Hello, ma'am, and happy holidays.
My name is Jack, and I have
a cleaning product that will change your life.
I'm really just not interested.
Okay, well, let's take this stain here for example.
Please, stop, I'm not interested.
Okay, well, a quick spray, and an even quicker wipe...
and voilà, it's gone.
Wow... I'm impressed.
As is...
Oh, Bootsy.
As is Bootsy.
You really are something, young man.
Next thing you know, you're gonna tell me
that I can use it to brush my teeth.
No, I wouldn't recommend that, but let's say
little Bootsy here has a whoopsie on the carpet--
Kid, how many times have I told you
not to hustle your stuff up here?
Sir, can I just finish this transaction?
This beautiful lady seems enthralled with my fine cleaning products.
You don't get it, do you?
You're not welcome here.
Sir, I am trying to raise money
for Christmas presents for orphans.
This is what happens when the parents aren't around
to put a leash on their kids.
You always have a story, don't you?
But this time, it's true!
Ma'am, if we could just please go across the street
to finish our transaction over there, then maybe--
Forget it, kid-- get outta here.
Don't make me call the cops.
Capisce? Yeah, I got it!
(engine starts)
(door closes)
What do you think you're doing, kid?
Giving you a reason to call the cops!
Go on, dial 9-1-1.
Tell 'em old Jack is here waiting for 'em.
They knome quite well.
(knocks on door)
Yes, Joanna? Hey, Art, Jack is back.
Should I show him in?
Yes, show him in.
Jack is back.
Why am I not surprised?
Hello, Jack.
Well, now, see, this is the part
where you're supposed to say, "Hello, Officer Stephenson.
How are you?"
Well, I'll tell you how I am, Jack.
I am very disappointed in you.
Why are you always so angry?
Check your fact file there.
You'll find a full list of reasons.
We have been through this over the years, haven't we, son?
I've been through it.
With you, it's just age.
What are you now, 75, 80?
(chuckles)
You know, I remember when we first met.
What was it, about five years ago?
Back then, you at least tried to be nice to me.
And look how far that got me.
Do you know who you remind me of?
Here we go again about my mother.
One of your first probationers.
So much potential.
I've heard it before.
And how is your mother?
I don't know.
Still not keeping up with you, huh?
Nope.
I must be a disappointment to her too.
Well, you don't have to be a disappointment to me, son.
Trespassing? Destruction of private property?
Arson?
Come on, what is that all about?
It was barely a candle's flame, really.
I really thought that we were turning things around, Jack.
There is no "we",
just you behind that desk and then me,
out here in the real world.
Sit down, son.
It says here 1 year of intensive probation
and 120 hours of community service.
Now, do you think you can do that?
Afterschool, maybe on weekends?
Whatever.
Well, since roadside clean-up hasn't done much
to curb your delinquent behavior,
I got something else in mind.
You're gonna be helping people this Christmas.
How about that?
♪
So, Jackson, I'm Blair, and I'm in charge of this place.
Oh, it's Jack.
My name's Jack. Jack.
But your probation placement report says your name is Jackson.
Oh, yeah, birth names can be outgrown, Blair.
Duly noted, Jack.
So follow me.
So... this is where the action happens.
(dogs barking)
And this is Hillary.
Hi, I handle most of the paperwork here.
That's my sister Ryan.
She takes care of the pups.
And this is our adorable crew.
Well, it'll be wonderful working with such beautiful ladies.
Our big mission here is to clean up and close up
before we all leave for the Christmas holidays, okay?
Sounds like a plan.
Okay, so you're gonna be mostly cleaning up.
Is that okay with you?
Oh, it's completely fine.
I have extensive experience in cleaning products.
Even started my own brand.
Okay, so we're gonna have you clean
one of the empty enclosures.
Ryan, do you mind showing him how to do that?
If I must.
Well, she seems busy with that rat creature-looking thing.
Maybe old Hillary could show me around.
Her name's Petunia, and she's a mixed breed,
not a rat creature.
(Hillary) Okay, Jack, come with me.
See you around, "Cryan".
(door closes)
Jack, you know dinner's at 6:00.
Why are you always so late?
I was working. Working?
Is that what you call it?
Because I understood that it was community service
for being in trouble again.
Thanks for informing the whole table about my life,
just in case they didn't already know.
Come on, no need to get smart, son.
I'm not your son, Lou, and you're not my father.
Yeah, you've made that clear, Jack.
It's your choice being in and out of fosters all the time.
Thanks for reminding me of my sad life.
It really makes me feel all warm inside.
Anyone want to make Christmas cookies?
Finish your food, boys.
(Trevor) We love you, Jack, don't we, Ton?
Of course. Thanks, guys.
Glad to know there's some love in this house.
Jack, as much as you disagree,
we're trying to make your life better by what we provide.
I'm just a grocery bill to you guys.
Believe what you want, but we're trying to build a family here.
I can feel the overwhelming presence of love.
You know, you don't have to stay.
What does that mean?
I'll be coming with you guys when you move in a few months?
That's right, boys.
Old Lou and Josie are moving to Arizona,
a more arid climate for Josie's asthma.
I overheard you talking out back the other night,
so merry Christmas to all, and to all, a good night.
(door closes)
♪
Hey, going to a little holiday shindig near campus.
Lots of cute college boys,
and from what I hear, mistletoe under every doorway.
You interested? No thanks.
You know, you can't sit in your room your entire life
reading post-feminist chick lit.
I'm reading Stephen King.
Ugh, same thing.
Anyway, have a merry little yawner at home.
