Otto & Sam -- "Lucky" The scene is the Australian Prime Minister's residence in Canberra. It is a typical sunny afternoon and Cobber, the Prime Minister's kelpie, is out frolicing around in the backyard, catching a frizbee being tossed by one of the servants. Suddenly, Cobber's ears perk up, he hears the unmistakable sound of a car pulling up into the circle driveway. It is a long black limosine with several people inside. SERVANT (outloud, looks at watch): There they are, right on time! The defense minister and his party are here... (points to the car) and lookie, Cobber, one of them brought their dog with them! Cobber suddenly looks over at the black limo, he sees a female kelpie on a leash being held by one of the business suit wearing passengers. SERVANT (smiles, looks down at Cobber): Well Cobber, looks like you have a playmate today! I'll bring her over here! COBBER (thinking to himself): Oh swell! Just what I needed! What if the Master calls me while she's here? Can't exactly take her down the luge with me, could I? The servant brings the kelpie over and takes off her leash. SERVANT (smiles): We won't be needed that, this yard is completely fenced in! Cobber, meet Lucky! Lucky, this is Cobber! You two have fun, it's time for me to serve out guests their tea! As the servant runs back towards the house, Lucky smiles at Cobber. They begin a conversation consisting of short barks, the others around hear barking, but they understand each other perfectly. LUCKY (barking): Hi there handsome! Can I sniff ya? COBBER (barking): Er... no thank you ma'am LUCKY (barking): You seem edgy, Cobber, bet you're a shy guy, right? COBBER (barking, rolls eyes): Er...right! LUCKY (barking): You heard what the badly dressed human said, let's have some FUN!! COBBER (barking, shakes head): Can we... play with tennis balls? Fetch? Frizbee? LUCKY (barking, slowly walks over to him): That's NOT what I had in mind, you gourgeous hunk of he-dog! COBBER (barking): Lucky, I'm flattered, but the answer is no! I have a girlfriend and ... LUCKY (barking): Girlfriend? Where is she? I want to meet her! COBBER (barking): She's... she's.... not here now. LUCKY (barking, smiling): Then she'll never know! Lucky licks Cobber on the face, he jumps back and growls in a low tone. LUCKY (barking): What's the matter? Don't you find my attractive? COBBER (barking, nods): Yes, I do, Lucky.. but.... LUCKY (barking): Well, on with it then! Let's party! As Lucky approaches Cobber again, a light shines down on Cobber. MASTER (booming voice): COBBER! IT'S TIME! Lucky, being a dog, can both see the light and hears the Master's voice. At first, she's scared, but then regains her composure. LUCKY (barking): What was THAT all about! COBBER (barking, panics): No time to explain! (points with paw): LOOKIE! A giant redwood! LUCKY (turns around): A redwood tree? Where? Cobber uses this opportunity to run from Lucky, when he's out of her line of sight, he dashes for the secret luge entrance and within a minute, arrives at Road Rover Mission Control. He transdogmaifies and joins Hunter, Colleen, Exile, Shag, Muzzle, Blitz, Dylan, Dervish, DJ, Otto, Samantha and Molly Maddog in the briefing room. MASTER (from his podium): Road Rovers, we have a mystery to solve. HUNTER (smiles): COOL!!! MASTER (points at map): Several ancient stone tablets have been stolen from various museums in South America and ... The Master is interrupted by the wailing of a loud emergency siren. MASTER (shocked): We have an intruder! OTTO (nods): Scanning...... confirmed! Unauthorized transport taking place from the Austrailan luge tunnel! COBBER (panics): Oh my gosh! It can't be! MASTER (panics): Don't just stand there! To the transdogmafier room! The Rovers and the Master rush out to the transdogmafier room, just in time to see a female kelpie jump out of a luge cart. The kelpie sees the Rovers running towards her, panics, and tries to run away. She unwittingly runs into a transdogmafier chamber and emerges as a cano-sapien clad in a Road Rover sliver and blue uniform. OTTO (points): There is your unauthorized intruder! LUCKY (looks at herself): Blimey! What happened to me? (looks up): COBBER!!! So there you are! She rushes over, hugs Cobber tightly and licks his face repeatedly. Cobber struggles then manages to free himself. COBBER (angry): Lucky! What are you doing here? You don't belong ... LUCKY (smiles): I followed the trail of your scent to that funny hole in the ground and now, here I am! COBBER (upset): That's just ducky! We've getting ready for a mission and then you have to ... LUCKY (brightens): A mission! NOW I get it! You're a Road Rover! Like those other bloaks standin' behind ya! I'd never guessed that you were one of them! COBBER (nods): Lucky, you gotta go! LUCKY (smirks): I'm not leaving, until I make you MINE, Cobbie! BLITZ (walks over): Hey der pretty dog girl! If kangeroo boy doesn't want ya, how about going out with me! I'm such a stud! I got super teeth, super muscles! LUCKY (smirks): And a super ego to match! No thanks! BLITZ (puts arm around): Oh now, give me a chance! LUCKY (angry): Here's somethin' I'll give ya! Lucky karate kicks Blitz into a wall. COLLEEN (smiles): Gotta admit, I like her style! DJ (giggles): Perfect two point landing for Blitz! DYLAN (smiles): Does that count the point on his head? EXILE (shakes head): Always the weird boy! Lucky rushes over to Cobber and gives him a