Itchy started class and taught them about playing fetch, giving out the rules and regulations and that it wasn't just a game. All of the puppies listened to every word, even Vendella listened, even if she was bored out of her mind of him talking and telling them that fetch was more than just a game.

"You're not just gonna be fetching for sticks, oh, no, maybe even house slippers for the man!" Itchy continued. "Maybe the daily paper! It's up to you to get whatever your human needs when they need it!"

The puppies absorbed that knowledge, even if some of them were mostly thinking about and worried about the two absent students.

'Oh, brother, are they still worried about those two? Get over it already!' Vendella thought.

Colette was sleeping in Junior's room alone. She was trying to catch up on some sleep, but it was a little hard for her to.


The Pound Puppies got with Patch, ready to set their plan in action as Patch was having the same thoughts about Colette. He didn't just like her, he really did and truly loved her.

"Hey, you okay, little buddy?" Lucky asked the Dalmatian puppy, noticing his mind was somewhere else.

"Oh, uhh... I'll be fine..." Patch said softly, he couldn't help but notice the Brown house wasn't too far away from the Bluth house.

Lucky was worried, but he put it aside for now. "Alright everybody, let's go!"

"This is the moment of truth," Patch said. "Everyone is about to find out who Vendella really is."

"Got the camera?" Lucky asked.

"Check." Strudel nodded.

"Got the video footage?" Patch asked.

"Check." Strudel nodded.

"Then let's do this." Patch said.

They all moved in then.


Harold came in the backyard and threw sticks, softballs, and Frisbees for the puppies for fetching practice.

"Be sure to bite down hard when you catch one, kids!" Itchy advised. "You'll never truly catch it unless you bite down!"

"Perfect, looks like they're going to be learning how to catch." Patch whispered.

"Ah, Puppy School... The fond memories of youth..." Niblet sighed. "The food, the new friends, the food, the lessons, the food, the food, the socialness, the food... Uh, am I forgetting something?"

"The food?" the others asked jokingly.

"That's it!" Niblet smiled to them.

It was now time for the plan to be put into action.


Cherry was drumming her fingers on her desk top as she was sitting against her will, surrounded by idiotic students while the teacher tried to control them. Suddenly Forte came into the classroom and whispered to the teacher.

The teacher turned and looked to the girl. "You have an appointment, Miss Butler."

Cherry didn't even hesitate, she gathered all her things, lugging her backpack behind her and walked down the hallway with Forte.

"Do you know what class Atticus has right now?" Forte asked her as they were going down the hallway.

"Why are you here?" Cherry ignored his question.

Forte did the same to her. "What class does Atticus have right now?"

"He's in Math," Cherry explained, then asked. "Why, what's going on?"

"I know where Patch is..." Forte said to her.

"You pulled me out of class for that?" Cherry slightly narrowed her eyes at him.

"And a certain evil puppy is about to exposed for who she truly is now come on we got to get Atticus," Forte said. "Now if your finished with your questions, we have to go and get him."

Cherry rolled her eyes at him, but followed.

"Wait out here..." Forte told her before knocking on the classroom door.

The teacher went to open the door. Cherry looked away lazily as she waited.

"Yes, can I help you?" the teacher asked.

"Mr. Fudo needs to come to the principal's office... It's urgent..." Forte informed stoically.

The teacher nodded, then turned to the class. "Atticus..."

Atticus felt busted, he gathered his things and walked out of the classroom as the door shut behind him. "Am I in trouble?"

"No, now come along." Forte said, taking them down the hallway and out of the school.

"Isn't this illegal?" Cherry asked as they were leaving the school and not going to the principal's office.

"Do you two want to see Patch again or not? Forte asked.

"Wait, how do you know that Patch ran away?" Atticus asked with a smile. "But more importantly, you found out where Patch is?"

"Just come with me..." Forte told them. "And you're not telling your parents that I let you do this..."

"ILLEGAL!" Cherry yelled out as she followed them out.

"I had to get you out of there," Forte glanced back at her. "You were getting more gray hairs than me!"

"I can't help it if I have classes with a bunch of idiots." Cherry grumbled.