(dog barking)
(Ryan) This is Titus.
Definitely no big barker.
No way.
What about Mimsy here?
She's sweet, and good,
and just dying for someone to love her.
See?
I don't know.
She's a little bit bigger than what I pictured.
She's not that big.
Um, I don't think she's gonna get much bigger.
Just look at her feet.
I just don't think she's what I'm looking for.
I mean, I was really looking for a dog
that I could fit in my purse, you know?
Okay, well, sorry we couldn't find a good match for you today, Jen.
(...)
Personally, I think this dog is perfect for you, Jennifer.
Or do you go by Jen?
May I call you Jen?
Well, see, she's quiet as a dormouse,
and that is your main concern, yes?
And you can't really hold it against her
that she's not some yappy teacup dog.
She's still cute, and, uh, between you and I,
all the dogs in here are cute.
But this dog has been looking at you
since the minute you walked in.
Can't you see it in her eyes?
I think you might need Misty as much as Misty needs you.
Mimsy.
Okay.
She is really cute.
(chuckles)
And calm.
(sighs) You're right.
I'll take r.
I assure you-- this will be the greatest Christmas present
you have ever given yourself.
(Hillary) Okay, right this way, ma'am,
so we can get your paperwork started.
I think we made a sale, "Cryan".
(scoffs)
Hey, Jack, you want a ride?
So I assume you know what I wanted to talk to you about.
No, but I bet you're gonna tell me.
You gotta start getting along better with your foster parents.
I got a report that you've been arguing with them.
Good riddance to them both.
This is your ninth foster home, Jack.
We can't have you getting kicked out now
when you're so close to being out of the system.
Fine... I'll shut my mouth.
You gotta get it together, son.
You'll be 18 soon and out on your own.
The day can't come soon enough.
Frankly, I'm not so sure you're ready for it. I'll be fine.
Well, I'd like to see you prove that to me.
Better yet, I'd like to see you prove it to yourself.
You know, I've invested a lot of time and energy
into you over the years, son,
And I don't want to see it go to waste.
♪
I can't believe you don't already have a boyfriend.
I've had boyfriends.
Just don't have one right now.
So... you looking?
Not really, I'm too busy applying to colleges.
Not to mention you're a bit young for her, don't you think?
I think you could get more work done
if you worried about yourself more and me less.
I'm on break, unlike you,
who would get more work done if you actually did some work.
Enough, you two.
But she's right.
You've gotta get back to work, okay?
We're running out of time to get this place closed for Christmas.
(dog whimpers)
You know, you're like that girl they hook you up with.
Say she's got an outstanding personality,
which really means... outstandingly difficult to look at.
No offense.
Most dogs are beautiful.
You, however, have an outstanding personality.
Hm.
What's up with "Cryan"?
It's Mrs. Rose, the owner of the shelter.
We just got horrible news.
What happened to her?
It's not her, it's the shelter.
We just found out we're not gonna be
opening again after the holidays.
(laughs) What are you talking about?
Exactly what she just said.
The shelter's closing permanently,
and there's nothing we can do to stop it.
But what about the dogs that haven't been placed in homes yet?
They'll go to the city shelter.
And those that have been here for over six months
will likely be euthanized.
That's not right. The whole thing's not right.
But Mrs. Rose, who built the shelter,
can't afford to keep it up anymore.
She was forced to sell.
Why doesn't she take the dogs?
She loves these dogs, but she can't really take 'em
'cause she's allergic.
Most dogs only last a few weeks at the city shelter.
Then, they'll just kill 'em after they arrive.
We don't do that here.
That's why I started working here in the first place.
Just the thought of it, I can't take it.
Here, they could have stayed forever.
Over there, they say they can't spend
public money on lost causes.
How many lost causes are there?
At last count, 11.
And most of them have some major issues,
which is why they've been here so long.
Wait, the dogs still here
are the ones they're just gonna...
(Ryan) Don't say it.
Well, how much time do they have?
Just under two weeks.
Until Christmas Eve.
Won't exactly make our Christmas all warm,
and fuzzy, and merry this year, that's for sure.
Hey.
I'm sorry about the dogs.
Yeah, it's so terrible.
Poor Ryan.
We would take some of the dogs home with us if we could,
but we can't 'cause our cat's terrified of them.
Have you ever had a dog before?
I think Ryan used to have one when she was younger,
before my mom married her dad.
It's sad she can't have one now
since she's the real dog lover.
I like them too, but I'm just volunteering here for my resume.
Ooh, cute and smart.
Double threat. (giggles)
Glad I could at least use my winning personality
to find old Mimsy a home.
Jack-- wait.
Yeah?
You still have more than 60 hours left on your service.
You digging through my personal file, "Cryan"?
Can you be serious for, like, one minute, please?
Fine, what?
What if you help me place all the unadoptable dogs before Christmas?
Why would you want my help?
Come on, Jack, we all know
you're, like, the prince of persuasion.
Even I have to admit you have a certain--
Charm? Persuasiveness over people.
It's a terrible idea.
I know from experience.
You can't make people take things they don't want.
(dogs barking)
Love would really have to be blind to find you.
(dog barks)
(dogs barking)
Fine, I'm in, okay?
In what, Jack? Trouble again?
No, I'm in to helping find the dogs homes before Christmas.
Under one condition, of course.
And that is...
You help me land a date with your sister.
Fine. Really?
Hillary's totally into bad decisions when it comes to men.
