0:00:03 > 0:00:06'This is the story of Roy O'Brien.
0:00:06 > 0:00:09'He lives in an ordinary house, on an ordinary street.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13'The only trouble is, he doesn't LOOK very ordinary.
0:00:13 > 0:00:15'All Roy really wants is to fit in.
0:00:15 > 0:00:18'But it's very hard to stay out of trouble
0:00:18 > 0:00:20'when you're a cartoon!'
0:00:20 > 0:00:22Ro-o-oy!
0:00:24 > 0:00:26Ro-o-oy!
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Roy!
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Roy!
0:00:38 > 0:00:39He-he!
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Come on, Jack!
0:00:42 > 0:00:45'It's Sunday afternoon and Roy has joined Tommy and Jack
0:00:45 > 0:00:50'to take Tommy's grandfather's dog, Gent, for a game of fetch.'
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Get the ball, Jack! Come on, do you want to get the ball?
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Want to play fetch? You do, don't you?
0:00:55 > 0:00:58- Ah, give us it, will you? - Just grab it.
0:00:58 > 0:00:59Tommy! Now, Tommy.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Come on, Roy. You can catch it any time you want.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Oh, fine.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14Hey! Hey, Gent. Do you want to play? Come on and play fetch.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Yeah? Do you want to play fetch? Yeah?
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Yeah, OK. Come on!
0:01:24 > 0:01:28Have you ever seen someone who likes playing fetch more than a dog?
0:01:28 > 0:01:30No. You?
0:01:33 > 0:01:35- Bye.- See you.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43Open it. Go on.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Awww, deadly! Check it out, Roy.
0:01:45 > 0:01:50Tommy's granddad got us bowling vouchers for looking after Gent.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51Where are you going, Roy?
0:01:51 > 0:01:55Home. I'm going to trade in my birthday and Christmas presents
0:01:55 > 0:01:56for a puppy.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58You can't just decide to buy a dog, Roy.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Taking care of a pet's a huge responsibility.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04But looking after Gent was so easy.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Awww, yeah, Roy has a knack with animals.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08He'd be a great dog owner.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Yeah. Cheers, Jack. See you.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18- What kind of dog do you want?- Bill!
0:02:18 > 0:02:21- I'm not living with a dog.- Why not?
0:02:21 > 0:02:25- Because they're smelly, messy... - Sounds more like you.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28Mam, tell him!
0:02:28 > 0:02:31You're not responsible enough to look after a dog.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35Yeah, I am. I'm really, really responsible!
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Er, kitchen sink, Roy.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42They're not mine. It was Becky's turn to wash.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Why don't you ask us again when you're a bit older?
0:02:50 > 0:02:55Not responsible? I am responsible! Check out how tidy my bedroom is.
0:02:57 > 0:03:02"If your bedroom isn't tidy, you won't get your pocket money."
0:03:02 > 0:03:04She said that to me months ago.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07And I haven't missed out on a week's pocket money since.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10You know why? Because I am responsible.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Is that what I think it is, Roy?
0:03:13 > 0:03:16A collection of model spitfires in mint condition?
0:03:20 > 0:03:22How do you delete on this thing?
0:03:22 > 0:03:26See? Not a single scratch on them. You know why?
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Because I am responsible!
0:03:32 > 0:03:34I hate inside break.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36I hate the word responsible.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38It's not the end of the world, Roy.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Maybe your parents will let you have a dog next year.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Aww. Poor Roy isn't getting a puppy.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46- Get lost, Kathy. - Why don't you make me?
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Shut up. No-one's talking to you.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Don't tell me to shut up. You shut up.
0:03:50 > 0:03:55ALL: Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
0:03:55 > 0:03:59Kathy, Roy, stop that at once.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02The next person to start a commotion will get detention.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05It's Kathy's fault, Miss. She started it.
0:04:05 > 0:04:10I don't care who started it. You're all on your final warning.
0:04:10 > 0:04:16Dogs are disgusting enough. Imagine one with you as its owner.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18- What's your problem? - She's afraid of dogs.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20No, I'm not.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23She is.
0:04:24 > 0:04:25Yeah.
