On days like this, I feel like
the luckiest dog in the world.

I got the sun on my back.

I got the wind in my face.

I get to ride in this car where
the windows are always rolled down.

My name is Bailey.

You enjoying the breeze, boy?

- I love my boy Ethan.
- Boss Dog.

- And I love my girl Hannah too.
- Boss Dog. Boss Man.

I've lived a lot of lives,
and I've peed on a lot of stuff.

There is one thing I've never
been able to figure out though.

Why does it always itch
right here?

Baby can't come up.
Baby can't come up here.

That's my cue.

I'll meet you in the kitchen
after I do the chores.

You as creaky as me,
Boss Dog?

- Come on.
- Mornings had the best smells.

Sure, we had to do our chores.

Come on, Bailey.

But it always ended
with an egg.

Yeah.

Seriously?

Hey, buddy.

Still think you got one in you,
Boss Dog?

Okay.

You ready?

Born ready.

One, two, three. Go!

Way to go, Boss Dog.

That isn't getting any easier.

Ooh, that isn't
getting any easier.

Hey.

You still got it, Boss Dog.

Yeah.

Good boy.

Come on, let's go
to the house.

Come on, buddy.
Come on.

Come on.

Come on, bacon.
Come on, bacon.

Eh, it's not bacon,
but I'll take it.

Morning.

- Hi, Mommy.
- Hi.

Morning, Gloria.

What time did she wake up,
Hannah?

Oh, wasn't looking
at the clock.

Doesn't matter, though.
We're having fun with our granddaughter.

Hannah used to have a boy
named Henry.

He brought Gloria
into our pack.

We keep feeding her pancakes,
she's gonna get chubby.

Maybe this time
she'll give me a treat.

No? No treat? Okay.

I thought little babies
were supposed to be chubby.

Ethan, shh!

Hannah made that "shh" sound
a lot lately.

- Who's that?
- Daddy.

Daddy. You know,
I think she has Henry's eyes.

Henry went away
and never came back.

Hannah cried a lot.

I licked her face a lot.

I wish my son was alive
to see his adorable daughter.

- Oh.
- She drops it. I eat it.

That's our deal.

Orange.

- Purple.
- Gloria liked to wear food on her face.

But not good food.

Hello? A gross dog
just licked my face.

No, no, that's how it goes
when you're stuck on a farm.

CJ, where are you going?
We're supposed to play here.

What's happening in Chicago?
Tell me everything.

Go away.

Are you guys going out?

I see the horsie.

No, don't go in there!

CJ, stop!

He's scary.

Whoa, boy!

From the way he was breathing,
I knew Ethan was scared.

I don't know.
I feel like...

What are you doing?

Hey... Well, let me
call you back.

CJ just got in with Linus.

Hey, come here.

She could've
been hurt, Gloria.

Bailey saved her.

Let me get this straight.

It's one of those
hero dogs you see on TV?

"Its" name is Bailey.

I love when my boy Ethan says my name.

I'm going inside.

I know what you did, Boss Dog.

Come on.

I don't know where Gloria
found this baby,

but it is a great addition.

CJ is smart and curious.
We just have to keep an eye on her.

Well, I turned my back
for two seconds.

More like two years.

CJ.

- Come on, CJ.
- No.

Clarity. Clarity June.

- Nana, Nana.
- Hey, Mama's here now.

Can you say "Mama"?

Nana, Nana.

All right.

Oh, Clarity June,

that is not funny.

It's kind of funny.

Why doesn't anyone
ever wipe food on my face?

After all
the excitement of the day,

I had to cool off
in the big water bowl.

That's nice and cold.

- Hey.
- You know what that is.

You having fun yet?

Oh!

Grandpa! No!

I leave her with you
for a couple hours

and you have Clarity bathing
with a filthy dog?

Finally, Gloria wants to play.

They're just playing.

All right, get out, dog.

Come on,
they're just having fun.

You know what?

Don't worry, honey.
Mommy's here.

Come on, it's okay.

Oh, I get what
you want me to do.

Oh!

This is why
I don't like dogs.

Maybe you wanted to stick
your nose in my butt?

Gloria is just
so young to be a widow.

Eight months pregnant
when Henry was in that car accident.

I know, honey. I know.

But, Hannah,
where's her maternal instinct?

Gloria's just
trying to figure out

how she's gonna make a life
for herself and CJ.

She's got Henry's insurance
settlement.

Well, that money's been set aside
for CJ's college fund.

You're the one that raised
two kids, not me.

So, if you're not worried about it,
I'm not worried about it.

I'd be worried
if they weren't here.

Yeah.

Mmm-hmm, yeah.
Up, up, up. There we go.

Yeah, right in the middle.

Now slide it down.
Slide it down. Yeah.

Between the three of us,

I think we can give that little girl
the love that she needs.

Ouch!

What is that?

What?

It's a lump.

Big lump.

Please stop
poking that spot on my belly.

I'm gonna take
him to the vet.

Yeah.

- What's going on?
- Hey, buddy. Hi, Bailey.

Somehow, Ethan always knows
when I wanna take a car ride.

Hey, Boss Dog.

I want you to stay put,
okay, buddy?

Dr. Deb said we should
just keep you comfortable.

I can handle all the chores.

I had bad days,
and I had good days.

Today was a good day.

Well, I finally got a call from the,
um, the cruise line...

Gloria spent a lot of time
talking to her hand.

And they needed a singer
for their Stagecoach Lounge...

- Doggy, doggy, doggy.
- I know.

- Um, there's nothing in that cup.
- Doggy, doggy.

Oh, did you make me a cup?

- Here, Nana.
- Thank you.

Well, it's perfect
for me, right?

Mmm!

Delicious!

- That delicious?
- Wait. There was something in that cup?

Yeah, they went with a singer
who does not have a toddler.

I don't know.

Maybe I should, uh,
come back to Chicago.

More?

- Hey.
- Hey.

Hi.

Getting her to go down
for her nap took forever.

You know, Gloria,

um, if you want to
pursue your career,

you could leave Clarity
here with us.

You think I'm a bad mother?

- What?
- Gloria.

No, that's not
what I'm saying.

Are you trying
to take my baby from me?

'Cause my baby is all I have.

Gloria, she's making you
an incredible offer.

I know what this is about.
You want Henry's settlement.

I knew you wanted that money,

so you can fix
this crumbling farm.

This farm is not "crumbling."

Ethan was mad.

I hadn't heard him
talk like that in a long time.

It has nothing to do
with the money.

It has to do with providing
a loving home for CJ.

Well, Hannah, I am her mother.

So wherever I am,
that is her home.

And okay, wow, obviously
I'm not welcome here.

You are always welcome here.

So you can keep telling me all the things
I'm doing wrong every single day?

No, thank you. It's actually not
what I need right now.

Well, what about CJ?
What about what she needs?

Do you ever think about that?

Does anyone ever think
about what I need?

There was trouble in the pack.

