Quigley (2003)

1. Hey!

2. Hey, hey, hey!

3. I'm okay, I'm okay.

4. I'm okay.

5. Don't you tell anyone what you just saw here.

6. Yes sir.

7. I want everyone that owns a dog executed.

8. Executed sir?

9. Fired.

10. - Yes sir. - Right now.

11. - Yes sir. - Go!

12. - Do it! - I'll clean it up

13. right away sir.

14. I've come to the conclusion

15. that you have the ability to run things

16. in my way in my absence.

17. - Thanks. - Do you hear me?

18. - Yeah, I hear ya. - Good.

19. You know it never ceases to amaze me,

20. you put a little bit of pressure on our opponent

21. they way you did this morning,

22. they come right around to our way of thinking.

23. I really had a good time.

24. It always works.

25. And everything we do in this company

26. from now on is gonna work.

27. Don't forget out appointment in the morning.

28. I want to play my virtual reality CD-ROM for you.

29. Right, at 11.

30. Hey, why don't we do it now?

31. I've got time.

32. No, no.

33. We'll both do it together in the morning when we're fresh.

34. No, no, I have a better idea.

35. You will show the CD-ROM at the stockholder's meeting

36. a week from today.

37. Then they will know our cutbacks,

38. they will understand your bonus,

39. and they will see how I can cut to the bone like a butcher.

40. And if any of those idiot savant snot pocket kids

41. come up and threaten to quit,

42. tell 'em they've already been fired.

43. - You got it. - Okay.

44. Oh boy.

45. It's not easy.

46. No.

47. And so we will be making sizeable cutbacks

48. in order to remain profitable for the coming season.

49. In my absence, Dexter Pearlsley will be Commander in Chief.

50. We will be cutting salaries,

51. extended vacations will be limited to one week.

52. Yearly bonuses will be eliminated this year

53. and Dexter will discuss our new animal control policy,

54. which is very strict, by the way.

55. There are other sweeping changes

56. which Dexter will send out to you on your e-mail.

57. And for those of you who wish to,

58. you might start looking for another job.

59. In fact, find one, because in my opinion,

60. you're useless here

61. when you don't have the courage that I have

62. to make profit no matter what it takes.

63. What are we to do with him?

64. He has no redeeming value whatsoever.

65. The man has never done a good deed

66. in his entire life.

67. What about the dog?

68. He didn't run over the dog, did he?

69. His jerking of the steering wheel was a reflex,

70. hardly an achievement.

71. That was cool.

72. Where am I?

73. We've looked long and hard and couldn't find one moment

74. that you actually helped someone other than yourself.

75. He doesn't like the dogs.

76. If he wants to go back.

77. Well that's cool.

78. They just made a mistake.

79. That's okay, everyone makes mistakes.

80. That's not what you told your employees.

81. You remember the ones that made mistakes

82. and then you fired, don't you?

83. Yeah.

84. Like the temp you fired last week.

85. She needed that job; her mother's sick.

86. Or have you forgotten about the pregnant girl

87. who has no insurance because you cut benefits.

88. Look at all the cruel and inhuman jokes

89. you played on your brother and most loyal employee,

90. Dexter Pearlsley.

91. So, when do I get to go back.

92. Do you have a problem with dogs?

93. Yes.

94. He didn't hit the dog.

95. It's been decided.

96. They want you to go back as a dog.

97. Me, as a dog?

98. Going back?

99. I can't stand dogs.

100. Your name is Quigley.

101. Please tell me you can see me.

102. Oh they said I'll be the only one

103. who'll be able to see you as you once were.

104. Everyone else will see you as Quigley.

105. Am I a talking dog?

106. Oh no, I'm afraid not.

107. You can talk to me, but I can't help you.

108. Say you could bark if you like.

109. Why don't you give it a try?

110. Just.

111. That was alright.

112. You okay there?

113. You gotta help me.

114. Oh not an option Archie.

115. I'm here to watch and keep you out of trouble

116. without lifting a finger to assist you.

117. Well this isn't good.

118. Tell me what to do.

119. They gave you two assignments.

120. And if you do them well, I suspect they might consider

121. allowing you through the gates.

122. What if I can't do them?

123. Oh I think they'll find someone else.

124. Someone more cooperative.

125. Okay.

126. Let's get it over with.

127. Oh, I don't think they'd approve of your hurried attitude.

128. That was a dumb thing to say.

129. Dogs are always in a hurry.

130. Come on.

131. Oh, oh, okay.

132. On your way, on your way.

133. Oh baby, you're so cute.

134. What's his name?

135. His name is Quigley and he loves to have his ears pinched.

136. Oh, so precious.

137. I know, we have to go right now.

138. But I'm sure Quigley thanks you for the ear pinches.

139. Don't you boy?

140. You owned all of this

141. and you never did anything nice for anyone?

142. I was in a hurry.

143. I wanted to be a multi-billionaire before I was 40.

144. There's something you need to do

145. and there isn't much time.

146. I'm a dog.

147. What's that got to do with anything?

148. Because dogs don't get along with me.

149. They've never liked me.

150. They chase me, they bite me.

151. I step in their poop.

152. I hate dogs.

153. Well that's gonna make things a bit more, challenging.

154. Isn't it?

155. Well, you're on your own.

156. And good luck.

157. Okay, tell me what you want me to do.

158. It's not what I want you to do.

159. This is something you have to do for yourself.

160. From deep down within your own heart.

161. If you have one.

162. I don't have a clue what you're talking about.

163. I'll see you when you're finished.

164. Give me a hint.

165. What is this?

166. How many times have I told people

167. to keep this door locked?