"Let's just get going and quit complaining, Cherry." Atticus said.

"I'm not complaining, I'm just pessimistic." Cherry mumbled.

Forte held them close and then an officer walked by. "WHY AREN'T THOSE KIDS IN SCHOOL!?"

Forte raised his hand and wiggled his fingers slightly.

"I'm on break... You handle it..." the cop said in a trance, then walked away to get a box of donuts and a cup of coffee.

"When are you gonna teach me how to do that?" Cherry glared up at him.

Forte didn't answer and took them behind the Bluth family fence where the puppy school was held just as the Pound Puppies were off to put their plan in action.


In the Brown house, Colette couldn't take being away from Patch any longer, while Elizabeth was feeding Junior, she just went out the kitchen doggy door and decided to run away herself.

She just couldn't take it anymore, she loved Patch with all her heart and if he was going to run away, then so would she. But she wouldn't get far as soon as she would catch Patch's scent. Patch did catch a familiar scent, but he had to focus right now on the plan. Colette kept searching as she wandered the streets alone, if her father could do it, why couldn't she?


"I told you all, now stop thinking about him so much!" Vendella scowled to the other puppies after Itchy had to come inside when Harold and Kate called for him. "Patch is never coming back! I'm the alpha dog now! SO QUIT IT!"

"I don't think so!" Angel sneered, about to fight her, her inner junkyard dog coming back to haunt this spoiled pooch.

"Yeah! You've done nothing but bully us!" Danielle sneered, wanting to fight her as well.

Scamp growled, protective of both Angel and Danielle. Copper jumped in and growled in Vendella's face, but she just rolled her eyes.

"You'll never be a real hunting dog," Vendella spat at him and shoved him back. "You're friends with a fox for Gabriel's sake!"

"You take that back!" Copper demanded.

"HA!" Vendella had a snooty look. "Never... Just like Patch is never coming back!"

This caused for all of the puppies growl at her and really want to make her pay.

'Oh, Vendella, I wouldn't keep acting snooty if I were you.' Patch thought as they put the plan into action.

"Now?" the others asked.

"NOW!" Lucky called.

Vendella ignored their growls, not finding them to be any threat, but she did hear Lucky's voice. "Who's there?" she turned around, yipping slightly. "SHOW YOURSELF TO VENDELLA DEVIL!"

"Sounds like someone's in trouble." Scamp smirked.

Lucky came out first.

"Wow, it's Lucky of the Pound Puppies!" Copper gasped.

"Don't be stupid," Vendella scoffed. "They're just a myth..."

"I don't think so, little lady and you're in a heap of trouble." Lucky looked firm to Vendella.

"Oh yeah, how's that?" Vendella rolled her eyes.

"We got you on camera!" Patch jumped next to Lucky.

The other puppies gasped. "PATCH!"

"Yep, I'm here and we have a little show called Evidence." Patch said.

"Oh, cool!" Danielle piped up. "When's that gonna be on TV?"

Everyone rolled their eyes slightly at Danielle, but they listened to Patch.

"Who're gonna show that to anyway?" Vendella darkly smirked. "I'm a DeVil, we're all the same!" she then muttered low under her breath. "Except for that pesky older sister of Jackson and Ivy..."

"Oh, you'll soon see." Patch smirked and then nodded to Lucky.

Lucky nodded back.

"You're all fools!" Vendella roared.

Then the door bell rang.

"Right on cue." Patch said.


Harold answered the door. "Yes, may I help you?"

"Um, yes, I have something that you, your wife, your daughter, your dog, and any other animals you might have here that you all must see," Niblet said in his human disguise. "May I come in?"

"You're gonna have to wait a little while for little Anne-Marie, she's still in school, but will be home in a bit." Harold informed.

"Very well... May I sit down?" Niblet asked.

"You may..." Harold let the stranger in, very curious of him.

Kate was getting ready to pick up Anne-Marie from school now, she was curious of the stranger, but maybe her questions would be answered after picking Anne-Marie up from school.

Niblet was able to sit down on a chair even if he was a dog. 'Going as planned so far, just don't mess up and that evil puppy will be revealed for who she is.' he thought.

