Editing Pooh's Adventures of Air Bud/Transcript (section)

== Court war with Norman/Ending ==
(The scene changes to the court room where Judge Cranfield bangs his gavel. Josh, Buddy, Jackie, Pooh Bear, and his friends and all of the other citizens of Fernfield are at)

Bailiff: Next case: Snively vs. Framm.

Judge Cranfield: Is this one of your high-profile divorce cases?

Bailiff: No, sir, custody.

Judge Cranfield: Custody, Oh, custody. (sees Buddy) Holy Toledo. What is that dog doing in the courthouse?

Bailiff: That's the, uh, child, sir.

Judge Cranfield: That's a pretty ugly kid.

(The people in the courtroom laughed)

Bailiff: It's a dog.

Judge Cranfield: What?

Bailiff: The case is about a custody of a dog.

Judge Cranfield: Oh, okay. (notices Pikachu, Togepi, Scooby-Doo, Scrappy-Doo, Simba, Nala, Timon, Pumbaa, Iago, The Digimon, Charlie, and Itchy) And why are there four more dogs, a yellow rodent, an egg creature, two lions, a meerkat, a warthog, a bird, and other strange creatures?

Bailiff: They're not part of the case. Just the Golden Retriever.

Judge Cranfield: All right, I'll take it. But we have to do this seriously. I will not have my courtroom turned into some kind of a circus.

(Norman comes in dressed in his clown costume. Pooh Bear and his friends glare at him angrily. Judge Cranfield is shocked upon seeing him)

Judge Cranfield: Who the heck are you?

Norman Snively: Mr. Norman F. Snively. your honor. I'm the plaintiff.

Judge Cranfield: You look like an idiot.

Norman Snively: Why, thank you, sir. You see, I'm a clown by profession. Happy Slappy's the name. Clown and the Hound. And begging your humblest pardon, I thought it might be helpful to your honor. If I appeared here today in the guise most pertinent to the cogent and unequivocal stating my case.

Judge Cranfield: Whatever, whatever. You go first, clown.

Norman Snively: Well, the fact is, your honor. (points to Buddy) That dog's my property, and I have papers to prove it.

Judge Cranfield: Well, would you show them to me, please?

Norman Snively: Well, actually, your honor, I had papers to prove it. (pulls out a plastic bag with a burnt paper) But those kids... (points to Josh and the heroes) those young hooligans and their freaky pets. Because of their irresponsible and criminal activity is responsible for what you see.

(The citizens shout in disapproval)

Judge Cranfield: Order! (bangs gavel) 

Buddy: (barks)

Norman Snively: You see, sir. When I lost my dog the first time, it broke me up real bad. 

(Winnie the Pooh and his friends looked at each other and shook their heads disapprovingly) 

Norman Snively: When I lost him the second time, it darn near killed me. Heck's bells, your honor, all I wanna do is get Old Blue back. So, it can be him and me together just like it always was.

Josh Framm: (angrily) Why? So you can abuse him some more?

Ash Ketchum: Yeah just forget it, Snively! That's not going to happen!

Pikachu: (angrily) Pikachu!

Shaggy Rogers: Like, yeah, we're not gonna let you hurt Buddy again!

Scooby-Doo: (growls) Yeah! 

Tai: You are never meant to be a dog owner! 

Daphne blake: You're a disgrace!

Misty: You're disgusting!!

Tai Kamiya: You're despicable!!!

(Norman glares at them in annoyance)

Judge Cranfield: (sternly) That will be enough, children! (bangs gavel)

(Buddy barks.)

Norman Snively: I raised that dog from a puppy. I wouldn't harm a hair on his head!

Misty: (grunts) You're just a bully!

Pikachu: Pika!

Tigger: Yeah, Brunos, you're just making it up!

(The citizens moan as Judge Cranfield bangs his gavel)

(Buddy barks.)

Judge Cranfield: Bailiff, what was that?

Bailiff: The dog, your honor.

Judge Cranfield: Oh. 

(The citizens murmured.)

Judge Cranfield: (bangs his gavel several times) Order! Silence!

(Buddy barks again.)

Josh Framm: It’s the gavel, sir.

Ash Ketchum: Yeah, Buddy is reacting to the gavel, your honor.

Pikachu: Pika. 

Shaggy Rogers: Like, the gavel is making him bark, because of the loud noises. 

Scooby-Doo: Yeah. Loud noises. 

Judge Cranfield: What? Speak up! 

(Buddy barks.) 

Judge Cranfield: Bailiff! 

Bailiff: You just said, "speak". 

(Buddy barks again.) 

Judge Cranfield: Order! (bangs gavel) 

(Buddy barks again.) 

Scrappy-Doo: Stop banging the gavel! 

Simba: (roars) Stop banging the gavel or Buddy will continue barking! 

Judge Cranfield: Speak! 

(Buddy barks again.) 

