Blythe: Thanks for helping me clean my scooter, guys.
Russell: No problem, Blythe. We know how much you love your scooter.
Penny Ling: We like it when it looks-
Minka: Pretty! Shiny!
Penny Ling & Minka: [Laugh]
Zoe: Vroom vroom! Oh, the pretend motor noises are working just fine!
Blythe: Hehe! Thanks, Zoe. Good to know.
Vinnie: [Sigh] This is the life, ain't it, Sunil?
Sunil: Oh! Ain't it, indeed! It is the life and plus some, if I might add.
Vinnie: Add away, my friend. Add away. (Coughs up a bubble)
Sunil: [Burps]
Vinnie: Ha! Oh, boy!
Blythe: [Laughs] Oh, Vinnie!
Jasper: Hey, girl!
Blythe: That sounds weird when you say it.
Jasper: It does? Oh, snap!
Blythe: So, what's up?
Sue: We were going to go grab something to eat at the mall. You wanna join us?
Blythe: OMG! It's coming here!
Youngmee, Sue, & Jasper: Huh?
Sue: What's coming here?
Blythe: The International Pet Fashion Expo is coming to Downtown City! Yeah-hoo-hoo-hoo! Yeah! Whoo-hoooooo!
Blythe: It says here that the International Pet Fashion Expo is coming to Downtown City later this year! It's like the biggest pet fashion expo in the whole wide world!
Jasper: It's like the only pet fashion expo in the whole wide world.
Blythe: [Thump] Ha, ha! Boy, if I could do the expo, it'd be a big deal. There's gonna be people there from all over the world. It could totally make me as a pet fashion designer!
Sue: Maybe it's too big of a deal. It says here that the expo is only open to designers with their own shop.
Youngmee: Your own shop? Are you sure you're ready for a big step like that?
Blythe: I'll have to expand my clothing line and open up a shop of my own, but I think I'm ready for it. In fact, I know I'm ready for it. Oh, I've got to start planning! Why don't you guys go on without me? I'll catch up with you later.
Minka: Blythe! Does opening up a shop mean that you're going to leave us again?
Blythe: Again?
Pepper: Yeah, like when you went away to fashion camp.
Blythe: I'm going to need all your help to figure out how to do this, so I'm not going anywhere.
Pets: [Cheering]
Russell: Hmm...
Vinnie: Hmm...
Penny Ling: Hmm...
Pepper: How about this for an idea? You could walk up and down the street and ask people if they want to buy clothes for their pets!
Zoe: Yes! You could use the sidewalk like a big fashion show runway!
Blythe: Eh, I don't think walking around asking people to buy pet fashions will count as having my own shop. Nope, I need a shop and it can't cost much money.
Sunil: Because you do not have much money. I could just conjure up a very nice shop using very powerful magic.
Blythe: Oh, really?
Sunil: Yes, observe. Hoppy-hippy hippy-hoppy, bring to Blythe a little shoppy!
[Zap!]
[Poof!]
Pets: Wow!
Pepper: Nice one, Sunil!
Blythe: Wow, that's really impressive, Sunil! But unfortunately, I think I might need something a bit bigger. [Laugh]
Sunil: [Laugh]
Penny Ling: Uh, what if we made a shop out of bamboo? You know, because it's inexpensive? But we can also put it on wheels so you could get away in case it's attacked by a horde of hungry pandas.
Blythe: That's an interesting idea, Penny Ling, but I'm not sure how practical that would be.
Vinnie: [Gasp] I got it! Okay, we find some land somewhere that no one's using and- and build your own shop! Not out of bamboo, but out of, uh - stay with me here - old cardboard boxes, yes! Discarded truck tires, tinfoil, and- and chewing gum! Now you can't get any cheaper than that! [Beat] Okay, I don't got it.
Blythe: Whoa, wait a minute! Maybe you're onto something!
Vinnie: [Gasp]
Blythe: Penny Ling.
Vinnie: [Sigh]
Penny Ling: I am?
Blythe: Sometimes the shopkeepers at the mall use something called a kiosk. It's basically a shop on wheels. Maybe I could talk Mrs. Twombly into clearing a little more space so I can leave it right here in the shop. Now all I have to do is find a kiosk that-
Pets: Doesn't cost a lot of money.
Zoe: Blythe, you find a lot of great clothes at second-hand shops. Maybe there's a second-hand shop that has one of these kiosk thingies.
Blythe: Hm, maybe there is!
Roger: Blythie, where are ya?
Blythe: I'm in the day camp, dad!
Roger: Boy oh boy, do I have some news for you!
