Mort: I guess I'll do it, but you can keep the treat.

Bone


Me: I have a busy day ahead. Better get to work!
Mort: I'm busy too.
Me: You're not supposed to have that. Chew this instead.
Mort: That's boring. I'm going to disappear and be quiet somewhere.
...
...
Me: What are you doing...?
Mort: Your shoes were all in pairs in one place. That's really inefficient. I've put one shoe in each part of the house so you always have access to a shoe.
Me: Thanks. Here, have a bone. Do some chewing so you will be relaxed and occupied.
Mort: Yay! A bone! I need to bury it somewhere.
Me: I'm not letting you outside.
Mort: I'll bury it in the carpet by the fireplace.
Me: Ok, tevs.
Mort: Oh no! You saw me. I'll bury it under my bed.
Me: I'm not looking.
Mort: Vikki...Vikki...VIKKI
Me: WHAT?
Mort: I'm burying my bone under my bed.
Me: That's fine! Good boy!
Mort: Oh no! You saw me! I need to find somewhere else to bury it.

Matchbox

Mort: I need this matchbox
Me: Nonononono hey! Wouldn't you rather play with your duck?
Mort: No
Me: How about your bone?
Mort: No
Me: Come on! Nice juicy bone right next to your nose!
Mort: No. The only thing that would please me right now is to chew this box of matches. All other toys pale in comparison.

Recall

Hera: Dog! What is your name?
Mort: "Mort, come". What's yours?
Hera: My name is "Hera! C'mon! *whistle* Where'd you go? C'mon! HEEEEEERA!".
Mort: Whoooa. You are GOOD at training humans.