Judge Cranfield: Will somebody suppress the dog?! 

Josh Framm and Norman Snively: (to Buddy) Shh. 

Judge Cranfield: What a day. What a day. (drinks a glass of water and proceeds with the case) Now, then. (to Josh) Young man, have you any evidence that this man abused your dog? 

(Josh didn't respond.)

Judge Cranfield: Did you ever see him hit the dog?

Josh Framm: Well, no.

Judge Cranfield: Then how do you know that dog was abused?

Josh Framm: Because Buddy doesn't like him. Buddy's my friend. I know what he's feeling. So, he knows what I'm feeling.

(Norman rolls his eyes.)

Fred Jones: Objection! I have evidence right here, your honor recorded on tape!

(Fred Jones plays the conversation Norman Snively was saying as he was putting Buddy in the kennel on the tape recorder.)

Norman Snively: (voiceover via tape player) Come on! Get up here! (yelling) I warned you. You had your chance, you flea-bitten mongrel. You're going to the pound! Do you hear me?! You're going to the pound! I hate birthday parties! I hate kids! I hate being a clown... I can't stand birthday cakes!......Yeah, Dog Pound. I've got a vicious dog. No, it's a horrible dog! It's a menace! I'm bringing him in now! No, I don't know where you are. That's why I'm calling ya. What? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know where it is. I could be there in 15, 20 minutes. Yeah. Well, no, I got a map here in my truck.

Fred Jones: See?

(Norman growls in anger at Fred while the whole entire court gasps in shock.)

Jury Member: My word!

Misty: (angrily) That's not all, your honor! I present the evidence: the rolled-up newspaper Mr. Snively used to beat poor Buddy and the chain he used to tie the poor thing to the yard! 

(Misty presents the rolled-up newspaper and the chain.)

Norman Snively: That proves nothing!

Daphne Blake: Objection, your honor! Not only did he physically abuse the poor thing, he verbally abused him by yelling at him.

(Plays the tape recorder of Norman yelling at Buddy, telling him to shut up, calling him a flea-bitten mongrel and a mutt, and threatening to beat him with a rolled-up newspaper.) 

(Norman is speechless.) 

Misty: Well, Mr. Snively, what do you have to say for yourself now? 

Jackie Framm: They're telling the truth, your honor. 

Judge Cranfield: Who's that? 

Bailiff: The boy's mother. 

Judge Cranfield: Oh. (to Jackie) It's okay, you may sp-- You may address the court. 

Jackie Framm: When we first moved to this town, um, my son was very unhappy and then he found Buddy here, but before that, he met Pooh Bear and his friends and uh Buddy is giving him something to look forward to. 

Delia Ketchum: I'm Delia Ketchum, your honor. (gestures to Ash) Ash Ketchum's mom. Not only did Ash befriend Josh, but he also befriended Buddy and also Pikachu and they became good friends ever since 

Jackie Framm: Delia's right, your honor. Please, please, don't take Buddy away from my son. 

Judge Cranfield: Mrs. Framm, Mrs. Ketchum, as far as this court is concerned, the dog is property unless you have evidence-- 

Delia Ketchum: That is not what she meant! Besides, you've already heard and seen that Pooh, Ash, and their friends already showed evidence that (points to Norman) Snively here was being cruel to Buddy. 

Jackie Framm: Exactly, your honor, all these people here did not come here because of a piece of property, your honor. They came here because of Buddy. He's part of this town. He's part of the team, and he's part of our family now, your honor. 

Norman Snively: Well, he's part of my family, too! He's like a son to me! 

(The crowd booed and jeered) 

Norman Snively: Oh, shut up!

Misty: That's a lie! He treats him like dirt!

Iago: You horrid excuse of an owner!

Judge Cranfield: Order! (bangs gavel)

Buddy: (barks)

Judge Cranfield: Quiet! (bangs gavel)

Buddy: (barks again)

Timon: (annoyed) Again with the gavel!

Pumbaa: Buddy will continue barking if you keep banging the gavel!

(Just then, Arthur Chaney comes in)

Arthur Chaney: Why not let the dog choose your honor? They say a dog is man's best friend. If that's the case, shouldn't the dog be able to choose who he wants to be friends with?

Judge Cranfield: Who are you? Barnum or Bailey?

Arthur Chaney: Arthur Chaney, your honor.

Judge Cranfield: Mr. Chaney, do you real-- (stammers in shock) Arthur Chaney? New York Knicks? '56? (smiles) Huh. I was at that Celtics game where you did the turnaround jumper at the buzzer. I-I spilled water all over my wife. 

(Arthur Chaney, Josh, Pooh, and everyone else in the courtroom started laughing) 

Bailiff: Your honor.

