Dachshund Ah!

Oh, Lucky! C'mon, Lucky boy. We can't give up now.
[keeps track of the dalmatian puppies behind; sees Lucky struggling to keep up with the rest of the group; grabs Lucky with his teeth and carries him the rest of the way]
Lucky I'm tired and I'm hungry and my tail's froze... and my nose is froze and my ears are froze. And my toes are froze.
Collie Pongo! Pongo! Pongo! We'd just about lost hope. We have shelter for you... at the dairy barn across the road.
[meets up with Pongo and Lucky]
Pongo Oh, thank goodness. Perdy! Perdy! This way, Perdy. The dairy barn across the road.
[runs to Perdita who is leading the rest of the puppies and calls out to her]
Perdita C'mon, kids.
[hears her mate calling and leads the puppies to the dairy barn]
Pongo It's not far. C'mon, this way. Follow the collie.
Princess Just look, Queenie. Have you ever seen so many puppies?
Queenie Aren't they adorable!
Duchess Perfectly darling.
Princess The poor, little dears. They're completely worn out and half frozen!
Perdita They all here, Pongo?
Pongo Yes, dear. All 99 accounted for.
[puts Lucky down by Perdita's feet]
Queenie The famous Pongos. We were so worried about you.
Collie Been trying to reach you for hours. Afraid you'd been captured.
Queenie How did you make it all this way? And in such dreadful weather?
Duchess And with all those little ones.
Rolly I'm hungry, Mother. I'm hungry.
Cadpig I'm hungry, too.
Freckles Mother, we're hungry.
Two-Tone, Dipstick, Jewel, Fidget and Wizzer We're all hungry.
Perdita I'm sorry, children.
Princess Do they like warm milk? It's fresh.
Perdita Oh.
Rolly Where, mother? Where is it?
Cadpig Where is the milk?
Queenie Come and get it, kids. It's on the house.
Perdita This way, children. Around this way. Now, don't crowd. You'll have to take turns. Rolly, wait your turn, dear.
[leads the kids behind the dairy cows to let the kids feed on their mill]
Duchess Don't worry, kids. There's plenty for all. Ooh! The little darlings.
Collie Pongo, a few scraps I saved for you and the missus.
[brings him a discarded sandwich]
Pongo Oh, thank you.
Collie It's not much, but it might hold you as far as Dinsford.
Pongo Huh? Dinsford?
Collie Yes, there's a Labrador there. His pet is a grocer.
Pongo Oh, I... I'm terribly sorry.
[yawns]
Collie Oh, quite all right. Quite all right. Now, get some rest and don't worry. I'll be standing watch.

Queenie Oh, we're very honoured to be of service.
Princess We're only sorry we can't do more.
Duchess Anyone who would think of hurting these dear, little puppies...
Queenie Shh! Duchess!
Duchess They're so dear.
Princess I wish they could stay with us for always.
Queenie Princess, shh. Quiet, everyone. Let them sleep, the poor things. They're so exhausted, and they still have such a long way to go.

Pursuit of the Dalmatians Begins
Pongo Hurry, kids. Hurry!
[grabs a tree branch off a tree and sweeps away their paw prints, using the branch as a broom and gets out of the way just in time, as Cruella's car drives over the hill]
Cruella de Vil Well, now, what have we here? Well... So, they thought they could outwit Cruella. Jasper! Horace! Here's their tracks heading straight for the village!
[evilly sees the trailing paw prints on the other side of the road; chuckles evilly, blares the horn and angrily calls Jasper and Horace]
Jasper Blimey! Oh, it's them, all right.
[evilly sees the paw prints]
Cruella de Vil Work your way south on the side roads. I'll take the main road. See you in Dinsford!

Dalmatian Puppy 4 She's gonna make coats out of us.
Perdita She couldn't!
Sergeant Tibbs That's right: Dog-skin coats.
[seriously]
The Colonel Oh, dog-skin coats! Oh, come now, Tibbs!
[doubtful]
Sergeant Tibbs But it's true, sir.
[truthfully]
Patch Horace and Jasper were gonna pop us off and... skin us!
Perdita She's a devil, a witch! What'll we do?
Pongo We have to get back to London somehow.
Pongo Perdy, we'll take them home with us; all of them. Our pets would never turn them out.
[judiciously]
Captain Colonel, sir, lights on the road. It's a truck headin this way.
[snorting; sees the Baduns driving their truck down the road as their follow their tracks]
Sergeant Tibbs It's the Baduns, Horace and Jasper. They're following our tracks.
The Colonel Well, we've got em out numbered, Tibs. When I give the signal, we'll attack.
Sergeant Tibbs Colonel, sir, I'm afraid that would be disastrous.
The Colonel Ahem! Oh, you think so?
Sergeant Tibbs Out the back way, across the pasture.
Pongo Thank you, Sergeant, Colonel, Captain.
Perdita Bless you all.
Pongo How can we ever repay you?
The Colonel Ahem! Nothing at all. All in the line of duty.
Sergeant Tibbs That's right, sir... routine.
Captain Better be off. Here they come.
Perdita C'mon, kids, hurry.
[leads the puppies out the barn and across the pasture]
The Colonel Yes, good luck, and never fear! We'll hold them off til the bitter end!
Jasper Badun Now, what's this? Hey, out of my way, you barkin haystack, or I'll knock your blinkin block off!
Horace Well, they ain't in here, Jasper.
Jasper Badun No. They're hiding in the hay. Here, give me a match. We'll burn em out.
Sergeant Tibbs Ready, Captain. Aim... Fire one! Fire two!
[pulls down Captain's ear, letting him kick Jasper in the butt and into the barn roof, surprising Colonel; fires Captain's leg, kicking Horace in the butt and right into the barn roof where Jasper is]
Jasper Badun Hey! There they go, the little sneaks! C'mon, Horace, back to the truck. We'll head em off in half a mile. Ah, they gotta be around here somewhere.
[rush back outside, where Jasper rides up in the truck and lets his brother get on, drive down the country road and stop at a bridge, where they shine their flashlights on a frozen creek]
Horace Badun Jasper, I've been thinkin'.
Jasper Badun Now, Horace.
