[Laughter]

[Woof]

Ahh! Hello, my friend.

Oh, hi, manny.

What are you
doing up so early?

[Barking]

Is she here yet?

Ahh, so that'’s why
you'’re here.

Cleo'’s coming back
from her vacation today.

I can'’t wait
to see her again.

[Laughing]

I remember a time
when you were

Not so happy
to see cleo, t-bone.

Me, too.

I remember
the very first time
cleo came to town.

Did you walk emily
to school, clifford?

Yup.

Great, so we'’ll finish
our walk through town

Then go to the library.

Hi!

[Woof]
[arf arf]

Then we'’ll go over
and play on the dunes.

[Arf arf]

Then a quick jump
to the ferry dock.

Wanna play tag
when we get to
the dunes today?

I don'’t know.
Tag'’s getting kind of boring.

First you'’re it,
then I'’m it,

Then you'’re it.

Clifford?

Who is that?

I'’ve never
seen her before.

[Arf arf arf]

Whoa!

Sounds like
she wants to play.

Come on, clifford.

Let'’s go to the library.

Count all the way to .

And no fair peeking.

......

[Laughing]

...

...

...

...

...

......

!

Now where could he
be hiding?

Cleo: there he is!

[Gasps]

[Clifford laughs]

Steak and stew,
I see you!

No fair.
She told you!

Sorry. I thought he was
really looking for you.

It'’s ok.
I'’m clifford,

And this is t-bone.

Whoa,

You sure are big,
clifford.

My name'’s cleo.

You know,
one of your bows
fell off, cleo.

Great. Now if I
could just get rid
of the other one.

Come on, clifford.

Let'’s go to the dunes.

T-bone and I
play tag on the dunes.

Wanna come?

Huh?

Sure, but I was
kinda wanting to go

To that rocky point place.

We always
go to the dunes.

Well, ok.
Let'’s go to the dunes.

We could go
to rocky point, t-bone.

We haven'’t played there
in a long time.

Well, yeah.
I guess we could.

Well, come on, then.
Let'’s go!

Cleo: come on, t.

T?

I hear there'’s a lot
of caves up here.

I'’ll bet they'’re filled
with all kinds of treasure.

You really think so?

Have I ever
steered you wrong?

Well, we just met.

How'’re you doing, t?

[Breathing heavily]
great. Thanks.

We can slow down
a little.

What for?

I was...wondering...

Why you guys...
Are going so slow.

Whoa.

There'’s got to be
lots of great stuff
in there.

Looks like lots
of dark to me.

We don'’t have
to go in, t-bone.

Cleo: oh, wow.
This is great!

Um, come on, clifford.

See any treasure,
yet, guys?

T-bone:
I can'’t see anything.

Cleo: wait!
I see a spider!

Whoa!

Come on,
let'’s try another cave.

I don'’t know, cleo.

Come on.
It'’ll be fun,
right, t?

Uh...oh....well...

Sure, but it looks
like it might rain.

T-bone'’s right.

We better go home.

Well, ok. If you say so.

Hi, t-bone.

Hiya, clifford.

Uh, you alone?

Yeah. Why?

No reason.

Did you walk emily
to school this morning?

Yup.

Great, then
we'’re off to town.

Cleo: clifford,
t-bone.

Hi, guys.

Hey, cleo.

Wanna play
hide and seek today?

Sure! We'’re going
to town first.

Then we can go play
on the library lawn.

Sounds good to me.

Uh, you know what?

I forgot i--i was
gonna stay home today

And, uh, spend some time
with my human.

Doesn'’t sheriff lewis
go to work?

I think
it'’s great that t can

Spend some time
with his human.

They always seem
so busy.

Well, ok.

Have fun, t-bone.

See ya, t!

[Whines]

Steak and stew,
I see you!

Hey! How'’d you
find me so fast?

It'’s a gift.
My turn to hide.

Ready or not,
here I come.

Both:
bowser bites,

What a treat.

That is what
I like to eat.

Tummy yummies
taste so great.

You eat one,
and I'’ll eat !

[Faster]
bowser bites,
what a treat.

That is what
I like to eat.

Tummy yummies
taste so great.

You eat one,
and I'’ll eat !

Bye!
Thanks for coming!

Hi, cleo.

Hi, clifford.

[Barking]

Thanks, cleo.

My itch is gone.

Hey, how are you,
t-bone?

Oh, I'’m ok, manny.

Who'’s that
playing with clifford?

Cleo.
She just moved here.

Clifford
really likes her.

But you don'’t?

Not really.
She calls me t.

No one'’s ever
called me that before.

She wants
to play with us
all the time.

So why don'’t you like her?