168. Well?

169. I don't know what Archie did with it.

170. Where could he have hidden the only copy

171. of his prized virtual reality CD-ROM?

172. The stockholder's meeting is tomorrow.

173. I know, I know.

174. I gave him my word I'd play the CD on his behalf.

175. Well short of tearing his office apart,

176. I'm not sure what else to do.

177. This is not a good way

178. for me to celebrate my 35th birthday, Sarah.

179. I...

180. But happy birthday anyway.

181. Come on, things are gonna work out fine.

182. You'll see.

183. I mean isn't there anything I can do to help this?

184. I was just reading the last memo I got from Archie.

185. He envisioned our interactive games

186. to perform like no others.

187. He saw the AC Diamex

188. with the dual pads and the triple joysticks

189. to be playing in every home in America.

190. Well I mean they are really fun to play.

191. You know when you have to drop one joystick

192. and just as quickly pick the other one up again,

193. I mean you can't help

194. but become completely obsessed with this game.

195. Exactly.

196. But there are flaws in the system, Sarah.

197. How someone has been in my supply closet.

198. Someone has placed a chair in front of the door

199. without folding it up first.

200. I swear this place is full of morons.

201. What is this?

202. So, you were here and now you're not.

203. But, I will find you.

204. Alright, the order of the day is to find that CD, Sarah.

205. Archie must've had a unique hiding place,

206. someplace he knew that none of us would look in.

207. Okay, well why is the CD so important Dex?

208. I mean did Archie solve the flaws of the AC Diamex player?

209. No, no, no, no.

210. But I think I've figured out how to correct the player.

211. The cost is another matter.

212. I just,

213. I just don't want everyone thinking

214. that the cutbacks and the changes are my idea.

215. Archie— - Is gone, Dex.

216. Archie is gone.

217. He put his trust in you,

218. so I would have to assume that whatever changes you make

219. in his absence would be made with his blessing.

220. Let's just say that I want to keep Archie's wishes intact,

221. for now.

222. Now, get somebody downstairs and have another look around.

223. That CD's gotta be somewhere.

224. And let's find it.

225. Alright.

226. If Archie thought I was gonna take responsibility

227. for all these changes, he really did have a screw loose.

228. Archie!

229. I know you're wondering what I'm doing.

230. I'm gonna do everything I can

231. to make sure that your last wish happens.

232. But know this, after I play that CD,

233. I'm doing things my way.

234. What did you do that for?

235. I hope God forgives you.

236. Did you hear what he said?

237. I thought you were learning some self control.

238. Don't you feel some remorse or something?

239. Okay.

240. I'm sure I picked up the keys.

241. But I need the keys to get in my office.

242. And what about the really nice move you just made

243. on the briefcase?

244. When dogs have to go, they go quick.

245. And I hurt my knee, lifting my leg to pee.

246. It's not easy being a dog.

247. I wanna know are you here to help me or what?

248. I'm here to observe, not help.

249. No one will know.

250. Are you telling me he knows every move I make?

251. Every single move.

252. That's not good.

253. I'll be outside.

254. You must be kidding me.

255. What do they think I am, the cleaning service?

256. I am Frank, the janitor.

257. what a sad state of affairs we are living in.

258. Oh, that's, that's great, that's terrific.

259. I see you really know how to take great care of yourself.

260. What's that supposed to mean?

261. Well I don't see any food or water.

262. This could be a very long night Archie.

263. Okay.

264. How do I say I'm sorry?

265. It's a little late for sorry.

266. No, I'm sincere.

267. I'm sorry, I want to apologize.

268. What are you apologizing for?

269. Everything.

270. That's not how it works, Archie.

271. You don't even have a clue what you've done, do you?

272. You're so used to being a jerk all the time,

273. you think that doing wrong is right.

274. I'll see you in the morning.

275. Wait, wait, wait.

276. I am a control freak.

277. I am number one.

278. Until, until just recently.

279. That's the whole point, Archie.

280. There is no number one.

281. You should've had some friends.

282. And maybe even a girlfriend.

283. Why?

284. You can't trust men, you can't trust your friends,

285. and women are like dogs.

286. You're gonna have a really hard time with that one.

287. Say listen, while we're on the subject,

288. let me ask you something.

289. Okay.

290. What do fire escapes, bullet proof vests,

291. windshield wipers and laser printers have in common?

292. That's a trick question.

293. Nope, but I'll tell you the answer,

294. just so you don't lose any sleep tonight.

295. All of those things I just named,

296. were invented by women.

297. No they weren't.

298. Have a good night Archie.

299. Hi cutie.

300. Hi sweetie.

301. What are you doing in a broom closet, huh?

302. Archie'd have a heart attack if he saw you

303. in his beloved building.

304. But he isn't here anymore, so.

305. The only person we have to worry about is.

306. Frank!

307. Get in here!

308. Dexter.

309. Frank, there are paw prints on this desk.

310. This is impossible.

311. Could someone have left a window open last night?

312. Not unless someone is going home after I did.

313. And I do believe I was the last one

314. out of the building last night.

