The scene opens in the park with Marco trying to stick a straw into a juice box. | |
Marco Diaz | Okay Diaz, you got this. Aim it at the little... [the straw becomes scrunched, angry muttering] All right, going again. [laser puppy jumps on juice box] Hey, this is hard enough already. Star, can you please get control of these puppies? I'm trying to focus. |
Star Butterfly | Oh yeah yeah yeah, no problem. Totally. Come on guys. I believe in you, Marco. |
Marco | Star, I'm concentrating. |
Star | Right, right, right, right, right. Okay, I'll be quiet. Even if no one else does... I believe. |
Marco | Got it. I'm trying to focus. [mirror rings] Ugh. Just answer it please. |
Star | Ugh. [opens mirror] Hey mom. |
Queen | Star, your Aunt Felicity still hasn't received her thank-you card for the lovely necklace she sent you. |
Marco | Grr, just give me the juice! |
Star | Yeah, I can't right now Mom. Things are happening. |
Queen | You said that the last time... |
Star | [closes mirror] Marco, did you free the nectar from the juice cocoon? |
The puppies start shooting lasers. | |
Marco | Get the puppies out of the way. |
Star | Oh, stop it puppies. Here [grabs her wand], go fetch [throws it]. Oh no! |
Marco | Did you just throw your wand? |
Star | I threw my wand. The poo-poo bin! No, no, no! [bounces off the trash can into a bush] Oh, thank Mewni. Saved by the bush. [wand is pulled into bush] What? [reaches for it] Got it. [pulls out dog holding wand in mouth, screams] Oh, you're just a doggie. For a second, I thought you were a gargoyle. Thank you for bringing me my wand [touches the wand]. |
Dog | [growls] |
Star | Ooh! [touches the wand] |
Dog | [growls] |
Star | I can just... |
Dog | [growls] |
Star | Let me just get... |
Dog | [growls] |
Star | All right dude, this is annoying. Is your person here somewhere? |
Marco | There's no one else in the park, Star. Everyone always leaves when we get here... for some reason [pulls out fire extinguisher to quench a fire]. The laser puppies are hungry. Just grab your wand. Let's go. |
Star | Hmm. |
Scene changes to the Diaz's house, sometime later. Star holds the dog, which still has the wand in its mouth. She taps its muzzle to a coat rack. | |
Marco | Star, what are you doing? That's a dog, not a coat. |
Star | Fur coat. |
Marco | No. Look, you're basically a pet owner now; you're gonna have to feed him. He'll put the wand down if he wants to eat. |
Dog | [eats food with wand in mouth, walks into the bathroom] |
Marco | Okay. |
Star | Is that normal? |
Dog | [flushes toilet, uses sink, leaves bathroom] |
Marco | Sorry, this is your problem. I'm gonna go to bed. Come on puppies. [goes upstairs with laser puppies] |
Star | [to dog] Hi. So it's bedtime now, and I sleep best with my wand right under my pillow, even though my mom says not to because of [yawns] radiation [falls asleep with dog]. |
Dog | [growls] |
Scene jumps to Marco's room. Marco is asleep with the laser puppies, but the new dog is staring at him. | |
The next morning, Marco wakes up and walks down the stairs. | |
Marco | Star, you down here? |
Star | [wakes up, the dog beside her] What? |
Marco | [screams] Star, come on. We gotta get going; we're gonna be late for school. |
Star | [groans] Okay, okay. Just give me a sec [reaches for wand] |
Dog | [growls] |
Star | [picks up dog] Magic doggie, [shakes dog] get me ready for school. [puts dog on head] Alright. Guess it's a hat day. |
Scene changes to Echo Creek Academy. Marco is still complaining about the juice box. | |
Marco | They make this for kids, just open! |
Principal | Miss Butterfly |
Star | What?! |
Principal | Where are you going with that dog? |
Star | he's got my wand. |
Principal | A dog in a classroom is a roadblock to learning. Do not come back until you get rid of that dog. |
Star | Ugh. |
Jackie | Cool hat Star Butterfly |
Star | Shut up. |
Scene changes to later at the Stop and Slurp. Star is on a call with her mom. | |
Queen | Star, you have to send your aunt a thank-you card. It's a really nice necklace. |
Star | I can't talk right now Mom, I just got kicked out of school. |
Queen | What? |
Star | [hangs up] |
Cashier | Uh, no dogs in the store. [no response] Sure. Ignore me. I'm not like a person with feelings. Or anything. |
Star | [puts down a slurpee] |
Cashier | That'll be a buck fifty. |
Star | Oh, I can't make any money right now 'cause my dog has my wand. |
Dog | [growls] |
Star | See? |
Cashier | Right. On your tab then? |
Star | Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's Marco Diaz. Cool. Thanks Joe. |
Cashier | Name's not Joe. |
Star | And my name's not Marco. [sees a lost dog poster, gasps] Lost dog! |
Poster slides away due to it being on an automatic sliding door | |
Star | What? Come back. |
Door continues to open and closes | |
Cashier | Please stop that. |
Star | Sorry [giggles, grabs poster]. "Lost smallish medium-to-large dog." You're a smallish medium-to-large dog. "Dog-ish face." Yep, dog-ish face. "May or may not bark" [holds hand to dog] |
Dog | [growls] |
Star | You may or may not bark! I'm pretty sure this flyer is talking bout you, mister. "Call 555-0199." Okay, 555-0199. |
A phone rings inside the store. | |