0:04:25 > 0:04:30- No, Roy. Just leave it.- Sorry, Tommy. It's too late for that.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33- What's he going to do?- You'll see.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35What do you want?
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Get away from me. Stop it. Miss, tell him.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44Roy O'Brien, what do you think you're doing?
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Go on, Roy!
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:04:49 > 0:04:51If you bite me, I'll sue.
0:04:51 > 0:04:52Roy!
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:04:55 > 0:04:59HE GROWLS
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Roy, are you OK?
0:05:10 > 0:05:13I don't know how to describe it, Mr Hammond.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15It's a very peculiar injury.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Peculiar injury? He's a cartoon, for heaven's sake, Miss Sheringham.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Everything about him is peculiar.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28I know, Mr Hammond. But this time, I think it's really serious.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29Well, where is he?
0:05:31 > 0:05:33I had to put him in there.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44Roy O'Brien, what the hell do you think you're playing at?
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:05:46 > 0:05:50Don't take that tone of voice with me, young man.
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Stop fooling around and behave normally!
0:05:54 > 0:05:58Argh! Argh! Argh!
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:06:09 > 0:06:11I'll call his parents.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30- Did he say what happened? - Some sort of minor injury.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Maura.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:06:48 > 0:06:53Ah, Mr O'Brien, Mrs O'Brien. Lovely to see you again.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58My poor baby!
0:06:58 > 0:07:01You call this a minor injury?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03No need to be alarmed, Mrs O'Brien.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Roy just suffered a small bump to the head.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10But I can assure you, there's no real har...
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Argh! Argh!
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Look what he's done to my beautiful car!
0:07:16 > 0:07:20Let's go see Doctor Raschid. Come on, yeah.
0:07:20 > 0:07:21Yeah, good boy.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28OK, Roy. I just want to have a little chat with Mum and Dad,
0:07:28 > 0:07:32so if you can go out. Out to the hall. Good boy. Good boy.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39- It looks like mild concussion. - Mild? He has a tail.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42The tail and the ears are probably symptomatic.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Will he recover? - I don't see why not.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47He's had plenty of bumps over the years.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49He's normally right as rain a few minutes later.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52I've never known him to scratch his ear before.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54We're dealing with a unique individual.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56There's never been anyone like Roy before.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59It's hard to tell how this will affect him.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- You mean, he might not recover? - Let's just be patient, OK?
0:08:03 > 0:08:05I'll examine him again in a few days.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08In the meantime, start treating him like a dog.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Wait, now, will that not just make him worse?
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Psychologically speaking, he believes he is a dog.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16To talk to him like a boy will only confuse him.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18CRASH!
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Ah, Roy! Leave the lollipops, Roy.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Still likes his grub, though. That's a good sign, isn't it?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- He's faking it.- Becky!
0:08:34 > 0:08:36He's guilt tripping you into getting him a real dog.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Maybe if we had a real dog, we wouldn't be in this situation.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Unbelievable. You're such a pushover.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Becky, don't upset your mother. Come on, love.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49- Where are you going?- Shopping. Roy's going to need a bowl
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- and a doggie basket.- One of those plastic toys he can chew on.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57You're not leaving him with me. I'm meeting my friends in town.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Well, not anymore, you're not.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Becky, your family needs you right now.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04- So unfair!- We're only going to be a few hours.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Don't let him out of your sight.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09What are you eating?
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Spit it out.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Gross.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31- What do you want? - We came to see how Roy is.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Does he still think he's a dog?
0:09:34 > 0:09:36ROY: Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:09:36 > 0:09:38- Poor Roy.- I made this for him.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41It's a collar with a modified web cam
0:09:41 > 0:09:44to keep a record of his life as a dog.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- Is this just some big joke to you? - No, we just want to help.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53Come on, Roy.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56HE PANTS
0:10:01 > 0:10:03OK. Got it. Come on, Roy!
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Woof! Woof!
0:10:11 > 0:10:16- Ready to score the winning goal in the European Cup final?- Woof!
0:10:21 > 0:10:24I thought it was hard keeping up with a cartoon boy.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27Keeping up with a cartoon dog is twice as bad.