"Harold, I'm getting Anne-Marie now." Kate called before leaving.

"Alright, dear!" Harold called back as she left, then smiled. "Are you new in town, sir?"

Kate walked out the door and noticed the other Pound Puppies such as Lucky, Strudel, and Squirt. "Hm... Must be some new puppies in town..." she murmured to herself as she got to the car and got to drive to the elementary school.

"No, I've always been in this town I just haven't been social, but I won't be staying in town long, I'll be moving, just don't ask me where to or when." Niblet said in his disguise.

"Ah okay..." Harold nodded, totally fooled.

Atticus really wanted to get Patch then and there, but Forte told him to wait.

It felt like forever, but Kate finally brought the car back with Anne-Marie in the back-seat. Kate then opened the back door after parking the car, picking up Anne-Marie's new baby sister and Anne-Marie jumped out, joining her new family. They then went inside together.

"Kate, this new friend of ours has something to show us." Harold told his wife.

"Oh?" Kate asked as she carried Baby Charlie in her arms.

"Yes and it's something that all of you including your dog and any other animals that you might have here must see." Niblet said in his disguise before showing a video tape.

The Bluth family was curious, but they gathered the puppies together.

"What's going on, Mr. Itchy?" Angel asked their teacher.

"I dunno, but it sounds important." Itchy shrugged as he sat on the floor with them.


Harold, Kate, and Anne-Marie watched the video tape that Niblet told them to as they sat and waited. They could see the Puppy School while Kate was inside and taking care of the house while Harold was at work, Anne-Marie was in school, and Charlie was in daycare. It was the first day, so Patch was there and everything was normal until they got to recess when Kate took Itchy for a walk in the park and gave the puppies a recess break.

"You all need to pay close attention to this scene." Niblet said in his disguise.

The family took note and paid attention. Vendella was barking to Patch, Harold and Kate couldn't understand it, but Anne-Marie could. Harold and Kate could make out though that Vendella was challenging Patch and pointing to the firetruck and the apartment building. Patch glared at her and lifted with his strength, shocking the human couple as the firetruck was flying through the air and crashed into the building.

Harold and Kate weren't sure, but they could sense the guilt Patch had into running away after Itchy told him to go home and Vendella was laughing evilly that he was gone and she could rule the school now. The video ended then and there.

Patch and Lucky looked from the window and smiled to each other from outside. Vendella whimpered as she backed up.

"Oh my poor puppy!" a little girl with a curly blonde wig in a purple dress seemed to suddenly rush into the room and picked up Vendella. "I'm so sorry... The bus was late and I had to help an old lady cross the street... And... And..."

"You have a bad puppy, little girl," Harold firmly told her. "You should have your parents send her to an obedience school."

"Wait a minute..." Patch notcied something off about this girl, he rushed in, jumped on the girl and removed the wig to show that she had black and white hair in low pigtails.

"IVY DEVIL!" everyone then realized who this little girl was.

Ivy patted her head and growled at the Dalmatian puppy. "Stupid puppy dog!"

Patch simply growled at her, already knowing of how evil she was just as evil as her brother and her aunt.

"Wow, I did not see that one coming." Lucky said, surprised at who the girl really was.

"This ain't over!" Ivy growled, she took out a doll, twisted its head and it turned into a jet plane, she got in it with Vendella. "YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE LAST OF US!" she roared as she set the jets and they took off.

Itchy blinked, very surprised with the little girl. "Wow... Well, I know someone who's expelled now!"

This made the other puppies laugh a little.

Patch came to Angel, Scamp, and Danielle. "Where's Colette?"

"She's at home, she couldn't come to school because she missed you so much." Angel explained.

Patch nodded and left, he then met the Pound Puppies and Atticus again. "I have to go, I'll see you guys later!" he then put his red collar back on and rushed down the road. "I HAVE TO FIND COLETTE!"

"Aw, how adorable..." Cookie smiled to little Patch as he set off.

"Oh and Atticus, after I find Colette, we need to find out how far the house is from Shelter 17!" Patch called out to his boy while running to find the puppy he loved.

Atticus nodded, curious of why that was, but let the puppy go.