I should have no problem getting her to fall for you whatsoever.
You know what? I'm gonna take that as a compliment.
But are you sure there aren't any other reasons
that you might have changed your mind?
Like...
All those adorable pups? Maybe even Petunia?
No, not at all.
The only other reason I could possibly think
is knowing that it's gonna torture you
just as much as it'll torture me
having to spend the next two weeks together.
Fine, yay to getting tortured then.
So as Blair said, most of the dogs have issues
that make them nearly impossible to place.
No need to be afraid of Titus.
He's all bark, no bite.
(barking)
All sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Quoting Shakespeare.
I must say I'm actually impressed.
Indeed, smarter than I look.
Yeah, don't flatter yourself.
And this is Romeo, the complete opposite of Titus.
All he wants to do is hug and kiss.
Total planter.
And this is Clementine.
Need I say more?
So what's up with these two pups?
They seem fine.
Yeah, that does seem the case
with Cassie, and Maggie, or the twins, as we call them.
But really, they're going 100 miles per hour.
Dogs with ADD.
Wait, is that so bad?
They drive people crazy.
They never stop.
Plus, they go mental if they're separated.
They've been adopted out twice and brought back really fast.
And Skippy here obviously has cataracts
and can't see much of anything.
Can't they be fixed or something?
I don't know, can you afford the surgery?
'Cause we sure can't.
Well, um, I'm all out of stains, sprayed,
not a penny to my name.
You know, funny enough, though, Skippy can still fetch.
He wants to play ball 24/7.
This is Bruno.
He's super smart, but in dog years,
he'd be our in-house senior citizen.
So no one wants to take him 'cause he's so old.
And this here is Boomer.
He really likes to roughhouse.
Probably belongs more in a frat house than around children.
And our little lady Sadie here has a ton of skin allergies,
so whoever takes her is gonna have to pay for her shots.
Poor Poppy.
We think that she was abused and abandoned by her prior owner.
And we're pretty sure it was a man
because she's terrified of them.
So she's afraid of all men?
Yeah.
That's so sad.
And finally, there's Petunia, our longest-running resident.
She's been here for over two years now.
How did she get here anyway?
It was before I started working here,
but Blair told me that the woman who brought her in said
she saw her and her mom in a ditch
filled with water the day before.
She's pretty sure Petunia's mom abandoned her
because she was too weak to climb out of the ditch.
She nearly drowned in there.
Well, she's not weak anymore.
And besides, how was she not already adopted?
She's easily the sweetest dog in here.
Only... She's not pretty or perfect?
Not all of us can be like Hillary, huh, Petunia?
I was actually gonna say
that she is kind of perfect.
Maybe people are just too blind to see it.
Okay, so I have the perfect idea
for where we can start trying to find homes
for these dogs first thing tomorrow.
You want to come?
We could really use your persuasive skills.
Huh, Petunia?
Yeah, sure.
in need of a home for the holidays,
and we thought if you would be so kind as to let us,
maybe we could try and find homes for them
by doing some sort of doggie adoption day here.
We? Who's we? Me and J-- Jack!
Oh, no, not you again!
No way, miss.
Forget it.
♪
Any luck?
Nope, we went 0 for 11.
Not even a nibble.
Well, don't let one bad day get you down.
You know, it's Christmastime.
It's the season of miracles and hope.
You are frighteningly optimistic, Blair.
Well, maybe if we all get in the Christmas spirit,
it might help our chances, you know?
Yeah, just gonna be a lot more work than I originally thought.
I guess we'll pick a new neighborhood tomorrow
and see if we can place any of the dogs there.
Jack, you hear anything I just said?
Sure, sure, new location.
What are you studying?
It's for my AP business course.
We're learning target marketing.
Target marketing.
Yeah, you know, where you target your product
to a particular market that's perfect for it.
Oh, kinda like what I do with my stain spray.
Yeah, I guess so.
It's too bad we can't target-market
Petunia into a good home too.
Jack, you're a genius. Huh?
No, we target market the unadoptable dogs into new homes.
It's perfect.
So you're saying we use what's keeping them
from being adopted to our advantage.
Exactly, we turn their negatives into positives.
Guys, these are dogs we're talking about.
I don't think it works like that. No, no.
Wait, Hill, they-- they have a good point.
Take the twins for example.
They're super-hyper, so maybe we need
to find a family with super-hyper kids
to keep up with them, right?
Exactly.
(Jack) Target marketing, I love it.
Thank you for helping me spawn
this amazing idea with that book of yours, Hillary.
I can feel your intellect rubbing off on me as we speak.
Here, let me help you there.
Wouldn't want you to fall.
(scoffs)
What?
Nothing. No, not nothing.
You did that "pfft" thing like you always do.
Me? No, I didn't say anything.
Why are you such a wet spot?
Why are you such a dirty floor?
You know, you really do have a way with people, Jack.
While some might call it charm,
I'd call it selfish, self-absorbed egotism.
Well, considering my parents left me when I was a kid,
I have no real family, no place to call home--
unless you're considering the nine different foster homes
I've been in over the last seven years--
yeah, I guess I am selfish.
Hard not to be focused on yourself
when all you have is yourself.
I'm sorry, I didn't know how rough you had it.
No, I don't want your pity party.
Just do what you promised, and fix me up with your sister.
Fine, you help us target-market
the rest of these dogs into the right homes,
and I'll get you your date.
Good.