Horace Badun Well, what if they went down the froze-up creek so's not to leave their tracks?
[shines his flashlight on the creek, just as Rolly bursts out from the formation and near the flashlight]
Jasper Badun Aw, Horace, you idiot! Dogs ain't that smart.
[meanly yanks Horace back in his car seat; starts up the truck and drives off into the distance]
Pongo All clear, Perdy. All clear.
[watches them leave and then turns to Perdita and the puppies]
Whizzer We gave em the slip! Didn't we, Dad?
[slips on the ice in front of Pongo]
Penny They didn't even see us, Patch!
Perdita Shh, children. Children, shh.
Lucky My feet are slippery. I wish we could walk on the snow.
[tries catching up to them, but his feet slip on the ice]
Pongo No, son, we can't leave tracks.
[picks up Lucky with his mouth; follows the dalmatians behind with Lucky in his teeth. His hind legs slip on the ice, then he stands back up and resumes following them]
Jasper's Confidence in His Mischief
Jasper Badun Oi, look, Horace! Watch me pot His Lordship smack on the conk! How's that for callin em, eh?!
[throws a dart, hitting a picture of a relative of Cruella right in the nose; laughs]
A Dog's Determination to Connect
Roger Radcliffe After 5:00 already? Fancy that. All right, Pongo. All right, boy. Pongo, boy, take it easy! What’s all the hurry? Pongo, boy, slow down.
[puts on his trench coat and trilby hat; As soon as Roger puts the leash on Pongo, he takes off, heaving Roger through the front door. The scene slides away to see them traveling quickly through Regent's Park.]
Pongo I was afraid we’d missed them. Perhaps they passed on by the park. Then, suddenly… I spotted them. It was a perfect situation if I planned it right. I couldn’t depend on Roger. I knew what he’d do. He’d settle on the grass, puff his pipe and that would be it. No, it was all up to me. Well. At first I had no particular plan, just anything to attract attention. You know, stir things up a bit.
[looks around the area and sees the pug from recently barking at a few pigeons to chase them away. The, the two bachelors. cross a bridge past the saluki and her master painting this scene of the park, narrating; goes ahead and grabs Roger's hat]
Roger Radcliffe Pongo, you silly old thing! C’mon! C’mon, let’s have it, boy. Pongo! Pongo!
Pongo For a while, it seemed to work. At least they had seen one another. Things were going along first-rate. But, for some strange reason, they left!
[narrating]
Roger Radcliffe C’mon, you old renegade. We’re going home.
[pounces on Pongo to stop him]
Pongo But I wasn’t giving up. I was determined that somehow they just had to meet.
[narrating; heaves Roger and forces him to meet Anita just in time]
Roger Radcliffe Oh!
Anita Radcliffe Ohhh!
Roger I beg your pardon. Please excuse me.
Anita Radcliffe I must say, what on earth! Oh, really. Good heavens.
Roger Radcliffe Oh, dear!
Roger Radcliffe Oh, oh.
Anita Oh, my new spring suit and my new hat!
Roger Radcliffe I’m terribly sorry. Please let me help you. I’m so sorry. I don’t know what’s come over him. I’m so sorry. He’s never acted this way before.
[helps Anita]
Anita Radcliffe Please, just go away! You’ve done enough. Please?
[annoyed]
Roger Radcliffe Oh. Oh, I say. Here, take mine.
Priest Wilt thou love her, comfort her, honour and keep her in sickness and in health; and forsaking all others, keep thee only unto her so long as ye both shall live?
Roger Radcliffe I will.
Cruella's Demands and Thieves' Discontent
Cruella de Vil Dognapping!" Can you imagine such a thing? "15 Puppies Stolen". They are darling little things. Anita and her... and her bashful Beethoven! Pipe and all! Oh, Roger, you are a fool!
[evilly laughs]
Cruella de Vil Hello? Jasper! Jasper, you idiot! How dare you call here!
Jasper Badun But we don't want no more of this ere! We want our boodle! We'll settle for half!
[as Horace tries to get his attention]

[to Horace]
Cruella de Vil WHAT?!?!
[thinking she was insulted]
Jasper Badun No, no, not you, miss! I mean Horace here!
[on the phone]
Cruella de Vil Why, you imbecile!
[annoyed; angrily slams down the phone]
Jasper Badun's Frustration Expressed
Jasper Badun Ah, shaddup!
Unexpected Arrival Amidst Uncertainty
Captain Any news, Colonel?
[sticks his head out to ask his superior a question]
Colonel Not a blasted thing. They're lost or captured, or something, or other. Who knows what.
Sergeant Tibbs Colonel, sir, Colonel! Here she comes a car.
[sees Cruella's car driving down the road]
Colonel Oh, come now, Tibs. Don't be ridiculous. They wouldn't be driving.
Sergeant Tibbs Yes, I know, sir. But it's heading for Hell Hall. It... It's stopping at the gate!
Colonel It is? Blast it all, Tibbs! Better see what's up. On the double, man. On the double!
Sergeant Tibbs Yes, sir.
[jumps on Colonel's back as they head for the de Vil mansion]
Colonel Take over, Captain!
Captain Righto, sir.
[respectfully wishes Colonel and Tips a good luck]
Quizmaster I'm sorry, Mr. Simpkins. The answer is no. No, no, no, no. Six down, four to go.
Inspector Graves Ah, was this a single item or a number of things?
Quizmaster It must be a yes or no question, Inspector.
Cruella de Vil I've got no time to argue. I tell you it's got to be done tonight. Do you understand?! Tonight!
[turns off the TV]
Horace Badun But they ain't big enough.
Jasper Badun You couldn't get half a dozen coats out of the whole kaboodle.
Sergeant Tibbs Coats?! Dog-skin coats?!
[spying]
Cruella de Vil Then we'll settle for half a dozen! We can't wait! The police are everywhere. I want the job done tonight!
Horace Badun How are we gonna do it?
Cruella de Vil Any way you like. Poison them, drown them, bash them in the head! You got any chloroform?
Jasper Badun Not a drop.
Horace Badun And no ether...either.
Jasper Badun Eye-ther"!
[violently bonks Horace on the head with his wine-bottle]
Cruella de Vil I don't care how you kill the little beasts, but DO IT! AND DO IT NOW!