Somebody must've eaten
Gloria's food.

Gloria,
please don't leave.

Let's talk about this.
We can work it out.

Whatever it takes.
Please, we can work this out.

You don't seem to understand.
She's my baby, not yours.

Ethan, what are we gonna do?

Gloria.

Hey, Gloria.

Such sadness
from Hannah.

Nana.

Sad like she was after
her boy stopped coming around.

Listen, we want you

to have some money.

Well, no, thanks.

It's for CJ.

Would you just take it?

And let us know
where you wind up.

It's the least you could do.

Gloria.

Bye-bye, CJ.

Love you!

I wanted to chase the car

for Hannah and Ethan,
but...

But I just didn't
have the energy.

I wanted to eat
to make Ethan happy,

but I wasn't hungry anymore.

It was really quiet
after CJ left.

She'll get in touch with us.

Eventually.

It's a little cold out there,
here in Michigan,

so you might wanna
dress warm today.

I love this song.

I do too.

Let's not waste this song.

Come here.

Come here.
Come on. Come on.

You always
make me feel better.

Okay.

Okay. I'm tired,
but I'll do it.

Hey.

- Look at you. You still got it.
- Oh.

- Bailey.
- Bailey, that's me!

Okay.

All right, buddy,
she's taken.

Hey, Dr. Deb.

Hey.

I came out here
and found him laying here.

He's in a lot of pain.

I think it's time.

You've done everything
you could for him.

Do you want a moment?

Bailey.

Bailey, Bailey, Bailey.

You're my good boy.

We had such good times
together, didn't we?

You've done
so much for me.

You think maybe next time
you come back...

You can come back for CJ,
you think?

She needs you
like I needed you.

You can protect her.

And you make her feel happy

like you made me feel happy.

I didn't understand
all the words.

But somehow,
I knew what Ethan meant.

Come here.

Are you ready, Ethan?

Yeah.

All right, champ.
Here we go.

- Yeah.
- Good boy.

- You're not gonna hurt anymore.
- There you go.

I remember this
from before.

A tiny sting,

and then my pain melted away.

Yeah, Boss Dog.

Yeah, bud.

Who's the Boss Dog?

You the Boss Dog.

I love you, Bailey.

Bailey, Bailey, Bailey.

All my pain was gone.

I was in this place,
and it was wonderful.

Ethan gave me a new purpose.

I was going to protect CJ.

And I would never stop looking
until I found her.

I was a puppy again!

I had a mother
and brothers and sisters.

Why are there always
seven puppies and six nipples?

Don't you worry,
mama dog.

I'm finding good homes
for every single one of your cuties.

But it felt like something was
missing this time.

Let's see.

I have ears,
pretty long ones.

I have a tail.
I have a snout.

I wonder if I have a...

Nope.

I'm a girl this time.

It was so great
being a puppy again.

I got to play
and play and play.

There was an old dog
named Mr. Churchill.

He was a lot of fun.

They're a real handful,
eh, Mr. Churchill?

One by one, people took
my brothers and sisters away.

All that was left
was my favorite brother.

I was called Molly,
and he was called Rocky.

Then, one day,
the worst thing happened.

- Rocky was going away.
- So cute.

Who was I gonna play with?

Aw...

Huh?

That girl.

There's something
about that girl.

I smell something familiar.

It smells like...

CJ!

I remember my purpose.

CJ is my purpose!

I can't let her get away.

I'm coming, CJ!

I can't let Ethan down.

Got to get to CJ.

Ah, I got this. I got this.

I got this. I got this.

Oh, I don't got this.

I'm so happy you and Rocky
are a good match.

He's already my best friend.

I'm coming, CJ!

Ugh, this house
has too many fences.

CJ, it's me!

I'm here to protect you.

Oh, psycho puppy.

CJ was a gigantic baby now.

This puppy is insane.

That's Molly.

She and her brother
are inseparable.

Would your family consider
adopting both of them?

I got this.

Think I better get out of here
before they change their minds

about getting one dog.

Mmm, salt. Milk.
Ooh, hamburger. Mmm.

How about you?

Do you think your parents
would let you have a puppy?

My mom does love dogs.

She does?

I'm gonna stop talking.

I know what to do.

I'll take Molly home.
My mom will go crazy for her.

And then she can call you.

Well...

Shh.

Ah, that's the same "shh" sound
Hannah always made.

I never know what it means.

Clarity, is that you?

Uh, hey, Mom.

That voice. It was Gloria.

Hey, did you, um, did you move
that box that had my demos in it?

Didn't touch it.

So, I met a, um...

This, like, a producer that really wants
to hear my music.

Gotta do homework!

Your new home.

Okay, CJ,
you've got nothing to fear.

I'm here to protect you.

Whoa! Cat!

Molly, no!

Molly!

No, no!

No!

- No!
- Great! You love playing chase too.

Stop.

Not my homework!

No, Molly!

Molly, no!

Molly!

No!

No, Molly, no!

Slow down, Molly!

Come here, you silly girl.

There's so much
to chew on under here.

Oh, yeah.
Oh-ho-ho-ho.

That was fun.

What's the next game?

You're a Destructo-Dog.
Yes, you are.

Oh, I love my new bed.

- Where do you sleep?
- Here you go, Molly.

Hilda said you were
mostly house-trained,

so, for now,

I'll just put a towel down here...

- Just in case.
- When you gotta go, you gotta go.

No, Molly, no.

CJ, I need to talk to you.

Changing!

Hello? Why's this door locked? CJ.

Hey, come on.

Just a minute.

Yeah,
don't know this game.

I will give it a try.

What's with all this noise?

Uh, CJ, it looks
like a bomb went off in here.

Um, I've been doing
a little rearranging.

It smells terrible.
Will you at least open a window?

I love your outfit.
Is it new?

Do you love, love, love it?

I have a date tonight.

You're going out!

Ow... How is he?
Is he nice?

Well, CJ,
they always start out nice.

Um, so can you figure out
your... Your dinner tonight?

Again?

Yeah.

I think hiding you might be

a little more difficult
than I thought.

- Ready?
- Whoo!

Ow.

CJ?

Are you ready?

What do I say?

Ask a question
and keep calling back.

Don't laugh. I need
to get into character.

Uh, where did CJ go?

Wish me luck.

Oh, hi, CJ.

- Hello?
- Hello, is this Hilda?

This is Gloria Mitchell.

Hello. I've been
expecting your call.

Wonderful, wonderful.

My daughter, Clarity,
brought home that sweet dog today.

We just adore her to pieces.

Clarity, honey, I'm telling
Hilda how much we love Molly.

Oh, uh, can you hold on for a sec?

Right on time, Trent.

Hello, this is Trent.

How much kibble
should I feed Rocky?

Half a cup. I gotta go.

As I was saying, we'd love to be
her forever home.

Oh, uh, can you hold on for a sec?

Good work, Trent.

Is that half a cup US
or half a cup imperial?

