[referring to Zoe]
Enzo: [vocalisation over] It amazed me, the ability exerted by a creature as tiny as our little Zoe. A power she wielded over me besides, with no more than endeavour than the earth does the moon in its orbit. I was an integral effigy in her entertainment, leaping afterward tennis balls, and scrambling back to catch them, then dancing similar a four-legged clown to catch them again. I was and so immersed in her globe that I'd lose count of the weeks and months. And when she would tell her playmates that I was her large brother, my eye would neat with pride.

[after Denny has given upwardly custody of Zoe to Eve'southward parents]
Enzo: [voice over] The injustice was unbearable. First, Denny lost Eve, and now he would exist deprived of Zoe likewise. Denny struggled every bit the weeks passed. While I very much wish to be human, there is one advantage to existence a dog that I will miss.

Tony: Human being, I got to get me a dog.
Enzo: [vocalism over] Denny was prepared to gamble everything. Lose the case and he would lose Zoe. His breathing that morn struck me as unusual. Deep inhalations, quick exhalations. Information technology was a audio I recognized. It was the way he breathed merely before a race.
[subsequently Denny wins full custody of Zoe]
