An emergency blimp delivery?

[gasps] Yip, get down from there.

Are there any other pilots you could call?

I'm looking after two pups today.

[barking]

Okay. I'll be there as soon as I can.

Spike? Are you home?

Hi, Mom.
I think Spike went to the moon today.

Or maybe it was the mall.

Great. I have to make
an emergency blimp delivery,

but I need somebody to take Yip
and Cousin Rhonda to the playground.

-I can do it.
-Where's Cheddar Biscuit?

-At circus camp. I can do it.
-Where are--

Gilber's at a stamp-collecting meeting,
Paw's at work,

and Grandma and Grandpaw are in
the garage, but I can do it.

Tag, taking care of puppies
is a lot of responsibility.

Plus, these two pups are an awful pawful.

-It's a job for a big dog.
-I am a big dog.

I scoop my own kibble,
I clean my own bowl, I wash my own collar,

and I drive my own scooter, which I built.

Hmm. Maybe you are ready
for a big dog job.

All right. Take this and these.

I just need you to get them
to the playground.

-I'll meet you there as soon as I'm done.
-I'm on it.

Be safe. Be alert.
And don't let them out of your--

Wait, where did they go?

-[barking]
-Right here. I've got this, Mom.

[barking]

[grunts] Get back here, Yip!

-[barking]
-Drop it, Rhonda!

[chuckles] How nice to see three puppies
playing in the garage.

Two puppies, Grandpaw.
And one big dog. That's me.

So, no playing.

I've gotta get these pups to the park.

Wow. All by yourself? I'm impressed.

Yeah. It's no big deal for a big d--
[screams]

[horn honks]

A little advice
about taking care of puppies.

Never blink.

Got it, Grandma. No blinking.

Oops! No more blinking.

No more blinking.

That was my last blink.

[engine revving]

Go, Big Dog, Go!

-You think she can handle it?
-I know I couldn't.

I'm tired just watching them.

Playground, here we come!
You all right back there, Yip?

-[yips]
-How about you, Rhonda?

-[barks]
-That sounds like a yes and a yes!

Well, I'll get you there
in two wags of a tail.

[engine revving]

Wait, I can't go fast.
I need to drive nice and slow.

Like a big dog.

Ooh, how about some music?

[yipping]

-[rock music plays]
-[howling]

Ooh, not that music.

-[upbeat music plays]
-[barking]

Oh, I love this song.

[music continues]

I mean, I used to. When I was a puppy.

[barking]

Yep, that's Paw's doorbell store.

But we're not going there,
we're going to the playground.

-[whimpers]
-[clicks]

Just as soon as I make a nice,
responsible stop.

[chuckles] I am nailing this.

-Hello.
-Hello!

Do you like my hat?
And wanna play some baseball?

No time for playing, Lady Lydia.
I've gotta get these pups to the park.

-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.

No, I was saying goodbye to the puppies,
because they're running away.

-Ahh!
-[barking]

-Wait for me!
-Goodbye!

That one was for you.

[bell rings]

Puppies! Puppies?

-[horn honks]
-[doorbell rings]

-There you pups are.
-[yipping]

-[grunting]
-[thud]

-[puppies barking]
-[chuckles]

Tag, they remind me
of when you were a puppy.

You loved ringing the doorbells.
Go ahead, ring one.

-For old times' sake.
-Okay!

[sighs] No. I'm not a puppy anymore, Paw.

Mm. [chuckles]

-Plus, I've got some pups to catch.
-[horns honking]

-[grunts]
-[thud]

-[horn honks]
-[both laugh]

Paw's got you.
Want some help with these two?

No, thanks. I've got it all under control.

I just need a way to keep them
from running off. [grunts]

Well, as I always say,
there's a doorbell for every problem.

-[bell dings]
-No.

-[bell dings]
-No, that-- that's not gonna work.

-[squeaking]
-Hmm, not it.

[doorbell plays "Mary Had a Little Lamb"]

-You like that one?
-[barks]

See? There's a doorbell for every problem.

