"Show Dog, Show."

Ladies and gentlemen
of the Pawston Pawtomotive Garage,

I give you... the Barker Buggy!

Oh, wonderful, Tag! Wonderful!

Yes! It's just like a regular car.

Oh, there's nothing "regular"
about this car, Grandpaw.

It's got all kinds of cool gizmos
and gadgets in it. Check it out.

[beeps]

[Grandpaw] Ooh. Snacks!

[Grandmaw] No snacks before lunch, Mort.

No problem. I already had lunch.
[chomps]

Your car is really something, Tag.

I'm sure everyone will be blown away
at the Pawston Car Show.

-[horn honks]
-Did somebody say "show"?

I love shows! It's why I became a clown.

The acrobatics! The roar of the crowd.
The sneezing.

"The sneezing?"

[sneezes]

Oh! That's just wonderful!

It's not that kind of show,
Cheddar Biscuit. It's a car show.

A car show?

It's where dogs get to show off
the cars they built.

The car show is tonight only.

It's my one chance to show off
the Barker Buggy.

It's kind of a big deal.

That is a big deal!

Can I come?

I mean, if my little sister's
in a show, I gotta be there.

Sure! But just remember, it's the Tag show
tonight, not the Cheddar Biscuit show.

Yep. It's your night. Let's go!

[Tag] Can you stop juggling first?

Sorry. I didn't even know I was doing it.
It's a clown thing. [chuckles]

[beeps]

[Grandmaw] See you at the show!

Pawston Speedway, here we come!

What? Can't hear you!
Getting some serious ear flap!

No problem. I can fix that
with my Barker Buggy Ear De-Flapper.

Wow! You invented that?

Your buggy's gonna be a car show star!

As long as I'm not late.
I hope there's not too much traffic.

Hard to tell
with that truck in front of us.

But with my Buggy Be-Taller feature,
it's easy. Watch!

[beeps]

Whoa! These are better than the stilts
we use at the circus!

Looks like we've got nothing
but open road ahead.

We'll get to the speedway
with time to spare.

Wow! Never seen a car do that before!

You should come to the car show
and see what else it can do.

Ooh, a car show? It's my lucky day!

See you at the speedway!

Oh, hey! That's my friend Waggles.

I bet he'd love the car show.
Can we bring him?

I don't think my car is big enough.

Don't worry, sis.
Clowns can fit in any car.

Okay. But hurry!

Heya, Waggles! Whoa!

Ooh-hoo-hoo!

-Whoa!
-Oh! Oh, dear!

Wanna come to Tag's car show?

-[honks]
-Great!

But don't forget the ladder!

[honks]

-[laughs]
-Oh!

Cheddar Biscuit,
you have to end this show

so we can get to my show, remember?

Sorry. That always happens with ladders.
It's a clown thing.

Are you sure Waggles and the ladder
are going to fit?

[Cheddar Biscuit]
Only one way to find out.

[applause]

Okay, we lost a few minutes,
but I know a shortcut.

Oh! And look, we can use
my Barker Buggy Paws-Free Drive.

My car drives itself. Even through a maze.

Tag, this car is incredible.

What can I say? I'm a Go-dog.

One stop is fine.
But we can't lose any more time.

The car show is tonight only.

I can't wait for your car show.
It's gonna be... Bowwowzo!

[tires screech]

"Bowwowzo"?
Is that clown-talk for "awesome"?

Nope. It's my friend, Bowwowzo!

And Wowbowzo! They're clown twins.

You guys wanna come
to my sister's car show?

You won't believe all the amazing things
her car can do.

-[whistles]
-[whistles]

Okay, but you gotta move faster
than the last time,

so we don't miss the car show.

-Don't worry, Tag.
-[honks]

I'll put some honk in their step.

-[honking]
-[honking]

Heya, guys!
Thanks for leaving the light on for me!

[gasps] Another show?

-My lucky day just got luckier!
-[gasps]

[cheers]

But I think I'm gonna sweep it up.

