Meanwhile, Dog Man wanted to help Chief win Nurse Lady's heart. He went digging around in Mayor's garden. The Mayor was more nicer to Dog Man ever since he saved his teddy bear, but he was still wary of him going near his new rose garden.

Mayor had put up a sign in his garden to keep people, especially Dog Man, from messing with it. However, Dog Man ignored it and got the roses he needed. He got out and headed to the hospital. He dropped the roses in front of the door and rung the doorbell.

Dog Man hide behind the hospital as Nurse Lady opened the door. "Oh, look, a pile of slobbery roses," she said as she picked them up. "I'll wash these off and give them to my patients. That will cheer everyone up."

Dog Man groaned as his plan didn't exactly what he expected. Meanwhile, Commander Cupcake and Grampa were looking for living spray and cannery grow.

"What do you mean 'no longer available'?!" Grampa asked the worker in front of them.

"Well, living spray was banned due to complaints, right?" The worker explained. "And they stopped making cannery grow after the factory was destroyed."

"This is an outrage!" Grampa bellowed. "Let's take our business somewhere else!"

Meanwhile,  Sarah and her cameraman we're making their way to Petey's lab. "Hi, I'm Sarah Hatoff," she spoke into her microphone. "Welcome to my show."

"Oh, hi, 80-HD," Sarah greeted 80-HD and continued as she, Zuzu, and the cameraman entered the lab. "Today, we're at the home of Petey the Cat. As you may remember, Petey used to have a very bad reputation. He was known across the continents as the world's most evilest cat."

"But all of that had changed," Sarah said as she and Zuzu looked at a photo and Maddie and Lil' Petey. "Today, Petey is an upstanding citizen. And an ambassador for altruism. Let's meet him now."

"Here's Petey!" Petey was wearing a red suit while sitting on a green couch reading a book.

"Well, hello, Sarah, what a surprise," he looked up and greeted, before crouching down and greeting Zuzu as well. "And how are you, little doggy?"

Zuzu growled in response. "Be nice, Zuzu," Sarah told her.

"Yeah, be nice, Zuzu," Petey countered at Zuzu.

"Petey, just a short time ago," Sarah started, watching with Petey, as the latter sat down on a tool as she spoke to him. "You were widely known as a villain. A ruthless bad guy. An evil, scheming, good-for-nothing scoundrel. But you've changed."

"Yeah," Petey replied.

"Tell me why," Sarah told him.

"Well, I-" Petey was interrupted when Lil' Petey and Molly bursted in, along with Maddie. Lil' Petey was wearing a frying pan on his head and was carrying a plunger and a toliet brush.

"If you're happy and you know it, poop your pants!" Molly and Lil' Petey sung. "If you're happy and you know it, poop your pants! If you're happy and you know it, then your underwear will show it, if you're happy and you know it-"

"Will you cut that out?!" Petey shouted. "I told you kids to be quiet!"

"How come Wally's wearing clothes?" Molly asked Lil' Petey and Maddie.

"I wear clothes sometimes," Petey told her.

"No, you don't," Molly disagreed.

"Well, look who's here," Sarah said rather enthusiastically as she walked up to Molly, Lil' Petey, and Maddie. "It's Maddie, Lil' Petey, and Molly."

"How are you two doing today?" Sarah asked the three.

"Fine," Lil' Petey asked.

"Are we on TV?" Molly asked.

"Yes!" Sarah said.

"I remember being on TV once," Maddie said with smile as she remembering something form her past.

"Testing, 1-2-3," Lil' Petey said, speaking into the microphone.

"Hey, you wanna hear a song about diarrhea?" Molly asked.

"No, she doesn't!" Petey said sternly. "I told you kids to stay downstairs!"

"But we're hungry," Lil' Petey said.

"Yeah, do you got any potato chips?" Molly asked.

Petey got frustrated. "How about something healthy instead?" Petey asked as they all walked into the kitchen. "I can cut up carrots and broccoli?"

"No, we like potato chips," Molly said.

"I was going with potato chips too," Maddie said. "Sometimes, you have to enjoy the sweet stuff."

"Alright, here," Petey said, giving Lil' Petey and Molly a bowl. He took out a bag of potato chips, opened it, and started pouring it into the bowl.

"Do you got any of that white stuff?" Molly asked.

"What white stuff?" Petey asked.

"You know, the white stuff," Molly said.

"She means chip dip," Lil' Petey told Petey.

"We don't have any chip dip," Petey told Molly.

"Oh," Molly said. She picked one of the chips with telekinesis and ate. She turned to Petey, "They taste way better with chip dip."

"Well, we're all out of chip dip!" Petey said, a bit frustrated.

"That's okay, Wally," Molly said. "You can get some for the next time I come over."

"I was planning to go to the store, probably later or tomorrow," Maddie said as Petey grew  irritated with Molly.

"That's great, Maddie," Molly said.

"Would you get out of here?" Petey told Molly and Lil' Petey.

"Okay," Lil' Petey said as he and Molly walked back downstairs.

"Bye, Wally," Molly said.

"Why does she keep calling you 'Wally'?" Sarah asked Petey.

"I have no idea!" Petey said with frustration.

"Petey, I know this is an important day, but can you cut them some slack?" Maddie asked.

"Maddie, kids aren't gonna listen to you if you go soft on them all the time," Petey told Maddie. "Sometimes, you gotta put your foot down!"

"But being soft is better than putting your foot down," Maddie said.

Petey facepalmed. "Can you just go downstairs and keep an eye on them, please?" Petey asked.

"Okay, Petey," Maddie said. She walked downstairs to where Lil' Petey and Molly while Petey went on with his interview.