Jasper Badun Aw, please, miss. Now have pity, will ya? Can't we see the rest of the show first?
Horace Badun We want to see "What's My Crime?
Cruella de Vil Now listen, you idiots! I'll be back first thing in the morning! And the job better be done or I'll... I'll... I'll call the police! DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!
[angrily hits Jasper and Horace's faces; She slams the door behind her in a fit of rage; the slam causes a chunk of the ceiling to come loose and fall on Horace's head]
Horace Badun I think she means it, Jasper.
Jasper Badun Ah...we'll get on with it as soon as the show's over.
[turns the TV back on]
Quizmaster Will you please sign in, sir?
Sergeant Tibbs Hey, kids. You'd better get out of here if you want to save your skins.
Dalmatian Puppy 1 But, how?
Sergeant Tibbs Shh. There's a hole in the wall there by the door. C'mon, shake a leg. Psst. Kids, follow me.
[points to the hole in the wall right by the door]
Horace Hey, Jasper, look! Ha-ha-ha-ha. It's old Meathead!
[laughing]
Jasper Yeah, what do you know: Old Meathead Fauncewater!
Sergeant Tibbs C'mon, now. Don't crowd. One at a time! One at a time!
Quizmaster Now, for our last contestant this evening, panel, meet Mr. Percival Fauncewater. Now, Mr. Fauncewater, if the panel fails to guess your unusual crime in ten questions, you will receive two weeks vacation at a fashionable seaside resort, all expenses paid. That is, of course, after you've paid your debt to society.
Quizmaster Now, um, who will take the first question? Inspector?
Inspector Graves Ah, Mr. Fauncewater, could your crime be classified as larceny? A theft, you know? A burglary of some sort?
Sergeant Tibbs Straighten out! Form a queue along the wall. C'mon, snap it up. Faster!
[orders the puppies to line up against the wall, as more puppies sneak past the Baduns and meet up with the others, whispering]
Quizmaster Mr. Fauncewater is a burglar by trade, but in this case, his crime was not burglary. I'm sorry: The answer is no. One down, nine to go. Miss Birdwell?
Miss Birdwell If your crime wasn't robbery, wherein did you... Oh, dear, what I mean is... Do something of a violent nature, that it is..
Quizmaster Oh, come, come, come, Miss Birdwell, we're running short of time.
Miss Birdwell Oh, yes, of course. So sorry. Did you do someone in?
Sergeant Tibbs Oh, blimey!
[sees Lucky watching the game show with interest]
Quizmaster Oh, no, Miss Birdwell, I'm sorry. The answer is no. Two down, eight to go. Mr. Simpkins?
Mr. Simpkins Oh, yes. Your crime was not robbery and not homicide. Well then, could it be a violation of a city ordinance of some sort?
Sergeant Tibbs Psst. Hey, kid, let's go.
[tries grabbing Lucky's tail, but Lucky leans up to get a closer view of the screen, where Mr. Fauncewater whispers something into the Host's ear]
Quizmaster I see. Uh, uh, no. The answer is no, no, no.
Horace Hey, get out of the way, you little runt!
[roughly hands Lucky to Jasper who angrily tosses him aside]
Quizmaster Three down, seven to go. Inspector?
Inspector Graves Oh, this is very confusing, I must say, strictly. Surely, this crime could...
Quizmaster I'm terribly sorry. I'm afraid we've run out of time.
Jasper Badun Aw, now, ain't that always the way!
[annoyed]
Quizmaster Would it be possible for Mr. Fauncewater to come back next week? Then, we could finish our little game. Goodnight, audience. See you next week at the same time on "What's My Crime?
Jasper Badun Oh, well. C'mon, Horace. Let's get on with it. I'll pop em off, you do the skinnin'.
[yawning as he and Horace put on their coats; evilly grabs a fire poker]
Horace Badun Oh, no, you don't, Jasper! I'll pop em off and you do the skinnin'.
[evilly pulls off a chair leg and uses it as a club]
Jasper Badun Hey, Horace, look! They're gone! They flew the coop, right out through this little hole. Here, grab a torch. We'll run em down before you can say "Bob's your uncle".
[notices all the captured puppies are gone; pulls out a flashlight]
Jasper Badun There they go, Horace, up the stairs. Here, puppies. Here, puppies! C'mon. Now, don't go hiding from your ol Uncle Jasper. Aw, I ain't gonna hurt ya.
[creepily calls for Rolly's attention]
Horace Badun But, I thought we was gonna pop em off.
Jasper Badun Shut up. Now, take a squint in there, and I'll check these other two rooms.
[puts his hand in Horace's mouth to shut him up]
Jasper Badun Here, puppies. Puppies, come on out. Come out wherever you are.
[looks under the bed and is startled by Sgt. Tibbs]
Jasper Badun Horace! Oh! It's that mangy tabby cat! He's the ringleader! Head em off, Horace! Head em...
[gets plowed over by the puppies]
Jasper Badun You bungling blockhead!
[ticked off; angrily punches Horace on the head]
Sergeant Tibbs Back here! Back here! Shh. Here they come.
[leads the puppies downstairs and right under the stairwell to hide from the crooks, who are catching right up with them]
Jasper Badun Double-crossin little twerps, pullin a snitch on us, and after we took care of em all this time. There's gratitude for you.
[grumbles angrily]
Horace Badun It ain't fair, Jasper.
Jasper Badun Naw.
Jasper Badun Hey, Horace, there they go!
[points to puppies]
Colonel Sergeant? I say, Sergeant.
Sergeant Tibbs Sorry, sir. No time to explain. Busy, sir!
[respectfully tries to explain]
Jasper Badun Shut that door, Horace! We'll close in on em. Enough of this "Ring Around the Rosy".
Cruella's Determination to Find the Puppies
Cruella de Vil Well?! Any sign of them?!
Jasper Badun Not so much as one bloomin’ footprint. And we've been up and down every blinkin’ road in the whole county.
Horace Badun We're froze stiff! We're givin’ up--
[shivering, wrapped up in a]
Cruella Oh, no you don't! We’ll find the little mongrels if it takes till next Christmas! NOW GET GOING! And watch your driving, you imbeciles! You want to get nabbed by the police?! with this?

