Welcome to San Francisco,

the city by the bay --

Home to 30,000 fire hydrants,
4 million tennis balls,

and very liberal
pooper scooper laws.

My name is lucky.

I'm a dog,
in case you hadn't guessed,

and I belong to this man.

You remember Dr. dolittle,
right?

The guy who can talk
to animals?

If you don't,
let me jog your memory.

He's a doctor,
and he talks to animals.

Well, anyway,
he's busier than ever.

- Doctor.
- Yes.

You've got Mr. Carson
at 10 for a full workup.

Mr. wennington's e.K.G.'S
at 12.

Mrs. bloom called.
She got a bad rash on her back.

- I told her 11:15.
- Okay, got you.

Buster's deworming is at 12:30.
Misty's kennel cough is back.

I put her in at 1. Afternoon
wall-to-water neuters.

You've got the rotary club
dinner tonight.

You've got the kennel club
breakfast tomorrow.

Okay, push Mr. Carson's workup
to 11.

I will deworm Buster at 12,
do the e.K.G. At 12:30.

Move misty to 1:15,
and, look, lucky,

you've gotta stop mixing up
my charts.

Last week you almost had me
neuter Mr. panitch.

Oh, yeah, well,
from what I hear,

you'd be doing Mrs. panitch
a favor.

Anytime, ladies. Thank you.

to help animals.

Hi. My name is bandit.

- Hi, bandit.
How you doin', bandit?

[ Sniffles ]
And I'm a stray.

- That's okay.
- We're all strays.

I know how hard it is
the first time

to get up there, bandit.
Take your time.

- Just one paw at a time, bandit.
- That's true.

That's right.
Never give up hope, bandit.

Never ever give up hope,
and not just bandit.

All you dogs, listen to me.

Every dog in here can find
a family

and be somebody's best friend.

- Mm-hmm.
- Let me hear you say that.

Say,
"I am somebody's best friend."

Dogs:
I am somebody's best friend.

One more time again.
"I am somebody's best friend!"

Dogs:
I am somebody's best friend!

That's right. That's right.

Also, there's a family
out in north beach

that's trying to find
a good watchdog --

Somebody that's housebroken
and great with kids.

Any of you guys got a background
in security?

Oh, that'd be rusty.
Rusty's a watchdog.

Who's rusty?

- Rusty, tell -- oh, no.
- Rusty.

This better be important.

- No, uh, never mind, rusty.

there definitely are laws

an endangered species of bear,

a female whose mother
had been killed by poachers.

She's the only pacific
Western bear up there.

Well, that's good. One bear has
to be protected, right?

Well, no. The lawyers for
Potter's logging company argued

that since she's the only one
up there,

there's no chance for survival
of the species anyway.

- There'd have to be a male, too.
- Pardon me.

Why don't we just get a male
up there,

get the two of them together,
and let nature take its course?

- If I may...
- Well, unfortunately,

the only male
pacific Western bear...
- Psst!

That we could find
was raised in captivity.

a bear raised by "circus folk"

wouldn't know how to feed itself
or interact with real bears,

let alone make it through
its first winter.

No. It would certainly succumb
to Darwin's law of nature --

Survival of the fittest.

Actually --

Well, yeah,
but Darwin's never met my dad.

Young lady,
that's inappropriate behavior.

And just who is your father?

Sir, your honor, that's me.
I'm her father. Name's dolittle.

Dr. dolittle.

Dr. dolittle?

Do you feel you could
rehabilitate a tame bear

and mate it in the wild
with a female?

Yes, I do, your honor.

In that case, I'll grant
a one month's delay

on the harvesting
of Campbell's grove.

For one month, Dr. dolittle.
That's it.

Thank you, sir.

And, doctor, if that bear
should so much as set one paw

in a campsite or this town,

I'll rescind this order
immediately.

I understand completely.
Thank you, your honor.

- Thank you.
- Thank you, your honor.

