Hi. I'm the Mayor,

Jefferton alive
And now a special message from Channel 5's Married News Team.
Hi. I'm Married News Team anchor Jan Skylar.
And I'm co-anchor Wayne Skylar.
Won't you join us this Saturday
for Jefferton's annual
Toodle Day celebration?
Toodle Day
where the Mayor marries
all the town's dogs together.
Jefferton is the only town
that performs
this joyous
and legally binding ceremony.
It's fun for kids of all ages.
So get there early for free face-painting
and a magic show before the ceremonies.
This reporter's gotten word
that the Mayor has a special surprise in store.
All right.
Now, exactly what is this special surprise you mentioned there?
Gentlemen,
I'm so glad you asked.
As you know there is
a surprisingly high rate of divorce
among these dogs married
during past Toodle Day ceremonies.
My vision is to unite
the right pup together from the get go.
You do this
by getting a special dog to act
as the matchmaker
and head usher for Toodle Day.
You mean,
like a real live animal?
Of course.
This pup will determine
which lady dog is best suited
for which man dog.
He'll be able to distinguish various breeds, temperament
and comprehend complex seating charts.
Sounds like you need
some kind of supernatural dog.
Not to mention
you'd need a highly skilled
world-class dog trainer.
Yeah. From Mars.
I believe he's serious.
OK. Right.
Right over here
Knock, knock.
Hello?
Hello. Mayor's office.
How can I help?
- It's Tom Peters.
- Hello, Tom.
- Can I come in?
- Come on in.
Oh, great.
Put my face right here.
- That's good.
- I'm sorry.
- Did I catch you at a bad time, or
- No, no.
This is looking great.
This is gonna look real good.
All right.
Well, as you may or may not know
my wife Joy is running
for Town Webmaster this year.
Vote for me!
- Vote for me!
- Right.
And she selected me to be her campaign manager.
So I got that happening
and I'm shuffling
a lot of things right now
but mainly I just wanted to get your endorsement.
My endorsement?
You mean my Jan Hancock?
Come on, guy.
I don't have time for this.
Plus, I'm pretty discriminating about what I sign.
I had no idea.
That's why I came in, so
And that's why
I made a stamp.
Well, then,
I'll just get out of your hair.
Great, Tom.
Well, it was nice seeing you.
Wait a minute, Tom.
I have a proposition for you.
What's your experience
with dogs?
Well, minimal.
I mean, my uncle had
a Dutch shepherd I was fond of.
He had a temper with me, though.
Tom, I'm looking for a man
that has the ability to train a special dog
to become the matchmaker and head usher
for this year's Toodle Day.
I suppose I could do
a little research for you.
Tom, will you
and your pup do it?
Well, see, I don't really have a dog per se.
Will you
and your pup do it, Tom?
A customer! Hello.
Thank goodness you're open!
It's Tom Peters.
I'm in a little bit of a pickle here.
- I need a dog.
- Hi, Tom.
Dog? That's what we got.
Look at this behind me.
That's a lovely dog, isn't it?
Well, it has to be this special dog.
Let me check my notes here.
Well, first off,
it has to be single.
You mean, like one dog?
No, I'm sorry.
Like, it's not married.
OK.
Well, how about this one?
He's cute.
But it says here I'm looking for one that would be able
to pair up dogs based on breed
and, you know, mutual attraction
and be able to comprehend
a rather complex seating chart.
OK. OK.
Let me see.
Let me look up some
I'm just looking up stuff
about this lovely dog behind me.
Yes. Yes.
Let me check
one more place here.
OK, count, you say,
single, and yes, yes
This is great! He can do all those things. Perfect!
- This is great.
- What do you think?
Are you sure he can
handle all that?
Yes, yes, absolutely.
OK, Stamps, well
what I did was, I made
this little model for you to practice with.
We have the dogs here
and the seats here
so you can work
on seating them.
Up front is where the Mayor will actually, you know, marry the dogs.
Well, let's see what you can do.
Come on, boy.
Bill Joel, looks like you sold me another lemon.
This is gonna be harder than I thought.
OK, Stamps,
welcome to camp.
You got to pay attention, pup.
Look up here, boy.
OK, it's all about finding the perfect partner.
Good work. Let's do this.
Let's do this!
Now, it's all about the scent.
Watch me.
There's a world of information in here, Stamps.
Looking good, Tom.
Let the smell guide you to your decision.
OK, Stamps, your turn.
Who goes with who?
Yes! You did it!
All right,
let's go celebrate.
Gross!
Joy Peters says
she'll update
the Jefferton website daily.
And she promises to have a flashy design.
Aren't you tired of empty promises
from a proven liar?
It's time to get real.
Paid for by the friends of Paul Childs Jr.
Hey, Tom.
- Who's there?
- It's just me in my chariot.
Who's that little stinker?
- That's Stamps.
- Hello, Stamps.
So you're the matchmaker
I've been hearing so much about.
Great to meet you.
Come here, boy.
Come on, chip-chip.
Let me rub that chin.
So, you're all ready?
Yeah, I think so.
You know,
it took a lot of work
but I think Stamps
is gonna do just fine tomorrow.
Great. Great, Tom.
I wanted to go over
the endorsement again with you.
Tom, can we just focus on the ceremonies for a change?
Toodle Day,
oh, Toodle Day ♪
Thank you, Lord,
for Toodle Day
Easy come and easy go ♪
Grab your partner ♪
All right, buddy.
It's the big day.
I know you can do it.
Don't let me down.

The Mayor's here.
Hi, children.
Hello, Stamps.
Stamps, watch out for the chariot!
Stamps!
--dle Day ⪪
Puppies, chip-chips,
doggies, settle down, now.
Citizens of Jefferton,
welcome to Toodle Day.
Please join me
in a warm round of applause
for the official
Toodle Day matchmaker.
What am I gonna do?
Let the ceremonies begin!
What's that man doing?
I thought he was supposed to be a dog.
That's just not right.
OK, Dutch shepherd andyou.
It's a match!!!
Poodle and
black lab.
What a match!
Wow, he's good.
You're good to go.
Now, I'm not gonna lie to you.
It's not always gonna be this easy.
There are paths
you're gonna have to choose.
You got to learn to love and care for your partner.
It's the most beautiful bond
an animal can experience.
Cherish it.
Great work, Tom!
Just getting something in my earpiece.
It looks like we're getting
some hilarious breaking news.
It seems like someone has taken Toodle Day too far.
Just in. Looks like the man in the picture is Tom Peters
wife of Joy Peters.
And, Jan, as you know,
Joy is in a tough race
for this year's Town Webmaster.
That can't be very good,
coming so close to the election.
Let's take a look at the insta-poll.
- Well, we did it.
- Yeah, I guess so.
Now, Tom, you know I won't be endorsing your wife as Town Webmaster.
- I can appreciate that.
- But you know what?
I'm proud of you,
and I'm proud of us.
I don't know.
I feel like I let you down and Joy
Tom, but don't you see?
You made so many pups
happy today.
You're directly responsible for the union and the joy
that they'll have
for the rest of their lives.
You gave them
the greatest gift of all.
Love.