-Huh. I do always say that.
-Sometimes, twice a day.

[barking along
to "Mary Had a Little Lamb"]

Lamb doorbell, not... [bleating] bad.
Get it, kids?

[bleating] Bad? 'Cause it's a lamb?
[chuckles]

[both groan]

I'm hilarious!

Let's see how we're doin'.

The park is up ahead.

Everything is going great.

Could go greater with balloons.

Ooh, I do love balloons.

No. No balloons for me.
I'm not a puppy.

-But they are.
-[yipping]

-[barking]
-Have fun back there, pups.

Ol' Tag will get you to the park
in no time.

-Heya, Tag.
-Hi, Manhole Dog. What you up to?

Eh, not much.
Just watchin' some flying puppies.

Huh, that sounds nice.

Wait, flying puppies? [screams]

[gasps] Flying puppies!

I have to get up there.

It's a good thing they're heading
towards the Town Ladder.

Huh. I forgot we had a Town Ladder.
Thanks, Manhole Dog.

Nice chattin' with you, Tag.

[panting]

-[panting, sighs]
-[puppies barking]

I'm coming, pups.

-[sighs]
-[barking, yipping]

[bird chirping]

-[yipping]
-Gotcha.

-Oh, oh! Ah!
-[barking]

[slurping]

[gasps] Mom! Oh, I can't let her see us.

Hide, pups. Hide!

[gasps] Balloons. That's pretty.

[sighs] Phew! Close one.

Hey, there's the park!

Prepare for landing.

-Now, how do we get down?
-[birds chirping]

Hey, Green Birds. A little help, please?

[chirps]

[balloons popping]

Whoo-hoo!

[chirps]

Not yet. Not yet.

Okay, now!

-Thanks, guys!
-[chirping]

Yes! Playground up ahead.

Come on, grab my paws, and don't let go.

Nothing is gonna stop us now.

Excuse me? I'm looking for the tennis
courts. You know where they are?

Yep, that way.

Oh, no! Tennis ba*ls!

[barking, yipping]

Yip!

Rhonda!

Sit! Stay! [stutters] Roll over!

-[grunts]
-[thud]

[sighs] I can't get them
to the playground.

Maybe I'm not such a big dog after all.

Oh! Look at 'em bounce!

Manhole Dog, do you like my bat?

Yeah, it goes nicely with your hat.

And it's perfect for chasing tennis ba*ls.
Let's play.

[pants]

-[grunts]
-Ooh, nice catch!

I got it!

Whoa! Big dogs chasing tennis ba*ls?

I guess big dogs can play.

Well, if they can play, so can I.

Time to out-puppy the puppies.

-[whimpering]
-[pants]

[barking]

[both squeal]

Oh, Yip and Rhonda...

To the playground.

Then, you can run around
as much as you want.

[barking]

-[squealing]
-[laughs]

-Hi, Ma!
-Hi, Tag. Wow!

Good job getting those puppies
to the playground.

It was no big deal.

I guess you're a big dog after all.

[barking, yipping]

But I've still got some puppy in me!
[chuckles]

Yeah. Me, too. [laughs]

[all laughing]

[panting]

[yips]

[whimpers]

Huh?

-[chomps]
-[creaking]

-[whines]
-[teeth crunch]

[Tag] "The Case of the Slobbery."

[sniffing] Hmm.

[sniffs] Hmm.

-[sniffing] Hmm.
-[sniffs] Hmm.

Scooch, why do we keep saying, "Hmm?"

Because that's what the famous detective,
Go-tective Snout, does

when she finds a clue. [gasps]

And I just spotted another clue
to the mystery

of who had the melting ice cream cone.

-Hmm.
-Hmm.

A-ha! Manhole Dog, it was you!

It was me, I admit it, I did it. [sobs]

Wait, what did I do?

Your ice cream cone melted.
It's no big deal.

Oh, what a relief.

And that's the problem, Scooch.
It's no big deal.

