| - This is the transcript for Welcome Back, Monty Don. (Setting:Central Park. The sun is shining and people are out walking their dogs and playing in the sun. Dodger and Charlie walk the park with Fagin) Charlie: It's always good to get out for a little bit, eh Dodge? Dodger: You said it, Dad. So any ideas 'bout what you wanna do? Charlie: (thinks for a moment) Well...let me think. How about you and me race each other round the park? Dodger: Up for it! Charlie: Ready? Let's go! Dogwalker: Stupid dogs! (takes off his shoe and throws it at Charlie) Dodger: (laughs) I can still beat you at this! Charlie: I'll make you eat your words! Charlie: Look, we are so sorry! It's just me and my boy... Retriever: (laughs) It's OK. Anyway, my name's Monty. Charlie: My name's Charlie and this is my son, Dodger. Monty: Pleasure to meet you both. I'll see ya around. My owner's waiting for me. Charlie: He seems kind. Dodger: Yeah. I can't help feeling I recognize him from someplace. Fagin: Come on, boys. Let's head back. I'm sorry about my dogs. They're kind, really. It's just that they're a little excitable. Dog walker: So they may be. But if this kind of incident happens again, I'll personally see to it that those mutts of yours are taken off the streets! (walks off in a huff) (Setting:Back at the barge. Charlie and Dodger walk in and the gang greet them) Tess: How are my two boys? Dodger: (laughs) Mom, we're fine. We were just in Central Park and... Charlie: (butts in) Me and Dodge played that game we used to, Tess. Ya know, where we see who can run the fastest and.. Dodger: And, funny story, we ran into some dog called Monty. Rita: Tess, who's Monty? Tess: He's an old friend of Dodger's. They used to play together as pups. Dodger: Ah, yeah. Now I remember. Young Monty: Dodger, you can't catch me! Young Dodger: We'll see about that! Charlie: These kids, I don't know where they get all that energy from! Monty's father: Well, kids will be kids. I mean, we were once like them. Tess: (laughs) True. Young Monty: So, Dodge, ya wanna do that some more next time? Young Dodger: Ya betcha, Monty Don. And this time...(he yawns and falls asleep) Tess: Well, I guess all that fun must've worn him out. We'd better take him home. Charlie: Ah yeah. Monty was a good kid. Rita: How come I never met him? Dodger: This was years ago, guys. And we used to be friends, until he left town. Tess: Please, just think of the pups! Monty's mother: I am, Tess! We're doing what's best? Charlie: (appalled) By moving halfway across the country?!? Young Monty: Dodger, look, I'm sorry. I'm leaving town. Young Dodger: But why? Young Monty: It's just-(sighs) We're moving away to somewhere in California or Florida. It's miles away, but I haven't really got a choice. I have to go. Bye. Dodger: I can't believe after all these years, he suddenly comes back. Tess: I wonder what he's doing back in New York? Dodger: Oliver, yesterday I met this dog called Monty. Me and him used to be friends when we were pups. After all these years, he comes back. Oliver: Wow, Dodger. I mean, this was years before you met me. Rita: And we don't know what he came back to New York for. Einstein: Maybe, he wants to see Dodger?
