Charlie is so lazy that he relies on futuristic gadgets, and because he is too lazy to clean up the apartment, he has inconvenienced everyone to the point where they have no choice but to have their New Years party at Carface's. He has a dream of being in the 23rd century where dogs are oppressed by the Great Deliverer. When not only is every other dog brainwashed by the Great Deliverer himself, and he turns out to resemble the mailman he barked at earlier (with a voice projector to make it sound like it was a lot of vicious dogs), Charlie regrets his laziness and calls a puppy to enlist everyone else under the promise of a T-bone, while Charlie does clean the apartment so they can have their New Years party. Also, he makes amends with the mailman by giving him a package (whose contents turn out to have roller skates in them).

Charlie, intending to try a brand of dog food called Happy Hound, does, only because it was tainted with a mutation chemical (thanks to Carface and Killer), he turns into a monster. Eventually, after Itchy has saved Charlie, the latter never wants to have anything to do with Happy Hound, not even to see it. So when Sasha apologizes to him for not believing the events, brings it out, and offers it, Charlie knocks it off her paws, to so much fury of Sasha that she ejects him.

Charlie is supposed to train three juvenile angels-in-training, but he messes up by training, military-style, them not to serve mankind, but to serve him (snacks, much to Itchy's dismay), so they do badly. Meanwhile, Carface and Killer operate a machine called the HeelBoy 2000 that will turn dogs evil and make them work for him, and even Charlie's attempted skills to whack the machine doesn't work. He won't try to use the puppies because he hadn't trained them or ask Annabelle because she'll find out. They demonstrate this on a Chihuahua named Carlos, just as they had on a poodle. While trying to fight off the monstrous dogs, the Angel Pups are turned monstrous, but not before apologizing to Charlie (though he tells them it wasn't their fault). Eventually, after the HeelBoy 2000 turns out not to work on Charlie or Itchy, Charlie promises not to abandon his responsibilities anymore. It turns out that Carface and Killer, who are "turning particular dogs evil," actually are Chief and Annabelle (respectively) in disguise, trying to teach Charlie the consequences of abusing authority, that the angels and their secret agents had also pretended to be evil, and that the three angels-in-training had been guardian angels all along. Having had to leave early, the Chief puts the three angel puppies in charge, to so much of Charlie's dismay that he goes inside the fake machine which, despite knowing doesn't work, Annabelle "operates" because it is "fun to watch." During this incident, Charlie is spun around and made to feel sick.

When a bag of dog food falls out from the back of a truck, one puppy finds it and decides to take it home, but so does another, and they both fight over it. When Charlie and Itchy see this, they tell them to stop, with Charlie threatening to take the bag for himself and Itchy otherwise. He begins to tell them a story about how he and Itchy first met, and when their friendship began.
