It Came from Beyond Arthur

# Every day when you're walking down the street

# Everybody that you meet has an original point of view

# And I say, hey, what a wonderful kind of day

# If you can learn to work and play and get along with each other

# You've got to listen to your heart, listen to the beat

# Listen to the rhythm of the street

# Open up your eyes Open up your ears

# Get together and make things better by working together

# It's a simple message and it comes from the heart

# Believe in yourself for that's the place to start

# And I say, hey, what a wonderful kind of day

# If you can learn to work and play and get along with each other

Hey! # What a wonderful kind of day

Hey! # What a wonderful kind of day # Hey!

Hey, DW.

-Hey!

-Waaahhhhh!

SHUTTER SQUEAKING

SNARLING

THUNDERCLAP Well, where did you come from?

Not exactly a night for exploring, is it?

Why don't you come inside and dry... DOG SNARLS

-Woof!

-Oh, feisty, aren't we?

Well, I'll just leave this open. You can come in if you want to.

WHIMPERS

HOWLS

"Killer."

Hm, that's a mighty tough name for such a cute little thing.

Well, I bet you're hungry, Killer.

DOG BARKS That's left-over Beef Stroganoff and it took me two hours to make

so I don't want to hear any complaints.

Well, lookee here, it's a little fuzzy rat.

-A strange thing to put on a lead.

-Come here and say that, fuzz-face!

-I'll tie your whiskers in knots!

-Ooh, it has a temper!

Now now, little dog thing,

don't strangle yourself...yet!

You'd better have all nine lives cos you'll ever one of them...

What are you looking at, liver lips? And stay away! Yeah, that's right.

Keep on walkin'. Woof, woof, woof!

Sorry about that. She's a little cranky.

-Where is she? Where's the doggy?

-In the kitchen.

-You may want to wait a bit before...

-She's beautiful!

-Not like Arthur's stinky dog.

-Grrr!

Hi, little Killer. You wanna play?

No, DW, be careful.

-KILLER BARKS

-Ahhhhhhhh!

Grrrrrrrrrrr!

I didn't do anything. She just came at me like I was a piece of meat.

It's not your fault, DW.

Killer is a little, well, high strung.

High strung? She's a monster.

Grrrrr!

Let's leave Killer to finish her supper in peace.

Ahem. Excuse me, but that person you barked at

is the sister of my owner.

-So?

-So I think you owe her an apology.

Oh, no, did I scare that girl when she snuck up on me? How terrible!

I'll go lick her feet right away. Here, help yourself to my kibble.

Kibble? Oh, well, ahem, I'm sure it was just a misunderstanding.

DW can be very trying sometimes.

SNIFFS Mmm, smells beefy.

-Grrrrrr!

-A trap!

-You probably scared her. You have to be very gentle with new dogs.

-BARKING AND WHIMPERING

Pal!

Then the beast came at me, its giant jaws snapping,

but I used the old tuck-and-roll, escaping just in time.

Then Arthur came in. I, of course, ran to his defence.

When my back was turned, the beast struck, wounding me mercilessly!

I dragged myself..GASPS... to Arthur's side

and collapsed, hoping that my useless body

might somehow shield my master from harm.

Poor Pal. Where did the dog bite you?

- Left leg. I think I saw bone. - I can't see anything.

Oh, must have healed. BARKING Oh, there she is! Hide!

Ha ha ha! That's it?

That's the beast that attacked you? She's a lap dog.

-Let me talk to her.

-No, Amigo, don't!

She's small but vicious.

Maybe he'll have better luck. He's very charming.

Buenos dias.

-Welcome to the neighbourhood.

-SNARLING AND BARKING

Ayyyy! You are a monster!

We're so sorry. I'm glad Amigo's OK. If you need anything, let me know.

AMIGO WHIMPERS

Mom, it might be time to think about taking Killer to the animal shelter.

KILLER SNARLS

There there, it won't be that bad.

A pretty dog like you, you'll be with a lovely family in no time.

KILLER WHIMPERS

-Frank, get the gloves, Killer is back.

-You know this dog?

She's been in and out of here a lot. People adopt her, then return her.

-You probably know why.

-She was a little difficult, but...

-We'll take it from here, ma'am.

-KILLER BARKS

DOGS BARKING

Hey, guys, look, it's a chew toy.

-You got any biscuits, chew toy?

-No. What is this place?

The end of the line, where they put the repeat offenders, the rejects.

Better get comfy cos you're gonna be here a while.

I'm very sorry to have bothered you, but I've changed my mind.

You poor dear. Life has been hard for you, hasn't it?

If this is going to work out, there has to be some changes.

You have to be nicer to my grandchildren and other dogs.

Understand?

I'm telling you, Amigo, this is my bone.

-I distinctly remember burying it.

-Then how did it get in my garden?

-It is mine.

-Hey, guys, I'm back.

This is it, old friend, the last stand.

So you have the nerve to come back after what you did to my paw.

-And my leg!

-I'm sorry about that, but things will be different now.

-I never really had a home before, but now...

-Don't waste your breath.

-We don't talk to biters.

-I'm not a biter. I mean, not really.

Oh, come on, I said I was sorry.

BABY GIGGLES

Ahem. Excuse me, I brought you something.

-Someone left it at the dog run.

-Oh, what a pretty ball!

-Stand back, Kate, it's a trap!

-It isn't a trap.

I'm not using it so I thought you and Amigo might want it.

We have our own toys, thank you. Good day to you, madam.

-SIGHS

-Well, I'll leave it here... in case you change your mind.

Pal, maybe you should give Killer a second chance.

- She really is trying to be nice. - Kate, we pets have a saying.

You can't teach an old person new tricks. The same applies to dogs.

If I were her, I'd leave here. She'll never fit in.

GRANDMA SNORES

BIRD TWITTERING

Come to Nemo, my feathery bonbon. Just a little bit closer.

Stupid wings! They take all the fun out of hunting.

Miaow!

Oh, no, I'm doomed!

Ohhh, thank goodness, it's that cat-saving boy. Hello! Up here!

Yoo-hoo! THUNDER

Wait, wait! Come back!

Ohhhh!

Help! Help! Hello, little squirrel, could you...

Oh, it's you.

I-I didn't mean you look squirrelish, I just...

No, I look like a little fuzzy rat, right?

You're right, I don't expect you, of all creatures, to help me.

SIGHS I guess I'll perish up here.

Cold, wet, alone.

-Cut the act, cat, I'll help you. Where is your owner?

-On the third floor of that building.

Quick, someone's going in. Ahh!

Woof, woof!

-LIFT BELL

-Woof, woof, woof, woof!

I can't get in. We'll have to try something else.

Hurry! I can't hold on much longer.

SIREN

KILLER BARKS

-Grrrrr!

-HORN BLARES

KILLER BARKS

CAT MIAOWS PLAINTIVELY

The little dog didn't move one inch

even though the truck was about to flatten her like a plantain.

You sure it was Killer?

I heard it straight from Spotty, the fire dog.

I thought dogs didn't like cats. Why would Killer help Nemo?

Any animal who risks her life for another can't be all bad.

DOGS BARKING OUTSIDE

Woof, woof, woof, woof!

This is to welcome you to the neighbourhood.

It's a very good bone. Ham, as I recall.

-It was lamb and it was mine.

-Really? For me?

My very own bone? Oh, you guys! You're the best!

Come on, let's go bury it in the neighbour's yard!

-Well, I guess it's better to be licked than bitten.

-True, true.