kiss, he backs away. COBBER (upset): Like I told ya, Lucky! I have a girlfriend! LUCKY (points): You mean her? That British collie! COLLEEN (growls): The name's Colleen, missy! COBBER (shakes head): No no! I'm in love with a ... LUCKY (interrupts): Ok, here's the deal, Cobbie! If you don't make nicey nice with me, I'll go back through that funny tunnel and tell everyone who you really are! SAMANTHA (shocked): OH NO!!! DERVISH (shocked): What the? MASTER (surpirsed): NO!! LUCKY (nods): That's right! I'll even lead your owner right to THIS place! So, what's it gonna be? Me, or your secrets exposed? COBBER (upset): Lucky, you have NO right to do this! OTTO (sternly): Cobber is correct! He is romancely involved with an Austrialian Shepard named Sheena! LUCKY (growls): DUMP HER!! (shakes her hips): What's she got that I haven't got? COBBER (smiles): My heart! LUCKY (mad): NO!! I WANT YOU, COBBER!!! COBBER (growls): I said NO! LUCKY (points, angry): You'll be sorry, Cobber! VERY SORRY! Lucky runs over to the luges, her cano-sapien body is too large to fit inside. As she stops, Hunter and Molly use their super speed to surround her, each grabs an arm and brings her back to the group. DYLAN (looks at the Master): Master, what do we do? She knows too much about Cobber! DERVISH (shakes head): We can't just keep her here forever! DJ (confused): But what can we do then? LUCKY (laughs): You mutts are Road Rovers! You can't harm one of your own, can you? Face it, Cobber, you're MINE! SAMANTHA (sadly): What a terrible way to behave, miss Lucky, ma'am! LUCKY (growls): Stay out of this, you pampered pooch! OTTO (turns to the Master): Master, may I offer an alternative solution? MASTER (nods): Alright, what do you suggest? OTTO (sternly): I can make Lucky forget all about her experience here today with my cerebral neutralizer. It is safe, fast, and does no permanent harm to the person it's used on. MASTER (nods): Proceed! As Otto approaches Lucky, she struggles violently, trying to wiggle her way out of Hunter's and Molly's grasp. COLLEEN (sternly): She's floppin' around like a flea on a hot brick! OTTO (sternly): You must hold still, Lucky! LUCKY (still struggling): Not on your life! You're not gonna brainwash me! COBBER (motions to Otto): C'mere, I have an idea! Cobber and Otto walk out of the room, a minute later, only Cobber returns. COBBER (sadly): Lucky, it looks like I have no choice... I will do exactly what you say... EXILE (shocked): Bolshoi! BLITZ (surprised): WHAT??? MOLLY (shocked): NO!! HUNTER (upset): You're going to betray Sheena? COBBER (sadly): What choice do I have? I can't let her reveal our secrets now, can I? LUCKY (evil grin): NOW you're talkin'! You better make me VERY happy, so I'll keep my mouth closed! COBBER (nods): Ok, darlin', let's start out with a kiss! SAMANTHA (panics): COBBER! Don't do it! LUCKY (smiles): At last! Cobber slowly walks over to Lucky, he lovingly looks into her eyes... and then fires a orange beam of light out of his eyes. His holographic costume now disappears, revealing that this is really Otto. LUCKY (sternly): You tricked me! OTTO (sternly): Mind link established.... I am removing all her memories of this place and Cobber being a Road Rover..... now I will place her in a hypnosis induced sleep for one hour..... it is done! With Hunter and Molly still holding her arms, Lucky suddenly falls asleep. MASTER (relieved): Good work Otto! Place her in the transdogmafier! Molly and Hunter drag her into the chamber and she's returned to her canine form. OTTO (nods): I can quietly return her to the Prime Minister's residence! COBBER (smiles): I guess I better be there too, just in case something goes wrong MASTER (nods): Good idea Cobber, proceed! The scene is now the front lawn of the Prime Ministers home, one hour later. Lucky is still asleep, resting comfortably under the shade of an apple tree. Cobber and Otto, in their canine forms, watch patiently as she awakens. Another bark filled conversation follows. LUCKY (yawning, barking): Whoa! What happened? COBBER (barking): You took a nap, deary! LUCKY (nods, barking): Ok, who's the handsome dog next to you, Cobber? OTTO (barking): My name is Otto, pleased to meet ya! LUCKY (barking, smiles): Otto! Can I sniff ya? OTTO (barking): That would not be appropriate behavior LUCKY (confused, barking): HUH? A servant runs over and puts Lucky back on her leash. SERVANT (smiles): Ok Lucky, time to go now! The meeting's over and your master is waiting! As the one servant leads Lucky back to the limo, another servant walks over to Cobber and Otto with two supper dishes full of dog food. SERVANT #2 (watches Lucky leave): Well, I had this ready for you and lucky, but I guess your German Shepard friend here can eat it! No sense letting it go to waste! The servant sets the supper dishes done and walks away. OTTO (in human voice): Thank you! SERVANT #2 (happy): You're welcome... (shocked): HUH??? (turns around): Hey, did one of you dogs say something? OTTO (in human voice): No! SERVANT #2 (nods): Oh, alright then and .... (panics, does a double take): NO!!! I'm going bonkers! I'm losin' me marbles! The servant screams and runs away in a state of fright. COBBER (barking): Otto, that wasn't very nice! OTTO (barking): True, but it was rather amusing! The two dogs continue eating their dog food in peace -------------------------------------------------------------------------
