Fluke 1995 Hey what's up
guys. Today I'll show you a fantasy-drama film: "Fluke"! Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care!
The movie begins on an alley road behind a restaurant, where a tri-colored golden
retriever gives birth to three beige puppies and one brown puppy. They stay in the alley,
because the restaurant owner feeds them everyday until they grow up.
One unfaithful day, the Animal Control staff arrive at the alley to catch the
five dogs. Soon, they bring the five dogs to the Animal Center for adoption. Eventually,
the three beige puppies are successfully adopted, except the brown puppy, who's still in the cage.
The supervisor orders the staff to put the brown puppy to sleep, since no one's adopting
him. On the day of his schedule to the burner, the brown puppy escapes from his cage, right
after the staff opens the door. He whimpers as he tries to reach his caged mother dog in the cell;
but the staff is right behind him; so he runs out of the building to escape the impending doom.
He then goes to a nearby elementary school, where a student approaches him, and caresses
his ear. Upon feeling the touch of the student, a memory flashes in the brown puppy's mind. He
remembers a young boy, waving at him. At night, the brown puppy searches for a
place to settle. He shortly ends up in the slums, where a tramp named Bella,
warmly beckons him to come. Together, they sleep peacefully. While Bella slumbers, the brown puppy
stares at the ring on her hand, recalling a man proposing to a curly blonde woman.
The following day, Bella brings the brown puppy to the busy street, waiting for people to give
her money. Even though no one's giving them money, Bella keeps a positive outlook, and plays a little
nutshell game with the brown puppy. The brown puppy always guesses where the gem is hidden,
resulting in great exposure for them. Soon, passing strangers notice the brown puppy's
intelligence, so they leave money in Bella's can. One of the audiences' comments that it's only a
fluke, and Bella agrees that the brown puppy is indeed her Fluke. At night, Bella manages
to earn enough money to buy themselves some Chinese takeout, and then creates a collar
for the brown puppy with the name, Fluke. Bella falls ill in the coming days, until the
sickness spreads, killing her in the end. Now, poor Fluke is left alone on the street again.
The following day, a streetwise bully dog who prefers to name himself Rambo,
talks to him without barking, and invites him to a place to eat. Fluke asks first about Bella,
and Rambo explains to him that Bella had to move to another place, possibly heaven.
Together, Fluke and Rambo travel the street to search for food. On route, Rambo teaches
Fluke the proper way to pee like a dog. They continue, but Fluke falls off the fountain in
the park. Rambo tells him that dumping into a pool of water is the best way to remove their fleas.
Finally, they arrive at a hotdog stall in a market, and Rambo introduces their new master
and store vendor to Fluke. The vendor warmly welcomes them, and then feeds them hotdogs.
Afterward, the two dogs eventually bond together on an open field. Later, Rambo brings Fluke to
his real guardian, who owns a scrapyard. Rambo advises Fluke to allow the guardian to touch him,
so the guardian can let him stay in his scrapyard. He also tells Fluke
the best shades to sleep on in the scrapyard. Soon, Fluke and Rambo arrive at the scrapyard,
and the guardian giddily welcomes Fluke, since he's a very cute puppy. At night, Fluke dreams
about a car crash. He abruptly wakes up, and then asks Rambo if they've always been a dog, and not
a human. His question aggravates Rambo to act defensive. Rambo tells Fluke to forget about his
dream, and simply just sleep, since they have no use for them. Rambo eventually leaves Fluke to let
him sleep, without telling him a bedtime story. A year later, Fluke grows into a beautiful brown
dog. Fluke and Rambo discover a pastry truck on the road, filled with pies and cakes. While
Rambo enjoys a pie, Fluke recalls another memory upon seeing the wedding cake, where he sees the
curly-haired woman and the man getting married. They flee the truck, when the truck driver catches
them eating a pie. Next, they go to The vendor's food stall to get more food. As the vendor cooks
his order, a customer named Thug, steals the food. Fluke barks at Thug, because he's a bad
person overall. Thug then leaves with his order, and intentionally steps on Rambo's tail, provoking
Fluke to bite Thug's leg for hurting Rambo. Thug accuses The vendor of taking care of violent
dogs in the market; but The vendor defends the dogs, and tells him to leave them alone,
because his presence is scaring the dogshit out of the dogs.