[all laugh]

[all laughing and applauding]

Cheddar Biscuit... this isn't faster!

Sorry, Tag.
That always happens with spotlights.

I know. It's a clown thing.
But now we have to go.

Don't worry, Tag. No more clowns.

-Are you sure?
-Yes.

Unless we run into more clowns.

Great! Wait, what?

[Cheddar Biscuit]
Hey! It's Boingles!

Can Boingles come too?

[tires screech]

[beeps]

Oh!

[tires screech]

[honks]

Soppy!

[beeps]

[beeps]

Yay!

[whining barks]

Struggles!

[beeps]

That's it, right? No more clowns?

Yeah, sorry for slowing you down, Tag.
This is a clown kind of town.

It's okay, because we're almost
at the speedway,

and I finally get to show everyone
my Barker Buggy.

Yep. It's your night, sis!

So, no more stops and no more clowns.

Except for Cannon Bow and Cannon Wow!
The Cannon Triplets.

Hey, guys!

[Tag] Triplets?

But there's only two of them.

The third one is Cannon Kapow!

The Cannon Triplets are the best!

And no one's gonna love seeing
your car in action more than them.

[male announcer] Ladies and gentledogs,
the Pawston Car Show is about to begin!

Cheddar Biscuit, the show's starting.

It's going to take him forever
to get down here.

Don't worry. It's Cannon Kapow!

Here he comes!

Catch him, guys.

And there he goes!

[Cheddar Biscuit]
Oh, no! He overshot the net!

Don't worry.
I won't let that clown hit the ground!

[tires screech]

Hop in, guys!

[horn honks]

What do we do now?

We bring that clown down.

Now, Cannon Clowns!

[tires screech]

Tag, your car saved Cannon Kapow!

You've earned a clown salute.

[honks and squeals]

[squealing continues]

[honks]

Thanks, Cheddar Biscuit.

But let's save the honks
until after the show.

Sure thing. Go, Tag, go!

[tires screech]

[Tag]
Pawston Car Show, here we... Wait.

Where is everyone going?

Oh, the car show is over.
You just missed it. [chuckles]

It's over? I missed the car show?

I'm really sorry, Tag. I didn't mean
to make you miss the show, but it...

I know. It's a clown thing.

Wait, that's it. A clown thing!

Clowns, it's showtime!

Another show?

My lucky day just became a lucky night!
[laughs]

Seriously, Cheddar Biscuit?
Another clown show?

Nope. It's the Tag show, tonight,
remember?

Waggles, raise it up!

Bowwowzo and Wowbowzo, light it up!

[onlookers] Ooh!

Struggles! Boingles! Blow it up!

[dog] Oh! Look at that!

Oh, it is my show.

Aw. Thanks, you clowns.

And it's not done.

Ladies and gentledogs,

step right up to see the one, the only,

the amazing Tag Barker

and her Barker Buggy!

Take it away, Tag!

[applause]

Oh, yeah, yeah!

[tires screeching]

[tires screech]

[beeps]

[all gasp]

[cheers and applause]

[beeps]

[honks]

[cheers and applause]

Ready for the big finale?

Yep. And I've got a great idea.

Now, Cannon Triplets!

[all gasp]

Don't worry, folks.
The Bow-Wow Bouncer is on the job.

-[tires screech]
-[onlookers cheering]

[onlookers gasp]

[beeps]

[cheers and applause]

-That was wonderful.
-What a show!

Hi, Grandmaw and Grandpaw!

Thanks, Cheddar Biscuit.
You made my night.

I guess being a great sister
is a clown thing, too.

Yeah!

[honks]

-Biscuit?
-I'd love one!

[beeps]

[Grandpaw] So would I.

-Mort.
-I can't help it.

A great show always makes me hungry.

[chomps]

[both laugh]

[engine revs]

[tires screech]

See you at the finish line!

[tires screech]

[Tag]
"Keys to Victory."

I can't believe the not-yet cadets
get to sit in the front row

of a Sam Whippet race!