It's just half a cup.

Maybe I should do it
by weight.

You can do it
however you want.

I gotta go.

I'm sorry for all of these...

And, right now,
I'm looking out

at our ginormously huge,
grassy backyard,

and Molly and Clarity
are rolling all around.

Oh, dear. Um, can you excuse me?

I forgot to tell you,
I gave Rocky a middle name.

I'm really busy
at the moment.

Cliff. Get it? Rocky Cliff.
Pretty funny, right?

Can I call you later
about this?

Don't call me too late
because I have school tomorrow,

and I need to go to bed early.

Sounds like
a wonderful situation.

I'm so glad it worked out.

Well, then I'll leave you alone.
And thank you.

- Well?
- We did it!

That was amazing.
I've never done anything bad before.

Thank you, thank you,
thank you!

I can make noise too.

Whoo! Let's go.
Come on, Rocky.

- High five.
- I love you, girl.

Whoo! We did it!

I knew my purpose
was to protect CJ,

but, since she was safe,

I thought it was okay
to play with Rocky.

Rocky destroyed
all the slippers in the house.

My dad's doing
a lot of swearing in Mandarin.

I had to take Molly out
twice last night.

She still peed on my bed.

I can't believe you managed
to hide a crazy puppy

for even one day.

We should train them together.

You guys are going
to puppy school.

- Rocky, come on! No!
- No, Molly, no!

Why are they walking so slow?

Rocky, slow down.

Sit. Sit.

Sit.

Okay, then stand.

Good dog.

No, you have
to be the authority.

Watch and learn.

Lie down.

I'll wait till you come up
with a better game.

You see?

Good girl.

Stay. Wait.

Wait, no, Rocky. Stop!

- Rocky!
- Paw? Paw.

Come on, girl.
Let's go, girl.

- Paw. Come on.
- What is a paw?

Paw. Come on. Let's go.

Maybe this is a paw.

Good girl. Good, good girl.

- I can do paw! I can do paw!
- Yes, yes, yes, it's a deal.

It's a deal.

You have graduated
puppy school right now.

- Rocky, come back. Rocky!
- Good, good girl. Good girl.

Rocky!

You can stay here
while I'm at school.

No barking, okay?

Don't really understand
what's happening.

Can't wait to show this to CJ.

Uh, is that
supposed to be food?

Maybe if I wasn't
going commando...

Where'd that great smell
come from?

I love it.

CJ?

Clarity?
Did you hear that?

I think it came
from the basement.

I'll check.

I'm here, CJ!
You remembered!

Shh.

Molly, shh.

Again
with the "shh."

What does "shh" mean?

Nothing here, Mom.

I think it was next door.

Belly rub please.

Gonna have to tell her
about you, Molly.

Mom, there's something
I wanna tell you.

Hey, so if you, uh,
order a pizza for dinner,

do not eat
the whole thing, okay?

Life is harder
when you're chubby.

Plus, you claim you wanna be a singer.
Gotta look good.

It felt like CJ got hit.

But I didn't see what hit her.

What'd you wanna tell me?

Just wanted to know
what time you'll be home.

Not too late.

Mommy!

Mommy, I'm scared.

Wait for me, CJ.

CJ was afraid.

I was afraid.

Maybe if I protect her,
she'll protect me.

I used to hate it
when my mom stayed out late.

But now I have you.

I don't have to
be scared anymore.

I know you'll protect me.

Make that noise stop.

I'm really, really scared.

Knock, knock.

Hey, morning, sweetie.

Morning.

Um, so I thought
it might be nice

if I cooked you
some breakfast.

What? Do you even know
how to do that?

You silly.
Of course, I do.

I need to get outside.
I need to go.

What... What is that?

This is, um...

- This is...
- Hi.

You must be Clarity.
I'm Paul.

And who's that little fellow?

Little gal.
Her name's Molly.

Are we getting up?
I seriously need to go.

Aw, what a sweetie.

- I love dogs.
- Yeah?

Me and my mom do, too.

I have to take Molly
out for a walk,

but we'll be back
for breakfast.

Okay.

Um...

- I'll go start those mimosas.
- Great.

We're in trouble, Molly.

Yes, we are.

You went behind my back,
and you got a dog?

You're not allowed to have a dog.
You understand me?

Gloria sounded angry.
Smelled pretty strong, too.

Hey, babe, you want
another mimosa?

Oh, yeah,
that'd be lovely.

I'm keeping her.

Maybe if she plays, she will feel happy.

I'm keeping Molly.

I am your mother.
I am the boss.

And you're not
supposed to leave

an 11-year-old
alone at night,

almost every night,
during terrifying thunderstorms.

I'm sure my teacher would be
very interested in a mother who did that.

So, are you threatening me?

I get scared.

Molly protects me.
You can't make me get rid of her.

See?

She's my best friend.
And I'll do everything for her.

You didn't even know she was here.

That dog needs a bath.

You're staying with me.
You get to stay with me.

Good girl, CJ.
You're a good girl.

Yep. You do need a bath.

Yep.

Look, Molly,
my charm bracelet.

It has my two favorite things
in the whole world.

You and my guitar.

Thank you for showing me
whatever that is.

Uh, I will be going
back to sleep now.

I'll be here with you

Near or far

The end or the start

Good old Trent,
always on time.

Good old Rocky,
always on time.

Hey.

Hey.

First, I'm gonna pull the stick.
Then you pull the stick.

Then I'll pull the stick.

Look at our babies.

Yep. All grown up.

Hey, should we start
saving for college?

Molly and I aren't
exactly on the college track, Trent.

I'm actually thinking
about dropping out of school.

If I told my parents
I was dropping out of high school,

they would
spontaneously combust.

Yeah, well, as soon as I can,
I'm getting out of here.

I'm gonna move
to New York City.

And how are you gonna do that?

There was this insurance settlement
when my dad died.

I finally get the money
when I'm 18,

so I'm gonna use it
to move to New York,

make a demo, and get my career
started as a musician.

You hardly ever
talk about your dad.

I can tell when CJ needs me.

Hold on, Rocky. I'll be right back.

Hey, Molly.
Wanna sit? Come on.

Hey.

Yeah, well...

Died right before I was born,

so I don't really know
anything about him.

Well, except Gloria said his parents
tried to steal that money from me

when I was a baby.

So I don't know.

Maybe she's drunk
half the time,

but she did do
one good thing for me.

Sometimes, CJ squeezed me
so tight I could barely breathe.

I loved it.

Hey.

Are you gonna buy something?
'Cause if you are, I gotta go back in.

Oh. Guess I was.

I'm not, like,
in a hurry or anything though.

Let me guess.

A bag of pretzels
and a Sprite.

Okay, I guess
I'm pretty predictable.

Shane.

CJ.

That's Molly.

I'm getting a bad feeling
about this person.

What's it doing?
Getting ready to pee on me?

Cool it, Molly.

Sorry.

So you like motorcycles?