[ Gavel bangs ]

Woman:
Dr. dolittle, over here!

Dr. dolittle, you speak to both
domestic and wild animals.

Can the circus bear relate
to a forest bear?

Well, I don't know much
about him,

except that he's been
living in captivity,

so I'm sure he'll be really
happy to return to the wild.

[ Camera shutter clicking ]
[ Mouths words ]

So much for a family vacation.

But doc figured,
how hard could this be?

That was before he met Archie.

with somebody like her.

Oh, look, I have had so many

Okay, look, I've never had

Bring her by on Monday.

That's when I'm dark, okay?

Oh, no, no, no,

- You have to go to her.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

- Go to her? Where?
- Um, she's in the forest.

Ooh, uh,
I don't play forests.

I'm strictly state fair,
small arena type bear.

Archie, do you know
what kind of bear you are?

Um, let's see. Yes.

I'm a singer, dancer,

three years' tap,
two years jazz...

No, Archie,
you're an endangered species.

Hey, is that a threat, buddy?

Because my lawyer
will be down here --

It's not a threat.
I'm not threatening you.

What I'm saying is that
you're a very rare bear.

You're what's called
a pacific Western bear.

- You know what that is?
- Yes. I know.

Look, I can play
any kind of bear.

I've got range --
Grizzly, panda, polar.

Check out my polar --
"I am freezing! It is cold!"

Okay, I haven't made it
clear enough.

Let me break it down to you.

Your ancestors come from
the mountains of California.

- Yes, blah, blah, blah.
- When you were 6 months old,

they took you from your mother
and they taught you

to wiggle your hips to
a recording of "hound dog."

peace and quiet. No, no.
No, I taught myself that.

I admit, I pander 'cause
I'm a pander bear! Get it?

- [ Laughs ] Pander bear.
- Yes, funny stuff, Archie.

But listen,
what I'm proposing to you

is I'd like to take you
back to where

your ancestors roamed,
get you out in the woods

and teach you to be
a real bear.

Look, I like the bear I am,
okay? I'm famous.

Look, have you been
in the gift shop?

I have my own beanie baby.

You do this, I promise,

you'll be the most famous bear
in all the world.

- Bigger than pooh?
- Are you kiddin' me?

You pull this off, they'll be
sayin' "winnie the who?"

You've got yourself a bear.

And in what must be one

of the most unusual stories
of the year,

Dr. John dolittle is trying
to rewrite the laws of nature

by attempting to reintroduce
a performing bear into the
wild.

And, in doing so,

he hopes to save an entire
forest from destruction.

It's Darwin versus dolittle.

Oh, get over yourself.
[ Remote control clatters ]

Governor, I've got two lumber
mills waiting for that wood.

I understand, Joe,
but it's complicated,

especially if that
endangered bear survives.

If I don't meet my quota,
governor,

you're the one
who's gonna be in danger.

Now, now, j.P. Not to worry.

That ridiculous bear is bound
to screw up at least once.

And when he does, you'll have
yourself a new trophy.

And I've got just the place
to put him.

So we all moved to the forest

and waited for Archie
to arrive.

Now, while the family
got settled,

it was time I started
looking out for number one.

Ha ha! Ah? [ Humming ]

Well, this looks like it's as
good a place as any here.

Here we go. Ah.

Hey, hot lady dog, wait.

Where are you goin'?
Call me!

And so the big day finally came

and I had a feeling the fur
was gonna fly.

[ Cooing ]

Okay, everybody,
you all know why we're here.

We're about to try to do
something

that's never been done before.

And everyone thinks that we
can't pull this off,

and they got
their blades sharpened

and their trucks ready to roll.

But we're gonna prove 'em wrong,
right?

That's right. I want everybody
to put their claws together

and how about a big round
of applause

for the bear that's gonna lead
the way?

Let's hear it for Archie!

Yeah!

Come on!

[ Clapping ]

Are you ready
to save the forest?!

