Synopsis
Pretending to be his TV hero Space Boy, Olie tries to get Spot to do wonderful tricks like Space Boy's dog does on TV. However, the more Olie tries, the more Spot stays Spot, doing what he does best: licking Olie's face, wagging his tail and biting his butt. As disappointed as Olie gets, ultimately, with a little help from Dad, Olie realizes that it's Spot's undying friendship that makes his four-legged friend special.