Cashier | Hello. Thank you for calling... |
Star | Hi. I got your flyer and I think I found your dog. |
Cashier | I do not have any pets. |
Lydia | [to cashier through a window] Tee! Is someone calling about the dog? |
Cashier | Uh, yeah. |
Lydia | It's for me. [grabs phone] Hello. This is Lydia. |
Star | Hi. I found your dog. I am outside the Stop and Slurp. |
Lydia | Be right there. |
Star | Okay, bye. |
Lydia | [walks around corner to Star] Hiiii. |
Star | Hi. Here for this little gargoyle? I found him. Here you go. |
Lydia | Come to Mommy, my little, um... Willow...bee. |
Star | Right, okay. Can you get Willoughby to drop my wand? |
Lydia | I... I can do that. Willoughby, put it down. Where are you going? |
Willoughby walks into the restroom and uses the toilet. | |
Star | It's, uh, cool you taught your dog to use the bathroom. |
Lydia | Yeah [nervous giggle] |
Star | That's not your dog, is it? |
Lydia | [nervous giggle] |
The dog leaves the bathroom, Star picks him up and runs. | |
Lydia | But I have... so much love to give. |
Scene jumps to Marco at his home. He is talking to one of the laser puppies, with his juice box in hand. | |
Marco | Stand up. |
Puppy | [stands] |
Marco | Bark. |
Puppy | [barks] |
Marco | Now play pirate. |
Puppy | [squints left eye shut] |
Marco | Now laser the hole. |
The dog shoots a laser into Marco's eye. | |
Marco | [shrieks, his eye starts emitting red light] Okay, everything is half red. |
Star | [walks in] |
Marco | Star, where have you been? |
Star | I don't wanna talk about it. |
Marco | Okay. |
Star | Today was the worst day ever Marco. I got sent home from school, I couldn't make any money so I had to put everything on your tab. |
Marco | What? |
Star | I was harassed by a weird lady, and worst of all, Willoughby still won't give me back my wand [groans]. |
Marco | His name's Willoughby? |
Star | That's what the weird lady called him. I thought I found his owner, but she was just a fake. |
Marco | Yeah, this flyer's obviously fake, but let's go back to the dog park and see if his real owner put up a flyer. |
Star | [sighs] Okay. You know your eye is glowing, right? |
Marco | I know. |
Scene transitions to Marco and Star at the park. | |
Marco | Hmm, nope. |
Star | [holding Willoughby like a metal detector] Beep, beep, beep. Where's your owner? |
Lady 1 | My problem is, I'm stuck in a doubt loop. |
Lady 2 | You so are. |
Star jumps on the ladies' table, holds Willoughby to the second's face, and beeps rapidly. she holds it over the first's and buzzes. | |
Star | Mm-mm [walks back to Marco] Come on, Willoughby. |
Marco | [trying to open the juice box]Why is this so hard? |
Star | I know, right? |
Marco | Oh, right. Your thing is hard too. |
Star | [frowns, groans] |
Willoughby | [Ears rustle rapidly] |
Star | Willoughby senses something. [gasps as a man approaches] Marco, look. Beautiful businessman. Go Willoughby. Go to your businessman. |
Willoughby | [runs towards businessman] |
Star | [gasps] |
Willoughby | [stops, runs towards outhouse] |
Star | [burst in to outhouse] that's it! What the... |
Willoughby looks in the mirror, waving the wand with his hand. | |
Willoughby | [hands Star the wand, in a female voice] Sorry. |
Star | What just happened? |
They leave the outhouse | |
Star | Who are you? |
Willoughby | It doesn't matter. |
Star | Why did you take my wand? |
Willoughby | [sigh] Because in my dimension, dogs are the ones with all the problems. There's no escape. [grabs Marco's juice box] Only sadness. [pokes the straw in] It's easier if you poke it from the bottom. |
Marco | You did it. [sips] White grape. |
Willoughby | All I really want is to be... like them [gestures at the laser puppies]. I thought if I zapped myself with your wand, I could quiet my troubled mind. |
Marco | [sipping] |
Star | But you can't just run away from all you're problems. |
Marco | [chokes] You run away from your problems all the time. |
Star | No, I just take breaks. |
Willoughby | That's what I want. I want a break. |
Star | You don't need magic for that. You need a chew toy [creates a bone shaped toy]. And you need to play fetch [lifts up her wand]. |
Marco | No, Star! No fetch. |
Star | He. Oh yeah. And you need a Marco too. [calls Lydia with mirror] Hey Lydia, I found your dog. Again. |
Lydia | [jumps out of a bush] I've been here all along. Come here, my sweet little boy. |
Star | Actually, he's a girl. |
Lydia | It doesn't matter. My little cake pop. It's time to come home. |
Star | Go on. |
Willoughby | I guess it couldn't hurt. |
Star | Wait. There's one more thing [gives her necklace to Willoughby]. |
Willoughby | Your necklace? I couldn't. |
Star | Eh, it's a win-win. This way, I don't have to send my Aunt Felicity a thank you card. [baby talk] Now go get your Lydia. |
Willoughby | Uh, why are you talking to me like that? |
Star | [baby talk] 'Cause that's how we talk to wittle doggies [pushes Willoughby to Lydia] |
Lydia | [picks up Willoughby] This is what happiness feels like. |
Willoughby | [pants] |
Lydia | Thank you for finding my dog. Bye [runs away] |
Star | See, Marco? I do face my problems [mirror buzzes] |
Marco | Is that your mom calling again? |
Star | [shoves him] Break! |