Well, put your paws up.

Put your paws up.

- Put...
- Is this some kind of joke?

That's a pretty name, Ava.
Nice to meet you.

- Hi.
- Hey. Quick question, Ava.

How would you like to meet
the man of your dreams?

[ Chuckles ] You're real cute,
but I don't go interspecies.

Oh, no. [ Chuckles ]
I'm not talking about me.

I'm talking about --
I shouldn't have said "man."

- Oh.
- I should've said "bear."

- Okay.
- How would you like to meet
the bear of your dreams?

Look at that big --
What do you think

of that big, magnificent
hunk of bear over there?

Um, I don't think I see him.

Oh, is he standing
behind that dork?

Oh, no, he is...

Look, let me explain to you
what's going on, all right?

There's a logging company

that's gonna tear down
this whole forest -- everything.

- Oh.
- And the only thing that can
stop 'em

is if I can get two
pacific Western bears together.

You're a pacific Western bear,
and so is he.

And if I can get
the two of you together,

and you made little
pacific Western bears, then...

You see where I'm going
with this?

Uh-huh, yeah. Look, no offense,
but I don't talk to bear pimps.

Hey, wait a minute.
At least let me call him over

so you can meet him,
please?

Hey, Archie, come over here.

Hey, Johnny, there you are.

Come on, man, I thought we could
go work out. Jeez.

- Okay, Archie, you're on.
- What do I say to her?

Get to know her a little bit.

Tell her a little
about yourself.

Hi, I'm Archie.

I like moonlit walks
on the beach,

uh, sharing slop buckets
with that special someone

and soulful sounds
of the backstreet boys.

You're very weird.

Weird as in sexy?

No, just... Weird.

Hey, Archie, Archie, uh,

why don't you let me take it
from here?

- That was good.
- Okay.

Damn!

So, Ava, what do ya
think of Archie? Cute, huh?

- Oh, don't make me eat you.
- Stop that.

I know he's a little
uncomfortable

around the female species
at first, but if you give --

That's not even really
the point.

See, I need a real bear --

Someone who can hunt and protect
and provide for me.

Oh. Okay, I can understand that.
Yeah.

And, you know, I'm already
involved with someone.

Really?
You have a boyfriend already?

- A bearfriend.
- Yeah.

Are you in love
with this bear?

Love? Look,
my cousin married for love.

And the next thing she knows,
he's two-timing her

with this hot little grizzly
in a cave up north.

- Okay, so you're not in love?
- No.

All right, let's make a deal.

Don't make any decisions
for a month.

I'm gonna go work
with Archie.

In a month's time, I'm gonna
turn that bear into a bear

that you will be proud to have

are saying?

Dad, I don't know what
the crickets are saying.

I don't speak to the animals.

You're the one
who understands them, not me.

Little monkeys don't come up to
me and ask me for a 40 ounce.

I don't say "can I help you,
little animal?"

Do you need a shot?"
I don't do that, dad.

- Hey.
- I'm up in my room,
listening to music.

- Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Do you see me talking
to the animals?

Hey, hey. Slow it down
a second now.

I was just gonna tell you

that the crickets are nature's
thermometers. That's all.

Now you can tell how cold it is
by how fast they chirp.

Okay.

doesn't it?

that I was gonna stay

- Mama said so.
- Oh, your mother said so.

- Yes, mom.
- Oh, okay, Eric,

you're gonna have to be on

in a sleeping bag
on the floor,

if you don't have a problem
with that.

Uh, and, by the way, Eric,
I'm watching you.

And not just me. You know,
I got eyes all around the woods.

You know, I talk to
the birds, right?

- Thanks, dad.
- Yes.

- Watch your back.
- I hear you.

- Yeah, you feel me?
- Yeah, I feel you.

Okay. All right. I'm watching!
I'm watching you, Eric.

I'm watching your back!

Man:
Bears are opportunistic eaters,

finding food wherever
they can...

