101 Dalmatian Street transcript for “Fear Window.”
In a room inside 101 Dalmatian Street, a blind opens, revealing the sunlight. Dolly, wearing a cone and a cast on one of her hind legs, sits on a set of drawers with wheels. Triple D itch her leg and fan her.
DOLLY: Ooh, yeah! Right there. Oh, yep! Yep, yep, yep! Ooh! Ahh! Oh, yeah, that’s the spot.
Delilah enters.
DELILAH: Ugh! Dolly Dalmatian! (to Triple D) You three, stand down.
Triple D jump off of the drawers.
DELILAH: (shouting) Dylan!
Dylan enters.
DYLAN: (chuckles) Let me guess… (sniffs Dolly) Unauthorized scratching.
DELILAH: Which means you’re in charge of the patient while I go to work.
DOLLY: What?!
Dylan laughs and Delilah kisses Dolly’s cheek. Delilah drags Triple D out of the room and exits.
DYLAN: Don’t worry—I’ll keep her coned-up and scratch-free!
DOLLY: Bro, please, have a heart. Just one teensy, weensy, little…
DYLAN: Scratch? Mm, let me think about it… No!
Dolly sighs and grabs her leg, trying to pull the cast off. She falls off of the drawers.
Spots transition. Dylan vacuums the room while Dolly miserably lays on the drawers.
DOLLY: Ugh, I’m so bored!
DYLAN: Try “I Spy,” cout to a trillion, think good thoughts about Pluto becoming a planet again.
DOLLY: Okay, I’m not that bored!
Dylan powers down the vacuum and exits the room.
DYLAN: Listen, I do have a heart, so let me treat you to…
DOLLY: (excited) A satisfying scratch? (She notices what Dylan has brought her and sighs.)
Dylan has reentered with his telescope.
DYLAN: Some telescope time!
DOLLY: (sarcastically) Gee, lucky me. Huh.
Dylan opens the window and sets up the telescope. He pushes the drawers forward until Dolly’s eye is close enough to the lens.
DYLAN: Hey, no sticky paws on the lens!
DOLLY: (mocking) “No sticky paws on the lens…”
Dylan groans. Dolly sighs and looks into the telescope. She sees Clarissa yapping in her backyard.
DOLLY: What’s got Clarissa all worked-up? (She sees Constantin licking his rear on his fence.) Oh, Constantin! (laughs) Rocking the butt-lick pose. (chuckles) That is so weird! (laughs)
DYLAN: (to self) Phew! Okay. I got stuff to do.
Spots transition. Clarissa throws out many objects from her home, including Hugo’s slippers. Dolly watches.
DOLLY: Huh? That’s strange. (shouting) Dylan!
Dylan rushes in.
DYLAN: What?
DOLLY: (concerned) You gotta see this. It’s way cray!
Dylan sighs and looks into the telescope.
DOLLY: Clarissa’s taking out the garbage.
DYLAN: Whoa. That is a world first.
He sees Clarissa dragging out a framed photo of herself with Hugo.
DYLAN: She usually gets her pet to do stuff like that.
DOLLY: Exactly! Where is Hugo?
A crash is heard from Clarissa’s backyard. Dylan and Dolly see a teapot among the pile of garbage.
DYLAN: And is that…?
DOLLY: His favorite teapot?
DEE DEE (O.S.): Dylan! Bedtime story!
PUPPIES (O.S.): Where are you?
DYLAN: Whoop. Gotta get the pups to bed. (exits)
Dolly sees Clarissa kicking dirt on Hugo’s slippers.
DOLLY: (shouting) Dylan, Dylan, Dylan!
Dylan rushes in with a sleepy Dorothy on his head.
DYLAN: What now?
DOLLY: Look, look, look! You think maybe something’s happened to Hugo?
DYLAN: (scoffs) No! Clarissa would howl the house down without her pet.
DOLLY: Unless…she’s the something that happened.
DYLAN: Um, you think maybe the heat’s gone to your head?
Dorothy begins to slip off Dylan’s head. He grabs her and exits. Dolly groans and looks back into the telescope. She sees Clarissa intimidatingly staring back at her. Dolly screams and falls off the drawers.
DOLLY: Ow. (peeking over drawers) Did she see me?
Spots transition. Late, at night, Dolly snores atop the drawers. She wakes up at the sound of clattering from Clarissa’s backyard.
DOLLY: Aah. Dylan!
DYLAN (O.S.): Ignoring you…
Dolly looks into the telescope and sees Clarissa stuffing Hugo’s belongings into a trash can. Clarissa rips the framed photo of herself and Hugo.
DOLLY: Dylan! Dylan!
She gets no response, pauses, and clears her throat.
DOLLY: (weakly) Help! Oh! I’ve fallen over! Help! (groans)
Dylan trips as he rushes in. He sees Dolly, perfectly fine and smiling.
