lyrics

DAVID
(mispronounced, oblivious) Pahpitoe?

PEPITO
Woof.

CAMILA
Listen...
His name is Pepito!
Pepito!

CAMILA & PEPITO
Pepito!

DAVID
Got it. Puhpitoe.

CAMILA & PEPITO
Dios.

ANGIE
Wait! Hold up!
There’s an interview.
I have to screen you.
You have to be screened.

CAMILA
But we have chemistry!

PEPITO
Ruff!

CAMILA
Chemistry!

PEPITO
Ruff ruff!

ANGIE
Look.
You seem like a good person.
But a lot of good people let dogs down.
Love is not all a dog needs.
Love is not always enough.
Our hearts do not hold every answer.
Our hearts do not know right from wrong!
Plus, we’re closed.

CAMILA
No!!!

DAVID
Please—This is all my fault.
I have never seen her like this.

CAMILA
I am so ready to adopt this dog!

ANGIE
Are you ready to put him first?
Are you ready to tell him no?
Are you ready to watch him fail?
Are you ready to someday let him go?

PEPITO
Woof?

ANGIE
We don’t deserve dogs.

ANGIE
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?

CAMILA
I feel so full
I could die right now!
My heart is so full,
I’m alive!
I am so
ready!

DAVID
Are we ready?
I’m sorry!
I’m sorry
I was late!
I can change!
Are we okay?

PEPITO
What is
“ready”?
I love you.
I can smell my
new life!
I am so
ready—ah-oo!

ANGIE
Are you ready—to show me your paperwork?

CAMILA
Yes – here is a copy of the lease,
bank statements,
references.

DAVID
…Wow!

ANGIE
This will take me a minute.