Can we please see
what else is on?

No, we can't see
what else is on.

You need to watch this,
Archie,

to learn how to feed yourself
and survive during the winter.

What is he doing, diggin'?

You never even wondered

what your sharp claws
was for, have you?

Uh, no.

Bears are excellent swimmers.

[ Laughs ] Not this bear.

I know you're not gonna sit
there and tell me

you don't know how
to swim.

Wait, you haven't heard?
There's a new invention.

It's called... The boat.

Okay, that's the last straw.

Tomorrow morning, we're gonna
get up at the crack of dawn

and I'm teaching you
how to fish.

How about noonish?

Unbelievable.

And so began the bearathon,
a training mission so grisly,

so unbearable, so hairy...
Okay, that's enough.

All right, Archie,
let's do it.

This river's full of fish.
Let's go.

Yup. So is red lobster.

Hey, don't look at me.
Look at the water.

That's where the fish are.

They're moving.
Oh, man, one just touched me!

- What just touched me?
- Look, you big furry baby,

I want you to put your face
down in that water right now

and grab a fish!

- No.
- Archie, I want you to do
just like you saw on TV.

Put your face under the water
and catch a fish.

You can do it! Come on, man.
I'm here with you.

Go under the water.

All right! I'll try it.

All right. 1, 2, 3.

[ Inhales deeply ]

That's it!

- Whassup?
- Whassup?

- Whassup?
- Whassup?

Oh, fellas, whassup?

Okay. Okay, get one.

[ Yelling in muffled voice ]

Hey! Archie! Archie!

[ Grunting ]
[ Pounding ]

[ Belches and groans ]

Okay, Archie, now you tell me
how smart you have to be

to lift your head out of the
water when you can't breathe.

I saw a light.
It was a bright light.

It was beautiful.

Okay, that's it. We're gonna
take you on

a little trip right now that's
gonna toughen you up.

- Come on.
- What? What?

We're gonna find something
even you can catch. Come on.

I saw my grandma.

[ Birds chirping ]

Go on, eat.

- Oh. I...
- Come on, eat.

They're --
I don't eat the...

I'm good, thanks.

Okay, am I close?

Cold.

Use the force.

Colder? Warmer? Arctic.

So, how's it going?

I think it's going great.

I'm not even gonna need
three weeks.

Honey, look, he's already
foraging grapes, right?

Why's he walkin' away
from 'em?

He's not walkin' away from them.
He's circling the grapes.

Why?
Are they dangerous grapes?

No, no. The grapes aren't
dangerous, Eric.

Archie:
Seriously, where are the grapes?

Don't worry. He's doing great.
We're right on schedule.

Ah, gettin' dizzy! Aah!
Ohh! Ohh!

[ Tumbling ]
Ohh!

[ Crash ]
I'm okay!
The concrete broke my fall.

[ Metal clatters ]
Definite bruise.

Now explain this again.

I'm supposed to climb in
to a small, dark space

and sleep for six months?

Yes, that's what bears do.
It's called hibernation.

Sounds more like depression.
Wait, how do I eat?

Well, you don't eat.
What you do is, uh,

you eat a lot during the summer,

and that lasts you
throughout the whole winter.

Where do I go
to the bathroom?

Well, there's no going
to the bathroom.

[ Laughs ] What?
You're kidding.

I'm serious. What you do is,
a week before you hibernate,

you start eatin' things
like dirt and moss

and hair and grass, and it forms
a big, big plug in your, um,

it plugs up your -- your, um,
well, you know.

It blocks my butt?

Yeah, blocks it all up
with this big, nasty, hairy plug

of hair and grass.

Big, nasty plug.

Whoa, wait.

So you want me to sleep
for six months

with a big cork in my butt?!

Yeah, that's the idea of it.

Okay, goodbye!

- Hey, Archie!
- See ya later.

- Archie, come back here! Archie!
- Nope, I'm gone. See ya!