DYLAN: (groans) Not funny! (begins to leave)
DOLLY: Wait, seriously! Clarissa’s trashing all his stuff. Look!
DYLAN: Ugh! Fine. But since when do you care about Hugo?
He hops up onto the drawers and looks into the telescope.
DOLLY: Since Clarissa ended him! Oh, she’s so gonna get in trouble and be taken away…for good! (evilly laughs)
DYLAN: (sarcastically) Wow. So glad you made me check out nothing.
DOLLY: What?
She looks into the telescope and sees the garbage can is emptier than it was before. Clarissa walks into her house. Dolly sees Hugo’s wig in the garbage.
DOLLY: (gasps) Oh, it’s horrible.
DYLAN: (looking in telescope) What? Is that what I think it is?
DOLLY: Hugo’s hair! Oh, you gotta go get Pearl.
DYLAN: Oh, I don’t know if it’s appropriate to bother the emergency services…
DOLLY: It’s his hair!
DYLAN: (reluctantly) Okay.
DOLLY: Yes! (She slips off the drawers and groans upon landing on the floor.)
Spots transition. Dylan and Pearl stand in front of Clarissa’s house.
PEARL: Still nothing. (knickers)
DYLAN: Mm…
A light turns on in the house. A silhouette of Hugo petting Clarissa is seen through a window.
PEARL: You know, I could ticket you for wasting police time. (walks off)
Dylan grumbles and walks back into his house and into the room Dolly is in.
DYLAN: Dolly! Dolly? Dolly, Hugo’s in the house!
DOLLY: Huh? Did you see him for sure?
DYLAN: Well, not exactly, but…
DOLLY: (suspicious) Bro?
DIZZY (O.S.): Dylan, tuck us in!
DEE DEE (O.S.): I’m falling out!
DYLAN: (to Dolly) Let it go. (exits)
Dolly looks back into the telescope and sees Hugo’s shoe half-buried in the ground of Clarissa’s backyard.
DOLLY: (gasps) That’s him! That’s Hugo…
Diesel, sleep-digging and snoring, bursts through the floor.
DOLLY: (screams) Oh! (sighs with relief) Sleep-digging again, eh, Diesel?
Diesel yawns.
DOLLY: Hey, how about a digging mission?
DIESEL: (wakes up) Huh? Oh! Dig, dig, dig!
Spots transition. Dolly watches Diesel dig in Clarissa’s backyard through the telescope.
DIESEL: Dig, dig, dig, dig…
DOLLY: We’ll get to the bottom of this!
Diesel digs through the ground, pops up, and chews Hugo’s discarded clothes. He burrows and suddenly pops up once again, startling Dolly. She yelps and turns around, sees Dylan right behind her, and yelps again.
DOLLY: Dylan! (sighs with relief) She’s definitely done something to him. Look: a boot, a glove… What’s next—a head?
DYLAN: (gasps) Would you quit it?
DOLLY: Bro, you gotta get in there. Just…please, see what’s happening.
DYLAN: (smirking) Yeah, that cone is definitely restricting blood flow to your brain. (yawns) Besides, I am one pooped pup.
Dolly hears Clarissa yapping. She sees Clarissa, Prunella, and Arabella heading out for a walk with Prunella’s human.
CLARISSA: (to Prunella’s human) Hurry up, you imbecile! Let’s get this over with.
DOLLY: Weird. She’s taking Prunella’s human for a walk. (to Dylan) Look, if you go now, you’ll be in and out before they get back.
DYLAN: I don’t know. Isn’t that kind of…illegal? Also… (yawns) …bedtime.
DOLLY: Ugh. If you don’t go in, I-I’ll never shut up! I won’t let you sleep tonight. Ha! Or, I won’t let you sleep—period! Ever again! Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever-r-r!
DYLAN: Okay, okay, okay! Stop!
DOLLY: Yippee! (She grabs a flashlight.) I’ll provide backup, signal you with a flashlight if she comes back.
She flickers the light in Dylan’s face once. Dylan signs with anxiety.
DOLLY: Come on! Have I ever let you down? (She notices Dylan’s grumpy face.) Okay, don’t answer that.
Spots transition. Dylan sneaks about Clarissa’s backyard, heading inside her house. He trips over a pile of dirt and sees a bone in the ground.
DYLAN: A b-bone!
Diesel bursts through the ground with the bone in his mouth. Dylan screams.
DIESEL: Oh, beef bone! (digs back underground)
DYLAN: (sighs with relief) Oh! Not human, not Hugo. Phew!
Suspenseful violin sounds come from a pigeon perched on Clarissa’s fence, startling Dylan. He continues toward the house.
DYLAN: Come on, get it together, Dylan!
He walks in the house and whimpers. He walks by an open fridge, stepping in a red substance.