315. Frank, if there is a wild animal loose in this building,

316. I want it found by whatever means necessary.

317. This I will do, Mr. Pearlsley.

318. You're so cute.

319. Sarah!

320. Is that you?

321. Sarah?

322. Sarah what is that?

323. This is looking like a dog Mr. Pearlsley.

324. Well get it.

325. Now?

326. Yes now.

327. Go!

328. Doggie!

329. Doggie!

330. Where are your papers.

331. Don't hurt him.

332. Don't hurt him?

333. Sarah how could you touch a wild animal like that?

334. Call the guards.

335. Call animal control.

336. And someone bring my fishing nets.

337. Once we have captured that little beast.

338. I want to have a word with you in my office.

339. And did you find that CD last night.

340. No, Dex, we tore Archie's office apart.

341. We didn't find anything.

342. Oh great.

343. That's just great.

344. Now I've got a wild animal loose in the building,

345. a missing CD and a stockholder's meeting in,

346. four hours.

347. I expected a lot more of you.

348. Archie would've been very, very disappointed in you, Sarah.

349. Archie didn't even know me Dex.

350. You're not a very nice doggie.

351. If I am not knowing better,

352. I would say as if you are trying to get even with me.

353. There's something funny here.

354. You wait and see, Mr. Smarty Pants.

355. What goes around, is coming around.

356. Got him trapped.

357. You two stick with me.

358. What do we do?

359. Stay with me.

360. Okay.

361. Where?

362. We're going upstairs.

363. What for?

364. To catch the dog.

365. We're trying to catch a dog, remember?

366. Yeah well, why do you think the dog went upstairs?

367. I don't know.

368. Maybe he thought he was trapped or something.

369. Who set the trap?

370. You know, why don't you guys just go downstairs

371. and guard the gate?

372. I think I can handle this on my own.

373. Well someone must know where the trap is.

374. I don't know what the big deal is.

375. How big is the trap?

376. That dog, my desk.

377. Here, let me get it, I.

378. Guards, come down to my office right away.

379. That dog is waiting here for you to throw him out.

380. Over.

381. Who is this?

382. And what office are you calling from?

383. I'm Dexter Pearlsley, who do you think?

384. Uh, I can't hear you very well.

385. Over and out.

386. Here, tie him up.

387. I really think he's trying to tell us something, Dexter.

388. Look, look in his eyes.

389. Carol, this Dexter.

390. I want you to get those guards down here.

391. Call animal control so I can get this filthy beast

392. out of my office.

393. Yes, Dexter.

394. I think I'm gonna keep him.

395. Don't be ridiculous Sarah, that's a dog!

396. You know how Archie hated those little varmints.

397. Dex, Archie is gone!

398. You're the boss now.

399. Yes, I know.

400. And as the boss, I think that the company should be

401. run exactly as Archie wanted it run.

402. I mean look at how successful he was.

403. Look at what he accomplished.

404. He was miserable.

405. And angry.

406. Sometimes you just have to make sacrifices.

407. So in Archie's case, you really think all those sacrifices

408. were worth it?

409. I don't know.

410. Why have I never seen you before?

411. Where have you been?

412. I've always been right down the hall.

413. Look Sarah, we both have long term contracts,

414. but if we make any mistakes running this company,

415. we can be replaced.

416. Okay well what can I do?

417. Just organize another search of Archie's office

418. and I'll take care of this dog thing.

419. Carol!

420. What are you trying to do?

421. This is incredible.

422. This absolutely incredible.

423. You are so cute.

424. I don't get it.

425. Do you want me to open the drawer?

426. What, did you hide something in there earlier, huh?

427. There are no dog bones in here.

428. Trust me on that one.

429. Oh, I'm not sure what we should do with that.

430. There's supposed to be some pretty disturbing things on it.

431. Wait, Archie wanted that

432. played at the stockholder's meeting.

433. Put it down!

434. No!

435. No.

436. Oh no.

437. Look what you've done!

438. Look at this.

439. Not a trace of him sir.

440. Where did you look?

441. Look, we, um.

442. I don't know what you mean sir.

443. The dog.

444. I'm talking about the dog.

445. We had to look for the nets.

446. So we wouldn't get attacked.

447. But we're ready now sir.

448. That's if you are.

449. Who hired you two?

450. To do what sir?

451. Nevermind.

452. Just follow me.

453. And don't get lost.

454. Who got lost?

455. Lost?

456. How did someone get lost?

457. Come on, before he tries to ditch us.

458. Is that?

459. Yes.

460. That was the only copy.

461. What have you done?

462. I'm glad the CD broke.

463. I didn't wanna play it anyway.

464. Well what are you gonna tell the stockholders?

465. I'm gonna tell them that our new multi-media player

466. is gonna knock the socks off of the competition

467. and that we're gonna need a larger advertising budget

468. than we thought.

469. Well should we anticipate any changes, Dex?

470. No, no.

471. No changes.

472. I think Archie would be very proud

473. of what we're about to do.

474. We're going to see to it

475. that he didn't life his life in vain

476. and that AC Tech lives on forever.

477. See, you don't really have to be as mean

478. as people believed Archie to be, do you?

479. I hope not.

480. This dog is so cute.

481. Yeah.

482. - Pet him. - Huh?

