That night, an old woman, she must've been the grandmother brought me out a bowl of some homemade hibachi-chili. I like to think she cooked it for me, personally -but who knows? Maybe it was just more left-overs. But... You've got a tick.

Professor Watanabe, Science-Party Candidate, deceased. The wasabi in your blood showed poison-levels in excess of ten times the maximum dosage required to stop the heart of a whale. Why'd you do it?

Atari. You heroically, as I was saying, stole the little airplane, because of your dog and... I lost my train of thought.

You heard the rumor, right? About these aboriginal dogs. - Remind me again. - What's the rumor? Uh, they're cannibals. So you're telling me they're going to want to eat us? Well, they're cannibals.

I don't think I can stomach any more of this garbage. - Same here. - Words out of my mouth. I used to sleep on a lamb's-wool bean-bag next to an electric space-heater. That's my territory. I'm an indoor dog. I starred in 22 consecutive Doggy Chop commercials. Look at me now. I couldn't land an audition. I was the lead mascot for an undefeated high-school baseball team. I lost all my spirit. I'm depressing. I only ask for what I've always had: a balanced diet, regular grooming, and a general physical once a year. I think I might give up. - What, right now? - Right now. There's no future on Trash Island. You heard the rumor, right? About Buster. - Not sure. - Can you remind me? Who's Buster? Uh, my brother from another litter. - What happened to him? - Suicided. Hanged himself by his own leash. - Hmm. - Oh, boy. I want my master. Ah... You make me sick. I've seen cats with more balls than you dogs. Stop licking your wounds! You hungry? Kill something and eat it. You sick? Take a long nap. You cold? Dig a hole in the ground, crawl into it, and bury yourself. But nobody's giving up around here, and don't you forget it, ever. You're Rex! You're King! You're Duke! You're Boss! I'm Chief. We're a pack of scary, indestructible Alpha Dogs. You're talking like a bunch of house-broken... pets. You don't understand. Uh, how could you? You're a...

For a thousand years, these resilient animals have loved, served and protected us. Now, in their time of greatest need, we forsake them again? A tidal-wave of Anti-Dog hysteria has crippled our moral judgment. Give me six months, and I will deliver a serum. I'm this close, dammit. Dog-Flu will be eradicated. Snout-fever will be defeated. Canine Saturation will be returned to sustainable levels and without mass-neutering!

As you know, most of the animals on this island come from human homes with domesticated back-grounds. However, a small population of savage, aboriginal dogs have been scavenging the Metropolitan Dumping-Grounds for nearly a decade. The graffiti on this wall depicts the story.

Some say they swam to the mainland, but this seems unlikely. Too far to dog-paddle. Some say they're still with us, in the Far-away Cuticles, beyond the Middle Fingers.

If Spots has preceded me into the next life, I ask that everything, including my own bones and Spots' carcass, be burned in a crematory furnace, with our ashes scattered to the four-winds. It will not amount to much pollution in this sad land. If I survive, ignore this message.

Ten centuries ago, before the Age of Obedience, free dogs roamed at liberty, marking their territory. Seeking to extend its dominion, the cat-loving Kobayashi Dynasty declared war and descended in force upon the unwary four-legged beasts. On the eve of total canine annihilation, a child warrior sympathetic to the plight of the besieged underdog dogs betrayed his species, beheaded the head of the head of the Kobayashi clan and pledged his sword with the following battle-cry haiku. He would later be known as the Boy Samurai of Legend, RIP. At the end of the bloody dog wars, the vanquished mongrels became powerless house-pets: tamed, mastered, scorned. But they survived and multiplied. The Kobayashis, however, never forgave their conquered foe.

What's your name? Who cares? You're from central Megasaki. I can tell by the accent. You're a short-haired-Oceanic- speckle-ear/sport-hound-mix. You were born in a storm-sewer on Bamboo-shoot Holiday six years ago today. Do you know me? I... I don't... I don't know. I'm your older brother by five minutes. It's been a long time, Chief.