- Kind of.
- Yeah?

- Cool it, Molly.
- You're supposed to throw the ball.

You pick it up and throw it,
and then I get it,

and you throw it again.

No thanks, doggy.

He doesn't understand.
He's not too smart.

You want this, Molly?
You wanna go get it?

Go get it!

Rocky! Trent!

Ooh, a quick sniff
of Rocky's butt

told me everything
was going great for Rocky.

Come on, let's go.

Hey, Trent.

- Thanks.
- Yeah.

This is Shane.

Uh, hey.

Hey.

Hmm, both of them
wanna be in CJ's pack.

Hey, what's up?
Uh, you didn't return my call.

Oh, right, sorry.
I've been kind of busy.

Who is this, your mother?

They weren't growling
at each other on the outside.

But they were still growling.

Check it out.
Talent show. Next week.

This is a chance for you to actually
perform in front of an audience.

- Wow.
- I bet you'd be great.

Oh, come on. You haven't
heard me sing in years.

I know, but you have to perform
in front of people someday.

Plus, the winner gets $500.

Yeah, do it, CJ.

I mean, you can sing a song
between the magician and the mime.

Does look kind of lame, Trent.

Thanks though.

Let's hit it.

Maybe I'll see you later?

Well, what about Rocky?

We were gonna roll
in some stuff together.

Molly, come on.

You want something that tastes good,
you should try these socks.

Hey.

We should stop
by my buddy's place.

He's having
a couple people over.

Well, I should probably get home.
I've got school tomorrow.

Oh, come on, CJ.
Don't kill the fun.

Huh?

Okay.

I did not wanna be here.
Neither did CJ.

I thought you said only a couple
of people were gonna be here.

Mmm...

Did I say that?

Shane, I'm really not into this.
Can you take me home?

In a sec. Relax.
Have some beer.

- Put the drink down, man.
- Go, go, go.

This is not a good place.
I do not like it here. We need to leave.

- This is messed up.
- Move it. I'm coming.

Other people are leaving.
I think we should go, too.

Wait. What's gonna
happen to my dog?

Wait, you can't make me
leave my dog.

You can't make me
leave my dog. Molly!

CJ, why are you
getting in that car?

If you leave, I can't protect you.

CJ!

I didn't wanna be here.
I wanted to be with CJ.

Where was she?

- Trent!
- Hey, girl.

I need to find CJ.

I don't smell her. Keep going.
I'll bark if I smell her.

There she is! Stop!
I said stop!

Molly.

CJ, I'm back! I found you.

Hey.

Oh, hey.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Trent got that other guy
out of the pack.

I'm guessing
he finally bit him.

I was such an idiot.

Hey, it happens.

You never make bad choices.

I'm too afraid of my parents.

At least you don't have to do 100 hours
of community service.

Wait. So you're gonna be
one of those people

picking up trash
on the side of the highway?

No, actually,
I got assigned to this program

that trains dogs
to sniff cancer.

Cancer?

Yeah. It sounds pretty wacky,

but at least I get to
take Molly with me.

So, we're a pilot program,
which is very exciting,

because we've been
getting amazing results.

Wait. So you're telling me

these dogs know people have cancer
before doctors do?

We see the world.
Dogs smell it.

Their sense of smell is 100,000 times
as acute as ours.

So we're working on trying to get
the dogs to recognize the difference

between cancer samples
and benign samples.

If we successfully
scent-train a dog,

it can make the difference
between life and death.

Wait. So I get to scent-train a dog?
That's so cool.

I love the enthusiasm.
But first...

I hope this isn't
CJ's purpose.

We went every day. CJ was happy,
and that made me happy.

Why is he getting treats?
I want treats, too.

Good dog, Bode.

Okay. If Bode gets one more treat,
and I get nothing,

I'm gonna go nuts.

Good boy.

Good boy, Bode.

Mmm, that smell.
Is that why Bode gets treats?

Maybe if I...

- Did you see that?
- Yeah.

Good girl!

That's it! If you smell the smell,
you get a treat!

CJ, do you mind
if I start training Molly, too?

Good girl, Molly.

Quiet!

I know that smell.

Hi, Gloria.

It's good to see you.

Ethan and Hannah! Finally!

Well, hello!

Who is this?

- Hello! Who are you?
- Ethan! It's me, Bailey!

- I'm a girl now.
- This is a surprise.

Gloria.

We sent a note saying
we're going to be in the area,

and we hoped
it'd be okay to stop by.

Did you? Okay.
Must've missed that.

Look, Ethan! Look!

We were cleaning out the barn,
and we found a lot of Henry's things.

- We thought that...
- Yes.

We thought that you and CJ
might like to see it.

Is anyone seeing
what I'm doing here?

Yeah, you could've
sent whatever that is.

Well, we wanted to see you.
We want to see CJ.

Well, we don't wanna see you,

- which is why I have not responded...
- Ethan, it's me, Bailey!

- ...to any of your letters or your calls.
- Can't you tell it's me?

Is that you, Boss Dog?

It's me! It's me! It's me!

Quiet!

Gloria. We just wanna see CJ.

What makes you think
you can just show up like this?

Okay, I'm not
a little kid anymore.

So you can't...
You can't push me around.

We want to see our granddaughter,
just to see how she's doing.

Ooh, I'll go tell CJ
you're here.

She doesn't wanna see you.

Is she home?

That is none
of your business!

You're not
gonna believe it.

Ethan and Hannah are here.

And they smell
better than ever.

- Come! Come now!
- What you doing?

Let's go. Follow me.

We have
a whole life without you.

- I really don't appreciate this ambush.
- "Ambush"?

Oh, Gloria, we're family.

Gloria. Can't we
just start again? Please.

Let's just start over.

Gloria. Gloria! Please.

You forgot Ethan and Hannah.

Don't look at me like that.

All these years later,
they still wanna take her from me.

Gloria!

Let them in.
It's Ethan and Hannah.

I'll just leave it here.

I know that's you, Boss Dog.

I love it when
he calls me "Boss Dog."

You just keep
looking after CJ, okay?

No, don't leave! CJ's here!

Come on, Molly. Come on.

Okay.

Good job, Molly.

Andi says you've really taken
to scent-training.

Food, please.

Yo.

Leave us alone.

- What are you doing here?
- You don't answer my calls.

Yeah, because I don't
wanna talk to you, Shane.

Come on, CJ. You're not still mad
about the party?

- Don't walk away from me!
- No, get off! Shane!

- What are you doing?
- I thought you were cooler than this.

Shane!

She bit me!

Go away. CJ doesn't like you.

I'm gonna kill
that stupid dog!

I don't like you either.

Richard, if that's you,
why don't you come get your junk?

Oh, it's you.

Richard left.

Shane just attacked me.

Gloria smelled
stronger than usual.

Well...

Looks like today's
not a good day for us and men.

Right. You're drunk.

Yeah.