- Hey, headin' South?
- Archie, listen,

nobody's gonna pick up
a hitchhikin' bear.

Look, I'll split the gas and sit
in the back with the kids.

Come on, now, Archie.
Stop it.

Sorry, doc.
This isn't workin' out.

I almost drowned.
Ava doesn't like me.

Hey, I'm sick and tired of
your complaining, Archie, okay?

- Bird.
- Right.

A bird in his home.
And on the branch below him,

there's a squirrel in his home,
and down there by the fence

is a little rabbit
in his home.

All these animals
are depending on you.

Okay, you can do this.
Just listen to your inner bear.

Okay, just trust him.
He'll tell you what to do.

Just trust him, Archie.
Come on.

Okay, but I gotta tell you,

Hey, doc?

Yes.

Um, can you leave
that light on?

Okay. Light stays on.

I'll keep these here, okay?

[ Rubs palms together ]

Night, Archie.

Night, doc.

If you want a marshmallow,
you just gotta ask me, okay?

[ "Eye of the tiger" playing ]

Look out, Ava!
There's a new Archie in town!

Oh, yeah, that feels good!

Feel it comin'.

Feel the burn!

Feel the wind.

Feel the muscle cramp!
Ow! Aah! Ow!

Come on, Archie.
Don't quit.

Let's go. Come on!

Doc finally realized he was
never gonna make Archie

fast enough or strong enough
to impress Ava,

but maybe -- maybe he could
make him sweet enough.

Wow. How could anybody be
so beautiful?

Why don't you go down there
and tell her that?

Uh, I don't know. I...
Oh, my...

What is that?

Oh, that's Sonny.
That's her little bear friend.

She told me about him.

But he's a kodiak bear.

Hey, don't get discouraged, man.
Listen, you can win her over.

The key
to winning a woman over

is you just figure out
what she likes.

- Like, take my wife...
- Please!

Hey, don't do that.
This is serious.

I'm sorry.

My wife, she --
She likes to be surprised.

You mean like jumping out
the bushes, screaming?

No, nothing like that.
They like romance.

Do something romantic,
something that says,

"I'm thinking about you
all the time.

You're always on my mind,"
you know?

Wow, that's really nice.

You do stuff like that
all the time?

I used to.

But lately I've been,
you know, all...

You know caught up in this,
so I guess

I'm a little
out of practice.

My candles, my fruit,
my cheese, wine. Perfect.

Oh, hey, honey.

I... Whoops!

- Come on.
I can give you some pointers.
- Found him.

No more intrusions.

Come on, it ain't no fun if
the homies can't see nothin'.

Now where were we?

Well, you were thinking
a few candles and some wine

would make up for ignoring me
for the last few days.

I'm sensing
a little resistance,

and I took that
into consideration.

I know something
you won't be able to resist.

set Archie up. I got a witness.

offer them to evidence.

you got any better ideas?

Well, I'll stall for time.

Maybe we'll get
a private investigator.

They're gonna ship Archie

and ship him off to a zoo
in Mexico.

on the witness stand,

Riley is gonna tear you
to shreds.

- Well, what do I have to lose?
- Your reputation.

Look, I don't care.

I'm not giving up on
those animals this easy,

not without a fight.
Excuse me.

it was a setback,

but we would like one more week
to rehabilitate the bear.

would like to admit

the animal
into the Betty Ford clinic?

the entire thing was a setup?

That would be

the court just for a minute?

Go ahead.

Sir, we have an eyewitness
who'll testify

that they heard a gunshot,

then they saw a truck backing up
to the area

where the shot was fired.

Is that witness here
in the courtroom?

No, not in the courtroom
with us because, um,

he's, um...

He's a weasel.

Your honor, I know this --
This seems very unreasonable,

but I can talk to animals,

and one of them did come forward
with this information, sir.

Your honor,
if it pleases the court,

I have no problem
allowing Dr. dolittle or counsel

the opportunity
to question the eyewitness.