But you said we'd find a big mystery.

-[rumbling]
-Maybe they know of one.

Oh. Hi, Grandma and Grandpaw.
We're looking for a big mystery.

Know of anything?

Sorry, Tag, off to do a repair job.

Have fun!

-Hmm...
-Sorry, Scooch.

I think this detective thing
is too slow for me.

-Can we play something else?
-Sure, Tag.

And we don't need to bother
with the cool helmets

and the walkie-talkies
and the exciting chases.

Exactly, so let's-- Wait, what?

That's what makes Go-tective Snout
a Go-tective.

She buzzes around town
in her Go-tective Mobile,

solving Go-tective cases... Go-tectively.

-I guess we won't be needing these.
-[grunts] Scooch!

Why didn't you mention
all this exciting Go stuff before?

Come in, Go-tective Scooch,
this is Go-tective Tag.

-Don't forget to say, "Over."
-Over what?

Go-tective Snout says "over"
when she's done talking through a walkie.

Oh! Got it.

I-I mean, got it. Over.

Now, we just need a big case to solve.

-In our Go-tective mobile!
-That'll work.

Go, Go-tectives, go!

Come in, Go-tective Scooch.
Can you hear me?

I repeat, can you hear me? Over.

Um, I'm right next to you.

I know, but it's more Go-tective-y
when we speak through the radio.

Any sign of a big case? Over.

No, but as Go-tective Snout always says,

"A good detective keeps their ears up

and their eyes wide open."

-How long do we have to do this?
-Until we find a big case, I guess.

Hey, Tag.
Did you hear the Rover Coaster is missing?

Total bummer.

Missing Rover Coaster? Scooch!

That's the best ride
at the Amusement Bark!

-So?
-So, this could be our big case to solve.

Oh, yeah. Well, as Go-tective Snout
always says, "Let's sniff it out."

Eyes open, ears up, and nose sniffing.

[Scooch] Wait a minute,
the Rover Coaster is right there.

Hmm.

The tracks are here,
but the cars are missing.

There's supposed to be a big bone car
on the tracks, but it's gone!

Go-tective Scooch, it's a robbery.

I don't know, Tag.

Just because the coaster is missing
doesn't mean someone stole it.

Scooch, I've been a detective
for ten minutes.

I think I know a robbery when I see one.

First step, look for pawprints.

[gasps] They're everywhere!

'Cause there's a lot of dogs here.
But wait.

[sniffs]

Dog slobber!

Must be from the robber!

Which means it's not just a robbery.
It's a slobbery!

The Coaster!

Go-tective Scooch, follow that coaster.
Over.

I agree. Over!

[sighs] We lost it.

[gasps] But look! More slobber.

-Right next to...
-Frank and Beans!

[chuckles] I like saying our names.

Spill the beans, Beans,
and be frank with me, Frank.

You two are the slobber robbers!

What? First of all, we never slobber.

-[chomps, gulps]
-Fine, we slobber.

-But we definitely didn't rob anything.
-Yeah!

Oh, yeah? Well, I think you're hiding
the Rover Coaster under that blanket.

-Tag, it seems a little small for--
-A-ha!

-A teddy bear?
-Purply Bear!

A new friend for Pinkie Bear. [chuckles]

Frank won him for me
in that Tail Toss game.

-[bell dings]
-Shh! Sweet dreams, Purply Bear,

-Prince of Purpleness.
-[smacks kiss]

Come on, Scooch,
the Rover Coaster can't be far.

The Rover Coaster?

Oh, yeah, I just saw it go down Waggy Way.

Go-tective Scooch,
we're headed to Waggy Way. Over.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Aw. Can't sleep, Purply Bear?

Do what I do. Count sheepdogs.

One... [snores]

I don't see the coaster.

Go-tective Scooch,
activating bone-oculars.

[Scooch] Coaster spotted.

Heading north into the Hedge Maze.
And we're gonna crash right into it!

You're looking through the bone-oculars.

