Pons and Ned continue to look for a good pet for Ned.
Ned: Hey, Pons. The pet lady said these parrots're quick learners. Maybe I kin teach this'n ta ride a bicycle.
Pons: I think she meant that it learns to talk fast.
Ned: No kiddin'? Lemme check this here one out.
Ned walks up to a caged parrot and speaks.
Ned: My name is Ned.
Parrot: Awk! My name is Ned.
Ned: No kiddin'! Hey, Pons! This here parrot's name is Ned too.
Pons: I think he was just repeating what you said, Ned.
Ned: Let's see. Hey, Ned, what's yer name?
Parrot: Awk! My name is Ned.
Pons: Okay, Ned, I guess you're right.
Ned: I wish I could find me a talkin' dog though. That would be somethin'.
Pons: That WOULD be something, Ned.
Ned: I don't mean no genie-us like Mr. Peabody er that Family Guy's pup what wants to do people things. I'd settle fer a Scooby-doo or a Astro.
Pons: One of those is a Great Dane and the other a German Shephard. Do you have room for either of them in your house?
Ned: Well, you tell me, Cuz. If you had a talkin' dog, would you make room fer it?
Pons: Ya got me, Ned. I would find room for a talking dog. Plus I'd get an agent and make a billion dollars.
Ned: Well, ya prob'bly oughta try ta git that money whether ya got a dog er not, Pons.
Pons: Right, Ned. So -- you want a dog? It probably won't talk at all.
Ned: Maybe if I buy a puppy I kin git Ned the Parrot ta teach 'im how ta talk.
Pons: For real, Ned -- dogs can't talk. Mr. Peabody can't talk any better than he can time travel.
Ned: Time travel! Jeez Louise, Pons. I figure iffn I could time travel like a kid-na-gard-ner I'd be better'n most folks.
Pons: Okay, Ned. No time travel. No talking dogs. The parrot's name is not Ned.
Ned: You're bein' a bit neckativical there, Pons.
Pons: I'm sorry, Ned. You're absolutely right. Let's get you a dog, and we'll get Ned the Parrot to teach him how to talk, and let him watch Mr. Peabody and Sherman until he can time travel too.
Ned: I ain't sure whether Mr. Peabody is showing now. He might be on Hulahoop.
Pons: You mean Hulu?
Ned: Sure, Pons. HuLU -- hoop.