(Blair) So you have about 10 more days till Christmas Eve,
and only about seven dogs left to find homes for?
That's not bad, guys.
I still think the odds are against us, though.
We've got dogs with much bigger problems
than the ones we placed today.
It's gonna take a Christmas miracle
to find homes for the rest of these pups.
Well, good thing one of us believes in Christmas miracles.
Hey, guys, just bringing Boomer back.
I can't stay, though, I gotta run to rehearsal.
Uh, Jack, would you mind taking a picture of me?
We need a good one for the Christmas pageant flyer.
Boomer, get your big, hairy butt out of my picture.
Guys, I just got a great idea
of how we can get these dogs adopted.
How?
We host our very own doggie adoption day,
like, a few days before Christmas,
hire a photographer to take pictures
of kids with some dogs, Santa,
maybe even a pretty Christmas elf.
That sounds like a great idea.
That sounds expensive.
No, wait.
What if we got it at the community center?
I used to volunteer there, so I'm sure
they'd let us borrow the space for an adoption day.
And maybe some of the other pageant elves can come too.
What a great idea, Jack.
Hillary, how do you always get people
to do things for you for free?
I don't know, I guess I'm just--
Hillary.
And hooray for Hillary!

It's Trevor and Tony that I'm worried about.
So we found a family who's interested
in taking Trevor and Tony.
Really sweet couple.
They live in that fancy gated community, Honey Brook?
Even have a cute little pug to play with.

