Waffle Misses Doug Waffle the Wonder Dog

# Oh, Waffle

# Oh, Waffle

# Leaping around like a...frog

# I just want to say one thing

# You're such a clever dog

# So many nights we're awake

# When you're woofing

# We still love you... #

Everybody!

# Waffle Doggie

# Waffle Doggie

# Waffle Doggie

# You're such a clever dog

# Such a clever doggie-wog

# Oh, oh, oh, oh

# Oh, oh, oh, oh

# Oh. #

Doug was going away for a few days to stay with his mum, Zoe,

but Waffle didn't want him to go.

-WAFFLE:

-Ball, ball!

Sorry, Waffle. I haven't got time to play ball now.

I'm finishing my packing.

-WAFFLE:

-Play, Doug, please?

OK. One more game.

-WAFFLE:

-Ball, yeah!

-DOORBELL RINGS

-Doug, that'll be Zoe.

OK, coming.

-WAFFLE:

-Huh? Um...

-WAFFLE:

-Doug? Oh!

Zoe!

Delivery for a Mrs Hobbs from spyonyourneighbour.com.

Hello. That's for me.

I'm Mrs Hobbs.

-Oh, sorry.

-Good morning, Mrs Hobbs.

Can you play ball with Waffle while I'm away, Dad?

-He loves playing...

-Dougie!

-Oh, Mum!

-Simon!

Oh, I've missed you!

Oh, I've missed you, Dougie.

-Me, too.

-Oh, it's so good to be back from Alaska.

-Oh, Zoe, how was your trip?

-Oh, it was great, thank you, Jess.

How are you all?

-Good.

-Yeah? Where is this Waffle I've been hearing all about?

-Oh, yeah.

-Waffle, what are you doing up there, all quiet?

Come on, come down and say hello to Zoe.

-Come on.

-Hello.

-WAFFLE GROANS

I think I know what's wrong with him.

-What's that?

-He doesn't want me to go home with you.

-Oh!

Right, I think I've got this.

Here, take that.

Hey, Waffle. Hello.

I'm Zoe, Dougie's mum.

Would it be all right if I stayed here for a little bit

to give you a chance to get used to me

before Dougie and I go back to my flat?

I can show you some exciting things that I've brought back from Alaska,

and maybe we can play ball.

WAFFLE BARKS

Oh, well done, Zoe.

Let's get those bags in from outside, shall we?

I'll put the kettle on.

Come on, Waffle.

What's in that box, Zoe?

Ah, well, because I heard that Waffle is a dog

that likes playing ball,

I brought back...

-..these.

-BOTH:

-Snowballs!

Wow!

Direct from Alaska.

I made them myself.

THEY SQUEAL

WAFFLE BARKS

-EVIE:

-As we played with Waffle and the snowballs,

Mrs Hobbs next door was unpacking her delivery of new spy equipment.

An indoor snowball fight!

This is definitely going on my new dog-log wall chart.

By keeping records

of all the noise and nuisance that dog makes...

..we will get him taken away, George.

And with all this spying equipment...

I can see and hear

exactly what the Brooklyn-Bells and that dog

are up to next door. Ho-ho-ho!

-We are spies, Georgie!

-Meow!

So, Zoe, what have you been doing in Alaska this whole time?

Well, I've been studying humpback whales,

but before that, present time!

-Oh, lucky!

-Ta-da!

-Oh, wow!

-One for you, Dougie.

And one for you, Evie.

-What's this?

-Well, try them.

Turn it round.

-Try it the other way. That's it.

-Oh!

-SNOW ALARMS WAIL

-They're snow alarms.

-They're for when you get lost in the Alaskan snow.

-Oh, clever.

-Do you like them?

-BOTH:

-Yes.

Look, do you like them, Waffle?

-WAFFLE:

-Yeah, again, again!

-Hold on, stop.

-WAFFLE:

-Eh?

Did Waffle just speak?

-SIMON:

-Yes, Waffle can talk.

-I told you, Mum.

-No way, Waffle!

-WAFFLE:

-Yes, way.

He's a Wonder Dog, aren't you, Waffle?

-WAFFLE:

-I am.

-You really are!

Well, talking Waffle, did you know that there are singing whales?

-WAFFLE:

-Singing whales?!

Well, there are.

Now, let me see.

-WAFFLE:

-Singing whales!?

This is a humpback whale that I saw in Alaska.

WHALE SINGS

Wow!

Listen to it. Can you hear it sing?

-Yeah.

-WAFFLE:

-Huh?

-ZOE SINGS LIKE A WHALE

-Try it!

THEY SING LIKE WHALES

-WAFFLE:

-Huh? Huh?

THEY LAUGH

You know, humpback whales sing to each other like this,

and some people say they do it cos they miss each other.

-WAFFLE:

-Huh?

-WAFFLE SINGS

-Oh, nice whale sounds, Waffle.

-Not on the table, Waffle.

-WAFFLE:

-Oh, I'm going to miss Doug.

WAFFLE HOWLS

What on earth is that noise?

-Meow!

-Shh, Georgie.

I'm trying to listen.

It sounds like whale song.

First they get a dog, now they get a whale.

WAFFLE HOWLS

It's not a whale, George, it's that annoying dog again.

That's another thing to note on my dog-log wall chart.

Oh!

SHE GRUNTS

Meow!

BOING!

-Meow!

-Oh, Georgie!

-Meow!

-Poor Georgie.

Yes, you go and hide in the cupboard,

away from the mean dog and the scary whale noises.

But we will watch him,

and get rid of him.

-EVIE:

-But George wasn't scared.

He knew Waffle was whale singing because he was sad.

Right, come on, Dougie, time for us to go.

-We'll see you off.

-Oh, thank you.

-Have you got that?

-Got it. Yeah.

-Right.

-Simon, you're forgetting something!

-Oh, thank you.

-Bye, Waffle.

-He won't say "bye" to you, Doug. He's sulking and crying.

-WAFFLE HOWLS

-I'm only gone three days.

-I love you, Waffle.

-WAFFLE:

-I love you.

He'll be just fine, won't you, Waffle? We'll look after you.

WAFFLE HOWLS

-Meow!

-WAFFLE:

-Huh? Oh.

George.

George! Play!

Meow!

MUSIC PLAYS

-WAFFLE:

-Oh, fetch, come on, George.

MUSIC STOPS

-WAFFLE:

-George?

Your turn.

-Meow!

-WAFFLE:

-Huh?

-EVIE:

-I'm going to miss having Doug around.

-WAFFLE:

-They're coming. Go, George. I'll come and play ball later.

-WAFFLE:

-Oh, hi.

Do you want to come and play dressing up?

-That will cheer you up.

-WAFFLE:

-Oh, yeah!

-Meow!

-Yes, Georgie.

Out you come. It's safe now the noisy whale lady has gone.

And the dog has gone quiet.

Oh, Georgie...

..you smell different.

You smell of dog!

Oh, am I imagining it?

Oh, that dog has driven me crazy, and he's driven me to this.

Lasers, traps, locks, cameras, nets, alarms.

-ALARM:

-Dog alert.

It's only me, you silly thing.

ALARM SOUNDS

ALARM STOPS

This is all designed to stop that dog

ever getting inside Fortress Hobbs.

Meow!

We will be safe here, George.

We will watch that dog's every move.

And we will catch him if he tries to make his way into our home.

And soon, my faithful puss, we'll get that dog sent away.

-ALARM:

-Dog safety system activating.

-EVIE:

-So it looked like things were getting serious

with Mrs Hobbs next door.

Not that Waffle and I knew about ANY of that yet.

WAFFLE BARKS

Argh!