483. Come on, pet him.

484. I don't pet dogs.

485. Try.

486. Come on.

487. Hello.

488. See it's not so bad, is it?

489. Hey.

490. Wouldn't it be fun to have a dog like this?

491. Would you like to have dinner with me this evening?

492. Yeah, I would.

493. My arm, my.

494. Do we get it?

495. I got it.

496. Alright.

497. Stop, stop.

498. Get out of here.

499. We just.

500. This way, this way.

501. I'll meet you in my office in 10 minutes.

502. Maybe we're just on a break here.

503. Now, where were we?

504. - Dogs. - Yes.

505. I agree.

506. I think dogs would be a great idea.

507. I mean, who knows,

508. it might be just what I need to smooth all my rough edges.

509. Keep me from being so mean, as you put it.

510. Speaking of dogs, where is he?

511. This is so strange.

512. And wasn't Archie the only one who knew where the...

513. So, how'd it go?

514. I don't wanna talk about it.

515. You have a hard time seeing the good side of things

516. most of the time, don't you?

517. Sweeney, I'm not in the mood.

518. What is the next assignment, what's next?

519. Oh I gotta go.

520. What did I do wrong now?

521. Oh.

522. You can come out now.

523. You.

524. You have no idea how hard this is.

525. I think if I'm not mistaken, they refer to it

526. as a dog's life.

527. What's next?

528. I'm sorry, you in a hurry Archie?

529. I'd have a better time cleaning a short person's teeth.

530. Oh I see.

531. So it's just rush in and rush out

532. and that solves everything, right?

533. They won't let me in heaven

534. until I complete your assignments.

535. I've completed one.

536. Which one is the next?

537. This dog thing is getting old!

538. Let's take a walk huh?

539. What do you say big guy?

540. There's a young family man, a very good man,

541. who's in dire financial straits.

542. As Archie I could easily help.

543. Archie's gone.

544. But they would like Quigley to try to help with the matter.

545. Quigley.

546. Who is this guy?

547. Your brother, Woodward.

548. My brother Woodward?

549. I haven't talked to my brother in years.

550. Woodward is a sap head.

551. He spends more time being married

552. and raising children than he has sense for.

553. So what are you saying?

554. I'm saying you can't help a guy like Woodward.

555. Well did you ever try?

556. No reason to.

557. Tell me something Archie,

558. do you even know what he does for a living?

559. What his passion in life is?

560. I didn't know he had one.

561. And I don't care because Woodward takes

562. a lot of his measly salary and gives it to charities.

563. Now if that's not a sign of weakness,

564. you tell me what is.

565. Giving to charity is a sign of great strength.

566. You'll understand that Archie.

567. And we have to go.

568. Wait!

569. You're always walking away.

570. Okay.

571. Yeah!

572. Yes!

573. Oh yeah, I got ya.

574. I got ya.

575. Oh yeah.

576. I failed.

577. In my carelessness I lost him.

578. Quigley, come here boy.

579. I know.

580. Say, you're so omnipresent.

581. Why don't you tell me where he is?

582. I'm sorry.

583. I am, I'm sorry.

584. Stupid.

585. No, I'm not ready to give up.

586. You gotta remember, I'm relatively new at this.

587. It's only been maybe, what, 60, 62 years?

588. Someone musta taken him.

589. But where would someone take a dog?

590. In you go.

591. And in ya stay.

592. This isn't funny!

593. Of course it is.

594. Hey, I'm just happy to see you.

595. You look okay.

596. I'm not.

597. Look carefully.

598. A grown man, locked inside of the dog pound.

599. Now get me outta here, or adopt me.

600. Just adopt me.

601. How does an observing guardian angel

602. stage a dog pound break?

603. They're sending another dog in here with me.

604. Into your little jail cell.

605. Ah.

606. Okay.

607. Stay.

608. Okay, that's not funny.

609. That's not funny.

610. Alright?

611. I'll get 'em both back, you'll see.

612. Nobody runs away on Wally Sprigs and gets away with it.

613. What's my first move?

614. Because I don't know my brother at all.

615. Well the way I see it, Archie didn't know your brother.

616. But you're not Archie now, are you?

617. What do I do now that I'm Quigley?

618. You got me.

619. Well I'm drawing a blank.

620. I'm lost, I can't figure it out.

621. Well that's fine, but there's a fog bank

622. waiting to collect us if we fail.

623. Hey, do you remember you helped me escape

624. from the dog pound?

625. I did not!

626. Yes you did!

627. I did not!

628. I only whistled.

629. It was that stupid man who let you out.

630. I had nothing to do with the fact

631. that the gate opened wide enough for you to escape.

632. I coulda done that if I was Archie.

633. You're right, you could have.

634. Now I'm gonna go take a walk.

635. I'll be around in case you get, lost again.

636. I didn't get lost.

637. Right.

638. - I never get lost. - Right.

639. Hey!

640. What's your name?

641. I'm Megan Channing.

642. Would you like to meet my family?

643. Okay.

644. You have to be real quiet, okay?

645. My mommy's name is Joanne and my brother's name is Brian.

646. But I guess you don't have to know that, right?

647. 'Cause you're a dog.

648. Where'd you get the dog Megan?

649. He saved my life.

650. How did he do that?

651. Well there was this truck coming towards me

652. and he pushed me out of the way.

653. Oh my, when did this happen?

654. Just now.

655. My ball bounced in the middle of the street

656. and there was this big truck coming towards me

657. and he pushed me out of the way.