Adults are allowed
to get drunk,

when they get dumped
by their boyfriend

who borrowed money
they will never see again.

I just told you that some guy
attacked me, Mom.

It was really scary.
Do you even care?

Well, what did you do?
Did you... Did you lead him on?

Did you provoke him
or something?

I cannot believe
you just said that.

You are literally
the worst mother in the world.

No, that was my mother.

I'm leaving.

I don't wanna be here anymore.

I'm taking my money,
and I'm moving out.

Ooh, what money?

The money
from Dad's settlement.

Oh, Clarity,
that money's gone.

What?

How do you think we have
a house? And a car?

But that money was for me.

Well, it's been for you, CJ!
I am alone!

How do you expect me to...

- To do this on my own?
- Wait.

So, all of the...
All of the travel, Mom,

the closet
full of designer clothes,

the cases of wine,

That...

That's all been
my inheritance?

I deserve nice things, too.

Mom, that money was the only thing
I ever got from my dad.

That was the only thing
that made me feel like,

somewhere in the world,

there might actually be
someone looking out for me.

But I guess that was
really stupid, wasn't it?

You cannot take the car.

Why not? I paid for it.

I never knew there could be
such a thing as a sad car ride.

What?

Shane?

Uh, leave me alone!

What are you doing?

All I wanted to do
was stay on my seat,

but the car
kept pushing me off.

Sorry, Molly.

Oh, God.

What the...

The car's gone crazy!

Molly.

Oh!
The car finally stopped.

Are you okay, CJ?

Molly.

Molly.

Oh, I love that sound.

It means CJ's nearby.

Molly.

Molly.

Molly.

But now I know
I'm leaving her.

I don't want to.

- Molly.
- But I have no choice.

Molly.

Molly.

- I remembered baby CJ on the farm...
- No, Molly.

...and how much I wanted
to protect her.

How much she needed me.

Herjourney is not over.

Come on.

CJ was so sad.
She still needs me.

CJ, wherever you are,
I promise, I'll find you.

But first, I need to get
a few things out of the way.

I need to play.
I need to wrestle.

I need to bite a few faces.
I need to bark.

I need to play with a blanket.
I need to bite some ears.

And, unfortunately,
I still have to take baths.

I knew myjourney
was with CJ,

but I couldn't
find her scent anywhere.

Come on, Big Dog. Yeah.

Now I lived with Joe.

- Ready for another day?
- He was good to me.

He lived in a house
made out of snacks.

Just for you.

Okay, bon appétit.

Oh! These are my favorite.

- Enjoy it.
- Oh, I forgot about these.

No, these are
definitely my favorite.

Oh, no ice cream
for you.

How about a Slim Jim? Yeah.

That's the one.

We have a winner. My favorite.

Then, one day, I heard something
that reminded me of...

Huh?

That sound.

- Morning.
- Hi.

Huh?

Could it be?

Maybe one more sniff,
just to be sure.

How's your day going?

Um, pretty good, thanks.

That'll be $4.50.

I don't believe it.

It's my CJ! I found you!

Big Dog!

Wow, he never gets up
for anything.

"Big Dog"? How'd you ever
come up with that name?

- Just sort of came to me.
- Hey there, Big Dog.

- Hey. How you doing?
- Now I can go with you!

Where are we going?

Must smell a dog on you.

Oh, I don't have a dog.

Used to, though.
Her name was Molly.

She was the best.

Oh, she knows it's me.
We're finally back together.

Oh.

Oh, paw. That is so sweet.

I, um... I trained
my dog to shake.

He's never done that before.

Really?

Huh.

Well, it's very nice
to meet you, Big Dog.

Um... Oh, can I also
get a lottery scratch card?

- So where you headed?
- Uh, New York City.

I hope Joe tells her about how much
I love meat sticks.

You got a job or something?

Well, I'm a singer-songwriter.

Trying to be a
singer-songwriter, so...

Oh, no way! Fifty bucks.

Ah, congratulations.

Wow, I've never won anything
before in my life.

You must be a lucky dog.

And I hope Joe tells her about
the crunchy, salty things, too.

Oh, they're so good.

Thank you.

Okay. See you.

- Travel safe.
- I wished I could thank Joe

for taking such good care
of me all this time.

I hoped he knew
how grateful I was.

Oh, no, no.
You have to stay here, Big Dog.

CJ, no. I'm supposed
to come with you.

CJ. Wait.
What are you doing?

No! No, you can't leave me!

I told Ethan
I would protect you!

Big Dog!

CJ, come back!
I need to help you!

Big Dog!

Please, take me with you.

No! No! I can't lose you.
I will never stop. I will never stop!

Slow... Slow down.

I'm sorry. I just can't
run any faster.

Come on, Big Dog.

Big Dog!

Come on. Come on!

I will never stop.

I will never stop
looking for you.

Day after day passed,
but no CJ.

I don't know why
she left me behind.

I waited so long.

I got older and older.

And when it was time, I knew.

I guess I wasn't gonna
be with CJ in this life.

I had a good life with Joe.

But it was really hard knowing
CJ was out there without me.

I knew ourjourney
wasn't over.

I came back small.

But I was not gonna
let that stop me.

I've been born
enough times now

to know that
when you're hungry,

you have got to fight for it.

So, apparently, my growing phase was over.
I was gonna remain small.

Cat-sized.

If I was gonna find CJ,
I was gonna need a new strategy.

Look at you. You're so cute.

Hey! I already
belong to somebody.

We're really looking
for an older dog.

I have the perfect dog
for you.

Sorry about that.
Nothing personal.

Oh, how sweet.

This little cutie
would fit in my purse.

Nope!

Keep moving.

Good going, old guy.

Oh, she's gonna be tricky.

Wait. Wait.

I know that sound.

Could it be?

I think it might be!

What if it is?

I'm sorry, Max, but I'm gonna have
to take you back to the shelter.

I have to find out.

I don't wanna
have to do this, but...

Ow!

- Sorry, you've been great.
- Oh, Max!

- Thanks for all the food and water.
- Hey, Max! Max!

Whoa, this place is huge.

Out of my way!
Dog coming through.

Sorry about that!

Being small does have
some advantages.

Wow, that smells good.
Maybe just one lick.

No. Forget that. I cannot
let her get away this time!

I can't see a thing.

I need to get
to higher ground.

Oh, yeah!
There she is!

Afternoon.

My legs are short but fast.
I'm not gonna lose you this time.

Hey!

CJ! My CJ!

- I found you!
- Hello. What you doing?

Oh, no. No, no, come here.
Come here, come here.

How do you get this thing off?

Here I am.
Here to protect you.

Still delicious.

Where did you come from?

Hey.

Think there was a jailbreak.

Is that Max?

Oh, Max.

You are such a love dog, Max.

You're the only person
in the world he hasn't tried to bite.

It's like he chose you.

I can't. I live
with my boyfriend,

and he already has a dog. I...

I really can't bring home
another one.

That's too bad.