0:10:27 > 0:10:31- Haven't seen the ball in 20 minutes. - Seems like he's having fun, though.
0:10:31 > 0:10:36Yeah. Fancy a game?
0:10:36 > 0:10:40- What about Roy?- I don't think he'll notice we're not playing.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Why can't you take him with you?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52They don't let dogs in the bowling alley.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Sorry, Roy. We'll come back tomorrow,
0:10:58 > 0:11:01bring you out for another game of football.
0:11:01 > 0:11:06HE WHINES
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:11:08 > 0:11:11What?
0:11:11 > 0:11:15Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:11:15 > 0:11:18You're really starting to get on my nerves.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Just go on.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25Hurry up, whatever it is you're doing.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31HE SNIFFS
0:11:31 > 0:11:33WATER RUNNING
0:11:33 > 0:11:35That's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Woof!
0:11:38 > 0:11:40You want to come back inside?
0:11:40 > 0:11:46Then start behaving normally and open the door yourself!
0:11:46 > 0:11:50HE WHINES
0:12:02 > 0:12:05- Roy? Becky?- What?
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- Where's Roy?- In the garden. - What's he doing out there?
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Trust me, you don't want to know.
0:12:12 > 0:12:18- Why are you being so hard on him? - Because he's a big, fat faker.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22- Maura! Becky!- What?
0:12:22 > 0:12:27Maura. Becky. When was the last time you saw him?
0:12:27 > 0:12:29- About half an hour ago. - Bill, he's run away.
0:12:29 > 0:12:34He's probably in the park chasing cats. I'll look for him.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40- I thought he was faking it. - Oh, Becky.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:12:59 > 0:13:01HORN BLARES
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Stupid dog! Get out of the way!
0:13:04 > 0:13:07HE WHINES
0:13:12 > 0:13:16I've warned you two before - no more outside food.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Now, take your bag of toffees and get out of my sight.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34HE SNIFFS
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Argh! Get away. Bad dog! Shoo!
0:13:50 > 0:13:54Wrong move, dog. You're in my jungle now.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:14:00 > 0:14:03Sorry about the commotion, Miss.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06The manager will replace your meal for you.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11MOBILE PHONE RINGS
0:14:11 > 0:14:16- 'Hello?'- Hi, Tommy, it's Mrs O'Brien. Is Roy with you and Jack?
0:14:16 > 0:14:20- 'No, we're at the bowling alley.' - I see. Well, if you see him, love...
0:14:20 > 0:14:23- 'Has he gone missing?' - Yeah, I'm afraid so.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27- 'What's going on?- We'll start searching for him right away.'
0:14:27 > 0:14:28Thanks, love.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38Attention, please, would the owner of an albino hound,
0:14:38 > 0:14:39possibly a mongrel,
0:14:39 > 0:14:43contact Don Mooney at the security office immediately.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52It's all my fault. I was so mean to him.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55He'll be all right, love. Don't worry.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Awww, lads. You're very good to help us search.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01- We looked for him on the way back. - Should I call the police?
0:15:01 > 0:15:06No. No, not yet. Let's try and find him ourselves first, yeah?
0:15:06 > 0:15:08- Come on, Bill.- What about me?
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Someone has to stay here, love, in case he comes home.
0:15:12 > 0:15:13Come on, lads, let's go.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:15:28 > 0:15:32What are you struggling for? Escape is impossible.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Some big sister I am.
0:16:04 > 0:16:08- Roy!- Roy!- Roy!
0:16:08 > 0:16:12It's getting dark, love. We'd better bring the boys home.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15We're going to have to call the police, won't we?
0:16:15 > 0:16:19It's for the best. I'll tell them to meet us at the house.
0:16:21 > 0:16:26HE WHINES
0:16:27 > 0:16:30What's all the hollering for? Relax!

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Now, come over this way. Come on.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31This guy here, this is Chippy.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Say hi to Chippy. Hiya, Chippy.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37Come on. Come on back this way.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42This little speedster here,
0:17:42 > 0:17:46this is Thierry.
0:17:46 > 0:17:50- Say hi to Thierry.- Woof! - How's it going, Thierry?