The Man Hey, lady, what in thunder are you tryin’ to do?! Crazy woman driver!
[angrily]
Perdita Oh, Pongo, look it that!
[sees the Baduns traveling down a mountain road]
Horace Badun JASPER!
Jasper Badun There ain’t nothin’ to it. I’ll give him a bit of nudge, and shove him in the dirt! Ha-ha!
[wickedly cackling]
Pongo Perdy, watch out!
Horace Badun JASPER!
[Accidentally snaps the steering wheel off]
Jasper Badun HORACE!
Cruella de Vil You idiots! You... you FOOLS! OH, YOU IMBECILES!!!
[last words simmering with rage; sobbing, completely hysterical]
Jasper Badun Ah, shut up!
[last words annoyed]
Horace Badun Ow!
[last words]
Caution in a Haunted Place
The Colonel They say the ol place is haunted, or bewitched, or some such fiddle-faddle.
Sergeant Tibbs Fiddle-faddle and rot, sir.
[looks at the exterior of Hell Hall]
The Colonel Just the same, Sergeant, use extreme caution. No telling what sort of hocus pocus you might run in to. Well, blast it all, Tibbs! On the double, man! On the double!
Sergeant Tibbs Yes, sir. Righto, sir. Right away, sir. Psst! Rover! Spotty!
[salutes Colonel; leaps off Colonel's back and scampers up a tree branch, finally reaches the windowsill, which crumbles in some parts, wipes his paw on the glass to get a good visual of the hall, sees a large, dark, gloomy foyer, complete with a tall, winding staircase, a plated armor statue with an axe in its hand, and a glowing crack through the wall, opens the window, giving off a creaking sound, then lands on the floor and makes it to the crack, checks if the coast is clear and squeezes himself inside the living room, where he comes upon a yawning dalmatian puppy without a collar]
Rover Hmm, what?
Sergeant Tips Are you one of the 15 stolen puppies?
Rover We're not stolen. We're bought and paid for. There's 99 of us all together.
Sergeant Tips 99?!
[sees a vast sea of dalmatian puppies sleeping across the living room floor]
Spotty How bout that bunch of little ones? They have names and collars. They're not from the pet shops.
Sergeant Tips 15 of them?
Rover We never counted them. They're over there by the TV.
Sergeant Tibbs Then, I'd better count em.
[creeps over to the couch to count the puppies]
Spotty Watch out for the Baduns.
Sergeant Tibbs Baduns?
Rover Those two blokes, Horace and Jasper. They're mean ones, they are.
Jasper Badun Ey, look, Horace! Watch me pot Is Lordship smack on the conk! How's that for callin em, eh?
[throws a dart that lands on a dartboard, laughs evilly; laughs evilly, swats Horace in the belly, and Horace irritatedly looks at him]
Sergeant Tips 1... 2... 3, 4, 5, 6...
[counting]
Horace Badun Hey, Jasper! Come on now. Give us a swig, just a short one.
[impolitely eats with his mouth full of food]
Jasper Badun Now, Horace, this here hogwash ain't fit for a fancy bloke like yourself. Besides, you'd get crumbs in it, you cabbage head!
[sets the wine bottle down next to Tibbs]
Horace Badun All right. Guzzle the whole works, and I hope it gives you collywobbles, that's what. Hey, Jasper, did you...
[take his first bite and notices his toppings are gone]
Sergeant Tips Let me see... 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11...
[counting]
Horace Badun Hey! Get down, you little runt, and stay down!
[angrily pushes Lucky down from the TV set]
Horace Badun Go on! Get out of here, or I'll... I'll black your other peeper.
[angrily threatens Patch]
Sergeant Tibbs Where was I? 9... 9... three more. 12 and... 1, 2, 3. That's 15! They're the ones!
Jasper Badun Blimey! What the... Hey, Horace, look what we got! A tabby cat!
[accidentally grabs Sergeant Tibbs and drinks him which causes him to screech in alarm and run off with fright, sputtering with cat germs and gets it off his tongue; notices Tibbs bounding away as the puppies bark in surprise]
Jasper How'd you like a tabby cat stew? Or a cat casserole? A la MODE!
[armed with a bunch of darts in his hands, laughs evilly; violently throws the darts to kill Tibbs squirming against the wall and cruelly raises an empty wine bottle to aim at Tibbs running away from the living room; laughs evilly; angrily throws the wine bottle at Tibbs, but misses him as Tibbs squeezes back through the crack and The wine bottle shatters in pieces]
Patience in Planning and Timing
Anita Radcliffe Oh, it'll bet at least three weeks. No rushing these things, you know?
[chuckling]
Jasper's Approach to Handling Difficulties
Jasper Badun See, nothing to it! I'll give em a bit of a nudge, AND SHOVE EM IN THE DITCH!
[to Horace while closing in on the moving van; cackles]
Jasper's Determination Against the Dalmatians
Jasper Badun I'll skin every one of them little spotted hyenas if it's the last thing I do!
A Mysterious Phone Call Unfolds
Roger Radcliffe Maybe it’s Scotland Yard. M-Maybe they found something. Hello? Uh, hello, Inspector? I--
Cruella de Vil Is Anita there?
Roger Radcliffe Who?
Cruella de Vil Anita!
Roger Radcliffe Uh… it’s for you.
Anita Radcliffe Hello?
Cruella de Vil Anita, darling.
Anita Radcliffe Oh, Cruella.
Cruella de Vil Oh, Anita, what a dreadful thing. I just saw the papers. I couldn’t believe it.
Anita Radcliffe Yes, Cruella. It was quite a shock.
Roger Radcliffe What does she want? Is she calling to confess?
Anita Radcliffe Roger, please!
Roger Radcliffe Oh, she’s a sly one, she is.
Anita Radcliffe Yes, yes, w-w-we’re doing everything possible.
Cruella de Vil Have you called the police?
Anita Radcliffe Yes, we--we called Scotland Yard. But, I-I'm afraid…
Roger Radcliffe Where are they?!