Uh, pretty sure we can sit
anywhere we want.

We're the only ones here.

And since the race
doesn't start until tonight,

I guess we're the opening act!

No. We're here to watch
Sam do his warm-up laps.

Sam's race car will be zooming by
any second.

So, don't blink or you'll miss it.

[clattering]

[Sam grunting]

Wow. He's really zooming.

Am I allowed to blink now?

Good morning, not-yet cadets.

Come and join me on the track!

You're probably wondering why
I'm pushing my car and not driving it.

[whispering]
How does he know what we're thinking?

Well, I've lost the key
that starts my race car.

I've looked everywhere at the speedway
and it's definitely not here.

-Did you look in the car?
-Yes.

-Did you look by the snack stand?
-Yes.

Did you look in your mustache?

First place I checked.

I found a ham sandwich. Mmm.

But no key. [chomps]

So, change of plans for today.

We're having a Race Cadet Challenge!

[horn honks]

[all gasp]

Do we get to race race cars?

No! You get to find my key.

But first, let's check the leaderboard.

Since Frank and Beans
won the pedal car challenge,

they're in the lead.

[both chuckle]

But it's still anyone's game
to become the next Race Cadets!

The team that finds the key
will get a point.

What if no one finds the key?

No big deal.

I just won't be able to start my car,
which means I'll have to forfeit the race,

which means I'll lose for the first time
in the history of my racing career.

[gasps] I was wrong.

This is a big deal!

[gasps] What are we waiting for?
We don't want Sam to lose!

Go, dogs, go!

So, where are we going?

Okay. You know how I'm like
the biggest Sam Whippet fan ever?

You are?

[chuckles] Just kidding.
You know everything about him.

Exactly. So, I know what
he does every day.

If we do what Sam did before he went
to the speedway, we'll find his key.

I'll drive, you navigate with this map
of the places Sam goes every day.

Okay, so take a right up... here!

Sam has breakfast every morning
at the Big Bowl Diner.

So, maybe he lost his key there.

[tires screech]

Mustache? What's this for?

To think like a Whippet,
you have to look like a Whippet.

Oh, boy. I'm getting buttermilk pawcakes
with extra syrup...

I already ordered for us.

If you want to think like a Whippet,
you have to eat like a Whippet.

Two Sam Whippet specials.

Raw steak, raw eggs, burnt toast.

-[sniffs] Ew!
-[sniffs] Ew!

This is Sam Whippet's table.

So, if he left his key in the diner,
it's gotta be here.

Let's search the seats.

[toy squeaks]

Find anything?

Just this mustache comb,

a copy of Tire and Track Magazine,

and another ham sandwich.

[sniffs] Ugh!

I found Frank and Beans.

[chomps and licks]

Oh, hi, other team!

Guess they had the same idea we did.

And there's no key here, so let's roll.

[chomps]

This toast is really chewy.

Well, Beans, you're eating the menu.
Again.

The Big Bowl was a bust. Next?

After breakfast, Sam Whippet always gets
some exercise at the Ruff and Tumble Gym.

So, let's push it.

[grunting]

[grunts]

[grunting]

I can't do it!

Can't we just look for the key
without exercising?

Sam might have lost the key
during his workout routine.

If you want to think like a Whippet,
you've got to sweat like a Whippet.

[whistle blows]

You wanna sweat like a Whippet,
less talk, more lift.

[whistle blows]

Sorry, Beefsteak.

And thanks for teaching us all the things
in a Sam Whippet workout!

[grunts]

No key down here.

[both grunting]

No key up here.

[both grunting]

No key here either.

-Whoa!
-[crash]

Oh, Sorry, Scooch!

It's okay. No key over there either.

I guess the key's not at the gym.

[grunts] But guess who is at the gym!

I can't... [panting] keep going!

[panting] The show must go on!

-[groans]
-[whistle blows]

-That workout was a waste.
-And exhausting.

My arms are so sore
I can barely lift this crayon.

Ow! See?

So, where to now?