Judge Cranfield: Yeah? (realizes) Oh yes, yes, yes. (clears throat) (bangs gavel)

Buddy: (barks)

Judge Cranfield: Mr. Chaney. (gestures for him to proceed)

Arthur Chaney: Well, I've been thinking. Uh... this dog's what? Three? Four years old? That makes him an adult in our years. I say let Buddy decide.

(Pooh, Ash, Shaggy, and the heroes smiled with glee after hearing the idea as the crowd murmurs and Norman lifts his head up with wide eyes after hearing the idea, thinking it would be the only chance for him to get Buddy back)

Judge Cranfield: Mr. Chaney, during my 40 years on the bench, I've heard a lot of lamebrain cockamamie proposals. But this one... (smiles) I like.

(Later, everyone was outside)

Judge Cranfield: Move back! Everybody! Come along, now! Way back!

(Norman and Josh were standing on opposite directions while the heroes stood with Josh)

Judge Cranfield: Gentlemen! Stay on your spots! If you take one single step towards that dog, you’ll lose. You understand?

(The bailiff takes the leash off Buddy)

Judge Cranfield: Now. Begin calling the dog!

Norman Snively: Old Blue. Come to Daddy.

Josh Framm: Buddy. Come on, Buddy. Buddy come on.

Pooh Bear: Over here, Buddy.

(Josh and Snively keep calling to Buddy just as Buddy was walking towards Josh until)

Norman Snively: Blue hey! Come on Blue! Look what daddy’s got for you. 

(He takes out the newspaper he uses to beat Buddy with and hits his hand on it)

(Buddy goes up to Norman)

Ash Ketchum: Buddy, don't go near him.

Norman Snively: That's it.

Josh Framm: Buddy, no!

Shaggy Rogers: Like, get away from him, Buddy!

Norman Snively: (snaps) Get over here! (he hits the newspaper again)

(Buddy, having enough of his abuse, attacks him by lunging at him, biting his hand)

Norman Snively: (holding his hand) Ahhhh!

(Josh, Pooh, Ash, and the heroes were surprised and impressed by Buddy's actions)

Norman Snively: What are you doing?!

(Buddy rips up the newspaper)

Norman Snively: Stupid dog! 

(Buddy runs up to Josh and the heroes)

Norman Snively: Wait, where are you going?

Josh Framm: Yeah, come on, Buddy.

Ash Ketchum: Yeah, Buddy!

(Everyone cheered as Norman moans)

Judge Cranfield: By the power's vested in me, I award custody of the dog to Josh Framm. (bangs gavel) Case closed. (crowd cheers) Thank goodness. 

Norman Snively: You can't do this! That dog is my dog! I got pictures of that dog!

Ash Ketchum: Not anymore, he's not, Snively!

Shaggy Rogers: Buddy already made up his decision and that's that!

Judge Cranfield: (annoyed) Will somebody suppress that clown?!

Officer Jenny: We'll take it from here, your honor. (to her fellow officers) Book him, boys!

Brock: (lovestruck) Oh, Officer Jenny... she's got my heart under house arrest! She could lock me up and throw away the key...

(Misty grabs Brock's ear again)

Misty: I'd better haul you off before she does!

Brock: Ow! (×4) Not, the ear!!!

(The officers restrain Norman quickly as he tried one last attempt at getting Buddy back only to fail as the cops takes him away as he continues to protest. Winnie the Pooh and friends wave to Norman while smirking at him)

Ash Ketchum: So long.

(Misty sticks her tongue out at him)

Piglet: (sighs happily) I'm so glad it's over.

Scooby-Doo: Yeah, Buddy now belongs to Josh.

Tigger: I hope that Snively creep will receive a life term in prison without parole.

Rabbit: Yes, and there will be no probation for him.

Pikachu: Pika, Pikachu. 

Officer Jenny: No need to worry folks. Mr. Snively won't have probation because of his actions towards Buddy. So now he'll be going to Arkham Asylum in Gotham City, where a sick man like him belongs. 

Brock: Fine with us. Arkham Asylum is the right place for that creep.  

Simba: That's right. As long as Norman is locked up, he won't be bothering or hurting Buddy, anymore. 

Winnie the Pooh: I am so happy for Buddy. 

Shaggy Rogers: Like, me too. 

Ash Ketchum: Nothing or nobody is going to hurt Buddy ever again. (to Josh) And, Josh nothing or nobody is going to make you miserable ever again. 

Josh Framm: Yeah, you guys really made me happy since my mom, my little sister and I moved here. You're also my very first friends. And, Ash, you’re like a brother I never had. 

(Josh and Ash smile warmly and hug each other, then Josh hugs Winnie the Pooh and the others.) 

(The camera fades to black) 

Josh Framm: (voiceover) Hey, guys. You wanna play? 

Ash Ketchum Sure, Josh. 

Pikachu: Pika! 

Shaggy Rogers: Like, we love to. 

Josh Framm: Yeah, just like we always do. 

(Josh, Buddy, Winnie the Pooh and friends play basketball together)
