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
