Transcript
00:00Oh, Jimmy, what's the matter?
00:03They made a mistake, Mom. They sent me somebody else's dog.
00:06It would make you think so, dear.
00:08Well, if he's my dog, he'd be glad to see me, wouldn't he?
00:11Really?
00:12Oh, he doesn't even know me at all.
00:15Oh, come here, boy. What's the matter with you? Have you forgotten him?
00:19See? See, Mom? He doesn't know you either.
00:22He isn't Danny boy. I know he isn't.
00:26Well, maybe you remember his kennel. Why don't you try there?
00:31I never thought of that.
00:34Come on, boy.
00:40See, boy? That's where he used to sleep, remember?
00:47Go on in and look around. Come on, my darling.
00:54It's no use, Mom. He isn't my dog.
00:57Well, we'll soon find out whether he is or not.
01:00Well, I'm surprised at you, dear.
01:03Have you forgotten the scar boy got on that barbed wire?
01:06Oh, yeah, that's right. Down, boy. Down. Down, fella.
01:13Danny boy, all right. Here's a scar.
01:16You are my dog, aren't you?
01:19What's the matter, fella? Why don't you know me?
01:23Have you forgotten all the good times we used to have together?
01:28What's the matter, Mom? Why doesn't he know me?
01:31Oh, don't get all upset, dear.
01:33Maybe all the fighting he's been through is why he acts so strange.
01:36Maybe.
01:38I bet you Joe Cameron will know the reason.
01:41Yeah, I'll bet Joe will know.
01:43Because what is this Joe's outfit in the South Pacific?
01:46I'll go find Joe and Margie right now if they're on their way home from the station.
01:49Wait, dear.
01:51Joe and Margie haven't seen each other in a long time,
01:54and I don't think you should bother them just now.
01:57Yeah, but, well, when can I see them?
02:00How about tonight? Joe will be here for dinner.
02:03Okay. Can I take boy for a walk?
02:06Sure.
02:08Okay. Come on, boy.