658. Cool.

659. You should hug the doggie Mama.

660. Well yes, I guess I should.

661. Well he looks well fed.

662. Why don't we get you both cleaned up

663. and then we'll go look for his owner

664. so he can go back home?

665. Can we play with him first?

666. Well I think someone must miss him very much.

667. Don't you guys?

668. Can we make up signs that say that we found a dog?

669. Yes, of course we can.

670. That is a wonderful idea.

671. If no one wants him, can we keep him Mama?

672. Well it's a little early to discuss that Brian.

673. But you know what,

674. why don't you go and get some of Frisky's food

675. and see if this little guy's hungry?

676. Frisky was our old dog.

677. But he died of old age.

678. He went to heaven where he can run in the flowers

679. and tall grass.

680. Huh Mom?

681. That's right.

682. We really miss Frisky.

683. You know why don't we get you guys cleaned up

684. and get everybody fed.

685. And then we'll go make those signs up.

686. Can he come with us when we hang up the signs?

687. Yeah, of course he can.

688. We'll use Frisky's old leash.

689. Okay.

690. Thanks boy.

691. Go get it.

692. Good boy.

693. I know.

694. I'm just making sure he doesn't get lost again.

695. I won't help him!

696. Hey guys.

697. Hey honey.

698. Hey, who's this?

699. Well he doesn't have a collar so we don't know who he is.

700. He saved my life Daddy.

701. - He did? - Um hmm.

702. He pushed her out of the way from a big truck.

703. So she wouldn't get smashed.

704. We hung up signs all over the neighborhood.

705. So his owner can take him back home.

706. Well that's really smart.

707. Who thought of that?

708. I did.

709. High five.

710. Good job.

711. I think we should keep him.

712. Well, I do owe you a great deal of gratitude

713. for saving my little girl.

714. Has he been fed and given some water?

715. Yes Daddy.

716. We've been playing with him all day.

717. Well, so how was your day?

718. You go first.

719. Well, the delivery service told me

720. they were cutting back my hours.

721. So I'll have to find another night job.

722. But the consulting business is kinda fun.

723. - Yeah? - Yeah.

724. I just wish it paid a little bit more.

725. But I did tell to this guy how to run his business

726. and he offered me a job.

727. What kinda job?

728. Good job?

729. Bad job?

730. - None of the above? - Well.

731. Nah I mean it's a, it's be a paycut.

732. So it's not gonna work out.

733. Look, everything will work out

734. when you finish your new video game.

735. Look, it's never gonna happen.

736. There's just, there's just not enough time in the day.

737. Your video games are sensational.

738. And they're almost finished.

739. Besides, you made a promise to me a long time ago

740. that you were gonna make video games for kids,

741. even their parents would approve of.

742. If only your brother would've helped us in some small way.

743. Look, just, let's not go there, okay?

744. Archie's in his own world someplace.

745. Look, I asked him for help once, once.

746. And he completely humiliated me.

747. You're not angry about the dog, are you?

748. No, no.

749. Daddy, can the dog go to bed with us?

750. No, the dog's still a stranger.

751. But I'll tell ya what.

752. Let's make a bed for him in the utility room

753. and put some paper down for him.

754. That way if he barks if won't bother any of us.

755. - Okay. - Alright.

756. - Bye. - Goodnight.

757. - Bye. - 'Night.

758. We got good kids.

759. Joanne.

760. Oh, isn't he cute?

761. I think he's reading the paper.

762. And I think you've been working too hard.

763. Why don't you come sit down and have some breakfast?

764. No, no, no.

765. I swear, his eyes are going back and forth,

766. like he's reading the, the stock exchange thing down there.

767. Come on.

768. Okay everybody, grab a hand.

769. Lord, thank you for our many blessings

770. and for the miracle of life and our health,

771. which we treasure.

772. Amen.

773. Looks good.

774. So has anyone called for the dog yet?

775. Not one.

776. Good, we can keep him.

777. Not so fast.

778. You know that dog belongs to somebody out there guys.

779. And it's our responsibility to make sure

780. that they get back together.

781. Maybe we can check the signs and see if they're still up.

782. Okay.

783. While we do that, can we bring the dog?

784. Excuse me?

785. While we do that, can we bring the dog?

786. Speaking of which, why don't you take the dog

787. into the backyard and see if he has to go potty?

788. Okay.

789. How you doing, you making progress?

790. I might have made a mistake.

791. Might've?

792. What's that supposed to mean?

793. I shoulda helped him.

794. You can still do that.

795. No, I can't.

796. It's too late.

797. It's never too late to change Archie.

798. Look at me.

799. I'm only 10 inches tall.

800. What can I do?

801. Go help them.

802. I have to get back in the bushes.

803. That was a nice move.

804. Thank you.

805. You have just finished level three Megan.

806. Push the red button to continue.

807. Use the correct button quickly.

808. You must hurry or start all over.

809. Oh, I almost got him.

810. Lift off, lift off, lift off.

811. Oh sorry Megan, not enough to give.

812. - Here. - Okay.

813. Welcome Brian.

814. It's your turn.

815. - Welcome. - Hi.

816. Wanna watch my daddy's game?

817. You think he can play with us?

818. No, but he can watch.

819. Come here and sit down.

820. Come on.

821. This is really neat.

822. You think he understands?

823. Probably not.

824. Lift off, lift off, lift off.

825. Yes!

826. - You made it to level four. - That's too bad.

