The Boss Baby Page #3

Synopsis: Seven-year-old Tim Templeton has always been a boy of an overactive imagination, and for the past seven years, life was all peaches for him, getting all the love and affection from his caring parents. However, life will never be the same and Tim won't be the centre of attention anymore as the arrival of an improbable new brother named Boss Baby, dressed in a black suit complete with a tie and a briefcase, will shortly rob him of all love, as he takes over the whole Templetons' house. Nevertheless, although this may be true, soon, Tim and the new Boss in a diaper will need to put differences aside and join forces, as a sneaky scheme involving the head of Puppy Co. threatens to tilt the balance of power towards their insidiously adorable furry antagonists, not to mention that the next Pet Convention is in only two days.. Brothers, hurry up.

They get all the love.

We could share.

You obviously didn't go to business school.

Look, Templeton,

the numbers just don't add up.

There's not enough love for the two of us.

Not enough beads to go around.

And then, all of a sudden,

there's no place for Tim.

Tim doesn't fit anymore.

Oh, no! What about Tim?

So keep quiet. Stay out of my way.

Or there's gonna be cutbacks.

You can't be fired from your own family.

Can you?

Wake up, little halflings! It's 7:00 a.m.

Wake up, little half...

What's the use?

Arise for a nutritious breakfast!

It's 7:
00 a.m.

What's wrong, Timothy?

Has that little dwarf made you blue?

Mm-hmm.

Then I shall cast upon him a great curse!

He shall not pass!

It's no use, Wizzie.

He's got Mom and Dad completely fooled.

If they knew what I knew,

they'd never let him stay.

Perhaps your parents need to be enlightened.

With a great curse!

They shall not pass!

Yeah. I need to enlighten them...

with proof!

That's what I need, proof!

Expose his dark magic!

Testing, testing.

Testing, testing.

Maybe they can return him to the store...

and get their money back!

We could buy a bouncy house!

Godspeed, Tim! It's 8:45 a.m.

Ninja.

Ninja.

Ninja.

Ninja.

Babies everywhere! They're spreading.

Mom! Dad! What's going on?

It's an invasion!

It's a play date!

That's a keeper.

It's a meeting, and you won't be attending.

We'll see about that.

Thank you all for coming here

on such short notice.

Now, before we begin...

Yes, sir!

- Sure is!

- Affirmative!

Jimbo, run some interference.

Hey!

- We babies are having a crisis!

- Oh, no!

- That's awful!

- Horrible!

What is it?

It's simpler if I just show you.

Teddy, if you please.

Let's put on a show.

Here we go!

Jimbo, hit the lights.

You see, babies aren't getting

as much love as we used to.

Why? Have we been bad?

No, Staci.

But I'll tell you who is.

Behold our mortal enemy. Puppies!

No! That's exactly the problem.

Puppies? What's the deal with puppies?

Throughout history...

people have loved babies

more than anything in the world.

We've always been a must-have item...

number one on every wish list.

Puppies were merely accessories.

But all that changed

when the puppies began coming out...

with new designer models.

Each one more adorable than the last.

Remember the Labradoodle?

The Peekapoo?

The Chiweenie?

Try to say "Chiweenie" without smiling.

Not possible. Don't waste your time.

We all laughed at the Shar Pei.

And now it's number one in China.