Blythe: Heh! You're doing your happy dance, so it must be good news.
Roger: We just had a big meeting to discuss ideas of how to juice up the airline's business! I was paying close attention, brainstorming away when it hit me – Littlest Pet Shop does a great job catering to pets; why couldn't our airlines do the same thing?
Blythe: You mean, have a plane just for pets to travel on?
Roger: Exactly! My bosses loved the idea, and now you're looking at the pilot for the very first all-pet airplane, also known as – wait for it! Eh? – the Pet Jet!
Blythe: That is so cool!
Roger: I know! Imagine it – air travel just for pets, and their owners of course! Come on, I think this calls for some celebratory milk and cookies!
Blythe: Uh, dad, that's a snack for little kids! Okay, it's for big kids, too!
Russell: I've been on one of those airplane things before, but I wonder what one that's just for pets will be like.
Pepper: Are you kidding? It'll be pet-tastic!
[Minka]
Come fly the pet friendly skies
[Pepper]
We take pets of any size
[Penny Ling]
Climb aboard, it's time to jet
Russell: Wait! Don't leave! I’m not on board yet!
[Zoe]
Pedicure with a snack
[Vinnie]
Hey! These seats go way back!
Bird: Hey! Watch it!
Sunil: Are there any snakes on this plane?
All: SNAKES?!
[Minka]
Sorry sir, we're not that insane
[All]
No, you ain't seen nothin' yet
'Til you fly Pet Jet
Russell: Okay folks, I have a little pre-flight checklist here. Please make sure your seat belts are securely fastened. Also check your shoelaces are tied snugly. During the flight there will be no tail-chasing or dancing.
Vinnie: Aw, man!
Penny Ling: Okay! Let's go!
Russell: Penny!
[Zoe]
Around the world, up in the air
[Pepper]
You can hop out anywhere
Wiggles: Geronimo!
[Sunil]
Can you take me to Old Bombay?
[Canadian Moose]
I'm going to Moose Jaw, is that on the way?
[All]
No, you ain't seen nothin' yet
'Til you fly Pet Jet
Russell: Okay, we seem to be heading into some turbulence here. We'll just activate the Pet Jet cloud-parting machine and get this cleared up.
[All]
No, you ain't seen nothin' yet
'Til you fly
[Swan]
'Til you fly
[All]
'Til you fly
[Snake]
'Til you fly
[All]
'Til you fly Pet Jet
Blythe: [Sigh] I don't care how old I get, I'm always going to love milk and cookies.
Roger: Mm, me too! Mmm!
Blythe: Um, dad? Can I do this?
Roger: International Pet Fashion Expo. [Gulp] What's that?
Blythe: [Gasp] It's a super-cool conventiony kinda thing that I really want to do, but I have to set up my own business in order to get in. And I'm thinking about buying a sales kiosk for my pet clothes that's going to cost money, but don't worry about it because I've got everything figured out and I promise that my grades will stay good.
Roger: Well... it sounds like quite a committment, Blythe.
Blythe: Awesome! Thank you, daddy! [Smooch]
Roger: Uhhhh, you're welcome?
Penny Ling: [Sigh] It's been such a wonderful flight, hasn't it, Captain Russell?
Russell: It certainly has, co-pilot Penny Ling. The maiden flight of the Pet Jet has gone off without a hitch! That means perfectly in civilian talk.
[Beeping]
Russell: Uh-oh! Spoke too soon!
Penny Ling: [Gasp] What's the red light flashing for?
Russell: I'm not sure! There are so many buttons, lights, and switches, I can't tell if the landing gear is frozen or if the food in the microwave is done!
Zoe: I know we're looking for a kiosk, but if we happen to see any clothes for me, can we get them?
Blythe: Sure, Zoe.
Youngmee: I'm ready!
[Scooter revving]
Blythe: Let's go!
[Bell dings]
[Upbeat music]
Russell: Head flight attendant Pepper to the cockpit, please!
Pepper: Yes, captain? Hey, er, what's with the flashing red light?
Penny Ling: We don't know.
Russell: But until we figure it out, we need you to keep the passengers distracted in the unlikely event that this flashing red light means something bad!
Penny Ling: Something really, really bad!
Pepper: Don't worry about a thing. I got everything under control. (Plays assorted instruments while dressed like a clown) [Honk!] Everybody feeling distracted out there?
Sunil: When the head flight attendant uses extraordinary measures to distract you, it can only mean one thing!
Vinnie: Something really, really bad!
Vinnie & Sunil: [Screaming]
Blythe: [Sigh] Well, Youngmee, I may have to rethink my youth kiosk strategy.