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Now, you relax there
0:17:57 > 0:18:00and I'll sort out a place for you to sleep
0:18:00 > 0:18:02and something nice to eat.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Excuse me, is that your dog?
0:18:11 > 0:18:13He's not a dog.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17He's my little brother and he's gone missing.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Have you seen him?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30You want some more?
0:18:34 > 0:18:38Here, let me take that off you.
0:18:42 > 0:18:47Had a rough day, hadn't you? Ah, don't worry.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49You have a home here with me now.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Gulp!
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Long floppy ears. A waggly tail. Walks on all fours.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00Are we looking for your son or your dog, Mrs O'Brien?
0:19:00 > 0:19:05He's our son. He had a little accident at school today.
0:19:05 > 0:19:09- That turned him into a dog? - Yeah.- Sort of.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14OK. Well, we'll call the animal shelters
0:19:14 > 0:19:17and see if someone's dropped off a dog who looks like a boy.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20Or is that a boy who looks like a dog? Anyway, we'll be in touch.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23- Thanks, guard. - We'll see ourselves out.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35Where have you been?
0:19:35 > 0:19:39What if Roy came back while you were gone? He can't ring the doorbell.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43That doesn't matter now. I know where he is.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50Just take it nice and easy, all right? Don't be panicking.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54I'll keep calm, all right? Listen, don't be worrying about me.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02- Don Mooney?- Who wants to know?
0:20:02 > 0:20:06I'm Bill O'Brien. This is my wife, Maura, and my daughter Becky.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08- Hello, Mr Mooney.- What do you want?
0:20:08 > 0:20:11Did you, er, find a dog today?
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Let me guess.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16You must be the owners who let him wander off alone.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20No, we're his parents. And he's not a dog.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23He's an 11-year-old boy, see?
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- Do I look like I was born yesterday? - Woof! Woof! Woof!
0:20:26 > 0:20:31- Roy? Roy? Is that you, love?- Whoa! Where do you think you're going?
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Get out of my way and give me back my baby, you big mutt, you!
0:20:34 > 0:20:37- Come back here!- Right, now.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- Woof! Woof! Woof!- Roy! A-ha-ha, Roy!
0:20:40 > 0:20:43If you don't get out of my house in 30 seconds, I'm calling the cops.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Go ahead. We'll have you arrested for kidnapping.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49Are you out of your mind? I've been looking after him.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52I'm sorry for the misunderstanding there, Mr Mooney,
0:20:52 > 0:20:54but that really is our son.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56What are you apologising to this big ape for?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Come on, son. I'm taking you home.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02- What do you think you're doing? - No-one's going anywhere.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05- Don't be stupid. Get out of my way. - I'm calling the cops.- Woof! Woof!
0:21:05 > 0:21:10- See, you're upsetting him now. - He's not upset.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12He's trying to say something.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Mam! Mam! Dad! Dad! They're telling the truth.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17I really am a boy.
0:21:17 > 0:21:22- Hey, I can talk again. Ma, Da, can you hear me?- Oh, Roy!
0:21:23 > 0:21:28Where did you get a talking dog from?
0:21:28 > 0:21:30'It's the next morning,
0:21:30 > 0:21:33'and Bill and Maura have taken Roy to Doctor Raschid's
0:21:33 > 0:21:35'for another examination.'
0:21:35 > 0:21:38The bump's receding nicely. You're talking again.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40I think you'll make a complete recovery.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43What's the story with the ears and the tail?
0:21:43 > 0:21:47- How do I get rid of them? - They'll probably just wither in time.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49But...
0:21:50 > 0:21:54- Roy.- Hang on, wait a second, Ma. I can do this.
0:21:54 > 0:22:00I'm standing! I'm standing! I can't believe it! Whoa!
0:22:00 > 0:22:04- OK.- Keep your back straight now, Maura. Don't....
0:22:11 > 0:22:15OK, Roy. You're going to have to take it easy.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18I don't want you suffering another concussion.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21But I can talk. Why isn't the rest of me back to normal?
0:22:21 > 0:22:23It will be. Just be patient.