I would just ask
for a brief recess

so that I have opportunity
to get a camera.

I'd like a snapshot of
the animal being sworn in.

[ Laughter ]
That's enough.

Does the weasel need immunity?
Because certainly

we could provide
animal protection programs.

[ Laughter, gavel banging ]
That's enough.

Dr. dolittle,
I will not allow you

to make a mockery
of my courtroom.

The deadline has passed.
Motion to extend denied.

[ Gavel bangs ]

That's a shame.

- You hate to see it.
- [ Laughs ]

[ Gallery murmuring ]

Uh, Dr. dolittle, up here.

Dr. dolittle, can you
tell us what the weasel said?

[ Keys jangling ]

Hey, doc, okay.
Come to get me out?

Um... Sort of.

Sort of?
What do you mean, "sort of"?

Well, I couldn't really prove
your story, Archie,

- so they, um...
- What? They what?

They think you're too dangerous
to be set free, so...

Yeah? What?

[ Sighs ] They sold you
to a Mexican circus.

Ay, chihuahua.

[ Cell door locks ]

Archie, I am --
I'm so sorry.

For what?

For everything. You know,
dragging you out here,

putting you through
all this stuff, giving you hope.

I feel like
I ruined your life.

Ruined my life?
Doc, you gave me a life.

You're the one who taught me
about love,

and no one can ever
take that away from me.

[ Cell door opening ]
Hey, charisse.

What are you doing
down here?

Mom wanted me to tell you

that her motion for an appeal
has been denied.

Well, we knew it was
a long shot anyway.

[ Sighs deeply ]

Archie, at least you'll be back
in show business.

Yeah, that's not what I want
anymore. I just want Ava.

I know you want Ava.

Well, maybe I wasn't meant
to be loved.

Everybody is meant to be loved.

That's right.
Everybody is meant...

Charisse.

Oh, my God.

Charisse, since when?

Couple of weeks now.

At first
it was kind of fuzzy,

but, uh...

[ Voice breaking ]
Now it's really clear.

And this is what you've been
keeping from us, right?

I didn't wanna say anything,
dad,

because I didn't wanna
become a freak.

No, you're not gonna
become a freak.

Not at all. [ Laughs ]

Hey, look, when it started
happening to me,

I got scared, too. You're just
looking at it the wrong way.

This is a good thing.

How?

Look at all the good
that's come out of it already.

What good?

Look at us, like this, huh?
How about this? Huh?

- Mmm!
- [ Giggles ]

Hey, guys, now I know what I've
been missing -- a family.

I guess that's something
I'll never have.

Dad, you gotta help him.

Isn't there something
that we can do?

And it's not just him.
I mean, it's all the animals.

There's so many of 'em.

Yeah,
there are so many of 'em.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

You guys have given up,
haven't you?

Hey, what am I gonna do?
I'm 6 years old.

I'm not a young beaver
no more.

Besides, we've been livin'
in this forest how long?

About a hundred years we've been
shakin' down this forest, boss.

So we had a good run.

Look, I tried to do this
by myself, but I can't.

So if you guys wanna save
your homes,

you're gonna have to help me.

And whether or not
you believe it,

you guys have
enormous untapped power.

- [ Blows raspberry ]
- I'm serious.

Whenever talk about the best
of the best,

it's always
an animal expression.

You got a heart like a lion
or you're as strong as an ox.

He's got eyes like an eagle

or he can move swift
like a gazelle.

Or you stink like a skunk!

- What?
- Sorry about that, man.

I'm just trying to
make my point here.

What I'm trying to say is
we can do this! We can do it!

Just don't give up
without a fight.

Let the word go out from sicily
to seaworld --

The trucks don't move,
capisce?

- The beaver's right!
- Yeah!

All right! Yeah!

- [ Animals cheering ]
- Yeah!