Well, I don'’t like her

Because clifford
likes her...a lot,

And if he starts
to like her too much,

He might stop liking me.

Hmm. Sharing a friend
can be hard,

But clifford
isn'’t the only one

Getting a new friend,
you know.

Cleo'’s your new friend, too.

You think so?

Of course!

She even gave you
a special nickname, t.

That'’s right.

She did.

And I don'’t think
you need to worry

About sharing clifford.

He'’s big enough
for both of you.

That'’s for sure.

Something tells me
the of you

Are gonna be
really terrific friends.

Tag. You'’re it.

Tag. You'’re it.

Tag. You'’re it.

Tag. You'’re it.

Again?

This isn'’t so much fun
with just .

I wish t-bone was here.

T-bone: hey, guys!

Who wants to play tag?

Hey, I'’m glad
you'’re here, t.

You don'’t mind me
calling you t, do you?

No, I kinda like it.

Good. Me, too.

Let'’s play.
Not it!

Not it!

Ok, I'’m it!

You better run!

Back here,
big guy!

Whoa-ho!

[Laughing]

Now this is fun!

Here I come!

Whoa!

Manny'’s right.

We'’re gonna be
really terrific friends.

[Ferry horn blows]

She'’s here! She'’s here!

Cleo!

Hey!

Hey, guys.

I really missed you.

We missed you,
too, cleo.

We sure did.

Come on. Let'’s go
to the library
and play tag.

Not it!

Not it!

I'’m it,
so you better run!

Emily: clifford!

It'’s story time!

You want to hear
a speckle story,

Don'’t you?
[Woof woof]

I thought so.
He'’s your favorite.

Today'’s story is speckle
and the little big snack.

One day speckle
headed for the kitchen

To make a snack.

He started with big slices
of pumpernickel bread

And some cheese...

Then he added
some lettuce and tomatoes

And pickles and more cheese

And green olives
and black olives
and red olives

And everything else
he could find in
the refrigerator

Until...

Speckle had created
the biggest sandwich

In the whole wide world.

A huge, colossal, enormous,

Way-too-big-to-get-
in-your-mouth kind of sandwich.

Speckle tried
every which way

To eat his
beautiful sandwich

Until he finally realized
that the best way

To enjoy such a big snack

Was to share it.

So speckle
invited his friends over,

And together they shared
the best big sandwich

In the whole wide world.

The end.

That was a great story.

Isn'’t reading fun?

[Woof]

[Laughs]

[Barking]

Over here!

Go on!

[Barking]

Oh, oh, whoa, oh!

Nose it here, t.

Here!

[Barking]

Oh, silly, noisy game.

This game will be
twice as much fun

On my new playground.yeah!

New playground?

Cleo: it has jumps,
tunnels, tires,

A slide and a seesaw!

You guys will be

The very first
to play on it.

Really? Clifford and I
will be the first?!

When?

It'’ll be ready tomorrow.

A new playground?

Wow! I'’ve just
got to play on it.

[Barking]

Why are you playing

On this old, hard
sidewalk, cleo?

Huh?

Why don'’t you play

On my beautiful,
soft lawn today?

Well, ok.

Thanks.

What a nose.

Way to go, cleo.

You know,

You are really good
at this game.

Thanks.

It'’d be even more fun

To play it
on a big playground,

Don'’t you think?

What'’s cleo doing?

Um, I guess she'’s, um...

Playing with mac?

I can'’t wait to see
cleo'’s new playground.

Yeah, we'’re gonna be
the very first
to ever play on it.

Cleo promised.

Whoa! Look at this!

[Gasps]

This is great!
Whoa!

Where'’s cleo?

[Cleo barking]

[Cleo laughing]

[Machiavelli barks]

Whoa!
Oof!

[Gasps]

T-bone, clifford.
Glad you'’re here.

Oh, yes.
I couldn'’t be happier.

Cleo, I thought
clifford and I were
gonna be the first

To play
on your playground.

Well, mac came over
early this morning,

And he really wanted
to play with me.

Well, come on,
everyone.

Let'’s play.

[Cleo giggling]

T-bone: oh!

Hey!

Unh!

[Grunting]

[Laughing]

[Woof]

Come on the seesaw, cleo!

You are so good
at this game!

Yeah.

Go on!

[All grunting]

[All cheering]

[Barking]

[All laughing]

Huh?

I'’m going
to the tire swing.

Hah!

Oof.

Whoa!

Whoa!

Ha ha!

We'’ll never get
clifford off the ground
without mac'’s help.

Oh, well.

Why do you wanna play
with mac anyway, cleo?

He'’s never wanted
to play with you before.

Well, he does now.
He likes me.

