JINGLE
00:21Round 1: Fleas and JusticeINT. DEBATE STAGE — NIGHT
VICKY LICKY(calm, measured, perfect lighting) Good evening, citizens of Hollywoof! I’m Vicky Licky — and I’ll be moderating tonight’s sheriff debates. Let’s meet the candidates.
VICKY LICKY On my right — a local media star, full-time keyboard smasher, and proud self-declared “dog of the people”… Puppy Jay!
PUPPY JAY(grinning) Good evening, Hollywoof! Vote for me — or don’t. But I already ordered the sheriff hat, so it’s kinda happening.
VICKY LICKY And on my left — a former Miss Hollywoof, now a graduate of international police academy, returning home to restore order with grace and grit… Jane Dog!
JANE DOG(firm, polite) Thank you, Vicky. It’s an honor to be here — and to fight for a safer, stronger Hollywoof.
VICKY LICKY You both know the rules: Speak one at a time. No barking. No biting. And for the love of law — no licking the microphones…
VICKY LICKY First topic — public safety. Our streets are crawling with cat gangs. They terrorize miniature dogs… and spread fleas like confetti at a squirrel wedding. I speak from experience… What would you do on your first day as sheriff?
PUPPY JAY(confident, charismatic) I’d start with a special Paw-trol unit — teams of trained police dogs gently but firmly offering flea and tick treatment to every cat they meet. Not optional! Let’s call it… “mandatory cooperation.” With a tuna treat at the end! Because once a cat is flea-free — they won’t want to go back to their gang just to get infected all over again! We break the itch — we break the crime chain!
VICKY LICKY Jane?
JANE DOG(composed) That… was surprisingly… not a bad idea… (pauses, then shifts to a firmer tone) But let’s not confuse grooming with justice. (steps forward slightly) My proposal is simple: Instead of forcing cats into baths — let’s offer them real incentives. Any cat who voluntarily leaves a gang, completes treatment and agrees to be neutered — gets access to free shelter housing, guaranteed food support and even a reparenting program. (beat) Less risk. Less temptation to return to crime.
PUPPY JAY(interjecting, smug) And a massive hole in the budget — not just for the sheriff’s department, but the entire town!
VICKY LICKY(neutral, crisp) Puppy Jay — debate protocol, please! This isn’t a sidewalk rally!
PUPPY JAY(backing off, still grinning) Sorry, sorry!
VICKY LICKY(immediately, composed) Okay. Thank you, candidates. Before we break — one quickfire question. Some citizens say mail carriers act like they own the streets. Should the sheriff step in?
PUPPY JAY(confident, snappy) Absolutely! I love getting mail — especially toy deliveries — but I firmly believe doorbell ringing should be criminalized for mail carriers! It triggers barking, hyperactivity, and in extreme cases — falling off the couch!
JANE DOG(restrained, dry) Mail carriers are residents too. We shouldn’t treat them like intruders just because they wear vests and smell like envelopes. Instead of criminalizing routine behavior, we need to improve communication between carriers and households — clear boundaries, designated delivery hours. Let’s fix the system, not just punish the bark triggers.
VICKY LICKY(neutral) Thank you! We’ll now take a short break. Candidates may consult their campaign teams about Round Two strategy.
04:12Pawstradamus Break
JINGLE
PUPPY JAY(whispering) Pawstradamus! You there? I’ve got, like, two minutes. How did I do in the first round?
PAWSTRADAMUS(deep, echoing) The moon blinked thrice during your opening statement! My tail twitched exactly seven times. And a candle exploded! All signs… of excellence!
PUPPY JAY(grinning) Nice! I was so nervous! Jane is smart — like, scary smart! But she lacks charisma. That’s my edge, right?
PAWSTRADAMUS(ominous) The stars say… charisma alone may not be enough to defeat Jane Dog in Round Two! Her father former Sheriff John Dog trained her well… Perhaps it’s time to use… an ancient persuasion technique! Loud. Irresistible. Empty. Or LIE — for short!
PUPPY JAY(blinks) Wait — what does that mean?
PAWSTRADAMUS(leans in, eyes glowing) Promise everything. Explain nothing! Ha ha ha ha ha!
PUPPY JAY Like… free toys for all voters?
PAWSTRADAMUS(waves paw) Yes! Free toys. Free bones. Free universal grooming — no appointment needed!
PUPPY JAY And if they ask how I’ll pay for it?
PAWSTRADAMUS(stone serious) No one cares… You’re not the first political candidate I’ve advised!
PUPPY JAY(awed, closing tablet) You’re so wise, Pawstradamus… Well then. Let’s make some unreasonable promises!
