[Laughter]

[Woof]

Emily: the great race.

[Blowing]

Clifford!

You cannot move
in freeze tag,
no matter what.

That'’s the rule.

Oops.

Gotcha!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Freeze!

Aah!

Ugh! Oh!

What do you think
you'’re doing? Ugh!

Can'’t you even say
you'’re sorry?

He can'’t talk,

'’Cause we'’re playing
freeze tag, mac.

Want to play?

Ugh. With t-bone?

Well, that wouldn'’t
be fair.

I mean,
me with my speed

Against the slowest dog
on the island?

[Grunts]

Hey,
that'’s not nice.

Ha ha ha ha ha!
Are you kidding?

Not only
is t-bone fast,

He can jump so high,

And he'’s really,
really strong.

Mmm.

Yeah, right.
Whatever.

T-bone
is a pretty
fast runner.

He'’s strong,
too.

Oh, really?

You think he could
outrun, outjump,
outstrong me?

With both paws
behind his back.

Really? Then how about
a little contest--

Me against t-bone,

Winner take all?

Ok, winner take all.

All what?

If I lose, I give t-bone
my gorgeous collar.

If he loses...

I take his collar.

Deal.

Deal.

This'’ll be great,
huh, t-bone?

He won'’t talk,
'’cause you didn'’t
unfreeze him, cleo.

You know t-bone.

He never breaks
the rules.

Heh. Ok, t-bone.
I officially
unfreeze you.

Why'’d you say
I'’d race him, cleo?

What?

I don'’t want to race mac,

Especially for
my brand-new collar.

Why didn'’t
you tell me?

'’Cause you cannot move
in freeze tag, no matter what.

Those are the rules.

Oh, yeah.
Well, don'’t worry.

You'’re gonna do
great in this race.

Are you sure?

Have I ever
steered you wrong?

Lots of times.

Huh?

Well, not this time,
'’cause clifford and I

Are gonna help you
get ready for this race.

Ok, t-bone, the race'’ll
start at the dunes,

Go through town,
then you'’ll jump
over the bleakmans'’ garden,

Run all the way
to the beach,

Pull a wagon
across the sand...

Then make a final
dash across...

Both: the finish line!

Wow! Wow, what are we
waiting for?

Let'’s start training!

Clifford:
faster, t-bone!

That'’s the way.
You'’re lookin'’ strong!

[Both grunting]

Go, t-bone!

Just say to yourself,
"I can do it!

I can do it!"

T-bone: I can do it!

A little higher!

Little higher!

[Boing]

[Boing]

Yes!

Now how do I
get down?

Unh!

Unh!

[Grr]

Remember, t-bone,

"I can do it!"

I can do it!

Hmm?

[Ruff ruff ruff]

Ok, now you try.

Huh?

I can do it!

All right!yay, t-bone!

Unh!

Unh!

Come on, t-bone!

I can do it!

I can do it!

You did it!

You'’re ready,
t-bone.

Just remember...

Both: you can do it!

Cleo: ok. You ready
for the race, t-bone?

Yep. I really
think I can do it.

Sure you can.

So, t-bone,
ready to back out?

No, thanks.
I'’m ready to race.

Ok! On your mark!

Good luck, mac.

Uh, yeah, right.

Clifford:
get set!

Both: go!

Wahoo!

Cleo: go, t-bone!

Unh!

Wahoo!

Go, t-bone!

Ha ho ho ho ho!

I can do it!

[Gasps]

What in blue blazes...

Oh!

T-bone,
what are you up to?

[Whines]
[mac panting]

[Ruff ruff ruff]
huh?

[Ruff ruff ruff]

Whoa!

[Ruff ruff]

Whoa!

If I never see
another dog again...

[Bow wow wow]

[Woof woof]

It'’ll be too soon.

Now we'’ll see
who'’s the winner here.

Unh!

Come on, t-bone!you can do it!

Unh!

[Grunting]

Kiss your collar
good-bye!

I can do it.
I can do it.

What a race!

Unbelievable.

I won! I won!

Here he comes!

Cleo: yay, t-bone!

Whoo! Yay!yay! Yay! Yay!

Yeah! Whoo!yay! Yay! Yay!

He didn'’t win! I did!

Did you see me?

Did you see
how fast I was going?

Sure did.
You almost won!