[ Trucks rumbling ]

[ Horn honks ]

[ Rumbling ]

Hey, kids, I'm gonna have
to ask you to move!

- No!
- No?

Listen, don't start with me.

Everybody, take your positions!

[ Barking and growling ]

Hasta LA vista, baby.

[ Barking and growling
continue ]

Roll 'em up!

I ain't never seen
nothing like this before.

None of them have any milk.
[ Mooing ]

- What?
- All of 'em are dry.

[ Mooing ]
What's wrong, Annabelle?

- Strike. Strike.
- All: Strike. Strike. Strike!

Here's your eggs!
You want 'em scrambled?

Strike! Strike! Strike!

Okay, let's go get the frisbee.
Come on, go get it!

Oh!

Strike. Strike. Strike.

- Come on, give me that leash.
- Strike, strike, strike!

Whoa!

[ Playing blues ]

Hey, Archie, all the animals
are working together.

You'll be out of here
in no time.

It's ridiculous.
[ Monkey chittering ]

Animals can't organize.

You may wanna take a look
at this for yourself then.

Man: All over the world,
animals have organized.

They're striking
in Paris, Texas.

[ Screeching ]
In Paris, France,

in Brooklyn, in Mexico,
and in Canada.

[ Turns off TV ]

I'm sure I'm gonna regret this
in the morning,

but maybe you should talk
with dolittle.

And what?

Give in to a bunch of beasts
and lower life forms?

I took on the democrats!

I can take on
a bunch of animals.

Charge!

Oh, no!

[ Shouting indistinctly ]

- [ Gasps ]
- Go on!

- Come on!
- Watch it.

- Go on, beat it.
- Retreat!

Go on. Huh!

Medic!

Organized.

[ Door opens ]

Male: We have two bogeys bearing
Alpha, tango, niner.

Male: We are locked on target,
squad leader.

- Do you hear something?
- Commence bombing.

[ Splatting ]
Roger that, sir.

Well done, men.
I got your wing, iceman.

Party ain't over yet.
I want the short one.

[ Birds calling,
wolves growling ]

Sir?

[ Lowered voice ] Don't make
any sudden moves.

[ Lowered voice ] Gotcha.

- [ Growls ]
- Aah!

Attack! Lock and unload!

Poops away!

Firing number two.

[ Whistling sound ]

Let's return
to base and reload.

[ Door rattling ]
Sir, you, uh,

- you've locked the...
- What?

You've locked the door, sir!

You might wanna...

[ Barking and snarling ]

Sir!

- I think you should run.
- I'm an attorney.

- I was --
- Yeah.

- I'm not with him.
- Run.

There he is again!
Get the little guy!

- Banzai!
- Banzai!

Not the face!

[ Laughs evilly, gasps ]

[ Growls ]

No, please. No, no. I'm sure
we can work something out.

I'm just reaching for my phone.
I'm gonna call Dr. dolittle.

Oh, whoa, whoa,
no sudden movements,

or I'm gonna bite you
in the cannolis.

Uh, hello. The number for
Dr. John dolittle, please?

Not Stuart little. Dolittle.

[ Phone rings ]

Dolittle. Oh, Mr. Potter.
How are you, sir?

Oh, I could be better.

I'm here
with a couple of your friends.

I know you can't
possibly believe

that animals are organized.

Uh, well, you know, I don't know
what to think anymore.

I'll tell you what. Let's put
our cards on the table.

I will be more than happy
to set up a meeting

between you and these animals

so you can work out
your problems.

- What?!
- Hey, look, it's the only way

you're gonna be able
to save face

you won't have to admit
you were wrong,

and you can
get out of this thing

without looking like
an idiot.

Okay, okay, look, anything.
Just - just call 'em off.

Okay, all right, listen.
Put the raccoon on the phone.

[ Mouths words ]

He wants to speak to you.
Make it short.

[ Clears throat ] Hello.
Yeah.

No, no, no,
I got it under control.