Oh! Right. I knew that.

[Tag] Hold on tight!

Oops, that was the wrong way.

Never mind. It was the right way.

-Whoa!
-Here we go!

Ah! Yah!

[Tag] Just kidding!
Now, we're almost there!

[Scooch] Whoa! Whoa!

As Go-tective Snout always says,

"You gotta have the stomach
for detective work."

-But Tag, look!
-[gasps]

[Tag] Slobber!

Shh...

A-ha!

[both] Lady Lydia?

-What are you doing?
-Watering the hedge.

Do you like my hat?

No. Because it means this is water,
and not slobber.

Uh, me? Slobber? Oh!
[stutters] I would never!

Sorry for the trouble, ma'am. Just trying
to track down the Rover Coaster.

Rover Coaster?
I saw it heading toward Ruff Ruff Road.

Uh, Lady Lydia, you're watering Scooch.

-Oh! Oh, oh! I'm terribly sorry.
-That's okay.

-[sputters]
-Thanks, Lady Lydia!

Goodbye!

Scooch, we keep hitting dead ends.

This is the hardest case
I've ever had to solve.

Tag, it's the only case
you've ever had to solve.

Yeah, and it's a tough one.

Tag, stop!

Look! More slobber!

-Quick! Bury the bone!
-Bone?

The Rover Coaster is shaped like a bone.

Slobber, giant hole.

The slobber robber is burying
the Rover Coaster in this hole!

Who's down there?

Hello!

-Little Dog?
-Hey. What's up?

And Big Dog?

[gasps] How could you?
Dig up the bone!

-We...
-Would...

Love to!

[squeaks]

Wait. That's not a giant bone.

-'Cause I'm a little dog.
-She likes little bones.

-Then why the big hole?
-'Cause I'm a big dog.

He likes big holes.

Well, I guess that isn't slobber
on the grass.

Then what is it?

Ah, paw sweat. Makes sense.

Go-tective Scooch, this is Go-tective Tag.

We may never find that Rover Coaster.
Over and out.

-Um, Tag?
-[rattling]

[gasps] Never mind! We gotta go.

Thanks, Little Dog. Thanks, Big Dog!

They found our bone.
We gotta bury it again.

Yep, where they'll never find it.

We're not letting it get away this time.

[gasps]

Go-tective Scooch!

[gasps] The slobber robber's
in the garage?

[drill whirring, clanging]

-Now what?
-Well, what would Go-tective Snout do?

She'd probably rub her chin and say,
"Hmm" a lot until she had an idea.

-Worth a shot. Hmm. Hmm.
-Hmm. Hmm.

-I'm getting nothing.
-So, what would she do next?

-[rattling]
-[both gasp]

She'd chase this place.

Ooh, I was hoping you'd say that.

[both] Go, Go-tectives, Go!

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo!

Oh, my hat!

It's heading straight
for the Amusement Bark!

Back to the scene of the slobbery?
Fascinating!

We've done it, Go-tective Scooch.
We've cornered the culprits.

-Grandma and Grandpaw?
-Oh, hi, there, Tag, Scooch.

You... you stole the Rover Coaster?

Stole it?

Uh, we brought it
to the garage to fix it.

That's the repair job we told you about.

[both] Oh!

-Yeah. That checks out.
-But why all the slobber?

Nachos. They always make
your Grandpaw slobber.

They do not! [chomps]

Well, slobbery solved,
because there was no slobbery.

-Just slobber.
-And the Rover Coaster's back.

Wanna go for a ride?

Hmm.

Hmm.

Are you saying, "Hmm"
because you're a Go-tective,

or are you stalling
because you're nervous?

Little of both.

Go-tective Scooch, I think
there's only one thing left to do.

Yep. Ride the Rover. Over.

-Hey! Whoa!
-Whoo-hoo!

-I didn't know this was a water ride!
-It's not!

Whoo-hoo! Whoa!

-[all cheering]
-[camera shutter clicks]