05:37Round 2: L.I.E.
JINGLE
VICKY LICKY(returning, calm) Welcome back! You’re watching the sheriff debates — and we’re heading into Round Two. (brief pause, flips a card) This time… it’s all about the citizens!
VICKY LICKY The first question comes from a local seafarer, pirate shark… and certified legend of Jawpardy — Captain Jawbeard.
CAPTAIN JAWBEARD(growling) ARRR! The sea be turnin’ green — not from envy, but from waste! Factories dump their bilge into me beloved waters! Can a sheriff do anything about it… or are we doomed to swim in stink? ARRR!
PUPPY JAY(fired up, in LIE mode) Absolutely we can fix this! As sheriff, I’ll install eco-sirens along the coast — that scream whenever someone pollutes! And we’ll build a statue of me — as a heroic sheriff, paw raised, eyes shining — right in the middle of the sea! Not for vanity! As a warning! To scare off polluters with justice…
VICKY LICKY(raising brow) Puppy Jay. That was… Interesting… Jane?
JANE DOG(steady, firm) I can guarantee inspections of all coastal factories! If the dumping happens from the water — we’ll coordinate joint patrols with the coast guard. (pauses) Water is everything — so I’ll pressure the mayor to tighten environmental oversight, push for stricter factory inspections, and collaborate with marine enforcement to trace every pollutant to its source. No heroic statue! Just actual work!
VICKY LICKY Thank you, candidates. And thank you, Captain Jawbeard! And our final question for this round — we go live to Barktender!
BARKTENDER(stern) Hey. Real question. What are you gonna do about the illegal booze problem? There’s “Moonshine Toilet Water” on every corner of Hollywoof now. It’s dangerous. It’s illegal. And someone needs to do something — fast!
VICKY LICKY(nods) Thank you, Barktender. Puppy Jay — you first.
PUPPY JAY(fired up, glowing with confidence) We’re not just gonna stop “Moonshine Toilet Water” — we’re gonna end it! Forever! I propose we call in the one team brave enough to help… Justice League of Dachshunds! Top dogs. Special training. Superpowers! They’ll sniff out every bottle, every barrel — and take down every illegal distillery from Hollywoof! And all the money we seize from illegal sales? We’ll give it to the citizens. Direct. Immediate. Cash. Kibble. Chew toys! This isn’t just prohibition — this is economic justice!
JANE DOG(deadpan, blinking slowly) …Wow. Summon a superhero team… to fight bootleg toilet water? Is that really where we are now? Moonshine Toilet Water is illegal. And yes — we can fight it! Here’s what we actually need: Map and shut down production sites. Target distributors — not small users. Partner with public health teams to offer detox and recovery programs. And… don’t bribe voters with chew toys! This isn’t a cartoon. This is real life!
VICKY LICKY(stoic) Thank you, Jane Dog. And thank you… Puppy Jay… for at least trying to stay in this dimension. (beat) That concludes Round Two. You may now consult your campaign teams… Some of you… definitely should!
09:32Shark Intervention
JINGLE
PUPPY JAY(excited, tail wagging) Hey Shark! Did you see that?! I crushed it, right?! We’ve got this in the bag!
SHARK(stone-faced) Puppy Jay… are you kidding me? That was a disaster! You’re at rock bottom… You just promised to militarize a team of superhero dachshunds and build a statue of yourself? WHAT!? It’s like someone swapped you out between round one and round two.
PUPPY JAY(suddenly unsure) Okay but… come on… I was using the LIE method! Pawstradamus said it should work! But… maybe I’m just not as good at LIE as Pawstradamus… Oh no! How do I get back in the game?!
SHARK(sighs, folds fins) You’ve still got one round left! (calm but sharp) If you want to win — stop trying to impress yourself. Think before you speak. And stop making promises you can’t actually keep.
PUPPY JAY(freaking out) Wait, WHAT?! You mean I’m supposed to… keep the promises I made?! Why didn’t anyone tell me that before?!
10:33Round 3: Personal Attacks Begin
JINGLE
VICKY LICKY(calm, commanding) Welcome back! It’s time for our final round — where each candidate gets to ask one direct question to their opponent. (looks at both) You may speak freely… but remember the rules: No barking. And no biting.
Puppy Jay shifts nervously, adjusting his oversized tie. He’s clearly less cocky now.
VICKY LICKY Jane Dog — you’re up first.
JANE DOG(firm, focused) Thank you, Vicky. (turns to Jay) Puppy Jay — I’ve followed your career for a long time. And I have one simple question: What are you hiding?