Mac almost didn'’t
stand a chance.

I mean, I wasn'’t
sure I could do it,

But I really almost won!

You were awesome, t!

Hooray for t!

T-bone'’s the best!

I don'’t get it.

What are you
so happy about?

I'’m the one who won,
you know.

You'’re right, mac.
It was a good race,

But you won.

Go ahead, mac.

You won my collar

Fair and square.

Yeah, uh,
fair and square.

Uh.

Oh, keep it.
I don'’t even like it.

It'’s ok, mac.

You ran a fair race,
and I lost.

You earned it.

No, I didn'’t earn it.

I cheated, ok?

I didn'’t win it
fair and square.

I could have,
but I didn'’t,

So I want you
to keep your collar, ok?

Next time,
I'’ll really b*at ya!

Poor mac.
He feels really awful
'’cause he cheated.

Yeah, but you didn'’t.

You were awesome,
t-bone.

Thanks. I did my best.

Cleo:
you really tried.

And that'’s what made it
a really great race.

Emily: clifford!

It'’s story time!

You want to hear
a speckle story,

Don'’t you?
[Woof woof]

Heh heh! I thought so.

He'’s your favorite.

Today'’s story is
speckle and the old wagon.

One day when speckle
and his friends
were playing,

Speckle saw something
behind a tree.

They gathered sponges
and buckets of soapy water

And went to work.

Now it was time
to paint the wagon.

Ravi wanted
to paint it purple,

But luna wanted pea green.

Reba'’s favorite color
was blue,

And darnell
liked bright red.

[Arguing]

Speckle wanted
everyone to be happy.

So together they painted it
all the colors of the rainbow.

Then off they went
down the grassy hill

In their wonderful
rainbow wagon.

[Laughing]

The end.

That was a great story.

Isn'’t reading fun?

[Ruff]

Heh heh!

Emily: tummy trouble.

Emily: ok, clifford. Sit.

Good boy.

He sure loves
his bowser bites,
doesn'’t he?

He could eat '’em
all day.

But today we'’re doing
tricks for treats, clifford.

Let'’s try...down.

Ha ha! Good boy.

Good morning, emily!

Good morning,
mrs. Bleakman.

Want to see clifford
do a trick?

Oh, no.
No, thank you, dear.

He'’s a very
cool dog, you know.

Yes, well,
he'’s a very big dog, anyway.

I just wanted
to let you know

That mr. B and I
are painting
our fence today.

That'’s right,
and we don'’t
want a repeat

Of last year'’s
fence-painting incident,
now, do we?

We'’ll be careful,
mr. Bleakman.

You stay far away
from that fence today,
ok, boy?

[Woof]

She couldn'’t have
gotten a guinea pig,
oh, no.

Ok, clifford.
Let'’s see.

How about, uh,
roll over.

Emily, charley,
we gotta go.

We'’re gonna be late
for soccer.

Coming, mom!

Gotta go, clifford.

See you later!

Oh, no! I didn'’t
give clifford his treat!

You'’ll have to do it
later, honey.

We'’re late.

Uh-uh.

I'’ll give you your treat
when I get home, clifford!

Do you think
he'’s ok, cleo?

I don'’t know.
He hasn'’t moved
since we got here.

Maybe we should
get emily.

Emily'’s gone,
remember?

We saw her leave
with charley.

[Gasps]
emily'’s gone?

But she was supposed
to give me a bowser bite

When I finished
my trick.

No problem,
big guy.

I'’ll get it.

[Panting]

Think you should?

You did your trick,
right?

Yeah.

So you get a treat!

Emily'’d give it
to you herself
if she were here.

That'’s true.

If it'’d make you
feel better,

T-bone and I'’ll
share it with you.

Yeah! Mm-hmm,
mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

Here'’s some
for t-bone...

Some for me...
[Gulps]

And some for you.

There.

Now everyone
is happy.

Wait, you guys didn'’t
do any special trick.

Emily was giving me treats
for doing tricks today.

Ok. T-bone,
do a special trick.

Whoa!

Now, that
was special.

Here, t.

Good throw, cleo.

It was good,
wasn'’t it?

A throw that good
definitely
deserves a treat.

It was pretty great,

But you'’re gonna
get sick eatin'’
all those bowser bites.

[Gulps]
ah!