0:22:26 > 0:22:27Thanks, doctor.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Please, just call me Dajid Gunasay Garratna.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37- This stuff is hilarious. - I'm tired of being a dog.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40But look at the great adventure you had.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Adventure? More like a nightmare.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45How would you like it if people kept patting you on your head
0:22:45 > 0:22:48and telling you you were a good boy?
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Fed up with needing someone's help whenever I'm hungry, thirsty,
0:22:51 > 0:22:53or have to go toilet.
0:22:53 > 0:22:58I'm not setting one paw outside this room until I'm a boy again.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Do you want to be on your own?
0:23:00 > 0:23:07- No. But can we do something normal, like play video games?- Cool.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20You didn't come down for your dinner, love.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23- I'm not hungry.- BOTH: What?
0:23:23 > 0:23:27Fine. I don't like eating out of a doggy bowl.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31That's all right. I'll put your dinner on a plate for you.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33No, thanks.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35I'll just wait until I can use a knife and fork again.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39- I don't remember you using a knife and fork before.- Come on, Bill.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42He knows I'm joking. Don't you, Roy?
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Yeah. You're hilarious(!)
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Do you want to watch the match with me? United are playing.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51No, I think I'm going to get an early night.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55All right. Goodnight, love.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01- Night.- Night.
0:24:09 > 0:24:10I can't get to sleep.
0:24:10 > 0:24:14Every time I close me eyes I think about Tommy's granddad's dog, Gent.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16It was easy looking after him.
0:24:16 > 0:24:21But let's say he was really unhappy, I'm not sure I'd be able to tell.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23A dog needs an owner who understands them.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27Otherwise, they could end up being miserable.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30HE YAWNS
0:24:32 > 0:24:35- Roy? Brekkie.- I'm coming!
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Ma! Da!
0:24:55 > 0:24:57I'm a boy again!
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Yes!
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Everything's back to normal.
0:25:15 > 0:25:16ROY BURPS
0:25:16 > 0:25:17Pardon.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Hey, look. It's Roy!
0:25:24 > 0:25:27It's good to have you back.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29Thanks, Miss.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32And er, I suppose I've got detention for what I did to Kathy.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36Oh, I think I can let you off with a warning this time.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39- That's not fair. He bit me. - ALL: Shut up, Kathy.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41- Jack, Alex.- BOTH: Sorry, Miss.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44What happened to your tail? Somebody chop it off?
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Listen, Kathy, I'm sorry for making you cry in the canteen.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49I wasn't crying.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52BELL RINGS
0:25:52 > 0:25:53I wasn't!
0:25:54 > 0:25:58Ah, O'Brien. Back on two feet, I see?
0:25:58 > 0:26:03Yes, sir. Oh, and sir? Sorry for chewing up your trousers
0:26:03 > 0:26:05and eating the seat in your car.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08See you!
0:26:11 > 0:26:12Ma, is it OK if I go bowling?
0:26:12 > 0:26:16Sure. But we've something to tell you first.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18We've decided to get you a puppy.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21You haven't bought me one already, have you?
0:26:21 > 0:26:25No. We'll go to the pet shop after you come back from bowling
0:26:25 > 0:26:27and let you choose one.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34- Nice one, Roy!- Yeah, whatever.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40- There you go, lads. On the house.- BOTH: Thanks.
0:26:40 > 0:26:45Now, if you need anything else, let me know. You OK, Roy?
0:26:48 > 0:26:51- My folks want to buy me a puppy. - That's great news.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Yeah. I really want a dog,
0:26:54 > 0:26:59but I didn't realise how hard it is looking after one.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02- I don't think I'm responsible enough.- Fair play to you.
0:27:02 > 0:27:07- It's a pity more people don't think like you.- Yeah.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11You know something? You mightn't be ready for a dog,
0:27:11 > 0:27:14but there is one animal you could look after.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19I've decided I'm not ready for a puppy.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22You were right, Ma, I'm not responsible enough yet.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27- We'd all help you look after him. - I know, I know.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31But I think it's better if we start with something a bit easier.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33What's in the box, Roy?
0:27:34 > 0:27:36It's our new pet.
0:27:39 > 0:27:44Ah-ha-ha! He's lovely. What's his name?
0:27:44 > 0:27:50- I don't know. How about Rover? - Welcome, Rover!