Soon Rambo and Fluke leave the market, and roam out on the street for some dog fun. Just then,
Fluke stops in front of a newspaper stand, and stares at a magazine. The magazine cover
portrays a business owner named Jeff, who released an expensive car part on
the market. Fluke experiences another flashback upon seeing Jeff's face. He
remembers Jeff talking to a man, who angrily shattered the expensive car part on the floor.
On the same day, Thug reports Rambo and Fluke to the guardian for biting him. Fortunately,
the guardian defends his dog, and says they won't attack unless provoked. Besides,
the two dogs are properly maintained with their anti-rabies shots. However, Thug still
threatens the guardian to report his dogs to the Animal Control Center, if he doesn't pay him
compensation for the bite. The guardian then is forced to pay Thug a fee just to make him leave.
Thug then departs upon receiving the payment, leaving the guardian mad at the two dogs. Rambo
escapes and deserts Fluke, while Fluke stays behind and suffers from a punishment. At night,
the guardian ties Fluke to a vehicle, and lets the rain pour down on him. Just then,
another memory pops into his mind, showing the curly-haired woman giving birth to a baby,
who grew up into a handsome boy. while Fluke idles in a convertible car,
he hallucinates a telephone number on a car plate. Fluke goes to the guardian's house,
and dials the number himself. The telephone rings until a woman's voice answers the phone, revealing
the curly-haired woman in his dream is real. The guardian catches Fluke lurking in his office,
causing Fluke to escape at the back door. The guardian answers the call, and tells the
curly-haired woman that she called them, because it's impossible for his dog to use the telephone.
Afterward, Rambo and Fluke roam the street, and Fluke tells Rambo that they were people
who had a family before. Fluke wants to see his old family, which keeps appearing in his dreams;
but Rambo is unhappy with his wish. Rambo walks out and leaves Fluke alone.
Fluke chases after Rambo, but Fluke is surprised to see Thug anticipating his appearance. Thug
orders his men to capture and deliver Fluke to the cosmetic company they work at.
There, the beauty technician uses Fluke as a test subject for beauty products.
Throughout the test, Fluke recalls a car crash that resulted in the death of the
man, who he kept seeing in his memory. Meanwhile, the technician is happy with
the results of what Fluke portrays. Just then, Rambo breaks into the laboratory,
attacks the technician to knock him down, and saves every captured animal in the room. Thug
leaves to call for the guard; but he sees all animals have escaped upon his return.
Thug then rushes to the shattered window, and sees Rambo and Fluke are still around.
He orders the guard beside him to shoot at the dogs; but the guard refuses. Thug then
impulsively grabs the gun and shoots. Fluke and Rambo luckily escape from the
laboratory, and go to a nearby lake. Rambo drinks from the water as he falls tired.
Fluke then notices that Thug has shot Rambo in the back; but Rambo endures the wound just
to guide Fluke out of the premise. Fluke knows Rambo's about to die;
so he begs him to stay with him. However, Rambo can't make it anymore. Therefore, Rambo admits
something to Fluke during his final moments. It turns out, Rambo was a sailor when he was
previously a human. His brother was the exact Vendor, whom he returned to when he became a dog.
Rambo enjoys being a dog; but he sometimes misses the salty sea breeze. Fortunately,
Rambo is glad to be friends with Fluke, hoping that they meet again in his next life.
Alone, Fluke decides to seek the curly-haired woman and the boy he sees in his dreams. The
curly-haired woman is his wife, and the boy is their son. The man in his dreams is Fluke himself,
when he was still a human named Thomas. Fluke remembers his son's school, so he
visits him, and waits for his class dismissal. The school hours end, and Fluke searches for
his son in the crowd of students. He eventually recognizes his son and wife in the parking lot.
Fluke pounces onto the car door, startling the wife completely. she shoos him away, but the son
convinces his mother that Fluke seems harmless. she then ignores Fluke, and drives the car away
as they travel home. Fluke chases after them until they arrive home. Fluke persistently barks at the
front door to attract their attention; but the wife maintains a cold demeanor towards Fluke.
Fortunately, Fluke manages to earn his son's sympathy, who begs his mother to keep Fluke
temporarily, until they find his original guardian. the wife loves her son, so she
eventually accepts Fluke into their house, where they even bathe him together on the front lawn.