Wow.

I actually have a juvenile probationer

Will wonders never cease?
Honestly, I think the dogs are finally getting to him.

One morning, he was late for work.

Well, maybe, but these new parents

Jack Whitley.
Long time, no see, young man.
This is sure unexpected, but merry Christmas to you.
Who's your little friend there?
Oh, this is Clementine.
She yours? For the time being at least.
So, um, what's up?
How is everything?
Good-- not too bad, I guess.
You staying out of trouble these days?
At least trying to.
How's your new foster family?
Eh, not too bad.
How's Molly? Molly?
Oh, she's great.
Enjoying junior high.
That's actually why I'm here today, to be honest.
Why's that?
Well, uh, I was just remembering
back to when you were fostering me
and how you'd always get on my case,
but you were really forgiving...
you and Molly both.
And I was just thinking I treated you guys really bad,
and I really just feel awful about it.
I thought maybe I'd give you a thank-you gift
for being a positive influence on my life.
Okay.
Molly was always so inspiring to me,
and Clementine needs some inspiration,
e specially right now in her life.
You brought us a three-legged dog?
Oh, yeah, I guess.
Kinda-- I mean, no offense.
I just thought-- Jack, look.
I'm sure Molly would love to have a dog,
but it's a huge commitment.
I don't know if we can with her being in a wheelchair.
Come on, Mr. Banks.
You and I both know that Molly
is one of the most capable people that there is.
And honestly, I don't want to beg you or anything,
but Clementine needs a home right now.
Otherwise, she'll be euthanized before Christmas.
Well.
Truth is I haven't had time to find Molly a proper present anyway,
So... perhaps you might have just saved my behind as well.
Now, why don't you come inside for some hot cocoa,
help me put up this tree, and tell me what kind of forms
we need to fill out for your friend here
before Molly gets back home?
Thanks, I really appreciate it.
Don't mention it.
It's just great to see the kind of man
you turned out to be, Jack.
I'm sure Molly'd be thrilled to hear it too.

