this morning.

I guess this means you'll have to stay

until they lift the curfew.

I guess.

You want some breakfast?

Yeah, great.

In good time, old boy.

In good time.

It's not funny.

He's turning into the Wolfman.

I'm sorry, it's the full moon part.

In movies, the guy only turns

into a werewolf during a full moon.

That's the way it works.

When there's a full moon,

he turns into a werewolf.

Everyone knows that.

Why only the full moon?

Why not any moon?

Because that's the way a werewolf works.

You have to shoot him with a silver bullet.

I bet if you blew his head off

with a shotgun it would do nicely.

Don't you know anything

about werewolves?

I know you turn into one

if you get bit by one.

But the full moon part...

It's been my experience

that any moon will do the trick.

Werewolf-wise.

Have you ever met a werewolf?

I've been acquainted with a few.

And you?

Come on. Everybody knows

there's no such thing as werewolves.

Well...

There you go.

Will you take the trash out

before breakfast, please?

Aw, Mom.

Don't "Aw, Mom," me. Go.

So, what happened last night?

I don't know really.

Thor thought he heard something

in the woods, woke up the whole house.

Lucky you were in the Airstream.

Anyway, I finally let him out.

He ran into the woods

and he didn't come back.

I called him with that dog whistle

but he kept barking.

So?

What did he find?

Nothing.

What do you think it was all about?

I don't know. I'm not worried.

He barks at practically anything.

I don't know, Janet.

Big predators can travel long distances

if their habitat runs dry.

Though there hasn't been

anything dangerous here recently...

...doesn't mean it'll always be safe.

If I were you,

I wouldn't let Brett play out there until...

Until what?

There weren't supposed to be wolves

up where I am.

Look what happened to those people.

They said it was a grizzly bear.

Wolves, grizzly bears, same difference!

You have to be a little more cautious.

Take the dog more seriously

and don't let him play out there.

Don't you think you're overdoing it?

Thor isn't helpless.

How big is that dog?

Get this, he's 105 pounds.

Do you know how big a gray wolf gets?

Try 200 pounds!

Give me a break, Ted.

The dog barks at night...

...and suddenly you've got

a 200-pound wolf at the door!

Are you feeling okay?

Piss off.

Take your dog in the house, please!

I'd like to go for a run.

Come on.

Come on, it's bedtime!

Come on.

Come on!

Thor, come on!

It's bedtime!

Come on in.

Come on, come on. Good boy!

Come here.

What's up with you?

You be a good dog.

You be a good dog.

Be a good dog. Yeah, I love you, too.

Good night.
