The dog ends up giving Ann's father a nip on his ankles, causing a superficial wound before the dog runs off. As an off the cuff funny comment, Donald mentions the word "rabid" which sends both Lew and Ann into a fit of hypochondriac related hysteria. Lew is certain his developing symptoms are rabies related, while Ann can only think of her father's welfare even at the expense of her career as she stays with him, missing an important audition in the process. Despite the fact that Lew having rabies is in anecdotal terms a million to one, the possibly rabid dog story gains a life of its own. Because of it, Ann's apartment becomes Grand Central Station with among others the media hungry doctor, the animal control inspector, Ann's agent, a Newsview photographer, a messenger delivering the rabies vaccine, and a gaggle of young boys with small brown and white dogs who want Donald's offered reward money for finding *the* dog parading through her apartment all at the same time.