Rose's Animal Shelter, happy holidays.
How can I help you?
Yeah, we got a few grade-A adoptees left,
but technically, we're closed.
Yeah, we could drive over there tonight.
Yeah, it would be a special holiday delivery.
She's smart, wonderful with kids, and super nice.
Yeah, I think she'd be a great addition to your family.
1450 Fairview.
Be there in, like, 15 minutes sharp.
So spill, which dog do they want?
I think we found Petunia a home.
Hello. Hello.
My name's Jack, and this is my kennel comrade Ryan,
and this right here is beautiful, old Petunia.
She's here to spread Christmas joy to your family.
Well, uh...
She's the sweetest dog ever.
She's housebroken, smart, and great with kids.
Plus, she does tricks.
Petunia, sit.
Petunia, shake hands.
Petunia, dance?
I'm sorry, I think we're gonna have to pass.
It's just not the kind of dog we're looking
to surprise our children with, okay?
She's not an it, she's a she.
And what kind of dog are you looking to get?
I don't know, maybe a puppy perhaps,
something fluffy,
something that won't scare them half to death
every time it looks back at them, you know?
At least let me pay you for your time.
Take your money and shove it--
Jack!
Don't.
Right back into your pocket, sir.
Come on, Petunia, we're leaving.
(Petunia squeals) Hey, what's the point of that?
I'm angry, okay?
Well, look, you scared Petunia.
She's shaking, she loves you.
You shouldn't do that to her.
Okay, I'm sorry, Tunie.
I didn't mean to scare you.
You forgive me? I'm sure she already has.
Not like you even tried apologizing to me.
So, um, what about my date with Hillary?
Still working on that, or-- Sorry.
She's been super swamped with that big Christmas play,
and I've been a little preoccupied
trying to find homes for all these dogs, remember?
Can't it wait till after Christmas, Mr. Impatient?
As long as I get to kiss her on New Year's Eve night...
I suppose.
Spare me the details.
The thought of kissing you makes me wanna ralph.
Why are you such a hater, anyways?
Don't you date boys?
I'll date a boy when I find a decent boy to date.
I bet you're into those hipster types, aren't you?
No, just preferably someone real
who's into the same things as me.
What? Like, Shakespeare?
I don't just like Shakespeare.
I'm into other stuff too--
J.K. Rowling, Sedaris, Sybil, Stephen King.
I have all kinds of tastes in books.
Wait, I like Stephen King too.
Yeah? Better not tell Hillary that.
She thinks anyone who reads his stuff is prone to violence.
(scoffs) That's kinda silly.
On the other hand, you did see
what I did to that trash can earlier, right?
Yeah.
(sneezes)
Thank you so much for everything, Blair.
I-- I couldn't have kept this place alive
as long as I have without your help.
Of course, Miss Rose, we-- we did our best.
We sure tried, didn't we?
Yeah. Oh.
(sneezes)
Thank you, Blair.
(door opens)
(door closes)
So that's the lady that owns the place,
the one you told me was allergic to dogs?
Yeah, that was Miss Rose.
Poor lady, she's a mess.
Oh, even with all the dogs almost gone,
I can still barely breathe in here.
Maybe this was a bad idea.
Just one more breed.
See? No allergens with this breed.
Totally hypoallergenic.
I didn't even know we had a hairless here.
How precious is she?
The only thing is, Miss Rose,
she's got just about as many allergies as you do.
Do you think you're gonna be able
to keep up her allergy shots regularly?
Oh, I've got a deal over with Dr. George, the local vet?
As much business as we've brought him through the years,
it shouldn't be a problem at all.
Little miss.
Sadie... her name is Sadie.
Sadie... I love it, and her.
Thanks so much, guys.
You've done so much for these poor pups,
and I'm just never gonna be able to thank you enough.
And I know you're gonna find homes
for all the rest of them tomorrow night.

Night, Jack.
Night, Blair-- night, "Cryan."
Night, Jackson.
Jackson.
Merry Christmas, son.
Oh, it's good to see you.
Look how big you've gotten, you're a man now.
Hi, Mom.
So what are you doing in this neighborhood?
Are they fostering you around here now?
No, just grabbing some last-minute supplies
for this dog shelter event I'm helping out with
over at the community center.
Oh, look at you, Mr. Do-Gooder.
Working for an animal shelter?
You're working on some silly merit badge or something?
Real funny, Mom, mock my progress.
Great parenting. I'm just kidding.
Lighten up, goodness.
Hey, I saw your dad a couple of months ago.
Where, jail? How'd you know?
He's still a mess, but I'm doing better.
I've been sober for three whole days now.
What are you going to do

I am celebrating.
Who are you, my AA rep? Goodness.

So how's your foster family treating you?
I don't know.
They want me to move with them to Arizona.
You're thinking about it.
But you know, you could always move in with me.
Yeah, right.
No, no, I'm serious.
Really?
For sure.
Do you have any plans for Christmas?
Well, you know, I don't know.
I've got this party thing,
So the day before Christmas Eve.
I can do that.
So, um, where do you want to meet?
Goodness, I don't know.
Maybe we could meet at that old diner on Seventh?
3:00 p.m.? That sounds great.

So you guys think we'll find homes
for our last three friends tonight at our big event?
I sure hope so since we haven't had much luck
with these three, even with all the marketing.
I'm fairly sure with Hillary at the helm,
with her elf girl costume, some friends,
we'll have no problem finding homes for those pups.
Hey, I placed a few dogs myself in recent days too.
Ryan, dear, two is not a few.
Look up the definition.
Anyways, I guess you did all right.
Whoa, you called her Ryan instead of "Cryan."
Like a whole new side of Jack we've never seen before.
I suppose I'm trying to backpedal a bit,
maybe get off the naughty list before Christmas Eve.
Fat chance, you can't backpedal that fast, buddy.
And anyway, I'll place a few tonight.
Yeah? So why don't we have a little bit
of an unfriendly wager over who can place the most dogs?
Fine, an unfriendly wager it is.