827. We could use an extra player.

828. Three people?

829. With Mom it would be four.

830. You think you could play?

831. Let's show him how

832. and see if he can use the stick.

833. He needs hands and fingers.

834. Nevermind.

835. You can watch if you like.

836. Hello.

837. Hey.

838. I have something I wanna show you.

839. - Oh yeah? - Um hmm.

840. Come here.

841. Yes!

842. Nice one.

843. That is the reason

844. you're going to finish your video games, Mr. Channing.

845. What would I ever do without you?

846. You'd think of something.

847. Unimaginable.

848. Do you think if the signs are still up

849. we'll be able to keep the dog?

850. If no one wants him back,

851. I'm sure Mom and Dad would let us keep him.

852. But what if the signs are gone?

853. Then we'll have to make up more signs.

854. We don't wanna keep someone else's dog, do we?

855. No, I guess not.

856. Promise me you won't tell anyone where I went.

857. Promise?

858. Yeah.

859. But you promise to come right back

860. after you check if the signs are still up, right?

861. I'll come right back.

862. - Okay. - Now stay in my room

863. and pretend we're playing together.

864. - Okay? - Okay.

865. you're not very funny.

866. You have to go potty?

867. What, are you afraid I'm gonna lock you out?

868. How about if I leave the door open?

869. Listen to me, I'm talking to a dog.

870. Oh boy.

871. Why aren't you playing with the kids?

872. Hmm.

873. Megan, Brian?

874. Megan!

875. Brian?

876. Brian, where's your sister?

877. I don't know.

878. What do you mean?

879. She was just up here playing with you

880. a few minutes ago.

881. Wasn't she?

882. Yeah.

883. Well then where is she?

884. Brian!

885. She went out.

886. She went out?

887. What do you mean she went out?

888. Where, when?

889. I don't know.

890. Brian, Brian, think.

891. I don't know!

892. Alright, come on, let's go.

893. Woodward, Megan went out this morning

894. and I can't find her anywhere.

895. No, I haven't called the police yet.

896. Okay.

897. Do you wanna go after him?

898. Uh, he can find his way back.

899. Um, what about our daughter?

900. Nothing yet.

901. But it's just been a short while.

902. She's probably right here in the neighborhood somewhere.

903. Our baby's out there all alone.

904. Please help us find her.

905. Do you have a recent photo of your daughter Ms. Channing?

906. Of course.

907. Please come in.

908. Hey, we're gonna need some help.

909. I know.

910. Well do something then!

911. I can't.

912. No, do something, do something.

913. I can't.

914. I'm just an observing guardian angel.

915. Listen Archie.

916. What?

917. Can I have a hug?

918. What?

919. A hug.

920. No!

921. Hey, hey!

922. Why did you do that?

923. I hope you have what it takes to solve this problem.

924. I gotta go.

925. - Megan! - Oh my God.

926. - Oh my God are you okay? - Megan.

927. That's quite a dog you've got there.

928. What do you mean?

929. He found her and was bringing her home

930. when we located them.

931. Thank you boy.

932. Thank you.

933. Well everything seems to be okay.

934. You folks have a good evening.

935. - Thank you. - thank you.

936. Our pleasure.

937. - Are you okay? - Uh huh.

938. Alright?

939. You scared us to death.

940. So I was wrong.

941. Hey, isn't this the reason we never give up on people?

942. Yeah.

943. - Come on. - Good boy.

944. Look, lookie, lookie.

945. Oh, oh, oh.

946. Nice going Brian.

947. Nice going Brian.

948. Bet you can't throw one that far.

949. How are we gonna get the ball back smartie?

950. Hey.

951. That's funny.

952. Why are you so muddy and wet?

953. Have you forgotten something?

954. Such as?

955. The reason you're here.

956. Oh, I'm still trying to figure that out.

957. But it's not easy for a dog to give man money.

958. You're not supposed to give him money Archie.

959. I'm not supposed to give him money

960. but I'm supposed to help him with his finances?

961. That doesn't make sense.

962. You're supposed to save him from ruin.

963. Remember?

964. Now you have until tomorrow.

965. That's impossible.

966. Look, I gotta go.

967. I'm filthy.

968. Shake yourself dry.

969. That's your job Archie.

970. Just shake yourself dry.

971. - Hey. - Hey.

972. Hey kids.

973. - Hi Dad. - Hey Dad.

974. Thank you for all of your help kids.

975. Um hmm.

976. Can we play video games before we go to bed?

977. For one hour and not a minute longer.

978. But Mom!

979. If you argue.

980. Brian, no arguing.

981. - Okay. - Come on.

982. Come on doggie, let's go.

983. What happened today?

984. Well, first they cut the hours.

985. And then they cut the jobs.

986. And mine was one of the ones eliminated.

987. I have to go back to work Woody.

988. Look, the kids need you here.

989. It'll be alright.

990. You know I could, work part time.

991. Some place close to the house.

992. That way I wouldn't be gone for long periods.

993. No, I, I don't want some stranger coming into this house

994. taking care of the kids.

995. Look, what I'll do is I'll put the games on hold

996. for a couple of weeks

997. until I can find another second job.