It's race day. Sam always goes
to the groomer before a big race.

So, we're going to His and Furs Groomers.

Yes! Also, ouch! So sore.

We looked everywhere in this place,
and still no key.

[Scooch]
Yeah, but our mustaches look amazing.

Thanks, Hambonio.

The race starts soon.

If we don't find the key,
we'll lose the challenge.

And if no one finds the key,
Sam will lose his race.

What do we do?

Hmm...

[gasps] We do that!

We carry a ladder?

Instead of working against each other,
the teams should work together.

Like those dogs over there.

Huh. Why didn't I think of that?

Probably because
you didn't see the ladder.

What do you say?

Yeah! Let's do it!

-[all cheer]
-Oh, hi, guys.

Nice 'staches.

Okay. We know Sam didn't leave the key
at the diner, the gym, or the groomers,

which means it's at one
of his other favorite places.

The beach, the party tree,
or the grocery store.

Well, the beach sounds nice.
Let's all go there.

No, the grocery store.

I see Sam there whenever
I'm getting cream pies for my circus act.

Guys! This isn't working together.

We need to get organized.

You guys take the beach.
You hit the party tree.

I'll search the grocery store
with Scooch.

Everyone meet back at the speedway.

Go, dogs, go!

[Gilber] Found it! Yeah!

Ta-da!

Found it!

Yay!

[bird chirping]

Found it!

And I found my new favorite cereal,
Goat Bran.

It's made by goats.

[tires screech]

[all] We found the key!

Wait, we all found keys?

Three keys? What do we do?

[male announcer]
Five minutes till race time.

Five minutes? What do we do?!

Relax. We'll test the keys
and see which one works.

Okay. We only have to test three keys.

[panting]
Guys, I found a whole bag of keys!

Beans, what have you done?

Oh, no. You went to the key store.

Yeah! They have a bunch of keys!
And I had a bunch of coupons.

Beans, please put the keys down.
Nice and slow.

Yeah, those aren't Sam Whippet's keys.

They're not?

Oh, well then, I better make sure
they don't get mixed up

with those keys on the ground... Ooh!

[announcer]
Four minutes till race time.

Racers to the starting line!

[engines revving]

Oh, no. So many keys, so little time.
What do we do? What do we do?

Whoa! So many mustaches.
It's like looking in a bunch of mirrors.

So, not-yet cadets, did you find my key?

But that's too many. Which one is mine?

We're about to find out.

Come on, guys, let's test 'em!

[Tag] No, wait, we need to...

[grunting]

Guys, we have to work together.

We can't all try the keys
at the same time.

So, we're gonna take turns
and test the keys one by one.

Frank, you're first.

The keys. Beans, the keys. Please.

Ooh, oh, ooh, right! [chomps]

[announcer]
Three minutes to race time!

We've got to speed up.
Guys, let's make a relay!

Scooch, pass it to Beans.

Serving key lime pie.

[announcer]
Two minutes to race time!

Racers, start your engines!

[engines revving]

Let's get this line moving!

[announcer]
One minute to race time!

Last one!

Last one's the charm. I hope.

You know what? Tag, you try it.

Me? Why?

Because we would never have found any
of these keys without you leading the way.

Thanks, Gilber.

[engine starts]

[all cheer]

Which means Tag's team gets the point!

Great leadership, Tag.

And thanks for finding my key.

You were the star, sis. You earned it.

Uh-huh, I guess... Yeah, that's right.

[announcer]
On your marks, get set...

Go!

[tires screech]

Go, Sam, go!

Hang on, we didn't update the leaderboard.

Now, Tag and Scooch have a point,
just like Frank and Beans.

Will Cheddar Biscuit
and Gilber be able to...

Sam! The race! Go!

Oh, right.
Uh, see you in the winner's circle.

[tires screech]

[tires screech]

[all gasp]

[all cheer]

Sam Whippet has done it again!

[tires screech]

Oof. Still undefeated...

but my mustache is a mess!

Thank you, Hambonio.
