What Happens Next Page #2

Synopsis: At age 55, Philadelphia CEO Paul Grecco decides to make changes in his life, including the sale of his company, and that terrifies him. He was right to be terrified, because the new owners force him to retire early. His sister, Elise decides that the best things for him is a puppy she has gotten him, and dating the women that Elise sets Paul up with. It's funny though, but Paul finds himself disinterested in the women Elise fixes him up with, and oddly fascinated by a young man he meets while walking his new puppy in the park across from his condo. Paul has never really thought about dating or sex before, with anyone, so now what should he do?

I'll tell you what...

Why don't you just

keep her for a month

and then if it

doesn't work out,

I'll take her, okay?

- Do I have a choice?

- No.

Trust me...

You will love her.

Now that you're retired

you have all that time

to get to know each other.

Hmm?

She's fed and walked

and exhausted,

so you don't have to

even think about her

until tomorrow

when the trainer comes.

- Trainer?

- Yeah, Mindy.

She'll be here at 9:00.

She's supposed to be the best.

Now, um, what else?

Oh, I put wee-wee pads

on the kitchen floor,

and, um, gave her

a bowl of water...

So she should be just fine.

Right, sweetie?

Just check on her

when you get up in the morning.

It was a gorgeous party.

- If you do say so yourself.

- Yes.

Night.

Oh, and do me a favor

and think of a name.

Can't call her 'it' forever.

See ya later.

All right, darling, good night.

Good night.

[Dog whining, crying]

Christ! What?

What? What is wrong?

What do you want?

Come on.

There.

Good morning, Mr. Paul!

Good morning, Claire!

I'm gonna put

the coffee right up.

Oh, brother!

Who gonna care for that thing?

I'm not picking up no

dog business in this house.

No disrespect, Mr. Paul,

but I'm not doing that.

Claire, relax.

Sit down, meet her.

What she name?

Haven't decided.

She not a bad looking thing.

Coffee.

Oh, brother!

This whole thing

got Miss Elise name

written all over it.

You're right about that.

[Phone ringing]

I got it.

Hello.

Yes, thank you.

Send her up.

It's the dog beater.

Hi, I'm Mindy.

Come on.

He in here with that thing.

Hi, I'm Mindy.

Hello, I'm Paul Greco.

Well, hi!

Aren't you a pretty girl!

And what is your name?

Lt.

Well, she, technically.

Well, we must

give you a name.

What are your thoughts?

I really haven't any.

Okay.

Let's see.

She's got a strong,

little build,

a beautiful face,

and she's very quiet.

What does that bring to mind?

The perfect wife.

Now, wouldn't that

be Mrs. Greco?

I think that's exactly right.

So I guess that's you -

Mrs. Greco.

Oh, I'm sorry...

No, that's a perfect suggestion.

You're serious about that?

Mrs. Greco.

Absolutely.

You know, it's usually better

to have a one-word name,

like Spot or Buttercup.

It's much easier

for the dog to understand.

I just...

I don't know if

the name 'Mrs. Greco'

would be the most desirable.

Mindy, there's 100 old dogs

within one square block

that desire nothing more

than the name 'Mrs. Greco.'

Shall we?

Okay.

Well, today we're going to teach

Mr. Greco and Mrs...

Uh, Paul. Please.

Sorry.

Paul and Mrs. Greco when

and where to sissy and poopy.

Well, I've a few very simple

steps you must practice,

and if you stick with it...