Yeah, but what does that have to do with anything?
You're the one Jack has a big fat crush on.
Yeah, but I haven't been around much lately,

Why is it that we're the only ones

I think we're blinded by love.

still love Ryan over there,

Okay, it was a joke.
Don't go crying about it.
No, it was mean.

Ugh, only these awful, never-ending text books I'm grossly tired of.
That's too bad.
So what do you think about this older girl/ younger guy thing?
Personally, I don't usually go for younger guys.
I tend to think relationships are much stronger when
both people are about the same age, you know?
Huh, guess I never really thought of it that way.
Do you even know any girls your own age, Jack?
What about Ryan?
You guys are about the same age, right?
Yeah, but she doesn't count.

Probably 20 seconds.
Did she cry in pain when she came to?
Not that we heard.
No, she did, just a little bit, though.

Well, I mean, keep-- keep trying.
I mean, I keep trying.

I'm Ryan. I work at the animal shelter with Jack. Is he here?
Are you the hot sister?
No. I'm the not-hot sister.
The one who gets on Jack's nerves.
Don't feel bad. I get on Jack's nerves sometimes too.
Uh, Jack, a girl's here for you.
And she sure is pretty.
Cute kids.
Good kids too. So why are you here?
I was going to stop by your place earlier.
I just wanted to see if you wanted to come with me
to pick Petunia up.
And why would you do that?
I mean, I totally demolished the back of the shelter
you worked so hard to clean.
Yeah, well, I got a text from Blair this morning
saying that you came back in last night to help clean it all up.
And with how angry I've been at my mom in the past,
I can't even imagine the emotions you go through with yours, Jack.
Yeah, but that still doesn't excuse the things I did.
I'm so sorry, Ryan.
So, why were you going to stop by my place then?
I mean, Hillary went to see her dad, so she's gone.
I wasn't coming to see Hillary. No?
No.
I was going to go over to give you this.
Merry Christmas.
It's nothing much.
Christmas was a little tight this year.
No, Jack, this is really sweet. Thank you.
Don't mention it.
But why did you get me a gift? I mean...
Okay, it's just a silly used book, Ryan..
No need to make a big deal about it.
All right, fine. Should we go get Petunia then?
You know, you don't give yourself enough credit as a writer.
Your stuff is actually pretty good.
You went through my notebook when you found it, didn't you?
Well, it fell open with my hand--
What else was I supposed to do?
Jack, I write those stories for me.
Not for anyone else to see.
You love other people's writing, don't you?
Maybe you shouldn't be so selfish with your own.
You want to talk to me about being selfish?
Okay. I'm working on it. Yeah. I know.
Well, this place is officially closed.
So what do we do with Petunia now?
I guess I'll take her to the city shelter before they close
and hope for the best.
How long do you think she'll last?
Can we not talk about that, please?
I hope at least through Christmas.
It's not really our decision to decide anymore, is it?
All right. I'm gonna go.
Do you guys want to hug her before we leave?
I just-- I can't do it.
(yipping) Hello.
You know, you're the first real family I've ever had.
When we get in there, we gotta be real quiet, okay?
Jack, is that you? It's Christmas Eve.
You missed dinner with the boys.
Jack, you're in big trouble now.
You know you can't have a dog here, right?
That's why we gotta be super quiet about it.
Is he our Christmas present from you, Jack?
No-- she has to spend the night here tonight,
but then tomorrow, she's gonna stay somewhere else.
But I already love her. She's pretty.
In an ugly kind of way.
What's her name? Petunia.
But I also like to call her Tunie.
Hello, Tunie. I'm Tony.
Be careful, because she just got hit by a car yesterday.
She's a little fragile.
She isn't gonna die, is she?
Of course not, Tony. She's fine now.
Right, Jack?
Yep. But she needs some rest.
And so do you guys. You've got a big day tomorrow.
Christmas and new parents? Get to bed, okay?
Merry Christmas, you guys.
Merry Christmas, Jack.
Merry Christmas, Miss Petunia.
Merry Christmas, Jack. Merry Christmas, Miss Tunie.
And who is Petunia? Uh-oh.