At night, the son plays with his miniature toy soldiers in the living room, and Fluke hides
one of his toys under the couch. When the son finds the toy, he remembers his late father,
who used to hide his toys too. It's bedtime, and Fluke sneaks out of
the laundry room to visit his son in his bedroom, and tucks him under the blanket. He then lastly
goes to his wife's room, and sleeps beside her. The next day, Fluke spends time with his wife and
son, more than he ever did when he was still a workaholic father. He also tries to show his wife
that he's her dead husband; but she only gets sadder whenever she remembers her true love.
At night, Jeff comes to visit Thomas' wife and son. His mere presence provokes Fluke
to attack him violently, forcing the wife and Jeff to take him outside the house.
Jeff reports Fluke to the Animal Control Center, even though the boy is against it.
Fluke tries to enter the house as he barks constantly at Jeff. the wife
can't help but wonder what's gotten with Fluke all of a sudden. Suddenly,
the cops arrive at the house to catch Fluke; but Fluke hides behind the bushes to evade them.
It's a rainy midnight, and the son sneaks outside to bring Fluke into his room. Then,
he overhears his mother and Jeff talking inside her room. the mother doesn't want to
bring Fluke into a dog pound because of their notorious reputation, and most importantly,
she cares about her son's decision. The next morning, Fluke follows Jeff into
their company building, where he sneaks and evades the passing employees working inside. Just then,
Fluke enters his former office, overhearing Jeff planning a date with his wife.
While Jeff leaves his office that's adjacent to Thomas's office, Fluke remembers his
human self Thomas, sitting on the office chair. Suddenly, Jeff barges into the room upon hearing
the ringing telephone on Thomas's desk. Jeff answers the call, and hears the wife worriedly
crying. She briefs that her son is missing, because he's busy searching for Fluke; so she
pleads to him to help her search for her son. Fluke suspects Jeff as his murderer, based on
the memories he recalls with Jeff in them. Jeff was the last person he saw when he was a human,
and now he wants to steal his family too. So that night, Jeff drives quickly to the wife's
house, while completely oblivious to Fluke's presence in the backseat. Fluke attacks Jeff
to cause an accident, which is the same way Jeff allegedly killed Thomas. Fluke believes he finally
avenged himself, until a new revelation appears. Instantly, Fluke receives another flashback about
the real car accident. His human self, Thomas, had a fight with Jeff about their product release.
Jeff walked out of the building, because Thomas denied his release of the car part on the market.
Jeff rode his car, and Thomas chased after him on the road. Jeff tried to calm down Thomas, as their
car speed increased every second. Thomas missed the upcoming truck in front of him, forcing him to
swerve off the road, resulting in the car hitting a tree. Jeff immediately stopped his car to save
Thomas from death; but it was too late. Jeff cried over the unexpected death of his best friend.
At the present time, Fluke instantly regrets hurting Jeff, upon realizing
that he's always been a real friend to him, because it's all Thomas's fault in the end.
Fluke limps towards Jeff's car, and licks the wounded and dazed Jeff on the driver's seat.
Jeff wakes up, and stares at Fluke, finally realizing it's Thomas himself. Jeff remains
free from grudge, and even asks Fluke to look for his son, because the snow starts pouring. However,
Fluke can't leave Jeff alone while wounded; so he barks at the passing driver to alert him about the
crash. The passing driver helps Jeff, allowing Fluke to run free and search for his son.
Meanwhile, the wife deduces that her son is at Thomas's graveyard due to his
drawing. While searching in the words, Fluke also senses his son is at his graveyard.
Fluke arrives near his son first, where they huddle together to keep themselves warm against
the freezing snow. the wife eventually reaches the graveyard, and breaks open the gate. she
brings her son inside the car, and opens the heater for him. the son recovers his strength,
and tells her his vision of Fluke telling him not to get sad, just because he needs to leave them.
the wife wants to keep Fluke for her son. She then looks at Fluke, and approaches him near
Thomas's graveyard. Fluke digs up the snow to reveal the engraved epitaph "Forever",
at the bottom of the tombstone. She finally realizes Fluke's identity is her beloved husband,
because Thomas used to say forever when he was alive. Heartbroken and relieved,
she let Fluke go, watching him dashing away from the graveyard as the snow pours over them.
The movie ends with Fluke finally accepting the truth that he's now a dog, who needs to be happy
for his wife and son to enjoy more worthwhile days with Jeff. His time as a human is over,
and it's time for him to cherish the days fully unlike before. One day,
Fluke happily reunites with Rambo, who is now reincarnated as a squirrel. Together,
the two best friends share with one another the new wisdom they have learned as animals.
