It may look like just another
perfect day in sunny San Francisco...
but it's not.
Because at San Francisco University,
a young woman has her college interview.
Today is the first day
of the rest ofher life.
And while she may look like
just another carefree college applicant-
She's not.
Excuse me.
- Do you know where the admissions office is?
- Left at the fire hydrant.
Follow the path inside.
First floor.
Thank you.
You're a lifesaver.
Okay, that was weird.
She's Maya Dolittle.
And she can talk to animals.
I mean, how cool is that?
Hi. I have a 9:
00 appointment withAdmissions. Uh, it's Maya Dolittle.
Dolittle. Maya Dolittle.
As in Dr. Dolittle?
As in the great
Dr. Dolittle?
- He's my dad.
- Yo, Frank.
Come here, man. Check this out.
This is Dolittle's kid.
The guy who single-handedly...
saved that herd
of Sumatran rhinos?
Yeah, that's him.
That's my dad.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. I totally love Dr. "D."
My cat, Mr. Smushy, and I have moved to
a whole new level in our relationship...
and it's totally because of his article,
"Feeling Feline. "
Uh, I guess I missed that one.
Guys, I'm kinda late here.
Admissions?
Oh, uh, down the hall
to the right.
- Okay, thank you.
- No problem.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- Bye. - Dolittle's
kid. - Wow.
- Hi.
- Good morning.
Okay, Maya. Come on. You can do this.
You are confident
and capable.
You will be as good
a veterinarian as your dad... someday.
Okay, smile therapy.
Okay.
- Hello, Maya. My name is
Doris Park Weaver- - Hello.
Dean of Admissions for San Francisco
University's Center for Veterinary Medicine.
- Oh. It's nice to meet you.
- Oh, it is so nice to meet you.
Your father's been an invaluable resource
to this institution.
Oh, thank you.
I saw him lecture once.
A most impressive man.
Yeah, he's lectured me
many times.
I mean, he's quite the lecturer.
This is our admissions committee.
They wanted to meet you in person.
- Oh.
- Your father's thesis on anxiety disorders...
in anubis baboons
was brilliant.
Brilliant. Will you continue his research
He's done so much
for the keel-billed Toucan.
- So much.
- You must be eager to follow in his footsteps.
What's the title
of his next book?
- Do you think he'd sign a copy for me?
- Um, yes.
I'm not sure.
And okay, why not?
All righty then...
let's have a look
at your transcripts, shall we?
Now then, uh...
it appears your grades
are, uh-
Okay.
Yes, well, um, my emphasis
in the past year...
has been more on... social aspects
of maturation versus academics...
in the hopes to broaden
my... curriculum vitae.
Ah. What about
extracurricular activities?
Perhaps you've joined your father
on one of his expeditions.
I read about his latest trip up the Amazon
in Invertebrates Illustrated.
- Inspiring, truly.
- Mmm.
Well, I was on the homecoming
committee last year.
And it's a lot more
demanding than it sounds.
Yeah.
- Well, let's look at your S.A.T. Scores.
- Right.
Uh-
I've never been that great
in classroom situations.
I find that I do better
in a real-world environment.
- Perfect. We'd love to see you in action.
- In action?
This is the clinic nursery.
The committee and I
will observe you...
to see how you interact
with the animals.
Great. Piece of cake.
You just go ahead and kick back
Yeah,
all righty then.
Smile therapy.
Listen. Listen up, you guys. Come here.
Look, this is very,
very important.
My interview didn't go so well just now,
so I really need to impress them here.
So if you guys would just cooperate, that
would be greatly appreciated, okay?
Okay, awesome. Um-
So, boys and girls, what would
we like to play today?
How about we sing a song?
Oh! Hello there,
little goat.
Uh, yes, I know that is
a sound a goat makes.
But you don't have to do that with me
because I can talk to animals.
- She wants her bottle.
- Oh. Um, okay, yeah.
Uh, "bah-bah. " I knew that.
Uh, okay. Um-
Come on. Here you go.
Hey! Over here, everyone!
Harvey's hatched! Harvey's hatched!
Oh!
- Welcome to the world, baby chick.
- Mama?
Oh, no, no, no.
I'm not your mama.
- Mama. Mama. Mama.
- Wha-
Oh, don't cry, little kitty.
- You're my mew-mew.
- Your "mew-mew"? What is that?
- She thinks you're her mom.
- Hey, Mom. Hey, Mom.
- Guess what. Guess what. Guess what. Guess what.
- What?
- They all think you're their mom.
- I'm comin', Mama. Geronimo!
Excuse me. Sorry.
I got him.
I saved him.
- Hey, Mom, you got any treats in here?
- Hey, wait! That's my purse!
Guess what. Guess what.
Bag, man.
Where's all the good stuff?
- Give me the- Look!
- Run for itl
- This is funl
- Told you you couldn't keep us locked down.
If you guys don't all stop this behavior,
you're all going to be on time-outl
- Guess what. Guess what. Guess what.
- What? What? What?
That's what.
- Mom!
- I'm in the kitchen.
- So, how'd it go? How'd it go?
- Don't ask.
So, uh, I'm guessing a game of fetch
is out of the question?
- So, how'd it go?
- I blew it.
They wait-listed me. And they said
that was only because "I'm a Dolittle. "
Oh, Maya,
so sorry.
Unless I can come up with a way to impress
the committee within the next four weeks...
they suggest that I find
other alternatives to S.F.U.