Hey, we'll call youse back.
[ Beep ]

First off, let me say that
I am here only as a mediator

and these negotiations
will be between Mr. Potter

and the representatives

of the united animals
of the forest local 534.

Yeah, let's come to order.

- This is my new proposal.
- All right.

What's the stipulations, doc?

What kind of territory
we lookin' at?

It's only, uh, 12 acres here.
It's 12 acres.

I got your 12 acres
right here, pal.

Hey, they like it.

I'll give you somethin'
you like. Like this.

[ Trickling ]

I think that's a "no."

Or "hell, no," maybe.

Lucky: Meanwhile,
the strike kept growing.

Even the pros were getting in
on the act.

[ "Call to post" plays ]
Man: The last few runners left

to load now for
one of the biggest spectacles

of the year --
It's derby time.

Last horse is in, gates closed.

[ Bell rings ]
And away they go!

Horses: Hell, no, we won't go!
Hell, no, we won't go!

- Hell, no, we won't go!
- Run your own stupid race.

- Come on.
- You try running a mile.

Don't even think about reaching
for that whip, shorty.

Woman: [ Amplified voice ]
Ladies and gentlemen, sham...

[ Cheers and applause ]

This is shamu!

[ Crowd murmuring ]

Nah, I don't feel like jumpin'
through any hoops today.

Any of you guys?

Nope, nope, not me. Not today.
I just ate. Unh-unh.

Mr. Potter, I hope
we have a deal now.

[ Ice cubes clink ]

[ Papers rustling ]

[ Sighs ]

- All right!
- All right, doc!

- Yeah!
- Good job.

Taught him everything
he knows.

Vive le bear! Vive le Archie!
Vive le docteur! Ha!

Come on, give me a bear hug.
Come on.

No, absolutely not, Archie.

You're not leavin' here
until you get a bear hug.

All right, all right, give you
a hug. Just a little one.

- Come on. [ Laughs ]
- Okay, all right, that's it.

All right, Archie.
[ Wheezing ]

[ Strained voice ] Archie!
You're crushing my spine.

[ Wheezing ] Archie!

Bye-bye. Drive safe now.
Buckle up.

- Hey, Archie, you in there?
- What?!

Hey, doc.

Hey, man, I just stopped by
to say so long.

Oh, thanks for everything.

You are quite welcome.

Ava: Archie, I'm ready.

Ah, she's in heat.
Excuse me, doc.

Gotta go save the species.
[ Laughs ]

Ohh.
Go do your thing, Archie.

Yeah, Archie. Archie!
[ Chuckles ]

[ Claps hands ]

Oh, Archie.

Lucky:
Yeah, it was quite a summer.

Hey, doc!

Hey, lucky,
what are you doing?

What am I doing?

Hmm. Let me phrase it this way.

Ahh. [ Howls ]

[ Howling continues ]

You, too, huh?

And charisse and the doc
were closer than ever.

Oh, come on. Cheer up, pepito.
You'll get it eventually.

No, I won't.
I will never blend in.

- I have a broken blender.
- You will blend in, trust me.

- You will blend in.
- How?

How will pepito ever blend in?
Pepito sucks.

Aah!

Look at me!
I'm blending in!

I'm invisible!

That's right. You're invisible.
Great job, honey.

Did you ever doubt me?
The blendmaster is back!

- How about that?
- I am king of the third world!

Hey, can we do
the whole house like this?

It's very feng shui!

But the best news of all came
the following spring.

You don't know what
you're talking about.

Kids, come on.
Hey, hoo! Hoo!

Over here, kids! Hoo-hoo!
Over here. Okay.

Now, it's step, step,
turn, kick, step.

Papa, I thought it was step,
kick, turn, step, step.

Come on, kids.
We open in six weeks, okay?

- I thought you retired.
- Uh...[ Laughs ] I did, honey.

We're just playin'. Okay, now,
from the chorus. 5, 6, 7.