- He's scheduled to be put down tomorrow.
- Wait. Are you serious?

We do our best to foster out
to no-kill shelters, but they're full.

We're full.

Max is taking a place
that could go to another dog.

- Oh, but you can't...
- Rescue's like a river.

It has to keep flowing,
or it backs up.

Duke.

Ah-ah-ah, sit.

Okay.

Sit, Max.

Yeah. You sit,
and you stay that way.

Get me?

This is Max. You two are gonna be
very good friends.

Like she said,
I'm the boss now.

There's a high and a low
And an in-between

CJ was always
making sounds for us.

I liked them.

I promise
I'm always within reach

Hello, CJ? I'm back.

Oh, hi, Duke.

Who is this man, and why is he
in our house, CJ?

Be nice.

I know.
I missed you too.

- Hey.
- Hey.

How was your trip?

- It was good. How are you?
- Uh, yeah, you're crushing me.

Good. Yeah.

So that's the dog
you told me about.

- Yep.
- Keep your distance.

I'm protecting CJ now.

Great personality.

He just needs a minute
to warm up.

And Duke loves
having a playmate.

I guess playing your music for two dogs is
better than one dog, right?

Right.
They're a good audience.

Too bad dogs
don't buy records.

Look, I'm gonna play for people
when I'm ready. All right?

Every day, CJ walked
a huge group of dogs.

They knew I was in charge.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Uh, so Ringo had a great time.
He, um, peed twice.

- Oh, great.
- Thank you.

- Thank you. Bye.
- Okay, see you.

This box has smells like, uh...

Max, where are you going?

- Hey!
- Sorry.

- Uh, this way!
- Max!

Max, come back!

Max!

Max!

- Trent!
- CJ?

- Trent?
- Where's Rocky?

- Wow, what are you...
- What are you...

This is so weird.
My dog just dragged me here.

But I don't know...

- Do you live here?
- Yeah, I just moved in.

- Who's this little guy?
- Oh, um...

That's Max. Be careful.
He's not very friendly.

Oh, Trent,
I'm so glad to see you.

Where's Rocky?

He seems
pretty friendly to me.

I can't believe
you're in New York.

Never saw you
as a big city guy.

Well, I was in London
for a while.

And when the opportunity
came up here,

I thought to myself,
"Why not give it a try?"

My nose told me
Rocky was gone. Poor Trent.

A person can't be happy
without a dog.

Well, it's a pretty
nice place.

You must be doing okay.

I wonder what the snack
situation is here.

Sorry.

You know me.
I follow the rules.

I always admired how you didn't
care about the rules.

Oh, yeah, well, Gloria didn't exactly
teach me to follow rules.

- How is your mom?
- Oh, I don't know.

I haven't spoken
to her in years.

Mmm.

How's the music career?

Good. Yeah. I mean, it's hard.

Plus, I'm walking
all these dogs now

just to pay the bills.
So it's...

That's a relief.

For a second,
I thought you'd become

one of those out-of-control
dog ladies.

CJ was happy. And it made her laugh.
She never laughs with Barry.

All right, well,
I should probably get going.

Yeah.

Hey, uh, my girlfriend
is coming in next weekend.

Maybe we could do a double date
with you and your boyfriend?

Yeah, sure, we'd love that.

- Okay.
- Okay.

CJ seemed sad
after we left Trent.

I could tell she wanted
Trent in our pack. So did I.

Which meant Barry had to go.

Hey. Hey, hey, hey! CJ!

Barry's.

CJ!

I've been holding this in
all day, and it's go time.

CJ!

Yes!

Just saying, if I have to bite this guy
to get rid of him,

I absolutely will.

Adopting a dog
was such a stupid decision.

Why are you saying that?

Look at you, CJ.
Your career is nowhere.

Okay, thanks, Barry.

I don't need any help
feeling bad about myself.

Yeah, well, I just don't think
you have what it takes.

I don't wanna be here anymore.

Where are you gonna go?

You gave up your apartment.
You have no money.

Yeah, well, I will
figure something out.

- Don't walk away from me.
- Don't touch me.

We don't like you.

Duke?

Hey.

Thanks.

Amanda comes back
next Tuesday.

She said
it would be okay.

We're not allowed dogs here.
So keep him on the down-low.

Okay. Thanks.

So I got rid of Barry,
but Trent didn't join our pack.

It didn't make any sense.

It was just me and CJ,
and we moved around a lot.

We went on a lot of walks.

Every couple of days,
we were sleeping somewhere new.

But we never saw Trent.
Even when we knew where he was.

I stayed close to CJ,
but she still seemed sad.

You wanna
take a cab?

- Yeah, there's a few coming.
- Max, come on. Max.

- Trent!
- Max.

CJ, what's wrong with you?
Don't you smell Trent?

Thank you.

Okay, make sure you get that cab
over there. I don't wanna be late.

- I got it. I got it.
- Max, shh. Please, shh.

I finally get it.

- "Shh" means bark louder.
- Max, shh.

Okay, will do, CJ.

Max!

Trent! We're right here.

Here I come.
Open your arms and catch me.

- Max?
- I said catch me!

You know this dog?

Hey, why don't you put that
fancy cat down and pick me up?

- Hey.
- Oh, hey, CJ.

- Sorry.
- Hi.

This is the old friend
I was telling you about.

- Uh, Liesl, CJ. CJ, Liesl.
- Oh. Hi.

Hi. Nice to meet you.

Um, so I left you a bunch of messages.
You didn't get back.

Is everything okay?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, sorry, um...

Everything's great.
Really great actually.

I, um... I was gonna, um...

I was...

C... CJ?

Sorry.

This smells way better than
the place we slept last night.

- Yeah.
- Oh, wow.

- Place looks great.
- Yeah.

Ah, you can stay right here
in the guest bedroom,

until you find your own place.

I'm sorry. I don't mean
to be such a pain.

You're not being a pain.

I just need a little time
to get back on my feet.

Um, Trent?

Can I speak with you
for a second?

Okay.

Hmm? I guess that dog
doesn't know how to walk.

Feel like maybe
I'm getting you into trouble.

It's fine. Liesl can be
a little jealous.

Hey, is it okay if we sit down?
I'm exhausted.

Yeah, sure.
You okay?

Yeah. Yeah, just, uh...

Think I'm working too much.

Excuse me.

So Trent tells me that you're
a professional dog-walker.

What happened to you?

Oh, yeah.
Just on the side.

Um, music is what
I really care about.

Oh, so you have a band?

Nope. No band.
Just me and my guitar.

Ooh, where do you play?

Uh, well, I haven't
exactly booked a gig yet.

Kind of just been
working on my songs.

I wanted to have a whole set
before I started playing in public.

So, I mean,
music is on the side,

and dog-walking
is your real job then, right?

Liesl didn't pee on anything,

but she was definitely
marking her territory.

Ready for food here.
Let's go. Put the bowl down.

Okay. Okay.

