Arlo: The Burping Pig Page #4

---

[dog barking]

Feisty, but harmless.

What, where are you going?

I just remembered, I forgot

something out by the swing set.

Okay.

Buster! Shoo!

Shoo, shoo, Buster!

Bad dog, go away!

Shoo! Shoo, shoo!

Yeah, keep walking, Buster!

That's what I thought!

Thank goodness you're back.

That dog is cuckoo!

[pig squealing]

Are you okay little piggy?

I gotta get you inside

without Mom seeing.

Ahh...

Talia?

Yes?

Okay, who turned out the lights?

Everything okay out here?

Yeah, Mom, why?

Mm, love me some vegetables.

[laughing]

- What's so funny?

- Nothing.

Well then, why are you laughing?

Oh, I just remembered

that joke you told me

about the chicken

crossing the road.

It was so funny!

- Nice cover-up.

- Really?

Cause you told me

it was totally lame.

- I just didn't get it before.

- Okay.

- Come back in.

- Okay, Mommy, I'm coming.

Aren't you gonna

finish your dinner?

Mom, I'm stuffed.

You barely ate anything.

[pig burps]

That was a good one.

What do you say, Talia Rose?

- Excuse me.

- Excuse me.

I guess you ate

more than I thought.

I gotta go to my room

to do some homework.

Okay.

- Hey, squirt.

- Hey, Talia.

Hey, guys.

Why are you standing so funny?

- No reason.

- [pig burps]

- Ew, gross.

- Talia!

Sorry!

[breathing heavy]

[sighs]

[humming]

Hey, nice place you got here.

I think you ate too many

vegetables, little piggy.

- It gave you the burpies.

- [pig burps]

Hmm, what do pigs like to eat?

I should check.

I can save you some time.

Absolutely everything!

Oh, good, little piggy!

I can get you all this stuff.

Jackpot!

Wow, it says here, little piggy,

you can't ever eat chocolate.

- What's chocolate?

- Remember that, little piggy.

Sorry, no chocolate for you.

Chocolate could get you

really, really sick.

- You're the boss.

- You're so cute!

I have to think

of a name for you.

Hmm, maybe Phil.

Nah.

What else you got?

- Or maybe Peanut. No.

- [pig] No.

- Or maybe Roy.

- Do I look like a Roy to you?

Now where are those vegetables?

[gasps]

I got it! Arlo!

I think you look like an Arlo.

What do you think, little piggy?

[Arlo burps]

I'll take that as a yes.

Arlo. Yeah, Arlo. I like it!

Has a nice ring to it.

Well, I can't put you back outside with that

mean Buster barking at you all the time.

[knocking]

Everything okay in there?

Yeah, sure, Mom! Why?

Arlo, now stay

here and be quiet.

It's my mom. We can't let

anyone know you're in here.

Talia?

Everything okay in here, honey?

Yeah, sure, Mom. Why?

Who are you talking to?

Just myself.

- Yourself.

- Yeah, you know.

Hey, Talia, how's it going?

I'm doing great.

How about you?

I'm fine.

Hope it doesn't rain tomorrow.