Zoe: [Sniffing]
Youngmee: I honestly think we've hit every thrift shop in Downtown City.
Zoe: [Barking]
Blythe: Zoe?
Zoe: [Barking]
Youngmee: What is it, girl?
Blythe: One Last Chance Thrift Shop?
Blythe & Youngmee: [Squee]
Blythe: Oh, check it out, Youngmee! What do you think?
Youngmee: Well, it needs a lot of work.
Blythe: [Coughing] You're right, it's perfect! $250?! Not perfect. There's no way I can raise that kind of money.
Shop Owner: May I help you?
Blythe: I hope so. I'm really interested in this kiosk, but it's kind of expensive. Is there any way you could lower the price?
Shop Owner: I'm afraid not. 250 is pretty close to what I paid for it.
Blythe: Okay. Well, thanks anyway. Let's go, guys. Well, that was literally our one last chance to get a kiosk.
Shop Owner: Excuse me, young lady. I accept trades all the time.
Blythe: Trades? But, I don't have anything worth trading.
Shop Owner: Well, I don't know about that. Your scooter looks like it might be a fair trade. My kiosk for your scooter, what do you say?
Blythe: Huh... My scooter, huh?
Youngmee: Blythe, trade your scooter? Won't your dad be mad?
Blythe: Probably. Maybe not. Oh, I don't know!
Youngmee: Wow, Blythe - when you want to do something, you totally go for it. I can't believe you gave up your scooter.
Blythe: It's all part of the plan, Youngmee. As soon as I get the kiosk up and running, I can buy another scooter. But right now, I sure miss my old one. But, I'll have to figure out how I'm going to break the news to my dad. In the meantime, let's get going.
Youngmee: I always loved visiting Chinatown.
Blythe: Me too.
[Chinese music]
Penny Ling: Russell, wake up!
Russell: Wha - what happened?
Penny Ling: You fainted, again! Now get it together - we've got a flashing red light to deal with!
Russell: Right!
Youngmee: [Inhale] Ooh, that pizza smells so good! Blythe, I'm starving!
Blythe: No time to stop, Youngmee; we'll have to get it to go.
Russell: [Sniff] What's that smell, co-pilot?
Penny Ling: [Sniff] It smells like something's burning!
Russell: Oh, no!
Pepper: Just want to apologize for the smell. Guess I'm a little nervous. Hehe!
[Door closes]
Russell & Penny Ling: Whew!
[Construction sounds]
Blythe: Whoa! Be careful with that thing!
Zoe: [Growl, barking]
Blythe: Gah! Come on, let's get out of here!
[Thud]
Zoe: [Barking]
Blythe & Youngmee: Aaaaah! [Screaming] (They go riding down a steep sidewalk.)
Russell: [Screaming]
Penny Ling: What is your problem?
Russell: What's my problem? We're about to land the plane, and that red light there could mean that the wheels aren't locked! And if the wheels aren't locked, we'll start bouncing up and down like we're on a trampoline! And whenever I'm on a trampoline, I wear a helmet, and elbow pads, and wrist guards! And I didn't bring my helmet, or elbow pads, and I definitely didn't bring my wrist guards, Penny Ling! No wrist guards! [Screams] (Curls up into a ball)
Penny Ling: Nothing like that's going to happen to us, not if co-pilot Penny Ling has anything to say about it! This is acting captain Penny Ling speaking. We're about to land and it could get a little bumpy.
Vinnie & Sunil: [Screaming]
Penny Ling: Please take a brief moment to buckle yourselves in.
(Vinnie and Sunil put their seatbelts on.)
Vinnie & Sunil: [Screaming]
Penny Ling: Here we go!
Pet passengers: [Yelp]
[Beeping]
[Screeching]
Penny Ling: [Straining]
[Beeping]
Russell: Gah! Did we make it?
[Beep]
(The microwave door opens.)
Russell: Hey, what do you know? The red light was for the microwave!
Penny Ling: [Frustrated growling]
Russell: [Gulps, awkward laugh] Popcorn?
Youngmee: [Panting] I don't think I can push this thing another step!
(A wheel breaks off.)
Blythe: It doesn't look like that's going to be possible anyway.
Youngmee: Well, this can't be good.
Blythe: Oh, no! Largest Ever Pet Shop! [Dials phone] Hello, Mrs. Twombly? Youngmee and I were pushing my new kiosk across town and a wheel fell off right in front of the Largest Ever Pet Shop. I hate to ask this, but could you please drive over and pick us up as fast as you can? Thanks. [Sigh] Hopefully, she'll get here before the Biskits see us. Yeeee!
