Sweetie is a villain from the Canadian children's show PAW Patrol, and the main antagonist of the Mission PAW episodes. She is the pet pup of the Princess of Barkingburg, who has ambitions to rule the kingdom. She also has a robotic toy frog named Busby, which serves as her minion. She is voiced by Anya Cooke in the US.
Episodes
Mission PAW: Quest for the Crown
Sweetie first appears near the beginning of the episode when she tries to grab the crown of Barkingburg, only to be stopped by the princess. She then tries to get the crown again with the help of Busby when the princess and the earl leave, but is interrupted by Chase arriving at the castle.
At night, while the princess and the earl are asleep, Sweetie uses a toy mouse to lure the royal kittens towards Chase, who has been tasked with guarding the crown, making him sneeze (due to him being allergic to cats) and get knocked into the security lasers around the crown from the force of the sneeze, triggering the alarm. While Chase is trying to turn off the alarm, Sweetie takes advantage of the distraction to use her "Vacuum Snatcher" (an extendable claw with a grabber hose) to grab the crown from afar. After Chase regains his sense of smell, he picks up on Sweetie's scent and tracks her down, realizing that she's the one who stole the crown when he sees her wearing it. Sweetie confesses to Chase and reveals that she's going to frame him for stealing the crown. Chase then calls Ryder on his bow tie Pup-Tag to inform him of Sweetie's guilt, but she takes it away from him before he says her name, and then opens a trapdoor underneath Chase through which he falls down to the dungeon. Sweetie then goes to tell the princess and earl that Chase is the thief.
When the rest of the PAW Patrol arrive at the castle to find the crown and prove Chase's innocence, she realizes that Chase managed to inform Ryder of the crown's theft before she took away his bow tie Pup-Tag, and goes to hide it in the mouth of a dragon statute on the castle tower. When Ryder finds the Pup-Tag's signal and heads to the tower with the pups, Sweetie makes the suits of armor in the corridor fall over, blocking their path and forcing Rubble to use his shovel to clear them away. Unbeknownst to them however, Sweetie was spying on them through a painting on the wall, and goes back to the tower, locks the door and drops Chase's bow tie Pup-Tag into the moat to hide it. When Marshall forces the door open with his Hydro Launcher, Sweetie uses a parachute to float down to a lower floor of the castle before Ryder and the pups can see her. She then goes to show the crown to the princess and the earl, pretending to have recovered it from Chase. Sweetie then asks to be allowed to wear the crown as a reward, and the Princess agrees under the belief that she is just playing. Sweetie, now seeing herself as the Queen of Barkingburg, asks the castle butler to bring her a hundred hamburgers. When the pups get Chase out of the dungeon, he reveals to them that Sweetie is the thief, and they go to confront her. She orders for the guards to be summoned, but Chase uses his bow tie Pup-Tag (which had been recovered from the moat by Zuma) to play back a recorded video of Sweetie confessing to the crown theft to the princess and the earl, after which the princess scolds her and orders her to give her back her crown, but Sweetie escapes in her roadster. The PAW Patrol chase her in their vehicles, but she converts her roadster into a hoverboard and flies away, so Ryder orders Skye to go after her on her sky-cycle. Sweetie tries to lose Skye by turning her hoverboard upside-down, but it causes the crown to fall off her head. She tries to catch it by unbuckling her belt but falls from her vehicle as a result. Chase uses his landing pad to stop her from falling to her death, while Skye catches the crown. Exhausted and surrounded, Sweetie then admits defeat.
As punishment for her theft of the crown and lying, Sweetie is made to stay in her doghouse surrounded with an iron fence that is too high for her to climb over.
Mission PAW: Royally Spooked
In this episode, Sweetie is trying to chase the princess and the earl out of the castle by using a remote control device hidden in Busby to control the suits of armor there so she could have the castle to herself, and the PAW Patrol come to solve the mystery of the supposed "haunting". Eventually, Ryder sees Sweetie using the remote control and orders Skye to take it from her. During the ensuing struggle, Busby's helmet comes off and the remote control chip inside it falls to the floor and breaks, causing the suits of armor to go out of control. The princess and the PAW Patrol escape through a secret passage to the backyard of the castle, but Sweetie stays inside and puts the castle on lockdown. She then tries to command the suits of armor to stop moving, but can't because the remote control chip is broken, so she calls Ryder using her pup-tag and pleads with him to help her. He agrees, but tells her that she has to unlock the castle first, but she can't because the suits of armor are blocking her path to the controls, so Ryder asks Rubble to use his mini-miner to break down the door and rescue Sweetie. After she is rescued, she tells the princess that she was just kidding around, and although she isn't mad at her, she still sends her to her doghouse as punishment again.
Personality
Contrary to her name, Sweetie is sneaky and antagonistic, but she can also put on a sweet, innocent and cute facade to make others give her what she wants. She wants to be the Queen of Barkingburg at all cost, even going so far as stealing the royal crown to accomplish this. She also dislikes being treated as a "common pup". She has an evil laugh that ends in a snort, and she speaks in a British accent.
Sweetie however has a weakness in overconfidence, as shown when her reign as the Queen of Barkingburg was cut short when Chase exposed her plan to the princess and the earl.
Powers and abilities
Like the members of the PAW Patrol, Sweetie also has a pup-pack; hers is shown to contain an extendable claw (which she calls the "Vacuum Snatcher") that can be used to grab things from afar, as well as a parachute. Her robotic toy frog, Busby, also functions as a remote-controlled minion that she can control with her pup-tag. She owns a purple dragster that can also convert into a hovercraft.
Trivia
- Sweetie is the first pup in the series to be an antagonist, as well as the second animal overall (or seventh if one counts the Kitten Catastrophe Crew as separate antagonists) to be an antagonist. She is also the third female pup in the series overall, after Skye and Everest.
- Although the moving suits of armor in Mission PAW: Royally Spooked were remote controlled by Sweetie, it is unknown how she made the paintings move.
- It is unknown how Sweetie got a pup-pack and pup-tag of her own, seeing as they are invented by Ryder.