DYLAN: Oh! Is that…bl-bl-blood? Oh, no!
He runs off. It is revealed that the “blood” is actually ketchup, spilling out of its bottle. Dylan runs to the front door, but it begins opening up. He quickly hides. At the door, Clarissa, Arabella, Prunella, and Prunella’s human stand. Dolly watches.
DOLLY: Back already? No, no, no, no, no!
She turns on the flashlight, but it slips out of her hand and lands in her cone.
DOLLY: Ouch!
She struggles to get the flashlight out. She flings her head back and the flashlight falls out. It crashes on the floor and breaks, powering down.
DOLLY: Seriously? (shouting) Dylaaa–!
In Clarissa’s house, Clarissa stands at the door and talks with her friends.
CLARISSA: She expects one to actually walk.
PRUNELLA: Tell me about it.
Dylan peeks behind a door and watches them.
CLARISSA: Impertinence! Clear off one’s property now!
She slams the door and begins walking down the hallway.
DYLAN: (whispering, sarcastically) Got my back, huh, sis? Gee, thanks.
Clarissa stops and Dylan gasps. Clarissa sniffs and looks around for a moment. She then walks into her room and turns on the light, revealing shadows of herself and Hugo. Dylan sneaks up.
CLARISSA: Honestly, Hugo, Prunella’s pet has the most ghastly manners!
Dylan peeks in and sees a puppet of Hugo made out of the objects Clarissa was ruining before.
CLARISSA: It’s all in the breeding, as only you know.
Dylan gasps. Clarissa pulls on a string, causing the Hugo puppet to pet her.
CLARISSA: May one have one’s cuddle now?
Dylan retreats into the hallway.
DYLAN: (gasps) Oh, I can’t unsee that! Oh, that’s so wrong. Dolly was right! Clarissa’s a… (pupils shrink) I gotta get outta here!
He runs off, heading for the back door in which he came in. He slips on the ketchup and crashes.
CLARISSA: Who goes there? Be warned! I shall tear you limb from limb!
Dylan sees Clarissa at the end of the hallway. The lights flicker, with Clarissa getting closer to Dylan each time they come on until she is right in front of him. Dylan yelps. In the backyard, Diesel chews on electricity wires and sees the lights flickering.
DIESEL: Oops.
Dylan runs around the backyard and back into the house, with Clarissa chasing after him. Dolly watches.
DOLLY: Oh, no! Bro, I’m coming!
She jumps out of the window, bounces off of a trampoline, and lands on the window ceiling of Clarissa’s sunroom.
DOLLY: Ouch. Ugh. (She notices Dylan and Clarissa’s absence and gasps.) Where’d they go? Dylan? Bro?
Dylan screams as he runs out of Clarissa’s house. Clarissa bursts through her door, continuing after him. Dylan heads for his house.
CLARISSA: I’ll rip you to shreds!
Dylan runs into his house. Clarissa leaps, but Dylan slams the door into her. She peeks through the mail slot, looks around, and leaves.
CLARISSA: Hmph!
She kicks her feet back and walks off. The window pane Dolly is on opens, causing her to fall into Clarissa’s house.
DOLLY: (exclaims) Youch!
She groans, rubs her head, and sees a human figure approach her. It is Hugo, with shinier hair. He yelps upon seeing Dolly.
DOLLY: Hugo?
HUGO: How did you get in? (picks up Dolly) Ugh! And why are you such a mess?
Clarissa returns and barks.
CLARISSA: Hugo! Finally back from your hair transplant surgery. (She notices Hugo with Dolly, causing her to scream.)
DOLLY: Oh! (nervously chuckles) Oopsie.
CLARISSA: (gasps) How dare you cuddle that creature! (yaps) The ruff raff!
DOLLY: (laughs) Try and get me! (chuckles) Come on, bring it.
Clarissa continues yipping.
HUGO: Calm yourself, my precious.
Clarissa leaps onto Hugo’s face. Hugo drops Dolly as Clarissa scratches his hair, ruining it.
HUGO: (yelps) Stop! Every strand costs a fortune! I beg of you! (exclaims)
Dolly leaves. She hastily reenters the Dalmatian house, but trips in the doggy door.
DOLLY: (winces) Ow…
Delilah enters.
DELILAH: Dolly, what in the world? Inside, now.
Dylan enters.
DOLLY: Hey, Dylan, you’re alive! I’m sorry. I was trying to save you.
DYLAN: (sighs) Come on. Let’s get you back to bed.
Spots transition. In the morning, Dolly is asleep on a pillow in the room. Diesel emerges through the floor wearing the face of the Hugo puppet. Dolly screams. Diesel takes off the mask and the puppies, including Dylan, watch from the door. They all laugh. The pigeon reappears and makes more suspenseful violin sounds, leaving the puppies stunned.