Heh.
Thanks for worrying
about me, clifford.

That'’s very special
of you.

Special enough
for a treat!

Hey, watch this!

[Grr]

Whoa! Whoa!

I'’m dizzy.

Good one, t-bone.

And another
great toss from me.

Hey, watch me!

That'’s great,
big guy.

Watch out for the fence,
clifford!

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

Oh, no!

Uh-oh.

This cannot be good.

I'’m ok.

Huh?

And I didn'’t even
hurt the fence.

This calls
for another round
of bowser bites.

[Gasps]

T-bone: uh-oh.

Gee, clifford,

Maybe it'’s
a little too early
to celebrate.

Huh?

You got somethin'’
on your back.

What? Where?

What is it?
[Gasps]

[Gasps]
oh, no!

Don'’t worry.
I know what to do.

Really?

Have I ever
steered you wrong?

Ok, guys.
Here comes the water!

Is it working?

Well...

I-it will.

In the meantime...

How about
another bowser bite?

Well, that'’s the end
of this barrel.

They'’re all gone?

Don'’t worry.
We'’ve still got
more barrels full.

Uh, is my back
clean yet?

Uh, not quite.

I think you'’re gonna need
to scrub it a little.

You mean like this?

Exactly!

And well worth
a bowser bite, too.

This is a great kind
of bath.

You get clean and dirty

At the same time.

A special bath deserves
a special treat!

My tummy kind of hurts.

Yeah, mine
kind of does, too.

You'’re probably
just hungry.

Here, have some more
bowser bites.

Oh, I'’m so full.

Me, too.
[Hiccup]

Me, three.

[Yawns]

Hey, cleo,
is my back still dirty?

Can'’t tell.
Too much mud.

Look at me.
I'’m clean.

Emily'’ll be so happy.

Uh, I'’m not so sure
about that.

Huh?

We'’ve got to clean this up
before emily gets home.

Unh!

Cleo: oh,
this place is a mess,

But we'’re so full.

Unh!

[Laughter]

Mr. Bleakman!

[Honk honk]

Emily elizabeth!

[Gasps]
the fence! Hurry!

Get away from that fence,
you mammoth-sized mutt!

Is something wrong,
mr. Bleakman?

That big red
fur ball of yours

Is near my fence!

Hmm. He must be doing
something wrong.

Ok, now.

Oh, come on,
horace.

Let'’s just go back in
and finish your nap.

He just can'’t believe

What a good dog
you'’ve been,
huh, clifford?

[Woof]

Sorry I left
in such a hurry
this morning, clifford.

I owe you a treat.

I brought you
a doggy bag
full of goodies

From the soccer picnic.

Eww.

And don'’t worry
about cleo and t-bone.

There'’s plenty
for them, too.

Ugh.
Ugh.

Is something wrong?

Hee hee hee hee.

It looks like they'’ve
had enough goodies for today.

Clifford, did you eat
all those bowser bites?

[Whimpers]

And cleo and t-bone
helped?

Ugh.
[Hiccups]

I can'’t believe it!

I know bowser bites
taste good,

But you guys ate
way too many.

Ugh.

Well, I guess maybe
you'’ve learned
your lesson

About too many treats
the hard way.

Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.

And next time,
I'’ll be sure to put
those treats away

Somewhere
you can'’t reach '’em.

Hee hee.
Hey, everybody makes
mistakes sometimes.

Even the best dog
in the whole wide world,
my clifford.

Mmm.

[Hiccups]

Wow, t-bone!
Your sandcastle
looks great!

It sure does, t.

Thanks. I did
the whole thing
all by myself.

Clifford and I know
that it'’s always important

To be thoughtful
of other people'’s
feelings and ideas.

That'’s why
clifford'’s big idea
for today is respect.

You know what would
make it even better,
though?

A great, big flag!

No, I think it'’s great
just the way it is.

There.
Now it needs a big wall.

No, it doesn'’t.

Cleo, this is
t-bone'’s castle.

Before you
change it,

You should find out
if he wants you to.

I'’m sorry. Next time,
I'’ll remember to ask first.

Sometimes our friends
have thoughts and feelings

That are different
from ours.

When we take the time
to find out about
those differences,

It shows how much we care.

That'’s why clifford'’s
big idea for today

Is respect.