It's the boys' last day here,
and you just bring a stray dog into our house
without our rmission?
She didn't have anywhere else to go.
And it's Christmas.
Jack, you know the rules. No pets.
Where else was I supposed to take her?
To the pound perhaps? That's where stray dogs should go.
And then they'd kill her within a day or two, if not sooner.
That dog is not our problem. But she is my problem.
The dog can't stay here, okay, Jack? Absolutely not.
It has to go today.
She's not an it, Lou. She's a she.
And if she goes, then so do I.
Don't be ridiculous, Jack. It's Christmas.
Just find a place for the dog and then come on back home, okay?
I can't. I won't.
If this can't be her home, it can't be mine either.
I have to provide for her now.
And when the boys are gone,
she'll be the only family I have left.
I know how stubborn you are, Jack, but this is absurd.
You don't have to worry about it, Lou.
You don't have to worry about me anymore.
I'm gonna go, you guys. And you're not in trouble.
I just came by to give you these presents I want you to have.
Go on. Open them.
Wow! Talkies!
Yep-- Now that you guys
are each going to have your own room,
you're gonna need a way to talk back and forth,
you know, when it's past your bedtime,
just so your new folks don't catch you sneaking around.
Thanks, Jack.
Yeah, thanks, Jack.
And I want you to know
that I'm going to visit as much as possible.
We love you, Jack. Yeah, we love you, Jack.
I love you guys too. Brothers forever?
It's a salad tongy thing.
I saw you broke the last one you had.
It's a sporty magazine.
I know you're into that kind of stuff.
Jack. Please don't go.
It doesn't have to be like this, Jack.
You guys are moving in a couple weeks, right?
So I think it kind of does.
Anyways, I'll be back to get my stuff later.
And Merry Christmas. Take care.
I know I'm going to juvie. And I'm okay with that.
I've been there. I can survive.
Well, you would. But there's something I need to tell you--
Wait, Art, please. Just let me finish.
Anyway, I'll survive there.
Look, I need you to take Tunie.
At least until I get a place of my own.
Then I'll take her back.
If she goes to the city shelter,
she won't survive.
I don't think I can do that, Jack.
What I'm trying to say is, I don't think
I can split you and that ugly little dog apart.
You belong together.
So I'm asking you to come home with me for Christmas.
Wait. But as my probation officer, can you do that?
Isn't that a violation of protocol?
Well, as of yesterday, I am officially retired.
So I'm just a friend now.
You retired?
Mm-hmm. I am a free man. Just like you.
If I go home with you, what's in it for me?
Tina's pumpkin pie.
You drive a hard bargain, Art.
But, uh, I think I can suffer through it.
(Art) Sweetheart, are you sure you're okay with all this?
Well, he does eat a lot. (laughing)
Oh, honey, I'm okay with it. You know I like Jack.
And the dog is very well-behaved.
But it'll only be for just a little while.
He can stay as long as he needs to. They both can.
Look, we've taken in nieces, nephews,
and friends of all sorts over the years now.
I think I can handle it.
Besides, with the kids gone, we have all this space.
And I like it better when it's not so quiet
around the house anyway.
Well, with Jack around, I don't think quiet will be an issue.
(laughter)
Don't I know it.
So, what's her name again? Petunia.
Oh. Her name is Petunia.
Well, Miss Petunia, welcome to the family.
So do you always come here for Christmas?
Yep, been coming here for years now.
Couldn't imagine being anywhere else really.
And we couldn't think of having Christmas without her.
Blair's like family to us now.
Our kids think of her as their little sister.
Where are your kids anyway?
Oh, they're having Christmas lunch with their own families.
Pretty soon they'll come running in.
Like an army of hungry hooligans.
(doorbell ringing)
Ooh, Jack, would you get that, please?
It could be them.
Surprise! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas, Ryan. Right back atcha, Jack.
And what's this?
Just a few of my short stories.
All edited and cleaned up for public viewing.
You have no idea how happy I am to see you, girl!
You look so good. Thank you, Jack. For her.
