Man's Best Friend

You guys want some pork rinds? Sit back, man.
I can feel your hot pork breath on the back of my neck.
Turn down the radio.
I can't hear you guys back here.
Tell you what, when we're saying something important - we'll give you a signal.
- [ both laughing .]
Yeah, one finger salute to you too.
Now pull over.
I've got write my congressman.
- What will you give me? - I'll give you a stain on your phony leather seat covers.
Now pull over.
Just joking around, Chester.
You know you the man.
Who's the man? You the man.
How could I possibly be the man, when you know you the man? That's right, I the man.
Happy trails, Chester.
Hey, get back here! Hey, how the hell am I supposed to get home? Oh, nuts.
[ whimpers .]
Hit the road! Beat it.
Go.
Look, pal, I don't even like dogs.
Especially puntable little frasier dogs like you.
I'm not in the mood to play.
Because my friends just ditched me.
I'm looking at a five-mile walk home and if they weren't my only friends I'd dump them in a second.
But you wouldn't understand.
Now get lost.
[ barking .]
Oh, idiot.
You got to be more careful, Buddy.
Oh, yeah.
You're welcome.
You're my Buddy.
Yeah.
You're my Buddy dog.
Okay, Buddy.
Bam! [ laughs .]
That's Daddy's good boy.
Come on, let's go inside.
Come on.
Come on.
Look, he's portable.
You just earned yourself a bowl of beer.
Well, that was just too cute.
Yeah, it was cute the first 400 times.
Besides, he doesn't play dead very well.
You can see his stomach moving when he breathes.
Well, I don't care what you two cynical little weenies think.
Chett loves that dog.
I think it's sweet.
Oh, my God.
- This is so cute.
- Yeah, he's great, isn't he? - He sure is.
- Yeah.
He's just there, you know? - I wish people could be more like Buddy.
- How so? My friends are all jerks.
Let's just leave it at that.
But who needs humans when you've got a buddy like this? You know, you could have this both ways.
- Both ways? - I can make Buddy human.
All the loving loyal qualities of a dog but in convenient human form.
Wow.
Would you like that, boy? Go to ball games with Daddy? Pee standing up? Drive the jeep when Daddy's had a few too many? Buddy's on board.
Wait a minute.
Why are you being so nice to me? I like this side of you.
And people are a little like dogs.
When they're rewarded for good behavior they usually keep it up.
- Good boy.
- [ barks .]
Buddy, stand.
Buddy? Daddy? That's a good boy.
Stop it.
Buddy? You okay? - He seems a little freaked.
- He's fine.
Just give him a minute.
How do you think you'd feel if you'd just been zapped from a dog into a man? Right, right, right.
Good point.
Yeah.
I better take a time out.
Come here, Buddy.
Have a seat.
I'll give you the lowdown on what it's like to be a member of the hairless butt club.
Buddy? What's the matter, boy? [ whimpers softly .]
No couch.
"Bad dog.
Get down!" It's okay, Buddy.
You're allowed.
- Really? - Humans can sit wherever they want.
[ Buddy whines .]
Soft! Nice.
Feels good.
Anyway the touch thing about walking on two legs is [ barking softly .]
So this is dog man.
Hmm.

- I think he wants a chip.
- Gee, you think? Come on.
Give him a chip.
Mm.
Mm! Good.
More? Buddy, don't beg.
Bad! [ whimpers .]
So this guy was once a dog, huh? You'd never know it to look at him.
[ whimpers .]
