I Love You Penny Proud
No. Can't help you.

Well, just like this.
Hey, I was eating that.
Oh, stop being selfish.
Hey, I was watching that.

Oh, by the way, son,

Oscar, get dressed.
It's time to
What is that smell?
I don't know. I guess
your kids need changing.
Oscar, why is Puff tied up?
And what have you
done to my babies?
Obviously, you
didn't read the memo.
Obviously, you
haven't read my memo.
Furniture shopping?
But I can't. Mama said
I have to watch Puff.
Since when did you do
what your Mama said?
Besides, you
don't even like Puff.
I hate spending money even more.
Good morning, everybody.
Why is Puff on lockdown?
Eww, and what is that smell?
That delightful odor is
brought to you by Oscar day.
Take a shower, funky
boy, we're going shopping.
Penny, you're going to have
to watch Puff and the twins
while your father and I go out.
But, ma, I have plans. My
friends are waiting for me outside.
Well, you can just take
Puff and the twins with you.
I'm sure they could
all use some fresh air.
Dang. Why do I always get
stuck watching everybody?
Well, would you prefer
watching everybody in the house
while you're on punishment?
Where's the stroller?
Okay, sir smell-a-lot get
upstairs, shower and let's go.
Read my lips, Trudy,
I'm not going anywhere.
I'm staying here in
all my smelly glory
and indulge in
food, drink and game
and that is final.
Touchdown!
Oscar.
You silly Americans.
This is not a real
television set.
Well, you're going to
get a real beat down
if you don't put that game
back where you found it.
Oscar.
Trudy, this better be good,
'cause it's a close game.
Anyway, what type of wood do you
think would look good in our house
oak, maple or mahogany?
Cheapest.
Come on, Oscar
I think this is a decision
we should make together.
- Why?
- Because this armoire costs $2,500.
Oh, I can make this decision
myself. We're not getting it.
You're not the only one
that works in this family.
I don't need your permission.
Then why am I here?
Okay, we'll take it.
You have made a
wonderful selection.
You have impeccable taste,
madame in some things.
We can make the delivery
in two weeks. Is that okay?
It should be.
Oscar, what do you think?
Oscar.
Because of y'all I'm
missing out on all the fun.
Penny!
We could use your help.
They're wiping us out.
Guys, you know I want to but I
have to watch the twins and Puff.
Look, Proud, baby's kids
and snoopy will be fine.
We need more firepower.
- Ow!
- Huh?
Yeah.
Did we mention Omar
asked about you?
For real?
Hi, Omar.
What's up, uh uh?
Penny.
Yeah.
Penny, yeah. Hi.
I'm cool. What's
with the white flag?
Do you surrender?
Nah, I just wanted to
get y'all at close range.
Oh, no, it's on now.
Work me, Billy. Work me.
Are you ladies tired
of getting crushed?
You're never going to win.
Looks like y'all
could use some help.
Ow! Ow! Ow no, don't do it.
That wasn't nice.
You scared them away.
Yeah, just when
it was getting fun.
Yeah, why did you do that?
For the money. Now, pay up.
Let me get my purse.
It's in the stroller.
What stroller?
The twins! They're gone!
Oh, man, you in big trouble.
I told you not to play.
Someone get
sticky! We need help!
I'm so excited.
I cannot believe in two weeks I'll
have my own, custom-made armoire.
Thanks for coming
with me, honey.
Heh, heh, well, you know,
anything to make my baby happy.
Really?
So that means you'll finally
take that pottery class with me?
No.
Look at those stupid
kids on that bridge.
Some parents, I swear
they don't have a clue.
I wish that was
my child over there.
You got your wish,
Oscar. That is Penny.
Penny!
Okay, now when I grab
them you pull me up.
No, I'll grab them,
you pull me up.
They're my brother and sister.
Cool with me, Xena.
- What's going on here?
- Oh! My babies!
My babies!
What the?
- Where is Penny?
- Down there.
She's got them. Everybody pull.
I think we got it.
There we go.
I lost Puff! I lost Puff!
Puff.
Don't worry,
Penny, he'll be okay.
The river stops just a
quarter of a mile down.
Oh, Puff
Suga Mama, you might want to
put this cold compress on your eyes.
They're looking a
little red and Puffy.
Ah! Puffy!
Come on, Suga Mama,
let me fluff the pillow.
Whaa! Puff!
But I said fluff, not Puff.
Whaa!
Puff!
Mama, Felix and I have plastered
the entire neighborhood with posters.
I'm even offering a
reward for his safe return.
We'll find him. Nothing motivates
people more than money.
This is quite generous, Oscar.
$1,000 reward?
$1,000! Felix, I
said ten dollars.
Nobody would even read
that poster for ten dollars.
If you want Puff doggie back
you know you got to
put up Puff daddy money.
What? What'd I do?
Look, Mama, I know it
doesn't look good right now
but trust me, we
will find Puffy him.
Trust you? Is that a joke?
Trusting you is the
reason my angel is missing.
But it wasn't my fault
I just hope my baby's
somewhere safe
and dry.
Everything will be
okay, Suga Mama.
You know you can stay here
until we find you know who.
Mama, I'm really sorry
about what happened.
Whatever.
Thanks for letting me sleep
in your room tonight, Penny.
