He's Your Dog, Charlie Brown Page #2

Synopsis: When the gang has lost their patience with Snoopy's pranks, they pressure Charlie Brown to act. He decides to send Snoopy back to his puppy farm for obedience training, but Snoopy is less than enthusiastic. He retaliates by going only as far as Peppermint Patty's place who agrees to let him stay for the night. He overstays his welcome as a freeloader which forces Charlie Brown to drag him back home with a firm hand and lease. Snoopy responds by running away for real back to Peppermint Patty's, but he learns that his return visit will be far less pleasant this time...

Well, if you're looking for a place to stay,

let's get one thing straight right now.

We have a rule in our family,

that everyone pulls his own weight.

If you're going to stay here,

you're going to have to work.

And it's gotta be done right.

[VACUUM CLEANER WHIRRING]

When you finish the hallway,

start on the living room.

[VACUUM CLEANER WHIRRING]

PATTY:
Mom says we can't eat

till you finish the yard work.

It sure is quiet around here.

Yeah. As much as I hate baseball,

I miss not playing or doing something.

Since we lost our shortstop,

you-know-who...

...our team doesn't seem

to have the same old zip.

Let's face it. It's not the same around here

without Snoopy.

Maybe I should try to get him back.

Maybe you should try to get him back,

Charlie Brown.

That's it, Charlie Brown.

Tell him we are willing to accept him back.

[RINGS DOORBELL]

Hi, Chuck.

What are you doing way out here?

Well, it's about Snoopy.

I wonder if I could talk to him.

I'll see if he can come, Chuck.

He's sort of busy right now.

[IN UNISON]

Hey.

I came to get you, Snoopy.

I'm glad to see you are willing

to let bygones be bygones.

I'll put this on.

Argh!

Gee, Chuck. What's with the rope?

Snoopy seems to hate this game

you wanna play.

Maybe you better get lost.

It's sure great having Snoopy here.

Boy, he's not only a good shortstop.

He can sure help around the house.

So long, Chuck.

Okay, Snoop, back to work.

You gotta pull your own weight

if you're gonna live here.

[VACUUM CLEANER WHIRRING]

Snoopy refuses to come home.

As soon as he saw the leash, he flipped.

You blockhead.

You shouldn't have showed him the leash.

You should have decoyed him with a bone,

and then jumped him and hog-tied him.

Than dragged the ingrate home

to those who appreciate him.

If that stupid dog doesn't come home

pretty soon...

...I'm gonna start missing him.

ALL:

Snoopy, come home!

[GRUMBLING]

[DISHES SHATTERING]

Here, here, what's all this ruckus?

You'd better ease up on that noise

or out you go.

You'd better clean up this mess.

As a disciplinary measure,

you'll sleep in the garage tonight.

[SIGHS]

[SOBBING]

[SNOOPY HOWLING]

[BARKING]

[CAN CLATTERING]

[SNOOPY KICKING DOOR]

Yes, sir? What can I do for you?

- Hey.

- Hey.

Boy, it's great to have you back, Snoopy.

I don't mind telling you

I've really missed you.

Tomorrow we'll see the kids.

They'll be glad to see you too.

[SIGHS]

- Hey, Linus. Guess who's back.

- Aah!

- He's back.

- Who's back?

[SNOOPY CLEARS THROAT]

He's back. Ugh.

Dog germs.

ALL:
Fight. Fight.

Lucy and Snoopy are having a fight.

Lucy and Snoopy are having a fight.

Good grief. Already?

Stand up and fight like a man.
