[Scene: Green Screen. Super 'This preview has been rated PGG']

Announcer: (v/o) What's the biggest Superhero flick out this summer? Spiderman 2? No. Catwoman? Hell no. It's Underdog.

[Show a big picture of Underdog with the caption 'Underdog' underneath it. Snoop Dogg's head appears in the Underdog picture and he starts talking.]

Snoop Dogg: I hate to interrupt, but excuse me. Isn't that supposed to be spelt D-O double g?

[The 'Underdog' caption changes to read 'Underdogg'. Snoop Dogg smiles and nods. Snoop Dogg tune plays softly in background.]

Announcer: (v/o) It's the story of a simple shoe shine boy...

[Underdogg as shoe shine boy(nerdy with glasses etc.) is shining Guy's shoes.]

Guy: Nice job, boy. Here's a dollar.

Underdogg: (as shoe shine boy. Stands up and is angry. Right in Guy's face) Boy? Who you calling boy, you punk ass bitch!

Guy: I...I'm sorry...I...

[Underdogg sees Polly Purebreed and waves at her.]

Underdogg: (as shoe shine boy. To Polly Purebreed.) Shoe shine?

Polly Purebreed: I would but I'm wearing open toed heels...

Underdogg: (as shoe shine boy. To Polly Purebreed.) Well, how about I shine what shoe you got for a dollar and then shine your pretty little toes for free.

Polly Purebreed: Oh my, well...

Other Chick: C'mon Polly, we got to go or we'll be late. Nice try Mr. Shoe Shine.

[Exit Polly Purebreed then Other Chick who gives Underdogg a smirk.]

Underdogg: Beotch.

[Guy tries to exit screen.]

Underdogg: (as shoe shine boy) Did I say you could go?

Announcer: (v/o) A shoe shine boy who is trying to save the world...

[Cut to Simon in Cad in darkened area]

Simon: Ha ha Cad. It's my most brilliant plan ever. We'll stand under this sewer grate and take pictures of women's underpants as they walk over!

Cad: Uh boss. How is that gonna help us take over the world?

Simon: Just shuttup and keep taking pictures, that's how!

[Cut to shot of Underdogg with a criminal in a headlock. The criminal is wearing a mask and holding a bag with a $ on it so we know he's a criminal. He spots the sewer grate and notices a light flashing below as a lady walks over it.]

Underdogg: "Mercy, mercy me. Things ain't what they" seem to be. "Oh no."

[Cut to shot of Polly Purebreed and Other Chick walking along. Underdogg steps in front of them.]

UnderDogg: I'm gonna have to ask you to stop right there pretty lady. Something's going on down there that's really kinda shady.

[Underdogg removes the sewer grate and pulls Simon and Cad out of the sewer.]

Simon: Dammit. Foiled again by that blasted hound!

Cad: This is so embarrassing. I don't even like women's underpants.

Underdogg: Well, it's off to jail with freak one and freak two. Enjoy the rest of your day... (to Polly Purebreed) See you later boo.

Other Chick: Who was that?

Polly Purebreed: That was...*sigh*...Underdogg.

Announcer: (v/o) And like any good story, it's about love...

[Cut to scene with Underdogg (as shoe shine boy) standing in the foreground as Polly Purebreed has lunch with Jack Slick.]

Jack Slick: C'mon Polly why not let me come over tonight.

Polly Purebreed: I'm sorry I can't...I'm busy.

Jack Slick: With what, your cats? How many cats do you have again?

Polly Purebreed: Five...

Jack Slick: Ha ha ha that's so pathetic. You don't need five cats...what you need is one man. Me. Why stay home alone petting your kitty when I can come over and we can pet your uh kitty together...

[During Polly's next line Underdogg(as shoe shine boy) exits shot]

Polly Purebreed: Uh...well...it does get kinda lonely...but...maybe...I don't know...

[Underdogg enters.]

Underdogg: Hey punk, it's obvious you're trying to jack her. Save your breath, cuz this is one Polly that won't let you crack her.

Polly Purebreed: Underdogg. One second, I need to just take care of something.

Jack Slick: (to Underdogg) Listen you overratted mutt...

[Polly Purebreed pulls out some mace and begins spraying Jack Slick in the eyes. He screams and exits.]

Underdogg: Damn, sorry to interrupt but I thought I heard you yelp. But when all was said and done, I guess you really didn't need my help.

Polly Purebreed: No, but I'm glad you're here. Sit down.

Underdogg: Well, I should really go and that's no bull...but I'll sit awhile cause damn girl, "you're so beautiful".

[The two are about to kiss. A bubble appears above Polly's head. In it Underdogg as shoe shine boy appears and waves looking like a total nerdling.]

Polly Purebreed: (sad) I...I can't.

Underdogg: It's okay, no need to cry. I think I know the reason why.

[A bubble appears above Underdogg's head. In it Polly is making out with Other Chick.]

Underdogg: Damn, I need to change the station on my bad imagination.

Woman's voice: (v/o) Help, Underdogg!

Underdogg: (to Polly Purebreed) Later bitch.

[Exit Underdogg. Polly Purebreed sighs.]

[Cut to Underdogg flying through the air.]

Underdogg: (into camera) "Speed of lightning, roar of thunder". "Fighting all who rob or plunder." It's me, it's me, the Under-D-O double g. (makes weird symbol with his fingers). Lizzle my nizzle.

Announcer: (v/o) Underdogg the movie. Coming soon, yo.

[Fade Out to Snoop Dogg's 'Beautiful' song.]

[Lyrics in quotes are from Marvin Gaye's 'Mercy, Mercy me', Snoop Dogg's 'Beautiful', and the Underdog television show theme song respectively.]