Ah!

Sit.

Good boy.

Oh, this is delicious.
Best meal ever.

Whoa, slow down, Max.

I'm done.

Trent!

Tough day?

Not too bad.

Think I just need some sleep.

Yeah. I bet.

Hey, little guy.

I literally just had
the best meal of my life.

Good to have Trent
back in the pack.

Can I say something
you may not wanna hear?

Sure.

I think you have stage fright.

Wait. That smell.

I...

Okay, fine. Maybe I have
a little stage fright.

But... Well, I don't know.

Maybe my songs
just aren't ready yet.

Well...

I remember that smell
from when I was Molly.

How will you know whether they're ready
if you don't play them? Right?

Oh.

That's a cute little trick.

I smelled the smell.
Now I get a treat.

You see that?

Oh...

Trent, how long have you been
wiped out like this?

"Wiped out"?

Um...

Actually, since I moved back
from London.

I guess I'm...
I'm just jet-lagged.

Do you think maybe
you should see a doctor?

Just to make sure
everything's okay?

You're changing the subject
from your musical career.

I am gonna
think about that, okay?

Will you just please
go see a doctor?

Okay. Fine.

Excuse me. You owe me a treat.

Gloria, stop calling me.

There's a girl

Come in.

Hey, uh, Liesl's here.

Could you come out?
I wanna tell you both something.

Sure.

And they're sure it's cancer?

They're sure.

What did they tell you
about treatment options?

Well, the good news is
they caught it early.

But I'll have to do chemo.

Do you have to go
to the hospital?

I hate hospitals. They terrify me.
You know that.

Then definitely
don't get cancer.

Why are you laughing?

It was...
It was just a joke.

Do you really think
that this is the time to joke?

I need some air.

It'll be okay.

- So...
- And what did she say?

She said she's not up
for being a nurse.

Wow.

That is pretty cold.

Ugh, I'm sorry.

Maybe it's for the better.

She'd probably find some way
of making it about herself anyway.

Hey.

You know
you're gonna beat this.

Right?

Definitely.

I think.

I just...
I still can't believe this.

Well, I'm not going anywhere.

Thanks, CJ.

Everything's gonna be fine.

Hmm.

They remind me of Ethan and Hannah
when they were young.

Ooh, do they wanna
lick each other?

Hey, I've gotta go
to the hospital, Max.

When I get back,
we'll go on a long walk, okay?

Trent went away,
and then CJ was gone a lot.

Stay, Max.

Why say "walk"
if you don't mean "walk"?

Trent came home,
and he slept a lot.

He slept even more than me.

Thank you.

And I'd been biting at this itch
for a long time.

Boy, you're really chewing that spot,
aren't you?

Maybe I should
take you to the vet.

Okay.

So?

It's really good.

Really?

No, it's horrible.

Okay, I'm gonna try it. Uh...

Ugh, it's really bad.

Trent wore clothes
for outside,

- even though he always stayed inside.
- It's healthy.

- He looked ridiculous.
- It tastes healthy.

Oh, I'm sorry, Max.

As soon as your leg heals,
we'll take it off. Okay?

I don't know, Max.

Every time I think about playing in public,
my heart just starts racing.

I don't know.
Maybe I don't have what it takes.

I wish this bed
was made out of bacon.

Accidentally gave
someone your key?

Does life get
any better than this?

- ...out of some guy's navel?
- You saw that?

I guessed!

It's the doctor.

Hi, Dr. Robbins.

Mmm-hmm.

Okay, so what does that mean?

Okay. Thank you. Will do.

What did she say?

She, she... She said
my scans are clean.

I'm cancer-free.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Oh, my God.

I don't know why we're happy,
but it makes me happy.

Come here. Come here.

- Right, right.
- Trent came on our walks again.

It was so great
having him back.

Gloria keeps texting me.

She's coming to New York.

You gonna go see her?

I don't know.
It's been years, you know?

Plus, she makes me feel
terrible about myself.

She still has
too much power over you.

If you see her up close, you'll just
realize she's just another person.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

You just got me through cancer.
You can face Gloria.

Hey, now I can be
here for you.

Come on, lick faces.

Trent...

Do it. You both want to.

You're a really good friend.

Are they ever going to...

I smell fresh poop!

- I didn't understand why CJ was trembling.
- Thank you.

It wasn't windy or cold.

Hi.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Please, sit down.

I'm sorry I had
to bring him with me.

Oh, of course.
That's okay.

Oh, you're so beautiful.

- Some water?
- Thank you.

So you've been
living with Trent?

- Is that... Are you two... Are you dating?
- Oh.

Well, he always had
such a thing for you.

No, we're, um...
We're just friends.

And what is going on
with your music?

Uh, just writing songs,

and, you know, thinking about
maybe making a demo.

It's gonna be scary to get up
in front of an audience.

Yeah. Kind of wondering
if I'm cut out for it.

Well, if you don't try,
you'll never know.

So what are you doing here,
Gloria?

Just so you know,
I don't have any money.

No, I don't want
money from you.

I felt a different feeling
from Gloria.

Not angry. Sad.

- Max, she hates dogs.
- Oh, God.

Can I hold him?

Yeah.

Hi.

Hey. Wanna come sit with me?

If anybody ever needed a dog,
it was Gloria.

She needed love.

It must be nice to have

something that loves you
like this, without conditions,

because you probably
really needed that.

Yeah, I did.

So, Clarity, I...

I have been sober for,
um, nine months and 13 days.

And I was not a good mother.

And I am so sorry, Clarity.

And, if you'd let me,

I'd really like to be
a part of your life.

I really wanna trust you,
Gloria.

I just don't know if I can.

So it's your father's
birthday next week.

I don't know if you knew that.

Um...

And you are about to turn
the age that he was when he died,

which is so crazy.

Um...

I have some, uh,
letters from him

that he wrote to me
when I was pregnant

with you.

And your grandparents
gave them to me and I...

I think you should have them.

I was so angry when he died,
and scared.

And I was just lost.

But, um, I realize now it is so important
that you know who he was

because he was...

I don't wanna
read these, Gloria.

Oh, yes, you do.

Just trust me
on that one thing.

And, um, I know
it may take time.

I do hope that someday
you can forgive me.

Turns out Gloria's a pretty good
ear-scratcher, too.

Maybe there is hope
for her, after all.

The papers smelled
like Hannah's boy.

They made me think of Ethan
and Hannah and the farm.

Gloria, I miss you.

I think I'm gonna
get the Motorola job.

I saw an apartment
next to a park

that would be perfect
for the baby.

I know we're both scared,
but I finally have some clarity.

We're so young,
and we don't know what we're doing.

But we have each other,
and we will figure it out together.

We can spend the summer with my mom
and Ethan at the farm in Michigan.

I know my mom will be
super helpful to us.

She is so excited
to be a grandmother.

I'll be here with you

I cannot wait
to meet our little girl.

How do you raise a child
to be strong and bold?