[angrily confronts Cruella]
Anita Radcliffe You idiot! Sorry, Cruella. Yes... if there’s any news, we’ll let you know. Thank you, Cruella. Roger, I admit she’s eccentric, but she’s not a thief.
[takes the phone back; hangs up the phone]
Roger Radcliffe Well, she’s still number one suspect in my book!
Anita Radcliffe Well, she’s been investigated by Scotland Yard. What more do you want?
Roger Radcliffe Oh, I don’t know, darling. I don’t know.
Anita Radcliffe Oh, Roge. What’ll we do? What’ll we do?
Pongo Perdy...I'm afraid it's all up to us.
Perdita Oh, Pongo. Isn't there any hope?
Pongo Well, yes. There's the twilight bark.
Perdita The twilight bark? But dear, that's only a gossip chain.
Pongo Darling, it's the very fastest way to send news. And if our puppies are anywhere in the city, the London dogs will know. Now we'll send the word tonight when our pets take us for a walk in the park.
Unexpected Visitors at the Home
Nanny Here, here. Now Patch, you settle down. Oh, dear. Go to sleep now. Close your little eyes. That’s a good little one. Now, who do you suppose...?
[answers the door]
Jasper Badun Good evening, ma'am. We're here to inspect the wiring and the switches.
Horace Badun And we're from the gas company.
Jasper Badun Electric, electric.
[angrily prods Horace]
Horace Badun Oh. Electric company!
Nanny Oh, but we didn't call for any inspection.
Jasper Badun Oh yes, I know. See, there's a new Act just passed in Parliament. Comes under the heading of the "Defence of the Realm Act": Article Four, Section 29. Very important - it's the law! And it's for your own safety, ma'am.
Nanny Well, I don't care what Parliament, Realm or whatever it is says. You're not coming in here, not with the Mister and the Missus gone.
Jasper Badun Oh, now. Come off it, Ducky. We got no time to palaver. We got a job to do. EXCUSE ME!
[rudely storms through the door]
Nanny What's the matter with you two?! You got cloth ears? I said you're not coming in here!
[clumsily falls on her bottom]
Jasper Badun Ho, ho, ho! She's a regular old tartar, ain't she, Horace?
[laughs mockingly, then evilly heads upstairs]
Nanny Don't you dare go up there, you big long-legged lummox! Now I mean it! If you don't get out of this house, I'll call the police, I will! Now be off with you, you big...you big weasel!
[angrily chasing Jasper]
Jasper Badun Now you've been gone and done it. You've cut me to the quick, lady. Why, I wouldn't stay here if you asked me to. Not even for a cup of tea. Oy! Horace, me lad! I've got a sneaky suspicion we're not welcome here. Pack up, we're leaving. Sharp's the word, and quick's the action.
[Nanny angrily throws a teapot at him, but it misses and breaks; evilly calling down for Horace while trapping Nanny in the attic; we see Horace downstairs with a bag, heading for the puppies in the kitchen]
Nanny Let me out! Help! I'll call the police! Help!
[angrily pulls on the door]
Jasper Badun Goodnight, Ducky! Ta-ta!
[offscreen]
Nanny Why, these good-for-nothing hoodlums! Electric company. Huh! They're nothing but common sneak thieves. I'll bet they made off with the good silver. Why, I bet they took every last... Oh! The puppies! The puppies, they're gone! Patch?! Lucky?! Rolly?! Oh, they took the puppies! Oh...whatever will I do? Those scoundrels! They stole the puppies! Police? Help! The puppies! Police! Somebody help me out! Help! Help! Help!
[furiously gets up; goes over to the window, and sees them drive off; angrily runs down the stairs to the kitchen; as she gets there, she is horrified to find the empty puppies' bed; looks around frantically; runs out the kitchen and out on the street]
Puppy Theft News Spreads Among Characters
Lucy Towser, what's going on? What is it? What's all the gossip?
[waddles up to him]
Towser Taint no gossip, Lucy. It be all the way from London.
Lucy You don't say!
Towser 15 puppies stolen.
Lucy But there's no puppies around here. Not since Nellie's last litter. And they're all grown up.
Towser Well, then, we'd best send the word along. It be up to me to reach the Colonel! He be the only one in barking range.
Lucy You'll never reach him at this hour!
Towser Well, I can try! I'll bark all night if I have to. Ahem!
[barks loudly, reaching an old farm establishment, where a gate with a sign above reads "Lancers: H.M. Forces Ret.: Maj. General S.F. Smedley: The 9th Queen's Royal Lancers". A grey farm horse named Captain opens the stall door]
Captain Hmm-hmm-hmm. Hmm... sounds like old Towser. It's an alert. Sergeant! Sergeant Tibbs! I SAY, SERGEANT!
[neighing lowly; peaks louder to wake up Sergeant Tibbs, a tabby cat sleeping on his back; neighs loudly to wake up Tibbs]
Sergeant Tibbs Who? What? Oh, yes, Captain!
[screeches, then promptly salutes]
Captain Barking signal. It's an alert. Report to the Colonel at once.
Sergeant Tibbs Yes, sir. Righto, sir. Right away, sir! Colonel? I say, Colonel! Colonel, sir? Colonel? Colonel?!
[respectfully salutes Captain; hops off Captain's back and scurries along the barn rafters to find Colonel. He reaches an empty barn stall with plenty of hay scattered on the floor and looks for Colonel; yelps as Colonel wakes up]
The Colonel What? What? Who goes there?
Sergeant Tibbs Sergeant Tibbs reporting, sir.
The Colonel Tibbs? Tibbs? Oh, yes, Sergeant Tibbs!
Sergeant Tibbs Colonel, sir-
The Colonel Now, look here, Tibbs. What's the idea of barging in at this hour of the night?
Sergeant Tibbs But, Colonel...
The Colonel Hold on, Sergeant. You hear that? Sounds like an alert.
Sergeant Tibbs Yes, Colonel.
The Colonel Well, we'd better look into it. Come along, on the double!
Sergeant Tibbs Yes, sir. Righto, sir.
[follows Colonel to the stall next to Captain's stall, just as Captain himself hears the last of the message]
Captain It's old Towser down at Withermarsh, sir.
The Colonel By Jove, yes! So it is. Well, I'll see what he wants. Ahem!