Whittany: Like, too late!
Blythe: [Groan]
Brittany: Yeah, we see you, and your friend, and your dog, and your sad little- your gross- really, your beat up- Ugh! What is that thing?!
Blythe: This is a sales kiosk that I'm going to refurbish and use at the International Pet Fashion Expo, also known as the IPFE.
Whittany: Oh, yeah? Well, wait until you see what we're doing for the IPFE thingy.
Brittany: Yeah, we'll blow you out of the water with our awesomeness.
Whittany: So we'll see you there!
Blythe: Actually, you'll see me tomorrow at school since the IPFE is still a few months away.
Whittany: Ugh!
Brittany: We, like, knew that!
Whittany: Yeah, we were just, like, messing with your head!
Blythe: Really? In that case, I think you need to work on your head messing skills 'cause it didn't really work.
[Car horn]
(Mrs. Twombly arrives in the Pet Shuttle.)
Mrs. Twombly: I got here as fast as I could, Blythe! (Replaces the wheel on the kiosk) Okie-dokie, all aboard! [To the Biskits] See you in the funny papers, girls!
[Tires screeching]
Russell: Blythe, do all kiosk carts look that bad?
Blythe: Well, I'll admit this one isn't in the best shape; but with a little elbow grease, we'll have it looking awesome in no time!
Penny Ling: Okay, pets – let's get busy!
[Upbeat music]
[Sawing]
[Hammering]
Sunil: [Whistling]
[Splat!]
Blythe: Isn't it the coolest thing ever, dad?
Roger: It sure is, Blythie. I'm very impressed. Where in the world did you get the money for this? It must've cost a small fortune.
Blythe: Huh? Oh! Well... [Awkward laugh] A fortune? Like I'd have a fortune! Nope, it didn't cost a fortune, that's for sure! Nope, no fortune was spent on this kiosk, no siree!
Roger: Well, anyway, I'm very proud of you for pulling this together.
Blythe: Thanks, dad.
Roger: Ooh, I almost forgot. How'd you like to come down to the airport to check out the new Pet Jet? It's all finished, so I figured you and your little pet friends could hop on the old scooter and swing-a-ding-ding on by! Where is your scooter anyway?
Blythe: My scooter? Where is it? Well, it's not here, that's for sure! Dad, do you think the pets and I can catch a ride with you instead? I mean, the airport is pretty far from here, especially if you have to get there on a scooter! [Laugh]
Roger: You're right, I hadn't thought about the distance. Sure, you and the pets can ride with me.
Blythe: Yay.
Blythe: Wow, dad! The Pet Jet is amazing!
Roger: Wait until you see the inside!
Chef Henri: Bienvenue, mes amis.
Pets: [Animal sounds]
Roger: So, what do you think?
Pets: [Animal sounds]
[Door opens]
Russell: I don't see any flashing red lights.
Penny Ling: Thank goodness.
Roger: This is for you, Blythe.
Blythe: What for? Oh! It's heavy!
Roger: For doing such an amazing job in fixing up your kiosk.
Blythe: A trailer hitch?
Roger: For your scooter. All you have to do is hook your kiosk to it and away you go.
Blythe: Oh, uh... thanks, dad.
Roger: What's wrong, Blythie?
Blythe: Oh, dad, I wanted to tell you this sooner, but I thought you'd be so disappointed in me, so I didn't and... what I was going to tell you is, I had to trade in my scooter to get the kiosk!
Roger: I knew that. Follow me. I happened to be driving by a second-hand store when I saw a certain scooter sitting in the window. You know, your dad's a pretty smart guy!
Blythe: What the...?
Roger: I put two and two together and figured out what happened.
Blythe: I'm sorry, dad. I should've told you sooner.
Roger: Well, don't worry about it, Blythe. I'm actually impressed that you were mature enough to work out a deal like that.
Blythe: You are?
Roger: Oh, of course. But next time, give me a heads up about trading your scooter for something so I don't have to buy it back again.
Blythe: Deal. This is so cool! I can't believe you bought it back for me, dad!
Roger: Well, I had to. If you're going to be a successful businesswoman, you've got to have a reliable means of transportation. I read that somewhere, I think.
Blythe: [Squee]
Pets: [Animal sounds]
Blythe: Come on, everybody! Hop in, and I'll drive us all home! Uh-oh! What's that flashing red light mean?
Russell: [Gasp]
Vinnie & Sunil: [Screaming]
Penny Ling: [Bang] Uh, nothing!
Blythe: Heh!
