Charlie the Wonderdog

Charlie!

They say everyone

can be a hero no matter who they are.

They say sometimes what you think is your end

is only your beginning.

They say anything is possible

if you just believe in yourself.

I dunno who they are, but they say a lot.

All I know is that my story starts here.

And it never would've happened if they didn't come along.

Wow.

It's for you, sweetie.

Danny meet Charlie, he's part of our family now.

Aw.

Kitty!

Wonder Dog, I found a way out!

No not that way, it will burn me.

This way!

Come on Charlie, jump.

Hey Charlie, treat, treat.

Woohoo!

We made it!

- Danny, what are you doing in there?

Playing Wonder Dog.

- Just clean up after, okay?

Okay mom.

Let's go for a walk.

Charlie, speak.

Good boy, Charlie.

Hey Charlie, wanna play fetch?

Daddy, not in the house.

Charlie?

Charlie, you up yet?

I'm heading to school.

I gotta treat for you buddy.

Treat.

Treat, treat, treat.

You sleep okay, buddy?

Hey, not the lips, you goofball.

Gotta run, hang in there old boy.

I'll be home before you know it.

Ah, I love you too, buddy.

Time for bed, you coming?

See you in the morning, old buddy.

Hey mom.

Danny.

Charlie's really slowing down.

He didn't make it up the stairs tonight.

- This just in, heavenly light rays

are appearing over multiple cities.

I like this one!

I want this one.

Gimme, gimme, gimme now!

Right away my prince

Bad pile.

I don't like him.

Yes, my prince.

Bad kitty, bad kitty!

Charlie?

Charlie, where are you boy?

I've got treats.

Hey mom, Charlie's not in the yard.

Have you seen him?

- No honey, I'll look though.

You'd better get to school kiddo.

All rise for the queen.

That includes you.

Wow!

- Have you picked your new pet, my son?

It's an important milestone of our culture.

No, I don't like any of them!

I want more choices.

- We have traveled a trillion light years to find these.

Choose your pet or I will choose for you.

They all suck.

Pardon me?

That will be enough of that horrid language.

Pick one now or you will get none at all.

Okay, okay!

Ew, gross.

I don't know, maybe this one, but make him blue and huge!

Bigger eyes!

That's better.

And he needs to talk!

Be my friend?

There, it's the perfect pet.

Now let's go home.

What, no!

He bores me already.

- Enough, your father and I do not

have any more time to waste.

You have until breakfast.

Pick one or get nothing.

- You heard her, by breakfast time.

Whatever, servant

Charlie?

Charlie boy, Charlie.

You, bigger!

And fatter!

No.

You.

Why don't you fly for me?

Ugh, you're not right either.

You grow a brain, you over there, grow wings!

Longer spikes.

You, glow brighter!

You make my head hurt.

This is not what I want!

You are all terrible pets!

bye, bye, bad animals.

My son, what is happening?

What have you done?

I flushed the toilet.

I want better ones.

Open the air lock.

That is it!

I've had enough.

You are not worthy of having a pet.

I am sending these creatures home!

Charlie?

Charlie, buddy, I miss you.

Charlie.

Charlie, where are you?

Charlie?

Charlie!

You're back!

You came back!

I thought I'd lost you.

Don't you ever, ever leave again.

Promise?

Oh, I promise.

It was scary being lost.

Charlie?

Yeah, I'm listening.

You, you okay pal?

Charlie, you spoke

What, when I did?

Yeah, you did it again!

Charlie, speak.

Hey.

Is this happening?

Am I losing my mind?

Am I okay?

You look good to me, pal.

This is wild.

I don't know what is happening.

You and me both.

And you're young, so young.

What?

Hardly, I'm just well rested today.

- No, you are like five years younger.

Oh, nonsense.

I'm still your faithful old dog.

Not anymore.

I, what?

This is really slick.

I'm young again!

Yeah!

I'm young, yes!

This is awesome.

Charlie's back, baby.

Be gone aching bones.

Let's go!

Be gone hip displacement.

Be gone tired dog!

Be gone rheumatoid arthritis!

Yeah, yeah, I'm young again!

This is incredible!

I'm a frisky pup!

Wakey, wakey time, Otis!

Time to wake up and serve your cat.

Stay away from me!

- I didn't think I'd see you again.

Where did you go?

Buddy, you'd never believe it.

Try me.

Space?

Outter?

Like, aliens?

Yep.

Like, no way.

Oh, yeah, like way.

Puddy, is that you?

You're so big and how, how, how did you do that?

- I still can't believe you can speak.

Yeah, it's pretty wild.

I mean, I've been speaking in my head for years,

but to hear my thoughts out loud.

Whoa.

What is wrong with you?

Wrong?

Everything is wrong!

My litter box is overflowing.

My stomach is empty, and I'm not being entertained 24/7.

Now get off your sorry buttocks

and fetch me some food, you dipwit!

Got any treat?

Yes, sir.

I, I mean, sir Puddy.

I'm getting your food right away there, sir.