998. You've already got a full time job right here.

999. Welcome to Tiny-Tails!

1000. Player, identify yourself.

1001. Welcome Archie, what would you like to do?

1002. Let's start a new game.

1003. Come on Archie let's play skip the stones.

1004. Up higher, higher, higher.

1005. Sorry Archie, better luck next time.

1006. Welcome to episode four, Archie.

1007. Are you ready to play the game?

1008. Let's play surprise party.

1009. Good choice.

1010. This is a fast game Archie.

1011. Buckle up.

1012. You are now starting episode five.

1013. You have entered the surprise area.

1014. You decide if you can.

1015. Good choice Archie.

1016. Let's see how smart you are.

1017. Hey, everybody up.

1018. Last one to the kitchen has to do all the dishes.

1019. What's that crazy dog done?

1020. No dog.

1021. What did he do?

1022. Everybody just get in the car.

1023. Let's go, he's got my game!

1024. Get in the car, get in the car.

1025. What are we gonna do?

1026. Get in the car, we're gotta get the car.

1027. I don't know.

1028. Where is he going?

1029. I don't know, but those are my only copies!

1030. What got into him?

1031. Maybe he wants to play the games all by himself.

1032. Wow, can he do that?

1033. Maybe.

1034. This crazy dog.

1035. Don't be so hard on him.

1036. He's just a puppy.

1037. I know Dad, come on.

1038. Where's he going?

1039. Whoa!

1040. What kind of a place is this?

1041. Some sort of technological development place I think.

1042. Come on kids.

1043. Hey there little fella.

1044. Hi.

1045. Sarah!

1046. Look, an old friend stopped by to say hello.

1047. Hi.

1048. He looks thirsty.

1049. I'll get him some water.

1050. Thanks.

1051. Okay yeah, now I really think

1052. he's trying to tell us something.

1053. What, do ya think the dog

1054. wants to play the CDs or something?

1055. Yeah, I definitely think he wants you to play the CD.

1056. Sarah the dog's cute, but this is ridiculous.

1057. Alright, alright, alright.

1058. He has that crazy look.

1059. Where do you look to see crazy?

1060. Farther, farther, farther.

1061. This is the best game I've ever played.

1062. I mean it's far better than anything we've ever developed.

1063. Oh yeah.

1064. Sorry Dexter, maybe next time.

1065. There he is.

1066. Hey, hey, what are you doing with my games?

1067. Your games?

1068. The dog brought them in.

1069. Why do you look so familiar to me?

1070. Look, I've never seen you people before in my life.

1071. Just give me back my games.

1072. Wait a minute, wait.

1073. Do you know what we do here?

1074. You're into technology.

1075. Partly.

1076. Can we take it from the top?

1077. No.

1078. I want my games back and then we'll all just leave.

1079. Daddy.

1080. Not now Megan.

1081. My name is Dexter Pearlsley.

1082. And I run this place with a bunch of other people,

1083. including Sarah here.

1084. These games are the best we've ever seen.

1085. And we've been developing video games here

1086. for over 10 years.

1087. Daddy!

1088. Uh yes, Pumpkin?

1089. They make some of the games you call trash.

1090. See?

1091. She's right.

1092. She's right.

1093. It's all garbage.

1094. But do you have any more like these?

1095. Several unfinished ones.

1096. Well, if we were to offer you,

1097. say half a million dollars to develop video games

1098. exclusively for us, what would you say to that?

1099. Please, say yes.

1100. When can he start?

1101. Uh hello?

1102. Hi.

1103. Dexter.

1104. You are?

1105. Oh I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

1106. Woodward, Woodward Channing.

1107. And this is my wife Joanne and these are my children.

1108. This is Megan and Brian.

1109. I knew it.

1110. You're Archie's brother, aren't you?

1111. Archie's brother, I didn't know Archie had a brother.

1112. Well for the most part

1113. I didn't know I had a brother either.

1114. Well why didn't he ever bring you in here?

1115. I mean, did he know what you can do?

1116. Um, no, no.

1117. We weren't very close.

1118. Well we wouldn't have known about you at all

1119. if it weren't for your dog.

1120. Yeah.

1121. Oh he's not their dog.

1122. I saw the signs you put up in the neighborhood.

1123. And then when I came over you all raced out

1124. and I had to rush over here to find you.

1125. Is he really your dog?

1126. Yes.

1127. His name is Quigley and he's my very best friend.

1128. I've been looking all over for him.

1129. Well, I can't thank you enough

1130. for taking such good care of him.

1131. It really means a lot to me.

1132. Are you ready to go home now Quigley?

1133. Goodbye Quigley.

1134. Yeah, now we lost two doggies.

1135. I, I just wanna know,

1136. if he can't,

1137. how did you guys...

1138. Nevermind.

1139. Um, you know kids,

1140. Sarah and I were so fond of that dog

1141. that we went out and we found a whole litter of puppies

1142. that look exactly like your Quigley.

1143. Are you thinking what I'm thinking Dex?

1144. I think we're on the same page.

1145. To seal the deal,

1146. why don't you follow us downtown this afternoon,

1147. when we go to pick up our puppy.

1148. There are five puppies.

1149. And they all look like Quigley?

1150. Exactly.

1151. Well that would be wonderful.

1152. If he turns out to be half the dog Quigley was,

1153. we'll be very lucky.