[barking]
Towser It'd be the Colonel. The old boy himself! He wants the message.
[chuckles]
Lucy You'd better make it loud and clear or he'll never get it.
The Colonel One long howl, two short. One yip and a woof.
Sergeant Tibbs Two yips, sir.
Captain What's the word, Colonel?
The Colonel It's from London.
Sergeant Tibbs It must be important.
The Colonel Sounds like a number. Three fives are 13.
Sergeant Tibbs Um, ah, that's 15, sir.
The Colonel 15? Of course 15! Yes, dot, spot, spot, spotted puddings...poodles...No, no, puddles.
[more barking]
The Captain Puddles, sir?
The Colonel 15 spotted puddles stolen, oh, balderdash!
Sergeant Tibbs Better double-check it, Colonel.
The Colonel Hmm? Oh, yes, yes, I suppose I better. Two woofs, one yip and a woof.
[barks, then barking in the distance in response]
Sergeant Tibbs It sounds like puppies, sir.
The Colonel Of course, puppies!
Sergeant Tibbs Colonel, Colonel, sir, I just remembered. Two nights past, I heard puppy barking at Hell Hall.
The Colonel You mean the old De Vil place? Nonsense, Tibbs! No one's lived there for years.
Captain Hold on! There's smoke coming from the chimney!
The Colonel By Jove, that's strange... strange indeed. I suppose we'd better investigate. I'll send word for ol Towser to stand by.
[barking]
Towser Please... stand... by.
[receives the last message from the Colonel]
Lucy What's he mean by that?
Towser I don't know. Oh... maybe the ol boy's found something!
Lucy Oh, I do hope so!

[scared]
Roder Radcliffe Oh, must be Cruella, your dearly devoted old schoolmate. Cruella de Vil. That’s it! ♪Cruella de Vil, Cruella de Vil, If she doesn't scare you, No evil thing will... To see her is to, Take a sudden... chill! Cruella, Cruella de Vil. The curl of her lips, the ice in her stare. All innocent children had better beware. She's like a spider waiting, For the kill...

Anita Radcliffe Oh, Roger. Ohh! Roger, she’ll hear you! Let her in, Nanny.
Cruella de Vil Anita, darling!
[first words bursts through the door]
Anita Radcliffe How are you?
Cruella de Vil Miserable, darling, as usual. Perfectly wretched! Where are they? Where are they? For heaven sakes, where are they?
[gleefully]
Anita Radcliffe Who, Cruella?
Cruella de Vil The puppies! The puppies. No time for games. Where are the little brutes?
Anita Radcliffe It’ll be at least three weeks. No rushing these things.
Cruella de Vil Anita, you’re such a wit. Here, dog, here. Here, dog.
Anita Radcliffe Cruella, isn’t that a new fur coat?
Cruella de Vil My only true love, darling. I live for furs. I worship furs! Is there a woman in this wretched world who doesn’t?
Anita Radcliffe Oh, I’d like a nice fur, but there are many other things…
Cruella de Vil Sweet, simple Anita. I know, I know! This horrid little house is your dream castle... And poor Roger is your bold and fearless Sir Galahad!
[walks over to the coffee table and rudely sticks her cigarette in one of the cupcakes, ruining the frosting; bursts out laughing]
Anita Radcliffe Oh, Cruella...
Cruella de Vil Then, of course, you have your little spotted friends. Oh, yes, I must say, such perfectly beautiful coats.

Anita Radclife Roger, you are an idiot!
Pongo Perdy?
[goes to the kitchen and sees Perdita hiding under the stove]
Perdita That witch. That devil woman. She wants our puppies. That’s all she’s after.
Pongo Don’t worry, Perdy. They’re on to her. Nothing’s going to happen to our puppies.
Perdita But, what does she want with them? She can’t possibly love them. Oh, Pongo. I was so happy at first, but now I… Oh, I… I wish we weren’t having any.
[tears up; sobs]
Life in a Small House with Friends
Pongo For the first six months or so… we lived in a small house near the park. A modest little place, but just right for two couples who were just starting out.
[narrating]
Pongo Perdita, darling, are you all right?
Perdita Oh, of course, dear. After all, dogs were having puppies long before our time.
[licks Pongo on the face to reassure him, as a smile runs across his face]
Pongo Oh, that’s Nanny, a wonderful cook and housekeeper. She’s such a kind, understanding soul. You know, at times she seems almost canine.

A Ride Home Amidst Danger
Labrador Pongo, I’ve got a ride home for you!
Pongo A ride home? Perdy, did you hear that?
Perdita Pongo, there she is: Cruella.
Pongo Yes… and Jasper and Horace.
Perdita Pongo, how will we get to the van?
Pongo I don’t know, Perdy. But somehow, we’ve got to.
Lucky Mother, Dad, Patch pushed me in the fireplace.
Patch Lucky pushed me first.
Lucky Did not.
Patch Did too.
Lucky Did not.
Lucky Did not!
[angrily sticks a tongue at Patch]
Perdita Please, children, don't quarrel.
Pongo Say...Perdy, I've got an idea.
[rolls around in soot]
Perdita Pongo, what on Earth...?
Pongo Look! I'm a Labrador! We'll all roll in the soot! We'll all be Labradors!
Labrador Say! That is an idea!
Pongo Come on, kids! Roll in the soot!
Penny You mean you want us to get dirty?
Pepper Did you hear that, Freckles? Dad wants us to get dirty.
Cadpig Mother, should we?
Perdita Do as your father says.
[sighs]
Pepper This'll be fun!
Cadpig I always wanted to get good and dirty!
Pongo That’s the stuff! The blacker, the better!
Lucky I’m ready.
Patch Me too!
Freckles How’s this, Dad?
Pongo Wait a minute. Now, that’s enough. Not too many at a time. Uh-oh. Rolly, hold on, son. You’re only half done.
[to puppies; stops Rolly]
Labrador And now, stay right with me, kids.
Penny We’re gonna fool the ol’ mad lady.
[giggles]
Perdita Pongo, I’m so afraid.
[nervously]
Horace Badun Look, Jasper: Do you suppose they disguised themselves?