Just couldn't stand the thought
of going home without my baby.
I don't know what I'm
going to do without him.
Did you know Puff and I slept together
every night for the last six years?
No, I didn't know
that, Suga Mama.
I can't believe your
daddy was so careless.
I know he didn't like Puff
but that's no reason to just
let him wash down the drain.
I should have asked
you to watch Puff.
He likes you.
Don't worry, I'm
sure we'll find Puff.
I sure hope so, baby
because I won't be
able to sleep a wink
until he's back in my arms.
Suga Mama
- Puff
- I have a confession to make.
I'm so sorry about
what happened today.
I tried to save him, but
Anyway, wherever he is.
I hope you will keep
him safe and warm.
So when are we gonna eat?
Good things take time.
We must not rush it.
Is that chicken?
No. The other white meat.
Pork?
No. The other white meat.
I'm hungry. We eat now.
Oh, bobatumbe!
Oh, bobatumbe!
Oh, bobatumbe!
Lost dog hot line.
How much is the reward?
- Ten dollars.
- Ten Hello? Hello?
They hung up.
Oscar, face it, ten
dollars isn't enough.
Then I guess we
won't be finding Puff.
I bet this is you know who now.
Talking about ten dollars wasn't enough.
I knew somebody needed ten dollars.
I know I need ten dollars
Hey, dawg, I found ma's dog.
Bobby, that's a duck.
Are you sure?
If it looks like a duck, walks like a
duck quacks like a duck, it's not a dog.
You're right, y'all.
It's dinner. Dinner ♪
Dijonay, that is a cat.
I know that. How much
are you paying for cats?
Mr. Proud, you're looking
quite dapper this evening.
I'm here for the reward.
Where's Puff?
Oh, you want the dog?
So that's how that works.
Zoey, none of
these dogs are Puff.
I know. I got them
from the shelter.
I figured since you lost Puff
maybe you might want
to adopt one or two
I have the answer to
Suga Mama's dog problem.
It's called st-twelve.
Thanks, sticky, but suga
Mama wants the real Puff.
Can the real Puff give
you real-time stock quotes
scores to all the games
and the jet beauty of the week?
Beauty of the week?
Let me see that.
Good-bye, sticky.
Well, baby, you know
you're my beauty of the week.
I better be your only beauty.
I can't believe it.
Where'd you find him?
In the alley.
Now, drop the cash.
I believe you owe
us one-triple-o.
I believe you need to
drop some of those "o's."
The reward is ten dollars.
Okay, we'll take the ten
and let you owe us the rest.
My baby! You found my baby!
Okay, Proud, you got the dog.
Now, how about that cash?
Puff, you stink.
Smell like you been
living in a garbage can.
What the?
Give me my money back.
That's okay, Suga Mama.
If Puff doesn't come back
I'll take care of you.
Oh, bobatumbe
Oh, bobatumbe.
Oh, bobatumbe.
Oh, bobatumbe, oh, bobatumbe.
I sure hope Puff
comes home soon.
So do I.
I'm done, Suga Mama.
You're a sweetheart, Penny.
If Puff never returns
at least I have you.
Would you mind cleaning
Suga Mama's teeth, baby?
Ugh.
Shoo, shoo, go away,
there are a lot of people here.
No wait!
He is marvelous.
He is perfect.
Just like a diamond
that was coal.
He will be a big star!
You gotta do something, Oscar.
Sugar Mama has
been here three weeks.
It's time for her to go.
I understand she's been
depressed but enough is enough.
What do you what me to do?
Just throw my poor Mama out?
Of course not, Oscar.
I would never ask
you to throw her out.
Show her out.
Drop bread crumbs, I don't
care just get her out of my house.
That's cold, Trudy.
Mama, Sugar Mama says she's
ready for you to file her corns.
That's it, Oscar.
That's the last bunion.
Either she goes, or I go.
It's your choice.
Look, for whatever it's worth
I think we owe Sugar Mama.
Let's not forget it's
our fault Puff is missing.
Let's get something
straight here.
You lost Puff.
No, you should
have never left him.
If you had just let it be
Oscar day like I had planned
none of this would
have ever happened.
But, no. You just
had to go shopping.
Yes, I had to shopping.
Stop it!
We're all responsible.
None of us cared about
Puff. I know I didn't.
None of us did, honey.
I've got to admit it.
As much as I can't
stand that dog,
he's the only one that
could put up with Suga Mama.
If he ever finds his way back
I'll treat him like
the true hero he is.
I'll let him sit in my
chair, eat my food
and watch his stories
anytime he wants.
Is this the Proud residence?
Who wants to know?
Obviously you don't want
your chest of drawers here.
No, I don't.
Mm, here's 20 bucks,
go put it back on the boat.
Oscar, what are you doing?
Uh, nothing, baby.
Just making sure the gentlemen
are treating your chifforobe.
Like the $2,000
house payment it is.
It's Puff!
Oh, I'm so glad you're back.
Mama, come here! Quick!
What do you want, child?
Can't I get any
sleep around here?
Puff!
Puff, is that really you?
Yes, Suga Mama, it's him.
Oh, my angel is back.
My angel is back.
Did you forget something?
Yeah, the $1,000 reward.
Wait right here.
Huh?
Oscar, have you seen my Puff?
Nope.
You see, today,
you're not my kids.
Your sister is not my daughter.
Your mother is not my wife.
Today, this big-screen TV