1154. Can I show you around?

1155. Okay.

1156. That went pretty well, don't you think?

1157. It's not too bad, was it?

1158. I'm glad I'm finally getting to know my brother.

1159. He's a nice guy.

1160. I think you did great.

1161. Personally, I'm on your side.

1162. Ah, phew, well I'm back.

1163. And, I did good.

1164. You did the no no on that man's briefcase.

1165. That was wrong.

1166. You almost caused several accidents in your haste.

1167. You continue to behave

1168. as though are the only one that's important.

1169. I did find the girl.

1170. Yes, after you forgot to watch her

1171. and she slipped out of the house.

1172. You're still rough around the edges, Archer Channing.

1173. Still taking shortcuts at others' expense.

1174. I know.

1175. Next time— - There is

1176. no such thing as next time.

1177. There are no second chances Archie Channing.

1178. You are what you are, a miserable human being.

1179. The only thing you've ever cared about

1180. is yourself.

1181. I mean when I go back.

1182. There is no going back.

1183. Ah.

1184. There gotta be a way.

1185. There has got to be a way to do this.

1186. I can't leave everything like it is.

1187. - Unfortunately— - No, no,

1188. I can't leave everything like it is.

1189. What you've done is done.

1190. And nothing will change that.

1191. I'll do anything.

1192. Wait!

1193. You cannot earn your way into heaven

1194. by doing good deeds Archie.

1195. The only way into heaven is by faith and faith alone.

1196. Is the dog alright?

1197. Dog?

1198. Yes, there was a dog.

1199. I don't think there was a dog Mr. Channing.

1200. You're a very lucky man

1201. to have survived such a terrible accident.

1202. God must be watching over you.

1203. Hmm.

1204. Oh, why are you saying that?

1205. Well you only have a few scratches

1206. and not one broken bone.

1207. The police still can't believe that you're alive.

1208. Whew.

1209. I gotta use a phone.

1210. Of course.

1211. And then you can check out and go home.

1212. - Thank you. - You're welcome.

1213. Hello Dexter?

1214. Hello.

1215. I'm ready to come home from the hospital.

1216. Could you please come and get me?

1217. Yeah, yeah okay.

1218. Yes, and have you found the CD-ROM?

1219. Nope, I can't find it.

1220. Okay, that's not good.

1221. We have to destroy that.

1222. I don't want anyone to see what's on there,

1223. because it's not good.

1224. Yeah, yeah—

1225. No, it's not good.

1226. And I have other things I wanna talk to ya about too.

1227. Amazing how fast you recovered.

1228. Don't forget to take your medication.

1229. Okay, thank you.

1230. Thank you very much.

1231. Did you get it?

1232. Yes.

1233. I got it.

1234. It is a little confusing though.

1235. Good, let's go.

1236. There's gonna be some more changes to the company as well.

1237. People who have pets, now have my permission

1238. to bring those pets to work with 'em every day

1239. so they can be close together.

1240. And there will be immediate raises

1241. for every employee that has a job well done.

1242. And I'm beginning this right now.

1243. Our profit sharing program.

1244. So all employees can be rewarded for their loyalty.

1245. Are you alright sir?

1246. Yes, I'm alright.

1247. I wanna go see my brother.

1248. Your brother?

1249. I didn't know you had a brother.

1250. I haven't seen him in years.

1251. Let's surprise him.

1252. 1461 Juniper Lane.

1253. Thank you.

1254. You say something Archie?

1255. Yes I did.

1256. Thank you for putting up with me during my bitterness.

1257. And my selfishness.

1258. I am going to ask you.

1259. I've already made up my mind.

1260. You're my partner.

1261. Equally.

1262. How do you feel about that?

1263. Thanks Archie.

1264. Who is this?

1265. Oh you've gotta be kidding.

1266. Oh.

1267. I want to know if you could find it in your heart

1268. to forgive me.

1269. What do you want Archie?

1270. I want to know you for who you are.

1271. I wanna know your family.

1272. And I want you to know me for who I am now.

1273. Why?

1274. Why not?

1275. Why not, exactly.

1276. Oh, I'm sorry.

1277. This is my partner, Dexter Pearlsley.

1278. Look, is this another one of your cruel jokes, Archie?

1279. Because if it is, you should just leave.

1280. It's been a long time.

1281. It's been too long.

1282. Brian, Megan, I'm your long lost uncle,

1283. that hadn't been here for ya like he shoulda been.

1284. And I found something very unknown to me.

1285. What did you find?

1286. Life.

1287. My life.

1288. I didn't know I had one.

1289. I didn't even know it was there.

1290. Are you alright?

1291. I'm better than I've ever been.

1292. I just, came out of a never ending nightmare.

1293. So I've come here to ask for your forgiveness.

1294. You've always been welcome at our house Archie.

1295. Oh Joanne.

1296. Thank you.

1297. It means a lot to me.

1298. I want to know everything about your games.

1299. How do you know about my games?

1300. I've been to a very special place.

1301. I don't know how I got there, I don't know where it is,

1302. but I was given good visions of who I really am.

1303. This is the bravest thing I've ever done.

1304. Because it's the truth.

1305. I have a surprise for the family.

1306. His name is Quigley.

1307. Hi.

1308. Oh hi there.

1309. Let's go.

1310. We're a family again.

1311. Let's go to the car kids.

1312. We're gonna go.

1313. Woody, good to be with you again.