JANE DOG(presses on) You say you’re “a dog of the people” — but your name keeps showing up in highly suspicious incidents: The Anubark Tomb break-in. The Roomba vacuum situation. Regular communication with the world’s most wanted hacker — Dinanimus. And recently… with the infamous and dangerous vampire Count Barkula. (turns to camera) Let’s take a look at a little something he posted earlier this week.
CLIP — Count Barkula’s video plays.
COUNT BARKULA(slow, ghoulish, sincere) Puppy Jay… I don’t know why you need to become sheriff. But I support you! I truly hope your campaign helps raise the funds so we can finally film that… legendary vampire interview!
JANE DOG(cool) So, Puppy Jay… Are you running for sheriff to bring justice to this town — or just to get some hype and money for your YouTube channel?
PUPPY JAY(visibly nervous, but still trying to smile) Okay… wow! Let’s go there! (sincere) First of all — I’m a journalist. And not a bad one I hope! My channel covers real issues happening in our town — and it shows all sides! Like these debates. Which I suggested to host on my own platform… instead of turning into one giant campaign ad. Yeah — Dinanimus, Barkula… and some of my other sources are not the cuddliest dogs in the park. But how else are you supposed to get the full story? I know that’s hard to understand for the daughter of a former sheriff, and the heiress to one of the most powerful families in this town. But sometimes to get the truth — you have to get your paws dirty! Like, really dirty! Like… up to your tail dirty!
JANE DOG(cold, unimpressed) You call yourself a journalist? Your channel is just another dogtube! You’re not a reporter — you’re a copycat of Micro Beast.
PUPPY JAY(offended, tail bristling) …Did I just break Miss Hollywoof 2024? You compared me to Micro Beast? He buried himself in kibble for ten million views — I risk my life to tell real stories! He makes content! I chase truth! There’s nothing we have in common! You’re just mad I’m more popular!
JANE DOG I’m mad because you’re unqualified!
They begin barking. Microphones distort.
PUPPY JAY & JANE DOG (barking indistinctly)
VICKY LICKY(dead serious, into mic) Security! We’ve got a situation.
13:45The Final Vote
Two massive bulldogs in black suits enter. Puppy Jay and Jane are separated.
JINGLE
VICKY LICKY(camera-ready, composed) The studio has calmed down. Voting stations across Hollywoof have officially closed! And in just a few seconds, we’ll know the outcome! (dramatic pause) Incredible! The public vote is split exactly 50/50! But what do the electoral votes have to say? (beat) We have the final tally…
VICKY LICKY(stunned) Unbelievable! Jane Dog wins the sheriff’s seat — by a single electoral vote! Our Congratulations!
JANE DOG Thank you, Vicky! Thank you, Hollywoof! Justice has prevailed. And I’m just getting started!
VICKY LICKY(camera-ready, dramatic) Still — knowing Puppy Jay, I wouldn’t be surprised if he runs for mayor next year! This was Vicky Licky — back to you, Puppy Jay!
14:40Final Bark
JINGLE
PUPPY JAY(softly, to camera) Well… it’s official! I’m not your new sheriff! And honestly? That’s okay! Because somewhere between the barking and almost licking the microphone… I realise something: I don’t need a badge! I’ve already got something way cooler! This show. This channel. And after tonight… I wouldn’t trade that for anything!
PUPPY JAY(perking up) Also — BIG news! Four brand new patrons just joined us: Thank you, NoNameGuy1313, Silja P., @gisellaferruzolamini and Elizaveta S., for joining us! And thank you, RedBooster123, for updating your tier! (dramatic beat — sponsor card on screen) That brings us to 43 out of 100 sponsors we need to hit our goal… …and finally send Vicky Licky to Romania for what has now become the most scandalous interview of the season — a one-on-one with Count Barkula himself! (leans closer, intense whisper) And only you can decide how this story unfolds: Will it be a smooth ride to Transylvania… or will I need to take out a high-interest loan from PawCreditBank to make it happen?
PUPPY JAY(desperate) Support us on Patreon or right here on YouTube! QR codes are on the screen. Links are in description.
PUPPY JAY(grinning) And don’t forget to send in videos of your pets to my email! They might just show up in next episode!

16:23Sheriff Jane Dog’s First Move
JINGLE
POST-CREDIT SCENE.
JANE DOG(confident, collected) Thank you, Hollywoof! I’m honored to serve as your new sheriff — and I promise to bring order and dignity back to our town. And I’m starting with an investigation into the number one disturber of the peace. Puppy Jay… this message is for you! As the great Wayne Gretzky once said during chasing the puck… “I’m coming for you.”