[points out the puppies]
Jasper Badun Say now, Horace. That’s just what they did. Dogs is always paintin’ themselves black! You idiot!
[angrily hits Horace on the head]
Pongo Well, so far, so good. C’mon, Perdy. Better get on your make-up. I’ll go ahead with the next bunch.
[watches them from the window back at the blacksmith's shop; leaves to get the next bunch of puppies, until Perdita sees Cruella coming in her car and ducks down to avoid being seen by her as Cruella passes the window the other way. Pongo and the puppies wait to move outside, until Cruella stops her car. Perdita then sees Horace and Jasper coming and runs off to hide. Before Jasper gets a closer look, both he and Horace hear Cruella blowing her horn]
Cruella de Vil Jasper! Horace! Well?
[angrily shouts]
Jasper Badun Aw, now, be reasonable, miss.
Horace Badun We’re froze clean to our bones.
Jasper Badun We’ve been out all night and all day and with nothin’ to eat.
Cruella de Vil They’re somewhere in this village, and we’re going to find them! Now get going!
[speeds off]
Pongo Do you think they’ve seen us?
Labrador No, but we’re running out of time.
Car Mechanic Try ‘er again, mate.
Pongo Hurry, Perdy. The van’s about to leave.
Labrador Better hurry.
Pongo I’ll get the rest.
[leaves the grab the last bunch]
Car Mechanic Well, that ought to do er. At least, she’ll get you back to London.
[closes the truck hood]
Labrador Better get aboard, miss.
Horace Badun Hey, Jasper.
[whacks Jasper softly on the butt to get his attention. Then, Jasper shakes his fire poker on the door, scaring the puppies into hiding.]
Jasper Badun C’mon, Horace.
[head go to the back of the blacksmith shop to investigate the interior, but Pongo catches up to the last of the puppies and leads them out just in time.]
Pongo Hurry, kids! C’mon, kids. Run on ahead.
Freckles She’s watching us, Dad.
Pongo Keep going. Keep going.
Cruella de Vil It can’t be! It’s impossible!
[glares in her side-view mirror]
Labrador Run for it puppies!
Cruella de Vil JASPER! HORACE! JASPER! There they go! In the van! After them! AFTER THEM!
Evening Plans and Concerns Among Friends
Jasper Badun There they go, Horace, me lad. Out for their evening constitutional. A lovely pair of turtledoves. Around the Johnny Horner, and off to the park.
[first words]
Horace Badun Yeah, but I don't like it, Jasper. One more pinch and they'll throw the keys away.
[first words]
Jasper Badun Ah, come off it, Horace. We're getting plenty of boodle!
Horace Badun Yes, but, uhm, I've been thinking-
Jasper Badun YOU'VE BEEN THINKIN’?! Now, look here, Horace, I warned you about thinkin’! I've got the knob for this job, so let's get on with it. Ohh, nobody home but the little ol’ cook. Now you just leave her to ol’ Jasper. He can handle her real diplomatic-like!
[grabs him angrily; starts up their truck and drives it up to the doorsteps of Roger and Anita’s flat. The truck makes sputtering noises along the way and stops with a squeak. Jasper and Horace emerge from the truck and walk up the doorsteps, as Horace as a handbag in his hands]
Horace Yeah, but uh, I still don’t like it.
The Arrival of the Puppies
Pongo Poor Perdita. Of course, she had no choice. The puppies arrived right on schedule one wild and stormy night in October.
[narrating]
Roger Radcliffe Steady, boy.
[yelps; pats Pongo's head]
Nanny The puppies are here! Oh… the puppies are here!
[excitedly tells them]

Roger Radcliffe 10 puppies.
Anita Radcliffe 11.
Nanny Wait a minute now, wait a minute… 12!
Roger Radcliffe 12?
Nanny 13!
Roger Radcliffe 13?
Nanny No, no, no. 14.
Roger Radcliffe 14?
Nanny Ohh… 15!
Roger Radcliffe 15?
Nanny And the mother’s doing fine, love. You ducky thing, you.
Roger Radcliffe 15 puppies? Why, Pongo, that’s marvelous! It’s fabulous! Why, you old rascal!
Nanny 14. Just 14. We lost one. Oh, poor little thing.
[returns with a grim expression on her face as she holds one of the puppies being stillborn in a blanket; gives the stillborn puppy to Roger, as Pongo looks on with grief. Roger massages his hand on the puppy]
Roger Radcliffe Oh, Pongo, boy. It’s just one of those things. And yet… And yet, I wonder. Look, Pongo. Anita! Nanny. Fifteen! We still have 15!
[Slowly but surely, the puppy regains consciousness as it whimpers, fascinating Pongo for the better. A miracle has been made by Roger]
Anita Radcliffe Oh, Roger, he’s all right! Thank heavens!
Roger Radcliffe See? He’s just as good as new.
[gives Lucky to Nanny]
Anita Radcliffe Can you imagine, Roger? 15 puppies!
Cruella de Vil 15. 15 puppies. How marvelous. How marvelous. How perfectly… Ugh! Oh, the devil take it. They’re mongrels; no spots! No spots at all! What a horrid, little white rat! Ugh!
[looks at Lucky with repulsion]
Nanny They’re not mongrels! They’ll get their spots! Just wait and see!
Anita Radcliffe That’s right, Cruella. They’ll have their spots in a few weeks.
Cruella de Vil Oh, well, in that case I’ll take them all. The whole litter. Just name your price, dear.
Anita Radcliffe I’m afraid we can’t give them up. Poor Perdita, she’d be heartbroken.
Cruella de Vil Anita, don’t be ridiculous. You can’t afford to keep them. You can scarcely feed yourselves.
Anita Radcliffe I’m sure we’ll get along.
Cruella de Vil Yes, I know. I know! Roger’s… Roger’s songs! Enough of this nonsense. I’ll pay you twice what they’re worth. Come now, I’m being more than generous. Blast this pen! BLAST THIS WRETCHED, WRETCHED PEN! When can the puppies leave their mother? Two weeks? Three weeks?
[evilly breaks into another laugh riot, as Roger and Pongo glare at her; she tries to sign, but her pen isn't working; Cruella shakes her pen, causing ink to fall off, and eventually squirting it on Roger and Pongo's faces]
Roger Radcliffe Never.
