The Aristopups

Chapter 11

{to Skye putting the pups to sleep}

Ace: Everybody wants to be a dog

Lani: Because a dog's the only cat Who knows where it's at

Blitz: Oh, yeah!

Skye: Happy dreams, my loves.

[She joins Chase on the roof]

Chase: I'll bet they're on that magic carpet right now.

Skye: They could hardly keep their eyes open. Ah. Such an exiting day.

Chase: It sure was. And what a finale.

Skye: Chase, your friends are really delightful. I just love them.

Chase: Well, they're kinda rough, you know, around the edges, but if you're ever in a ham, wham, they're right there.

Skye: And wham, when we needed you, you were right there.

Chase: That was just a lucky break for me, baby.

Skye: Oh, thank you so much for offering us your home. Oh, I mean your pad. It's very nice.

Chase: Well now, wait a minute. You know, this is the low-rent district, remember?

Skye: No, no, no, I like it, well, uh-- well, all it needs is a little tidying up and, well, maybe a little feminine touch.

Chase: Well, if you're applying for the job, well--

Lani to Ace: Goody. Mother's going to work for mister Chase.

Chase: Boy, your eyes are like amethysts. Gee. Huh. That's pretty corny, though, huh?

Skye: No, not at all. Any woman would like it. Oh, I, I mean, even little Lani.

Chase: Yeah. All those little pups, Skye. I love 'em.

Skye: And they are very fond of you.

Ace: Yeah!

Lani: Shh!

Chase: You know, they need-- well, you know, a sort-- well a sort of a-- well, a father around.

Skye: Oh, Chase, Chase, that would be wonderful. Oh, darling, if, if only I could.

Chase: But why can't you?

Skye: Because of Goodway. I-- I could never leave her.

Chase: But-- but Goodway is-- well, she's just another human. You're just her house pets.

Skye: Oh no, no, we mean far more to her than that. Oh, sorry my dear. We just have to go home tomorrow.

Chase: Yeah. Well.. I guess you know best. And I'm gonna miss you, baby. Huh, and those kids. Gee, I'm gonna miss them too.

Ace: Well, we almost had a father.

Blitz: Yeah. Let's go back to bed.

Chase: Good night, Skye.

Skye: Good night, Chase.
