Well, good-bye.

Sir, if you ever need another manager...

And if you ever need another errand boy...

Sir...

FOR IMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY

FOR RENT

Gentlemen, care to go for one last ride?

This is the life, eh, boss?

Let's pick up my girl.

Cheeky devil!

So you'll do it?

Wait a minute! My cigarette!

Hey, come for a drive!

Sir...

we usually have breakfast around this time.

Pardon me. I'll do the shopping today.

My boss.

Miss Sprack.

- Spitz. - Miss Sprack.

Not a drop of gas left.

Darn it.

There's a gas station!

Come on, let's push.

Give us a hand, will you?

Look out! It's downhill!

One gallon, please.

No smoking.

I couldn't have paid for gas anyway.

Gentlemen...

care to go for one last ride?

My cap!

Faster!

Come on!

Come on!

No!

None of that.

He'll be back.

Wait and see.

Watch out! A dog!

- What are you looking for? - Our breakfast.

It's right there.

- Have it towed. - With what?

- That's the mongrel! - Get away.

It's my dog.

My cabin...

is very close by.

Damn drivers!

Please don't step on the strawberries.

Nice, isn't it?

I painted these myself.

I even had one with my name on it.

Perhaps it'll be famous one day.

Excuse me.

Here you are.

Gosh, are you filthy!

Dirty little dog!

So what will you do now?

Go on the dole.

Can I do that too?

No. Executives haven't made it that far yet.

Then something has to happen.

Yes, something has to happen.

Gentlemen, let's start a business.

- What kind of business? - We'll figure that out.

Stay put.

Everyone has to have a bath sometime.

Two marks and 10 pfennigs.

What about you?

Eighty pfennigs.

We can't start anything with three marks.

Just a minute.

I just might be willing

to invest this property

as collateral for the company.

Excellent!

Initial capital for the company: 20,000 marks.

Keep on scrubbing, young lady.

Mine needs a bath too.

All right, but there'll be a small fee.

I think we should proceed to elect the board.

Considering my years of experience -

No, sir. That's how we went broke.

I say no.

But the purpose of this enterprise -

But we have some property.

- Let's sell it. - No one has any cash.

Perhaps a fruit farm.

And wait for the apples to ripen?

I want work I can really sink my hands into.

- My pay. - For what?

Washing a dog.

- What? - Washing a dog.

Washing a dog?

Take this down, Spitz.

Type of business: Dog-washing establishment.

We'll do it up big. Banners...

and advertisements.

LADIES! WE WASH, GROOM, AND BOARD DOGS

SOCIETY FOR THE CARE OF DOGS

Now all we need is customers.

Your dog, ma'am, is -

I've heard that line before.

Ma'am, we wash dogs.

It's not worth it.

He was just washed, and he's dirty again.

Come on, pooch.

Where'd all these dogs come from?

It's all about connections.

Good job, Spitz.

What about the owners' addresses?

Shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

My little dog is very delicate, miss.

Please put him down.

- Why? - I have seven of them.

This is the sixth. How much is it?

Ten marks.

What procedure do you use?

Prussic acid or electrocution?

Whatever you prefer.

Electrocution.

But don't hurt him.

Go on.

No, I'm too soft-hearted.

Then you do it, Spitz.

HYDROGEN PEROXIDE

This is fake!

Then you didn't have to kill it!

Murderers!

I feel so awful.

It's alive! Thank God!

Keep the noise down! This is outrageous!

A dog-washing business is a commercial enterprise,

and that's forbidden in our community!

Feed the dogs.

Hey, stop!

Stop!

Oh, my!

They're gone. So much for that.

Well, I tried my best.

That's all we needed.

Bachelor's tax, crisis tax, payroll tax,

business tax, sales tax, poll tax, and canine tax.

- How come? - We just opened for business.

- Think we'll wait till you fold? - Too late for that.

I have a blank form for such cases.

By order of the court.

Hey, that table's on loan!

Hey, that belongs to my girl!

There's room here too.

He's mine.

I'd like my dog spruced up for a beauty contest.

- A beauty contest for dogs? - I want to win the thousand marks.

Excuse me?

We're terribly sorry,

but we're not accepting any more business.

We've folded.

That's too bad. Good day.

Good-bye.

Well, then...

We're going to the beauty contest.

We're going to the beauty contest.

Why's that boy running after that dog?

There's a 300-mark reward out for a dog that looks like that.

REWARD - 300 MARKS

REWARD - 300 MARKS

"My wirehair terrier has escaped.

Reward for his safe return.

Has black spot on rear. Baroness Von Siegfried."

That's Toni's dog.

They're at the beauty contest.

Do sit down.

- I won! - And the thousand marks?

- That was the prize. - Butt out!

Hey, that's my dog!

My little doggie! My pookie!

Little Fifi, you're back!

Three hundred marks!

Thank you so much.

Jealous fool!

Pri-Com-Corp.

The Prize Competition Corporation.

You saw how much we could make.

I'm afraid the money won't be enough

to get credit.

My dear Spitz,

when you've got money, you don't need credit.

Okay, let's try again. We'll make it eventually.

We already won one prize.

What about the 300 marks?

We'll use it to get the car back.
