-huh.
A particularly interesting one from Connie's mother last night.
Oh?
Your dad and I think it's time to wrap it up
With the neighborhood dogs.
But, mom, the dogs need me now more than ever.
Today you're needed here, with people.
I want you downstairs in one minute.
Not good.
Dad, watch for Hubble.
That dog. Not today, Hubba bubba.
I'll get him. No, I got him.
You stay.
I'm gonna tie him up out front.
Sit nicely out here and say, "hello! It's open house day.
Buy, buy, buy!"
That's what you're gonna tell them.
Ooh.
She's got a little terrier in her, that one.
Hey, look, it's freak dog.
What a freak.
Hey.
He's all alone.
And that should do it.
( loud rumble )
Whoa!
What was that?
Sounded like a sonic boom.
Yoo-hoo! Smile.
Cute.
That was a sonic boom?
Yeah. Doesn't make sense, though.
Owen, change that shirt.
I need you to pass out fact folders to the guests.
When I was a kid, I used to hear that a lot,
But we lived near an air force base.
That...That is weird.
Owen, tick-tock.
Thank you.
Great. Thanks a lot.
Mom.
I was looking all over for you.
Feel free to roam the house as you like.
I can't find Hubble.
I'm sure he's around somewhere.
Hubble's gone.
Give him to me.
I'm tryin'.
Nelly: I can smell them. It's Franky and Fred.
Owen: The greater Dane might be coming today.
We can't lose him now.
Straight edge.
Buzz cut.
Let's give him a close shave.
Yeah, shave.
I said the dog, loser.
Shep: There he is.
Help.
Get away from him, you punks.
I'm gonna get you, you brats!
I'm outta here.
Get him.
Go! Hubble, run!
Whoa!
Ow!
( all growling )
If I catch your butt, I'm gonna bite it.
That little one is mine.
Oh, my back.
Red light. Red light.
Barbara Ann: We are law-abidin' citizens.
There they are.
Green means go.
There they go.
Yeah!
( loud, high-pitched bark )
Whoa!
Over there.
Barbara Ann: We got 'em now!
( dogs laugh hysterically )
Yeah!
Owen! It's a party!
( all laughing )
Wilson: What was in that gas, 'cause I can't see straight.
Run! Run!
What are you doing?
What's going on?
( deep, loud bark )
The greater Dane.
Va-voom!
That is one handsome lady.
Sh. Quiet.
Barbara Ann: Can someone tell her to stay in focus, please?
Run!
Down.
Mom. Dad.
Bow down.
All hail her royal highness!
That is not a dog.
What is that thing?
That's a rat with a wig.
It's a wig rat.
What's the matter with all of you?
Don't you know who this is? Look sharp!
( slurring ) your majesty, what a lovely surprise.
We were all wondering
When you were gonna get your royal heinie down here.
Can I bite him? I'll bite him if you want me to.
You have a lot of explaining to do, 3942.
3942. That's my number.
I'm not here right now. Please leave a message.
Greater Dane: Pull yourself together, canid.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm totally serious now. I'm...Sirius!
( laughing hysterically )
Isn't there one among you
Who knows how to give your leader a proper welcome?
( farts loudly )
( dogs laugh )
Uh-oh!
( sniffing )
( laughing )
Oh, you're all dog meat now.
All of you, come with me.
Earth dogs...
And you, 3942.
What a disgrace.
What's happening?
Nothing good.
If it makes you feel any better,
We all knew you were gonna screw up.
Back!
Yes, ma'am.
Right away, ma'am. Yes, ma'am.
Every rumor I've heard about our species on this planet
Appears to be true.
No dominance, no dignity.
We had something formal planned for you.
"we had something formal..." shut your yap!
Enough.
Your little welcome party was highly revealing, 3942.
I have no choice but to give the order for global recall.
No.
I've seen all I need to see.
Wait!
No, you Haven't. You Haven't.
You can't take them away.
Please. Dogs mean so much to the world,
And you Haven't seen any of that yet.
They protect us, and they keep us company,
And they always warn us if something bad might happen.
Some dogs even work with police and firefighters,
And do amazing things--
Things people could never do on their own.
Some dogs even help people who can't see by guiding them.
We rely on them for so much.
You should be proud of them,
Because people love dogs.
Did you know that?
People and dogs love each other.
I am still curious
As to why a human boy is talking with me.
( gasps )
Funny story.
You did this?
It's not Hubble's fault.
I mean, 3942.
It's not his fault.
You better step down, Owen.
I'm sorry.
But please, think about what I said.
( growls )
Love?
Here they come.
Hubble.
What happened?
She decided to go home.
Is it all over?
It's all over.
Yes!
You did it, Owen!
Wait. What about you, Hubble?
Are you...Here?
I'm...Here.