Mac: come on, cleo!
Let'’s swing!

Gotta go.
Mac'’s calling.

[Growling]

Is cleo here yet,
clifford?

Not yet.

I hope she doesn'’t
bring mac.

He'’ll hog
all the good stuff.

Aw, mac'’s not so bad,

And cleo
really likes him.

But does he
really like cleo...

Or does he just
like her playground?

I hope
he likes them both.

Cleo: hey, save some
for us, guys!

Wow!

A tennis shoe!

Unh!

Wanna play
with it, mac?

No. R-really,
thank you.

Wouldn'’t you rather
do something else...

With me, cleo?

Like, uh...

Oh, oh, oh!

How about playing on
your new playground?

[Gnawing sounds]

Not now. The grass is wet.

Everything will get
all dirty and muddy.

Hey, let'’s all play
nose-the-can!

Oh, please, no.

Eh, oh,
how about tag?

You'’re it!
Try and catch me!

T-bone: isn'’t she
supposed to chase

All of us in tag?

[Cleo laughing]

[Mac barking]

Gotcha, you'’re it!

[Panting]

I'’m tired
from all that
running, cleo.

Why don'’t we
just play here
for a while?

But we'’ll get mud
on my brand new stuff.

Well, ok.

If you don'’t wanna play
on the playground,

I'’m going home.

Oh, wait!

I guess it would be ok.

Great! Come on.

Looks like they went
into cleo'’s backyard.

But cleo said
it was all muddy.

[Barking and laughing]

Whoa!

Yeah!

Wow! They got mud
all over her new stuff.

Cleo: hey, guys.

Come on and play.

I don'’t think
mac wants to play

With clifford
and me, cleo.

What do you mean?

He only wants to play

With the dog
with the playground.

That'’s not fair,
t-bone.

Mac likes me
and I like him.

And I think you guys
would like him, too,

If you gave him
a chance.

He'’s really changed,
you know?

He'’s changed '’cause
he wants to play
on your playground.

You'’re just jealous.

Jealous?!

That'’s right,
but you'’re just
gonna have to get

Used to sharing me,
t-bone, because
I am very popular.

Cleo'’s playing with mac
again today, clifford.

I know.

They really like playing
on her playground together.

It seems like she never
plays with us anymore.

She just likes getting
all that attention from mac.

It doesn'’t mean
she doesn'’t like us.

Yeah. I guess
you'’re right.

I just really miss
playing with her.

Me, too.

Let'’s go see if
she wants to play.

Catch me
if you can, cleo!

Don'’t worry. I will.

Whoa--ow!

Wha--oof!

Come on, cleo.
Chase me!

Ok.

I--oh! Ow,
I hurt my foot.

Is it bad?

Kinda.

So, can you play anymore?

I don'’t think I better.

Oh...well, huh.
I better go.

You'’re gonna...go?

Well, yeah.

Come get me
when you'’re better.

Then we can play together
on your playground some more.

Yeah, ok.

Hey, cleo.

Hiya, cleo.

Wanna play
on the tire?

I can'’t.

I hurt my foot.

You did?

Are you ok?

I'’m ok, but I can'’t play
on the playground today.

Then, let'’s
do something else.

You sure you'’re ok?

I'’m ok.
I just can'’t run.

Emily read me
a great story last night.

Want me to tell it?

Sure. I love emily
elizabeth'’s stories.

Wait. First let me
go get that bone I found.

We can chew on it
while we'’re listening.

...and the little girl
said she wanted to keep
the dog forever and ever.

And the dog smiled,
'’cause he'’d found
a home at last. The end.

Oh, great story,
clifford.

Thanks, cleo.

How'’s your foot feeling?

My foot'’s ok, but
I'’m kind of embarrassed.

Clifford: why?

T-bone was right.

Mac only wanted
to play with me

So he could
use my playground.

He wasn'’t
really my friend.

Well, we are, cleo.

Forever and ever.

Thanks, t-bone.

How about another
story, clifford?

Ok.
This one is about

Really, really,
really good friends.

Wahoo! Whee!

Playing fair makes playing
fun for everyone.

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

Is play fair.

Hurry, t-bone!
My turn is next.

Ok, cleo.

I'’m next. I'’m next.
I'’m next,

And then it'’s mac'’s turn.

Ok, cleo. Your turn.

Oh, boy!

Hey!

Whoa! Whoo!

Yeah!

That wasn'’t fair.

You'’re right.

We'’re supposed
to take turns.

That'’s the fair way
to play.

Oops. Sorry.

It'’s your turn,
cleo.

Thanks, mac.

You'’re welcome.

Playing fair
makes playing fun.

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

Is play fair.