To believe in herself?

She'll have a good start
with you as her mom.

I have so many dreams
for her and for us.

Can't believe I'm taking
my mother's advice...

But, if I don't try it,
I'll never know, will I, Max?

Will I?

Sometimes the best thing
you can do is just be there,

even if your ribs get a little bit crushed,
and it makes you wanna go.

All the times

I doubted myself

All the stories
that I could tell

Wouldn't stand

In front of a crowd

Or say my thoughts too loud

But there's a fire
I'm feeling

That burns me up

For once in my life

I'm ready to jump

I'm falling, fearless

No other way to do this

'Cause even when
I'm crashing down

There is higher ground

I'm falling, fearless

No other way to do this

'Cause even if
I'm crashing down

I'm in this moment now

I'm falling, fearless

You're so great.

Oh, my God.

- Hey.
- Hey.

You did it.

I'm so proud of you.

Hey, don't you feel good?

I, uh... I feel relieved.

That song about your grandparents' farm
really got to me.

Have you even been there?

Just when I was a baby.
But I don't know.

Reading my dad's letters,
I kind of felt like I remembered it.

I've been trying to think
of a way to repay you and Max.

Tonight just gave me
this crazy idea.

Would you be up
for a road trip?

I love car rides,
but why am I tied down?

I really would like
to put my head out the window.

He loves car rides.

These smells! Could it be?

Can't believe I said yes to this.

I think it's best to say yes whenever possible.
Don't you think?

Okay.

Wow, I wonder what a city dog's
gonna make of this place.

The farm! I'm back!

Should we check it out?

I smell horse-dogs!

I smell Hannah!
I smell my boy!

Hello.

Where'd you come from?

Ethan, it's me!
It's Bailey, Bailey, Bailey.

Ethan,
what's going on out here?

Look at this.

Aren't you a cutie pie?

Who is your owner?

Hi.

I think you might be
my Grandma Hannah.

I am.

CJ?

- Hi.
- Hi.

God, I feel
like I know this place.

Of course, you do.

It's home.

CJ? You grew up.

Is that...
Is that your dog?

- Oh, yeah, that's, um... This is Max.
- Good.

Oh, be careful.
He's not very friendly.

Oh, yeah,
you're a killer.

Oh, wow. Okay.

- Yeah, yeah.
- Wow.

I did what you told me,
Ethan. It was not easy.

It took a long time, but I did it.
I brought CJ home!

Oh...

Oh...

Hello.

Oh, hi.

Nice to meet you.

- Oh, my gosh.
- That's beautiful. Look at that.

Look at this one.

Oh, wow. Look at that.

So how long have you two
known each other?

- Oh, um...
- Um...

- Best friends since we were ten years old.
- Mmm-hmm.

- Well...
- So you're not, uh...

Oh, no. No. We're, um...
We're just friends.

Mmm-hmm.

Gosh, I look so happy.

Why did my mother
keep me away from you?

Oh...

When your father died,
Gloria was so young.

And I think she thought
that the world was against her.

And she couldn't see
that we were on her side.

- Right?
- Mmm.

I'm gonna get
some more photo albums.

- Here. Take Bailey.
- Oh, his name's Max.

Oh.

Okay.

Max.

You know,
his real name is Bailey.

Ain't that right, Boss Dog?

That's right.

I love when he calls me
Boss Dog.

The only thing
I can't figure

- is how Boss Dog can be such a little guy.
- Mmm-hmm.

Wait. So my dog
is actually your dog?

He's on permanent loan.

To you.

Okay.

Bailey was Ethan's dog
when he was a kid.

And he always said that Bailey
came back as a different dog

and brought us back together
after many years apart.

And now he thinks
that Max is Bailey.

And Bailey's
brought you to us.

She thinks I lost my marbles.

Oh, well...

Yeah, you do.

- I know what I'm talking about on this one.
- Mmm-hmm. Sure.

You don't believe me either,
CJ, do you?

There's a lot you don't know
about that dog.

I could show you.

Come on, Bailey.

Coming.

Okay.

It been a while
since I've done this.

I used to do it standing up.

All right, you...
Okay, you ready?

Let's do it.
Just like we used to.

Huh? Okay.

One.

Two.

Three.

Go!

When did this thing
get so big?

Pretty great, right?

Wha...

- Only...
- Only now the...

The football weighs
more than he does.

Wait.

How did...
I don't know how or what.

When Bailey died, I told him
to take care of you,

to protect you.

And I believe
that's what he did.

Ain't that right, Boss Dog?

It's kind of weird
when you finally get it, right?

Trent?

Trent?

He's over there! I gotta go, Ethan!
You told me to protect her!

Trent. Trent!

What is it?
What's wrong?

Nothing.

Nothing's wrong.

Max was Molly, Trent.

That's how he knew
you were sick.

What?

Max was Molly.

And before Molly,
he was Ethan's dog, Bailey.

And I think he was also Big Dog,
who gave me its paw

and helped me win $50.

Okay.

Max brought us
together, Trent.

He found me,
and then he found you.

And then he saved your life.

All so we could be together.

Oh, come on. Would you just
lick faces already?

Is it possible?

No.
No, it's utterly impossible.

But I guess it's true.

I love you, Trent.

I've always loved you.

I've loved you forever.

Finally!

Hey.

Thank you, Max.

And Molly.

And Bailey. And Big Dog.

Those are all me.

Yeah.

I did
what Ethan asked.

I watched after CJ
so that she would have a good life

with a good pack.

Wow.

It looks great.

Hey, you wanna hear a song
I wrote about you, Max?

I never got tired
of hearing CJ say my name.

I had a lot of lives.
All different.

Sometimes I was big.
And sometimes I was small.

Oh, wow...

Here's Mama.

Hey, how you doing, huh?
How you doing?

- Kiss.
- Hey, there.

Let's go see who that is.

So many ups and downs.

Even Gloria came around
once in a while.

Yes.

I trained her to play.

Hey!

Yeah.

That's the puppy.

Oh.

So many goodbyes.

He'd been with me so many times
when I had to leave.

Now I got to be with him.

So many people.

One more time.

Through it all,
I let the people I loved

know just how much
I loved them.

How's he doing?

He's just been
lying there all day.

You're a good boy, Max.

The best.

Where would we be without you?

You're a good dog, Molly Max.

You're
such a good dog.

Lying there
with my girl holding me,

I can feel it happening again.

I knew I was saying goodbye,
but I wasn't sad.

Near or far

The end or the start

I'll be with you

I'll be with you

I knew this to be true.

My name was Bailey

and Molly and Big Dog and Max.

I was a good dog. A Boss Dog.

I knew that loving people
was my ultimate purpose.

And that being here, now,
loving them forever,

was my reward.

Hello, Boss Dog.

Come on, buddy.

Come on. Come on, buddy.

Hey. Oh.

All right, you ready?
You ready? Go!

Way to go, Boss Dog!