I don't believe it.
I thought I blew it.
Where's everybody going?
I think everyone's tired.
Oh. Well...
We can celebrate later, right?
Now we can play ball, Hub.
I know it won't be easy not going back to Sirius,
But it's not where you are.
It's who you're with, right?
Yeah.
What is it, Shep?
My pretty ladybird.
Wilson?
That's my girl-- my sweet Nelly.
Yeah, you are sweet.
Yeah.
What?
I know I Haven't been the most affectionate dog.
It's okay.
You're different, Hub.
I like that about you.
But I've seen the way others
Express themselves to their people,
And...
I want you to know,
I do like you.
I'm just not used to all the customs here.
Hubble, it's all right.
You just told me you liked me.
How many people get to hear that from their dog?
Owen.
Honey.
Mom?
Honey, miss Ryan is at the door.
She wants to talk to you.
What about?
I know Barbara Ann's every move.
I know everywhere she would go.
You don't understand.
It's as if she simply vanished.
Nelly!
Oh, no.
Dad: You're not saying Owen took the dogs? No. No, no, no.
He lost his dog, too.
Tony: I just don't understand
How he could know nothing about what happened.
Now you're moving away. Where does that leave all of us?
It's not Owen's fault.
Connie, go inside.
He tried to stop them.
Stop who, Connie?
Who took them?
The dogs.
The other dogs.
From outer space.
Maybe it is best that you're leaving.
It's because of all this constant moving we've been doing, isn't it?
I'm sure it's not helping.
The deal on the house hasn't officially closed yet.
It's not too late to change our minds.
What do we do?
Here you go.
The movers'll be here at 10:00 tomorrow.
Where's your cap?
I can't find it.
Owen, you know we'll get you another dog.
And soon.
That's a promise.
Maybe I'm not supposed to have one, mom.
Don't say that.
Nobody deserves a dog more than you.
Okay?
And finally tonight, file this under "odd."
There's been a drastic increase in reports of lost dogs
All over the state recently.
Authorities are baffled by this rash of disappearances,
But say they're doing their best
To "sniff out" the culprits.
We'll see you tomorrow night.
( sniffles )
Hubble, I'm sorry.
I let you down.
I should've kept quiet up on that hill.
( crying )
I hope I didn't get you in trouble by talking.
I didn't think of...
I just didn't think.
Now everyone's losing their dogs, and it's all my fault.
I know you can't hear me.
I miss you so much.
I never had a friend like you.
I wanted you to stay here with me so badly,
But I...
I know you have your home there.
I hope I didn't screw everything up for you.
I hope they're not being mean to you.
Because you're a good boy, Hubble.
You are.
You're a good boy.
You are.
You're a good boy.
I have often wondered what it was about human beings
That could lead so many of our species astray--
What it is that makes us abandon our drive for dominance.
Go on, 3942.
Speak.
Enlighten me.
I think it's friendship.
People and dogs live side by side on earth,
And they make a home together.
A home?
It seems that inspires great loyalty.
I must ask you now--
Where does your loyalty lie?
3942.
I prefer the name Hubble.
Owen, it's time to go.
Bye.
( door slams )
Dad, was that another sonic boom?
No, that was just the movers closing the door.
Come on, buddy.
We really need to get goin'.
Dad. Sorry about that.
Pothole.
No, that was too big of a noise.
Owen. It was too big of a noise.
Dad, stop. Wait! What is it?
Stop the car. I forgot something.
What? Owen!
Hey!
Owen! Owen!
Something's going on.
Where are you going?
The dogs!
What? The dogs?
I know I heard it. I know I heard it.
Please. Please.
What was that?
Now, wait a minute.
Look at that cloud up there!
Look at that cloud!
Look, the Sky!
What is that?
Yes!
Here, boy. Over here!
Wilson: This button, right?
Barbara Ann: You broke it.
Don't touch that.
I know what I'm doing!
Owen!
Connie: Wait. Wait!
Listen.
( barking )
Is that the dogs?
Nelly: We're home!
I missed ya, Owen.
There's my main man.
It's good to see you. It was a long flight.
Nelly: That's the last time I travel in a spaceship.
There she is.
There she is!
Hey there, mama!
Hey, guys, I'm back!
Hello, papa.
Look, mom, he's back. Say hi, Shep.
( sobbing )
Are you here...
...To stay?
Yep.
The greater Dane declared earth dogs
An entirely different breed.
I...Really missed you.
I know.
I heard.
You heard?
I think you're a good boy, too.
Oh, I almost forgot.
She said I could stay on one condition.
Whoa!
Was that your woofer again?
Hubble?
Hubble.
I have so many more questions to ask you.
How am I gonna know what you're thinking?
Start unpacking.
We're home for good.
Yeah.
Hubble, good boy.
