Abner, the Invisible Dog

Abner!

Abner!

Leave that cat alone,

you silly dog!

Hi, Sophie!

Hi, Chad.

So what's going on up there?

Oh, nothing.

Can I walk with you to school?

Sure. Isn't it

your birthday today?

Yeah. You remembered?

Well, you told me yesterday.

Oh.

Well, Happy Birthday.

You picked a great day for it.

The sky is so blue today.

Well, actually,

the sky isn't blue.

It's the way the sunlight looks

in the earth's atmosphere.

Really?

Yeah, I mean, the sunlight

is different waves,

and each wave

is a different color,

and we see blue when

the white light is scattered

by air molecules.

Wow. You really know a lot.

Yeah, well,

we learned it in class.

Well, we're studying

dinosaurs right now.

Yeah. Dinosaurs are so cool.

Chad?

Is anything wrong?

No. Everything is fine. Yes.

You're pretty smart,

aren't you?

Yeah, Chad's

a regular Einstein.

A real brainiac.

He should be teaching science

instead of Mr. Schultz.

Right, Chad?

Hi, Kevin. Hi, Josh.

Hey.

You're dating

the brainiac, Sophie?

We're just talking.

Lay off, Chad.

It's his birthday.

Oh, you hear that, guys?

It's Chad's birthday.

You know what, Chad?

I am so sorry.

Let me guess.

You're 13, right?

That's right.

13's a really unlucky number.

You better be

real careful today.

Sorry about the books, Chad.

Come on, Sophie.

We'll take you to school.

You don't want to be seen

with a dweeb like Chad.

People will start to talk.

One of these days...

Q-96 is stabilized, ma'am.

Good. Put it with

the P-67 prototype.

We've gotta take

good care of these.

You got that right, Jackie.

Schedule the sterilization,

gentlemen.

That means lunch.

You got 35 minutes.

Oh, my God. Look!

It's Old Man Jenkins!

He sure is movin' slow today.

I wonder why they

still keep him around.

He can barely lift

a waste paper basket.

He may not have the muscle,

but he's got seniority.

Don't you mean senility?

Don't be so callous, Ed.

We'll all be old someday.

Speak for yourself.

You're on break, Johnson.

You go in 30, Hayes.

Wow. Guess that old geezer moves

a little faster than we thought.

Hey, check this out.

Is that Jenkins?

Has he lost his mind?

Code red! Code red!

Go, guys, go.

- Where'd he go?

- Don't know!

- Hey!

- Hey! Stop!

Hey! Stop!

Hey, come on!

Get back here!

He's in the east corridor.

I'm coming with you.

Hey, hold it, buddy!

Ow!

Hey!

Come on, let's go!

Oh, right!

Where'd they go?

Probably gonna switch cars.

It was like taking

candy from a baby.

Wh-Where did you

find candy in there?

What?

You said you took

candy from a baby.

I don't understand how

there'd be candy and an infant

inside a government

laboratory.

Would you just shut up

and pull in over there.

Fine.

Man, I was a good Jenkins.

I should've been an actor.

All right, I'll stash the stuff.

You find a new set of wheels.

All right, will do.

They couldn't just have

vanished into thin air.

They're around here somewhere.

Pull over.

Welcome to Toy Wonder Shack,

where all your dreams come true.

- Oh!

- I'm sorry. My bad.

I wasn't watching

where I was going.

Can you help me?

I forgot my son's birthday.

I mean, I forgot it until

my wife reminded me of it

20 minutes ago.

You're the expert.

What does

a 13-year-old boy want?

A 13-year-old girl.

Yeah...

I don't know, mister.

I think it kind of

depends on the kid.

His birthday's now.

Like today.

I have to buy him

the best present ever.

Something really special.

I bet this place goes crazy

at Christmas.

I mean, how often

does a kid turn 13?

Science.

Science! My boy Chad

loves science.