Cruella de Vil What?
Roger Radcliffe We're not selling the puppies. Not a single one. Do you understand?
[nervously, but standing his ground]
Cruella de Vil Anita, is he serious? I really don't know Roger.
Anita Radcliffe Well, Cruella, he seems-
Cruella de Vil Surely he must be joking.
Roger Radcliffe No, no, no, I mean it. You're not getting one. Not one. And that's final.
[more firmly]
Cruella de Vil Why, you horrid man! You... you... All right. Keep the little beasts for all I care. Do as you like with them! Drown them! But I warn you, Anita, we're through. I'm through with all of you! I'll get even! Just wait! You'll be sorry! You fools! You...YOU IDIOTS!
[angrily rips up the check; furiously throws the pieces of ripped check paper at Roger; she angrily slams the door and Pongo barks loudly at her as she drives away]
Anita Radcliffe Oh, Roger! You were magnificent, darling.
[embracing her husband]
Nanny Oh, he was a bloomin hero, ma’am! Indeed he was. A bloomin hero!
Pongo Perdy? Perdy, darling? We’re keeping the puppies, every single one of them. My ol’ pet Roger, he told that devil woman off. He told her off, Perdy. She’s gone. Darling, she’s gone for good.
[leaves the scene and runs downstairs to meet up with Perdita, who is resting with their newborn puppies]
Perdita Oh, Pongo...
[relieved]
Pongo's Quest for Love and Companionship
Pongo My story begins in London, not so very long ago. And yet so much has happened since then, that it seems like an eternity. At that time, I lived with my pet in a bachelor flat just off of Regents Park. It was a beautiful spring day, a tedious time of the year for bachelors. Oh, that’s my pet, Roger Radcliffe, a musician of sorts. I’m the one with the spots. My name is Pongo. And you know... as far as I could see, the old notion that a bachelor’s life was so glamorous and carefree was all nonsense. It was downright dull. It was plain to see that my old pet needed someone. But if it were left up to Roger, we’d be bachelors forever. He was married to his work, writing songs. Songs about romance of all things, something he knew absolutely nothing about. Oh, he’s intelligent enough, as humans go. And I think you could say, Roger is a rather handsome animal in his way. I could see no reason why my pet didn’t deserve an attractive mate. At least I was determined to do my best. Of course, dogs are a pretty poor judge of human beauty. But I had a rough idea of what to look for. Hmm! Unusual breed. Very unusual. Hmm! Oh, surely not. Well now, what have we here? Hmm. Well, a little too short coupled. Nope! I say! Well, I do say! Now there’s a fancy breed. Hmm. Perhaps a little too fancy. Yes, much too fancy. Too old. Too young. It was a problem, a real problem. Well, now that’s a bit more like it! The most beautiful creature on four legs! Now, if only the girl-Well! She’s very lovely too. It was almost too good to be true. I’d never find another pair like that, not if I looked for 100 years. Ah, they’re heading for the park. A perfect meeting place if I can only arrange it. Uh-oh, but Roger never stopped work ‘til after 5:00. That would be too late.
[narrating; leans up on all fours and stretches while yawning. He watches Roger smoke his pipe and continue practicing, as we then see Roger's living room with discarded music notes across the chair and floor and a cello in one of the seats; sees a shaggy saluki and her beatnik human pet walk to the park; sees a small, stout pug and her similarly dignified human pet walk the opposite direction; A purple-colored poodle with black-haired bangs and her sophisticated owner pass by; A cocker spaniel and her elderly owner ride along on their bicycle; A little girl in yellow and her yellow labrador puppy walk down the street; sees their ideal wives: An identical Dalmatian with a blue collar named Perdita and her human owner, Anita; sets the clock hands five minutes after 5:00 with his nose]
Lost and Found in the Search
Perdita Oh, Pongo, Pongo, I'm afraid we're lost.
[concerned]
Pongo It can't be far.
[barks loudly to get the Colonel's attention]
The Colonel By Jove! It can't be the Pongos.
[hears Pongo's barking in the distance; gallops and barks in response, until he slips on a frozen pond and into a snowbank, where he continues barking]
Pongo It's the Colonel. Come on, this way.
[listens to Colonel's barking]
Pongo Colonel? Are you the Colonel?
The Colonel Oh, Pingo! Uh... Uh... Pongo?
Perdita Our puppies! Our puppies, are they all right?
The Colonel No time to explain. There's trouble. A big hullabaloo. Come along! Follow me!
Jasper Badun Ah, ha-ha-ha! Now, we’ve got ‘em, Horace. They‘ve run out of room! Hey, what have we got here?! A couple of spotted hyenas?! C’mon, Horace, old pal! Give ‘em what for! I’m right behind ya, lad!
[cackling wickedly; Pongo and Perdita suddenly crashes in, snarling; they both start attacking]
Jasper Badun Oof! Oh, you clumsy clod!
[angrily kicks Horace]
Horace Badun Hey, Jasper! I’ll knock the spots off you! Let go! Let go!
The Colonel Well, by George!
Jasper Badun You mangy mongrel!
[violently kicks Pongo against the wall]
Jasper Badun I’ll knock your blinkin block off!
[smashes the wall with his crowbar]
Jasper Badun YEOW!!
The Colonel Blast ‘em, Tibbs. Go on, give ‘em what for.
[looks through a hole in the door]
Sergeant Tibbs No, no, Colonel! Retreat, retreat!
The Colonel Yes. Oh, yes, of course. Retreat! Retreat, on the double!
Horace Badun Help, Jasper, Jasper! Get me out of here!
Jasper Badun Hey, Horace, they’re fighting dirty!
Horace Badun Oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh! JASPER!
[falls in the fireplace; hits his head in the fireplace and bolts away, as he puts out the flames on the seat of his pants]
Jasper Badun HORACE!
Pongo C’mon, Perdy. Let’s go.
Jasper Badun I’ll skin every one of them little spotted hyenas, if it’s the last thing I do!
[angrily shakes his fist]
Confrontational Threat from Jasper Badun
Jasper Badun Outta my way, ya barkin haystack, or I'll knock your blinkin block off!
